As Yoko left, Shiro huffed, "The nerve of some people," and went back to looking over Mei Kyoshu's shoulder. She spoke without barely moving her lips this time, "What if they do double cross us?"
Shiro wasn't really worried but more angry than anything. How dare that boy come before her and tell her such lies? She could tell that he was lieing about something he was saying. People did things with their body unconciously when they lied whether something obvious like blinking or something hidden such as their pulse rising.
Mei Kyoshu stared up at his sister without blinking for a moment before whispering under his viel which concieled the movements of his lips for the most part, "Patience. The Dai Li knows better than to mindlessly kill a Fire Nation noble. Much less, one that is a Commodore directly under the Fire Lord. Her fleet would be here in days disguised as peasants."
"So she does have a fleet? That's very interesting. Seeing as how she obviously doesn't know about it yet," Shiro mused, still barely moving her lips.
"So when do we do our job?" Shiro asked, ignoring her brother's comment on patience.
Mei Kyoshu looked out among the crowds in front of them and got up. He answered softly, "When the Dai Li allows us. Now come; we've stayed in this inn for much too long."

The seven Dai Li arrived right in front of the dock of Ba Sing Se with Tsuzuki still in the chair. They stood her up by grabbing her under arms and moved the chair away. They then bended all the stone off of her body and pointed at the ship that was about ready to leave.

Tsuzuki frowned angrily, rooted to the spot. She was not going to go to the Fire Nation willingly; the Dai Li would have to force her onto the ship. "I'm not going back to the Fire Nation," she grumbled angrily, flames beginning to crackle from her fingertips.

The dai li captain stepped forward while the others got into formation. "We don't care where you go as long as you leave the Earth Kingdom. Go to the air temples, go to whale tail island, go to the frozen tundras of the south pole. We don't care just as long as you leave." The captain replied. "This ship is making multiple stops outside the Earth kingdom. Get off at any one of them. It doesn't matter to us." He quickly added.

Tsuzuki huffed and made her way towards the gang plank before calling out, "You'll be sorry!"
She was surprised at herself; she had never made threats before. This one wasn't empty either. From what she had seen of the future, if she lived, she would become an empty hearted war lord. But, unfortunately for everyone, two others arrived on the scene.
Shiro and her brother walked cooly up to the captain of the Dai Li, not stopping to even look at any of the others. She had her face hidden behind her golden, Kyoshi fan and spoke softly with an icy smile, "I thought we had a deal. We were supposed to dispatch that Fire Nation p***k."

The captain looked at the person speaking to him and replied calmly with a monotone voice. "I don't recall every meeting you miss."

Tsuzuki looked at the two people with interest. The Dai Li didn't seem to be too concerned so she blew them off as some sort of crazy people.
This really irked Shiro. Of coarse he had never met her; his superior did. She took out a letter and cleared her voice,
"Kyoshi Assassins,
We have recently had a problem with a Fire Nation native and need to dispatch her at once. Half of your money is enclosed. The other half will be paid to you after you finish your job. Also enclosed is the wanted poster of your mark along with information on her.
Signed,
The Dai Li."
She held up the letter to the captain's face but didn't let go. The mark of the Dai Li shone at the bottom. "This is your symbol, is it not?"

The captain glanced at the letter. His eyes shifting from top to bottom and only took a second to look at the seal at the bottom of the letter. "I am sorry but that is not our seal nor related to our seal in any way." The captain replied. He had no definite idea of what this person was doing but he had never sent for them.

Tsuzuki hopped onto the ship and down below, frustrated with everything that had happened. It was like she was being banned from everything these days. It wasn't even her fault. If the Dai Li looked into it, they would know that. But it didn't matter; she would show them. She would show them all.

Mei Kyoshu could tell that his sister was about to lose it and heads would start to roll. He placed his hand on her shoulder and lowered the scarf over his mouth with the other hand. "I'm sorry, Sir," he appologized to the Dai Li agent, "My sister and I must have been mistaken."
He gripped her firmly by the shoulder and walked her aways down the dock before reprimanding her, "Think, Shiro. You're going to get us killed. If the Dai Li didn't know anything about this, then someone very rich must have sent us to kill her for other reasons."
Shiro glowered back at her brother, pushing his arm off of her shoulder with one swoop of her arm, "What about all of that money? I mean. . ." she paused, grinning evily, "I have a plan," and leading her brother onto one of the ships.

Ba Sing Se was huge, it took Yoko forever to find the assasins who he had talked to in the hotel. Though when he found them they were boarding a ship and heading out to sea. "Damn they must be following Tsu!" Yoko rushed forth and passed the Dai Li captain ignoring him due to his full attention on the assasins. Yoko stoped at the end of the dock, and Yoko pulled a wistle from around his neck and blew into it. Within minutes Coco could be seen flying down to where Yoko was. Leaping onto her as she flew low Yoko followed the ship. If only he had came out sooner Yoko would have saw Tsuzuki boarding another ship.

Ba Sing Se was much different from what Haru'd expected. It was marvelous; it would undoubtedly be a great place to find a teacher. The impenetrable city was teeming with life and grandeur. There must have been at least a handful of people able to instruct him how to become a greater fighter. He was greatly interested in the idea of blocking one's flow of chi. It would be invaluable for proving his point, and effective in combat with one of bending ability.
Haru's thoughts were suddenly disrupted as his train came to a halt, shaking him of his thoughtful daze. He'd reached his stop. Exiting the train, he took in the greatness of the city once more before setting off to find a mentor.
After a few minute's walk, Haru took up a street corner and hung a painted sign made of canvas. It was emblazoned with mud-colored letters:
SEARCHING FOR A PHYSICAL ARTS TEACHER
