The Sovereign

The Heros

"Why does he wear a mask?" Azula was enjoying a cup of tea with Columbia in what looked like Their new home.

"I suppose to keep a level of anonymity. Not every one of the harbingers likes killing for what's right but sometimes we have to. It's so he can go home and be a different, better, cleaner man." Columbia smiled.

"Is he single?" Azula questioned.

"For a matter of a fact he is." Columbia giggled.

"Was that a weird question? Human emotions are complex." Azula realized it is not a question one typically asks.

"No not at all. A girl can have wants and needs." Columbia shook her head. "He is in fact single." As far as Columbia was aware, Capitano had never been in a relationship. Never had time with the Tsaritsa constantly having the harbingers complete jobs.

"I should get some sleep." Azula stood up and walked towards the section of the house both of their bedrooms were on. Azula closed the door to her room and started to unbutton her top. With the long sleeves her markings could be covered.

It seemed like smoke spiraled down her arms ending at the tip of her middle finger. The two spirals met on her back and there was a dragon on her spine. They were the marks that appeared when she was in her human form. Azula put a sweater on and then some short before tucking herself into bed.

She woke up early and took walk around the city of Snezhnaya. It was quiet and peaceful in the early morning. Although she enjoyed her walk she understood to need for the harbingers coats. As the nation of Cryo, the temperature was no surprise.

She arrived back to the house to see Columbia having tea with the captain. There was an extra cup of tea set out as well. Columbia motioned to the cup as Azula walked in.

"Thank you." She sat down and enjoyed the hot tea. She tuned out the conversation and focused on getting warmed up by the house heating and the hot tea.

"The kids around here look up to us like we are heroes. We even have our own merchandise." Columbia pulled out a plush of Capitano and herself. "The little sword is adorable."

"Someone is coming." Azula spoke up. Dottore came through the door seconds after.

"Fellow harbingers, dragon." He smirked. "I'm off to sumeru in a few days."

"Ok?" Capitano rolled his eyes, not like they could be seen from behind his mask.

"Came to check up on the sovereign, but seeing you three have a tea party sure is a parting gift." Dottore laughed. Azula snapped her fingers and burned Dottore's mask. "I just had that one made. Do you know who I am, the second harbinger."

"And I'm the first." Capitano stood towering over his colleague.

"Don't get you dick but off." Dottore walked out.

"At least he didn't say anything about science or biology this time." Azula poured herself more tea. "What brew is this? I'd like to get some more." The two harbingers looked at each other before looking at the pyro sovereign. Columbia started laughing.

"I like you." Columbia passed the sugar.

"Thank you." Azula smiled. "But I do say," she finished her second cup of tea, "we should get back to my training."

"Right." Columbia smiled and nodded. "Maybe we can have more when you two get back."

"Perhaps." Capitano replied. On their way out of the city they ran into a few kids shivering. Azula created crystalflies from her magic and made them surround the kids. She heard children cheering as they walked further. "How did you get in the box?"

"I have no recollection of it. I just remember part of my power being taken away then I woke up in the meeting hall." Azula noticed it had started snowing. "Snow." She smiled again.

"Help!" It was the voice of the kids they past. Capitano blinked and Azula disappeared. He looked back and saw the culprits surrounded by blue fire.

"Go home." Azula spoke to the kids. The kids ran away and Azula pulled out her weapon. "You should know better then to try and hurt kids." She glared at the two men. The two men seemed to be scared for their lives. It was the color of the flames. Pyro was classic fire so no one had seen blue fire. "Get out for here." She lifted the flame circle and put her weapon away. The men scrambled.

She looked back up at the sky and put her hand out to catch some snowflakes. She shut her eyes and let the cold air surround her once again. She seemed at peace.

"My sister has a wicked plan for me but I'm just happy I get to see other people again." Azula opened her eyes and looked at the first harbinger. A few snowflakes rested unchanged on her long eyelashes. Many had fallen on the top layer of her white hair and stayed like glitter. They continued walking and proceeded with the training.
