"Wow! This food is good! But, I can't help but think that something is missing," Ty Lee hummed in satisfaction as she ate the food the restaurant had given her.
'Wow, this food is really much worse than the food we eat in the Fire Nation. Must be because they can't afford anything better than this... and now we have also conquered the city,' Ty Lee thought with a hint of guilt.
Norrak, on the other hand, was a bit disappointed as he looked down at the food on the table in front of him. It was a soup with meat chunks and carrots. That's all there was in the soup...
"Actually, I think this food is pretty underwhelming. Hmm, if I could, I could cook some mean food for us," Norrak said with dissatisfaction as Norrak ate the soup. Katar looked down at her bowl and sighed as she ate.
"Hey Norrak, can't we just go and have you cook what was that thing called again? Cook us the thing called pizza?" Katara asked with a hint of eagerness breaking through.
While on the Island of Kyoshi, Norrak had decided to actually make something delicious since he now had the ingredients to do so. He cooked pizza that day.
"Pizza! What is that? Some new food? I want to try it as well!" Ty Lee sprang forward, her face had a smile on it as she spoke, and Katara had to hide her annoyance.
'Why is she looking at Norrak like that anyway? Doesn't she see that I am right here? Or does she not care about that?' Katara thought with a tiny glare that Ty Lee noticed.
'He~ Sorry, but I kind of like him. So I can't really back down simply because you're together, right?' Ty Lee thought, and she winked at Katara before looking back at Norrak.
"You are right, Katara? Let's ditch this place and buy some ingredients. I will make us a pizza," Norraks said while getting up and leaving a bronze coin on the table.
The waiter immediately took the bronze coin and the plates full of food, and then took them away. Ty Lee and Katara followed him out of the restaurant, eager to leave.
The three walked towards the market, where Norrak bought the ingredients needed to make pizza. He purchased two eggs, flour, cheese and some meat along with some tomato sauce.
To his surprise, buying cheese caused the seller to look at him wth surprise. It seems like cheese is something only the moderately wealthy, very wealthy, and nobles enjoy.
After purchasing everything they needed, Norrak took Katara and Ty Lee to a hotel room. Which he rented for a whole week, costing him a pretty penny of 10 bronze coins.

The door to the hotel room unlocked as Norrak pulled the key from the door, and Ty Lee, carrying the ingredients, with Katara following, all entered the room. Norrak made sure to close the door.
"Alright, ladies. Make sure to watch how I make it. Maybe you could make it yourself in the future," Norrak said as he took the ingredients. The hotel room was expensive, so there was a tiny kitchen to cook in.
Norrak took the flour, and then he added the eggs to it. He then began to knead it with his hands, and it took a minute due to his strength and speed to create the dough.
"Now, we let the dough rest for a bit. In the meantime, I will prepare the other ingredients," Norrak took the cheese and meats, and he began to cut them into the perfect shapes.
Like pepperoni, and perfect slices of cheese to top a pizza. It's not easy since there was no greater, but it was the best Norrak could do without using his bending.
As Norrak cooked, the two girls stood back, watching him. Ty Lee was smiling, humming a song to herself, while Katara was annoyed, her arms crossed.
"So, what made you decide to invite us into the castle? And don't try to lie to me," Katara asked with a suspicious tone, creating an invisible vacuum around the two.
"Hmm? Whatever do you mean? I wanted to invite the cutie only, but you happened to be there as well~," Ty Lee said with a chuckle, causing Katara to turn red with anger at how she admitted to liking Norrak.
"Well, I suggest you give up trying. Because Norrak already has me. And if you did not notice, I am his wife~," Katara smirked, holding her right hand out in front of her, showcasing the silver ring with Norrak's name.
Ty Lee froze, and she clicked her tongue in annoyance. She looked at Katara, and Katara's face was full of smugness and bragging as she placed her hand down.
"Well, it does not mean anything, okay. Marriage doesn't stop someone from liking someone else, does it~, and from the looks of it. I would say Norrak likes me pretty well~," Ty Lee said, crossing her arms and looking cute as she looked at Katara.
"Oh yeah? Well, it's not like you could ever compare to me anyway, I am not scared. I have a better body, I am sexier, and I am stronger," Katara bragged, her chin pointing towards the sky.
"We will see in the future, won't we. But know that from now on, I will get Norrak for myself, and there is nothing you could do to stop me~," Ty Lee said with a chuckle, her tongue sticking out teasingly.
"Go for it, but don't expect any results from him; he is mine, after all," Katara said without holding the annoyance in her voice back. Ty Lee just giggled, sticking her tongue out.
"Urgh!" Katara groaned in anger as the vacuum around them vanished.
[10 minutes later.]
"This is the best food I have ever eaten in my whole entire life! You are a master chef, cutie~," Ty Lee said as she cupped her cheek, chewing on the slice of pizza in her hand.
The cheese stretched out, and the warm tomato sauce was tangy and sweet at the same time. Katara was not doing much better, as she was also eating.
Norrak chuckled as he picked up a slice for himself.
"Eat as much as you like," Norrak said.
[Meanwhile...]
"Ugh! Why would she do that! Her order was to invite him to the castle, not to go eat with him!" Azula screamed in anger as she sat on the throne with Mai standing in front of her.
"Who knows what was going through her head, but I bet a hundred Ban coins that she likes him," Mai said with an exhausted sigh from following Ty Lee around he whole day.
"Grrr! Ty Lee, you little... Tch! Fine, whatever. It's not like I care," Azula said with a glare, smoke drifting from her hands as she gripped the armrest hard enough to leave cracks.
'Tch! That guy must enjoy toying with girls' hearts. I knew something was off with the way he looked at me,' Azula thought with a smirk.
'Looks like my plan to manipulate him into falling for Ty Lee, only for her to ruthlessly refuse his love, and then for that other girl to find out and leave him too, and then I would crush him even further, making him obey me!'
"Besides, that useless Zhao better do as I ordered him, or I will go and burn him to a crisp until nothing remains!" Azula said with a grin as she thought of her backup plan.
Azula chuckled at the thought.

Azula seems to really dislike Norrak, or perhaps she doesn't want other girls around him~
These are questions we may never get the answers to~
