——————————————————————————
After a couple of nights where all we did was train and lets us submerge into the pleasure of carnal desires, I was more conflicted than ever, I had taken Azula to bed, knowing full well she might reject me when she discovers who I truly am. So I found myself with two options, for one, I could tell her everything and rip that bandaid off, or I could just go with the flow and let the canon events play out and try to avoid confrontation.
But even then, she would eventually know, and the longer I waited to tell her the truth, the more painful and lasting the damage would be to our relationship, so with that in mind, I had devised a plan to tell Azula who I was, and what my goal in the Fire Kingdom was, so with my canon knowledge at hand, I knew when was the perfect time to do so, the day Azula, Mai, Ty Lee, and Zuko went to the beach, by that point Azula had already betrayed her father, meaning it was the perfect time to tell her about me, hoping for the best.
--You seem tense, and considering the amount of physical tension you have been releasing that should not be possible,-- Vaatu commented with clear disgust on his voice, --You do realize that even if she accepts you…. She will die, right?--
"It's my first relationship since I reincarnated you old prude," I inwardly shot back, I knew Azula was going to die one day, but in the meantime, I wanted to enjoy what we had, was that so bad?
--As I see it, you have more than two options, you can keep the old lie… you can tell her the truth…. Or you can create a new lie, one that suits your purposes,-- Vaatu said with a low chuckle.
A new lie? "The thing about lies is that they always come out… one way or another," I sighed.
--Psff, then you are a very bad liar,-- Vaatu grunted with irritation.
"I suppose I only have to wait and see," I chuckled.
--My question is?.... What will you do if she rejects you? Are you emotionally invested in her? Or is this a momentary attraction?-- Vaatu inquired, and to be honest, I had no idea how to answer that, I barely knew Azula, so I knew what I felt for her wasn't love, but not all relationships are formed with love, so far mine with Azula was like something instinctual, animal-like, our bodies were perfectly made for each other.
But I also couldn't deny, I enjoyed her company, but not to the point of saying I would die without her, that much was so far clear.
"I don't know, I'll probably be sad for a while if that happens, but…. Besides I don't know, as you said, she will die and I will go on, I knew about my ageless predicament before I decided to continue our relationship, so…. Maybe a part of me has always been ready to part with her when the time comes," I sighed, "That's the same reason I know our time to part is not supposed to be soon,"
--Very well, I would hate to deal with a moody roommate for all of eternity,-- Vaatu sighed, --Well, I suppose I will leave you to enjoy this fragile relationship….--
I chuckled, as I felt Azula and the girls approaching, with my seismic sense, I was able to notice they were dressed a little different…. So with curiosity taking the best of me, I turned around to see Azula, and the girls dressed as Kyoshi Warriors.
"I will take a wild guess and say… you fought the Kyoshi Warriors?" I asked, eyeing Azula, the Kyoshi uniform on her was quite the treat for me.
"So much for… Warriors," Azula chuckled, "We defeated them faster than I had anticipated, and now we have the perfect cover to infiltrate,"
Oh, so that's where we were on the canon, intriguing, "So what's my role?"
"You could dress up! like one of us!" Ty Lee offered, with an almost diabolical smile.
"No!" Both me and Vaatu shouted, though the only voice the girls heard was mine.
"Ty Lee, don't be ridiculous, what kind of girl has such broad shoulders…. They will discover who we are….," Azula scolded, though for some reason I could feel her emotions flaring with curiosity, she wanted to see me on that uniform, as I studied her emotions she turned her gaze at me, "You will have to infiltrate the city, and hide… I'll take care of the rest,"
Infiltrate Ba Sing Se? Easy, that city sucks when it comes to security…. The only reason they are nearly untouchable is that they have a big ass wall protecting them, "Sure, I'll be as stealthy as a cat,"
"Awesome," Mai commented, giving me the thumbs up, huh… her being nice and not sarcastic…. Wait a minute, was that sarcasm…?
"I don't know if that was a compliment or a very good insult, so I will take as both, thank you… and fuck you," I chuckled.
"Smart move," Mai smiled.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without waiting any longer, I followed the girls from behind using the shadows in the forest like my cover, while my team advanced towards Ba Sing Se, and I couldn't help but smile, soon everything would fall into place, I was but a few steps to tell Azula the truth, after all, if my canon knowledge was accurate, I was currently at the end of Book 2, meaning… Zuko would soon go back to the fire nation, and Azula would soon lie to Ozai about what happened to Aang.
My plan was not only to wait for Azula to lie to Ozai but for Zuko to redeem himself in the moronic path of justice, why? Well, it was quite simple, Azula wasn't meant to rule the fire nation, God knows I like her more than I like any other human in this world, except for maybe Sakura and Yue, but regardless of my liking to her, she wasn't meant to rule… and as for me? HECK, NO!! I will not fuck my life by taking a forever role on the fire nation, I wanted to enjoy life after the war, and enjoying life has is about things like traveling… having fun, drinking... and etc, things that I wanted to do with Azula, and with us running a country… that would never come to pass. So, I would use Zuko as my sacrificial pawn, he wanted that shit anyways…. So he can have it.
