Sorry for the long wait but I think I have uploaded quicker than normal. For those who have been reading with me every update I have changed an earlier detail which was how long the trip on the boat was, as it seems like a good idea, the past 2 weeks have all been about change for me and a few friends, anyway the journey has now taken a month as it is going to make the story flow and make my idea better.

"I'm not who you think I am…"*

Azula was about to remove the contact lenses she was wearing when a short sharp scream filled the room no one had heard this scream before they all proceeded to where the scream was coming from, the upstairs bedroom, Mai's and Zuko's upstairs bedroom. They neared towards the door only to see Mai sat on the floor in agony yet Zuko was nowhere to be seen, Azula ran to the en suite bathroom, whilst everyone else was worrying about Mai. She knocked and waited for a reply.

"What?" Asked Zuko.

"Well your girlfriend-"

"Fiancé"
"Whatever, is sat on your bedroom floor trying to knock this building down by screaming."

"Oh…" Zuko rushed out to see Mai sat on the floor in pain; he couldn't bare to see her in this state, he slowly moved towards Mai, he held his hand out as soon as he was next to Mai, she grabbed it, this simple movement delighted and embarrassed them both, all Zuko could think about now was helping Mai overcome this ordeal, Mai tried to mumble something but then leaned over.

"Quick! Somebody get a physician". Yelled Iroh.

Nobody moved all expecting someone else to go.

"I suppose I'll have to go, since none of you are." Azula said.

"You can't go unless you tell us who you are."

"You try and stop me, oh and anyways I'm fire nation not water tribe."


Azula ran before they could stop her.

She ran to the nearest person and asked "Do you know were a good physician or midwife is?"

"Well I'm a physician and my friend other there is a midwife." the person answered.

"Ok, could you both come to The Jasmine Dragon?"

"When?"

"Now, preferably."

"We will be a minute, just wait here whilst we get the equipment."

The physician and midwife ran towards the next street and turned the corner, leaving Azula facing a stranger on the opposite side of the street. She approached him carefully.


"Hi. Do I know you?" The stranger asked.

"I am not sure; would you please tell me your name?" Azula said politely.

"My names Chan, I live on Ember Island and I am staying in Ba Sing Se for a while with Iroh, Owner of The Jasmine Dragon. So what are you doing in Ba Sing Se?" Chan stated.

She ran. Then eventually bumped into the midwife and physician; she led them to The Jasmine Dragon and up the stairs towards the bedroom.


"Mai, are you alright, is the baby alright?" asked Azula.

"I see you're the one who needed us. Anyway let's start the procedure of getting that little boy or girl out of you."

"Ty Lee, please will you come downstairs with me, I need to tell you something." Azula said

"Yes of course Leah." Ty Lee replied.

They walked downstairs whilst neglecting the fact that they were getting followed by the two inspectors.


"So what did you want to tell me?" Ty Lee asked.

"Well I saw a friend of ours outside." She said adding a sarcastic tone on the word friend.

"Who, someone from the royal fire academy for girls?" Ty Lee asked oblivious to the sarcasm in Azula's voice.

"No. Chan." Azula said without an ounce of sarcasm.

"What? He's here in Ba Sing Se, when you're here. Where is he staying?"

"Yes he's here, he's staying here." Azula said whilst pointing upstairs.

Ty Lee's eyes widened with surprise and dismay.

"Does he know who you are, as in who you actually are?" Ty Lee asked.

Azula shrugged about to say something until silence overtook her words.

The inspectors slowly stepped out of the shadows.

"So, who is this Chan?" asked inspector A.

"One of her –"Ty Lee was about to speak until Azula interrupted her.

"One of the other people staying here, who lives on Ember Island," Azula said

"Ok, so I heard you went to the royal fire academy for girls, how did you get in?" Inspector A said adding a tone of disgust on the "you."

"Well perhaps you would like a demonstration."

Azula performed the fire bending form (from her younger years) with grace, dignity and power.

"Fire bending prodigy, fire nation Princess, now friends with Ty Lee again and maybe Mai. So now do you see how I got into the royal fire academy for girls?"

They nodded.

Neither Azula nor Ty Lee noticed the Dai Lee agents outside.

"Dai Lee arrest the fire nation princess and friend." The inspectors said.

Azula and Ty Lee cartwheeled out the way.

"All that cartwheeling paid off." Azula said.

"Yeah, it did." Ty lee replied.

"Enough talking Dai Lee arrest them."

"Erm you might want to turn around, Oh and thanks Toph." Azula said.

"You're welcome, I heard the noise coming from down here and I ran down here and well I kind of earth bended the Dai Lee to the walls and the inspectors to the floor." Toph told Azula and Ty Lee before punching them in their arms.

"What was that for?" Asked Azula and Ty Lee in unison whilst rubbing their arms.

"That's how I show affection." Toph stated.

Ty Lee and Azula shot each other a glance then nodded slowly at Toph. They approached the stairs then went up them so they could all go back to Mai and Zuko. Then Toph started laughing as she realised Sokka had fainted again.

"Let me guess he saw the baby come out?"

Everyone nodded whilst Azula rolled her eyes.

"Typical."
