After my little duel with the fire princess I went back to exploring the city before going back to the Lakon's home. Wondering when my date with Ty Lee would be, I was genuinely curious. With a smile I entered the house. Being greeted by Sakura.
"How was your day?" Sakura inquired.
"It was interesting," I chuckled, "I had a fight,"
Sakura eyed me for a second, before asking, "A fight? With?"
"Azula," I sighed.
"... Did you win?" Sakura asked.
"I did, and learned a lot from her," I nodded, surprised she wasn't scolding me for fighting the fire princess.
"Well, now we wait," Sakura sighed.
"For what?" I blinked.
"To see if the princess will take this as an insult or a challenge," Sakura sighed.
Probably an insult, that girl is in serious need of psychological help, "We'll see,"
———————————————————————
And the days passed, and I was fully expecting the fire princess to come for revenge with an army, or her father to declare me a traitor to the nation, but surprisingly enough, none of that had happened yet. So I took my sweet time exploring the city and every little restaurant I could get my hands to, I wasn't gonna lie. I was enjoying this, it was relaxing.
None hated me here, being a noble and all, I was loved by some people and ignored by others, which in turn made my empath powers for the first time in a long time feel good. Especially inside the Lakon's home. Sakura and her parents loved me. And as corny as it sounds it feels good to be loved. Especially when you can freaking taste like food every emotion.
As for the date I was promised, well, I was still waiting for Ty Lee to come, but by this point I was sure, Azula intimidated her out of the date. I can't picture Azula being okay with Ty Lee dating the guy that defeated her.
"Oh well," I chuckled.

[Ty Lee POV]
When I told Azula she had a date with the big… strong, handsome, and powerful Akira, she flipped. It was adorable seeing her getting flustered. I knew she didn't dislike this, otherwise she would've let me know very violently. Instead she was nervous, for the first time in my life, both in mine and Mai's life, Azula was nervous.
"Why would I date the guy that… humiliated me," Azula muttered, trying to sound angry… at first she was… but now that the prospect of a date was in her horizon… that anger was gone… she was intrigued by Akira, about his prowess in battle, she wanted to date him.
"I have to agree with Ty Lee… god that sounds wrong," Mai sighed, "But he seems like your type.."
"Yes powerful, handsome, and… well equipped," I giggled.
"Well equipped… indeed he was… his techniques were flawless," Azula commented, with the sexual innuendo flying over her head, she was going to need more help than I had originally anticipated; she's like a baby on this matter, "I might learn a thing or two, improving my own technique!"
Mai sighed, "So… are we doing this?"
"Come on Azula… I know you like him," I teased her.
"Fine…" Azula relented, first time for everything, "But you two better help me! For if I fail of this mission I will burn you two down!"
And there it was our old Azula was back, barking at us, "Don't worry… if Akira doesn't kiss you by the end of the date! I will jump into your fire!" Yep, that's how good I was.
"As long as you two have that clear…" Azula nodded, fire igniting on her hands, "Very well, I will go to this date… and like everything I will succeed! Burning anything on my way!" By this point everything was burning around her, while she laughed like a maniac.
"Alright… first tip… tone that down… a few hundred levels," Maybe I should've promised another thing.
"We are going to die… she will scare Akira out… and we will burn," Mai whispered to my ear.
"Don't be silly, Akira can take that and more…" I sure hope so.

[Akira POV - 2 DAYS LATER]
There were a few things I didn't expect in life, things I considered borderline impossible, like Sokka defeating me, Pakku being funny, Vaatu dancing, and stuff along those lines. Today, one of those impossible… or rather improbable things happened.
Azula was at my doorstep, dressed with a cute outfit instead of her uniform, looking at me… her emotions made everything clear, Ty Lee had tricked me, Azula was nervous, which was something I didn't expect from her. I expected anger… hate, maybe even envy. But none of that, just a girl… a crazy one at that, being nervous.
"I have come for our date," Azula stated.
"I see," I replied.
"Do you need more time getting ready?" Azula inquired with a very awkward smile, her emotions flaring with the idea of getting rejected, making me wonder… why was she so invested on this, why was a date with a random guy so important to her.
"I…" I wanted to say no, and leave her… but I just couldn't, "Give me five minutes to change my attire…" add a compliment Akira, she might be crazy but still looks kinda cute, and she doesn't need another reason to go even more crazy, "I need after all to match your looks, though I doubt I will look quite as good," alright that's good enough.
"Very well," Azula nodded still with a very awkward smile, blushing a bit, "I will wait here,"
———————————————————————-
Sakura looked at me, and Azula outside from the window, as I dressed, "You are having a date… with her?"
"I… to be honest when I accepted I thought it was with Ty Lee," I sighed.
"The girl you defeated?" Sakura inquired.
"Yes," I nodded.
"The fire princess?"
"Yes," I nodded once again.
"I don't know if I should be proud of you… or angry," Sakura added, "Meh, I'll be both, proudngry,"
"Don't worry, I doubt she will want to date me more than once," I winked.
"I don't know," Sakura commented with a smile, "she seems kinda invested on this,"
Well, fuck it. Who knows maybe she isn't as crazy as the show showed her to be, maybe she's just an entitled child. No akira, you know she's crazy, stop trying to find reasons to make this a sound decision.
I sighed, "Fuck,"
