Nexht chapter is up, this is the first time a chapter is shorter than the one before but this is only because I had to split it because it was too long man what am I doing. I wanted to have travel in 4chapters and now we have 7 at the minimum Pls do post reviews because I really appreciate the criticism and the encouragment and it is alwas nice to know that someone reads your stories.

"So what are we doing now and where are we?" Azula was tapping on her toes barely hiding that she couldn´t wait to get off this ship. „Well all soldiers are already off the ship so I guess it is only the two of us and since I am hungry I thought we could eat, if that is fine with you. And to the where, I have no idea. Some harbor on some funny island."

„This isn´t some funny island this is Azulon´s harbor an island named after my grandfather." she was considering to add that therefore this island was also named after here but opted to remain silent about that point. She did not want to seem bragging, that wasn´t something a princess would do. „Wait a minute," Sokka interrupted her thoughts, „a moment ago you asked me where we are and now you are telling me the name of the island we are on. What game are you trying to play?"

„I know the fire nation like I know my the back of my hand you just had to mention we are on an island and since we traveled for some days Azulon´s harbor is the only possibilty, Dum-dum."

Sokka ignored the last word and interrogated her further. „So if you know that place so well you surely know a good food place, don´t you?". „Of course I do, a restaurant worthy of royals should be fine enough for you too, don´t you think?" Azula had to smile at the sight of him already producing saliva, he was really funny at times. And she rather liked him although he was an enemy by default. That was also why she didn´t object to have a dinner with him not that she really had the choice anyway but she told herself she had.

So the two of them left the ship and headed towards the restaurant Azula had always been to with her family when they had visited this island. While they were walking people took notice of Azula and stared or at least peeked at her. Everyone had heard that Azula the former princess of the fire nation had been banished because she had supported her father and had commited several acts that were seen as war crimes. So the people were quite shocked to see her walk around on a fire nation island without any soldiers having her in custody. Instead the only person who accompanied her was a tanned boy who rather seemed to be her friend or well, boyfriend.

Sokka was oblivious to this fact but Azula noticed and enjoyed the confusion she was causing.

When they finally arrived at the restaurant guards blocked their way in. They refused to serve Sokka as he didn´t look like he had enough money to even get a drink but as soon as they recognized Azula they let them in. The people in the restaurant acted the same way as the people before no could believe Azula was just walking in their like she just did.

The waiters that came to serve them were very polite albeit they were so afraid of Azula even Sokka could notice. But the two didn´t care and just ordered their meals, both of them were to hungry to deal with something else than meat. When the food was finally served the ate at full speed and none of them spoke a word until they were finished.

„You know what I really like here in the fire nation?" Sokka was the first one to break the silence again. „So there really is something you like that comes from the fire nation?" Azula wondered half jokingly. „The food it is delicious! I mean you have so much meat even your meat eats meat. And I like that it is so spicy. I am a fan of food that is hot and I am a fan of meat." Azula couldn´t surpess a laughter. „I am glad there is at least something you like here, maybe you should order some takeaway food." „Nahh that won´t be necessary I can make gastronomic visits here whenever I want." Azula´s face darkened. „I can´t..." „Come on cheer up, I bring you some food whenever I´ll go here okay? Yeah thats what I do I will become Sokka the delivery boy!" Sokka tried to put up some heroic pose but because he was still siting he just looked ridiculous.

„That is not funny, you know sometimes you are really funny but whenever you try to be you just are not." „Come on I just tried to cheer you up, why do you have to insult me." he was a bit offended. But Azula wasn´t noticing because she watched the owner of the restaurant approaching. Suddenly she had an idea and with a smile she turned back to Sokka. „Yeah, yeah calm down. If you want to cheer me up just watch me and play your role." Sokka wasn´t sure what she meant by this but said nothing because the owner had come to their table.

„Princess Azula it is err a pleasant surprise to have you as our guest." „Why is it such a surprise to you? My family used to visit your restaurant quite often. Sure I did not noticed you of my visit beforehand but still you seem quite shocked to see me. I am a bit hurt, I thought any restaurant would be glad to serve me." Azua turned her head a bit and looked sad which only added to the uncomfortable feelings the man had. „No,no I did not meant to offend you princess Azula. It is just that I thought I mean I heard you were banished so well..." Azula was smiling, „You might heard that of course but that isn´t the truth, you know." At this point Sokka looked just as confused as the owner. „You served our family well so I think I might trust you, this is all part of a secret mission." „A secret mission?" the man just couldn´t believe what he was just hearing. „Yes a secret mission, I am sent to spy the Eartkingdom and to disguise my objectives it has been spread that I have been banished." Sokka was totally shocked, he didn´t know what Azula was just talking. On the one hand he knew it just wasn´t true but on the other hand she seemed as if she was saying nothing but the truth and it really started to worry him. Maybe there was a secret plot that even Aang was not aware of. „It is a mission of top priority and so far only you and my right-hand man commander Chan know about this. Am I right Chan?" with these words she was pointing at Sokka. When she kicked him underneath the table he finally understood. „Yes you are absolutely right my dear princess Azula. So you understand mister that we need you to keep this secret, is that clear?" Sokka spoke with a voice deeper than his usual one and gestured heavily, Azula sighed he wasn´t half the lier she was but the restaurant owner believed it anyway. „Of course, no one will know. Trust me your majesty and of course your meal is on me. I wish you a pleasant evening and good luck with your mission." and with that he left in a hurry deeply confused.

Azula and Sokka left their table and left the restaurant they too were in a hurry but not because they were confused but because they had to surpress laughing. When they made it around the corner into a lonely alley Sokka began laughing furiously while Azula put up her trademark mysterious smile.

„Oh man that was so funny and you are such a good actress. You even had me believe this."

„Yeah that really did cheer me up." „Besides I never knew you had a sense of humor."

Azula grinned at him, „I am quite the funny type." she said to him in a seductive tone.

„Really?" „Yes along as humilation, lies and irony are involved." she laughed.

Both continued to laugh for awhile constantly teasing each other and re-enacting the scene in the restaurant. When Azula was smiling Sokka thought to himself that he had never seen her that way before. When they had been enemys he usually had seen her in fights and since they made this trip together she had been confusing or in a bad mood. But this was the first time he saw her enjoying herself at least a little. And he came to the conclusion that he liked her although she had been an enemy and although she could be crazy sometimes.

The next chapter should be up soon as it is basically just the second part of this episode pls review
