Zuko groaned, waking up from a deep sleep as he heard the shouting from the other side of his door. He sat up groggily, trying to register what his Uncle was saying. Kyoshi... Island...
Zuko blinked a few times, remembering that Kyoshi Island was the home of Avatar Kyoshi... there was a chance they might have some Earthbenders...
He got out of bed, quickly walking over to the door and opening it, "Tell the crew to stop. We will disembark here. But tell them to be cautious; Kyoshi Island is neutral in the war officially, but they are still sided with the other nations."
((It would be nice to live next to the ocean. ^^ We don't even have water in our rivers here.))

Iroh nodded, "Okay, I'll do that then."
Before he completely left the door, he decided to ask his nephew something that had been bothering him. "... Prince Zuko... are you sure.. everything is alright? And are you sure this is what you want to do? I'm not sure... if this goal of yours is going to change the Fire Lord's mind... "
Sokka blinked, listening curiously now.
((We aren't that close, but yea. And ya can't swim in it cause it's two cold and the waves are harsh. But it's fun to stare at the water. Yup. >> wink )

A flicker of rage shown in Zuko's eyes, "What are you talking about?! Of course this 'goal' will work! Father said it himself, that all I need to do is capture one hundred benders... He wouldn't lie to me!" he said, somewhat frantically, as if he were clinging onto this hope like a lifeline.
"We're going to search Kyoshi Island for Earthbenders, and we're going to capture any we find, even if it means burning the entire island down to get to them!" he huffed, finally turning on his heel and heading back into his room, slamming the dented steel door behind him.
((Still sounds better than the never-ending ocean of dry earth here. XD;; ))

"If you understood your father, then maybe you--" Iroh tried to say, but was cut off by the Prince's loud protests. The old man shook his head and looked down sadly. "For your sake, I hope it does work..." He muttered to himself, before walking back down the hall.
Sokka lost his balance at this point and tumbled into the hallway. "Ah-uhm, sorry, just, erm, practicing standing on one foot!!" He stated hurriedly, jumping up on one foot and bouncing. "See!?" He grinned. "It's good for the muscles, yuuup. Gotta impress the ladies!"
Iroh laughed lightheartedly, but the sadness was still deep in his eyes. "Wish my nephew would focus on those sort of things -- those are what a teenage boy should be able to do. Instead, he is trying to grow up too fast..."
"Huh? He needs to jump on one foot?"
"...no, no that isn't what I meant. I mean, be social, make friends and be awkward around girls... Ah well. "
((I have to see it to believe it. I mean, isn't there an ocean if you keep driving south!? D: But yea, sorry... maybe you could swim in the sand....?! biggrin
EDIT: Owo Sorry. Getting offline now. Lots of stuff to do tonight and I need to rinse the chlorine outta my skin. XD; I was only gonna stay on until I was done eating my Hot Pocket anyway. Although, typing with one hand ain't easy. XD;
Good luck with Grad. ))

Zuko stomped across the floor of his living quarters, pacing back and forth angrily. What right did his Uncle have to question him like that?! How could he... even consider that this mission wouldn't bare fruit?! Of course it would! Zuko would definitely return home and reclaim his honor!
"Gagh...!!" he suddenly punched at the air, sending a large amount of flames hurling through the room. A tapestry caught on fire, but Zuko ignored it. He continued attacking the air, releasing blast after fiery blast from his body, as if all of his problems could be released with that fire.
Smoke filled the room as Zuko finally slumped to the floor in exhaustion, panting for breath as all of the furniture in the steel room burned to ash. He lowered his head to the floor, watching as water droplets splashed onto it. Water droplets...? Where did they come fro-Zuko brought a hand up to his scar, feeling the water running down from his eyes over the rough tissue, and then down his chin and onto the floor.
He continued to stare as the tears refused to cease pouring from his eyes. Then, finally, in one last desperate rush of frustration, Zuko pounded his fists as hard as he could against those water droplets, leaving two fresh dents in the floor.
(Ha! Yeah, we can get to an ocean if we go south long enough... if we want to go all the way to Mexico that is... ^^;; ))

Sokka followed Iroh with his eyes until he was completely above deck. Light blue flickered down the hallway back to Zuko's room, where it appeared that smoke was seeping from above the door. He blinked a few times and then walked to it to stare at it curiously for a moment.
Probably a bad idea... but...
Enh, do now, think later.
"Eh... whatcha doing Princey?" Sokka asked, cocking his head and tapping on the door. "You gonna come see this island with me -- or do I gotta go by my lonesome?"
((*stares at Zuko* Talk about an emo moment. O____o ))

Zuko heard the tapping on the door, but subconsciously chose to ignore it. He crumpled even further down to the floor, shoulders with choked sobs. He just wanted... to go back home... then all of this would end... everything would be better... He had no choice but to... go home...
He began inhaling smoke, letting out gasped coughs, but ignored it. He was used to smoke... used to burns... he didn't care right now.
((Heehee, I luff emo Zuko. <3))

"Erm... Zuko?" Sokka asked again, more softly this time. He... was in there right? The tribesman tapped again lightly and frowned at the door. " You.. gonna come out? Crew says they want the prince to be first off the ship. It is your ship, right?"
((XD; It's cute. During the masquerade there was an Avatar game show skit and at the endToph says, " well since you all suck, nobody will recieve the cash prize!"
Then Zuko goes, "WHAT!? Uncle - I thought you said playing this game would restore my honor!!"
It was hilarious. XD; ))

Zuko's gaze snapped to the door as he heard snippets of what Sokka was saying. He didn't want anyone around right now, let alone that damn Water Tribe peasant.
He glared at the steel door as if it were the one that had wronged him, then gritted his teeth as he prepared more fire around his fist.
"LEAVE!!" he shouted towards the door, hurling flames at it, enough to cause the door to begin conducting the heat.
((OMG that's so awesome! XD!! I want to meet those people.))

Sokka jumped about a foot upon realizing the steel was hot.
"GAH!" He yelped, cringing.
"FINE! Then be all alone! See what I care!" He shouted in retort, a little upset and very hurt. He jutted out his lower lip and stomped down the hallway.
((LOL. They were kewl. I met some of them after selling art.
I'd show you the video of the skit but the sound quality is terrible. D: ))

Satisfied that he was completely alone again, Zuko went back to angsting against the floor, the occasional cough escaping his lungs. The parts of the room that were burning would eventually be turned to ash, and the fire wouldn't be able to spread over the steel, but he knew he couldn't take much more smoke inhalation whether the flames were spreading or not.
He sighed, knowing he at least had to vent the room. Shakily standing up, Zuko looked around at his work, squinting at the charred decorations and ruined bed through the smoke. Quickly finding the door, he opened it, letting said smoke drift into the hall.
((That's the problem with most of the cosplay skit videos. D: ))

Sokka turned to look back upon inhaling a breath full of smoke. "What the....?"
He gazed with a confused expression down the hall. "Uh... Everything okay down there?" He yelled, squinting now because of the smokey air.
((Your character has MAJOR issues, dude. XD ))

Finally able to breathe at least somewhat properly again, Zuko glanced down the hall to make sure no one was there, but couldn't make anything out through the smoke. He shrugged it off, suddenly feeling much calmer and more open-minded after that little outburst, so he began trudging down the hall in Sokka's direction, stepping through the smoke as if it were nothing but normal air, seeming to ignore the fact that he couldn't see ahead of himself.
((Yaaay...! =D It's fun playing characters with issues. <3))

Sokka stood in the hallway gazing at the smoke. This was probably a bad idea because he started to become somewhat dazed as he blinked at it. He used the shirt sleeve to cover his mouth but he was still determined to figure out what was going on before he left... even though the room seemed to be spinning in circles at this point....
((Haha... yea, well my character is just an idiot.
YAY IDIOTS. ))

Zuko continued walking calmly, as if he wasn't currently breathing in a bunch of smoke. Instead he simply followed the smoke's path towards the stairs that would lead up on deck. However, before he reached said stairs, he ended up crashing right into Sokka, falling down to the floor with a grunt.
((But he's the smart kind of idiot! =D))
