Disclaimer: I own nothing...
A/N: Okay, I have a something to say today on this update.
I am INCREDIBLY EXTREMELY TERRIBLY OMGEDLY SUPER DUPER SORRY for not updating in over...3 months. God, I'm so ashamed. I hope you all can forgive me!! Anyway, I hope you all can enjoy this update!!
Getting up, Jin asked, "Romeo, why is your love so shallow?"
Zuko, who had caught a sudden interest on the floor, opened his mouth to say something. But no words came out.
"How can it change just like that?" Jin asked once more.
"...I'm sorry." Zuko gulped and avoided her eye contact. Zuko coolly left the room with Jin's eyes lingering on him as he closed the door behind him.
Slap! Slap! Slap! Katara, who was lying on her bed, kept pounding on her red pillow while deep in though with each slap harder each time. Sighing, Katara looked out her window and got up. Peeking from behind a corner, Katara saw Zuko lying carelessly on the couch. Laying her eyes on him again, Katara slowly walked away.
Patiently sitting in the room, PAthik was meditating as Aang silently walked into the room.
"I'm going to go visit Jin. Would you like to come?" Pathik asked with his eyes still closed.
"I feel bad for her." Pathik sighed.
"Well, then, more the reason to come see her." Pathik grinned. "Hold on to one idea for too long and it can be used against us. It's time to use this one."
"You know, it's scary how something so important to one can be so unimportant to another." Aang sighed again.
"What do you mean?" Pathik asked, sounding suspicious.
"If we had met earlier, this wouldn't be happening to her." Aang pondered and said. "Everyone's unhappy because it took so long for us to meet."
Annoyed by Aang's complaint, Guru Pathik replied, "What do you mean by that?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to go and visit anyone." Aang finished.
Holding a basket of beautiful fire lilies, Katara thoughtfully walked down the quiet hallway of the hospital. Looking through many windows, Katara finally found the room she was looking for and kept looking through the window.
Jin, who was currently walking down the same hallway, spotted Katara looking at her room. Sighing as if annoyed, Jin kept on walking. By the time Jin made it to her room, Katara saw her.
"Oh, Jin!" Katara greeted and in return, got a bad look from Jin.
"A-Are you okay? Here, take this..." Katara said and held out the basket.
"Go away, I don't wanna see you." Jin replied coldly and walked into her room, leaving Katara standing there, shocked. As soon as Katara had realized what happened, she quickly turned around, but ended up having a door slammed in her face.
She sighed.
"Your majesty, Miss Jin has attempted suicide and is currently at the hospital." Lady Pak informed Queen Ursa.
"What?!" her majesty gasped as her eyes widened.
"Jin did?!" Mr. Iroh gasped too.
"You know her?" her majesty asked.
"Uh, yes. She's Prince Zuko's ex." Mr. Iroh explained. "Not many people know what she went through though. She refused to give up and became an entertainer despite coming from a poor family."
"I see."
"I can't believe someone like her would attempt suicide." Mr. Iroh sighed. "She really must have been hurt by Zuko."
"Damn, it's one thing after another. I don't even know what to do anymore." her majesty sighed.
"Your majesty, this is pretty serious." Lady Pak said.
"We can't let this go out of hand. Lady Pak, is she still in the hospital?"
"Yes, your majesty." Lady Pak replied.
"Do you know what the biggest gossip surrounding the Royal Family is?" Azula asked Jin at the hospital. "It's about whether Zuko is worthy of being on the throne."
"My heart aches whenever I think of him. Who'll stay with him is he gets dethroned?"
"He has Katara." Jin sighed.
"It was an arranged marriage with a condition of Katara's family being saved from bankruptcy. Do you honestly think that their marriage will last? Even after Zuko gets dethroned?"
"..." Jin's eyes widened.
"The way I see it, they aren't getting along well. They're just faking everything because of the rumors."
"You and I both know that Zuko is responsible. He might even still be married to Katara even after he gets dethroned. Do you think a tomboy like Katara can comfort him if that really happens?"
"..." Jin pondered.
"He's bound to come back to you."
"Yeah, but, if it happens, it will be hard on Zuko. And hard for me too."
Azula just grinned evilly. "Do you know what the surest way to heaven is?"
"No."
"It's knowing the way to hell. This is the hell you need to pass to get to your heaven. After getting through this, you can get anything you want." Azula said decievingly.
To be continued...
K, I know this is a terrible chapter and I really think this chapter sucks, and I most definitely know that the "enemy" person is confusing since I'm keep(accidentally) switching them off from Azula to Pathik to Azula to whoever...and I'm even confused myself. And I think that's because the main enemy people is (in the drama) is supposed to be Yul's mom. But since Aang is supposed to play Yul in this story and he doesn't really have a mom, I started with Guru Pathik. But then I accidentally added in Azula. So now I'm so freaking confused!!
And I solemnly swear that the next chapter will probably be up in a few days.
And just to let you know, one of the reasons I'm starting to slow down on my updates is because "Princess Hours" is quite boring. It was sorta funny at first, but now it's just so incredibly boring!! And honestly, I just want to finish this story as quickly as possible so I can get on with all my other stories.
