Fire Burns and Ice Freeze

City of Walls and Secrets

"You must be getting tired of using those swords. Why don't you go ahead and firebend at me?" Jet asked

Zuko just stand in the doorway of the tea shop.

"Please, son, you're confused! You don't what you're doing!" Iroh said

Jet and Zuko are fighting. Zuko swings at Jet, but Jet stops Zuko's broadsword with the sends of his hook swords, spins around and deflects it to the side. Zuko spins with swords and tries to counterattack, but Jet hooks the ends of his swords together and begins to swings them at Zuko in large circular motions. Zuko retreats back a few steps to defend himself.

"Bet you wish he'd help you out with a little fire blast right now." Jet said

As Jet swings at Zuko's feet, Zuko stabs one of his broadswords through the hilt, pinning it to the ground. Jet looks at it with annoyance before focusing back on Zuko.

"You're the one who needs help." Zuko said

Both of them lose a sword, and continue fighting with only one. He turns in a circle and tries to swipe at Zuko, but Zuko quickly advances and swings his sword at Jet. Jet pulls his attack just in time to bend backward and avoid Zuko's blade, cutting the straw sticking out of Jet's mouth. Jet regains balance, and jumps backward onto the edge of a well.

"You see that? The Fire Nation is trying to silence me. It'll never happen." Jet said

"Does Ba Sing Se not have a police force?" I asked

"We do but I don't know where they are. They should be here by now." Pao said

Jet begins to attack again, hooking his word to the top of the well and sending a flying kick toward Zuko. Zuko growls as he swings his sword at Jet, who dodges the attack. He moves on to Zuko's side, and they end up back-to-back. Zuko and Jet attempt to strike the opponent behind thim, but neither can get past the other's defense.

"The Dai Li." Pao said

Two Dai Li agents walk towards the fight.

"Drop your weapons." Dai Li agent one said

Zuko and jet step away and face each other. Zuko lowers his sword, as Jet points at Zuko and Iroh.

"Arrest them, they're firebenders." Jet said

"This poor boy is confused, we're just simple refugees." Iroh said

"This young man wrecked my tea shop, and assaulted my employees." Pao said

"It's true sir, we saw the whole thing. This crazy kid attacked the finest tea maker in the city." the customer said

"Oh, ho,ho. That's very sweet." Iroh said

The two Dai Li agents walks up to Jet, who looks at them angrily.

"Come with us, son." Dai Li agent two said

Jet swings his hook sword at the agent, who catches the sword with his rock gloves. The guard disarms Jet, and both guards pull the boys, arms behind his back, binding his wrists together using their rock gloves stones. The two guards drag Jet away towards a wagon designed for holding captured criminals.

"You don't understand! They're Fire Nation! You have to believe me." Jet said

The crowd begins to disperse. I see Longshot and Smellerbee. I walk over to them.

"The Avatar, and my brother and sister are here in the city. Find them and they can help you get Jet back." I said

They nodded their heads. I then head back over to Zuko and Iroh. Zuko handed the swords back to their owner.

"I think we should call it a night." Pao said

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Iroh said

We headed back to the apartment, and then inside. I headed into Zuko's bedroom.

"Can we talk?" Zuko asked

"No." I said

I went to leave the room, but he stopped me.

"I'm not in the mood for this Zuko. It's been a long day." I said

"Fine we won't talk tonight, but we will talk." Zuko said

"Okay." I said

I go to leave the room, but he stops me again.

"Where are you going?" Zuko asked

"To sleep." I said

"Where?" Zuko asked

"The kitchen." I said

"You can sleep in here. I'll sleep on the floor." Zuko said

"You don't have to." I said
