016. Pride (Set in the Desert AU direct continuation of Courage.)

Sokka watched as Azula talked animatedly with her family. In the week the two stayed in the Fire Nation capital, the former lightening-bender grew closer and closer with the family she had hated for so long. The water-tribesman felt a great deal of pride knowing that he had helped unite a family that had been so violently torn apart.

"And then the massive saber-tooth moose-lion just started licking Sokka! Like it was some kind of dog welcoming its master!" Azula proclaimed, resulting in laughter. "And get this, once the thing stopped, he called it 'foo-foo cuddly poops' and hugged the thing! I thought I was going to die of laughter that day."

Everyone shared another round of laughter at the water-tribesman's antics. Although he was well into adulthood, he still could act like a child sometimes. Sokka even joined in on the laughter, after all, it was an amusing story, he would never have guessed that he would run into that little saber-tooth moose-lion cub ever again.

"Well, I think we should be going now," Azula said sadly as she stood up from her seat. "Sokka promised to show me the Ba Sing Se Zoo, then we're heading to Gaoling."

"It's a shame you have to leave," Ursa said, hugging her daughter goodbye. "Be sure to write to us whenever you can. And you," she indicated to Sokka. "You better take good care of her, or else."

Sokka laughed nervously. "I'll make sure she's perfectly taken care of... scouts honor?" Ursa was pleased with the response. After everyone said their goodbyes, Sokka and Azula began their trek to the Earth Kingdom capital.

"So," Sokka started once they reached the dock. "That wasn't so bad, now was it."

Azula smiled softly as she thought back to the week of bonding with her family. "No, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was..."

She reached her hand out and interlaced her fingers with his own. She looked into Sokka's eyes and smiled. "Thanks again for convincing me into doing this."

Sokka simply smiled in return and together they boarded the ship to the Earth Kingdom.

017. Lust (Set immediately after Desert)

Sokka walked out of the bar of the small town. He looked around the streets to find that Azula, or as she preferred Lei Lien, was nowhere to be seen, so following the bartenders advice, he headed to the border of the desert and the forest.

Sure enough, the traveling scholar found a rather modest hut big enough to facilitate one or two people. There was a fenced in area that contained a few ostrich-horses as well a couple of farm animals. From what he could tell, the entire back area had been made to facilitate the growth of vegetables.

After surveying the outside long enough, Sokka approached the door and proceeded to knock. He heard some shuffling coming from inside as well as a muffled, "be there in a second!"

'Lei Lien' swiftly opened the door. She was surprised to find Sokka standing there. "What are you doing here?" she asked.

"Well, I was just wondering if we could talk more," he answered nervously. "I mean, I just wanna know what you've been doing since you left the Fire Nation, and maybe I could tell you what everyone else has been up to."

"Why would I want to know what YOUR friends have been up to," Azula inquired.

"Aren't you curious what Mai and Ty Lee have been up to?" Sokka replied.

Azula seemed to stare at the Water-tribesman for a long moment before moving to the side and allow him entrance. Once Sokka was in her home, she closed the door behind him. The young man took a moment to observe Azula's living space.

"Pretty quaint place you have here," Sokka pointed out.

Azula just walked past him and into the small kitchen area. "Would you like some rice wine?" she asked her guest.

Sokka raised an eye brow. "No thanks, it's much too early to be drinking for me," he stated.

Azula shrugged. "Suit yourself," she said before guzzling the bottle, causing Sokka to furrow his brow.

"That's not very healthy," he pointed out as he made his way to the sitting area.

'Lei Lien' just scoffed at the warning and sat down on a cot. "What do you care," she muttered darkly, causing Sokka to frown. "Alright, so what has the circus freak and miss apathy doing these days?" She asked sardonically.

"If that's how you view your friends I'd hate to see how you view your enemies..." Sokka took a moment to reevaluate what he had just said. "Never mind... well, Mai and Zuko got married and now have a daughter. Mai has really gotten into the whole 'Fire Lady' deal."

"Ty Lee has been with the Kiyoshi warriors ever since the war ended. At first they all helped rebuild the smaller villages that were attacked in the Earth Kingdom, nowadays Ty Lee helps train the new recruits with Suki."

"Suki?" Azula smirked at the recognition of the name. "I noticed that she's not with you, is everything okay between you two." Sokka just frowned. "We broke up a couple of years back."

The news seemed to make Azula happy. "Oh that's just too bad, I guess I'm not the only one who didn't have a 'Happily Ever After'," she mocked bitterly.

Sokka stood up abruptly and turned to leave. "I should never have even bothered coming here," he stated. "I've got better things to do than to be mocked by some pathetic, drunken has-been." Azula stood to her feet and glared at the older man.

"Who are you calling pathetic, you sorry excuse of a man," she shouted! Sokka looked at the woman indignantly, the fire in her eyes that had once been doused now reignited. "I don't need your pity! I lived these past ten years of solitude just fine without anyone's pity!"

"Oh really?" Sokka questioned, derisively. "Because the barkeep sure did sound sorry for you when he told me about when you first came here, as nothing but a penniless beggar."

"I was no beggar you ignorant peasant!" Azula retorted.

"Self-righteous cow-hippo!" Sokka countered.

"Indignant boar-q-pine!"

"Spiteful pig-cow!"

"Feebleminded buzzard wasp!"

"Thickheaded trollop!" Sokka yelled. Azula's eyes went wide at the name. "I'll show you a trollop, you banjaxed gigolo!" she shouted as she lunged at the taller man, her hands wrapping around his neck.

Unfortunately the force of the lunge caused Sokka to fall onto his back with the woman straddling his waist, her hands still gripping onto his windpipe.

Sokka wrapped his hands her wrists causing Azula's grip to weaken. "What's the matter? Did I... strike a nerve, Princess!?" he choked out before rolling over, pinning the woman to the ground.

"Now who's on top!?" Sokka mocked as he hovered over the woman. Azula responded by wrapping her lithe legs around his waist and squeezing with all of her might, causing her opponent to release one of her hands.

She reared her free hand back and punched Sokka on the side of his head, causing him to fall to the side. Azula quickly stood up and proceeded to drop down onto the man's abdomen elbow first.

Sokka gave a grunt of pain as he gripped his sore stomach. When he rose to his feet he saw Azula rushing at him with a wooden chair. She swung the offending piece of furniture at Sokka only to have him step out of the way. The chair splintered into wood chips as it impacted the ground.

When Azula turned to face her enemy, Sokka quickly wrapped his arms around the woman, pinning her arms to her side, and lifted her into the air. "Give up," he demanded as he squeezed the woman tightly. "I've been fighting for years without bending, there's no way you could beat me!"

Through the pain Azula simply glared painfully at the tall man, "I'll never... yield... to you..." she groaned out. She could feel her chest pounding painfully against his own. His strong muscles preventing her from moving, his gorgeous eyes boring into her own.

She saw a spark in his eyes, a spark not so different from that of a fire-bender, unyielding, determined, demanding. She suddenly found herself pressing her lips violently against his own, her tongue prodding, tasting, memorizing, savoring the tantalizing feel of the inside of his mouth.

Caught off guard, Sokka felt a sudden pain when Azula kicked him in the side, causing him to release her and stumble back a few steps. They were both slouching forward and breathing heavily. Sokka noticed that the one of Azula's shoulders was exposed, her robe was loose and on the verge of falling open.

Azula then darted towards him again. She leapt onto him, her arms wrapping around his neck and her legs around his waist, and once again she began to kiss the water-tribesman hungrily.

Sokka's arms circled the woman to hold her in place as he stumbled back against the wall. This time, he returned the kiss; his tongue wrestling with Azula's for dominance, and just like their fight neither of them would submit.

Completely lost in their lust, Sokka moved one hand to Azula's exposed thigh and began to massage it roughly as he turned and pinned the smaller woman against the wall. He could feel the former fire-bender's hand rubbing his chest underneath his gi, her other hand massaging his scalp as she removed his hair band.

Tired with simply kissing the woman's lips, Sokka lifted the woman up by lifting up his thigh, giving him perfect access to Azula's neck. He began to suckle and nip at the woman's exposed flesh, causing her to moan loudly.

Fed up with being the submissive, Azula kicked the wall causing Sokka to land onto a nearby table, breaking the legs in the process. She sat up on her knees and looked at Sokka. His hair was strewn about, he was breathing heavily, and most importantly, she could feel his arousal. She could also feel the cool air rushing past her exposed breasts, her robe now around her waist.

"This won't be quick, this won't be entirely painless, and I will not stop until I am satisfied," Azula stated as she ripped open Sokka's shirt, his chest heaving. "The same goes for you," Sokka replied.

Their lips crashed together once again. The hut was filled with the sounds of their passion, moans and groans of pain and pleasure. Their lust the only thing either of the warriors were concerned with and would not stop until pacified and exhaustion claimed them.

When Azula awoke the next morning, she found herself wrapped protectively in the man's arms. She frowned when she felt her head throb accompanied by the strange fluttery feeling in her stomach. She noticed the room was completely ruined, broken chairs and potted plants strewn about, the smell of sex still permeated the air.

Still exhausted, she rested her head back down on Sokka's chest and went back to sleep. Surprisingly, it was quite the comfortable pillow.

018. Envy (Same universe Blood (Slightly before))

Azula stood there pinned to the wall, unable to really fight back with the Eclipse still present. She was attempting to delay the avatar's team by taunting them. She had picked a relatively simple target; the one named Sokka.

He was so easy to rile up. Simply mentioning the name of the Kiyoshi warrior was enough to bring him to a rage. He demanded she tell him where this 'Suki' was, what she did with her and whatnot. The young man seemed so intent on rescuing that girl, no matter how hopeless the situation was.

Azula was suddenly envious. Oh how she dreamed of finding someone to love her like that. To risk everything just for her. She steeled herself and began to mock this Sokka's hopelessness.

That's when she felt it. Her eyes went wide as she looked down. His sword was buried to the hilt, right into her left lung. She began wheezing as she felt the life drain out of her. "You'll never find your precious 'Suki' now-"

Everything went dark for her as her eyes slowly closed.
