Yuki looks at him unsure what to say and she covers her burning scar and the rest of her body up with a blanket. She says kindly with a blush on her cheeks, "Please leave my room Zuko. There is nothing you can do for me." She sits down on her bed and gets out a cream for her burning scar. Her body was shaking a little.
Zuko noted the scar. He looks at her and realized that she was naked. He backs out of the room and closes the door. He turns and goes to his room. He sits on the bed and grabs his bronze swords and goes to his secret place to practice with his bronze swords. He practices with them for another nerve racking seven hours.
Yuki finishes taking care of her scar before putting one of her clean kimonos. She then goes to his side after a while. She was kind of embarrassed of her scar. She knocks on the door before coming in slowly. She says, "I am sorry about earlier Zuko." She stays by the door just in case he did not want her near him right now.
Zuko lay across his bed, both of his arms dangling off with one half of the bronze swords in hand. His eyes closed his breath regulated. To anybody else he would have looked to be just resting or lying down but the truth was he over worked himself again and had passed out over his bed. He was so determined to master the bronze sword that he didn't even let go of the blades when he passed out. He just lay on his bed unconscious and oblivious of what was going on around him.
Yuki gets closer to him to see that he was unconscious. She sighs and says, "You are over working yourself." She takes the swords out of his hands and puts them up. Then she covers him up in the bed. She kisses him softly on the lips before leaving the room. She then waits for night to come so she can practice without eyes on her.
Zuko awakes later that evening. He walks outside to search for Yuki. He then walks out to the front of the helm and finds Yuki. The sun fades and the moon rising. He walks up behind Yuki and says, "Your time approaches the ship falls asleep and I believe you will be fine. You can practice all night if you want too." He then looks at her and says, "Where did you get your scar?"
Yuki looks at him as she practices her water whip. Her body tenses up the mention of her scar. She stops doing the water whip and looks up at the sky. "My father gave it to me when I was little. When I was about four years old, it was night and there was some noises coming from my parents' room. So I got up from my bed to see what was going on. I crept to their room as quietly as could. I opened their door to find my father punishing my mother by whipping her with some kind whip. My mother was bleeding and I got so mad that I attacked my father. But I was too weak then to beat him and that just made him madder. He used a water whip to give me that scar and puts his chi into it so it would forever cause me pain, as a painful reminder that I am just a weak useless girl."
