"Hey, I remember her, she helped you attack us!" Sokka said shooting a deadly look at Zuko.
"Yup, back in the good old days," Zuko said awkwardly.
"Just watch," Iris said placing her hand on Sokka's shoulder briefly and then she walked in front of them.
Iris took the dagger she had on her right hand and she threw it right in the middle of the wooden column stopping June from walking further. Everyone turned and looked at her and every other noise in the tavern silenced. June smiled evilly when she once again saw her 'sister' in arms.
June and Iris walked towards each other for a small moment and then they attacked each other.
"What the heck?" Sokka asked.
June took out her whip and she tried to wrap it around Iris's feet but Iris jumped avoiding it and she took out two of her daggers at her hands. Iris tried to create a cut at her friend's face but June bowed avoiding it and she slipped behind Iris. June tried to pass her feet under Iris's but Iris jumped. Iris turned around, she climbed on June, passing her one foot at June's head and drifting her on the ground.
June fell down with Iris standing in front of her in a perfect stance. June immediately got in her stance and they both placed their daggers in each others' throat, looking seriously for a long moment.
"You said they were friends," Suki whispered at Zuko.
"That's what Iris said," Zuko said surprised and he shrugged confusedly.
Then Iris and June started laughing. They pulled their daggers away and they hugged each other for a small moment.
"It's good to see you, sister," Iris said pulling back.
"Good to see you too, sister..." June said and they both sat on the table in the middle. All the others around returned to their dinner. "...nice moves, you've been practicing," June said.
"Let's say that I was," Iris said raising an eyebrow.
Then Zuko and the others walked towards them. "Oh, great, it's Prince Pouty. Where's your creepy grandpa?" June asked Zuko boringly.
"He's my uncle, and he's not here," Zuko said.
"What are you doing with this idiot?" June asked and she turned at Iris who was sitting at the other side of the table.
Zuko looked angrily at June and Iris and she answered "Interests are in line, sister. This guy will become Fire Lord if we kill Ozai. Will you help us?"
"It depends," June said taking a sip from her tea. And then she looked at Zuko and Katara "I see you worked things out with your girlfriend,"
"She's not my girlfriend!"
"I'm not his girlfriend!"Katara and Zuko both shouted.
June took another sip from her tea "Okay, okay... sheesh, I'm only teasing. So where can I help you, sister?" She asked looking at Iris.
"As I was saying, we need to find the Avatar and defeat Ozai..." Iris said and then she nudged over at Zuko's direction "...If this guy becomes Fire Lord, we'll be covered in gold," Iris said smirking.
June smiled and she let the teacup down "You got a deal,"
They all walked out of the tavern. June had taken a piece of meat in her hands to feed her beast.
"Nyla!" June said and she threw it in her Shirshu's mouth. She walked towards it and she started caressing its head "Who's my little Snuffly-Wuffly," the Shirshu immediately unleashed its tongue to hit some of the others but June immediately jerked its head down "Whoah, careful there," and then she turned at the others "...okay, so who's got something with the Avatar's scent on it?"
