Chapter Five: No one will listen
Back at the village in a tavern Azula was remaining about todays events
"Who dose he think he is, That boy has tangled with the wrong women. No one say's no to me" Jet came up to her with a mug ale
"Darn right Azula, But you should forget about what happened" he said encouragingly.
Azula eye's fumed at those words "have you forgotten I was publicly humiliated" Azula said throwing her mug into the fire "it's more then I can bare" she finished.
"Come oh Azula you got pull your self together" Jet said nudging her in the shoulder "you partially the town beauty here, Men want you and women want to be you"
Jet explained gesturing his arm to all the people in the tavern. Azula smiled at this, Jet was right all men wanted her because of skills in combat, beauty and cunning. She shouldn't let Kai rejection to her proposal bring her down. What other women could sweep his heart other then her?
"If thats true then why did he reject me" she thought.
Suddenly the tavern door flew open and Mai stumbled in covered in snow
"Please help me" she cried.
Everyone stopped what they where doing and put down there drinks. They where all wondering what was going on with Mai. She looked as pale as the snow and tho she hadn't slept in days.
"She got my son locked up in a dungeon, We have to move there's not a minute to lose" Mai said but everyone looked at her as tho she had gone insane.
Azula was curious as to what Mai meant "Slow down Mai. Who's got Kai locked in a dungeon".
Mai ran up to her and said "A beast a horrible, monstrous beast".
This was too much for every one, They all started laughing. Mai realised she wasn't going to get any help here. Half of the town already think's she crazy, She then left the tavern with there laughter following her.
"Crazy Mai, she always good for a laugh" said one of the men at the bar.
This statement got Azula thinking. If she couldn't get Kai accept her hand she could conger up a way into making him into doing so, everyone knew that his Mother was insane.
"Jet do you still know the warden of the asylum" Azula asked,
"Yes why?" he asked.
She then whispered into his ear. What she said made him grin with insanity. Outside the tavern Mai staggered around in the street in sadness for the lost of her son and that no one would help her get him back.
"Why won't any one listen to me" she said aloud.
She then fell on all fours and tears started to fall on to the snow.
