"It's been a good run."
"Prince Zuko," A servant's voice boomed, waking the prince from his slumber.
"Hm?" He asked rubbing his eyes.
"An urgent letter has arrived from the palace." The servant said, handing Zuko the scroll.
"Oh," Zuko took it and sat up. He unravled it and read through it. He had figured it would be a long letter about the wedding or something, but it wasn't. The servant stood close by, watching Zuko lean back as his eyes widened. "Prepare my ship and set corse for the Fire Nation immediatly." Zuko demaded flipping his covers off of him and quickly pulling on his boots.
The servant nodded and headed towards the ship.
Zuko woke Katara up and then went to the ship. Katara still had absolutly no idea what was going on, but she woke Sokka up and told her they were leaving.
"Oh?" Sokka asked streaching. "Well, I think I'm going to go with Aang....and...see the world." Sokka nodded. Aang sat up from his bed a smiled.
"Sweet! We can go ride the hog monkey and oh! And the Elephant Koi fish! And-" Sokka turned and hugged his little sister goodbye.
"What's going on?" Katara asked, sitting next to Zuko.
"I don't know. My mother sent me a letter and it just said that something was happening to my father."
"Oh," She said leaning her head against his shoulder. "I'm sorry." She said rubbing his left shoulder.
"It's fine." He said laying down and pulling her with him. Zuko had a hard time sleeping that night. He was worried out of his mind. If his father were to pass on his mother would be Fire Lord...would the councile believe the Fire Nation would be kept stable in her hands? If his father did go...Zuko knew his mother probably wouldn't be able to handle it. Then, if something happened to her, he would be forced to be Fire Lord unless Iroh would take the crown. Zuko knew the counile would let a hog monkey be Fire Lord before Azula because she was just too much like her grandfather's.
Dans la Nation du Feu
Later the next night:
Zuko's ship pulled into the dock and he was immediatly greated by a couple of the Palace's servants.
"Greetings, Prince Zuko," They bowed. "Your father is in the imfermary."
"What?" Zuko gasped out.
"We have yet to figure out what is wrong with him. Lady Nyeema has just arrived and his attempting to treat him." Zuko nodded and followed them to the Imferamery Building.
----
Ursa had her head down on his chest, sobbing. Mrs. Anue and Lady Nyeema were standing to the left with their head's bowed down. Zuko stood close by the door, wide eyed and shocked. Katara still stood in the hallway.
One of the men healers let out a gasp when a small, thin trail of blood excapted the lords mouth. He orders a few guards to pull Ursa down into a chair. He placed two fingers on the lords wrist and waited a few seconds, letting out a sigh, the healer went to check Ozai's neck...
----
"No, you can't!" Zuko stepped back, grasping the corner of the wall. "Please don't." Zuko's head began to ach. "You can't leave me here." His ears clogged and his mothers yelps seem to turn into whispers. "Why now?" Her voice echoed. His legs went numb. "You've never given up before." His lungs burned. "Why here?" He couldn't breathe. "Oh, Agni, please, no." Zuko had backed up to the hall. He couldn't feel Katara's arms wrap around his torso from behind. "I love you so much." He barely made out. "Please," Her echo's filled his ears. "Don't leave me." Her words repeated over and over again.
He remembered her sobs filling the room. Zuko had backed up, almost tripping on his own feet. He had pretty much fell out of the room. He didn't remember turning and hugging Katara, letting his own sobs silently escape.
Zuko woke up, quickly sitting up and gasping for air. Katara woke up and squinted.
"Zuko," She cooed. "Are you alright?" She asked pushing herself up with her right arm.
"I keep on dreaming it." He said running his fingers through his loose hair.
"Oh, Zuko. Your father is strong," She said rubbing his arm. "You need to sleep." She said laying back down.
Zuko still sat up. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't think anymore. His head hurt too much. He didn't want to lay down. His heart hurt too much. He sighed and slowly laid down next to his lover. He looked over to his open window. He prayed to the moon that night. He prayed that the moon spirit watch over him that night and give him strength.
Edit:: Dans La Nation de Feu. Sect. 3. "paragraph" 7::: He looked over to his open window. He looked at the moon...and wondered if his father was looking at the same one.
Joe Dirt :] annnnnd What I mean is if Ozai is looking at the mortal world moon or the spirit world moon. Also, if the moon spirit gave Yue life, it can give it to Ozai, right? So, if I do let him life, should I give him like, silver eyes? Ozai with white hair would just look odd and I can not have an odd looking Ozai.
Okay, I'm sorry it's late and it's short, but I dicided that I should ask you guys what should happen. Well, I mean, I can't kill Ozai juuuusttt yet, so would you want him to have silver eyes, or would that just be too wierd? I mean, Zuko prayed to the moon spirit just like Yue's father did and the moon spirit gave her white hair, so on Ozai there just must be some mark that Luna was there...but I just know what. So, I'm leaving that up to you guys. :] I might add more later tonight. Idk. I'm going to go watch Big Brother now :]
