Y/n's POV
I bended bubbles of water around our heads that were filled with air.
Zuko dove into the water. I dove in after him.We followed the turtle seals underwater.
Soon, we found where they resurfaced in a cave, my bending wearing off once we were in the fresh air.
Zuko got out the water no problem.
I struggled getting out; I couldn't get a grip on anything."Here." Zuko said, shivering, offering me his hand.
I took it, letting him pull me out the water.
He stumbled backwards as I came out, causing us to fall over. I fell on top of him, then quickly moved away, embarrassed.We were both freezing. We sat there a moment, huddled together by a fire in Zuko's hands.
The fire went out as Zuko stood up.
"Come on, let's keep moving." He said, pulling his face cover back on.
"Okay." I whispered, standing up and pulling on my hood.
He found a way for us to climb out the cave.
We ended up in the city. I looked around for anyone patrolling.
I couldn't see anyone, but I heard voices."Zuko, do you hear that?" I whispered.
He nodded his head.
"That sounds like the Avatar's little girlfriend." He said, walking towards the voice. "Y/n, I want you to stay hidden."
I frowned.
"Why?" I asked. "I want to help you."
"And you'll help me by staying out my way." He glared at me.
I nodded my head, looking away.
"Yes, Prince Zuko." I whispered.
We found part of a wall with a crawl space as a door to a hidden area. I stayed outside of it while Zuko crawled in.
"He's my friend. I'm perfectly capable of protecting him." I heard a girl say.
"Well, aren't you a big girl now." Zuko mocked her.
I smiled from where I hid."No..." She said, horrified.
"Hand him over and I won't have to hurt you." Zuko said to her.
I could hear the sounds of water being splashed, along with a loud thud. I peeked inside.
She's a water bender! I thought, amazed.I had never seen another waterbender. Then again, we were currently in the North Pole. Of course there would be other benders.
I saw Zuko on the ground, standing up.
I started to worry.
"I see you've learned a new trick. But I didn't come this far to lose to you." He said, blasting fire at her.
I closed my eyes, looking away.
"You little peasant. You've found a master, haven't you?" His voice rang through the air.
He called her a peasant. I thought, holding back my laughter.
Suddenly, all the noises died down.
I looked in.
She had frozen him to the wall with ice."No!" I shouted as I ran in.
The girl looked at me, shocked. I bended water from around us at her like a whip.
She countered, doing the same."Who are you?!" She shouted. "Why are you attacking me?!"
The sun began to rise.
Me and the girl seemed evenly matched. I panicked, unable to think of what to do.
Zuko's eyes are closed. That means... I blew a gust of air at her, slamming her into the wall.
Her eyes widened. I bended water as she began to run at me, creating ice around her.
Zuko unfroze himself and bended fire at her, knocking her into a tree.
She fell unconscious."You rise with the moon. I rise with the sun." He mumbled, grabbing the boy.
He had glowing blue arrows.That must be the Avatar. But he's just a little boy.
Zuko began to walk away with the boy on his back.
"U-um, Zuko-" I started.
"No!" He shouted, interrupting me.
I flinched.
"Why are you yelling at me?!" I shouted back, teary eyed.
"Because I told you to stay hidden. Again, you didn't listen!" He barked at me.
A snowstorm started up as we treked up the mountainside.
"I was just trying to help!" I argued.
"What if you had gotten hurt?!" He said angrily.
I paused, blinking. He sighed, his breath appearing in the air around him.
"I wouldn't have been able to forgive myself." He said quietly.The snow began to deepen.
"And what if you had gotten hurt?" I said, just loud enough for him to hear. "Ever since I woke up, you and your uncle have been my everything!" My voice got louder.
He didnt respond. Instead, he kept walking.
I shivered from the cold.
Zuko took a step and the ground under him began quaking.
It wasn't ground.
It was ice.
"Run!" He shouted at me.
I took off running behind him.
The ice collapsed behind us, sending us both flying forward. I crashed into the ground, hitting my head on a chunk of ice."Ow..." I groaned, rolling over.
"Y/n, are you alright?!" Zuko shouted at me, worried.
"Yeah, I'm fine.." I mumbled, standing up and rubbing the spot where I hit my head.
"Look, there's a cave up ahead. Let's get out of the storm." He said to me, dragging the boy behind him.
I followed.
Once we were in the cave, he tied up the Avatar and left him in the middle of the cave.
I went further in and slid down the wall, hugging my knees.I'm so cold... I thought, shaking.
Zuko started a fire, then came closer to me, sitting down beside me."Here." He said, pulling me onto his lap.
I looked at him, shocked.
He held my hands in his. They became hot.
I shivered as I felt his entire body begin radiating heat. I leaned into his chest."Th-thank you." I whispered, smiling softly.
I looked up at him.His face was close to mine.
