K15: Quick A/N. Appa took off in the last chapter. So that's why Zuko and the Water Tribe members survived. Not… anyway. Onto the story!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 13 Any questions? Good.

Zuko couldn't believe it. His babies, his twins, they were gone. He wanted to be the perfect father, and make up for the mistakes that his father had made, proving to the world that he wasn't the same power hungry man. And his chance was gone. Along with his uncle and the Avatar. And it was his entire fault.

Sokka put a hand on the prince's shoulder, acknowledging that he was there for Zuko. Katara covered her mouth and turned away from the explosion. She didn't want to see the remains of her children. It already was already too painful. She turned into Sokka's arms and began to cry.

Momo could sense both their discomforts and did his best to cheer the couple up. Even if that meant by chasing his tail, but neither of them saw or paid attention to the lemur. So in the end Momo just curled up into Zuko's lap, purring, trying to get his attention.

Katara allowed her tears to flow freely. She wanted to blame somebody, but couldn't. It wasn't anyone's fault. She hoped to see her twins grow up, get married, and then die a happy grandmother. She rested her head on Zuko's shoulder, and prayed to any spirit that would listen. She just wanted her children to be alive.

"Katara, Zuko." Sokka said, tapping their shoulders.

"Not now Sokka." Zuko said after a moment of silence.

"ZUKO!"

Zuko glanced up and looked at the Avatar flying above the wreckage of the old ship. In his hands were not only his uncle, but his children as well. The prince momentarily forgot about Katara and Momo, whom were using him as a pillow, and quickly stood up.

"Zuko, what is it?" Katara asked, looking at her banished prince.

"Sokka, make this fluffy bison fly over there!" Zuko shrieked.

Katara raised an eyebrow and looked over at Aang. "AANG!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After they had gotten the four of them onto the back of Appa, there was still something that they had to figure out. What to do from then.

"There's only one thing we can do." Zuko finally said, looking at the rising sun. "We're going to have to go and fight my father."

Kianna let out a little gurgling noise in agreement. Zuko smiled and picked up his daughter. "If we can get my father off the throne, then things will be better, the faster we end this war, the faster we can begin to rebuild the earth."

"Are you alright?" Aang asked. "You've lost both of your older siblings."

"That's alright. Ruko would have had the whole Water Tribe enslaved. And face it, Ember would have to the whole male population enslaved." Zuko said, bouncing Kia on his knee. "It's better to have a different out look on the throne."

"And the curse?"

"We will deal with it when and if it comes." Zuko replied to his uncle's question. "Any other questions?" The trio shook their heads no. "Good, then set a course for the Fire Nation capital."

K15: Okay guys. There is your ending. Don't worry, everyone is alive and healthy. Well except Ruko and Ember.
Zuko: Yeah.

Me: Hush. Let me finish my A/N in peace. Anyway, this ends the second part in Confusing Fire Trilogy. I don't know when the third and final part will be out, but look for it soon. It's called Redemption of Prince. Yeah… that sounds like a good title. It won't be any longer than these two. Maybe five chapters if I'm lucky. Oh well. Later. K15
