Loving A Demon
Authors notes I don't own Avatar The Last Airbender and this is completely AU to the series just a warning to some fans who like certain characters like Aang, Katara and Sokka they wont be in this fic. Any notice to anyone who's read my previous ATLA fics Kalo will be human in this fic.
Chapter 3 rides and talks
As June and Kalo soon left the bar and got on Nyla the Shirshu had Long Feng's scent and now the hunt was on to find the former Dai Li leader and give him what he deserves.
The two of them knew this trip would take a while as everyone who'd gone looking for Feng said that he never stayed in a single place for more than 2 days at a time so that meant he could be anywhere. And to kill time the two of them decided to get to know each other a bit better especially since they would be working together to find Long Feng.
June then said "You said you had no loyalty to Ozai. Kalo what did you mean by that?"
Kalo was silent for a moment before he answered "A few years ago I was a Fire Nation general serving here in the Earth Kingdom. I was ordered by my superiors to destroy several towns and villages in response to rebellions against our rule. I remember 1 town I was ordered to burn to the ground. It was a village that only had women, children and the elderly left as all those who could fight had already left to join the Earth Kingdom army. I was told that if I didn't destroy the entire town my family would be killed for my cowardice and treason, so I ordered my men to do as they were ordered to do. Shortly after that I returned to the Fire Nation and told then Fire Lord Azulon and his son Ozai that I was quitting the army and they could accept that and have 1 less enemy or if they attacked me I would lead what soldiers I could against them in a civil war that would have no doubt torn the Fire Nation apart. They both agreed to let me retire and after I faked my death in accident involving a Fire Nation warship I came back here to the Earth Kingdom and began trying to make up for my war crimes anyway I can".
June didn't say a word for a few minutes as she thought of what she was just told, and she now knew who this man was this was Kalo Tzhang the former Fire Nation supreme commander of the Fire Nation military forces in the western Earth Kingdom, she knew that the Earth Kingdom had a bounty of 200 thousand gold pieces on his head. But she then realised something from what he said.
June then said "Your talking as if your on a timetable Kalo, why is that exactly?".
Kalo took a deep breath and looked at the sky before he answered "Your right June there is a reason why I want Long Feng dead. I want him dead so that this peace that is coming from the end of the war lasts and so that the world is made a lot brighter when I'm gone. I'm dying June".
June only said "I'm sorry" and after that all conversation stopped as Nyla slowed down and they found themselves in a forest that was damp and wet and both of them knew what had happened the rain and got rid of the rest of the scent it would be now next to impossible to find Long Feng by Nyla's tracking abilities now.
As the both of them started looking around the now deserted campsite June called out "Kalo I've found some tracks, made by a group of at least 6 people, 5 in Dai Li uniforms the other in upper class attire. Long Feng was here, these tracks are at least 6 days old. Can you track them Kalo?".
Kalo looked at the footprints and said with determination in his voice "I can, now we have to hurry we are gaining of them at least for now". the two of them then got back on Nyla and headed off following the tracks left by Long Feng and his Dai Li agents.
Soon the trail that was behind by Long Feng and his men led Kalo and June to a place they were sure Long Feng would not go back to, Ba Sing Se. However the two of them were determined to get Long Feng no matter what stood in their way. They also knew the best place to begin looking for Long Feng would be 1 place Lake Laogai itself.
Authors notes well that's chapter 1 completed let me know what you think of it read and review no flames though ok. And i recommend readers check out fics written by Appa Appa Away and SaphirePhoenix101 as they are 2 of the best authors on this site in my opinion.
