Still don't own LoK or Anastasia!
NOTICE: FROM HERE ON OUT, I WILL NOT UPDATE A FANFIC UNTIL THE MOST RECENT CHAPTER HAS AT LEAST THREE REVIEWS TO ITS TITLE!
"Wow, so you're Anastasia," Ilah yelled as she ran up to the youngest Romanov female. "You're so pretty, but why are you with big brother?"
"Ilah!" Mai said in a warning tone as she entered the room that Anastasia had been moved into that was across the hall from Iroh's. "That is no way to talk about your brother."
"I wasn't saying anything about Iroh," she protested, but quieted as Zuko and Iroh's parents walked in.
"It's nice to see you again," Anastasia smiled with relief, "Iroh must be the only other familiar face around here."
"Speaking of which, where is Iroh?" Ilah demanded with her hands on her hips, and Anastasia smiled down at her.
"That's for me to know and for you to find out," she replied smugly, and Ilah glared up at her.
"So you were being naughty when you were in the coma," Ilah replied and Anastasia blinked at her confused.
"So, tell me little one… would you 'get naughty' with someone while in a coma, as you so eloquently put it?" Anastasia asked the young firebender, and she looked up at her angrily.
"I would never do that! how dare you ask me that!" she yelled going to attack Anastasia with firebending.
But before the flames burnt a horror- and fear-struck Anastasia, Iroh shoved her aside and sent his own flames out to stop that of his sister's.
"If you ever try to attack her again, I'll make sure you can't see straight for the rest of the day," Iroh threatened, and Ilah blinked at him in shock as Anastasia's eyes were wide, unseeing, and yet again in the past.
"Why do you defend her? She's a commoner!" Ilah yelled.
"If you think that, you're gravely mistaken," Iroh said darkly. "She is royalty from another world, Ilah, and I will do everything in my power to protect her, and not only because she is the last of her family's lineage that we know about."
Ilah was about to go yell for her parents to back her up, but Zuko stepped in and began lecturing her about why she didn't attack her brother like that and for her to stop acting like Azula did. At this, the young princess calmed down into an angry simmering of her temper. Iroh simply knelt down to the other princess and put his hand on her upper back. He began to murmur quietly, some words just barely able to be made out by his family, but one word in particular made them curious – Rasputin.
Anastasia squeezed her eyes shut tightly as she heard Iroh's fireball, and calmed only when she felt his hand on her upper back. After he began murmuring quietly, she knew that the fight was over and that for some strange reason, she was in no more danger. Slowly, she raised her head and opened her eyes to lock hers with his. Iroh was calm even though he was able to tell that Anastasia's eyes were clearly filled with fear, loneliness, pain, and pleading for help. He pulled her to him and held her tightly as she clutched him fearfully. Iroh's parents and grandparents said nothing as they saw his display, and Mai shot Zuko a curious look that he returned with a knowing one.
"Why don't you take her back to her room, Iroh? I'm sure she'll feel a little better when she's in a familiar environment," Zuko suggested gently, and Iroh looked up at him with a grateful nod.

"Why do we have to listen to those goons?!" Olga yelled angrily as she kept taking chi from other waterbender's.
"Olga, slow down! You heard what Avatar Kyoshi said – you have to be with papa," Tatiana said sourly, and her older sister looked over at her.
"Nobody asked you, Tatiana!" she shot back, and they could have sworn that she was possessed with a demon just by looking into her eyes.
"Olga, have some decency!" Alexandra yelled angrily, "We must obey the Avatars, or we will not get our bending."
"But why does Tatiana get to go first?!" Olga screamed angrily. "It's not fair! I'm the eldest!"
"With that mindset, you're the third eldest because your mother and I are older than you," Nicholas pointed out. "You are to arrive last with me, and that is final. If I have to steal the chi from you to do this, then so be it. I will not bring dishonor on my family here before we have even met anyone that is alive."
"You spoil Anastasia and Alexei rotten!" Olga screamed, "And you always stand up for Tatiana, never me! You hate me because I'm the eldest! Well guess what – I HATE YOU!"
She was about to suck a lot of chi from a lot of benders, but she was vanished into a different location, one that was unfamiliar to her. She stared around her angrily, unsure of her location, but sizing up the people in the area. There were two elders in the room, one with burn marks on the left side of his face, and the other with a stare so profound that it almost made Olga wonder if she was even alive. Then there was a set of parents with their ten year old daughter, who was pestering them about her older brother supposedly "getting naughty" with someone that she could only assume was the girlfriend of the older brother of said ten-year-old.
"Where am I? I demand to know where I am!" she yelled, but the others didn't hear her. "I DEMAND THAT YOU TELL ME WHERE I AM!"
Nobody in the room replied to her, as they couldn't see or hear her, but there were two people behind her who knew her voice from anywhere who were staring at her as though she had lost her mind. But when Olga turned around after feeling eyes on her back, she saw nothing except two people walking down the hall, one with his arm around the shoulders of the other, and she with hers around his waist.
Yes, the trouble-making starts! There will be a lot of pairings going on. Who wants to see what pairings? I still need one for each of the Romanov siblings (aside from Anastasia), Demitri, the air nomads, Bolin, Asami, and I'm considering putting Vlad and Sophie together... I AM ACCEPTING REQUESTS! Not only for couples, but also for chapter ideas as well!
Keep in mind, more reviews makes me give you more chapters the next time I update! Three reviews equals an update at least!
