Chapter 111 - Sex Trumps Disputes (2/2)
Disastrous, even.
Fine, I'll make my way towards the Fire Capital.'

After concluding their chat and also the limit at which Azula should contact him for not spamming his consciousness with her hot, steaming thoughts that would only give him a boner every single second, Nik placed his thoughts to partner-up with Nina aside.
Previously, he simply wanted to partner up with her and finally leave this world, but Azula's pleas were something he did not wish to overlook.
Who knows, he might really be in for a surprise?

Sokka opened the door as Nina was extremely clear that she loved her sleep. Seeing her body, Sokka did regain his vigour and the sleep did regenerate his lost fluids, but still, he respected her decisions and didn't want to ruin his morning or her's by waking her up.
As he stepped out, the refreshing air of dawn, even in the desert-like region, was extremely pleasing. A small smile touched his lips but the moment he saw Nik, all his happiness was dumped away.
He wasn't even angry about the siege of Ba Sing Se anymore, making him realise that he needed to stop with his own naive thoughts once and for all.
But...
With narrowed eyes, he walked up to Nik, who had his eyes closed as he leaned back while taking one of the seats in the hall.
”Good Morning... slept well?”
The coldness in Sokka's voice was easily conceivable. Opening his eyes, Nik smiled at Sokka before nodding.
”Believe me, after the number increases, sleep is only a luxury.”
The subject referred to in his statement didn't take a genius to understand as Sokka immediately turned livid.
”You—”
But before he could speak, Nik raised his hands in defeat and smiled.
”Why don't you take a seat? Let's talk things out.”
”Hmph!”
Sokka snorted, but still took the seat in front of Nik.
”I take that you have thought things through? Regarding last night?”
Nik asked while his question immediately put Sokka in a spot. Admitting his own mistakes was something Sokka didn't like to commit, but at this moment, he had little choice. With a slump of his shoulder, he looked at Nik with a sad expression and nodded.
”Alright, then. Let me discuss my future plans with you.”
He smiled before tapping the table in between them to get Sokka's attention.
”I am planning to travel to the Fire Capital.”
His words immediately garnered a frown from Sokka, but he still waited before putting his questions.
”Before I continue, I must ask, do you have any plans to actually follow me all along if Katara agrees to come with me?”
”Of course!”
Sokka immediately snapped as Nik nodded.
”I see... it is unfortunate.” While Nik's words remained a mystery to Sokka, he still didn't like him following his sister termed as— unfortunate.
”Either way, it looks like you have calmed down. Do you know why?”
Nik continued with a smile as Sokka nodded.
”I just needed some time to think things through.”
”Incorrect.” Nik grinned and pointed at himself. ”You let go of that issue because I created an even bigger issue. Like... sleeping with Katara.”
His words were barely a whisper yet Sokka's eyes flared in anger birthed from unconditional emotional protection only for Nik to grin once again.
”But what I am going to tell you will force you to move on from this situation, too.
Don't you want to know why I am making my way to the Fire Capital?”
After gaining Sokka's attention, Nik smiled. And he remained true to his words. The moment Nik spoke his true objective, Sokka paled visibly as he finally figured out that someone capable of even thinking such a feat was definitely crazy enough to claim about sleeping with a woman in front of the said woman's brother.
”I'm gonna assassinate the Fire Lord.”
