Chapter 24
"COME ON YOU FUCKING PUSSIES, YOU WANT TO BE US NAVY SEALS? FUCKING PROVE IT" Frank Castle bellowed as he looked at the group he was training.
Jacob grunted in exhaustion as he kept running. He was in the middle of the group of fifteen as he kept running. Two weeks ago there were thirty but with the training half washed out. He thought of Lex, when he got back from training he was going to be with her for a while. She was his driving force behind doing what he did. He looked as Castle ran beside the group.
This is the second lap that they've done around the island they were training on. Finally the lap was finished and Jacob dropped to his knees breathing deeply. He looked around as some others were laying down to catch their breath.
"A HUNDRED SIT UPS NOW" Frank bellowed making the recruits look at one another.
Jacob started doing sit ups but as he was he felt like his abs were on fire. He took a few seconds to rest in between some of his sit ups. This however did not go unnoticed by Frank.
"What the fuck is this Jacob? I know you ain't trying to rest. I knew a football star couldn't cut it as a SEAL" Frank said looking at him when suddenly he kicked Jacob in the side.
"I can make it sir, I never learned how to quit" Jacob said looking up at him as he ignored the kick and kept doing sit ups.
"No you can't, you're weak you'll just end up washing out like all the others" Frank snarled getting into Jacob's face.
"No sir I won't" Jacob said starting to get mad. "No one tells me I can't do it."
"I'm telling you, you can't do it" Frank said looking at him. "What are you going to do about it?"
"What's the record sir for staying in the water sir?" Jacob ask looking at him.
"Six hours" Frank replied looking at him.
Jacob jumped up and looked at him. He was as tall as Frank and so he was looking him in the eyes. He started to strip down until he was in his boxers. He looked back at Frank who was looking at him. "I'll beat it by two" Jacob said before running down to the water. He walked in until he was knee deep. He sat down and stared out across the ocean before him.
Six hours passed and Jacob was still sitting in the water. His lips were blue and quaking from him being cold. His whole body was shaking for he was in the early stages of hypothermia. He was weak, the fifty degree water was sucking all the heat from his body making it hard for him to breath.
"Kid you've tied the record, maybe it's time to get out of the water?" Frank questioned from behind.
"No sir" Jacob replied through chattering teeth.
Two more hours went by and Jacob was fully hypothermic. He was shivering violently as he sat there in the water. He was focused on Lex as he sat there in the water
"Congratulations Kid, you've done it" Frank said from behind him making him glance back before slowly standing up.
"Thank you sir" he replied looking at him. Suddenly Jacob fell forward, passing out from pure exhaustion. Frank caught him just before he fell into the water. He looked at Jacob before he called for the medics.
Two hours later Jacob's eyes fluttered a bit and opened. He found himself wrapped up in a thermal heating blanket. He looked over to see Frank looking down at him. He moaned softly as he tried to sit up, only for Frank to place his hand on his shoulder stopping him.
"You've earned my respect Kid. You did something that's hard to do. Why did you do it?" He questioned looking at Jacob.
"Because I don't give up sir. That and no one tells me how it's going to be" Jacob said looking back to him.
"Well Kid I'm impressed, why did you join the Navy? Better yet why did you want to be a SEAL?" Frank asked as he crossed his arms.
"To make a difference sir... I will make a difference" Jacob replied as he felt the warmth return to his body.
"I know you will, and if we get more soldiers like you then this world will definitely start to see a change" Frank said patting Jacob's shoulder before walking away. He stopped and looked back at Jacob. "I expect to see you back in line in a few days" he said before walking out of the room.
"Yes sir" Jacob replied as he laid his head back down.

Jacob remembered his training as he stared at the muzzle of his own pistol. Juri was smiling with evil intent as she looked down at him. His mind flashed, seeing Lex again. Suddenly in a flash his free hand shot forth from his belt. In his hand was a knife, as to which he stabbed it into her calf muscle.
Her head snapped back screaming in pain as she stepped back. She reached down and pulled the knife out of her leg. Her head lifted back up to see him rising back to his feet. Jacob had a glare on his face as he stared at her. Sudden his fist shot out and he continued to keep jabbing at her. With each strike the blows landed with thunderous impacts.
Her head was snapping back but with each strike it made her think. He had a suddenly burst of energy and this time it seemed like he was being driven by anger. She dropped his gun as he was moving to fast to shoot. She tried a counter attack but he just caught her leg. Once he did he smiled at her as he picked her up and slammed her into the ground.
The impact made her bounce across the ground. She growled in pain and rolled over to see him advancing towards her. She staggered back to her feet before suddenly he kicked her in the chest. She staggered backwards and he was on her his hand wrapped around her throat. He squeezed it tighter as he looked into her eyes.
"This is why I'm stronger, I don't give up. I have someone I love waiting for me. Love is the greatest weapon ever" he growled looking into her eyes. Suddenly he let her go. As soon as he did he jumped up and kicked her in the chest sending her flying through the air. He looked as she slammed into a pillar. She crashed to the ground unconscious.
He looked down at her before giving her one more swift kick for good measure. He turned and looked to see Kim huddled over Shego's body protecting her. He prepared to run to her aid when suddenly a lightening bolt slammed into the ground in front of him. It blew him back making him growl as he slammed into the ground. Looking up he watched as Azula kept cackling as she threw more fireballs. As long as she was still going they were in trouble.

(Air Ship Fleet)
Sokka landed on the top of a zeppelin. Looking up it was raining metal down on them. Instinct kicked in and so he jumped over and covered Toph with his body shielding her. Once the metal stopped falling they both got up and turned towards the tail of the zeppelin. They ran up to it and he turned to her.
"Toph metal bend the rudder so it's jammed in the turning position" he said looking at her.
She moved up, pushing him out of the way. Her hands shot up and she grabbed the rudder. She began to pull at it bending the metal until it was stuck in a turning position. The air ship turned and slammed into the last undamaged air ship still burning the land.
"Have I mentioned how sweet it is you invented metal bending?" Sokka asked with a smile as he looked to her.
"You can stand to mention it more often" she said with a chuckle as she turned her head to him.
A hatch opened behind them making them look back. They looked to see a fire bender pop out of the hatch. He looked at them as they started to run. As they were running the fire bender punched a fire wave at them. They jumped off the side of the air ship. Acting quickly he stabbed the sword into the side of the air ship. They slid down until they were halfway down. They then free fell until they slammed into a platform.
"MY LEG" Sokka shouted as he felt the bone break. He looked back down to Toph who was gripping his hand. "Hang on Toph" he said to her.
"Aye aye captain" she said to him.
He looked up to see two fire benders run out onto their platforms. They looked at them as they prepared to kill them. Acting quickly Sokka grabbed his boomerang and threw it at the first one. The weapon impacted the first one in his head knocking him down. Kicking his foot up he kicked his sword up. He caught it and threw it at the other platform. He watched the sword cut through the platform and plummet to the ground below.
"Bye space sword" he called to the blade. Looking back up he saw a line of fire benders come running up. He felt Toph start to slip from his hand. He glanced back at her. "Well Toph, this is it. I don't think boomerang is coming back" he grunted. Suddenly the fire benders gasped in fright before running away. He looked at them confused before the answer came quickly. It came in the form of a damaged air ship crashing into the one they were on. They fell onto the ship and looked up at the first one they were just on.
"What happened, did boomerang come back?" Toph asked making Sokka look.
"No, Suki did" he said with a large smile to see his girlfriend still alive. She was controlling the rudder of the air ship making it slam into the one they were on.

"COME ON OUT AVATAR, YOU CAN'T HIDE IN THERE FOREVER" Ozai yelled as he kept burning the rock ball that Aang was in.
Ozai jumped back and threw two fireballs at it causing it to jump into the air. Throwing another it pushed the ball into a structure. Looking at it he smiled as he ran up still throwing fireballs at it. He placed his hand over it and started to to launch a wave of fire onto the ball. Jumping back he charged a pure ball of fire in his hand. He ran forward and slammed it into the stone ball. The explosion destroyed it and sent Aang flying back.
Aang slammed into the rock wall, more importantly into a jutting out rock. That in turn unlocked his seventh chackra. His eyes shot wide as he felt it, his Avatar State had returned. The rocks collapsed onto him burying him.
"Come on out little boy" Ozai chuckled as he walked up to the pile of stones.
Suddenly a hand shot up and grabbed his beard. He looked to see Aang's tattoos were glowing. He looked as suddenly Aang shot up out of the rocks glowing. They looked at one another as Ozai tried to attack only for Aang to deflect it. In a flash Aang threw his hand out blowing Ozai back. Ozai was sent flying back before slamming into a rock structure.
Looking up he yelled out in fear as Aang bended all the elements. Aang than began to chase him through the rock structures. He was flying away quickly but Aang was chasing him. Suddenly a water tendril wrapped around him. He yelled loudly as he was slammed into the top of one of the structures. Suddenly rocks were wrapped around his hands and feet.
"FIRE LORD OZAI, YOU AND YOUR FOREFATHERS HAVE UPSET THE BALANCE OF THE WORLD. FOR THAT YOU SHALL PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE" Aang roared in a voice that was over laid in multiple voices. The voices of the avatar's before him.
Ozai looked up as Aang's hand raised up. As it did a swirling line of fire, earth, air, and water shot up behind him. It hooked around and stopped for a bit before suddenly it shot down at Ozai. Closing his eyes and turning his head away he prepared for his death.
Suddenly Aang's hand stopped glowing. The flames and air went away as the water and rocks fell around Ozai. He slowly lowered back to the rock structure his back to Ozai. "No, I'm not going to end it like this" he said, his eyes closed.
"Even with all the power in the world, you are still weak" Ozai growled from behind him.
Aang felt the attack coming, Toph's training kicked in. He ducked to the right dodging the attack. His leg kicked up trapping Ozai's hand in a rock. Spinning around behind Ozai he blocked the next attack capturing Ozai's other hand. As he moved around in front of him he looked at him. He pushed his hands down trapping Ozai. He in turn breathed fire out at Aang.
Using a powerful gust of air Aang blew the flames away. He made it up to Ozai and placed a thumb on his head and one on his chest. He started to concentrate before his head snapped back and his eyes glowed brightly. Ozai's eyes started to glow as well before his whole body started glow red. Aang was glowing blue before he started to take in the red glow. It moved up his body until it reached his eyes.
Suddenly his head shot down and a blue glow overtook them both. A solid blue beam shot into the sky as they separated from one another. Ozai sat up groaning as he punched his fist at Aang, only for nothing happened. He tried again and once more nothing happened. Falling back he looked up to see Aang standing over him.
"What, what did you do to me?" He questioned the young air bender.
"I took your bending away. You can't use it to hurt anyone anymore" Aang said looking at him.
Turning around he glowed quickly before raising his hands bringing the water up. He flooded everything with the water putting the flames out. He turned and looked as an air ship landed. Out walked Suki, Toph, and Sokka. He ran over and hugged them before his attention turned to Toph. Suddenly he kissed her making her eyes shoot wide before she started to kiss him back. The war was over and now they had each other.

(Ba-Sing-Se)
Iroh looked at the last tank as a massive fireball shot from his hand. He made it flip through the air and crash into a building. Walking up the steps he looked as the Fire Nation flag hung down from the palace. Some flames grew on his fingers before throwing it at the flag. The flames burned the flag away leaving the Earth Kingdom symbol in place.
"Now the world is free" he said softly as he smiled.

(Fire Nation Capital City)
Katara looked as Zuko still laid on the ground moaning in pain. She looked as Azula was focused on the other fighters. Looking at a fountain her hands moved up sending a wave of water to where Azula was. The water splashed down on the building but she wasn't there. She raised an eyebrow only to hear Azula land behind her.
Looking back she took off running away. Blue flames chased her and she made it to a drain. Looking down she looked to see water rushing through it. Looking up she saw chains dangling from a door. Running forward she grabbed them and turned just as Azula came around a pillar. They stood there looking at one another for a few uneasy seconds. Suddenly Katara threw three water whips at her but she dodged them. Rolling across the ground she came up. Her fingers were pointed ready to end her life with a lightening bolt. Katara however threw her arms up and they were encased in ice.
Azula's eyes moved around looking through the ice before they moved back to Katara. The water bender breathed through her nose melting the ice around herself. She moved through the ice until she wrapped the chains around Azula's wrist. Lowering them both to the grate she immobilized her. Her hands shot down and the water rushed away making them gasp for air. She secured the chains before standing up.
She looked back to see Zuko laying on the ground unmoving. She took off in a dead sprint towards him. She got to his side to see he was still breathing. Rolling him over she looked at the star shape burn in his chest. Pulling water from her water skin she wrapped it around her hands making it glow blue. She placed it over his chest and looked down at him as he gasped for air. She smiled deeply as tears rolled of joy from her eyes. Leaning down she kissed him with passion and love.
"Thank you Katara" he said weakly.
"I think I'm the one who should be thanking you" she said kissing him again.

Shego's eyes opened in a dark room. Looking around she sat up before her attention was caught by something. A white light and at the end of it were her parents. They smiled at her beckoning her to join them. She smiled as she looked at them.
"I wouldn't if I were you" an all to familiar voice said from behind her. Turning she looked to see Drakken standing there looking at her. He smiled as he walked up to her and looked at her. "Shego, the one who never gives up is about to after being hit by a bolt of lightening" he said looking at her.
"Yeah it's a lot worse then you're making it out to be" she shot back at him.
"Can't be much worse than having a xeno explode from your chest" he said with a smirk as he looked at her.
"Good point" she said with a shrug of her shoulders.
"Now you need to go back Juri and Viper are still alive. Kim and Jacob need your help. Go and show them what your made of" he said before smacking her on the forehead.
XX
Shego's eyes shot open and she looked around. Jacob was fighting Juri once more as Kim was facing Viper. Getting back to her feet she turned to Jacob who was kicked away. He bounced across the ground and came to a rest at her feet. He looked at her feet before looking up to her.
"Take a break, I'll handle her" Shego said stepping past him.
She looked at Juri who was staring at her in shock. Suddenly Shego rushed her making the Korean woman back up in fright. In a flash she jumped through the air and punched her across the face. Juri staggered backwards as Shego quickly kicked her back.
Without warning she clawed Juri across the face. This in turn made her scream out in pain and shock. Juri lifted her head back up to look at Shego. In a flash the green skinned woman was in her face. Her trademark smirk graced her face. Without so much of a hint Shego's fist slammed into her jaw in a powerful uppercut. Juri was sent flying through the air. She landed on the ground with a loud thud.
"This time stay down" Shego ordered.

"If I have to kill you to get back to my daughter so be it" Viper growled as she tackled Kim to the ground. While she didn't take pleasure in this she knew she had to do it to protect her child. Her gloved fist came back ready to end Kim as it surged with electricity. Her fist shot forward to end Kim.
Suddenly a gunshot rang out and a bloody hole appeared in her left shoulder. She screamed in pain as she spun around and fell off of Kim. Kim looked at her as she laid there blood beginning to pool around her. Sitting up she looked to see Jacob darting forward pistol in hand and it was leveled on Viper. Walking up he looked at her before turning to Kim and extending a hand to her.
"Thanks" she said looking at him.
"No problem" he said looking at her before rolling Viper over. "I didn't kill you because I know how bad you want to see your daughter. It's over come peacefully and we'll make sure you get home" he said helping her back to her feet, his gun still trained on her.
"Ok" she simply said with a nod.
Kim looked at him and then to Shego as she walked up. When she saw her, her eyes shot wide as she slammed into her hugging her tightly. A lone tear of joy slipped from her eye. She kissed her with passion before she noticed it. Juri was sneaking up behind Shego, a knife in hand. Acting quickly she pushed Shego away. She drew her sword and in a flash she swung it cutting Juri's hand off.
Juri looked on in shock at her hand laying on the ground. Her attention went back to Kim as suddenly the blade was driven into her gut. Her eyes shot wide as she looked into Kim's eyes.
"You deserved this bitch" Kim growled at her as she pulled the blade out of Juri's gut and watched her fall back to the ground. She turned to face Shego and Jacob as she flicked the blade splashing blood across the ground. She sheathed the blade when suddenly they heard cackling. Looking over they saw Azula had gotten free.
"THIS IS MY WORLD, MINE. I'M THE FUCKING FIRE LORD YOU WILL..." she never finished as she started screaming in pain as currents of electricity shot through her body. They looked as she fell to the ground leaving a wounded Viper standing there.
"God that bitch needed to shut up" Viper said before leaning over. She pulled the dimensional controller from her belt. Walking over she looked at Kim as she activated it. The portal opened behind them making them turn and look at it. "Let's go home" Viper said looking at the three of them as she handed the device to Jacob who had an outstretched hand.
Both Viper and Kim walked up to it with Shego right behind them. Jacob stood there remembering something he needed to do. Kim said her goodbyes to Zuko and Katara wishing them the best. She stepped through the portal with Viper. Shego was about to do the same when Jacob grabbed her arm.
"Take this" he said placing a camera in her hands. "You still have the ring?" He asked looking at her.
She looked at him and nodded as she pulled it out of the pocket of her cat suit. "Jacob what's going on?" She asked looking at him.
"Nothing, I'll be right behind you" he said with a soft smile.
"Why don't I believe you?" She asked looking into his eyes.
Green eyes met brown eyes, both looked into the other's as he stared at her. He opened his mouth to speak but just as he did a gunshot rang out and he howled in pain as he felt a bullet carve into his shoulder. Looking back they both looked to see a wounded Juri holding his fallen pistol. The gun was jammed and so she threw it to the wayside. She was moving towards them and so Jacob looked back to Shego.
"Don't say it" she choked out seeing the look in his eyes.
"Goodbye Sherron, I love you" he said before suddenly pushing her into the portal.
"NO JACOB DON'T, DON'T DO THIS, I LOVE YOU" he heard her say as she disappeared into the portal.
Jacob just looked at the portal before turning around. Juri was right behind him and in a flash she kicked him to the right away from the portal. Her attention turned back to the portal before her. She started to walk through it when suddenly Jacob tripped her. Her top half fell into the portal while her lower half was still outside of it. He wrapped his massive arms around her legs and looked to his right. Laying there on the ground was the controller. Reaching to his hip he grabbed his pistol.
Pulling it out he leveled the gun on the device. Pulling the hammer back on the .45 he prepared to fire the gun. A lone tear slipped from his eye as he fired the gun. The bullet found its mark destroying the device. He looked back as the portal began to fluctuate before exploding. It sent him flying through the air making him slam into a pillar. He heard a cracking sound as he fell to his side. Looking to his left he saw the severed lower half of Juri laying nearby.
"I'm sorry Sherron" he whispered as blackness overtook him.

(Go City)
The portal was fluctuating as Kim and Viper came through. They looked around at the warehouse they landed in. Turning around they looked to see Shego as she came out of the portal. She spun around and looked to see the portal still fluctuating. She stared on to see a figure coming through the portal. She could make it out to be Juri.
Her plasma ignited ready to end this thorn in her side once and for all. She looked on as only her top half came out of the portal and landed at her feet. She looked down at the dead woman before looking back up to the portal. Come on Jacob she thought as she stared at the portal. Suddenly it closed making her eyes shoot wide. Her knees quaked as she stared at the emptiness before her. Slowly she fell to her knees as she looked into the empty space.
"JACOB" she screamed into the empty warehouse space as tears filled her eyes.
