Sorry it took so long for me to add on. I am going to try to keep this up to date. I am on my schools basketball team and I have chemistry, plus filling out college applications and scholarship applications. So I will work on this story during my down time. I have decided to have the view not just be Katara's but also Zuko's. I think that this will add some reader frustration for you guys and help me for any future story. Hope you guys like this new chapter

*Zuko's POV*

I was reeling, how she dare do that, I was being gracious by not killing her, granted I was using her as bait, but still I didn't kill her, nor did I put her in the dungeon and let the men abuse her down there. Never the less she was my prisoner and I believe I made my point to her about behaving. I stalked back to my room to see if she was ready to behave, but when I was about to burst into a raging fit, I was surprised by the sight I saw. She was still bound to the bed, but she was sleeping sitting straight up.

Instead of waking her up, I preceded to my bath chambers to prepare myself for bed, when I arrived she was still asleep. Instead of just leaving her there to sleep, I decided I wound unbind her and have her sleep with me in my bed, but not before taking precautions.

I quietly walked to my door and opened it slightly to tell my guard that he is to open the door for no one but me and that it would be locked tightly. I then quickly made sure that my bath chambers door was locked along with the small window, so I could assure she would not awaken and bend the water into ice daggers to kill me.

After taking all of these small precautions I then unlocked her restraints and lifted her to carry her to my bed. Her weight shocked me, no I did not expect her to be heavy, but I also didn't anticipate for her to weight so light. I was easily able to hold her with one arm and move my covers back to lie her down and cover her back up. I then tip-toed to my side of the bed and laid down, waiting for sleep to capture me.

*Katara's POV*

I awoke and felt something warm and lumpy beneath me. Not thinking I just attempted to fall back asleep, but then the previous day's memory rushed back to me. I was captured by Zuko and taken back to his ship, where he is attempting to use me as a lure for Aang. I then dared to peak my eyes open and was shocked to see where I was.

Not only was I lying on someone's chest in their room, but when I looked up, the face that I saw shocked me, I screamed bolted right up out of his bed. Unfortunately, I also caused Zuko to awake also.

"You bastard, first you take me from your ship, but then proceed to sleep with me in your bed?!" I yelled.

"Well how about this Katara, would you rather sleep with me in my bed chambers, or be in the ships jails, where my guards could have easy access to you?" He asked smirking, knowing exactly what my answer will be.

"Well obviously since I can choose neither, I would rather stay in here, but so help me if you ever lay your arms around me again, I will make you regret it." I said matter-of-fact tone of voice.

"Oh will you now. Have you already forgotten Katara that you are not in charge here?" Zuko said, getting up and stalking towards me. "Remember you cannot bend due to there being no water, and if you do, I will burn you and make sure you will regret ever have the ability. And if you continue to try to hurt me, then I will do something much, much worse to you." I was then trapped up against the door, Zuko's body was flat against mine.

What I then next I knew I would regret. I kneed him right between his legs, causing him to dopple over in pain. I made a b-line to the door and tried to open it, but to my avail it was locked. I then looked at the window. Yes I thought I could open it and bend the water in and bend a wall of ice thick enough to stop Zuko long enough to keep him trapped while I would then open the door with another wave. But when I went to open my hand was burnt.

I screamed out in agonizing pain. How could this be, Zuko wasn't anywhere near me. I was then dragged to the bed by my hair. I was screaming and thrashing.

I was thrown onto the bed and Zuko climbed ontop of me and wrapped his hands around my neck.

"Now what did I say about behaving!" Zuko shouted while slowly tightening his hand around my neck. "You should be grateful, I haven't killed you, I am letting you sleep with me in my room where you are safe, I am not going to starve you. You should be happy."

Everything was going dark. "Okay Zuko I am sorry, please let go. I will behave, I promise." I said begging.

"Fine but if you ever pull a stunt like that again, I will not hold back. Everything beside my door will burn you. The only way you can avoid it is if you were a fire bender." He said. He then got off me and went to his door. "I'll be back later Katara, if you behave, then maybe I will feed you."

He slammed his door shut and left me in his room alone once again. I had to think of a way to get out of here. Maybe I could store enough water somehow and bend it. Or starve myself to the point where he has to stop to get me medical help, and then make my escape there. But where would I hide the food remains.

Damn it how the hell was I gonna get out of here. His room was to dry for me to bend the water out of the air, and he had no plants in his room. I could blood bend, but I vowed to never do that again, and I needed a full moon.

I then began to venture around his room, looking for any type of weapon that I could use against him. I searched through every drawer and found nothing. I couldn't even use the book he has, those would cause no damage.

I gave up and just decided to read the books lying around. It was about fire nation history, and honestly I couldn't even remember what half of it was about. The only thing that was truly interesting was about how Sozin destroyed the air nomads. It said that Sozin attacked the "air nations army" but I knew that wasn't true based off of Aang's stories.

The air nomads seemed to try to avoid war and armies. They were free spirited and yes even tho they knew of the war, they never thought that the fire nation could reach their lands.

I heard the door open and I quickly put the book down. It was one of Zuko's guards. He had a tray of food and told me that if I was thirsty I was to tell him, because I couldn't be left alone with water in the room with me. I hated to admit it, but the food was delicious. The fruit tasted fresh and was juicy, and the pork and rice was seasoned amazingly and was cooked perfectly. I was finished the water and just continued to read the boring book.

Zuko arrived back to his room and told me that we would be making a stop at one of the fire nation colonies to get supplies. He told me that I would be by his side constantly and if I tried anything, I would regret it later. I knew better than to do it in a little fire nation colony where they would happily hand me over to their beloved prince.

I would escape, even if it took days, weeks, or months. I didn't anticipate it to be years due to the fact that Aang was on a time frame. He needed to defeat Fire Lord Ozai before the comet. Then I began to think even more. It would be easier for me to stay as Zuko's prisoner, I could manipulate him possibly. I could convince him that I would be enough to bring him back his honor. Even tho I hated to admit it, and it wasn't the truth. But the world assumed Aang and I were together. This should be surely enough to convince Zuko, and Ozai may even believe. Yes I thought, I would stay and be a distraction to give Zuko more time, get strategies, and in the end escape and give away all off the battle plans.

Yes this will work, this will ultimately help the gang.

Authors Note

Hoped you guys liked this chapter. I am hoping that maybe this will help me with my writing skills. If you guys want anything else let me know. I have decided, and agreed, to have Zuko and Katara fall in love slowly. I do not like how in the other stories they fall in love quickly. I know it will be harder to write to, but I am up for the challenge if you guys are up for the wait of me getting the chapters finished. Tell me of any spelling errors or of any grammatical errors that I have missed. Please review. Thanks for reading.
