When Kai met up with the other ninja they were all asleep except Cole who was staring at the dying fire. Kai smirks and made the fire become brighter. Cole looks behind him and his face instantly becomes relieved when he saw his hot head of a boyfriend. "Miss me?" Kai asks Cole. "Oh shut up and kiss me," Cole demands as he went over to Kai in a few quick steps and pulled him in for a kiss. Kai smiles as he wraps his arms around Cole's waist and kissed him passionately. When they separated for air their foreheads connected. "Never do that again," Cole orders and Kai chuckles. "Don't get held at death point and I might reconsider," Kai replies. Cole rolls his eyes and kissed him again. "Umm?" The two heard a voice mutter. They broke apart and turned to see Zuko staring mouth agape along with Sokka. "Hi guys Zuko you're dad is crazy," Kai said making a cocoo sign. "Do you mind?" Cole asks with a raised eyebrow upset their moment had been ruined.
Zuko was slightly red faced while Sokka look liked he was trying to wrap his head around the biggest question in the universe. "What are you doing up?" Kai asks trying to get them to stop staring at them. Zuko snaps out his shock and doesn't meet them in the eyes. "Sorry it's just that sorta love has been outlawed in the fire nation since the war started. I personally have nothing against it," Zuko explains. Cole rolls his eyes while Kai blushed slightly. "How? Your both dudes," Sokka asks being ever closed minded. "I'm too tired to explain this," Kai sighed. "Me too want to go somewhere private?" Cole asks. "See ya in the morning," Kai said as the two ninja left the two teenagers standing there. "Want to make out in the fire lords old bedroom?" Cole asks. "Yes please!" Kai replies giving Cole another heartfelt kiss.
In the morning
"So did Kai come back last night?" Katara asks Zuko and Sokka who were meant to stand watch. It was breakfast but there was no sign of the black or red ninja team avatar was worried but the ninja knew what they probably had gotten up to last night. Especially with how Zuko looked flustered like a child walking in on their parents and how Sokka nodded absent mindly. "Great I'll go ask him how his mission went!" Aang said with a joyous tone as he jumped around looking for the two. "Wait Aang!" Sokka yells but it was too late he was out of ear shot.
Aang looks around for the two ninja with Momo perched on his shoulder. That's when he heard moaning. He's confused until he turned a corner and saw Cole on top of Kai in the garden trying to take the red ninja's top off. Aang stares for a moment before Momo screeches some noises startling the two who broke the kisses and looked over at Aang. The young avatar was deeply flustered attempting to shield his eyes. The two got back up blushing slightly. "Sorry! Don't mind me I saw nothing," Aang said and began walking away. "Aang wait!" Kai calls out. Aang turns still feeling very flustered. "Are you disappointed in us?" Cole asks feeling self conscious after last night. Aang eyes widen and is confused. "You both love each other what's the problem?" He asks. "Because were the same sex," Kai said. "Oh that yeah. The air nomads saw love as love no matter the sex too bad that didn't get anywhere else. I was just reacting to how anyone would react when they see someone kissing," Aang shrugs. Cole and Kai were both visibly relieved they didn't want the avatar team feel weird or uncomfortable about the whole thing.
"Great now lets join the others," Kai said and they left to see the others. The ninja team were all happy to see Kai was okay and gave him tight hugs. Team avatar was also happy, but Sokka was still blushing after last night. Suki and Toph had gone into town for supplies so they just waited until they came back.
When they did come back it wasn't good. "Azula's going to be crowned fire lord!" Suki announces as they arrived. The whole group jumped to attention and Zuko yelled. "WHAT!? SHE'S INSANE!" Zuko said a little panicked.
Suki and Toph explained what had happened from what they knew and it wasn't good. Azula was to be crowned fire lord on the day of Sozin's comet after killing the avatar aka Aang. Everyone turned to Aang who was paler than fresh snow.
"I can't face her! She's one of the best fire benders in history even without Sozin's comet," Aang said. He was having a clear panic attack but Katara put a hand on his shoulder. "You are a skilled water bender and a talented air bender," she said encouragingly. "And proficient in fire bending thanks to me and Zuko," Kai said with a cocky grin. Everyone turned to Toph. "You're earth bending needs work," she states bluntly and everyone but Aang face palms.
"I'm doomed!" He said. "Well look on the bright side," Zuko said. "What's the bright side here?" Jay asks. "He gets to kill my sister," Zuko said bluntly and Aang looks close to breaking down. "I don't want to kill anyone," he said sadly. "Look Aang the comet is in three days. I agree no one should have the burden of killing someone as young as you, but sometimes the best way to help the world is by having another leave it," Sokka said trying to be helpful. Aang looked down. "I need some time to think alone," he said walking away to his room in the house. It left the others to figure out what to do.
"If I know my sister she's gonna send a battalion to wipe out the entire earth kingdom like my father planned. But she isn't going to go herself," Zuko said in thought. "Why not?" Jay asks. "The comet is only going to last five hours. Being crowned fire lord and then going to arm the battalion to the earth kingdom the comet won't last that long. She's probably going to send my father," Zuko said. "No if your sister is as skilled as she is said. She would leave your father to watch over the fire capitol then crown herself fire lord once the earth kingdom is wiped out," Sokka said.
"We need help," Cole said. "We can handle it," Kai said. "No if we want to take out a entire nation we need someone to help us someone with strong connections. Besides what about that place Ba sing play?" Cole asks. "Ba sing sei the earth kingdom capitol it's control by the fire nation," Katara said. "Yes that. It doesn't matter if Aang defeats the fire lord or not as long as the capital is occupied by the fire nation the war is not over," Cole said. "Yeah your right. There will still be people loyal to either Ozai or Azula they won't just give up the city because some new fire lord says so," Sokka said. "Speaking of which who is going to be the new fire lord?" Toph asks. That was a burning question and everyone looked at Zuko. Zuko felt the eyes on him. "What?" He asks. "Who's going to be the new fire lord? It can't be your sister and we cannot leave your father in charge," Suki said. "Uncle Iroh he would make a great fire lord," Zuko answers. "What about you?" Lloyd asks. Zuko paled at the idea. "No way I've made too many mistakes I would just turn into my father," Zuko said. "Or your uncle he's super funny and wise," Toph said having a personal liking for the right. "I'm not even sure where my uncle is. I am not becoming fire lord," Zuko said. "But-" Katara was cut off. "I'M NOT BECOMING FIRE LORD!" Zuko yelled and stormed off. Everyone exchange glances this was gonna be a long stressful three days.
