The night went by very quickly in Maiku's mind because of his being near is fiancee`.
"Don't worry baby, its ok, I just wanted to make sure you get enough rest. You need to go out and make the wedding preparations if you need any, I'll stay back here and wait. We can get married tonight if you wish, or whenever you choose." Maiku said.

"Why won't you go with me? I can't do this without you. And yes, I'd love to get married tonight. The sooner the better," Neha said, while giving him a hug.

"Its too risky for me to be out in public in broad daylight, we need to be safe from all suspicion so this can go off without a hitch." Maiku replied, huggin her back, "Yes the sooner the better indeed.
"Here," he said holding out his arm, "In this sack is 50 gold pieces, 30 silver, and a few coppers just in case you decide to go a little overboard."
Pushing her gently to the door, "Now scoot, you have much work to be done, dress, my outfit and whatever else you see fit."

Neha started saying, "This is way too much," but Maiku pushed her to the door. Before she left, she turned around, gave him a pout, and ran up to him to kiss him. After the kiss, she said "I'll be back soon, and don't worry I wont spend too much. I love you." With that, she left.
It was getting warm outside, the sun was rising steadily, and Neha stretched as she walked down the street. The first thing she was going to do was to appoint a priest. Back to the moon temple.

After returning the kiss to Neha, he responded, "I love you too, and spend it all, I have more where that came from."
Then he laid down, all was taken car of she was rested and he knew that she was well capable of defending herself if the need arose. Now it was his turn to rest, his eyes began to close, until sleep came to him.

I hope he's getting some sleep now, Neha thought. She skipped down the street, giddy and happy, knowing she was going to be Maiku's wife today. Staring down at her ring, Neha smiled to herself. It glittered in the rising sunlight, but suddenly she bumped into someone.
"Watch where you're-"
"Sifu Noa?!"
Her mentor from the Moon Temple stared her down, with a serious scowl on her face. "Young Neha, where have you been?! Your mother has been coming back and forth to the moon temple. Not only to look for you, but to pray to the spirits that the fire nation has not taken you, or any spies for that matter. You have to be careful. What do you think you're doing?!"
Neha stood completely still; mostly in shock and fear. She clasped her hands to her chest as she received the verbal beat down. Sifu Noa stopped yelling for a moment and violently grabbed her hand. "What is this!? This isn't a water tribe betrothal necklace! The only other nation in the world that does this is...The FIRE NATION? NEHA WHAT IN THE WORLD-"
Neha quickly tore her hand away, bowed to Sifu Noa, and ran off before it could get worse.

Maiku continued to sleep peacefully until he was awoken by a knock at the door.
"Room Service." He heard from behind the door.
"What is there for breakfast today?" Maiku asked.
"We have leechi nuts, platatus duck eggs over easy, with some toast."
"Awesome," Maiku said opening the door and taking the food. He handed the man 2 silver pieces and the man bowed humbly and nearly went away skipping.
Now its time for me to eat. He began to think to himself. He ate his meal left the tray on the desk and returned to his slumber.

Neha ran 5 steps before she felt her body turn cold. She was encased in a box of snow, and she couldn't move.
"Oh no you don't Neha," said the old woman, "We are going to have a talk."
Darn. I could never win against a master. "Yes, Sifu."
Noa walked by her, unfroze her, grabbed her arm and started walking. She took Neha to a secluded place by the shore, and violently made her sit on the snow. "Now look young lady, you are going to take off that ring, and forget anything that happened in the past few days. Do you have any idea how selfish you are being? Spirits bless your mother, she is so worried about you. Do you have anything to say?"
Lowering her head in shame, Neha said "Forgive me for my behavior, Sifu Noa. I know it is very hard for you to believe, I know, but Maiku has sworn his loyalties to me. He has repeatedly risked his life just to be with me, and I will do the same. If only you could take the time to meet him, and see how sweet he is. He does not want to bring harm to our nation, he respects our culture, and realizes this war is not for the good of anyone."
"Impossible, he is Fire Nation Neha, he is tricking you and deceiving you!"
"Please, Noa, just meet him, that's all I ask. I love him and we plan to get married here. And I know you're a priestess, you can marry us. Please if you meet him, please," Neha began to cry, and Sifu Noa's eyes softened. She kneeled down by the young girl, and said "I will meet him Neha, but if I sense anything wrong at all, you're going back home.
"Thank you."

In his sleep Maiku dreamed of Neha, he began to smile while he slept. He saw her infinite beauty travelling across the sky, and he felt calm, at peace. Everything was perfect.

Neha pointed to the inn nearby, and said, "There is the inn that we were staying. It's not a far walk." Sifu Noa simply nodded, and they walked.
Before they knew it, Neha entered, and the man recognized her. "Welcome back!" She bowed to him, and continued to her room.
Her hand was shaking. Her whole being was on the fritz. She could feel the tension of her sifu behind her, and slowly, Neha opened the door to their room. Oh spirits...please...help me...
The young girl stopped in her tracks. She saw the love of her life sleeping ever so peacefully on the bed. Her heart began thumping fast, and she felt herself at complete peace again. "This is him," she whispered with affection. Neha walked to the bed, and slowly caressed his cheek. "Maiku my darling, we have a guest.

Maiku woke up, his eyes slowly opening to see his soulmate, then he saw her guest. He jumped up to attention and bowed.
"What honor it is to have you in our humble abode." Maiku began, "Please have a seat, and if you need anything let me know and I will make sure that it is taken care of."

Neha smiled to herself at Maiku's kindness and politeness. Always ready for anything, she thought. "Maiku, you remember Sifu Noa, my teacher from the Moon Temple. And Sifu Noa, this is Maiku." Neha walked to his side, grabbed his hand and said, "he's my fianceé."
Noa kept silent, and said, "No thank you young man, I do not need a chair, nor anything else for that matter. Why do you want her as your fianceé Maiku? What was your mission here? To seduce a water tribe woman and learn our secrets?"

"Well the original plan was for me to try and find plans, but I gave that up when I met your student, her natural beauty and charm did the seducing." Maiku said, smiling at Neha.
"If you don't mind me asking, and by no means whatsoever do I mean any disrespect, why are you here?" Maiku asked.

Neha smiled back and blushed at his sweet statement. She looked away so not to show her elder the blush. Noa however, was a keen observer, and noticed it right away.
"Why am I here? Young man, everyone wants to know why you are here, why you have chosen to deceive good people and try to burn our nation to the ground. I am here to evaluate you, and if I think you are a good man, I will wed the two of you. You need to prove to me you are a man of good character. Not just a fire nation spy."

"I didn't choose to decieve anybody," Maiku said, "I was doing what I was told to do, you have your superiors, people you have to answer to for better or for worse. So as of right now my life is on the line but I'm willing to take that risk, because living in fear of a man is a foolish lifestyle indeed. If you desire to learn anything else, you may ask, I have nothing to hide."
