As we finally descend the ship making a quick pit stop to collect supplies I notice a certain eager brother next to me.

Zuko: Uncle, I want the repairs made as quickly as possible. I don't want to stay too long and risk losing his trail.

Uncle: [Disinterested.] Do you mean the Avatar?

Zuko: [Turns around sharply to face Iroh, as he slightly backs off.] Don't mention his name on these docks! Once word gets out that he's alive, every firebender will be out looking for him, and I don't want anyone getting in the way!

Zhao: Getting in the way of what, Prince Zuko?

The man walks over to us with his hands held behind his back. Zuko awaits him with his arms crossed with contempt, while Iroh stares at him.

Zuko: Captain Zhao

Zhao: It's commander now. And [Bows slightly in uncle's direction.] General Iroh. The great hero of our nation.

Uncle: [Bows back.] Retired general.

Zhao: The Fire Lord's brother and children
are welcome guests anytime. What brings you to my harbor?

Uncle: Our ship is being repaired. [Uncle points towards our damaged ship]

Zhao: That's quite a bit of damage.

Zuko: Yes. [He holds up one finger, while uncle stares disinterested in front of him.] You wouldn't believe what happened. [He glances at me, and angrily commands me as he gestures at Zhao.] Y/n! Tell Commander Zhao what happened.

Y/n: [my eyes open in disinterest, as I'm addressed by Zuko.] Yes. I will do that. [I say nonchalantly.] It all happened so quickly and we ended up crashing right into an Earth Kingdom ship.

Zhao: [In disbelief.] Really? It would be best if you regaled me with all of the thrilling details. [Smirks lustfully while he gets into my face] Join me for a drink?

Zuko: [He averts his gaze and begins to walk away. While pulling me away protectively] Sorry, but we have to go.

Zhao smiles evilly at him as he starts to walk away, but after a few steps, Iroh places his hand on his shoulder to hold him back.

Uncle: Prince Zuko, show Commander Zhao your respect. [Removes his hand from Zuko's shoulder as he faces Zhao while Zuko just slants his eyes.] We would be honored to join you. Do you have any ginseng tea? It's my favorite.

Zuko grunts in anger upon hearing Iroh's tea comment. He growls angrily and firebends a small arc out of annoyance as he turns to walk after them.

We enter a tent guarded by two fire nation soldiers. Zhao walks inside the tent and stops in front of a large map that is hung up on the wall. He holds his hands behind his back.

Zhao: ...And by the year's end, the Earth Kingdom capital will be under our rule. The Fire Lord will finally claim victory in this war.

Zuko: [Angrily.] If my father thinks the rest of the world will follow him willingly, then he is a fool!

Zhao: [Pulls up alongside Zuko and smirks.] Two years at sea have done little to temper your tongue. So, how is your search for the Avatar going?

Iroh knocks over a weapon display behind them. The weapons come crashing down with a lot of noise. The general cowers at the noise and the damage he wrecked. Zhao turns around looking annoyed. I use this opportunity to sneak out of such an overwhelming conversation. I roam around the different tents in search of a lounge area and I finally find one. I roam around the room and find something interesting to read and sit down on one of the chairs inside the tent.
