CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR
A Death Warrant Is Issued
Unsurprisingly the news that Fire Lord Ozai, his daughter Princess Azula, and her
husband Grand Vizier Zhao were all dead had traveled quite fast. War Minister Qing was
being briefed on the situation. He was now the leader of the Fire Nation, and he would
see to it that The Avatar and all his friends were executed. After the briefing War
Minister Qing sat silent for a few moments to collect his thoughts. "I want them dead,
and I want them dead now!" he roared. "Don't even waste your time trying to bring them
in alive, just kill them." After another moment of contemplation, War Minister Qing gave
a new order. "On second thought, try and bring Prince Zuko in alive. He will have
something special in store for him. But make sure you kill the others, especially The
Avatar." War Minister Qing went back to his own thoughts, "they will pay for this
outrage" he thought to himself. "This is far from over."
