Episode 21, Sozin's Comet: Part 4: Avatar Aang

Zuko laying there shattered my heart into pieces. Then he moved slighlty and let out a groan.

I gasped and wiped my eyes and took a breath before quickly getting up and running up to Zuko. I needed to heal him before it was to late.

However, I didn't get far as Azula shot lightning my way, laughing like a maniac.

I jumped out of the way before she could hit me. She smirked and walked up to me as she conjured more lightning. "I'd rather our family physician look after little Zuzu, if you don't mind." Then without any warning she attacked me again. I ran under the roof, hiding behind a pillar. This girl lost her mind.

I peeked out from behind it and saw her smiling at Zuko. "You don't look so good Zuzu," she mocked and I bit my lip.

Turning away, I closed my eyes. I needed to think of something quickly.

Azula let out another scream before the pillar behind me exploded. I ran along the way and stopped at another pillar when I saw a foutain. I used all of the water and send it her way. But I noticed too late that she wasn't there anymore.

Knitting my eyebrows, I looked around but she wasn't anywhere. That's when I heard footsteps on the roof. Azula jumped off the roof behind me and send a burst of fire my way.

Gasping, I used water to counter her attack. Then I manipulated some more water beneath me and used the wave to get away from her quickly.

She shot fire out of her feet and flew after me while sending fire punches my way. I looked over my shoulder and at that moment fire hit me. Letting out a grunt, the water splashed on the ground and I fell on the ground.

I panted with wide eyes. She was going to kill me if I didn't do anything. My grip on the floor tightened and that's when I noticed that the floor was a metal grind with water flowing beneath it. Looking up, I saw a chain hanging loosely on the pillar opposite of me and smiled. Thank the spirits.

I got up quickly and snatched the chain. Azula came up to me with a scowl on her face. "There you are, filthy peasant," she spat and glared at me.

I concentrated on her blood and before she could hit me with lightning or fire I made her stop in her tracks. Stretching out my hand I slowly moved it to myself and made her walk onto the grind. "What are you doing to me?!" Azula screamed and tried to move but I didn't let her.

"I am ending this," I said and bend my fingers down. She got on her knees and hysterically shouted for me to stop. Keeping her under my control, I walked up behind her and tied up her hands behind her back onto the grind. Then I let her blood go and she immediately tried to wiggle free.

I ignored her and ran up to Zuko as I took out the spirit water from the North Pole. Kneeling beside, him I opened the vial to get the water around my hands. Then I put my hands over the wound on his chest.

Tears were rolling down my cheeks as the water started glowing and the wound consumed all of it. "Open your eyes you idiot." A sob left my lips when he didn't show any reaction. "Don't you dare leaving me," I cried while putting my forehead on his chest holding him tight.

He still didn't move and I lifted up my head. Putting a hand on his cheek, I stroke the hair out of his face and sniffed before whispering, "I love you." My bottom lip trembled and I cried again, shutting my eyes tightly.

I felt a hand on mine and opened my eyes. Zuko pulled my hand away from his cheek and intertwined our fingers with a small smile on his lips. "I love you too," he whispered and his voice cracked.
