Azula parried the ice picks with pointed slivers of flame from her own fingers, she was the best at this bar none. Not even her brother, or her father now.
Her poor father.
She focused on Katara's wall of ice, sending a wall of flame at it, blue fire burning through slowly, too slowly. So focused was she that she didn't notice the air attack until it had hit her, stinging and painful Azula laughed all the same, he sounded so angry that she had lied to him.
"I lie. You'll learn that Avatar, It was my deception that brought down Ba Sing Se, well...my deception and this..."
She twirled to face the Avatar, knowing her lightning attack could get around the little peasents wall. She focused herself and struck...
Only to find it was not nearly enough. Sure there was a few forks, but nowhere near her best, nowhere near the attack that had floored her brother in their Agni Kai or helped her at Ba Sing Se.
She hadn't been able to call it properly since she'd lost. Since her father had been stripped of her powers. Since traitors had brought the Fire Kingdom to ruin.
She hissed and returned to the blue flames, another succsession of fireballs followed by a blazing wall of flame. But Azula it seemed was off her game as Zuko had noted in their last duel. Slipping. But even in her madness Princess Azula was a dangerous woman.
