The Royals Of The Fire Nation

Kiyoshi Island

Lin-Zee was meditating on the bow on Zuko's ship with her eyes closed listening to the sounds of the waves below her.Despite not being from the Water Tribe Lin-Zee had always loved the sound of the ocean-It was one of the reasons why she enjoyed her family trips the others reasons were watching Love Amongst the Dragons and watching Zuko and Azula and sometimes Sozin II and Kazami recreate the final duel.

Although her eyes were closed she recognised the footsteps that were approaching her and who they belonged to.

Lin-Zee: Uncle are you finally going to explain to ne why you asked me to join you on this quest you know Father won't be happy when hw finds out.

Iroh: You've grown so much since i left the Fire Nation lotus.Lin-Zee couldn't help but  smile you were only 16 when i left, a child.

Lin-Zee: A lot has happened in the last two years I'm no longer a child I'm the Crown Princess of the Fire Nation I know where my duty lies.

Iroh: Yes of course I just wish i was around to see you grow.

Lin-Zee: Uncle I've never been angry with you for leaving I'm honoured to have a uncle who has been more a father then My Biological Father You're all that Zuko has.

Iroh: He has you too.

Lin-Zee: I'll always try to be there for my family but some times it'll never be enough.She decided to lighten up the conversation.

Lin-Zee: Now stop stalling Why did you ask me to join you?

Iroh:Always a clever one While we were at the naval yard I had an interesting conversation with Commander Zhao about you.

Lin-Zee: Really and what was it about.

Iroh:He asked for your hand in marriage.

Silence followed as Lin-Zee takes in the news she received she closed her eyes probably thinking about this she opens them and faces her uncle.

Lin-Zee: Interesting and what was your response?

Iroh: I said no of course However i think you'll have to be careful around him.

Lin-Zee: Of course thanks for letting me know Uncle.Did you bring me abroad to tell me that?

Iroh: You know me too well There was one other thing.I would like you to stay abroad for a while to help Zuko.

Lin-Zee: Uncle as much i would want to help we both know Father wouldn't allow it.

Iroh: Just for a few days maybe for a few weeks.This is going to be a difficult time for Prince Zuko especially with what happend with Kazami and if anyone can keep him calm it's you.

Lin-Zee: Alright fine but not for too long.

Iroh: Great You can come with me to tell Prince Zuko the bad news.

Lin-Zee:*mind* What am i getting my self into.

Knocking gently on Zuko's door Lin-Zee waited for Zuko to open it when he didnt her uncle decided to barge in In the room Sat Zuko mediating with four white candles in front of him the lights from the candles was increasing and decreasing with Zuko's rhythmic breathing.

Zuko: The only reason you should be interrupting me is if you have news about the Avatar and Kazami.

Iroh: Well there is news,Prince Zuko but you might not like it Don't get too upset.

Zuko: Uncle, you taught me that keeping a level head is a sign of a great leader.Now whatever you have to say I'm sure that I can take it.Lin-Zee smirked knowing that he couldn't take it.
