Summary
Agni has always been watching Zuko and has always lamented his fate. "He's lucky he was born," no. It was Agni who brought him into this world, he was born lucky because Agni was always with him. When his mother was taken from him, she cried with him. When he was afraid, she tried to keep the sun shining on him. When his own father sentenced him to death, she did everything to keep him alive.
With the help of Tui and La, they led him out to the ocean of the Southern Water Tribe, where Hakoda found the injured Zuko.Or
Ozai sentenced 8-year-old Zuko to death. Hakoda found him in the boat and took care of him. Not alone, of course. Quite simply, Zuko raised in the Water Tribe XD Inspiration from "Another Brother".Story oryginaly is in polish. I'm not native sooo

Summary
I was inspired by "Salvage" from MuffinLance to imagine a Zuko that found a family with Hakoda's crew after a shipwreck, but what would happen if Zhao attacked the Water Tribe's ship and found the 13 year-old prince he loathed.
Hakoda took steady steps to his cabin as he felt the eyes of the crew following him. Most of the crew had no clue to what had happened, all they saw was their captain murderous eyes as he fought a Fire Nation soldier that was hiding in the ship. The only ones that saw what really went down were Bato and Nanouk. While Bato helped Hakoda it was Nanouk that protected Zuko from the curious eyes of the rest of the crew. He swiftly closed the door and stood guard while the crew was distracted by the commotion in the deck. He trusted his crew like he trusted his family, but his protective instincts enhance when he is in the young prince’s proximity.

Summary
An agonizing pain had seared through his skull as he dragged himself forward. His claws were replaced by the helpless pudgy fingers of a human's. His legs didn't move the way his own did as he crawled to his knees.
Faintly, he could still feel the swishing weight of his tail and the raw exposed nerve in his broken horn to the open air. This lanky form was unfit for anything Zuko was accustomed to as he forced himself to wobble to his feet, searching blindly through the rolling fog that filled the tower.
Distantly, he heard the screams of startled people as they cried out.
"It's avatar Roku!"
Zuko cocked his head, twisting around as his gaze swiveled in search of the Avatar. His right eye widened when he spotted his imposing figure standing in the doorway of the temple tower. A blue light pulsed off of him that radiated immense spirit energy.
"Roku?" Zuko croaked miserably, this human voice was uncomfortable in his fragile throat. It felt raw and smoky as he breathed the syllables past his lips. Sparks licked off his tongue as he grimaced and hissed his displeasure at the sound of more shrill human screams.

Summary
Zuko was cast out of the fire nation without warning, without a crew, and worse without his uncle. His father had made his mission more then impossible, and with a fresh burn covering a third of his face he wasn't sure how far he could make it. When he gets offered a chance to escape the hell inflicted on him he takes it and doesn't look back.
3 years later he's living a new life with a new name. The town's people don't care that he can light a candle across the room when he's been helping heal their wounds for so long. But someone does care, and that someone needs a teacher.
(final draft is being posted under the same name. link in 15th chapter.)
Zuko might not be able to avoid his father's war forever...but maybe he can help end it.- Language:

Summary
After decimating most of The Southern Water Tribe, The Fire Nation is finding peace hard to broker. When a political marriage is proposed, Chieftan Hakoda is reluctant to accept, and that was before he found out the fire nation candidate was a child. A child no older than his own.
Obviously, the marriage is off.
But one look at the prince sends off all sorts of red flags in Hakoda’s brain. It's clear he can’t send the boy back, but he also can’t marry him. And how, for all the love of Tui and La, was he supposed to negotiate with a man willing to trap a terrified child in a marriage half the world away from home?

Summary
Healing a broken world is much like healing a broken heart. Maybe the pieces will never quite fit back together perfectly or a few go missing along the way. But what fills in the gaps can bloom into something you never dreamed possible.
Life and love flow like the ever changing tides.

Summary
At eleven years old, Zuko was exiled from the Fire Nation and declared nameless. All proof of his existence was destroyed. And then, it was as if Zuko never existed at all.
At sixteen, Lee was imprisoned and sent to the Boiling Rock Penitentiary to serve a life sentence. There, he finds a new family and allows himself to hope for a glimpse of happiness. But even that hope runs dry.
At twenty-two, Lee is once again nameless in the Earth Kingdom. If the Fire Nation finds him, he fears execution. He has nowhere to go and nowhere to hide. Nowhere, except the Southern Water Tribe.
Set in a modern world where the Fire Nation has conquered and colonized the Air Nomads, the Water Tribes, and most of the Earth Kingdom. But things are shifting, the world is changing, and rebellion is a fire that won't be snuffed out easily. And when this fire spreads, it may be the Fire Nation that is on the losing side of this hundred-year war.

Reasons not to leave Zuko alone with his New Friends and other short stories by KittenPrincess13 for MuffinLance
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
18 Apr 2023
Tags
Summary
Bunch of short pieces that don't belong with any of my other works so I'll group them all together. Zuko makes friends and learns somewhat normal teenage behavior as well as sibling relationships. Being dramatic is a Fire Nation cultural heritage. Reasons not to leave Zuko alone in port. And first thing is an introduction of characters plus backgrounds.

Summary
He should have known something was going to happen. Really it should have been obvious. He just didn’t think the rest of the gang would have noticed a change in behavior. He didn’t think they cared enough to realize. He wouldn’t have, he chased them across the world for months and hurt them. Why would they care?

Summary
Hakoda ends up a prisoner of Zhao on his ship mid Book 1 (circa the episode Bato of the Water Tribe) and ends up with an unlikely cellmate, Zuko. Zhao is an absolute vile creep towards Zuko, which sets off all of Hakoda's parental alarm bells. Zhao has his way with Zuko and Hakoda does his best to pick up the pieces.
Its me mashing together tropes I like : Zuko getting more parental figures, Zhao being a vile cockroach of a man, Hakoda in general.
I've seen similar plots with Zhao imprisoning Zuko and Sokka, and I've seen Hakoda and Zuko trapped together, but not the combination.-

Summary
With the avatar gone and taking their darn sweet time to come back to the world, the world itself has been thrown into chaos and imbalance. Not only the human world but that of the spirits. Malevolent spirits have been spotted more and more in the world of humans and some form of intervention must be done.
Since the fire sages, the last sages of their kind, are too busy licking the Firelord's boots and certain spirits have decided to go about their own business, it's up to the shamans and their helpful spirit companions to try and bring back balance to the realms, that is until the avatar makes a surprising reappearance....
A shaman Zuko story but this isn't really the Zuko we know.
