Well, first attempt at a story so please be gentle and don't flame too much. Another warning I many not be able to give you people great detail, okay? Well on with it.

Two young men kneeled before the fire lord in his great hall, the ever present fire that blazed below his thrown raging away.

" I called you two before me this day because I need you too accompany my daughter on a mission that this very nation's existence depends on." The two boys nodded. "I am in need of your special talents." He gave the last to words emphasis.

"We understands your highness." Said the younger of the two soldiers. "My friend Sojin and I will aid the princess in any way she sees fit." He said slowly.

"Aye Lee and me cant take care of your problems." Sojin butted in rather abruptly.

The fire lord shot Sojin a rather sharp glance, causing him to wave his hands as a sign of apology . "If you complete this task you shall be paid handsomely." The fire lord pointed to door which a fire nation guard opened to reveal a large supply of gold.

The two boys jaws hit the floor as they said in unison "when do we start?"

"Immediately." said a female voice. The two boys turned too see the fire nations princess Azula. " We are setting off immediately to the earth kingdom we have lead on where my brother and uncle are located." she walked past the boys and bowed before her father. " Are you sure these two are up to the challenge" The boys looked at each other with very insulted looks on their faces.

" The boys may appear inexperienced," the insulted looks on their faces became worse. "These two are the finest warriors the fire nation has to offer. The younger of the two has won seven fire nation battle tournaments, defeating men that appeared too have far more experience than him. The older of the two is a fire bending master, close to your level." the brothers smiled.

"Very well, what are your names?" She asked

The younger brother bowed to Azula "My name is Lee."

"Mines Sojin." said the eldest of the two.

Azula nodded "Okay, gather your equipment and meet me at the docks in an hour."

The two nodded and exited the great hall. As they walked down the corridor to the outside of the estate and sighed heavily.

"Well this will be interesting." Lee said happily

"Aye lad we get to see the world and make money." Sojin replied.

Three hours later

Lee and Sojin approached the large royal boat that sat in the harbour. Each with a variety of weapons and equipment. Lee carrying two broadswords and a variety of other blades as well and was dressed in white robe with red pants. Sojin carrying a one massive bag and wearing a modified fire nation soldiers outfit.

"Jeez check out the princess stuff." Sojin said as he watched servants carrying on several bags.

" She is a women so she will naturally have a lot of bags." Lee said.

The two boarded the ship and got ready for the long voyage to the earth kingdom.

A/N Yeah i kno it aint too good but its a start, Tell me what you think but be gentle dont flame
