Lu Ten took Tia to the deck of the ship. The little girl struggled to be released from the boys grasp but it was no use.
"Father," Lu Ten greeted and bowed in the Fire Nation traditional way.
"Lu Ten I thought you were training in the car..." Iroh stopped in mid sentence as he looked in shock.
"I found the Chief's daughter in the cargo hold," Lu Ten announced.
"I'm sorry for getting on your ship! Please don't kill me!" The little girl begged to the two royals.
"No we are gonna take you back home, where you belong!" Lu Ten yelled.
"Please don't take me home! I want to come with you!" Tia cried.
"What should we do father?" The Prince asked.
Iroh didn't answer.
"Father what should we do?" He asked again.
Iroh walked towards the two child and kneeled down to get to their level of high.
He looked at Tia and said, "Tia why do you want to come with us?"
"Because I want to see the world Mr.Ten, you guys get to see the world while I am stuck home with my father," Tia explained.
Iroh smiles.
"If we allowed you to come along with us kiddo, and even though your father will be angry, will you promise not to cause trouble?" Iroh asked.
"Yes," Tia answered with a bright smile.
"Well then welcome to the Fire Nation, you're now our newest and youngest recruit in the Fire Legion."
"Yay!"
"WHAT?!" Lu Ten shouted in confusion.
"Father she's too young to be in the military," Lu Ten explained.
"My beloved son you're just one year older than her, and your friend Kaen is the same age as her, so I think she is welcome to come," Iroh said in a calm voice.
"Aw fine but I am not gonna share a room with her!" Lu Ten shouted.
