Summary
Zuko just wants to live his life in peace, but after a horrible fire broke out in his home when he was eleven years old, the gossip mill around town got out of control and blamed Zuko for the fire that permanently scarred his face. A few years later, when their school burns down, several students claim he was the cause of it, officially branding him as the town firebug.
Now at the age of 24, working in his Uncle's cafe, Zuko is burdened by an accusation he was innocent of and is followed around by claims of arson when a string of suspicious fires breaks out over the span of several years. Officer Zhao is determined to arrest the young man on these unfounded charges, meanwhile Sokka and the rest of the Southern Water Fire Department believe Zuko's pleas of innocence. Determined to get to the bottom of this once and for all, and free Zuko of eight years of blame so that he can finally try to move on and live a peaceful life, Chief Hakoda, Lieutenant Bato and Sokka may discover much more than they bargained for and just may put Zuko's life at stake.

The Way of the Sword by Chaos Avatar Eria (nachtwaechterin)

Summary
“Zuko was weak.
Azula excelled at everything. Zuko excelled at nothing.
Azula was a firebending prodigy. Zuko would probably burn himself with his own fire if it was possible.
Azula was four. Zuko was eight, yet he struggled with most things she was already able to do.
Azula’s skin was soft and white: untouched. Zuko’s was rough, red and ridden with scars. Scars that he deserved because there was nothing Zuko was good at.”OR:
Zuko can’t do anything right. But when Piandao teaches him the way of the sword, he finds his talent as well as a safe haven he could flee to when the world becomes too much.
This story is in the progress of being rewritten. When the new version is out, you can find it in the "works inspired by this work" section.

Summary
She shivers under her borrowed shawl, knowing she should get back to the caravan if she doesn't want to freeze tonight, but she can't quite make herself leave, not when she knows he's so close. She could sneak onto that boat and see him, if she wanted to. That's how close he is.
Well, a voice says in Ty Lee's mind. You could.

Summary
Everyone knows how it went. Zuko comes, Gaang sends him away… But what if bending wouldn't be the only form of magic that people can use? The other one is more common, everyone can do this, but no one really wants to. After all, becoming someone’s slave isn’t something sounding like fun, but Zuko can be stupid when he’s desperate. But that can be a good thing. Death is even less fun.
Book three, episode twelve goes differently.English isn’t my native language, so sorry for all mistakes. Grammar can be hard…

Summary
Two years ago, Prince Lu Ten was lost at sea with his entire crew, with no body recovered or confirmation of life or death, the Fire Sages urged the royal family to choose a new successor to replace him in the line. Prince Zuko and Princess Azula are both of age to take the throne, but first they must complete a series of tests to prove they are prepared for this position, as every ruler in their family had to. They accomplished every test placed before them and completed every task, until they are faced with one final mission. Given six months to complete their quest, Azula is sent to handle civil unrest in a series of islands while Zuko is tasked to find and slay a great beast that has been terrorizing people across the nations for the last four decades. Every man to take up arms against it has failed.
Tasked with this seemingly impossible mission, he sets forth to track the beast down and end its reign of terror over the people once and for all. Though as he races against time in this journey, he discovers that the burdens of such a quest had led him to a fortuitous crossroads as he wars with his heart and his duty to his people.

TW: referenced rape of minor, poisoned drinks, death of a minor, death of a sibling, and date rape drugs.
You knew something was wrong with the prince, but you'd thought it was just him being a teenager. Until you learn it's not.
