When the group arrived at the lake they were very tired and in bad spirits already. Finding Cole paralyzed on the ground with Kai nowhere in sight didn't help. Once Appa landed Katara jumps off first to help him up. He couldn't move his body but he could still talk. "What happened!? Where's Kai?" Nya calls out. "Azula happened she threatened my life if Kai didn't go with her," Cole explains to them. Zuko growls as Zane scans Cole's body. "You should retain control of you body in a few minutes," Zane informs. "Which way did they go and how long ago?" Sokka asks. "They left five minutes ago in one of those hot air ballon blimp thingies," Cole answers as everyone helped him up on Appa. "Why would she take him? Usually she would just kill him," Sokka asks getting glances from the other worried ninja. "Not helping," Jay said. "She tried, but when we had the upper hand after trying to burn Kai she figured out he was the one who took down that troop of fire benders," Cole explains to them. Zuko's eyes widened as he realized what Azula must want with Kai.

"My sister has always strived to be the best firebender in history. She's mastered all fire bending arts except two. Lightning redirection and practically everything Kai has taught us. Kai is more skilled than her and she realizes it but not how much. She wants him to teach her all fire bending techniques or die." Zuko explains to all of them. They nodded along since from what they just saw meeting her it did sound likely. "Okay here's the plan. Since Cole is no longer in danger knowing Kai he's going to do two things. One he's going to break out in a way that will completely humiliate Azula or two he's going to get some information then break out. Either way I give him week." Nya explains. Team avatar look at each other unsure. "Azula's pretty deadly you sure he's going to be okay?" Katara asks. "Yep," They all answer. As if on cue Kai's com turns on and they hear voices through it. The ninja all turned there coms up loud enough for team avatar to hear as they listened in to the voices.

"So are you going to kill me or bore me to death? Because I'm closer to the second one," Kai's voice was heard. "I THOUGHT I ORDERED SOMEONE TO PUT A GAG ON HIM!" Azula's voice yells through the coms making everyone flinch. "Stop making it of flammable material and I will stop," Kai said. "Oh that is it! Next time you speak I'm pushing you in lava!" Azula yells and the ninja hear Kai holding in snickers. "You are going to teach me everything you know about fire bending or so else I'll have your friend killed. I have him in the other cell." Azula said clearly lying but sounded so convincing some of the people listening poked Cole to make sure he was there. "Your lying he's not here he's with the avatar. If your gonna ly make it something I can't see through." Kai said a slight harsh tone to it. It's quiet for a moment before Azula speaks. "You can do more than your letting on. What is it?" Azula asks but Kai stays silent either to annoy her or so he wouldn't accidentally reveal anything. "I'll be back," Azula said before storming off and closing a cell door.

"So guys should I bust out or not?" Kai asks them through the com. "Where are you?" Sokka asks. "More importantly stop making the people who have you hostage mad," Cole reprimands. "Well you know I can't do that also I'm in a cell and I'm not sure where because they blindfolded me," Kai explains to them. "I have a idea that could get you out and humiliate the fire lord," Sokka said with a mischievous smile. "What's the point in humiliating the fire lord?" Jay asks. "If Kai gets a audience with him and make him show off his fire bending skills then use his own skills that only he is capable of then it will be total humiliation." Sokka explains to them. "And he would loose his respect and honour making a government disorder as the fire nation his built on honour. My father will begin to crumble and then Aang can face him before Sozin's comet," Zuko said catching on. "Yeah but I'm not gonna actually fight him right? That's Aang's destiny not mine," Kai said having learned from the whole green ninja prophecy. "Yeah but after the humiliation the fire lord won't wait till Sozin's comet he will want to battle the avatar to regain his honour." Sokka explains to the group who nodded along. "So he won't be prepared and unfocused," Aang said catching on. "Great where should I meet you guys when it's over?" Kai asks. "Meet us at Ember island. I know a place we can stay that father will never look at," Zuko said. "And Kai be careful," Cole adds. "Don't worry boulder Brain I'll be careful," Kai assures him with a small chuckle. "Who are you talking to?" A unknown voice from outside the cell asked. "Myself it's how I cope in these situations," Kai answers quickly. "Oh and tell the princess I agree to teach her only if she holds up her end of the a deal," Kai adds. "Sokka if this plan doesn't work I'm going to bury you," Cole threatens. "Right after I drown you in mud," Nya adds. Sokka gulps and nodded his head.

Kai's POV

After the guard left to get Azula it was just a matter of waiting for her to come back. When she did her face showed no emotion whatsoever. "What's this deal you want?" Azula asks. "I want the fire lord himself to show me what he can do. If I'm gonna teach the daughter I want to know if the father is actually competent enough. Most of my moves are fairly simple if his stories haven't been exadurated he should be able to copy everything I do," Kai explains to her and she smirks slightly. "Very well then come with me," she orders as Kai is lifted out of his cell by two guards his hands still chained behind his back. He can still hear the other ninja and team avatar listening in.

He goes through several hallways with tapestries with Azula having her head held high the whole time. Eventually he reaches a room with a small wall of fire in front of a throne with the fire lord himself sitting there with several generals sitting at a table watching as they enter. When they enter Azula bows before her father and so do the guards Kai stays standing till the guards pulled him down into a kneeling position. The fire lord narrows his eyes at the sight of them before Azula looks up and speaks to him.

"My lord this is the fire bender who claims to be the very master of fire better than even the dragons," Azula told her father and her father looks at Kai. "He is a mere peasant still a child what could he possibly do?" Ozai asks. Before Azula could answer Kai does it for her. "If I am a mere child who cannot do as you say then how about we do a demonstration? I am sure a peasant couldn't come close to your raw talent," Kai said. The fire lord smirks. "If it's a challenge of skill you want than that's what you shall receive," Ozai said standing up.

Five minutes later Kai is standing in a large room with several generals, nobleman and woman, guards, and Azula. The fire lord was on the other side of a long display arena. Kai looks up and saw a open window. If he used airjitzu he would be able to escape easily. "So what should I start with?" Kai asks outloud making it look like he was talking to himself when he was actually talking to Zuko. "Start with that basic move I taught you but make the fire a different colour everytime and don't use blue," Zuko tells him. "Okay then. HEY OZAI CAN YOU DO THIS?" Kai shouts at Ozai who scolds deeply in response at not being properly addressed.

Kai then does a basic round house kick and blast, but his fire was green during the kick and purple during the blast. Everyone except Azula and Ozai gasped. Ozai sees he's quickly loosing the crowd and makes a false move. He makes a tornado of fire in the air before dissipating it. It was a very difficult move so it used his strength up quite quickly, but the only show of it was a deep breath. "Let's see if a peasant with a light show can top that," Ozai challenges. "Geeze I can't do that specific move. It's just too easy it would be a waste of our time. How about I up it a notch?" Kai asks loving the anger flashing in both Ozai and Azula's eyes. He also loved hearing team Avatar laughing their heads off in his ear piece it made him smile. He jumps into spinjitzu a tornado of fire covering him from head to toe. He spins over to two of the guards and beats them up using spinjitzu before throwing them to the wall very bruised but no burns. When he stopped he wasn't even dizzy in the slightest without a Scorch mark anywhere in sight.

Kai flashes Ozai a loser sign and fire came out through Ozai's nostrils. Ozai breathes fire at Kai who doesn't even flinched as it hit him engulphing the fire ninja. Just for the fun of it he pretended to cry out in pain and Ozai just kept going till he was out of breath. When the fire was gone Kai was still standing not a burn or a singe mark on him and he faked a yawn just for the fun of it. "So are we done yet? Cause I got places to be and this is barely a challenge at this point." Kai states crossing his hands and raising a eyebrow. "How? No fire bender is fire proof," a general asks daring to speak. "That's because I'm the master, I'm better than the dragons and better than your whole army so don't mess with me." Kai states and the crowd begins whispering making Ozai loose his patience.

"GUARDS EXCUTE THIS BOY FOR SPEAKING THAT WAY TO ME!" Ozai screeches pointing to Kai. "Guessing that's my cue to leave," Kai said as guards surrounded him.

Kai jumps back into spinjitzu taking out the guards with ease before breaking it and doing a quick back flip over the fire lord before knocking him to the ground. He then launched into airjitzu and went up to the window climbing through it. "Good show and good night," Kai calls down to them loving the shocked faces of literally everyone in the room. he runs from the place finding himself at what must be a palace. Lucky for him it was night so he summons his dragon and took off for Ember island under the cover of dark. "Hey guys I'm out and I have a feeling I did my job," Kai said into the com. "Great job!" "Yes!" "Lets stop this war!" "Ever do that again and I'll bury you," was Cole's last phrase and Kai chuckles. "Don't worry I am totally fine see you there," Kai said than hung up on them as he flew away.

Back in the palace

Ozai was silently fuming barely containing his fire as he saw the whispers of his court. Azula grins and steps up on stage and immediately everyone goes quiet. "I know we are all thinking the same thing. If this random stranger can best Ozai than he should not be allowed to rule. He has no more honour," Azula said making it sound like she was explaining 11=2 to a bunch of teenagers. The court murmured in agreement. "So why not have someone worthy who has honour take the throne? I proclaim today marks the end of Ozai and the crowning of FIRE LORD AZULA!" Azula proclaims and the court cheers chanting the name. Ozai is held back by his own guards as he glares daggers at his daughter as he's taken away to the very cell he kept his brother in. "This is going to be fun," Azula whispers to herself as the chanting continues.

The prophecy said Aang was facing a fire lord it never specifically said Ozai
