Is it double the trouble?

----Dialogue heavy chapter, I hope its good...-----

Sokka whispered to me, "*Bro your friends are all girls.*"

I shrugged, "Azula I brought new guests where's Joo Dee?"

Azula looked up from a newspaper. "Is he one of them?"

"This is Sokka, we became friends. You wanna interrogate these guys though?"

Azula looked at the tied up Dai Lee agents. "Mai! Get these people from Orin!"

Sokka seemed deep in thought, he was likely putting Azula's identity together. Azula broke him from his thoughts though. "So Sokka, How did Orin convince you to become his friend?"

Sokka shrugged, "He reminded me of an Uncle I have I guess. That and he fed me jerky."

Azula frowned then smiled, "Ha, You are like an Uncle!"

I gave Azula a look "Do you want me to say it?"

Azula pouted, "No." Mai gave a giggle as she entered the living room. She then sighed when she saw the tied up Dai Lee agents.

"Really Orin?"

I shrugged, Sokka raised his hand, "So uh, do I just like hang out?"

Ty lee laughed, "You don't need to raise your hand silly."

Sokka stared at Azula and Mai, "They make me feel like I need to, they are scary women."

Azula smiled, "Thanks, but no don't hang out. In fact why don't you take your new friend Orin and fuck off?"

I raised and eyebrow and Azula just shook her head. I got the message and sighed. I wanted to take a nap, but I guess it was now a new adventure. Sokka tried to resist, but I pulled him out of the house.

"Wait why are we leaving?"

I looked at him, then back at the house. "Sometimes it is best to simply don't ask questions." It hadn't really come up in conversation, but it wasn't strange to take a guess. Which might explain some things...

"Are you okay?"

"Huh? Oh yeah I'm fine, why do you ask?"

Sokka shrugged, "You just stared off into space for a minute."

I facepalmed that was a serious problem of a habit. We continued walking along.

"So are you from the north pole?"

"North pole?" Oh he meant because I was waterbending. "Nah I was born in the fire nation, just had a cheating whore of a mom."

Sokka stared, opened his mouth and just nodded. "That's rough, buddy."

I nodded along and, "Sokka! There you are!"

We both looked to the right of us. I nearly choked as I saw Katara. It wasn't weird or anything I just wasn't expecting to see her. I took a second to check Katara out as she walked over to us. Katara looked me up and down before put her hand out.

I accreted her awkward handshake. As she introduced herself, "I'm Katara, Sokka's Sister. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too. I'm Orin. Why are you looking fro your brother?"

"Yeah what's up Katara?"

Katara jumped, "Right! I was talking around and I heard about some people working for Toph's family. Do you think they are here to take her back?"

Sokka scratched his chin as I just looked away a bit. Interrupting I wrapped my arms around the siblings. "We should talk else were, am I right Sokka?"

Sokka snapped his fingers, "Right! Katara, man do I have something to tell you."

Katara grabbed my arm removing it from her side, "Is this about how you two met?"

Katara pulled her brother to the side to whisper to him. I could understand it was likely a whole thing about stranger danger. I debated a second, then decided to take a second to estimate Katara's assets. I was certainly right in my belief of her having curves. Katara whipped her head back around to me and I met her eyes quickly.

"So?"

"Alright, I trust Sokka's judgement. Except you do anything weird, *and I'll break your fingers.*"

She whispered the last part, but her threats seemed more cute then scary. I mean Azula's threats seemed cute to me so. Katara huffing some air out brought me to realize she grabbed our hands.

"Now come on, let's go talk somewhere else."

-----Zuko pov-----

"To think I would return to my greatest military failure, AS A TOURIST!"

"I can't believe how true that is."

Iroh nodded as he laughed. "I know right? Now how about we go check out some shops?"

"Uncle, How am I suppose to train?"

Iroh looked at me and sighed, "Zuko you have perfect bending, what you need now is the theory."

"Theory?"

"The theory, Yes. Ironically coined by a friend of mine. However accurate in its name. Some master bender's have signature moves. Developing one's signature also enhances your basic abilities. As it gives you a better understanding of bending in correlation to you. Before... Before I decided to quit my siege I was know for my dragon-like fighting style. After that though I developed a better understanding of bending as a whole. Creating a balance of various styles."

Nodding I understood, "You mean I should focus on learning other ways to bend?"

Uncle nodded as he stared at a tea kettle in a store front. I sighed, knowing he wouldn't elaborate anymore. It was a self discovery type of lesson.
