Prologue
Two nations neighboring each other, their Royal families have been at war for many years now. No one really knows how they became enemies, it has been so long, and no one really cared. The Fire Nation and the Water Tribes were nations close to each other, only a bridge separates them along with their large market. The poor watertribe and fire nation folk have been caught in the middle of this dreadful feud and demanded peace. Little did they know their wishes will be fulfilled by two star- crossed lovers who will end the hundred year feud.
Market Place.
"Come on Meeko; let's go get some sea prunes before we have to go back to the palace." The watertribe servant boy, Nukka said to his friend Meeko. Meeko shrugged "Okay, I wanted something to eat just in case we have a bunch of chores back at the palace and who knows maybe we'll see some fire nation 'friends'." Nukka looked at Meeko with wide eyes "Do you think we'll run into some fire nation servants?" The young boy hasn't been with in the Palace for very long and was always kept under a watchful eye by Suki. "I don't know, but if they do, they better watch out! I've been working on my bending with Pakku, it's really paying off." Nukka smiled at his friend knowing that no fire nation brat would think about fighting him. They continued to walk down the marketplace, and that's where Nukka saw them, Fire Nation servants. He nudged Meeko "Hey, hey Meeko! Are those them?" he asked.
Meeko looked over to the other side of the market place, near fire flake stand he saw Lee and Chan. Meeko smirked, he has dealt with this guys before and isn't scared to do it again, but he knows of Avatar Roku's new law, if any of the two nations disrupt the peace, the penalty is banishment. He is just going to have to get them to fight first. "Come on Nukka, let's get some fire flakes for Sokka, you know he loves them." Meeko said giving Nukka a sly look which he returned.
They walked towards the stand and Meeko gathered water and shaped them in the form of fire balls and began to juggle them. Nukka snickered "Meeko what are you doing?" he said rather loudly gaining Lee and Chan's attention. Meeko smiled "I'm just practicing my bending, nothing wrong with that." Chan and Lee gave each other quizzical looks. "You know since I've already mastered my bending, might as well imagine it's a much lesser element, like fire." He said throwing the ball of water higher, smirking as he did. Lee glared at Meeko"Is that supposed to be an insult?" Meeko put a hand over his heart and gave a hurt look "What? Why Lee I would never insult your pathetic element! I thought we were friends and you accuse me of something so horrible." He smiled at Nukka, who was snickering behind his hand.
"Why don't you just run along now Watertribe, last thing we need is a fight with you guys, it would be a waste of our talent." Chan said crossing his arms. Meeko glared "Like I would take orders from you Fire Nation. Besides you guys are probably too scared to fight us anyways. I mean what would I expect from a bunch of Fire Nation Pansies." He looked at Chan challenging. The fire in his eyes said he was ready to fight, and that's when the chaos erupted. Fire and Water were flying everywhere; more Watertribe and Fire Nation followers joined the fight. Nukka, who hasn't mastered water bending yet brought his sword out and began to fight with glee, the sound of women and children didn't seem to faze him.
"Fire Lord Ozai! Fire Lord Ozai! Come there is a fight!" a young servant said bursting into the throne room. Ozai rose from his throne with a frown on his face. He looked around at his council who was looking at him expectantly, he growled and rose a hand to the air "Let us go!" he cried, a group of his soldiers threw their hands in the air and cheered. Ursa frowned "Ozai, do not do this. You know the penalty." She threw her arms around him, hoping to keep him from leaving. He took her arms off his shoulders "I must defend my kingdom; I cannot let those watertribe people thinking that I am a weak king. Weakness leads to failure." He said then pecked her lips and ran with his soldiers to the market place. Ursa sighed and ran to catch up with her husband.
When they arrived they saw Chief Hakota with Lady Kya. Both Kings glared at each other while their wives gave each other apologetic looks. Before Ozai or Hakota could join the fight a gust of wind caught everyone's attention. "ENOUGH!" an angry voice said. They all knew it was the Avatar and they grew quiet not wishing to anger the Avatar even more. "This has been going on long enough, look what you have caused in both of your kingdoms, hatred and chaos." He looked at both of the Royal Families and their guards. "If anyone shall disrupt the peace, the new penalty is death." The crowd gasped, they had not expected the Avatar to take such drastic actions. They all bowed their head in response. "Fire Lord, I wish to speak with you and your Lady, come. Chief Hakota I will speak with you and Lady Kya later. Go." The people obeyed and scattered.
The elder Kanna shook her head from the Palace, she had witnessed the whole fight 'Oh Spirits, will there be any peace?' she thought sadly.
Hope You Guys enjoyed this first chapter! Review :)
