She made sure she was dried off and every hair perfectly in place before stepping into the litter to be carried out onto the deck of the ship. Azula was angry. Still damp from her encounter with her Uncle, still sore from having to swim in armor, and still more than a little upset that her Uncle and brother had managed to get away.
But that wasn't her fault. It was the Captain's fault, she knew with a single mindedness. And such digressions could not go unpunished. Her word was law. And the Captain had to be punished; it wouldn't due to let him walk around without paying for his stupidity. It would give the others ideas.
The litter carried her out onto the deck and set her down smoothly. All of her men bowed low, as was required. Azula stayed silent for a long moment. And then, she spoke, “Captain.”
The Captain stepped forward and bowed, “Yes, Princess?” The tone of his voice spoke to his nerves.
“Remember when you spoke to me of the tides, Captain?”
He gulped, “Yes, Princess.”
“I am no longer mulling it over, Captain. The tides and I are of the same mind,” it was with a cold satisfaction that she watched the color drain from his face. Without a waver in her voice she gave her command, “Throw him overboard against the rocks, but first… cut out his tongue.”
Azula watched without expression as the sentence was carried out without question. The Captain's screams eventually nothing more than him gurgling on his own blood followed by the splash as he hit the water, the tides would do the rest.
“I trust no one else will have a slip of the tongue. Dismissed,” The litter bearers picked her up without word and carried her back to her chambers. Satisfaction rolled over Azula like the tides.
