WITH AZULA AND THE OTHERS

"How do we know that this is the right ship?" Asked Ty Lee, waiting at the docks with the other girls, the ship no far away.

"Because there were reports of a silver haired man on the deck of the ship." Said Azula. "How many silver haired men do you know?" Asked Azula, pointing out Senshi's unique hair color.

"What are we going to do when he gets here?" Asked June. She was hiding it, but she was actually excited to meet this guy. She'd heard quite a bit from the other girls.

"We're taking him back to the Fire Nation." Said Azula.

"What about Zuko?" Asked Mai. He was the main reason she even came. Sure, she considered Senshi one of her few friends, and a close one at that, but he wasn't Zuko.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Said Azula. "We'll have Senshi help us find him."

"But, what if Senshi doesn't come?" Asked Ty Lee.

"Don't be silly." Said Azula, crossing her arms. "The Fire Nation is his home."

"What if he's... Changed?" Asked Ty Lee.

"He promised that he would never change, unless I wanted him to." Said Azul, remembering the conversation they had so long ago.

"Unfortunately, Princess, that's not the way the world works." June cut in. "Everyone changes at some point in time, be it for better or worse, you don't know until shit hits the wall." Mai nodded her head, agreeing with the bounty hunters words.

"We'll find out when he gets here." Said Azula, looking for a way to end the conversation. She didn't want to talk about this. It was making her depressed.

WITH SENSHI AND THE GROUP

"Do we have everything?" Asked Senshi. The ship was closing in on the Earth Kingdom. Senshi was prepared, having his agent clothes on, along with the bone mask strapped to the side of his head. Kikyo held his Odachi, along with her large cleaver. Iori stood beside Senshi. Ever since their little "Sparring match" They've been like best friends.

"We're all ready for your command." Said Kiara.

"No problem." Said Rox, standing behind them. Cedric just slammed his fist over his heart, in a salute of sorts.

Moments later, the ship makes land. The group of six got off the ship, and were about to make their way to town, before a knife struck right in front of Senshi's foot. It looked very familiar to the young prince. Then, the memory of that knife, like its edge, cut deep into his mind. He remembered training with throwing that knife, just a few years ago.

"Shit." Senshi said simply. "Run! NOW!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, taking off as fast as he could.

"GET BACK HERE!" Shouted a younger girl, chasing after Senshi with obvious anger.

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET HERE!?" Shouted Senshi, running for his life as Azula threw sapphire blue fireballs at him.

"I HIRED A BOUNTY HUNTER!" Shouted Azula. "NOW GET BACK HERE SO I CAN KICK YOUR ASS!"

BACK WITH THE GROUP

"What is that about?" Rox asked out loud.

"Sensen has some 'splainin' to do." Said Ty Lee, hanging upside down from a roof. This scared the shit of Rox. He ducked to the ground, and glared at the young acrobat.

"How many more of you are there?" Asked Rox. Ty Lee giggled, and held up two fingers. That's when a knife came flying at Rox, but Iori caught it, along with five others that were directed at him. Mai frowned. This man had incredible physical abilities. Who was he?

"That was rather rude." Said Iori, dropping the knives to the ground. Ty Lee dropped from the building and walked up to the group. She looked up at Iori's hat, and started laughing. There was a knife sticking out of it. Iori sighed, and took off his hat, pulling the knife out of it and throwing the blade back at Mai, whom caught it easily.

"The name's Iori Kato." He said, placing his hat back on his head. "This is Cedric, Rox, Kiara, and Kikyo." Iori pointed to the others in turn. "What are your names?"

"Mai." Said the emotionless girl.

"I'm Ty Lee!" Shouted the acrobat. She grinned at the guys in the group, causing Kiara to frown.

"I'm June." Said the elder woman of the group. "And this is Nyla." Said Lizard walked up behind the bounty hunter, and had its chin scratched.

WITH SENSHI AND AZULA

Senshi had dashed down an alley in an attempt to escape the wrath of his surrogate sister. Unfortunately, the alley was a dead end. Fuck.

"Show mercy?" Asked Senshi, turning around to see Azula grinning victoriously at the young man, only to drop the grin when she saw his new scar.

"What happened?" She asked worriedly, walking up to him to inspect the wound.

"Battle damage." Said Senshi, shrugging. He was immediately slugged in the stomach for acting so carefree.

"Do you even realize what you put me through?" Asked Azula, glaring at Senshi.

"Look, I'm really sorry, but-"

"No. No buts." Interrupted Azula. "You're going to listen to me, and what I have to say." Senshi inclined his head. "You were supposed to come back in less than a month. Do you know how long I've been waiting for you? Almost four months, Senshi. FOUR. DAMN. MONTHS!" The last word was followed by an explosion of sapphire flame. Senshi managed to hold back Aula's blaze, but just barely. "And then I find you in the company of four CRIMINALS!? WHAT THE HELL!?" She glared at him more. "And on top of that, when I come all this way, just to find out what happened to you, you run from me!?" Senshi could tell that Azula was visibly holding her flames back, emotions running wild. He was surprised when Azula suddenly flung her arms around neck and hugged him close to her.

"Azula, I-"

"Shut up." Azula mumbled to him. She held him like that for a few moments, before breaking away and regaining her composure.

"What now?" Asked Senshi.

"Now, we find Zuzu and go home." Said Azula. Senshi shook his head.

"I can't go back. I still have things to do here." Said Senshi.

"Like what?"

"I can't tell you that."

"You used to be able to tell me anything." Said Azula, letting a small amount of hurt into her voice.

"I'm sorry, Azula, but there are things going on that I just can't explain." Said Senshi, pleading with his eyes for Azula to understand. Azula sighed.

"So, father was right. You have betrayed the Fire Nation." Said Azula, looking away from Senshi.

"Azula, it's not like that-"

"STOP LYING TO ME!" Azula screamed, blasting her flames at Senshi. What Senshi couldn't block, he smacked away with his own bending. More of the azure fire flew towards him, and he blocked it with his crimson fire. Sapphire met Ruby in a stunning flash as the two benders clashed together.

WITH THE OTHERS

"What the hell is going on!?" Shouted Iori, watching as the two colors clashed.

"Looks like Senshi and Azula aren't seeing eye-to-eye." Said Mai, without blinking. "I guess we'll be killing you after all." The knife thrower let loose her blades, and watched as no matter who she shot them at, Iori was faster, and caught them all. Mai began to get irritated, flinging her blades at the martial artist, only for them to either be caught, or dodged. Kikyo and Kiara were both going against June, whom was lashing at the two with her whip.

"I don't normally like direct confrontations, but hey, as long as I'm getting paid." Said the bounty hunter, as Nyla lashed out with her tongue at Kikyo, whom dodged the paralyzing appendage. Kiara used her bending to lash out with a bit of water, throwing June back.

Cedric and Rox stood in front of the petite Ty Lee, as the girl smiled cheerfully at the two men.

"Are you ready for this?" Asked Rox, popping his knuckles, and flexing for a moment.

"Normally, I do not like fighting women." Said Cedric. "But for the sake of my Lord, I shall make an exception." Ty Lee tilted her head in a way that Rox found cute, and suddenly ran at the two with near blinding speed. Rox didn't even know what hit him before his right arm went completely numb. Cedric, on the other hand, created a small wall of rock to protect him from the acrobat.

"What the hell did you do to me?" Asked Rox, waving his limp arm around, trying to get the feeling back into it. Ty Lee giggled cutely.

"Silly! I can hit your pressure points, and shut down your bending." Rox smirked. She just told him that if she couldn't hit his pressure points, she couldn't do anything to him. Said girl ran at Rox again, but instead of hitting any pressure points, he simply used his limp arm to defend from her strikes.

"Are you going to help?" Asked Rox, looking at the stone wall Cedric built for him. What Rox didn't know was that Cedric was going through the kata of a particularly dangerous bending technique: The Five Pillar Earth Prison. Suddenly, five perfect pillars of stone shot up around Ty Lee, and began spinning around her. Rox just had the time to back off from the attack, before the pillars started closing in on the girl. Rox's eyes widened. Cedric was planning on killing her!

"Are you insane!?" Shouted Rox, running around the stone wall to interrupt Cedric's kata, by kicking him in the head, which knocked him out. He heard the stone pillars stop moving, and breathed a sigh of relief. Rox walked back around the wall, but couldn't see the girl anywhere. That's probably about the point where his left leg went limp. Catching himself with his left hand, Rox saw the young girl grinning at him.

"Shit." Mumbled Rox. "Got my ass kicked by a beautiful girl. What a way to go." He watched as Ty Lee perked up at his words.

"Beautiful?" She asked him, smiling gleefully. "You think so?"

"Well, yeah." Said Rox, picking his words wisely. "Of course I think you're beautiful. You're like a bumble bee: Lovely to watch, with a sting of her own." Ty Lee was grinning from ear to ear as this young man continued to compliment her. She must admit, he wasn't bad looking.

'Maybe Azula wouldn't be too mad if I just… No! Bad Ty Lee! No flirting with the enemy!' The acrobat thought to herself as she watched Rox attempted to stand, only to fall again. Ty Lee grabbed his limp arm in order to steady him. She didn't know why she was bothering to help this man. He was the enemy, but there was something in his eyes that said if their situations were switched, he'd help her. Speaking of his eyes, they were so lovely. They were deep blue, like most of the Water Tribe, but his were better. They were like two deep pools that Ty Lee could soak in. She couldn't help herself as she began to lean into a confused Rox. His mind was completely blank as the girl came ever closer…

WITH SENSHI AND AZULA

"Shit, shit, shit, shiiiit!" Yelled Senshi, as he dodged yet another fireball. Senshi knew that he was outmatched. Sure, his bending was powerful, but Azula was a prodigy. She had him beat when it came to bending. Good thing for him that the sun was beginning to set. When darkness sets in Senshi will have the advantage.

"Hear me out!" Shouted Senshi, ducking under a fireball that would have melted his face.

"Hold still." Said Azula, throwing a vicious onslaught of fiery death. "I can't hit you if you keep moving." Darkness began to settle in, and in the already dark alley way, Senshi had his escape.

Azula's eyes widened as four more Senshis popped out of the shadows. The three of them ran at Azula, as the real Senshi discreetly slipped into the shadows. Azula was throwing her fire at the shadows, but they seemed to do nearly nothing. When Senshi was gone, his shadows swirled and vanished, leaving Azula alone. She let a single tear roll down her cheek, until she saw a slight little glint in the dark. It was the little coin Ursa had given Senshi for his birthday, all those years ago. Azula held the keepsake to her chest, silently promising to get him back.

WITH SENSHI

When Senshi got to his friends, he was completely caught off guard by what he saw: June was tied up in her own whip, (Kikyo) Nyla was frozen, (Kiara) Mai and Iori were both completely out of breath, Cedric was knocked the fuck out, and Rox and Ty Lee were making out. Okay, for some reason, that last one doesn't really surprise him, but the fact that Rox was almost completely paralyzed spoke volumes of the fact that he tried to get away from the girls affections. Obviously, he failed.

"Ty Lee, we're leaving. Can I have Rox back, please?" Asked Senshi. The acrobat shook her head, refusing to let go of the limp bodied waterbender. Senshi sighed. He chopped the back of her neck, and picked the two both up, slinging them both over his shoulders. Might as well bring them both.

"Oh god, you're not bringing her, too, are you?" Asked Rox. Senshi grinned, and walked over to Iori and Mai, whom were both laying in the grass because of how tired they were. Iori's hat was in tatters on the ground. He'd have to make a new one. Knives scattered the area around them.

"Time to go." Said Senshi. Iori snapped up, and went to grab Cedric. The two got the girls, and took off soon after, leaving behind a tied up June, and an annoyed Mai. Oh, and a pissed off Azula

"SENSHIIII!"
