Wanting to be loved (Zuko)

25.

After a couple days of being on the water it was nice to walk on land again. Zuko agreed with Iroh to let me walk around since I can't escape with my knee. After we were found out by Iroh Zuko hasn't been near me.

Just as I wanted to leave the ship a huge animal with a woman on top jumped on it. The animal began sniffing and Zuko came running to see what was happening. 'What are you doing on my ship?!' Zuko asked the woman 'I'm looking for a stowaway' she answered him and her animal tore a piece of the ship out to make a hole 'There is no stowaway on my ship, now get off!' he was getting angry. Then a man came out of the hole in the ship and was running away but the tongue of the animal hit him and he was paralyzed.

She said it's what a shirshu can do then she took the man and jumped off the ship. 'So yeah I'm going now. I will be back in an hour.' I said and wanted to walk away but a hand held me back so I looked up and saw it was Zuko 'You're not going anywhere but with me, now!' why is he angry with me I didn't wreck his ship. I wanted to pull away but he pulled me back and threw me over his shoulder and started walking. You've got to be kidding me! 'Put me down immediately!' I warned him but he just kept walking. We were now on the stairs and I started to kick with my legs 'If you want to fall down head first keep going' he said annoyed and I held still but when we were upstairs I started kicking again he opened a door and walked in and locked the door then he threw me on the bed.

I looked around and found out it was Zuko's room. Then I just looked at him as he walked over to me. 'Why are you acting like this?' I tried to ask him calm but he ignored me and just looked at me as he set both hands on each side of my face. 'Why are you acting like this?!' I asked again and my patience was running out not that I had much to begin with. He leaned down and tried to kiss me but I refused him. I didn't want any of this if he is treating me like this and gives no explanation whatsoever.

But this made him even angrier and I shoved away but the only way I could go to was the wall, this was a bad move. He came to me again and grabbed my face with one hand and tried to kiss me again. But now I held his face back with my hands, now he was furious. He grabbed my hands with just one hand and held them above my head and with the other one he grabbed my face again and now he succeeded and he kissed me. I held my mouth closed so he still couldn't get what he wanted because I know that he wouldn't be satisfied with just this.

He pulled his face away and let's go of my face and then my hands. I thought he would give up, but I was wrong. He threw me on the floor and I gasped for air when I landed. He was on top of me already and quickly put his tongue in my mouth. I tried to get him off but he held my hands again and held my legs in place with his. With his other hand he trailed along my body, this was so not going to happen and I bit his tongue. Instantly he let me go and I stand up quick and run to the door and closed it again. I had just one thought, I need to get off this ship right now!

I ran down the stairs by now my knee hurt a lot but I kept running and heard him screaming behind me but I didn't take a moment to look at him. I ran across the deck but I wasn't fast enough. Then Iroh saw me as he came walking up the ship and saw my look and then Zuko who was running towards me. He quickly walked my way and stood beside me. 'What's going on?' he only asked. 'Nothing! Get her and put her in her cell, now!' he answered and then ordered a guard.

'You're not putting me there!' I said and took a step to him. Zuko wanted to attack me and I was ready to avoid his flames but Iroh stepped in and pushed Zuko away. 'I will take her to her room and you do not go near her! You hear me!' he said to Zuko and helped me walk to my room when we got there I sat on the bed and Iroh looked at my knee. It was a little swollen because I used it to much. 'Are you going to tell me what happened?' he asked me but not demanding an answer. 'Nothing happened' I said and he nodded and walked out of my room.

I couldn't answer him, I didn't even know what happened. I had no idea why he reacted that way towards me. It was getting dark outside and I heard Iroh leave his room and talk to Zuko they were talking about that woman from this morning and she could help him because he had that thing, and that was all I could make out of it.

Then the puzzle clicked he has Katara's necklace and he was going to use it to find Aang. I had to follow them. When I was sure they were gone I walked out and quietly followed them but kept enough distance so they wouldn't notice me. They walked in some bar and not long after they went in they came out with that woman. Then there it was, the necklace, she let her animal smell it and they got on. Then they ran away. How was I going to follow them?
