HotXbun: This is an AU based on The Lion King 2. I got the idea when I was thinking about the scene when Sokka banished Aang.
There will still be Avatar Extras.
At the end of every chapter I will give...a challenge! Keep in mind you don't have to do them.
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar the Last Airbender. Nickelodeon does.
Chapter 1 Aang is Found [Avatar Extra: The original title for this chapter was 'Found and Used' and then 'Found and Freed'. But the plot of the chapter changed so the title had to change too.]
Zuko's POV [Avatar Extra: This is the first time the story's in Zuko's POV.]
I was on my ship when...it suddenly came to a stop.
My father walked onto the main deck where I was. [Avatar Extra: In this version Zuko was not banished.]
"What is going on", he asked.
"It looks like the bottom of the ship got stuck on something, Sir", one of the workers replied.
"Well then, go find out what it is", my father ordered.
"But Sir, the water is icy cold", the worker said.
"I don't care", my father said. "Go down there and see what it is!" [Avatar Extra: Zuko's father is not a nice person.]
"Yes Sir", the worker said.
Ten Minutes Later
Two workers were in the water.
They dived underwater, but resurfaced a second later. They looked like they saw something scary.
"Well", my father asked waiting for an answer.
The workers kept on muttering while pointing to the water.
"Spit it out", my father demanded.
"Th...there is a g...glowing ball made out of ice down there and inside it is a boy and a large beast!"
"Do not lie to me", my father yelled.
"It's true", one of the workers said. "Come see it for yourself."
"I'm not getting into that water", my father yelled. "I'll have the object brought onto the ship."
Half An Hour Later
As my father said...the object was brought onto the ship. And the workers were right.
There was a large glowing iceberg ball and inside was a boy and a large beast.
"Hmmm", my father said. "It looks like you two were not lying about what the object was."
The two workers who found the object sighed in relief.
My father used a fire whip to slice the iceberg open. But the minute the fire hit it...a blue beam of light shot into the air!
The shot pushed everybody back, but it died down a little later.
When it did, the boy went to the edge of the iceberg. And that's when I noticed something.
The boy was bald and that arrow shaped tattoos all over his body. Those tattoos were...glowing!
I looked at the boy in shock.
The glowing stopped...and the boy collapsed off the iceberg!
I quickly as I could...I ran and caught the boy just as he was about to hit the deck.
"Nice catch Zuko", my uncle congratulated.
The crew clapped.
I looked at my father and sister.
My father looked shocked and my sister looked jealous.
You don't know how happy that made me!
My father always sees me as a failure and my sister is always showing me up. So this was refreshing
I snapped out of it when I remembered the boy.
I looked down at him.
He looked young and seemed innocent.
The boy slowly opened his eyes and looked at me.
"Hello", he said.
"Hello", I said helping the boy sit up.
Suddenly, two workers grabbed him and pulled him onto his feet.
My father walked up to him.
"My name is Fire Lord Ozai", my father said. "And you are?"
What the boy said next shocked me.
"I am Aang of The Southern Air Temple."
Everybody gasped and the boy (who I now know is named Aang) looked around in confusion.
"What's wrong", He asked.
"There is no way that is true", my father said. "The Fire Nation killed all of the Air Nomads one hundred years ago."
"Now there's no way THAT is true", Aang said.
"Are you implying I'm a liar", my father asked getting angry.
You are a liar.
"Of course not your majesty", Aang replied." But I was at The Southern Air Temple just a few days ago. And there were plenty of airbenders."
That's when I realized something. [Avatar Extra: What did you realize?]
"Aang..."
"Quiet", my father yelled interrupting me.
He turned around to face me.
"How dare you interrupt me", my father said angrily.
"Oh Ozai", my uncle said.
He was the only one who wasn't afraid of my father.
Father turned around to look at Uncle.
"It is Fire LordOzai", my father corrected putting emphasis on 'Fire Lord'.
I could tell in his voice that he was trying to stay calm.
"Very well", my uncle said. "Fire Lord Ozai, you interrupted Prince Zuko.
"I am the fire lord", my father yelled losing his calm. "I can say whatever I want!"
"No you cannot", my uncle said calmly. "Everybody must treat everybody equally."
"Oh please", my sister said. "If that were true this war wouldn't have even started."
"My daughter is right", my father said before turning his attention back to Aang.
"Take him to a cell!"
HotXbun: cliffhanger! What's going to happen?
Challenge: What is going to happen to Anng? Tell me what you think.
My Answer: All I can say is... You'll have to wait and see.
