Summary
Katara Waterbends in front of Yon Rha before Kya can sacrifice herself.
Rather than killing the child, the Southern Raiders ensure she is shipped to the Fire Nation palace dungeon, far from snow and moonlight.Three weeks later, a clever, ambitious royal with a habit of sneaking around grandfather’s palace overhears that the last Southern Waterbender has been brought to her permanent cell. She sneaks into the dungeon at night, attempting to see the prisoner for herself. Yet, instead of finding an embittered warrior, all Princess Azula sees is a girl her age, scared and alone.
Her perspective on the Hundred-Year War is fundamentally changed forever.

Summary
Prince Zuko spends his mornings sitting by the turtleducks, feeding them pieces of bread and talking in a low voice. He plays pai sho with the courtesans, and performs mini-concerts with the tsungi horn for the royal guard, and takes servants' children to the market square to buy fire flakes and molten pear drops from the street vendors.
And if Azula closes her eyes, she can pretend that everything’s fine.
It does not change the fact that Zuko's going to die.
(AU where Zuko was blessed by Agni and Ozai plans to sacrifice him on the day of the eclipse.)

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.

The Face of The Enemy by bunniecha12
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005), Avatar: The Last Airbender (Live Action TV 2024)

Summary
Nothing has been untouched; starvation, exploitation, and death at the hands of the Fire Nation. As the Southern Water Tribe’s benders are hunted to extinction, one is born beneath a full moon. Her first cries echo through the night: a waterbender.
The raid came fast—brutal, merciless. But Katara was spared. Hidden away in the Fire Nation palace, growing up in the shadow of her enemies. Forced to assimilate for survival, she clung to the only remnants of home, her mother’s necklace… and the light in a lonely boy’s golden eyes.
Zuko. The prince who made her laugh when nothing else could.
The Avatar returned, the war’s tides shifted, and Katara seized her chance to escape.
Joining Aang, she fights for the world’s freedom—while battling the ghosts of her past, including the boy who never wrote, the boy who stood on the wrong side when it mattered most.
He comes seeking redemption. And though she’s the only one who hasn’t forgiven him, those long-buried feelings—have never truly left her.
In the quiet moments between battles, they begin to surface again, soft and smoldering. And slowly, painfully, their hearts begin to remember what they once were… and thoughts of what they might become.-

Summary
Zuko never held a pivotal position in the royal family. He was just the son of Fire Lord Azulon’s secondborn, and brother of Azula, the prodigy. To most, he was nothing more than some entitled guy they had to tolerate, so insignificant that nobody really protested when a Water Tribe bride was deemed suitable for him.
Yet he soon finds himself kneeling behind his father at the Coronation Plaza, draped in funeral robes for the second time that month while the nation hails their new Fire Lord. Now, as the unwanted heir with a foreign wife, he must navigate the deadly politics of the Fire Nation court to survive.

Summary
Fire Lord Azulon names Zuko as his successor.
This does not fit with Ozai's plans.
This does not fit with Iroh's plans.
This does not fit with Zuko's desperate finger hold of control over his life, which is quickly disintegrating around him.-

Zuko’s favorite time of day is bath time.
(He doesn’t notice the way the waves are just a touch larger than they should be, the way the ripples he causes last just that bit longer than they should. To Zuko, it’s just the way water works.)Series

Summary
Ursa felt sick.
She was now married to a man she neither loved nor knew, and dread curled her stomach to knots. The wedding itself had been…fine, as fine as such an occasion could be, with the best food and drink, excellent music and dancers. However, she constantly had been hyper-aware of her husband’s presence. Subconsciously, Ursa had tried to breathe more quietly and barely moved, hoping to make herself invisible to the tense man next to her. It had been obvious to her that her husband was displeased and now she feared him to take that anger out on her.
---
Ursa was taken by the Fire Lord to marry his second son, Prince Ozai, who had a reputation of possessing a violent temper and being a cruel man. It left her dreading the wedding night, but it didn't turn out the way she expected.It was much better.

Summary
Zuko is four years old when Azula comes into the world screaming. The young boy’s attention was drawn to the little wriggling bundle in Ursa’s arms. Cocking his head in curiosity, Zuko crawled closer to try and get a better look. A warm chuckle wrapped around his little form as his mother reached forward to present the little bundle before him. “This is your little sister.” As Ursa spoke, the cloth was peeled away to reveal a baby swaddled within the soft blanket. The tiny babe is pressed gently into the arms of her older brother, his arms positioned for him to support her head. Amber flashed behind tiny eyelids in the midday sun and Zuko found that he couldn’t tear his eyes away… This is his little sister? “She’s really mine mama?” Tenderly she carded a tired hand through her now eldest child’s hair. “Yes my little drake, she is yours.” Zuko stared at the tiny baby with rapt attention. She was so tiny in his arms, He was only five years old but she was just so… Beautiful. Zuko knew from that moment on he would do anything for his little sister. She’s his. Mother had said so.
So, this is more of an outline than anything else. Ive been really inspired by MuffinLance and just had to write this! Please Enjoy!

Summary
The masters Ran and Shaw were out of balance. When Shaw flew, Ran followed, not from behind, but rather from beside. They were imbalanced and something was wrong. The drake wasn't supposed to be in danger, but he was. He was in great danger and the masters could not stand by, to let it come to be. Their warriors were hiding from the winter night's cold and Tui had taken her leave. The drake was coming and they wouldn't let him down.
They had long ago claimed him as one of their warriors and they would protect him.

Summary
Sometimes, Mother is draped in the Fire Lord’s robes, with burns licking up and down her bare chest. Sometimes it’s a loose dress and a white silk cord wrapped around her neck, or the five-piece rags of the drawn and quartered.
Azula’s favorite is when Mother is drowned, her fingernails bloody from struggling and her limbs swollen up to comical proportions, but nowadays Azula rarely gets what she wants.

Summary
Ursa adored the boy. Iroh doted on him. Azulon would coo at the child when he thought others weren’t watching. Even Lu Ten, who often declared the baby boring, would play with Zuko near the turtleduck pond. No, it seemed Ozai was the only one who saw what a disappointment his son was.
No matter. His problem would be dealt with by morning.

Summary
Agni has stood by as his children have used their gifts to burn the world, consumed with despair but reluctant to interfere. When the one who is meant to act as his intermediary in the mortal realm burns his own son in a shocking act of cruelty in front of a crowd who fail to step in, that is the final straw.
The Fire Nation descends into chaos at the sudden loss of firebending, & the war becomes bloodier still, as the troops fight on out of sheer desperation, terrified that a reckoning is now due.
And then Iroh, tending his injured nephew while trying to keep him safe from a vengeful father who blames him for this calamity, realises that Zuko's inner flame still burns...
