“I heard whispers that Long Feng and General Kali captured some Fire Nation bigshot and a lot of generals. They got a lot of soldiers as well” He said.
My ears perked up at those words and I just knew that Toji had been thinking in the same direction as I had. He knew what this news could mean for me and my future. All our futures if I was being honest.
“You think the Princess-“
“Well if she surrendered then that would be the only way to explain them taking so many soldiers prisoner. If the Fire Nation Princess had been killed in battle or anything of the sort then they would have fought to the last man. Honour would have nothing less from them”
“I agree. But then its a jump from assuming she was taken alive to assuming she remains so”
“Well, there’s only one way to find out. But I also bet that she is. If Ba Sing Se wants to survive after perpetrating the greatest act of mass slaughter that the Fire Nation Army has ever been dealt, then they will need a bargaining chip.
“So that’s what you think the Princess is being used as. A bargaining chip?” I asked.
“It makes a lot more sense than them killing her” He said, and I nodded at his words. He did have a point to his words. Long Feng as a smart man. He would see Azula’s worth.
“So your plan is for us to rescue her and then the soldiers and somehow use this to take the city?” I asked, and he nodded instantly. Toph as well, bless her heart, nodded from her position pressed against my stomach. Of course.
“I feel a plan coming” I said, making smiles spread.
