Its Who I Am!
Hi Guys, I have JUST updated! please enjoy!
"What do you want JP?" she said fiercely, "awww, that's not a nice way to talk to your boyfriend-:" "Ex" Kat cut in "Whatever, Ex, who's this?" he said pointing to Zuko, "A friend, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to know you so we're gonna go! K bye." She grabbed Zuko's hand and started marching off but JP grabbed her arm and yanked her back, "Your not going anywhere you little . Zuko stared in utter disbelief, then he got angry, "You will show proper respect to a woman you imbecile!" JP turned to him "If you lay a hand on my girlfriend I swear I will not let you live it down!" Zuko stared dangerously at JP, Kat had, had enough, she yanked out of JP's grip and kicked him were she knew it would hurt, JP yelped in pain but Kat just grabbed Zuko's shirt and pulled him towards the car, Kats puppy prancing behind them.
"WHO IN GODS NAME WAS THAT!" Zuko yelled as soon as they were safely in the car. "My Ex, Jimmy Peters, we call him JP and he-:" Kat cut short and started crying, no not just tears but massive sobs, Zuko had no idea how to comfort a woman in times of need. He patted her slightly before pulling away. 'I saw why she broke up with him!' he thought.
They drove back to Kats house in total silence. Once they arrived back at home Kat went to her room and started pulling out blankets and pillows. She set up a bed on the floor of her room, after she had made up a bed she went and started cooking dinner. She placed the lemon rind with the lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil, heated up the water for five minutes before placing the pasta in the water. She mixed the pasta with the sauce before placing it equally into two China bowls. She came out with the food to find Zuko just staring at the TV as the little people in the pictures moved. "How does this work?" he asked fascinated, Kat couldn't help giggling, "Its called TV, its when humans act not as themselves but as characters from stories and so forth. My father works in commercials, I'll show you sometime!"
They sat down together at the large dining room table, enjoying the food and talking about the modern and old day life. Zuko learned how woman had more rights and could go out with a man without always having to beg for fathers permission, Kat learned how back in Zuko's time, the world was divided into four nations 'Earth, Fire, Air and Water!' Zuko learned that people could do amazing things without people telling them to! Kat loved having someone to talk to, she felt she could open up to him without feeling self-conscious. Since her breakup with JP Kat had always been by herself, her friends had left her when they found JP was up for grabs. Kat didn't have that good a relationship with her Dad, he always seemed to distance her whenever she tried to talk with him. Her Mom was always helpful, she would listen to her every trouble and every need. She knew she could trust her with every little secret.
When Kat told Zuko about her mother and father, he felt he could relate to her in almost every way. His father had always distanced him but his mother had listened to him and taught him how to deal in time's that were hard. That was until she was ripped away from him.
By half past ten they couldn't keep a conversation going any longer, so Kat found Zuko PJ's and they went to bed. Kat was smiling beneath her covers. Tingling feelings kept coming whenever she thought of Zuko lying right beside her. Finally sleep came and she drifted.
Kat dreamed back to the fire nation dreams. This time she saw the first boy she had seen, the blue arrow bright in the fire lit brightness. He was with friends, a girl with brown hair. two pieces hung on either side as if clipped back. She and another, boy, were dressed in Eskimo clothing. 'How odd' she thought, I thought this place was surrounded by fire' then she saw Zuko, he was shooting balls of flame as if trying to kill the young arrow head boy! 'why would Zuko want to kill someone, he isn't a murderer right?' or…!
Zuko was dreaming again, he was home, well not home but back on the ship, he saw the Avatar escaping him, he started to attack as he had been trained. The Avatar and his friends defended themselves bravely, Zuko was impressed, Slightly. He turned his head to see Kat standing not so far from him. He saw her crying but just as he tried to reach out to her he fell back into reality.
Kat and Zuko sat at the table, a plate of uneaten toast in front of them both. Kat broke the silence "I had another dream last night, you were in it!" she said, she saw his teeth clench and his eyes turned cold. "Have you ever killed someone?" she whispered, He nodded, "Why?" her voice broke, "Because its my duty." He replied. "Its your duty to kill someone? Its no-one's duty to kill another, for one to kill another equals you to become more hard, more callous! (Callous means hard and stern- cruel). "Its who I am!" he said.
