Here's chapter 2. I wrote it after seeing a review from it so I was like YAY. It inspired mebecause my muse left me (sigh). Um now I do not know where to go. I wasn't planning on putting this story on fanfic let alone continue it after the first chapter, but here you go.

It's much longer than the first chapter so it makes me happy. I hope you enjoy it and tell me where to go after this.


The fire bender ran towards me with unexpected speed calling out a war cry. I was ready for the attack and pulled energy into a ball under me. I focused on going up, and the air ball shoot upwards with me on top. The fire bender ran into nothing but air. He stumbled and cursed wildly for forgetting that I was a skilled air bender.

"Come down here and fight like a real warrior, Avatar!" The fire bender looked up and watched me fly around provocatively. "Did you hear me, Avatar? I said 'GET DOWN HERE?'"

The fire bender slashed his hand through the air causing a sword like flame to fly through the air. It hit my chest squarely. I fell off my energy ball thirty feet in the air and landed on my back with a loud thud.

I gave a grunt and rolled over to sit up. "Fine no more games, fire bender. What is your name anyways?" I wasn't sure if the fire bender would answer me or not, but I only wanted to buy more time to replenish my straining lungs.

"Oh, I forgot. You do not know my name." He smirked and continued to stare at me with a piercing stare. "My name is Prince Zuko. I am surprised that you do not know me, but that is beside the point. I am here to finish you off, Avatar. Now, lets fi—"

"Hold on fire bender. I want you to know my name too before we start fighting again so that you can stop calling me the Avatar because I really don't think of myself like that."

"I know your name. I just choose not to use it, Aang."

"Ok well let's getting it started then."

I had built up enough energy to fight Prince Zuko off. My eyes burned ice blue, and the dust lying on the earth rose and spun around me in a dome. I rose into the air and the ground below Prince Zuko's feet began to quake and churn.

My mind went blank as the feeling of power rose up in my chest, and I was lost in the moment of no pain and no worry. A voice rose up and dominated my conscious. It told me to kill, to kill all that were a danger to the harmony of the nations. It told me that the fire benders were the enemies. They needed to die. The ones that rose up against the other nations needed to die. Kill. Kill.

"You cannot scare me with your flimsy earth bending tricks, Avatar." The prince roared above the noise of the wind, and he slashed both his hands in the air forming a fiery 'X'. The fire shot up at me, but vanished when it reached the dusty dome.

I had created a force field and now that I came out of my thoughts I realized what I had to do. I looked down at the pitiful prince and realized that he did not even have a chance. He was useless to the Fire Nation. They did not need him; they only had him because he was a prince. He did not even want to kill the Avatar. He only wanted to make his father proud.

"You don't have to do this Prince Zuko. I know why you are. You just want to have your father except you, but you have set out on an impossible journey. You cannot defeat me. I am the Avatar. I have been made to keep peace and harmony between the forces. I will not kill you so leave. Leave before you make a mistake and ask for your fathers acceptance."

Anger boiled up inside the fire bender. "YOU CANNOT AND WILL NOT TELL ME WHAT TO DO, AVATAR!" With that he evaporated from sight and reformed behind the Avatar. I was not expecting such power and was caught off guard. Prince Zuko kicked me with such force that I flew forty feet in the air before slamming into the ground. I jumped back up and grabbed my stick to fight just as the Zuko sent another fire X at me. I spun my stick and repelled it off.

"Fine Prince, I will kill you if you want to die a noble death, but don't say I did not warn you." I formed a fireball in my palm and pushed it towards the fire bender who avoided it easily.

"You are only good at air bending, Avatar. You are weak everywhere else. You are a disgrace in your ancestor's eyes!"

This hit a soft spot in my heart. Once again I lost control, and the power pulsed through my ears. My eyes glowed cold, and the voice returned stronger than the last. Kill. Kill. My hands rose in the air, and rock uprooted from the ground. I whisper, "forward," and the rocks disappeared because of such speed. They reappeared in front of the prince, but it was too late for him. He was grounded into the ground to at least ten feet deep.

"I warned you Prince…" I said as I walked down into the ditch I made by my bending.

"You should know by know, Avatar, that I am stubborn and do not give up easily."

"So I have noticed, but I will not hit a down warrior."

"You're too kind, Avatar." The Prince gave a brief smile before standing up. "You shouldn't give me a chance. Now I just want to kill you more."

"I figured you wouldn't change." I gave him a chance to get up. I turned my back on him purposefully leaving myself vulnerable for him to attack, but none came. When I finally got out of the ditch, I turned to see the prince stare up at me.

"You're too noble, Avatar. You're too noble for me." He paused to think of what to say next, and I allowed him. "I will return. You might have won the battle, but you have not won the war. In the end, the fire benders with conquer the other nations. Avatar or no avatar, we will win."

With that he turned his back on me and walked away to his battle ship. As he flew away I shook my head in amusement. 'Damn, he's stubborn,' is all I thought before I pick my stick up from where I left it, and I opened it to fly away back to Appa, Momo, and Katara.
