Having heard the noise, Hazuki had assumed there was an attack, and rushed back to towards the housing quarters, her sword drawn. She'd previously been out training, and due to a healthy metabolism, Hazuki tended to sweat quite a bit. She also happened to be quite fond of the color white, and wore quite a bit of it. Today she wore one of her more common styles, a simple white button up shirt and dark navy blue jeans. It was usually pretty obvious anyways that Hazuki had a decent rack, but today they were extra perky, having just been bounced around in training. The ample C sisters were in their prime. Of course, this was by no fault of hers, just having great mixed genes. But it remained a fact, she was evolution at it's best. Plus, the girls were saluting~

"Is everyone alright?" She called as she ran, then stopping abruptly when she spotted him up ahead. "..." She steeled herself as best she could, considering the situation. "Zuko." She called, her voice extra husky and womanly, and breathless. "What's going on? Are you alright?"

Hazuki.

Having not gotten the change to use Belldandy to rid himself of the awful taste of Keiji Saga currently still on his tongue, he immediately went to her--hands on her hips, pulling her to him and holding her in place. It didn't help matters that he'd kissed her before or that she was currently panting and damp and looking irresistible. With the combination of all that and the lust potion, Zuko couldn't help himself.

He didn't say anything as he leaned down and crashed his lips onto hers, one arm snaking up her back to pull her more tightly against him.

[sharpsoftblue]

She gasped and gaped as he touched her, closing that mouth quickly once his lips had covered hers so suddenly. Her eyes were wide open from shock, her body also stilled momentarily from her utter surprise. But though she wasn't moving, it didn't feel that way to her. Every part of her felt like it were either spasming or squirming, momentarily clouding her mind from the sensory overload. He was so warm, and they were so close, she sorely tempted to just stay there. In fact she debated it for several minutes, all the while held tight against him, every part of her incredibly soft, in every way. Her skin was smooth and pampered, her hair silky, the strands enveloping Zuko's hands

The sound she made only made him tighten his grip on her--not too tight, though, as to not hurt her. She wasn't resisting him, which caused the prince to deepen the kiss he'd placed to her lips, his tongue snaking out to lick them. He didn't force her to open her mouth for him, however, but merely pulled away from her lips and placed a kiss to the corner of her mouth. Then to her cheek, the spot where her jaw met her ear, and then her neck.

[sharpsoftblue]

Hazuki abruptly started when she felt his tongue prodding at her lips, and then she gasped when he began to kiss jaw and neck--But it was not a pleasant gasp. She'd come to her senses. His intentions were clear, and she couldn't go any further until he coughed up some explanations.

"Zuko--Wait, stop!" She demanded, putting her slender but strong hands on his chest and pushing him away gently, but firmly.

[banishment]

Zuko groaned in protest like a child not getting his way, but allowed himself to be pushed away. He wasn't the forceful type--at least, not with Hazuki--and merely made a face to show his displeasure at the absence of a female body pressed against his own. Even though his lust-induced body hadn't cared about the fact that he'd slept with a guy, the logical, sane part of his mind that was currently locked up somewhere in his head, was screaming. Zuko was not gay and neither was he bi. He liked girls. He really liked girls and the fact that he'd done that...was revolting. He hated himself for it and wanted to set Keiji Saga on fire and watch him burn for taking advantage of the fact that he was undeniably horny and had been rendered defenseless by the cuff after trying to attack

[sharpsoftblue]

Hazuki had been about to step away from him once he'd let her go, already immensely impressed that he had let her go. She hadn't wanted to use force on him, but she was prepared to. But then, he let her go, and said those words. And in that immediately after saying them, she couldn't leave him all over again, now bound by her own heart. She'd heard similar words before, from classmates of hers. Hopefully, it was something else he meant, somehow, but she already was full of dread and sorrow for him. "His? Whose? What do you mean, Zuko?" She advanced a step upon him, feeling so worried, so overtaken by what she knew was foolishness. She didn't care.

[banishment]

Zuko was now feeling angry. Not at her, but with himself and that despicable Keiji Saga. A firebender's bending abilities were fueled by emotions in the proper scenario (a way of bending that Zuko had stopped using prior to the explosion of the lust potion) and rage was the primary source for that. The passion he felt was also sparking his temper and in a sudden fit of frustration, Zuko turned away from Hazuki and stomped a foot on the ground, bending flames from it, throwing balled fists down to his side and sending the flames spiraling up into a pillar that towered over him and surged for the briefest of moments in response to his tantrum. He didn't keep it up, for he didn't want to be shocked by the cuff again, and spun back around.

"Keiji Saga," he breathed in a voice that was full of anger and barely audible.

[sharpsoftblue]

She went suddenly cold as she immediately recognized the name. That bastard, the one who'd had the nerve to harass and violate her when she couldn't fight back against him. She understood immediately what must have happened, and what the smoke must have been doing. Despite knowing that, she couldn't help herself. Her face reddened all over, and she squirmed noticeably. "I... Know who that is." She grumbled, looking just as uncomfortable as him, if much more withdrawn.

"..." She took another step forward, egged on by something deep inside her chest, something as once as powerful as rock, unyielding as steel, and as warm as the gentle glow of a fire. "...Zuko..." She held out her hand for him suddenly, emboldened by a spirit inside of her, one she knew had always been with her, even when she was alone. And she was alone so often... "Follow me." She instructed, looking as noble as a prince herself, a warrior, but also unsure, so very unmistakably a girl.

[banishment]

Zuko's eyes went wide for a moment, the logical brain cells still floating about wanting to ask her if she was sure about letting him do this, but the part of him that was being controlled by the potion silenced any words before they could make it from his brain to his throat. He put his hand into hers and nodded.

"Okay," he managed to say in a low tone.

[sharpsoftblue]

She led him into nearest building, and into it's basement, finding the nearest restroom from there. Once in there (she chose to go into the women's restroom, she assumed it would be cleaner) she led him to the sinks, where at last she let go of his hand, leaning against a wall with her arms crossed. "There. Wash the taste out." She instructed simply, her voice soft but frosty.

[banishment]

Zuko raised his only eyebrow at her, gaging to see if she was serious or not. Seeing no sign of this being a joke, he sighed and reached out with one hand to turn the faucet on. He watched the water running and lifted his hand--not to stick it under the water to bring some up to his mouth just yet, but to hover above the sink, palm flat. He pointed his fingers down and drew his elbow back in away he'd seen Katara do that was poorly imitated.

"Still just a firebender," he concluded and cupped both hands, sticking them under the water. He rinsed his mouth out thoroughly and dried his hands by using his bending to heat his skin so that the remaining moisture evaporated off.

[sharpsoftblue]

She watched him quietly as he obeyed her, using that strange power of his in the process. Finally, when he was done, she approached him again. "Zuko... Are you alright?" She asked, quietly, knowing the answer already. She knew that asking him that wouldn't make him feel any better. On impulse, she reached out, placing her hand on his shoulder, hoping the weight would distract his mind. "I... I think you should know... The physical aspect doesn't matter. That bastard..." She seethed, "It doesn't matter what he did. If you didn't agree to it then you are not impure." She state surely, looking directly into his eyes to convey the truth, hoping he would believe her.

[banishment]

The prince's response was to laugh, somewhat bitterly. He wasn't impure? Well, maybe not from her point of view and not from having had sex with Keiji Saga, but Zuko was indeed impure. Why? Because he was the son of Fire Lord Ozai, because he was Fire Nation royalty, because he was descended from an Avatar who could have prevented the war back home if he'd had the guts to kill his friend, because his mother killed his grandfather on his behalf, because he'd hunted an Avatar, because he'd set Kyoshi Island on fire, because he tied Katara to a tree, because he'd sent an assassin after those who were now his friends, because he'd burnt Toph's feet...

Zuko's laughing soon subsided and was shockingly replaced with something resembling a sob--as close as Zuko would allow himself to let out, as he did not cry in front of others. Not since the Agni Kai with his father that he'd refused to fight in, where he'd bawled pathetically in front of half the court. He dropped to his knees and put his hands to his head, gritting his teeth and

[sharpsoftblue]

She almost winced at his laughter, until she heard the sound crack. She could barely handle it. And then he dropped to his knees, and her resolve faltered, and she dropped to her own knees beside him. She'd dealt with the fallout from this kind of thing before, with girls from her school. In her opinion it was one of the worst, most shaming and damaging things you could do to a person, and if she had wanted to kill Saga Keiji before, now she wanted to torture him

[banishment]

Zuko swallowed hard, pushing back the brunt of his emotions. He wasn't as good as hiding them or holding up that mask of neutrality as his sister and girlfriend were, but he could manage. A tear escaped him however, and he looked up, touching the wetness on his unscarred cheek with the tips of his fingers. He couldn't cry from his other eye--the tear ducts had been burned out ages ago. It was a wonder he could still see out of that eye, even if what little he could see was blurry, but he'd gotten used to it. He wiped it quickly away with the back of his hand and turned to wrap his arms around Hazuki.

The prince was still under the influence of the potion and couldn't help himself from pressing into her suggestively.

"I'm sorry," he said instantly in quiet voice. "I can't...control it."
