Chapter 13 – Fracture
Enlightened Nuwa puts her brain on overdrive considering what she has to do to salvage her relationship with Azula, while berating herself for being too horny to consider consequences.
Nuwa observes Azula’s face slowly morphing from rage to unadulterated betrayal as the first thing Azula catches sight of is Nuwa’s virginity blood.
Nuwa notices that Azula’s body language is still in attack mode so instead of continuing to reach for her clothes like she had been, she manifests the arm shield.

Azula was angry at everything ever since her Mother went missing. She shrugged it off at first since she was never particularly close to her Mother, but she had a feeling that her family would never be the same again. She secretly yearned for her Mother’s love.
She forced one of the generals to recount what occurred in the throne room and immediately lashed out at Zuko even though she didn’t mean it. Deciding to let out some steam, she poured her anger and chi out on dummies in the gym.
After an hour or so, she took a shower and while walking back to her room, she got that tingling feeling in her belly that occurs whenever she’s near Nuwa. She never let Nuwa know about this, because she likes the connection and was scared that Nuwa might have some way to turn it off.
She followed the feeling and her heart sank as it led her to Zuko’s room. Azula knew how much Nuwa teased and liked Zuko. Nuwa even confided in her years ago that if she could have anyone take her virginity, it would be him. She had always been in denial about that incident and bullied Zuko out of jealousy ever since. She didn’t want to believe what she thought was happening so she just pressed her forehead to the door and waited, with the hope that they were just talking.
She did hear Nuwa’s beautiful, seductive voice. Unfortunately, what she heard was Nuwa moaning in sheer ecstasy from having her womb filled up. The only two people that loved her in her life have left her.
A piece of Azula’s psyche fractured at that moment into a monster. Her normal haughty princess psyche who secretly wishes for love couldn’t handle the pain so let the monster take over. She blasted the door off its hinges and her eyes teared up as she saw Nuwa’s precious virginity blood. Zuko, the perpetrator of her suffering, was slumped on the bed with all muscles relaxed, but his pupils dilated with fear, too late to react to what came next.

Azula utters a guttural roar while mustering chi and throwing it at Zuko as fast as she can before Nuwa can get her shield into position.
Nuwa blocks all of it from landing on either of them, but the bed is too flammable. Enlightenment mode Nuwa pulled Zuko up with the intention that he get off the bed as she pulls herself off Zuko’s dick and dashes towards Azula.
Unexpectedly, Zuko forgets that he can firebend all the flames away as he gets his foot caught in one of the bed sheets. He slowly falls off the bed and his face lands on a piece of burning carpet, which caught on fire due to Nuwa deflecting one of the fireballs that Azula is throwing at her.
Nuwa finally reaches a tear-stricken, delirious Azula and chi-blocks her bending before hearing Zuko scream from behind her. Zuko’s upper left face is covered with melted carpet and badly burnt.
Nuwa feels despair at fate for re-orchestrating the same ole shit as she screams, “NOO! AZULA, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!”
Nuwa can’t chi-block Zuko’s pain receptors for his face so she takes a bucket of water and throws it on his face. Nuwa starts crying and pleads, “Zuko, listen to me, extinguish all the fire in this room, HURRY! You’re the only one here who can.”
Zuko, still in the throes of agony, somehow composes himself enough to complete the task. Nuwa wets a shirt and tries scrubbing off the burnt carpet from his face. There’s not that much burnt carpet since it wasn’t on fire for long so it comes off cleanly with a few layers of skin.
Zuko is still screaming and Azula is smiling and crying. Nuwa feels like she’s about to puke at the gory scene she’s looking at.
Nuwa pounces on Azula and tackles her to the floor as she bursts into tears and holds her collar, “WHY AZULA? Why did you have to do this to us!? He’s your big brother! You’re not a monster! Why did you succumb!? I’ve always loved you the most..waaaaah..”
Azula stares at the ceiling in tears as her princess psyche comes back and hugs the wailing, naked Nuwa tenderly. Azula’s voice was raspy, “I’m not a monster? You love me?”
Nuwa cries for another 20 seconds, then she slaps Azula hard and tearfully says, “I’ll always love you, but I’ll also hate you, if this is who you choose to be.” With that line, Nuwa quickly dresses back up and escapes out the balcony still sniffling and bursting into tears periodically.
It’s a miracle that no one is nearby within the 3 minutes that pass upon Azula’s entry into Zuko’s room and Nuwa’s exit. The commotion has garnered attention and the guards enter the room. Zuko has just a towel on his lower half and is still screaming in pain clutching the left side of his face. Azula is sprawled on the floor with tears still streaming down her face.
The guards sigh and take it as bullying gone too far and delayed grief over the loss of their mother. They quickly take their places to do some first aid on the Prince, and get him over to the infirmary.
Nuwa jumps across rooftops sniffling and crying all the way back to her house instead of the dorms. She goes to her parent’s room and curls up in the bed, filled with the comforting scent of her Mother. She lays there and cries, waiting for her Mother to return for the day. A maid notices Nuwa crying in the Master bedroom and sends an urgent notice to Lady Pea.
Nuwa is assaulted by stray thoughts and self-doubts.
‘I went to the palace in the first place to stabilize Azula, why’d I have to get sidetracked and lose my virginity at that very moment? If I went to find Azula first, maybe she wouldn’t have misunderstood. If I had dragged Zuko with me so that he stayed behind my shield when I went to chi-block her, it would have been fine! I could have resolved everything. No, Azula would have attacked him the moment I left. She blames Zuko for everything now.’
‘My poor Zuzu is such a pure soul, he has never done anything wrong to deserve all this. It’s all my fault. My selfishness got him hurt. I still feel his cum inside me. I hope he doesn’t hate me.’
‘This all came too fast. The plan was to go on a trip with Azula, if only I had been more insistent on leaving earlier instead of with a planned escort and schedule.’
Nuwa’s thoughts spiraled through what ifs and occasionally even questioning if she should have fallen in love at all. Both times that she fell in love, she was disappointed. In Nuwa’s mind, love was far less important than her ambitions. Her experience with love was sorely lacking in comparison to how good sex felt.
Ironically, Nuwa doesn’t notice how much she loves and needs her family at this tragic moment.
