Zuko's POV
"Haa this is never ending." I groaned.
"Sparky just get it done with."
"Toph this isn't just something I can do in a heartbeat."
"Zuko just open the damn paper!"
I looked down at the manila envelope and struggled to stop the fear that lied in these papers. "What if it is my kid somehow?"
"Zuko you are fucking driving me nuts open the damn folder and look at it!" She screamed. I took a deep breath before opening the folder and peering inside at the documents that it contained. Picking up one I looked at the large bolded letters that read. "Paternity Test Results".
Turning the page over I read through the document carefully, scanning for the actual result of the test. Looking down at the bottom I read the final answer.
The results indicate that the alleged father can be excluded as the biological father of the child.
I let out a relieved sigh and started laughing. "I fucking knew it."
"What does it say!?" Toph asked. I gave her the paper with a wide successful smile.
"Im NOT the father of that bitches child! I fucking knew it!"
"Zuko this is great! You have to tell Katara immediately!" She screamed.
I was already a step ahead of her dialing Sokka. Finally after a week and four days since Katara left I had found out and proven that Mai was lying. Finally I would be able to see Katara and pull her into my arms telling her how everything would be alright.
"Zuko!?"
"Sokka! Thank god you answered you got to tell me where Katara is! That kid Mai is carrying isn't mine!"
"Wait…what do you mean tell you where she is? Isn't she at home with you?"
"What? No what are you talking about?"
"Haha very funny! My mother said Katara went home on Sunday."
"Sokka…the jokes over. Katara hasn't been home."
"What!? Zuko, my mom told me she was heading home Sunday afternoon. I might have heard wrong but I'll call and ask her."
"You better have heard wrong. Call me back immediately when you find out."
"I promise just give me a few minutes."
I hung up and turned to Toph with confusion. "Have you been in contact with Katara at all?"
"I only told her on Sunday that you had submitted the DNA test and would find out soon. She never responded."
"Fuck!" I quickly dialed my sister and began pacing the room. "Damnit Azula answer the phone."
"Zuko what's happened!?" Toph asked. I opened my mouth to respond when Azula finally picked up.
"Zuko? What's-"
"Have you heard from Katara at all!?" I immediately asked.
"Uh yeah? She sent me a text Sunday telling me she was heading back to the apartment to talk to you about what had happened. Why did you piss her off and now she's gone again?"
"Azula she never fucking came home Sunday!"
"No no no she definitely texted me saying she had left her moms house. She was at the grocery store buying ingredients to make you an apology dinner."
"And I'm saying she never fucking came! Her car wasn't there or any of her stuff. The apartment was untouched and looked the exact same since I left!"
"Oh my god. Let me call the college to see if she showed up to any of her classes. She didn't come to any of ours and I just figured it was because you guys were dealing with things."
"Damnit Azula! Make it quick, Sokka's calling me back I need to go."
"Calm down Zuko we'lll find her."
I hung up and looked at Toph who was going crazy. "ZUKO WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!"
"Katara's missing. Sokka and Azula said that she came home Sunday but she never did come home."
"What!?"
"That's what I want to know."
I threw a punch to the desk and pinched the bridge of my nose. "Damnit Sokka tell me good news." I said into my phone.
"Zuko she definitely went home Sunday. Even my dad said she left."
"Fuck! Azula said the same thing! Sokka where the hell would she go?"
"I don't fucking know?! Where were you Sunday?"
"I was stuck in a meeting with business partners till late!"
"What time did you get home?"
"What-Sokka how is this going to help us find her?!"
"Just tell me damnit!"
"I got home around 7:30 -8."
"My mom said Katara left at 5:30. When did Azula talk to her?"
"I don't know I didn't ask! She said something about going to the grocery store to get stuff for a dinner."
"Okay good what's the closest grocery store around your apartment?"
"Uh I don't know I think it's like The Cabbage Market. It's just around the corner."
"I know where that is. Let me go check with them to see if they have seen her. I'll get back to you. In the mean time call the police to see if they have heard anything about Jet. I have a really bad feeling."
As soon as his name was mentioned I felt sick to my stomach. Something about the way I hadn't heard anything about Jet and now Katara's disappearance made me shiver in fear. "Damnit Sokka I really hope you are wrong about whatever you are thinking."
"I do too."
I hung up on Sokka once again and quickly dialed the number for the detectives I had hired to find Jet's whereabouts and waited impatiently.
"What's wrong now you look really scared Zuko."
"Sokka has a bad feeling that Katara is missing and it might have something to do with Jet."
"You have got to be shitting me…" She ran out of the room and grabbed her cell phone to call someone.
I didn't have time to worry about what she was doing because the detective on the other line had finally picked up. "Mr. Azulon how can I help you?"
"What have you heard about Jet? I need every single detail right now!"
Katara's POV (Sunday)
The sickening smell of mold and gas woke me up from my forced sleep. Groggily I tried to come to, my head feeling heavy and my wrists burned. I pulled to wipe my eyes from the sleep when they got caught on the tug of rope. Moving again I felt it bite into my skin, waking me up immediately to look down and see them bound to a pole.
"What the-" I looked around and realized I wasn't at home in a bed and waking up. Instead, I was looking out at an old abandoned arcade and my wrists were bound to a snooker table. I bit back a whimper and looked around wondering how the hell I got here. I closed my eyes praying for my memory to come back to me.
What the hell happened?! I was out shopping and then I was…
"Ah you've woken up?"
Jet.
I watched him prowl towards me with a sickening smile on his face. I struggled in my bonds and tried desperately to break free. I curled up into myself when he approached me, dropping onto his haunches to be eye level. "Shhhh calm down Katara. You're safe."
Safe?! It all came back to me immediately. I was putting my things away and he was behind me. Drugged me and took me to what looked like an old arcade.
His hand reached out cupping my face and sighing. "I wish I could untie your hands but knowing you you'd run off."
"No shit!" I spat. Finally finding my voice.
He watched me with an amused expression, laughing before running his thumb along my bottom lip. "Ahhh. Over the years you have definitely grown a bit more of a personality. Before you used to be so quiet and introverted. Now I see you've got a bit more spark in you."
"I couldn't give two shits to what you think, now let. Me. Go."
"Ah, ah, ah" He said slowly, waving his index finger in front of me. "See I just can't do that Katara. I've been trying for weeks to speak with you and you just wouldn't let me."
"Maybe because you're a psychotic son-of-a-bitch!" I screamed, tugging on the rope once more and wincing when it bit into my wrist again.
"Stop struggling Katara you're just hurting yourself." he said exhaustedly.
"This is nothing compared to the pain I can only imagine you're going to inflict on me."
Jet sighed and back up with his hands in the air. "In case you haven't noticed Katara I haven't done anything to you. You are still dressed and in one piece with no marks. Well except for the probable rashes and cuts on your wrists, but you did that yourself."
"YOU PUT ME HERE!"
"And that's all I did. It wouldn't have come to this if you had just let me speak with you."
"You're delusional," I laughed half heartedly. "After what you did to me that night why would I want anything to do with you?"
He sighed and leaned against the foosball table across from me. "I was seriously drugged up that night Katara. I wasn't thinking correctly and made a stupid decision. I don't blame you for calling the police and getting a restraining order. I deserved it, and I learned my lesson. I was stupid for even thinking for a moment in my drugged up state that someone could look at you with lustful eyes."
I felt like throwing up as his eyes practically stripped me down. I felt so violated and he wasn't even touching me. He pulled his eyes back to mine and smiled, "Oh how much I've missed you Katara. You're absolutely breathtaking. Age does good on you."
"I don't fucking care what you think you sick twisted freak!"
He groaned exasperatedly, "I understand you're angry angel." I flinched at the old endearment he used to call me by as he continued. "After a few hours you will calm down and we can talk about things with clearer heads."
"Like that would ever happen! I'm done with you Jet, I moved on now release me!"
He sighed and walked back towards me. I curled up again when his hands pushed my legs flat against the floor and sat on them. I struggled to kick him but was fruitless under his weight. He brushed his fingers through my hair and smiled. "God Katara even after a few years you still turn me on so much."
"N-no leave me alone! Get away from me!"
His fingers brushed along my face and smiled lustfully. "Katara soon you will remember all the good times we had. I loved you so much, I still do." His nose brushed along my neck smelling me and I whimpered in fear. "But as you wish I will leave you alone tonight. I've brought your favorite. Chinese, if you cooperate I will let you eat it."
"I don't fucking want it, just get away from me!"
He sighed before getting up and walking away. "I'll be back in a few hours, you'll be hungry then."
He slipped into another room and I let my tears fall. I was so scared and so worried. What was he going to do to me?
I'm so weak in here. Bound, trapped, and probably torture awaited me while I sat in this hell hole. I tried to stop my tears from pitifully falling down my face only to find one fall desperately after the other.
"Zuko..please. Save me."
