Fantasy
Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar. I own Kaori and any Oc's. Yes that sounds about right. Also, -- I went braindead on the Kumi one. SORRY!
Zuko sat in his room as Fire Goddess Kaori was being tended too. High mantnence. He was just lucky she didn't ban him from the fire nation. His uncle Iroh joined him with a big book about the Fire Goddess, and left without a word. Zuko flipped through the pages, and read about her..
Apparently, The fire goddess founded the Fire nation because where she lived, she was considerd a slut and unworthy of the royal family she was born into. She wore reveiling clothes to be admired by the boys, and envied by the wemon. But instead, she was admired by the men, and hated by the wemon. So she had every woman who dishonored her, burnt alive at the stake. She had a large ego and had to be the top of everything; She had to be the most beautiful, the highest in the social ladder, and the most adored woman. After 20 years of ruleling the fire nation, without any family to speak of; The fire goddess was assasinated in her sleep. Ever sence then she has searched for a new host. There have been 20 cases of insanity, suicide attempts, murders,and possessions. One for each year of her ruleling. The cases have all had something in common, they all had family members who loved them dearly, and all happend from birth. She would possess a body, and controle it to do her bidding. Making sure that misory and woe eat the earth.If someone loves her host (special friend, family members, ect.) then the host must suffer. She was never loved when she was alive; even by her admiring men. So she has to make sure no one else is ever loved. Each case ended up dead.
That hit Zuko's heart, could Kaori die from this? How could someone be so cruel? With a growel, Zuko slammed the book shut and marched to the throne room. The fire goddess was still sitting on her ass on the throne, Throwing fire balls at her followers for amusement. He stomped upto Dark Kaori (AKA The fire goddess) and demanded she let Kaori go!
"Sorry." She told him, even though she wasn't that sorry. "She is where you can't save her." For a moment, she became regular Kaori again, she ran down to Zuko and he gave her a hug. A tight, loving hug. A hug like he had never given her before.
"Zuko...Im so sorry...I love you too..." She put her hand to his cheek and brought his lips down to her's. They kissed. Something Zuko had been wanting to do for so long sence he fell for Kaori; too bad it couldn't be like this forever. He looked into her eyes, and they were pure red. Which ment she was still half possessed. He gave her another hug. She put her hand on his cheek, and he could feel the heat from her Fire Goddess self.
"Don't leave me again Kaori..." He cried with his arms tightly griped around her,tears running down his face, they hit her hand and became steam. She gave him one more kiss.
"Im sorry...I have to...She is stronger than me now...I can only come out for this few seconds." She took her hand away from him and slipped out of his grasp. Like she had so many times before. Kaori became Dark Kaori once again, and sat back on her throne. He couldn't believe that the girl he fell for was going to really die this time. How could he bare it...?He wouldn't let that happen!
"Dark Kaori, I challenge you!" Zuko growled, Dark Kaori mearly gave him a 'yeah right, like you can really have a chance against me!' look. She hopped off the throne and threw a fire phenox at him, He rememberd that she had done the exact same thing to his father, where the fire phenox was just a distraction from the fire snake; everyone would watch the phenox and never think twice about the snake, So, instead of blocking it; he knelt down and the phenox flew above him and the snake flew the opposite way. That seemed way too easy! He had to defete Dark Kaori some how, but he would need allies. He fled to his ship, calling for his uncle. Iroh followed, hateing to leave Kaori in such a situation by herself; but he knew Zuko had a plan.
They got out to sea, searching yet again for the avatar. Aang and the others were found camping out on a near by island, just outside the fire nation. Zuko landed and they fled, but he told them to stop.
"I didn't come to capture you! I need the avatar's help." Zuko hissed. They stopped, Zuko needed Aang's help? "As a matter of fact, I need all of your help. Let me explain..." And he did so. He explained Dark Kaori; the fire goddess, how Dark Kaori took over Kaori's regular body and has taken throne to the fire nation. They all lisoned attintivly; trying as Zuko explained, to comprehend what he was saying. "I need one person from all of the Elements to help; Avatar is air and Water tribe girl is water, Im fire so that only leaves-" But Katara finished.
"Haru!" She exclaimed. "He is an earthbender!" They all looked at her and nodded in agreement. Zuko orderd that they go find this 'Haru' person, and meet him back at the Fire Nation Palace. They knew that Zuko had something planned; so they got on appa and flew back to where Haru lived. Zuko however; had another person in mind to help.
"Set a Course for Kyoshi!" Zuko orderd, His crew obayed without question and set a course for Kyoshi.
Sorry for the shortness; but I wanted to both spread out the chapters and to create suspence. Also, if the time frames between islands Isn't logical, please just go along with it; I don't want to break my head with physical junk.
