This two chapter short is basically centralized around post-war Azula. I thought her fall was one of the most dramatic scenes in the entire series, so I wanted to continue her usually isn't my style of writing, but hopefully it will satisfy.
She sat alone in a cell. Alone, like she always had been and like she always will be. She had no one. No one loved her. Everyone feared her. Her father thought of her more as a weapon, a military tool, than a daughter. Her mother saw her as a blood-thirsty monster. Her brother was a traitor and never trusted her. Her "friends" betrayed her because they could not be controlled.
Why did it end like this? Why did she have to fall? She knew she had gone insane. She couldn't handle her life any longer. Everyone loathed her, wanted her to fall from power. What was she to have done differently? She had seen her fall ahead of time, but could do nothing to stop it. Her tortured subconscious flashed images of her mother in her mirror.
Her mother. Even destroying the mirror could not ease the pain. She had loved her son, comforted him when times were hard, but left her daughter alone. Alone to deal with her own problems. Alone as a child! She had to fight even as a child to find love, and it never came! What she wanted the most, more than power or glory, and it never came! She couldn't admit that she needed it, though. She couldn't admit she had wished for her mother's love every night of her life! How she longed for the security Zuko had.
She had to detach herself from it all. She must push her thoughts away if she were to recover. She must regain sanity and the good faith of her brother. For when she is free, he will pay. They all will pay…
Well, what did you think? Should Azula get a second chance to "redeem" herself from her tragic life. Does she really wish to kill her brother and mother?
