Chapter 1

Hope and Betrayal.

It was a bright day on the kingdom of the kingdom of Toonerdia. On top of an old castle there was a small fight going on. Actually it was more of a training session. Two girls were fighting each other with wooden swords.

One girl was dressed in a pink dress with a white belt with a nuclear sign and white shoulder pads, knee high boots, elbow length gloves, a cloth like helmet and on her left arm a bracelet. She had her red hair in a pony tail, green eyes and a touch of lipstick on her lips. She is a Galactic Gaurdian called Atomic Betty also known as Betty Barret.

The person she was fighting was a young firey young lady, with black hair in a nice pony tail. She wore some maroon looking robes (her travel robes, not the flashy type she has around the palace) and a sinister look on her face. She is Princess Azula, daughter of Fire Lord Ozai and Fire Lady Ursa.

Betty smiled as Azula kept trying to get at her and seemed to back her into a corner but then she flipped around her and put a sword to her neck. "Sorry, that was good, but not good enough to live!" she said in a humored way.

Later on Azula started ganging up on Betty. "Mind if I sit down", she asked amused. "I don't have your energy."

She sits down on a nearby stone brick but keeps fighting Azula like it's nothing.

"Fight with your head", said Betty then grabbing Azula's shirt towards her added, "Not your heart!" Then she lightly smacked her face playfully.

Down below a man in Fire Nation armor rode on a Rapidash. It was Admeral Zhao, one of the Fire Lords trusted men.

Meanwhile back above the castle Azula resumed fighting Betty. Azula nearly got Betty. "Better Azula!" shouted betty.

But then Azula missed and Betty whipped around and had her sword stop an inch from Azula's armpit. "Your still dead!" laughed Betty.

They later fight on fields below the castle. As they fought Betty neared a table set up there with a pitcher of water and a cup on it. "Very good", said Betty nearing it. "Show control, compassion." She then just kept her sword held up as she pours herself a cup of water. Azula goes for a stab but Betty trips her and she falls flat into the ground. Holding her cup Betty wore an amused smile. "Sorry, but no one ever found victory in the dirt!"

Admeral Zhao approached them as they were finishing their training. Azula got up to meet him and smiled.

"Those peasants seem to always be revolting Admeral", said Azula.

"Right Princess, they have always been revolting, but they are rebelling", laughed Zhao, "And what's worse is that Zuko is aiding them."

"I always knew my brother was a bad seed", smirked Azula.

"The Fire Lord requests that her daughter sees his noble victory", said Zhao.

Betty gave that look that shows when she is not particularly happy but must do an says, "There is nothing noble than slaughtering or burning desperate men."

Zhao glared. "They are not desperate; they are all traitorous scum, especially Zuko. The fire lord commands that you bring her!" He turned his horse a bit then turns back, "You may come along too. . nurse maid."

As he turned to go Betty growled and snapped a twig in two.

A huge army lead by a man in bright red armor and a red crown on his helmet slowly made their way towards a village which had bordered itself with a a flaming wall. Smirking there horses made way over the wall.

The man in red armor was Fire Lord Ozai and he starte using his sword to kill people left and right and he bent his fire at them.

Betty and Azula were watching the battle from afar on their own Ponytas.

"I want to be down there", said Azula.

"No", said Betty leering, "You don't."

"Yes I do", said Azula, "Especially with you, just to get a glimpse of you in action, your skills would be the finest on the field. Better than any type of bending even."

"My laser sword, my bracelet nor my skills were made for your father's butchery, and apparently, your brother didn't think his skills were for that purpose either", said Betty.

Azula had enough of Betty's words and angrily said, "But he is my father Betty, and he is the Fire Lord!"

"That's true", said Betty, "But when you are Fire Lord, remember the difference today between battle and butchery, and remember the Code of the Galactic Gaurdians. And you will be a finer Fire Lord than your father."

"Yes", smirked Azula, "I promise. . I will be greater!"

Ozai had just slit his last throught then smirking firebended on a few houses, setting them on fire. He did it as if it was nothing to him but then to his eyes he saw the enraged eyes of a Mr. Parker, Zuko and a small intimidating messy dressed man with jeans and a black shirt marked 'Jerk' with white letters named Dan (from Dan Vs.).

"Sorry Ozai, it's over for you. I am so going to enjoy this" said Dan punching his fists.

At this several rebels came out as if from out of nowhere and surrounded him. Ozai gasps, he was surrounded and he was being ganged up on.

(Insert break)

"He's in trouble" shouted Azula. She urged her rapidash to take off.

"Azula wait" shouted Betty knowing the danger her protégé was getting into so she followed after her.

Azula made the jump but a wagon carried by the villagers blocked Betty from going after her. "AZULA! NO!"

The villagers had downed Ozai and finished beating on him.

"That's enough. The real battle is out there. Let's chaarrrrrge" he shouted. The villagers roared in agreement and headed out.

Azula arrived just as they left and she kneeled by her fathers side. "Father?" she asked.

With no response, Azula assumed he was dead. She reached and took the crown of his helmet gasping at it. Finally the throne was her. . hwoever it was shattered as Ozai tried to pull it from her.

She screamed. "It's MINE!" She pulled it free and Ozai died immediately. As she stood to get away a young boy up from one of the towers caughed on the smoke she fell from it and hit Azula breaking his fall but Azula lurched for ward and her chest got skewered by a sharp wooden pike from another tower. She gasped as she felt it.

As she pulled free and gasped for air, she turend to the person responsible who had removed the bucket on his head. It was a boy with sandy brown hair called Noah Parker. Azula fell back just a Betty ran in on her horse and scooped Azula up.

"AZULA!" She layed her on her horse. "I am here Azula. I am here my fire lord!"

As they took off Noah looked at the nearby dirty water on the ground. Some of Azula's blood was mixed within it.

Ursa was busy writing on a scroll in her room when Admeral Zhao entered gasping.

"He's dead your ladyship. I regret to inform that your husband, Ozai, was slain by those peasant scum", said Zhao.

Ursa merely let out a small nod and resume writing as if it was no big deal. She knew that her husband did himself in, and that his loss was not an awful one.

Her thoughts were interrupted hearing her daughter crying out in pain as she is laid on the bed. Atomic Betty was with them.

The surgeouns were ready to work on her but Ursa shouted, "OUT! Out out out!" She gestured to Iroh. "OUT!" Betty was about to leave when Ursa said, "You stay Betty."

As Ursa tended to Azula's wound Betty looked on.

"I tried to save her, it was all my fault", said Betty closing her eyes in shame.

"It's nobody's fault",s aid Ursa, "Her father's ego did this to her."

Azula continued to scream. Betty could tell her end was nigh.

"She is beyond all hope", she sighed. Ursa turned and looked to some ceramic figurines of Dragons.

"No not all hope." She said

A procession of Fire Nation soilders led by Zhao escorted the stretcher that Azula was on. On her stomach was her father's former crown and by her side was Ursa and Betty. In attempt to keep Azula from falling asleep, Betty was having her recite the Gaurdians code.

"A Galactic guardian is sworn to their duty", started Betty.

"Gaurdian. . sworn. .duty. .", breathed Azula.

"Their strength upholds the universe", recited Betty.

"Upholds. . universe", repeated Azula her breathing was getting harder.

"They shield all creatures of every planet" recited Betty.

Azula was breathing so hard she couldn't say it. Betty knew this so she moved to the next part.

"Their pure hearts set an example for all good", recited Betty.

Azula tried to say but she was finding it hard to stay awake. Ursa realized this.

"My dear, you must stay awake no matter what", she warned.

"Their pure hearts set an example for all good", Betty recited again.

"The defensless and . .and weak are. .th. .their first priority", Azula recited.

"All evil. . . .", started Betty but then Azula finished with her.

". . . .is their enemy."

Inside the cave the group hears the sound of a boom box playing loudly.

"Urgh what is that racket", asked Zhao.

"I personally think it's pretty good", smiled Betty.

"Long", shouted Ursa, "If you don't mind, we need your help."

"Oh Ursa, sure thing babe", said a voice in there the music died down and he exited.

Ursa told everyone to leave; the stretcher was laid on a table like rock which was before the huge creature that came out. Only Betty and Ursa remained near Azula.

"Nice to see you Ursa, daughter of Avatar Roku", said the huge creature which was obviously a dragon.

"As is mine", smiled Ursa, "My father and his followers loved your kind and called you friend."

'Long' looked to Azula. "Hmph. Well if it isn't the cruel Azula and is so mean and full of trickery. Is this why you cam for you me you dragon slayer's wife!"

"Dragon slayer's widow", corrected Ursa. "This girl is not at all like her father. This Galactic Gaurdian is her mentor. She has taught them their code. I need your help" She added that last part with pleading eyes.

She pulled back the dressings revealing the puncture.

"Oh man", said 'long' "The wound is deep. You know what you ask of me."

"I will teach her your ways. She will grow to be just and good, I swear", said Ursa.

"Not good enough dogs. The girl must swear. Give me your laser sword Gaurdian", said 'Long.'

"Your sword", asked Ursa to Betty.

Betty reluctantly pressed her bracelet and her laswer sword came out and she handed it over to 'Long' who took it. Nearby Azula gasped in fear, Ursa spoke to her.

"Don't be afraid. She can save you", she whispered.

"long held the sword over Azula, "Alright girl, now swear this to me. Swear that your father's bloodlust, tyranny, foolishness and greed died with him. Swear that you will live and rule with mercy. Come to me and learn the one's ways. Do you swear?"

"I swear. . ." started Azula but then her eyes closed and she stopped breathing. Betty kneeled close.

"Azula? Azula?" She growled and shouted, "SHE'S DEAD!" She grabbed her laser sword in anger.

"Woah woah, peace Galactic Gaurdian", said 'Long', "Observe this dog. It's the wonder of an ancient glory."

We only saw a shadow but he 'Long' lifted up a scale on his chest and literally used his claw to cut a hole open we don't see much but a light and the sound of a heart beat. That light enters Azula's chest and she inhales deeply. 'Long' seals it with a breath of his fire.

"Half my heart to make you whole", he said, "It's strength to purify your weakness. Live and remember what you swore."

Azula awoke alive and well. Zhao and the servants who have returned gasped in amazement. Ursa bowed in respect and left with Azula who was still on the strecture. Betty turned to leave but then turned back to 'Long'.

"I serve the father only for the sake of the daughter. All my hopes rest with her. Forgive a doubting fool. You may call what you will of me and ask what you will of me. For my bracelet and my service are yours to have", she said holding up the arm with her bracelet.

'Long' was silhouetted where no one could see him but he said, "Always remind her always of her vow. . .Galactic Guardian." He then headed back into the caves.

The party continues toward the castle. Azula now having regained more of her senses looks up to Zhao.

"Zhao", she said. Zhao looks down to her a bit surprised yet pleased she is awake.

"The D'ni came above ground and once built this ruin. I will rebuild it and it shall be even greater. It will even put the castle of Cair Paravel to shame!" she said this with a evil smirk.

"Sounds good, but it will take a lot of men to do this", said Zhao.

"Yes. . ." said Azula smirking.

Some time, days or hours later whenever workers were taken from the village and they had begun working in a quarry taking stone and rebuilding it. Azula herself watched the operation apon her Rapidash.

Zhao came up with three prisoners in interlocking stalks. Azula smirked for the Prisoners were Mr. Parker, Dan and her brother Zuko.

"Not so rebellious now", asked Azula. "And now do you feel sorry you left our father Zu Zu?"

"Not in the smallest", said Zuko, "Father was ignorant and a monster. I just hope that guardian taught you to do better!"

"You should be thanking us. For it was our rebellion that made you Fire Lord", said Mr. Parker with some defiance. His son Noah watched from afar in a tree.

Feeling that Mr. Parker had insulted his Fire Lord put a sword to his neck.

Azula waved her hand. "No no no. No martyrs. Death should be a release. . not a punishment. Give them the poker." As Zhao went to get one she smirked to Mr. Parker. "Look alive Parker. I am the last thing I will ever see."

Zhao approached with a flaming hot poker.

"Burn the insolence out of his eyes" she said laughing. Mr. Parker was held but gaurds as Zhao approached, he then started pleading. But just then there was a 'HI-YAH!"

Betty had kicked Zhao down and used her bracelets laser to free the three prisoners. "RUN!" she shouted.

They did so, Dan knocking a guard in the process. Azula got angry she lightning bended her mentor who dodged.

"HOW DARE YOU DEFY ME!" she shouted.

Betty walked up. "Azula, you are not well, you have been tricked. Bewitched! Look what you are having these villagers do! It's madness!" She sighend and said, "Remember the code."

"You fool, the Fire Lord is above the code!" She went to grab her laser sword but Betty grabbed her and flinged her on the ground. "YOU IDIOT!" she shouted, "Have you forgotten what I taught you all these years? No one is above the code. . .especially any rulers of any kind."

Azula looked off as if what she said didn't mean much. Betty cried and hugged her. Then in rage she took her own Rapidash and rode off.

Atomic Betty held her light and was inside 'Longs' cave. But the dragon had long since departed.

"DRAGON!" she shouted, "I LOVED THAT GIRL AND YOU CHANGED HER! YOU TRICKED US ALL, ESPECIALLY ME!"

She whirled around and said, "NO MATTER WHERE YOU FLY, NO MATTER WHERE YOU SHALL GO I WILL FIND YOU! TODAY I SHALL MAKE A NEW VOW! FROM NOW ON UNTIL MY LIFE ENDS, I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN!"

to be continued. . .

Me: All right, hope you enjoyed that, by the way, that code was something me and a friend of mine made up for a Atomic Betty rp we do and I used it with his permission. I know it sounds corny but I wanted to use something a little more original and not completely copy the Old Code from Dragonheart. And FYI, I never saw American Dragon but I have seen some parts of the character from other fanfics and with a help from that same friend I hope I got the personality right. Hope you liked it.
