Hello :D Ella again, I just want to say that when I said every pairing I've heard of so expect controversial ones, I meant it, and thus here I am warning you that the next pairing is Zucest so don't like, don't read. If you didn't like the chapter for any reason other then the pairing feel free to tell me why, I'd love to hear from you, if you simply don't like the pairing then I don't care so don't tell me about it. Also I have no beta so sorry if there are any mistakes :D

Thanks to cm27815, JillRG, and a really big thanks to XMiSsxCrAZyX for the lovely comments :D

Also if you have any suggestions of pairings you would like to see feel free to tell me and I'll see what I can do :D

I feet that Zuko may seem a little OOC in this but I find it very hard to write a pairing like this without anyone seeming OOC and I really wanted to try and keep Azula in character. Don't ask me why blue fire or lightning won't light a candle though. I think it would be very like someone as arrogant as Azula to forget the basics once they learn something they believe to be more powerful. Tell me what you think of it :D

Zuko/Azula

No Rest For The Wicked.

It was no use, Azula finally decided after two hours of lying in the dark, she knew sleep would probably elude her for the rest of the night. She sighed to herself in the darkened room and slowly sat up against her pillows. She moved her hand in the direction of her candle and went to light it with her bending, a small shot of lightning blasted across the room, dissipating in the air before it reached a wall.

She frowned, that hadn't gone as she had intended; the candle was singed but still remained unlit. She tried again but to no avail, frustrated she shot her blue fire in a large burst that practically destroyed one side of her wall, but still the candle remained in darkness.

She resorted to the old ways of fire; red, hot and angry, fueled by her frustration, which only doubled when her supposed red fire came out blue, not lighting the candle.

Her room was soon in tatters and smoking but still the candle did not burn. Her eyes were fiery with fury, her hands clenched to fists, her teeth grinding, and her long black hair thrown about her face, neck and back, sticking to her forehead with slicked beads of sweat.

A light laugh sounded in the corner, she had not noticed anyone come in while in her frenzy. She turned ready to incinerate this person who dared mock her when he clapped lightly and said, "Oh, how the princess of the fire nation has fallen, she can't even remember how to use her true fire any more."

She knew that voice, and it was only confirmed when he brought a small ball of fire to life in his hands, illuminating his half scared face under his new mop of black hair.

He grinned at her in the firelight. "When did you get here, brother dearest?" She added sarcastically and bitterly at being found incompetent by her fool of a brother. "And I did not forget."

Zuko laughed again and gestured with his free hand to the room around them, "Really? What exactly did you do all this for then? Fun?" He chuckled and walked closer to her, "Face it princess, my dear sister Azula... you've lost it." A smirk adorned his face with these words. "But don't worry, I can help you remember," He said as she glared at him in the dim light his small fire provided.

He walked right up to her, grabbed her hand and then pulled her to a stand, capturing her waist in his arms and pulling her in close to him. "Zuzu, what the hell do you think you're do-" She started to protest but was cut off as he claimed her lips with his own, catching her off guard.

It wasn't sweet or that nice, really it wasn't about kissing at all, it was fury, fierceness, fire, and heat right from his lips to hers. It set a fire blazing in the pit of her belly, a beast was awoken within her, it roared so loudly so wondered how she could have ever forgotten.

"You forgot, real fire needs passion." He said as he pulled away and shot his fire straight at her candle, which burst into light immediately. "Goodnight Princess." He simply said as he let go of her waist and walked away from her. He left her room and she could hear his footsteps echo in the hall outside her door.

She let herself fall back onto her bed and put her hands to her lips and traced where his had meet hers, then she put her hands up in front of her and created a ball of red fire, raging, furious, but most importantly passionate red fire.

Letting the ball of flames dissipate into the air she watched her candle burn with the bright red light of his flame, with a small smile upon her face, Azula, princess of the Fire Nation thought that just maybe she could fall asleep after all.
