Avatar: the Adventure Continues
A/N I don't own avatar.
A/N2 the next two chapters are extremely short. This is the next to last chapter of this story.
The battle was going better than expected. Kuzon's army had finally broken the Fire Nation's ranks. With the exceptions of a few casualties everything seemed to be going fine. The small group of wounded were being tended to by waterbender healers. Kuzon was the first to recover since his arm was easy to fix. He waited for news on the others.
One soldier came out and said to Kuzon "Admiral, we regret to inform you that Toph Bei-Fong has died." The words pierced him like an icy shard. Emptiness came into his heart and rage replaced it.
He left without saying a single word to join the battle. He attacked every enemy mercilessly. He made sure to kill every one of them. They killed Toph, he wanted revenge. He shot blasts of lightning everywhere, killing all those who got in its path. Tears of anger poured down his face. His whole world had come to an end.
All four avatars attacked at once, but even against the odds Ozai stood his ground and even took out Avatar Kyoshi. She fell and vanished in a yellow flash. Soon avatar Kuruk and Roku fell so it was just Aang and Ozai. Then Aang sent out an air dome. Not only did it throw Ozai back, it caused the building to start collapsing. All the lightning and fire that damaged the walls caused the equilibrium of the building to collapse. Exiting the Avatar State he watched as beams piled between him and Ozai. He new Ozai was dead.
He ran as fast as he could out of the building. And he made it just as the building fell to the ground. The entire battle around him ceased as they all watched the palace crumble. Soon afterwards the Fire nation started to surrender. They new they had lost.
The war was over. Soldiers gathered up the surviving enemies and sent them to the ships. Although not everyone was celebrating, Kuzon, Iroh, Ursa, Aang, Katara, Sokka, Zuko, Mai, and Ty Lee were gathered around a lifeless Toph. Kuzon was holding her limp hand, crying at the loss of the one he cared about most. They all cried with him. Aang had lost his teacher, and his closest friend. Sokka knew he would miss all of Toph's sarcastic remarks. To Katara it was like losing a daughter. Iroh looked at her with sad eyes, although he did not know her real well, he would never forget meeting her.
Then to everyone's surprise the spirit of Avatar Roku appeared in front of them all. The sad faces looked up and bowed to him. The bluish spirit of Roku floated above the ground and bowed back. "I want to thank you all for the sacrifices you have made." he said. "You have ended the war that I could not stop. You helped Aang learn the elements. And you helped save the millions of lives that would be lost when Sozin's comet returned."
Kuzon didn't look at the avatar and said to him "Although I couldn't save Toph."
Roku looked at him and smiled "About that," he said "Thanks to you, the invasion was successful. And that is why I will do this." He put his hand over the wound on Toph's chest. His hand glowed and he vanished. The wound was gone, and then she started to breathe again.
She stirred and opened her eyes. Kuzon came into focus and she asked him "Kuzon? What happened?" He put his arms around her and held her tight.
"I'll never lose you again." Tears of joy fell down his face. They all joined in a group hug. The war was over and peace would be restored.
