Zuko found a flier that revealed that Aang and his friends were looking for his flying bison and ever since, Zuko has acted strange. He goes out at night when he thinks that you're asleep. It worries you. You've decided to follow him when he leaves tonight because worrying and waiting for him is simply not working. The lack of sleep is beginning to show on your face.

Regardless you got ready for the day; you dressed in a pale green corset style top and a matching green and gold skirt that is short in the front and longer in the back.

You walked back to the bedroom and woke Zuko, he seemed so tired, initially you frowned but you smiled when Zuko opened his eyes. He had a look of pure love on his face you couldn't help but smile.

"Morning beautiful" he yawned.

"Morning sleepyhead"

Zuko chuckled "I call you beautiful and I'm sleepy head?" he questioned.

"Well i could call you prince bedhead" you replied with a quiet laugh, referring to his hair, which was a mess of tangles sticking out in every direction, it was adorable. You softly kissed him, then swiftly left the room so he could get ready.

Iroh had already made breakfast, so once Zuko was done, the three of you walked to the teashop.

The morning was fairly uneventful, no broken teacups or angry customers. However the afternoon was the complete opposite. Zuko broke seven teacups but that was least of your problems.

Jet kicked open the door to the tea shop causing everyone in the shop to look at him, some with curiosity and some with uncertain fear.

'This won't end well' you thought closing your eyes.

"Those three are fire nation!" Jet yelled gesturing at you, Zuko and Iroh.

"Are you insane?" your boss asked, "they're my best employees"

"They're fire nation" Jet yelled again.

"No we aren't" Zuko defended calmly.

"I'll prove it!" Jet yelled as he lunged at Zuko with his two hook sword things. He kept attacking Zuko trying to force him to firebend. Jet's plan ultimately failed because Zuko pulled two dual swords off the wall to defend himself with.

Your boss ran out of the shop to find earth kingdom guards. Once the guards had Jet restrained, you walked over to Zuko

"Are you alright" you asked him as you hugged him. He nodded catching his breath.

"They're fire nation! I'm not lying!" you heard Jet yell from outside.

"I think he's completely lost it" you commented, Zuko nodded in agreement.

"Get back to work!" your boss yelled.

Suddenly a middle-aged man stopped Iroh. "Are you the man that makes tea here?" he asked.

"Why yes" Iroh replied cheerfully

"You make the best tea in all of Ba-Sing-Se, I'd like to give you your own tea shop" the man said.

Before Iroh could answer your boss said, "you can't take away my worker"

The man ignored him "you'll have your own tea shop in the upper ring and a nice full-sized apartment" The man said, Iroh was clearly sold on the idea.

"I'll triple your pay," your boss offered.

"You can name the tea shop," the man offered with a smile.

Iroh's eye lit up "You've got a deal!"

You turned to Zuko with a smile "did you hear that, we'll have a better place to live and look how happy Mushie is" you said excited.

Zuko put on a fake smile, that could have fooled anyone but you "its great" he said.

'Zuko what's wrong, I wish you'd talk me' you sighed but Zuko didn't notice.

The three of you quit your jobs and went back to the apartment to pack, not that there was much to pack but still. Zuko was in a bad mood. The silence was bothering you but you had no idea what to say.

Suddenly Iroh spoke. "So I was thinking about names for our new tea shop...how about...the Jasmine Dragon? Its poetic… Has a nice ring to it.

"What about the Shaded Jade?" you suggested.

"Oh! Good one Kana!" Iroh said "Prince Zuko what do you think?" he asked.

Zuko ignored him and changed the subject. "The avatar is in Ba-Sing-Se and he lost his bison"

"We have a chance to start a new life here. If you start stirring up trouble, we could lose all of the good things that are happening to us," Iroh reasoned.

"Good things are happening to you. Have you ever thought that I want more from life then a nice apartment and a job serving tea."? Zuko snapped.

"Zuko calm down" you told him.

"Theirs nothing wrong with a life of peace and prosperity. I suggest you think about what you want from your life and why" Iroh reasoned.

"I want my destiny" Zuko said darkly as he left the apartment.

"Does your damn destiny include me!" you yelled as Iroh yelled, "what that means is up to you to decided"

You were crying. As you calmed down you realized that Zuko wasn't going to come back for a while.

Suddenly Iroh spoke "the tea weevil!" he said with a name-up-in-lights gesture. "No, no that's stupid"

You sighed with your face in your hands. It was going to be a long night.
