Yay! Yay! Yay! Chap-ter-THREE! Haha, I would like to thank everyone who read and reviewed, along with my mom, who saved my ass for one of the Dragons. And it's WAY harder to get Zuko off that damn ship then I thought
Mallaidh- thank you! One of my first reviewers!
Arekisu- Yay! A fave? Yay!
Nikki Satoshi- hmm, your name sounds familiar…. Oh well. I tried using italics, but it didn't work. I'll try next time.
CHAPTER THREE- Yugasa, The Water Dragon
The prince had been pacing the room for almost half an hour, stopping a few times to say something, but seemed to have lost the ability to talk.
"You-" he tried, but just started walking again.
"I?" Tsuyosa asked calmly. Honestly, she found this quite funny, mortals were hilarious sometimes.
"Why are you-"
"Avatar- help. You- throne. Peace- world." She answered without hearing the question.
Mortals were also stupid sometimes.
Zuko, head spinning, finally sat down next to the dragon.
"You're asking me to OVERTHROW my FATHER. Do have any idea how close I was to him KILLING me!" Tsuyosa smiled, throwing her arm over the prince's shoulder, which he immediately shook off.
"Touchy. Anyway, I'm not asking YOU ALONE to overthrow your dad. Like you said, he almost killed you once. I'm going to help you!" Somehow, that didn't make him feel better.
"Why did the crazy dragon have to help me?" he asked the wall. He was answered by a conk on the head.
"Just because it's true doesn't mean you have to say it. But you don't have to worry, I have a plan." Zuko looked skeptical.
"First, we need to find the Avatar!" his face fell.
"If I knew that, I'd already be back home." He was growing to hate that grin.
"You just haven't been able to capture him. We're going to TALK to him. Face it, without the Avatar, we're screwed." Zuko glared. Tsuyosa sighed.
"He also has my sister dragon with him. We'll need her, to." This time his eyes widened.
"He has a Dragon with him? I've never seen her." You would think he could see a Dragon Goddess. What he could see, though, was the sudden anger and sadness on this dragons face.
"Yugasa, she doesn't know she's a dragon."
"How could you forget?"
"Because, she broke the rule: she fell in love."
"Tsuyosa, I have something to tell you" the water dragon whispered. Tsuyosa looked strangely at her. Yugasa didn't normally seem so insecure.
"Yugasa, what happened?" the girl looked close to tears.
"I'm not going back." The red dragon was shocked.
"Not going back! Yugasa, we have to go back! We have sixteen years until the Avatar will awaken! We have to regain our strength!" Yugasa shook her head, smiling. Tsuyosa finally understood.
"I told you not to get attached to that man, Yugasa. You know what will happen to him, to you…"
"If his fate is set, I will stay with him until it comes to past. Tsuyosa, I love this man. As weak and strange as it is, I don't want to see him die alone!" Tsuyosa sighed, the only other dragon as hard-headed as her. There was no way to change her mind now.
"Just, please be careful."
"Yugasa! Yugasa!" Tsuyosa flew across the icy grounds, a mere breeze to the humans.
"Yugasa! Please don't! Please don't!" there, being held by a small boy, was the Dragon of Water, covered in blood.
"Momma! Momma!" the boy yelled. Nearby, a small girl cried along with her brother.
"Sokka! Sokka, what happened to Momma!" she choked.
"Yugasa!" A man yelled, running over to his fallen wife.
"What a pitiful way to die." Tsuyosa looked up at the Firebender, anger filling her eyes.
'This man. This man has dirtied the honor of the Fire Nation!'
"You'll pay for this!" she and the man yelled in unison.
"Tsuyosa…" the dragon turned. Facing her was Yugasa. Her spirit, at least.
"Tsuyosa, this is my fault. And the Avatar is only a few years away…" Tsuyosa was speechless. Her friend had died protecting her children, and she was mad at herself?
"Yugasa, this is not your fault…"
"I won't let you and Chikara fight alone. Tsuyosa, please," She looked sadly at her children, still weeping over their mother, "Please keep them safe." A light glowed deep inside the Yugasa's chest, the absolute heart of the dragon. Slowly, she flew towards her daughter, causing a spiritual aura to engulf the child. And as the aura faded, the girl fell back; her family thinking the blood was too much.
But Tsuyosa understood. There was a new Water Dragon, in the form of a small girl the Goddess fondly called Katara.
A/N- BWAHAHAHA!This has to be thecheesist plot EVER!AndI turned Katara into a Goddess!I just need to create one more Dragon and that'll be all I have to worry about! I'm sorry this is so short, I'll try to make the next one longer.
Side notes- the Dragons names all mean something, so here they are-
Tsuyosa- Strength (I should've given this to Earth, but that dragon didn't exist when I named her)
Yugasa- Grace (this one speaks for itself)
Chikara- Power (yeah, this was to replace the whole "strength" thing. It means the same, pretty much. This is the Earth Dragon)
