Hey everyone! This is my first Avatar fanfic. I have seen the show before, like I think starting two or three years ago, and marathoned it like five or six times. Anyway this is slightly AU because its based of the comic after the end of the show, and I only have read two out of the four books because I can't find the last two, unfortunately. And I read it last year, so I don't remember everything. But I will still make this good.

This also has scenes from the show, (mainly flashbacks) and you know since this follows along with the comic, it follows along with the search for Zuko's mother, Ursa. I haven't read many Avatar fanfics, and I haven't read or seen a summary that says its about finding his mother, so if you think this is copying someone, I will say 'NO!' since I haven't read any or seen any before.

About the AU thing, this isn't all AU, its like half AU if you know what I mean. I also heard a few things that I haven't read, such as Azula joining the gaang, so that will happen later in this.

After typing this in my notes, by the way, I had to type it on my account and post it immediately because I freaken love this chapter and its only the first. But because I'm working on other fanfics, this may take awhile to update, even if you are begging me to continue and update faster. (sorry) At least you get to see this much. That's better than nothing.

So this first part is the prolouge because of how short it is. Its a recap from the show, and its too short to be the only thing in this, so I added chapter one to it. (Yay!) Enjoy it! R&R, Follow/Favorite if you want. I'm not forcing you to, but I would like that. Even if you give me tips, that will make me happy. (Maybe I will think about this more and update faster if people favorite/follow, but I will update it anyway, no matter what.

And like I said at the top, that this is based on my memory, and a few weeks ago I ended a marathon of the show, so something may be wrong. (just so you know) Point out any mistakes, sorry if I'm bugging you with this long Author's note, but the rest will be shorter than this.

Well...enjoy!


Quote: And one day the Fire Nation didn't attack. Peace through all the earth came back after the matter of time when the Phoenix King, Ozai, was defeated, and the 'thought I would become the Fire Lord', Azula had lost to Zuko and Katara during the Agni Ki. (I think I spelled that right.) The new peaceful world continued.

Prologue

"Why have you come here?" Zuko's father questioned in concern as his head was against the wall of the prison.

"You can't see that you are speaking to the new Fire Lord. You have no rights to not listen to what I have to say," Zuko's fierce tone ran throught the metal bars, as they echoed in the room.

"Why are you really here?" His head turned slightly in the direction of him.

"Because you are going to tell me something that you should have told me a long time ago," his said explicitly.

"And what is that?"

He moved his head closer, showing his face more to him. "Where is my mother?"

...

Chapter 1 A Chance To Change

"Cannonball!" Aang yelled as he airbend jumped off a cliff into a lake, following Momo, who swooped down and was splashed by the cold water flying up in the air. Aang's head popped out, as he grinned, and then Momo scrambled across his shoulders and around his neck.

"Its been a long time since we've actually done something like this. Now since the war is over, we don't really have anything to focus on," Katara pointed out as she stood in the water. The was had ended a week ago, after Zuko, the new Fire Lord had announced that it was finally over.

"That's your problem. Now I have the time to relax her for as long as I want." Toph fell back onto the rocky ground. "Ah, this is the life." Her hands landed behind her head.

"Wouldn't you rather jump in here and relax?"

"Me in water? You are talking to a blind girl who uses her feet to see. I would rather stay here and actually enjoy myself, being able to see. My feet won't last long in there." Katara frowned at the statement.

"What about you Sokka? You've been working on that ever since we got here."

"I'm almost done." His hands were all over the place on construction with whatever he was making. Then he moved out of the way to reveal his work. There, he revealed something with cat tail as hair, and a weird face. "Ta da!"

"Is that a blubbering blob monster?" Aang pointed at the figure Sokka made, which he was proud of.

"No! It's Suki," he corrected angrily.

Aang made his surprised look and laughed hard. Katara did too, and Toph just laid there in her half shady spot, picking her nose.

"Says from the artistic one who gave me Momo's ears, and drew Appa with feet coming out of his head." Appa then did his growl as response to his name.

"I told you those were his horns, and that they were your hair loopies," he told her annoyingly.

"Well I think its sweet," Suki interrupted, as she gave a small smile.

"And I think its great!" Toph blurted out sarcastically.

"Thank you. I work really..." He paused. "Why do you feel the need to do that?" Toph ended up laughing instead of speaking, while the others did too.

"I at least think someone should come in here," Katara changed the topic. Then she looked at Toph and approached her slowly. Toph wasn't paying attention to the movements coming at her. Then Katara grabbed her, pulling Toph into the water as she panicked.

"Aah, help me! I can't swim!" she desperately yelled. Katara then frowned.

"You have feet you know." And then Toph stood up straight, noticing that the water wasn't as tall as her. She grunted and walked back to her spot and earthbended at small rock tent to cover herself.

Katara sighed and then went back to what she was doing before. But in a matter of minutes, only a few minutes later, someone showed up.

"Someone's coming." Toph released the rock and she yelled at them in warning. They all turned their gaze at the forest next to them where the person was coming from, waiting for the being to show himself or herself.

Aang grabbed his staff, Katara held up water in the air, Sokka got his boomerang ready, and Toph earthbended with a rock in the air.

"Come out, or else we will come to you!" Sokka yelled at the figure in the forest. The figure, or the she, showed herself, revealing the face. A girl with long black hair, came up from behind the shadows and then her face showed.

They all gasped, widening eyed.

"Azula!" Katara spoke. "Don't tell me you are here for a rematch." Azula lifted an eyebrow, being somewhat confused.

"What do you want with us?" Aang wondered as he frowned.

"I need to talk to Zuko." They all turned their faces towards each other, being surprised. What sid she even want with him anyway?

And no one knew because she wanted Zuko to mostly know about this. But he was gone, some place else, faraway, well not too faraway.

"Why do you need him anyway?" Toph's hand almost made the rock move at her, but she controlled it, leaving it still.

"I'm not here to fight all of you." She crossed her arms. "I wanted to say something that he will want to know too."

Aang turned to Katara, who shook her head no, and to Sokka, who did the same.

Then he sighed. "She isn't trying to attack us. Can't we just listen to what she wants?'

"No," Sokka bumped in. "She's trying to trick us into dropping our weapons so she can strike. Whatever she has to say doesn't need to be heard. Why would she have something after trying to kill Katara and you?"

This time Katara turned to Aang. "He's right. All she has done to us was try to hurt us, and she followed along with Ozai in the war before the comet. She shouldn't get to be here after what's she done to us."

Aang sighed again. "Alright. Leave then. If my friends don't want you here, then you can't be here. Also you came at the wrong time. Zuko hasn't been with us for awhile."

She grunted out of anger and disappointment and left them.

"What was that all about?" Toph wondered the second Azula disappeared and she dropped the rock onto the ground.

"I don't know. But I have the feeling she needs to say what she has to say. Maybe we should listen," Aang responded.

"You shouldn't. All she has done is try to hurt us. Like Katara said, she followed along with the Fire Lord. And she can still firebend, so we can't take any risks," Sokka continued.

"But she looked like she was struggling for some reason. She didn't win the battle and because Ozai lost, she might not have anything to do now. She could be telling the truth about wanting to tell us something."

Sokka's eyebrow raised. But then it turned to Toph, who had something else to say.

"He's right. She wasn't lying about needing to tell something that Zuko would want to know. It seemed like she wanted him to know the most out of all of us."

"Oh great. How about we give her a 'not as much as an enemy' award," Katara sarcastically said to Toph.

"I'm just saying that she wasn't herself. The other times she's come up to us, she always got ready to fight, even if she wasn't going to."

"Toph makes a good point. she did do that every time we saw her. I don't think this time she was trying to attack us," Aang added.

"Well, I think we should wait to see if she comes back. If we let her speak, then we will know what she wants. And then maybe whatever it is, we can tell Zuko about it somehow," Sokka also added. "I can't tell what she is planning, but we can still trust her somehow."

"Do what you want..." Toph crossed her arms. "but I won't get involved with this. If she speaks, then she speaks. If we help her, then we help her. I won't get in the way with this."

Aang looked back into the forest, staring inside. Then he turned back to the rest. "For now, we can talk about it. If she does come, we will let her talk. But if she doesn't come back, we won't worry about it anymore. If there is a way for her to show that she changed, then maybe we can help her or let her join for awhile."

Katara finished her talking. ''With what you're saying, lets stop thinking about this for now. We came here to relax, not to get in another fight or argument about something like this. For now, just do what you were doing before."

"Well I'm going back inside." Toph made her earth tent again and the others went back to what they were doing.

It was possible she would want to join, but it could have just been something she needed help with since she really was struggling. It was hard to determine and only she knew what she wanted help with. They all had to find out so they could get this mess over with.

But with all their different thoughts about this, it could take a long time to get it over with.


Did you like it? Was it funny? Do you think they will help Azula and let her join at some point? Those are your questions.

So you know this is mostly AU so far. I don't exactly remember what happened in the comic, except for Toph's metalbending school, and Zuko talking to Ozai about his mother, but anyhow, I will still make this good no matter what happens.

...

I was laughing so hard typing to humorous parts in this chapter. I almost couldn't type because of how much I was laughing. I wonder how much you found this funny.

But also if you noticed, lots of these quotes from the Gaang, are similar to parts in the show. (Such as when Zuko showed up at the air temple to join them, and the part where Sokka was painting everyone in the last episode, and blah, blah, blah, you know what I mean.) This will end up having similar parts, so get ready to see what they are.

See ya next chapter!
