Note: Takes place before Nara and after Iron Family
Summary: In which three wise Monks gain power and Nightwing talks to a mask and Zuko finds a ghost.
Chapter 1: three wise Monks have a son, somehow
Three wise Monks had no idea what they were doing, but at least they knew why. Why? Because they were dumb, dumb as the Court of Owls. So, now they're redeeming their repudiation or at least trying to by raising said child of the bird people from afar. And, by that they mean keeping him alive until he lived pasted thirty, they wished for forty though otherwise Nightwing would bash them up and kill them because of it.
So, now the three members of a very big Court well a big court to them was sitting in front of a courtyard with three stuff toys. They had found them in an old temple and they supposed these three stuff toys were the same toys Sparrow was going to give to her son at birth. Before they did dumb, dumb move. So, now they sit here and they sit with an impatience Zuko whom didn't get why there were three stuff toys. Much less know what stuff toys were much less wanted a stuff toys and much less wanted to be with them, but this was a serious task apparently according to some old files they had found because despite making the title up on the spot. That said title was very real and very much a real thing that was very important to the world, very important indeed.
And, according to that story the three stuff toys were apart of the task, they were so old that it looked as if Sparrow had one of the toys to begin with. Oh, the joys, the three Monks thought to themselves as they sat there cross legged nervously at that and figuring with their thumbs. This well either worked out well or horribly well. Either way, this was very much a thing.
"Why is this waste here?"asked Kyoshi.
"These are rare toys found in the west and the west alone. These said toys are the ones to pick the Avatar," said the Monk trying his best to sound old and wise wind blew from behind them the moment he pointed his finger in the air. He tried to ignore it.
"So, once the lad has picked one we would know he is the Avatar," said the second wise Monk.
"And, what is the Avatar?"wonder Lady Kyoshi.
"It is the Power House the balance of the world as a whole," said the wise Monk as he tried to remembered Nightingale.
"Truly and where can I find this power?"wonder Kyoshi.
"No, where you must be the heir of the last Power House," said the Monk.
There was a moment of pause and stillness for you see Kyoshi wanted that power. She frowned at the boy and shook her head.
"You're not worthy of my time at all boy. You can stay with these Monks, for all I care."
And, the Monks gulped down their fear because this isn't what they wanted or what they meant when they said they well raised strange child from a-fair. And, then it dawned on them the three wise Monks had officially become idiots.
Chapter 2 In which Nightwing talks to a mask and a helmet, Batman concerned
Nightwing was starting to have seriously problems as far as the other members of the Bat Clan were concerned because he sat there cross legged sitting to mask and a helmet looking for answers. And, Batman had asked his wife if his wife had ever dropped their child on the head when he was young. Only to get a shook head and a sob because Wonder Woman was still moaning the lost of her youngest leaving Batman being clueless as ever as to what to do with the oldest. And, so his oldest son sat there talking to a curse mask and a curse helmet for long hours of the day, talking about his once to be wife and his so-called missing grandson.
As far as Batman knew the son was killed shortly after Sparrow was taken. Nightwing didn't seem to think so and kept to himself mumbling about how to get to him and where to find him, and what to do with him. Because apparently, apparently even Jason was showing signs of being more worried then he was because his right eye wouldn't stop twitching and he wouldn't stop gesturing to Batman. As if to say, hurry up and stop him! Batman was still clueless about everything especially about being a parent because he was still in shock that the Queen of the Amazon's who was over three hundred had a great, grandson or granddaughter.
"He tried to go to the east," cried Jason. "Pack his bag and all. As if to say, hah see yar west you were lame. He's soul searching Batman! Soul searching!"
Batman heard ringing in his ears after being shouted at which may or may not be a good sign.
"Soul searching?"wonder Batman.
What was soul searching? What was this? And, what was that? And, what happened to his daughter whom would make warm cup's of hot chocolate every morning and wrinkle her face at coffee and slam the door shut just to do her hair. And, wear fine clothes and pearl necklaces and bash the crap out of the Joker if he so much stared at her in the long way.
Batman was still looking for his daughter and now he was coming to the fact his son was going to leave. For the east. Where was the east? What was the east? Whatever do you mean? And, last but not least what was soul searching! Batman inner self was basically screaming at himself to wake up and to wake up now, because his son was talking to a mask and a helmet as if they were alive when Zee had said they were very powerful and very much cursed objects.
"Wait what?"
"He was soul searching!"yelled Jason.
Half of the things from his bookcase went flying of the selves and his cape went flying at the shout and his feet almost lifted off the air.
"Looking for answers is what people call that," said Batman helpfully. Jason of course didn't find this very helpfully and glared.
"He's lost the plot. He think's he has a son who's in the east and went off to find him."
Batman narrowed his eyebrows and glared. "Says whom?"
"Says the damn cursed mask," said Jason.
Puff smoke appeared in the cave with party streamings and all.
"Ta-da, Zee is here once again," said the spell caster with a smile on his face.
"Zee," Batman grunted.
"I'm here to inform you that mask is no typical mask. It holds your daughter soul," said Zee.
"…" Batman remained silent. And, still, and then silent as he thought to himself what the spell caster said. Jason on the other hand did not, remained silent.
"What?" Jason yelled.
And, this is how and this why Batman started to believe that he has a grandson in the east who was training to be an Avatar.
Dun, dun, dun, he could've sown he heard someone say from another dimension. He wanted to punch that someone, but couldn't, so instead he tossed a smoke bomb at Zee feet and the magic man coughed the smoke away and Batman kept glaring at the world.
Chapter 3 in which three Monks have the power to move leaves
Maybe things worked differently in the east compared to the west. Court of Owls don't know, Court of Owls didn't understand things that went far from the basic, the Court of Owls didn't understand right to wrong. The Court of Owls were a bed time story for some and just as worst as the Joker to others. Either way, the Court of Owls have that infant again only that said infant is ten thinking he can take hold of the world, thinking he does not need anyone thinking he is ruler of that said world. Thinking with a scary evil laugh and then bam a tree burnt down in flames, the Court of Owls went baa. One fainted, the third one remember he was a shape shifting owl and not a shape shifting goat and went hoot instead of baa and the middle one ran around screaming as if his head was chopped off.
And, the boy who thought he could rule the world was ever so proud of himself and the once and noble Court was ever so sure they were fools. With intentions in tracking the person whose catch phrase is dun, dun, dun.
This is wise and this is how thought the wise one who went hoot instead of baa, that they were fools with a child. Which meant what to whom and whom to what? Track down Nightwing and explained all mess before he tracks them down just to bash them up.
"I think it's time for you to see your father," said the wise owl. While the others were still a mess.
"My father," said Zuko. "What of my mother?"
And, then there was a seriously paused because the wise owl was not expecting such an answer.
"We killed her," he admitted. Was this wise or not wise? He wondered.
And, Zuko saw red he attacked with revenge and sent fire after fire at the owls and they moved and moved as swiftly and as quickly as possible. Wishing their God well grant them super speed, but it never happened. Until then it happened, a large powerful guess of wind pumped out of his hands and he pushed Zuko far away blowing leaves along with it. And, once Zuko was gone the wise old Monk stood still under the damage woodland and went to himself, he just moved a leaf. He collapsed, shortly after mostly from shock for you see wise old Monks weren't used to blowing away leaves.
Chapter 4 In which an ancestors speaks to a heir
Zuko possible has lost his only ride back to wherever his father might be either way he was lost and alone, pushed back by a powerful gust of wind and now he was alone in the woodland wondering what to do and what to say. Either way, he was lost until it happened silver mist was seen flying around him and something was forming into matter, only to appeared to be a woman in a purple custom staring down at him and sitting cross legged.
"Zuko," she said. "At least they kept your name."
"Who are you?"wondered Zuko.
"I am Sparrow, your mother," she said.
"She's dead."
And, then he realised if seeing a ghost was a bad thing or if seeing it meant he was doom. His mother seen to have sensed the same fear in him and told him everything was fine and well.
"Relax my son seeing me is not the end of your life it is merely the beginning."
"So, where am I from?"he questioned.
"You're from the west. I have shown your father the way have trust that he well be there to find you."
And, then in a cold mist she vanished from sight and was gone leaving him crying and lost once again.
Chapter 7 in which Nightwing finds his son
"You must awaken."
It started off faint, it started off as if the voice was just a whispered carried off by the wind, but it was there.
"You must awaken," it said in a hushed whispered sounding like his sister when she was ticked off.
He slept instead trying to let it go away and never come back like his sister body wasn't coming back all he burrowed was a couple of her things and left a gravestone.
"You must awaken!"she yelled and screamed howling in the wind shattering glass as she did so causing him to wake up and his eyes snapped opened as he pictured a boy in the woodland lost and alone and crying for help. Knowing deep down his son was lost, but not knowing how to help him. "Faith shall know."
Faith shall know, Zee said the same thing Faith shall know. Faith was a helmet whom hadn't spoken and let there was the helmet laying on his floor next to his slippers only as if it teleported to him. He narrowed his eyebrows and glared at the helmet before he slowly put it on. Only to be stopped by a cold shivering hand.
"Be weary to not use this helmet more than three," said an elderly man before he too faded away.
Before he could questioned to himself what more than three was he was Doctor Faith flying out the door dressed in gold and opening a golden portal. He found himself in the west and the boy lost and alone was so frighten of him that he tried to back away, but Nightwing placed a hand on the boy shoulder ever so slowly and took of his helmet.
And, then only then did the boy knew he was safe and reassured for that was his father and his mother was true to her word.
