Azula opens the roof door with a sweet smile on her face. She watches as Korra floats down to meet her. "Well, well, well Korra Santo as I live and breathe. To what do I owe the honor?" She says with a bow.
Korra grits her teeth. All she wanted to do in that moment was smash Azula's face in. She clinches her fist in an effort to control herself. "You know what I'm here for."
The princess smirks as she gazes into Korra's eyes. "Mmm…such a sweet talker. Just like my father. He said those exact words the day he confirmed my womanhood. What I wouldn't give to experience that pain again, mmm…" Azula cups her hands behind her back and begins to stroll around the roof. "He was my first you know. I was nine years old. I'll never forget that day. That was the day I decided he needed to die." She glances at Korra. "See I wanted him to be my first too. My first and only kill."
The Avatar glares at her. "I wanna know what you think Katara's been telling you."
Azula smiles continuing her stroll. "I spent four years plotting and planning his death. I left the police obvious clues connecting Ozai to his crimes. And he was finally caught. I can't even begin to tell you how happy I was. My father was finally going to get what he deserved. But then you came along…and defended him. You knew he was guilty…(she chuckles darkly) and you saved him. I was in court that day you know. I watched you bend the laws; spoon feeding the jury a steaming pile of legal shit. Of course they happily swallowed it. Those laced words came from the honorable Korra Santo. A woman who only defends the innocent."
She stands behind the water tribe woman. "I don't bare any ill will towards you though." She moves to face Korra. "Because this isn't your world, right? If you were home you'd never save the life of a cold blooded murderer. Not like Aang did." She cups Korra's cheek. "Tell me something Avatar. Do you like this world?"
Korra smacks her hand away. "I didn't come here for your life story."
Azula grabs her wrist. "Oh I know. But you won't get what you came for until you answer my question." The Avatar tries to yank her hand away. Azula's grip is too tight. Korra bends a flame in her left hand. The amber eyed woman smirks. "Mmm, that's right. Do it. I want you to. Go ahead, take your revenge. I raped your woman and your best friend… and I enjoyed it. That's the nature of this world you know. Dog fuck dog they say." She releases the Avatar's hand then moves to whisper in her ear. "Your boy toy cried when I penetrated him. I used something special to do it too. Would you like to guess what it…"
Korra punches her solidly in the stomach dropping Azula to her knees. "I hate that this world has turned you into someone like this."
Azula catches her breath. "That's…a very good…answer. It's incorrect, but it's still a good answer. Hate. You're going to need that." She gets to her feet blowing Korra a kiss. "Thank you."
Korra averts her eyes. "Is Katara talking to you?"
"Yes she is." Azula says.
"My Katara?"
Azula smirks. "Yes, 'your' Katara."
Korra swallows hard. "What is she telling you?"
"Oh, this and that; just girl talk mostly. You know how she can be." The deranged princess muses.
"Is she telling you to kill people?" Korra says lowering her eyes.
"Wow, that's a surprise. Is she talking to you too? She told me you didn't have the capacity to hear her." Azula says sounding completely serious.
The Avatar half smiles, shaking her head. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. That was all she needed to hear. There was no way Katara was communicating with someone like Azula.
