Chapter 8: Reuniting

I woke up confused, scared and injured. "What the...ugh where am I?" I asked then saw Zuko i was so excited. I forgot about the pain and everything that I jumped up and hugged him tight. I grabed a hold of his cloths and embraced the moment "Zuko" i whispered as I kissed him on the neck. "You were unconsues Azula did this it was a surprise attack" said Zuko. "Yea no kidding I know all her moves but I have to say Iroh you're lucky if I hadent been there you would have been shoot and this isn't the first time, ow, but all I can think about is when I see her she'll have a cold lonely painful death she will pay" I said and started to cry I couldn't belive the baby was gone it couldn't be the baby had to be alive right. "Whats wrong? Why do you hate Azula so much" asked Zuko. "She killed you're son" I mummbled in anger and sadness. I saw Zuko's face went into shock he had no expression on his face but just stood shoked I could feel it and then I had forgotten Iroh was there his head was down knowing the pain I felt at this moment. "I'll kill her if its the last thing I do" I said lowely. Then I got up trying to walk. "You are in no condition to walk or move you must rest" said Iroh. "No I have to get going Aang is waiting for me I have to go" I said. "It's been 4 days scince the you were attacked" said Iroh. "Then they're gone" I said dissapointed I wanted to learn from Toph maybe I could I rember this episode all I have to do is the same type of training Aang is doing. I tried to get up and succeded but then I fell to the floor but was saved scince Zuko had catched me. "You need to rest" said Zuko. "No what I need is to train" I said shoveing him away and trying to get up again. I kept failing and got frusturated so I sat down. "Here have some tea" said Iroh. Well at least I didn't have to drink Zuko's horrible tea. I decided that the herbs could help my healing so I used the tea water to heal myself. "So uncle i've been thinking its a matter of time until I run into Azula again im going to need more advanced firebending if I want to protect Lulu and deafet here" said Zuko. "Ahem I don't need you to protect me I can take care of myself" I said. "Yea we can all tell by you're great conditions" said Zuko and then I made the earth shift up makeing him fly into the sky 6 feet high and then fall. I started to laugh while he started to rub his head. "I would have defeated her I had her but I didn't want to use bloodbending its to much of an easy defeat" I said. "Anyways I know what you're going to say she's my sister and I should be trying to get along with her" said Zuko. "No shes crazy and she needs to go down" said Iroh. "He's right Azula has to pay and how can you even think of getting along with her she killed you're son and he wasn't even born yet it's like abortion im so going to hell" I said worried. Iroh and Zuko looked at me confused. "It is time to resume you're training Prince Zuko" said Iroh. "What about me" I said trying to get up. "You need to rest" said Iroh. I sat back upset and watched as Iroh made tea they started to talk about lightning. "Lightning is a pure expression of firebending without aggresion it is not fueled by rage or emotion the way other firebending is, some call lightning the cold blooded fire it is precise and deadly like Azula" explained Iroh. "Wait how is it possible that me and Azula have the same power she's just pure evil and im pure innocence well for now" I said. "It seems that you are peaceful enough to make the lightning as well as Azula" said Iroh. "Yea I understand that but you said it's precise and deadly im not like that am I?" I asked. "Of course you arnt you're sweet" said Zuko gently rubbing my check. "No im not you can't judge a book by it's cover im not innocent im not good im as bad as Azula" I said then I got up and walked away.

It had been about fiffteen minutes scince I had walked out. I concentrated and was able to talk to Toph. "Hey I thought you guys would wait I told you too" I told Toph through my mind. "Whats going on" I heard Toph's mind say. "Im talking to you honey well at least you guys left or Zuko would have killed you guys" I told Toph. "Hey can you tell Aang, Katara and Sokka to work on they're writing and tell Sokka to train on his boxing he's getting pretty good on it" I told Toph. "Sure but whats boxing" asked Toph. "Its my worlds type of hand on combat it was the only thing I used in order to fight when I first arrived to this world" I explained. "Ohh and Toph please try to get along with Katara I know she can be a little you know bossy and shyt but she's just trying to help even though sometimes she never does" I said and could hear her laugh. "Okay bye I'll miss you" said Toph. "I'll miss you too" I said back she reminded me of myself as a girl I was glad she didn't have to go in my horrible path sometimes I still had flashbacks of the people's screams. When I opened my eyes I saw Zuko there and I smiled while he looked at me confused. "What?" I asked in a cheerful voice and a excited smile. "You shouldn't try to hide it I can see through you're pain" said Zuko concerned. "What are you talking about im perfectly fine and shouldn't you be working on you're lightning stuff" I asked. "Yea but I couldn't do it without clearing things out" Zuko said and knew I was ready to confess everything. "What do you mean? Everythings fine with me and you need to train so go" I told him. "No tell me whats going on, what did you mean you werent innocent" Said Zuko in his commanding voice. "You never change do you sweety" I said laughing a bit then he looked at me with a feirce face and I sighed. "Its sorta of a long childhood story" I told him then he sat next to me and put his arms around my shoulder. "We have time" said Zuko. I sighed again "well when I was 14 I got tierd of always being the perfect, sweet, and obediant girl. I was sick of always being told what to do and haveing to be quite do nothing and be as told so I turned into a rebel against my parents I got peircings like the one on my stomach and the one on my nose I even have a tattoo on my back that say's Mexico. I was a total mess I started smokeing pot and drinking then one day I joined a gang or so I thought" I told him. "Whats pot and a gang" Asked Zuko. "Pot is a illegal plant that actually does no harm just cures pain and makes you hullusinate and get really hungry afterwards and a gang is a group of people who do bad things like kill, and mug people but they're just amatures but what I thought was a simple gang was much worse" I told him and turned my face away from him. "I had been part of the Mafia it was so bad and feirce that even the top soliders and police wouldn't mess with them and when I had found out what I was in I knew I had no hope the only way out was death" I said. "The Mafia is feared of every person in the world you join theres no way out but death it was impossible or so I thought, when I had joined they had information of my family they told me I was a perfect person a innocent clean girl with no bad record I was perfect to do there dirty work and sneak past police from all over" I said. "I had no choice even if I died they would kill my family I couldn't risk that. I would sneak out to give people they're pot and sell it, I aslo sold guns I had bought two for myself I had one in my car and the other in my room my parents worried about me the way I was always mad and angry the way I avoided everyone and I started to fail at school and was away from my freinds I started to leave school to do extra jobs that the Mafia wanted me to do I couldn't do anything I was so hopeless I knew I was going to die any day from this job everyday was a struggle to survive to pleade God to give me some hope or chance to leave and forget the path I was on. Even though I turned my back on everyone I loved my family and freinds there was one person that had hope for me, Leslie, she tried to talk to me she worried about me but I pushed her away telling her to not get close or she would be killed but she somehow did something to help. Three months after the bussines I was doing well and they promoted me to the next level I had started in basic traing of boxing and I got into a higher form of boxing kickboxing and started to train in pocket knives for protection and to do my jobs. My partner was a man he was young about you're age he was nice to me and was surprised I hadn't been violated yet in my first night of the job he told me not to get scared scince it was my first night I would be an accoplise for a few nights and then I'd be doing the actual work. On my first night he killed a man and a four year old boy. All I could hear was the screams but I could see the image's of the frightened and terrified people when I was in my world I always heard those screams regretting everything so badly my life was horrible I killed people I was a monster with no heart that's why I had never been able to love in fear that I would have more people in danger and here it's the same" I said to him. "It was just a mistake" said Zuko grabing my shoulder. "No I decided in that path to kill that family I was required to in order to protect my family I didn't know how I was able to live with a heart as cruel as mine" I said. "You did what you thought was right it wasn't you're fault" said Zuko. "Zuko you know damn well it was my fault I killed those two parents and three little girls with my two bare hands and my pocket knife my hands are scared with the familys blood im a monster a killer im horrible I even killed my own son" I said rembering the baby Zuko I was going to call name him after Zuko and call him Junior like my brother. "You didn't kill our son Azula did you know that" said Zuko. "Yea well maybe if we never did anything we wouldn't be worrieid I think I prefer the dream where I saw him taken away that way I would have hope of him being alive" I said. "Well how did you get out? You seem so nice so calm so innicent" said Zuko. " I was able to leave when after a under cover cop that was able to rescue me. My parents found out and I had to go to counciling wich I hated but you never fell in love with the real me you fell inlove with my sweet personality but not my killing attitude" I said. "No I fell inlove with everything about you" said Zuko. "You're seem a lot like a feirce firenation soilder almost like Azula you have no fear" said Zuko. "That's what I hate being compared to Azula and I was never scared because there was nothing I loved here until I meet you and my other freinds" I told him. "Well I love you more than anything in this world or in any other world" said Zuko and hugged me tightly. Then I started to kiss him then I felt him start to put his hand into my shirt then I took it out. "No not in the open and im not ready for anything like that not yet" I said rembering baby Zuko. "Okay im going to go talk to uncle" said Zuko. "Ill be training" I said then he dissapeared.
