Ozai, grinning mischievously, shooed away the guards who attempted to wake Azula. He pulled out an air horn. Seeing where this was going, the guards covered their ears and waited. A second later the windows shattered. But, being a prestigious firebender (and heavy sleeper), Azula didn't even flinch. The Fire Lord then proceeded to wack Azula on the head with the air horn.

"WHERE'S THE FIRE?" she screamed as she sat up abruptly. "Oh, hello father, I apologi—" and this is where Azula remembered why she had fallen asleep right outside her father's bedchambers. She glanced around to locate Zuko, but he wasn't there. Ah, I remember. He left to use the bathroom. WOAH, WAIT A MOMENT. Didn't Dad install a new dragon in there?

-in the bathroom-

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

-back-

"Okay, time to rescue him," said a guard lazily. He skipped down the hall and opened the door to the bathroom. Sliding down his face mask, he charged. There were sounds of a struggle, a girlish scream, and then Zuko ran out, followed closely behind by a slightly charred guard.

"Hello, Zuko. Had a nice pee?"

"No."

"GREAT! So why were you at my door?" inquired Ozai. Azula gulped.

"I have something to tell you, father," said Zuko quietly. Fire Lord Ozai's face seemed to darken at the sight of him. Then he gestured for the two to follow him inside.

"Please don't banish me, father. I didn't mean for you to pass out laughing, really! I just wanted to make you laugh 'cause you seemed so depressed, and I think that was because you didn't get a new atlas for Father's day so I thought I should cheer you up so I—" Zuko stopped to breathe. "—gave you that card I got from Hallmark but I actually got it from the local drug store but it had a Hallmark sticker on it and I wanted to be a good son but instead I sent you to the hospital and I'm sorry and I'm not the only one who breaks rules because Azula made out with admiral Zhao on Sunday!"

"Wait, what was that part?"

"Azula made out with admiral Zhao on Sunday?"

"No, not that one. The one about the fake Hallmark card."

"Wait…what?"

"How could you? I thought for once in your life you would care enough to spend one or two coins for your loving, caring father, BUT NO. You just couldn't do it, so you went out to the local drug store and got me a fake card? You didn't even get me that atlas for Father's Day!"

"Wait, so you don't care about Azula and Admiral Zhao?"

"There's only one way to settle this: Agni Kai."

"REALLY, DAD? DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DO THAT?"

"Tomorrow at 8, meet me in the war conference room." Azula just couldn't believe her luck. This was just too good.
