Because I Said So Part Four
By: Me, BitterSweetNightmare
Pairings: Jetzula and Zue
Summary: On the night that Fire Lord Azulon died, Ozai was killed. Leaving Ursa to take over and to stop the war. Causing Zuko to marry a Water Tribe princess, named Yue and Azula to marry the son of a soldier of the Earth Kingdom, named Jet.
Information: Jet lives with his father, whos a Earth Kingdom general and the Yue never died and became the Moon Spirit. Jets is a Earthbender and Yue is a Waterbender. Zuko and Azula never compete with each other to get the Avatar. See how much changes when one person dies instead of the other. But I still like Ozai better then Ursa.
Azula is 14, Jet is 16, Zuko is 17, and Yue is 16
Chapter Four: Jets Promise to his Fire Flower
No one was in the room when Azula came in. Where was Jet? Did he leave? She hoped not. The princess ran around the looking in every direction, every room, every were, but the said earthbender wasnt there. This drove her insane! Where was Jet! "Princess Azula?" The firebender turned around to the sound of the voice to see a girl like boy. "Im Haru, Jets best friend but were more like brothers." Azula nodd waiting to hear more about Jet. "Your mother is showing him her garden." A second later Azula was running outside as fast as the wind. Knowing her mother she would say horrible, untrue things about her. Azula wasnt going to let that happen.
When she got to the garden her mouth literly droped, when she saw Jet. He had dark shin, soft looking, dark brown hair that fell into deep brown eyes. There was muscles that showed from under his dark green vest, that made her realize that he wasnt wearing a shirt and the vest was open. A piece of ragweed swayed side from side in his mouth, suductly. Jet was differently a work of art.
She never saw anyone from the Earth Kingdom, except Haru, so this boy was very exotic looking to her. He made her excited and courious that she wanted to touch him. She walked slowly to the boy, as if he was a delicate creature that would run away if frightened. Azula also wanted to be graceful with her enterance, but it failed when she slipping on one of the wet rocks by the poud. Falling in the body of water with a scream, which caught the attention of Jet and Ursa. The Fire Lady laughed out loud and Jet chuckled a little at the sight of the now soaked princess, that had flowers stuck all over her. This was not how she wanted Jet to meet her.
"Hi, Im Jet and you must be the little Fire Flower that Im betroth to." The name "Fire Flower" made Azula blushed more that her face turned completly beat red. Jet luaghed again, flashing her a smile, "Your cute when you blush."
--------------
When Azula was dry again Jet came to her room with a that sweet smile of his on. "So this is my Fire Flower when she is dry?" Hot blood rushed to her face and she looked down at her lap. Jet sat down next to her and looked at her. "If you want to talk to me just walk down the hall. Then I can know more about you, but before I go I got something for you." He placed a scoll by her and left without a word. Azula looked down at the parchment in wonder. What did it say? She stared at it for the longest time deciding weither to open it are not. It was like she was deciding between life or death. Finally she reached for the scoll and unrolled it.
Something fell into her lap and she looked at it in aww. It was a necklace, in the middle was a craving of the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom symbols on a light green stone that was connected to a black, silk ribben. Azula then looked at the scoll, know that the reason of the necklace was somewhere in there.
Dear Princess Azula
I have been thinking about this engagment for a while now and have been thinking. Thinking about you, like what you would look like, whats your personality. I have been hearing rumors about you being cold heart and a horrible person, but I dont believe it. What I believe is what is said about you and your mothers realationship and that Im being used to torture you along with stoping the war. I know that you probably want another firebender as a husband instead of a earthbender, whos a son of a general of the enemy, but this is what has to be done. For the good of the world and probably for both of us. I promise you this I will treat you with respect, I will cerish and love you forever. Because I already know that I love you even though I havent met you yet. When we do meet I will give this promise of love to you.
You are probably wondering about the necklace. Well, Im friends with Princess Yue of the Northern Water Tribe and in their culture when a man loves a women he craves her a necklace and after getting permission from the parents he presents it to her. Its called a Betrothal necklace. So I decided to crave one for you, the light green stone is the August stone and from what I heard is that you were born in August. And on it a put the symbols of our nations, that stands for this marriage. Combinding the elements of Fire and Earth.
Love Jet
When Azula finished reading it tears of happiness filled her eyes to the brim, no one ever said such kind words to her. This was a letter and necklace was a symbol of love. With a smile planted on her face and her eyes closed, she tied the necklace around her neck and made a vow of never taking it off.
