Chapter 23: Chasing the Ship (tear jerker)

Zuko gently pushed the so called "Ashlin" into his meeting room. He was kind of nervous. He knew that she and Icelin had the same face, same body, same voice. The only thing different was that this girl was water tribe and had a completely different hair color. Zuko wasn't able to face her.

Zuko: Who are you?

Icelin desperately wanted to tell him it was her... but she knew that so many things would happen if she did. She knew that she wouldn't be able to hang out with Sokka, Katara, and Aang... well maybe Aang if he did stay on the ship... she knew that Zuko might not accept her like this or would he?, and she knew that Iroh wouldn't let her back.

Zuko's patience was running out. His palms were beginning to sweat and he knew that he probably looked ridiculous right now. He slowly asked again.

Zuko: Who...are...you?

No answer. Zuko totally lost it and felt the anger and anxiety rising.

Zuko: Well? Who are you?!

Icelin: Even if I did tell you, you wouldn't care.

Zuko walked up to her and grabbed her wrists. He looked her so hard in the eye, that it was painful.

Zuko: You're Icelin, aren't you?

She had finally made her decision.

Icelin: Who's Icelin?

Zuko backed away from her.

Zuko: Stop playing games with me, Icelin. I know it's you. In case you haven't noticed, I remembered exactly how you look. You think you're fooling me, cuz you dyed your hair and changed your outfit. Don't give me tihs s***!

Icelin: OK, you caught me. But I know what you're gonna do.

Zuko: Oh relly? What?

Icelin: You're gonna try and make me stay. *walks away from him* You know Iroh won't let me.:(

Zuko: Who cares about my uncle? He's old and fat. He doesn't know what he's talking about:x

Icelin: You're lying...

Zuko: I'M NOT!! Ever since you left, I've been miserable. I finally find you and you're treating me like crap. Just stay with me.

Icelin: I'd love to. But, I mean, look at me! I have this new look and everyone thinks I'm just some water tribe girl. Even if Stirron were to get out of jail again, he wouldn't find me. I have new friends and people who care for me. I'm living the PERFECT life!

Zuko: You can't say that. Who saved you from Stirron? I did. Who treated you like a princess and got your every needs? I did. Who got Stirron locked in the high tech security system? I did. Who gave you the perfect life?! I DID!!

Zuko walked over to the corner to hide his tears. The cold walls made him feel worse. He didn't ask for money. All he asked for was his girlfriend.

Zuko: You know, I still remember our kiss. The one before you left. Every single night, I replay the scene. I remembere what you were wearing, what your hair looked like.

Icelin could feel a lump in her neck.

Zuko: But I guess that reality is over now. I guess it never really happened. On the count of three, I'm gonna open my eyes and be the thirteen year old without the scar and a father who loves me and my mother will be there too.

Icelin could hardly look at him. She knew there would be some drama after three.

Zuko: One...

Icelin:'Zuko, don't. You'll hurt yourself.'

Zuko:...Two...Three!*opens eyes*

He saw the wall in front of him. He pulled a mirror off the table next to him... and he saw himself. He saw the horror in his eyes. He still had the scar.

Zuko threw the mirror at the opposite wall causing the glass to shatter to a million pieces. He slowly fell as the tears came faster. Icelin ran over to him and hugged him. She could feel the tiny tears get bigger and bigger as they rolled down her neck. She had never seen him like this.

Zuko pressed against her even harder so he could cry harder and louder and let it all out. Icelin gently kissed him.

Icelin: I'll stay only for you. But you have to promise me something.

Zuko: Hmmm?

Icelin: You can only call me Ashlin and you have to keep me as a prisoner.

Katara was packing her belongings up. She would follow the fire bender's ship and get Aang back. Except she had no idea how.

Sokka ran up to her.

Sokka: *panting* Katara, what are you doing?

Katara: I'm getting Aang back and you can't stop me!

Sokka: But Katara-

Katara: No Sokka! I'm doing what I want to do.

Sokka: Katara I already packed th boat up.

Katara: What?

Sokka: Do you want to save Aang or what?

Katara hugged Sokka.

Katara: Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sokka: Now let's go save your boyfriend.

Katara: He's not my boyfriend.

Sokka: Whatever.

The two got in the boat when someone stopped them.

Gran Gran: And where are you two going?

Katara/Sokka: Uhhhh. Somewhere?

Gran Gran: :) If you're lgoing to save the Avatar, you might want something faster*points to appa*

Katara: :o Thank you soooooo much!

Sokka: I'll go pack Appa up.

Zuko was inspecting Aang. He already had Icelin in the nicest prisoner's room and had left her with a big kiss.

Zuko:*takes his staff* This will make a great present for my father. *hands it to Iroh* Put him in the prisoner's room. I'm gonna go inspect that other peasant.

Aang::x You better not hurt her!

Zuko: Do you want to end up swimming with the fishes tonight?

Aang: No?

Zuko: Then I suggest you shut up and let me do my work.

Zuko left Aang and headed to the bottom of the ship. He past tons of cellars until he finally got to the one he wanted. He opened the door and made sure no one else was in the hallway. He shut the door and locked it.

Icelin was lying upside down on her couch which she was guessing was supposed to be a bed.

Icelin: Back?

Zuko knelt next to her couch and wrapped his arms around her. Kissing her gently on the neck he began to talk between every kiss.

Zuko:*kiss* We're heading back for the fire nation now. The night before we get there *kiss* we can dye your hair back to it's original color. Then I'll tell my uncle that it was you all along and he won't be able to do anything because as soon as we're back in fire nation waters I'm contacting my father and telling him we have the Avatar and I'm bringing back a famous super model I met along the way. *kiss, kiss, kiss* That way, no one will consider you "water tribe* and I have your old clothes so you can use them.

Icelin: Good plan. Have you been working on your kissing?

Zuko: No why?

Icelin: You're really good.

Zuko: :) Thanks. *lip kiss*

Someone knocked on the door. Zuko stood up to go and get. Icelin sat up and tried to look miserable.

Zuko: What?

Guard: Um, sir? The Avatar escaped.

Zuko: :shock:*runs out of the room*

Guard: So... wanna get to third base?

Icelin::o Excuse me, but I'm a lesbian with AIDS!

Guard: You know what? Never mind...*shuts the door and locks it*

Icelin::lol:

Aang, Katara, and Sokka were fighting all the fire benders.

Katara: Aang!

Aang: Yeah?

Katara: Where's Ashlin?

Aang: I couldn't find her*dodges fireball* Zuko must've hid her.

Sokka: Great...

Britarzyna and Alexianna had come along and were hiding on Appa.

Alexianna: don't worry! Ashlin gets captured by fire benders a lot. I'm sure she can handle this one!

Sokka: Can I ask you guys something?

Everyone: Yeah?

Sokka: Can we please get the heck outta here?!
Aang: Great idea!

everyone hopped onto Appa.

Aang: Yip yip!

Appa flew into the sky. Iroh and Zuko formed to huge fireballs and aimed them at appa. Aang used his airbending to make the balls hit an ice berg.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!!

All the ice fell on the ship; they weere stuck...

Zuko: Crap!

iroh: good thing we have boat insurance.:?
