Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar: The Last Airbender or Fairy Tail.


It was three days since the Changling incident and Levy with the help of Lucy and Toph helping her over the past two days examine the spell and they found a way to return everyone to their original bodies,it was Toph who suggested that she use the spell on everyone at once and hope they switched to the right bodies but Levy and Lucy finally a loophole and they once used on everyone at the same time, they returned to their original bodies much to the frustration of Happy and Makarov who were stuck in Erza and Mira's bodies. After they were all in their bodies, Toph suggested they never speak of it again to which everyone agreed.

Inside the guild hall Aang and Toph were sitting at the bar and Makarov had finalized the addition of the two benders to Fairy Tail, he made a point that even though they weren't technically mages, nobody outside the guild had to know and as long as their bending was able to pass as magic it would be okay. With that Aang and Toph were now members of Fairy Tail and Aang was drinking a pineapple punch. "Toph you have to try this." Aang as there was a wide smile on his face. Aang now had the Fairy Tail guild emblem on his left shoulder and it was the same sky blue colour of his Airbender tattoos.

"No thanks, Twinkle Toes. I'll be heading out on a job now so if you don't mind." Toph said as Mira had stamped the Fairy Tail mark on Toph's right arm and it was dark green in colour.

"You're going by yourself! Don't you need help?" Mira asked

"I don't need you guys taking care of me. I am very capable of taking care of myself thank you." She said and she began to walk to the request board.

"But you can't see, and you wouldn't know what request to take because of that fact."

"I going to get Elfman or whatever his name is to go with me." She said as she was scraping something out of her toenails. "Yeah, that did it." She said as she flicked it and Aang and Mira shared disgusting looks with each other. "So I know that Armor Queen is an S-Class Wizard, who else in this guild are of the same league?"

"There are a total of five of us, Erza and I are part of the S-Class wizard. The other three are out on quests right now."

"Right, ya think I'm powerful enough to become an S-Class wizard?" she asked as she began to smirk.

"Toph, you're not even a wizard, plus I think you would have to beat an S-Class wizard in battle to become one, at least that's what I think, it wouldn't surprise me." Aang said.

"Well, I'm off I'll be back whenever I can… Hey! Elfman lets go on a job!" she yelled as she walked to him.

"Are you sure you're alright with Toph talking to him like that? I mean he is your younger brother." Aang asked

Mira closed her eyes and smiled. "Not at all… besides I'm sure those two will get along fine. So what do you plan to do today?"

"Well first I gotta figure out where I'm going to live and I don't think that living here will be an option for much longer, by the way, I know I have been here for more than a week so how did Toph get enough Jewel to live in Fairy Hills?"

"She paid with literal gold coins; the master was of course over joyed."

Aang put his hand on his chin. "So how that is how she did it? She gold pieces from the Earth Kingdom. Well I just hope that this will be one of those problems that will sort itself out."

Lucy walked to the two of them in her blue and white collared shirt with a blue skirt and her black boots, she had a slight depressed look on her face. "Morning Lucy." Aang greeted.

"You don't look okay." Mira commented.

"My rent for my apartment will be due soon." She said as she slumped on a seat.

"How soon?"

"Tomorrow!" she exclaimed

"So just do a job." Aang simply said.

"I would, but Natsu has gone fishing and I can't find him."

"Then why don't I come with you? And you can take most of the reward money so you can pay off your rent."

"You would do that?"

"Sure, what are friends for? We just need to find one that pays well, and as long as we are helping people in the process that is a bonus for me. Why don't we ask Grey to come with us?"

"I heard he is busy as well." Mira said.

"So it will be just us two?" Lucy asked

"That's okay, this job is all you. I'm just going to back you up. So what are we doing?" Aang asked

Lucy walked over to the request board and one job caught her eye. "What about this one…?" she asked and she ripped the request off the board.

"We have to deliver different kinds of Lacrima to Onibus Town." She said.

"Lacrima are those crystal ball things, right? I dunno. And they are only paying us exactly seventy thousand Jewel according to this…"Aang suddenly saw a request off a board and he took it. "How about this one, subdue a Weretiger!" he exclaimed with a wide smile on his face.

"Are you crazy!?" the blonde exclaimed. "I wanted a request were we wouldn't be fighting!"

"We're not going to fight, it says we need to stop it from terrorizing a place called Helix Town, I'm good with animals, trust me. If all goes well we can be back from this job without raising a fist, plus look how much it pays." Aang said trying to convince her to take the job and she had a grin on her face when she noticed that the reward was 200,000 Jewel for this job.

"Let's do it! I'm all fired up!" she exclaimed.

"Uh I think another Natsu is the last thing this guild needs." Aang said.

"I agree with you on that one." Mira said.

They both were about to walk out of the door. "Hey Toph, Lucy and I are going on a job."

"Hey don't let me stop ya, oh and if I see Katara, I'll let her know you're with your new girlfriend." Toph smirked. "Where is that cat when you need him, he's the only one who does the whole 'She Likes him' right.

"It's not like that!" Lucy shouted.

"Yeah, and… what do you know about Katara and I?" Aang asked

"The better question is what don't I know, I may be blind but I'm not stupid you had googly eyes for Sugar Queen, I'm just amazed Sokka never picked it up, but hey if and when we see her again, my lips are sealed but you owe me a favor which will be named at a later date." She gave her cheeky smile as they were at the door. "Enjoy yourself out there." She said and they both left the guild.


Meanwhile Natsu was fishing in a river near the East Forest and Happy was flying above him and it seemed as if nothing was biting. "C'mon Natsu. I'm hungry…" Happy complained.

"I can't catch anything it looks like nothing is biting today." Natsu replied and he saw a basket full of fish a distance from where he was. "Happy look!" he yelled and the blue cat yelled in elation.

"FISH!" he flew over the basket of fish, Natsu ran after him because he was feeling hungry as well and they began to chow down on the fish that was inside.

Footsteps were being heard and a girl with long dark brown hair tied in a braid and she wore a blue outfit that didn't look native to Magnolia saw the two eating the fish. "HEY! That's my fish!" she yelled and water flowed out of the water skins on her back and she made a huge bullet of water that punched both Natsu and Happy into the lake. She walked over to the basket. "Well at least you didn't eat all of them." She looked at the two in the lake.

Natsu walked out of the lake and he glared at the girl. "Hey! Why'd ya do that?!"

"You were eating my food… and I figured you wouldn't listen to reason so I pushed you in the lake to teach you a lesson."

Happy walked out of the lake. "I hate that lesson…" he said as he wrung water out of his tail.

"Ahh! A talking cat!?" she exclaimed and she backed away from Happy

"Where is the fish?" he blunty asked and he walked to the basket.

"Don't you learn at all?"

"Sorry nothing was biting at the lake, Happy saw your fish and I was hungry too."

The girl sighed. "Fine, you can have some of my fish, but only if you're able to tell me something."

"Sure, what is it?" Natsu asked while Happy was already helping himself.

"You may think I'm crazy but can you tell me where I am?"


Aang and Lucy had decided to stop by at Lucy's apartment before going on the trip. "I don't see why you would need a change of clothes, we are only going to be there for the day before coming back."

"Yeah, but I'm not leaving it to chance, y'know." Lucy turned and then glared at him. "By the way. When are you going to fix the hole!?" she asked with an irritated voice.

"I guess I forgot about that…" he made the floor in the hole rise an although the floor didn't look properly fixed the floor was mostly back to normal. "So who helps you with the rent for this place?"

"It's just me; I'm the only one who lives here."

"I would have thought Levy would have lived here with you."

"No, but that would be great to have a roommate." She slung her travel bag on her. "Well shall we go?" she asked.

"Yep, but how do we get there, if I had Appa, this wouldn't be a problem."

"We can take a train from Magnolia Station, by the way who is Appa?"

"He's my sky bison… just imagine a giant flying bull." He said.

Lucy imagined her spirit Taurus flying through the air with wings like Happy and he was huge and Lucy was sitting on top of him. "I'll protect your nice body! Lucy-san!" she shook her head.

"Something wrong."

"You put a thought in my head that I would want to forget…" they both left the apartment and began walking down the street and Plue was at Lucy's side.

Yet unaware to them a person was in the stream next to the street and he had a bubble over his head and he had black hair in a short bushy ponytail and he had red paint lines across his cheeks. "The Avatar, I didn't think we would find you so easily…" he said to himself.

Aang suddenly looked back and he saw ripples in the water but no one was there. "Aang, are you okay?" Lucy asked

"Yeah, I just get the feeling we are being followed."

"But who would follow us?" Lucy asked

Aang began to count on his fingers. "Let's see, we can't rule out Toph or Natsu, Grey would have directly come to us, same could be said for Erza… and if the Fire Lord knows I'm still alive then I would be in big trouble."

"But how would the Fire Nation get here?" Lucy asked

"Truth is I don't know how I got here; I guess it's just me being paranoid."

"Don't worry everything will work out."

"I know; that's why I joined up with you guys."

"Aang sorry to ask this but who is Katara? Toph mentioned that name in the guild hall."

"Well…" Aang began to blush. "She was this girl I liked back in my world… she was from the Southern Water Tribe, in fact it was Katara and her brother Sokka that found me frozen in a block of ice, but that's another story for another time, anyway we haven't really talked after we saw a stupid play about ourselves and then here we are."

"Aww, so is she still your girlfriend?" Lucy asked as she gushed.

"What!? NO! It never really got that far… last time we talked about stuff like that she said that she was confused and said that 'now is not the right time'. I dunno, I feel like such an idiot around her. Anyway I'm thinking about this too much… we havento get this job done." Aang began running ahead of Lucy in an attempt to get her to stop asking about Katara.

Lucy sighed and ran after him. "Aang, you're going the wrong way!" she yelled and she picked up Plue and chased after the Airbender. "Aang, you can't keep running from your problems… but who am I to talk…" she thought as she chased after Aang.


The girl who Natsu found at the lake was tilting her head at what the Dragon Slayer just told her. "I already figured out that Magic is used a lot in this world, and you're from a guild called Fairy Tail, but I find it hard to believe that your Guild destroyed a huge land mass of a city, a demon and the fact that you were raised by a dragon."

"Hey! Igneel is real don't tell me he isn't!" he growled

"Okay, well I guess I would consider joining your guild… then again I have to get back home."

"Where do you live?"

"Let's just say I live very far away..."

Happy flew up to the pair of them. "Natsu she could be like Aang." He said and the girl's eyes widened.

"Did you say Aang? And also, since when do cats fly!?"

"Yes, you know him?" Happy asked

"Yes! We're from the same world! C-can you take me to him?!"

Natsu shrugged his shoulders. "Sure why not."

"And you owe me because your friend ate all my fish!"

"Hey, you don't use a rod or nothing, how do you catch fish?"

"Simple." She made an orb of water come out of the lake and a fish was inside it.

"That's Cheating!" Natsu yelled.

"Funny, my brother told me something similar when I showed this to him too, anyway. So can you take me to him now?"

"Who Aang? Yeah sure he should be back at the guild hall."

"Are you a waterbender?" Happy asked.

"Yes, but you just saw me waterbend." She looked to Natsu. "Your cat isn't very bright is it?"

"Why are you being so mean!?" Happy yelled and he sprouted his wings and he flew. "I hate you!" he cried and he flew away.

"You!" Natsu said as he pointed at the girl. "You made Happy sad! Help me find him."

"Sure, whatever and the name's Katara." She said as she ran after Natsu.


Aang and Lucy have made it to Magnolia Station and they got on a train that was heading for Helix Town and it was known that there would be a delay in getting the train moving. Both of them took their seats inside the train

"So what happens now?" Aang asked.

"It looks like we wait." Lucy replied.

A girl who looked close to Aang's age was wearing a red halter top, and had black jean shorts with white sandals, she had small gold earrings and gold bangles on her left wrist. She had gold eyes and short black hair with a white strip on the side. Began to walk to the pair."Can I help you?" Aang asked she eyed the sky blue Fairy Tail guild emblem on his left shoulder and the pink variation on Lucy's right hand.

"Well I would like to know what guild you're both from?" she asked.

"We're wizards from Fairy Tail, and right now we are on a job, at Helix Town." Lucy said proudly.

"Wow, that's quite a distance away isn't it."

"Well not if we use the train, obviously we should get there in say an hour."

"Okay good to know." she took a seat next to Lucy. "So, what are your names?"

"I'm Lucy Heartfilla."

"And I'm Aang, I'm sorta new to the guild I joined today officially."

"Not that I am suspicious but why are you asking so many question?" Lucy asked.

"No reason, I'm just curious. Anyway, I'm going to sit closer to the back, it was nice meeting you, Aang, you two Lucy Heartfilla." And she walked away from the pair.

"I don't think we can trust her, Aang."

"Why not she seemed nice?"

"But most people in Magnolia know who Fairy Tail is, and she just gave off this vibe, I just don't like her she asked too many questions for my liking."

"Now that you mention it, she reminded me of this one person who kept trying to hunt down my friends." Aang began to think of Azula's face and that very face appeared in his mind. He quickly shook his head. "That would be impossible, Ozai may think I'm alive but there is no way he could sent someone to do me in, Toph and I are the only ones that know about this place and even so, we didn't get here on purpose, so there is no way that she could be from the Fire Nation." He said. He looked at Lucy and saw she wasn't convinced. "What's wrong, Lucy?"

"Call it my gut feeling but I still don't trust her."

"Well look at it this way; worst case, she's a wizard but we can take her on since there are two of us. If it comes down to a fight, then I'm sure we'll have the edge."

Lucy smiled. "You're right about that, I guess I'm getting worried for nothing."

The train began moving down the tracks and it was now heading to Helix Town which was an hour away. Aang was trying to entertain himself so he was making a sphere of air in his right palm. Ten minutes into the trip the train began slowing down.

"Not good, why is the train slowing down?" Aang asked.

"You stay here I'll ask up front." Lucy said and she got out of her seat and she walked to the front of the train. She opened the door to the leading carriage and she saw the conductior was knocked out. "What happened?" she said to herself and a figure dropped from the roof in front of the Celestial Wizard, the figure was the girl from before. "I knew it! I should have known you were up to something!" she exclaimed as she reached for her keys but she dodged a light purple fireball that was thrown at her. "You use Fire Magic?"

"Not even close. I'm glad you decided to find me, I can use you as a bargaining tool to capture the Avatar."

"The…Avatar? Aang!?" Lucy realized. "But how? You're not supposed to be here."

"Neither is he, that Airbender is supposed to be in ground by now, but he ended up here, there is a mysterious force in the Forest where he was defeated, that force is what brought us here. I'm not even sure if there is a way back, but none of that matters, if the Avatar dies in this world we have reason to believe the Avatar cycle will cease to exist."

"Avatar Cycle?"

"A new Avatar is born when one meets his/her end, but if the Avatar is killed in this world, there will be no vessel to become the Avatar in this world since there aren't any benders here but before I do all of that I have to get the Avatar to surrender and you will be the one who will make that kid give up." She grabbed Lucy's arms and put her fingers on fire and aimed them to her back. "Try anything stupid, and you will be as good as cooked."

"So, you're a Firebender?"

"Nothing gets past you does it?" She said and she walked into the compartment that Aang was in. "Come out Avatar!" she yelled and Aang looked and saw that it was the girl from before and she blasted a light purple fire stream into the air and it blasted through the roof of the train. All the civilians abandoned the train.

"Lucy!" Aang yelled and he showed himself. "What's a Firebender doing here?"

"What do you think, we came looking for you, but I'm going to make this an easy choice for you, surrender to me so I can capture you and deliver to back to the Fire Nation, or you can watch me burn your friend to a crisp. You're choice Avatar…" she giggled with a smirk.

"This is between me and the Fire Nation, so leave Lucy out of it!"

"Wizard, Bender? It doesn't matter I don't care who's fighting who, you have two choices, surrender or watch her die."

Aang needed to think of something quickly finally the train came to a stop and this made the girl move a little and she put her off balance and Aang began running on the walls of the train and he blew a huge wind that forced the girl away from Lucy and she flew back to the end of the carriage. "I'll handle her, you don't need to waste your magical power on her!" suddenly she was blasting fire arcs at the both of them and Aang was trying to keep the flames at bay with his air but this was forcing both him and Lucy backwards.

"We have to get out of here?" Lucy said.

"Who sent you here? Was is Ozai?"

"No he is too busy, bring the world to its knees so Fire Lord Azula is taking over."

Aang clenched his fists. "How many…"

"Huh?"

"How many innocent people have to die, lose loved ones, have to suffer until the Fire Nation has had enough!?" he asked. "For one hundred years they waged war against the world just to take over the other Nations. Tell me as a Fire Nation citizen; don't you feel remorse at all?"

She looked as if she didn't care. "As if I care about the state of the rest of the world. All that matters is that we take the world by storm, we are the dominant nation, the entire world will tremble before our power. But the only one standing in our way is you, Avatar and with your death, will come a shining new dawn for the Fire Nation."

Aang made the air around the cabin rotate around him and he glared at the Fire nation girl. "I will not let that happen! The Fire Nation will not get away with this!" the sphere of air was around him and he sped over to the girl and she blasted fire at him but the flames bounced off the air sphere and she was pushed back to the door. "Lucy, we're leaving!" she nodded in response.

"Don't think you're getting away that easy!" the girl yelled and she moved her hands in a circular motion and she blasted a flash of lightning from her two pointing fingers to the pair and Aang's eyes widened and grabbed Lucy's hand and he jumped over the bolt of Lightning and he blasted a stream of fire that blew the roof of the carriage open and he made air scooters appear on his feet and he lifted Lucy out of the train as he flew and they both landed on the ground outside and Aang made curved rock pillars discharge from the ground and they trapped the girl inside the train as they curved over the ceiling of the train but left some spaces of air so she could breathe inside.

"We have to get out of here!" Aang exclaimed. "We need to get to Helix Town before more of them show up."

"Wait, there is more of them?"

"I wouldn't put it past Azula, she could have sent a whole Fire nation army for all I know, we have to get to Helix town and finish this job as soon as possible!"

Lucy nodded and they both started running towards Helix Town.


It was heading for sunset and both Aang and Lucy were beginning to get tired from the long distance walk. "Are we close?" Aang asked.

"We might get there if we walk another hour." She fell on her knees. "I can't go on!" she exclaimed.

Aang looked out into the rocky landscape they were in as they followed the train tracks. "Okay, we'll rest here. Firebenders might still be out there so I'll take the first watch."

"No!" Lucy exclaimed. "If there are Firebenders, you are better suited to take them on than I am, you need rest more than I do. I'll take the first watch." Lucy said.

"Thanks… Lucy." Aang said before dropping onto his back and succumbing to sleep.

Lucy sat down and she hugged her knees to her chest and looked up into the sky. "Fire Nation, how can they be so despicable as to want to take over the world like that." She looked to the sleeping Air Nomad. "And he was supposed to stop them, and yet he is just a child."


Natsu and Katara had found Happy and he was walking around looking for another lake. "Happy!" he heard and he looked behind him.

"Natsu!" Happy… happily screamed as he ran to the both of them but he noticed Katara was there as well. "Why is the water witch here?" he asked as he pointed to the girl with his paw.

"Water Witch!?" Katara exclaimed angrily. "Okay, I'm sorry I yelled at you for eating my fish, and for calling you stupid, and that your probably have fleas in your head which is why you're so stupid."

"You never said that."

"Forget what I just said!" Katara quickly replied. "I wanted to say I'm sorry so here is a piece offering." She handed him a fish that was the same size as the blue cat.

"FISH!" he exclaimed and he began hugging it.

"You were right; I can buy his friendship with fish. So you said Aang is back at this guild that you are also in."

"That's right, so is the blind, mean girl." Happy said while his mouth was on the fish.

"Toph! A short, snarky blind girl?" Natsu nodded. "I would have thought she would have been captured by the Fire Nation after she ran away from us." Katara looked up at the sky and saw that the night was approaching. "It's going to be dark soon, do you anywhere that we can sleep for now."

Happy flew up to their heights while holding his fish. "I know the perfect place!"

"Why does that give me a bad feeling?" Katara asked.

Later they found themselves in front of Lucy's apartment. "Are you serious!? I'm not going to sleep in someone's place without permission."

"It's alright, Lucy lets us sleep here all the time." Natsu lied.

"After knowing you two for a day, I am inclined to not believe you." She began walking back to the forest. "You two do what you want; we'll talk again in the morning." Katara walked away from the pair and left to head back to the forest.


In a rocky path Aang was sleeping on the ground while Lucy was still keeping watch, it was now night as a crescent moon was in the sky and the Celestial Wizard could barely keep her eyes open as she had to keep her eyes open for Firebenders. Suddenly, a piece of ground she was standing on suddenly shot out of the ground like a pillar and she was screaming her head off and she saw a wave of sharp earth protrusions spreading towards Aang. But she saw he was gone when she covered her eyes and she landed on the ground. "Aang! Where are you?!" she yelled out.

"Uh, right here." He replied and Lucy saw Aang being carried bridal style by Virgo. "Can you put me down, Virgo."

"My apologies, shall I ask the princess to punish me?" Virgo asked as she put him down.

"Uh that won't be necessary." Lucy said as she realized something. "Wait! How did you get here, you opened the gate yourself!?"

"Yes, I can achieve this but I only come out myself in necessary situations

"Wait, wouldn't that drain Lucy's magic?" Aang asked.

"Yes, but not to the point where it would be impossible to keep me in the human world."

They saw another rock speeding their way but Virgo punched it. "So your spirits can open their gates by themselves, then taking your keys would have been a waste of time Lucy Heartfilla." They heard and they saw a tanned person exit the dust cloud and he was in a sleeveless Earth Kingdom robe with brown pants and boots with steel soles, he had spiky armbands, he had light green eyes and had spiky brown hair. "It seems the info we got on you was correct, but you can't stop me from taking the Avatar."

"An Earthbender? Why are you here?"

"To carry out the will of the new world, also I get to break stuff and I get a kick out of that, my team and I have been entrusted with bringing the Avatar back, dead or alive!" he summoned three rocks from the ground and he performed a swipe kick and sent them to the three but Aang made a curved rock wall.

"You're not in the Fire Nation, why are you helping them!?"

"My family has been promised our weight in gold if my team and I complete this task, that and our city will be spared from Ozai's fire, either way, we win as soon as you go down!" he punched the ground and made the ground shake below them and this put them off balance and he made a huge boulder rise into the air and he threw it down on them and this made a shockwave that blew back Aang and Lucy but Virgo dug her fingers into the ground.

"Relax princess, I shall defeat this enemy!" she then dug into the ground and a hole was seen.

"Oh, so that's how Virgo saved me back there." Aang said to himself. "I'll keep him distracted while Virgo does her thing." He ran to the view of the Earthbender. "Hey! You want me! Come and get me!" Aang shouted.

"Gladly!" he made numerous pillars shoot out of the ground but Aang was on top of them and was jumping from Pillar to pillar with the help of his airbending and he jumped off and he made an airball in his hands and he slammed it into the ground and this made a hemispherical air wave that blew back the Earthbender, he slid to his feet suddenly the ground below him cracked. "Huh?" suddenly he was uppercut by Virgo and he flew to the air.

Virgo planted her hands on the ground and many pieces of the ground were rising into the air. "Spica Lock!" she yelled and the many rocks enveloped and sealed the Earthbender in the rocks and electric bolts were coming from the spaces the rocks made when mashed together.

But the rock seal shattered and the rocks went flying everywhere. He had a smirk on his face. "Did you really think that would work, against an Earthbender!?" he threw the rocks back at Virgo but she performed a back hand spring and she flipped back from the attack meanwhile Aang was behind him in the air and he had air scooters on his feet. He made a huge ball of air and he threw it on the Earthbender and this sent him falling to the ground at a fast speed and there was a crater and he was at the bottom of it and he opened his eyes and he used an Earth pillar to shoot himself out of the ground. "That didn't even hurt, the air cushioned my fall!"

"That's the point! I'm trying not to hurt you."

"Foolish, boy! You won't even take me seriously! You will pay!" he made medium sized boulders orbit around him and he shot them toward the ground.

Virgo grabbed both Aang and Lucy by the waist. "Hold on." And they fell into a hold that Virgo made and they dodged the attack.

"I'm not going to lose to you!" he covered Virgo's hole and he heard a sound behind him and he looked back and saw the three were now in the air and Virgo still held onto them.

"Virgo, I need you to throw me at him as hard as you can!" Aang said.

"I understand, Avatar!" and while they were in the air she let go of Aang and she grabbed his left arm and threw him towards the Earthbender and he was going to perform a kick and began spinning and this made him an air cyclone that sped towards the enemy and he made an earth wall to defend himself but Aang broke right through it and there was a huge dust cloud and the cloud began spinning as Aang made a small whirlwind that was spinning the Earthbender in a huge circle around him and he shot him in a huge air blast and as he rose up high in the air he opened his eyes and he saw Virgo right in front of him.

"Oh crap…" he said and he was met with a very hard kick by Virgo and he flew into the sky and he comically flew into the distance and he made a glint in the sky as the kick must have sent him a few miles into the distance.

Virgo landed on the ground and she looked at Lucy. "So, is it time for my punishment princess?"

"N-no, just go home." Lucy said while sweatdropping. "Thanks for everything." Virgo disappeared in a gold light.

Aang looked into the distance. "We have to keep moving Lucy, if we can get to Helix Town then we won't be attacked, not in front of the towns people anyway."

"But I never got any sleep!" she complained.

"F-fine, we'll compromise."


Later moving down the path however Aang was carrying Lucy who was sleeping on his back and he going through with an air scooter below his feet and he tried to keep the ball of air going and he was sweating as it was proving difficult to keep his air ball going and carry Lucy at the same time. The air scooter slowly disappeared and he began running on the ground at a fast speed and he could see the lights of a town far ahead and he tripped on a stone and he fell on the ground and Lucy rolled off him.

"What's the big idea!?" Lucy yelled.

"I really don't want to say this, but I'm not carrying you again. Do you have any idea how heavy you are?"

"What are you saying?" she asked with a dark aura surrounding her.

"Uh… n-nothing, let's just try to walk the rest of the way." Suddenly a bullet of water splashed into Aang and he flew back and slid on the ground.

"Aang!" Lucy yelled and she crossed her arms and a bullet of water slammed into her and she slid back. She saw someone in a close lake and ice shards sped to her and she dodged them and there were now light cuts on her arms, she saw Aang was knocked unconscious.

"Hahaha!" he laughed maniacally. "It looks like the Avatar is down which means all I have to do is finish you off, Celestial Wiazrd."

"Waterbender? How many of you guys are there!?"

"You'll never know, because you won't live to see our team!" he shot two thick whips out of the water and they grabbed Lucy's arms and he froze the water and she couldn't move her arms he walked towards her and he grabbed her set of keys. "So this is how you summon those spirits of yours, we may have only gotten here about three days ago, but we already know so much."

"Hey! Give those back!" she yelled.

"Maybe I'll keep these as a souvenir after I kill you?"

"You're from the water tribe right? Why are you doing this? The Avatar can help you!" suddenly she was kicked in the gut and she fell to the ground and the ice around her arms shattered.

"The Avatar failed the world, now the Phoenix King takes over! My family was captured and they will be executed unless I capture or kill him!" he exclaimed.

"Your family? We can help you… If they mean so much to you let us help you!" he shot a water bullet at her and she flew to a tree and the water froze her to the tree and she was trapped.

"You, help me. As I would trust wizards to help me, we shouldn't have found this world in the process, someone wanted all this to happen!" he laughed as he looked at the keys Lucy had on the ground. "Tell you what I'll give you a fighting chance, I will randomly pick one of these keys and I will allow you to fight with them… now…" he picked up a golden one and he defrosted the ice freeing Lucy. "I'll give you this one!" he threw it to her and she caught it and the top of her head turned blue. Of all the keys he had to pick that one…

"It's my only chance at beating him." She gulped and she ran to the lake.

"What are you doing?"

"This! Open, Gate of The Water Bearer...!" she dunked half the key in the water and she turned it and a light blue magic circle appeared and appearing out of the water was a woman who resembled a blue mermaid with a darker blue bikini and two gold armbands on her arms, she had long cyan blue hair and had dark blue eyes and wore a gold headpiece around her head with a blue teardrop shaped gem on her forehead that was tied to the headpiece. "Aquarius!"

"Wha-What the hell is that!?" the Waterbender asked.

"Yes, he's confused, attack him while he's stunned!" Lucy commanded.

"Tsk!" Aquarius said and she glared at Lucy.

"Hey! I told you to attack him!"

"And why do you think I should listen to you… HUH?!" she asked and she got her face in Lucy's and her face grew much bigger that Lucy's body to emphasize how intimidating the spirit was.

"This is ridiculous, there is no way a huge fish will stop me!"

Aquarius glared at the Waterbender. "WHAT!?" she asked her eyes filled with fury and they had flames in them.

"Oh shut up will you!" he made water rise from the river and it engulfed Aquarius and it then froze and she was now frozen solid in a huge ice block. "If she is a, water spirit then you're out of luck, I can control water!" the ice around Aquarius began cracking, the ice prison shattered and the Water Bearer had a red aura around her.

"You might be the one person that annoys me more than this one here!" she growled as she jabbed her thumb at Lucy.

"Hey!" the both said.

"Hahaha, are you challenging me?!" suddenly a powerful jet of water blasted out of her urn and it sped to the Waterbender and he outstretched his hand and he stopped it in its path and Aquarius was surprised. "No defective water based enemy can defeat Kobu of the Northern Water Tribe!" he yelled and he blasted the water back at Aquarius and she flew back into Lucy.

"Out of the way!" she said.

"Funny, cause you're on top of me…" Lucy said with spirals in her eyes as she was dizzy.

"You can't change the shape of water, all you are is a really destructive wave that can easily be tamed by a skilled waterbender such as myself!"

Aquarius then glared right at the waterbender. "I will not lose to you, or any water bender!" she yelled and she began sucking water from all of the lake and from the ground.

"Trying to suck all my water, if you really knew water, you would know that it is everywhere!" he bended water from the grass and trees, both of the nature sources died but they too were sucked in by Aquarius' urn. "What the hell?"

When all the water was sucked up she arched her back and she began spinning rapidly and all the water she sucked up was blasted and it spun around her and this created a huge wave and Lucy was already being washed away with it and it engulfed Kobu and the water also caught Aang and there slid on the ground.

Aang was coughing and he looked around. "How did… where did all this water come from?" he asked.

Kobu easily got up and he looked at Aquarius. "You even swept your master away, what kind of spirit are you?" he said as he laughed and she sped over to him as he laughed and she slammed her urn into his face and he fell down to the ground with some blood coming out of his nose and he had swirls that replaced his eyes.

"Annoying little…"

"Who are you?" Aang asked as he got up.

"You are the one?" Aquarius chuckled. "She must really be desperate…"

"Hold on, where is Lucy?" She jerked her thumb to where she was and she was lying on the ground and she also had swirls as her eyes.

"You attacked Lucy as well?! What did she do to you?!"

"She irritates me to no end!" she growled.

"And that gives you the reason to attack her, yet you are one of her spirits... I think. I haven't seen you before though."

"Tsk!" she turned away from him. "I don't have to explain myself to you, least of all Lucy's dumb ass boyfriend!"

"Wait, what!?"

"We are done here!" she disappeared in a golden light and Aang saw Kobu on the ground and drool was coming out of his mouth as he was really unconscious.

He ran over to Lucy and he tried to shake her awake. She began coughing out water and she looked around. "Aang? Where is the Waterbender?" She suddenly got scared. "Where is Aquarius?"

"She left, but can you tell me why she attacked you as well?"

"Don't worry about it, that is just who she is." Lucy got up to her feel but she was still slightly dizzy.

"But aren't spirits supposed to obey their masters?"

"Normally, but she is a different case."

"Man she would fit in better as a spirit in my world. It seems no matter how far we go, more of them show up."

"In that case we should finish this job as soon as possible!" Lucy said with a smile. She knew Aang was getting irritated with all this senseless fighting but she figured as long as she showed Aang that everything was okay then maybe it would rub off on him, or at the very least help him to keep going.

"Y-you're right. We already made it this far, I mean there can't be more of them not when we are this close to the city."

"Yeah, plus I can be pretty sure no airbenders will come after us." She joked but she quickly put her hands over her mouth.

"Yep pretty unlikely!" he said smiling back at her and she breathed a sigh of relief. "Faster we get this job done, then we can get back safe and sound."

"But how are we going to beat a Weretiger?!"

"We're not going to fight it, if there was a thought in my mind that this would come to a fight, I wouldn't have suggested it in the first place."

"I guess you're right… well I'm relying on you."

"Okay." Then began walking down to the town during the night. "Uh, Lucy… there is nothing going on between us, right?"

Lucy was stunned by the question. "What of course you're not you're like thirteen right?"

"Yeah, it's just first Toph, now Aquarius? I'm sensing a pattern here."

"Maybe that people who make our lives that much harder are trying to annoy us?"

"Yeah…sounds about right…" they both began walking to the city.


Soon enough it was sunrise and both got to Helix Town but it was surrounded by a huge concrete wall.

"Reminds me of Ba-Sing-Se, but I can see what's going on behind it at least." He said and jumped very high and saw that Helix Town was a beautiful town with many paths and beautiful looking apartments in the distance; the towns appearance was on par with the Capital of Fiore, Crocus. "It's a pretty town, but these walls can only mean one thing."

"That they must be keeping out the Weretiger." Lucy figured.

"Actually, I was going to say they were keeping out evil wizards with the intent on invading their town, but yeah, the Weretiger theory works too." He received an eye roll from the blonde wizard. "I'm kidding."

They saw a door open and standing in front of it was the mayor and he was quite plump as he wore a royal blue shirt that was puffy on the sleeves and he had a blue pants and had dark blue boots and he wore a purple cape on his back. "You must be those Fairy Tail wizards we have been expecting." He said in a gruff voice. There were also two guards to his sides

"Yeah, we would have got here earlier but we ran into a few… problems."

"Allow me to introduce myself I am Mayor Burgh and this is my town, you should already guess why. Well yer here now, so how do you plan to slay the elusive Weretiger that has been plaguing our town for months?"

"Here's how… by not fighting at all."

"You're joking right? Please tell me this kid is joking?" the mayor said as he sounded like he was begging.

"Don't worry, Aang has this covered… I think." Lucy said as she was uncertain.

"Young man, you can't be thinking or taking on the Weretiger without any protection."

"Of course I am, there has to be a reason why he's attacking your town and I'm going to find out why." He took out his bison whistle and threw it up into the air and he threw a huge air blast at it and this made a high pitched whistling sound that resonated around the entire town and outside of it and the high pitch squeal stopped and Aang caught it.

"What did you just do?" the Mayor Burgh

"Don't worry about it; I just have to listen out for…" they all heard huge steps and they saw a dust cloud running to them. "That must be the Weretiger!" he exclaimed and he stood his ground ahead of it.

"Aang! Are you crazy!?" Lucy yelled.

"Relax, I just have to show that I am not afraid of it." And as it got closer towards him they saw the creature was a bipedal creature with thin legs but fairly thick thighs, it had thin arms and it had sharp claws at the end of its five fingered paws, and it had a mane that was white and its entire coat was orange with black stripes and it had a white underbelly and it the face of a tiger and it had yellow eyes and it howled. It approached Aang and it was about to slice him but he quickly avoided it and he jumped up high and he landed lightly on his head. "What's wrong, can't keep up?" he asked and the Weretiger tried slapping Aang with his paw but he missed at the Avatar jumped off his head and landed on the ground.

He formed an air scooter and as the beast tried to slice him with his claws it missed as Aang jumped up and landed on his hands on top of his air scooter. "You getting tired yet?" he asked but it grab him and he did a handspring that sent him high up into the air and the beast jumped up after him and it tried scratching him numerous times but he was avoided them easily. They Aang landed on the ground and made a cushion for the Weretiger to land on and it then growled at the Avatar.


Soon it was the mid-afternoon and the Weretiger was on its back and Lucy, Mayor Burgh and his guards were asleep. "Uh, are you guys sleeping?" Aang asked and the Mayor instantly got back up and Lucy slowly rose to her feet.

"Geez, why did you take so long?" Lucy asked.

"Long? I had her under control for the past hour I just came back with her cause we went on a walk to understand her situation." Aang explained.

"Hold on it's a girl?" the mayor asked.

"You didn't assume that just because it attacked your town, it was male?"

"Hey I'm surprised too, but what did you find out?" Lucy asked.

Aang put his hand on his chin. "Well from what she tried to tell me… someone in your town has her cub."

"But that is impossible; I don't allow pets in my town." Burgh replied.

"Really? Her nose seems to think otherwise. That is why she attacked you town."

"I refuse to believe any of this, the only way I will pay you is if you slay this violent creature!" the Weretiger began to growl at the mayor and he backed away and hid behind his two guards. "Hurry up and kill it!" he exclaimed and the guards got their spears ready but Aang got in front of the Weretiger.

"No one is killing anyone! You wanna hurt her. You'll have to go through me! Animals are more observant than you think, she knows that you are trying to hurt her, and what else will her instincts tell her to do? Now either you let her sniff around town for her missing cub, or would you rather I let her rip your town to shreds. Your choice!"

"Open the gates." The Mayor said. "I will let this filthy creature search for her cub." But the Weretiger still growled at him. "What did I do now!?"

"You did call her a filthy creature." Lucy said.

"C'mon lets go girl." Aang said and the Weretiger was walking alongside Aang and Lucy.

"You weren't really going to let her go destroy the town, were you?" Lucy asked

"Of course not… but they didn't have to know that." He said as he smiled and he led the Weretiger into town.

"I wonder… how much have we influenced this kid?" Lucy asked as she sweatdropped.

The Weretiger was sniffing around and the town's people were giving the group very weird looks. "Don't worry, girl they won't hurt you." Suddenly a sharp red short knife was thrown to the ground ahead of them and the beast roared and she got angry. "Hey, who threw that?!" The Avatar picked up the blade and examined it. "Oh man I've seen blades like this before. Hey is that…"

The figure jumped down to the ground and took off the robe and it was a girl who had long black hair that was tied in a low ponytail and she had thin eyelids and there was a pair of yellow-gold eyes in them. She wore a black and red sleeveless gi and had dark red sandals"Close, Avatar! But no I'm not Mai. My name is Ping. I am the daughter of the illustrious Tung family of the Fire Nation just so you know I was the one who taught Mai her Shuriken-jutsu. But I am also a skilled swordswoman!" and she pulled out a long katana blade and Aang saw she had another one on her back inside a holster. "Hey you! If I kill this beast for you. Will you give me the reward?" Ping asked looking at the mayor

"Oh absolutely!" he exclaimed and Aang glared at him.

"Okay! I am officially sick of this. Three of your guys came after us, can't you just give us a break!?" Aang yelled.

"You and your friends are guilty for the attempted overthrow and murder of our great Phoenix King Ozai. Your punishment is death, you will die. Right here and now, Avatar."

"Lucy, summon Aquarius again!" Aang said

"I can't without water, I need a body of water to summon her."

"Well she's not a bender, so Virgo will be perfect."

"Okay, give me a sec…"

"Going to summon a spirit, go ahead I enjoy a challenge."

Aang looked at the Weretiger. "Go find a safe place to hide; I'll come get you when this is all over." Aang said she ran on all fours and ran to another section of town. "A Firebender, a Waterbender, an Earthbender and now a crazy girl with swords, I guess there is no shortage of people who want me dead."

"If you come quietly Avatar, then no harm will come to you or your friend."

"You're not taking Aang easily, you'll have to go through me!" Lucy yelled.

"Oh please, I don't even need weapons or bending to defeat you, Lucy. But what else can I expect from the weakest member of Fairy Tail."

"How do you know about the guild?" Lucy asked.

"I asked around before we decided to encounter you, I found this guild called Lamia Scale and these wizards, Yuka, Sherry and some dog. They told me all about you and Galuna Island. On the day we arrived here we saw a bright light shoot up into the sky, my teammates investigated your guild while I began to ask around the country of Fiore that's when I asked those three imbiciles, we had figured out that you joined up with this Guild called Fairy Tail, and now you can't hide from us Avatar. We know where you are and we can strike at any time." She said with a smirk. "We can attack you or your guild at any time." Lucy began laughing. "Is something the matter, does my threat amuse you?"

"If you attack Fairy Tail! You would be making a big mistake! Never underestimate us, Aang and I will take you down."

"Then I dare you to try, blondie."

"She really irritates me!" Lucy growled.

"Why must you refer to me in the third person? I'm standing right here in earshot." She asked while sweatdropping.

"Open, Gate of The Maiden! Virgo!" Lucy yelled and she sped out of the ground and she landed beside Lucy.

"Punishment time, Princess?" she asked

"Will she do that every time you summon her?" Aang asked

"You have no idea!" suddenly the saw Ping running towards Virgo and she threw a slash at the spirit.

Virgo pushed Lucy away and crossed her arms and blocked the strike with the chain shackles on her wrists. Ping jumped back and she put her sword back in her holster. She suddenly had stilettos in her fingers and she threw them at Virgo and they landed around her as she was avoiding them easily but as Virgo ran past the set of stilettos that were thrown at her they exploded and Virgo was caught in the blast.

"Virgo!" Lucy yelled.

"Right, I'm ending this!" Aang jumped up high and he deflected knives thrown at him by making a sphere of air around him for a short time and he landed on the ground and he made pillars of earth rise from the ground in an attempt to make her airborne but this wasn't to be and she was spinning sideways while in the air above the ground and she threw another knife at Aang and it just missed Aang's neck as it sped past in slow motion. "Where is Erza when you need her?!" Aang shot a ball of fire at her knowing she would dodge it, the towns people began running away and a person who had a beard and short black hair was carrying a box. Aang saw a striped tail from outside. "Lucy! He's the one with the cub stop him!"

"Okay!" suddenly the Weretiger sped out and she lifted Lucy and put her on her back and ran after the villain. "Heey! Put me down!" she yelled.

Both Aang and Virgo looked at Ping and she withdrew her blade. "So you've allied yourself with wizards, Avatar Aang. I must say this happened faster than I would have guessed."

"You can come after me all you like, but leave Fairy Tail out of it! They have nothing to do with this!"

"Yes, accept they are harboring a fugitive, someone wanted in the Fire Nation for crimes against the state. They are also guilty, and must also face judgement."

"You won't be able to! There are people in that guild that can easily defeat me without lifting a finger. I will hesitate to kill you, but start a war with them and they might not let you live." Aang threatened.

"I don't have time for empty threats once you're captured, Fairy Tail is next on our list!" she sped to both Aang and Virgo.

"Virgo, I'll bait her, then you finish her."

"Understood!" she burrowed underground through a hole in the middle of town.

Ping rushed over to Aang and tried to slice him but she was missing and Aang blew wind on the ground from his mouth and this forced him into the air and Ping was about to chase after him but an arm grabbed her and Virgo jumped out of the ground and lifted Ping into the air and threw her to the ground but the swordswoman landed on her feet and in a fury, she unsheathed both her swords and ran to Virgo but Aang landed in front of her and made an earth wave that forced her back and she fell to her back.

She got up and saw she ran towards them and jumped over Aang and tried to slice Virgo but she missed as Virgo backed away and she jabbed her blades into the ground and she threw numerous jabs at Virgo's upper body and she felt stiff and fell to the ground.

"Wait… you're a Chi-blocker? Like that Ty Lee girl?" Aang asked

"Where do you that fool learned it from?"

"Aang I can't move! I have performed poorly in this battle I…"

"Don't worry, I figured out on how to defeat her!" Aang spread his arms to the side and he dropped the ground and suddenly his entire body was sucked in by the earth.

"You cannot hide forever!"

"Who said I was hiding!" Aang exclaimed and he jumped out of the ground and he was encased in a rock suit and stood behind Ping. "That's right, no way you can Chi Block me through rock, and all of your weapons will be useless.

"Hehe, almost all of them!" she threw her four stilettos at Aang and he quickly realized what she was doing. He tried dropping the rocks but they exploded and he flew back and he had some burn marks all over his body and clothes as the rock suit was destroyed. Ping was holding her blades as she walked to Aang. "Any last words Avatar?" she asked. Aang smirked as a shadow appeared over both of them.

"Look behind you." And Ping looked back and saw that the Weretiger was behind her and she roared and she slammed Ping away with her arm and she slammed into a wall and fell down.

"I am clearly outmatched this way." She thought.

"Aang!" Lucy yelled as she held the cub in her arms which looked like a regular tiger cub but bigger. She was dragging a person dressed in black and he has his eyes filled with swirls. "I caught the guy trying to escape with the cub, he was going to sell the little guy. But I stopped him!" the Weretiger glared at Lucy. "I mean we stopped him!" Aang got up and winced a little in pain. "What happened to you?" Lucy asked

"Crazy sword girl, exploding knives, Chi blocker… you don't wanna know."

"And what happened to Virgo?"

"She was Chi Blocked too."

"What is Chi Blocking?" Lucy asked

"I'll tell you later, but at least she's…" Aang looked to where she was punched and he saw that she was gone. "Looks like she escaped."

"I apologize; Princess would you like me to dance for you?" Virgo said as she was still lying on the ground unable to move.

"No, just go home already!" Virgo disappeared in a puff of purple smoke

"But she's Chi Blocked she couldn't dance for you regardless, Lucy." Aang said.

"Here you go." Lucy said handing the cub to the mother.

She held her cub and she outstretched the cub to lick both Lucy and Aang. "I guess that would count as a thank you." Aang guessed. The Weretiger and her cub jumped out of the town from building to building.

Lucy had a smirk on her face. "Now there is the matter of payment…"

"Fat chance! Yes you got rid of the Weretiger but look at the damage you and your sword friend did to my town! You're lucky I'm even paying you at all, but since you did I feel obligated to do so!" he handed them the reward in a bag and Lucy took a look at it.

"HEY! This is half the amount you would pay us!"

"It's going to cost a lot to fix the damage that you guild members did to my town. I'm guessing that half the reward for not killing it and damaging my town is enough."

Aang closed his eyes. "Forget it Lucy, he's not worth trying to haggle. Let's just take what we have and get back to the guild." Aang said.

"Yeah, sure."

They were now at Helix station where they were going to take a train that would take them back to Magnolia. They both got a train and they both tiredly placed their bodies on the seats.

"Today was tiring."

"Yeah, you're telling me… Hey I've been thinking, since we only got half the reward, how about you take the reward instead of us splitting it." Aang suggested

"Why? Aang, you did most of the work especially against those guys that were trying to kill us."

"It doesn't matter, you need it a lot more than I do. You can pay off your rent and have some left over."

"Thanks a lot Aang, how will I be able to repay you?"

"Well… no never mind."

"No, tell me what is it?"

"I was thinking that you would help me find a place to live, I can't keep sleeping in the guild forever and since you know your way around."

"I can help you but unless you have a lot of money you won't be able to live in the city, my apartment was the best option I could find and you can see I have some trouble paying for it."

"That's alright; I'm used to sleeping under the stars. It's how I had to normally live during the hundred year war. Don't worry I'll find a camp site out in the forests somewhere."

"Aang. Can you tell me about… everything. Like why did you have to fight the Fire Lord, and how you are the last Airbender in your world."

"You want to know everything? Hmm, well… where do I begin?"

"The beginning would be a good place to start."

"This will be a long story, trust me. But since you insist… It started just before I found out I was the Avatar…"


Next Time: Hundred and One Year War

Katara arrives at Fairy Tail only to discover that Aang and Toph has gone with Team Natsu on a job, as she waits she gets acquainted with the other wizards of Fairy Tail, but they are soon attacked by Ping and her team of Benders.
