Summary
The defeat of the Fire Lord was meant to mark the end of the war. But when the Gaang arrives at the Caldera, they find Fire Lord Zuko waiting for them. That's when they learn that Azula has an older brother and ending a 100-year war may not be as straightforward as they thought.
Zuko may be worse than Azula. At least they could just fight her.- Language:

Summary
“It’s healing really well.” Katara tells him with a smile, before her lips quirk down into a frown. “Though it’ll still scar pretty bad.”
Zuko shrugs. “It’s ok. I doubt people will really focus on it anyway… the one on my face is a bit more prominent.”
Katara makes a face, like she’s not quite sure if she should laugh or frown, when Toph speaks up.
“You have a scar on your face?” Toph asks, sitting up so she’s sitting by his legs rather than lying on them.
Zuko blinks. He never quite forgets that Toph is blind, but the fact that she can’t see his scar never really occurred to him.
“Oh, yeah.” Zuko looks down at his lap. “My father burned like, half my face off before I was banished.” He says it a little too casually, probably not bitterly enough.
A crash next to him makes him look up, to see Katara's horrified expression, and a shattered bowl of water at her feet.
No one says anything for a long moment.
“Zuko… it- your dad?” Katara finally manages to gasp out. Zuko blinks at her, his brain moving slowly.
“You didn’t know?” He asks in genuine surprise.
“No.” Sokka wheezes.
Zuko blinks at him. “Oh.” Is all he can manage to say.

Summary
“Who?” he asks.
“Who what?”
“Who decided to take me with you? Which of you decided to save my life in the North?” Zuko asks, his words filled with all the hatred he feels for them.
The Waterbender, Boomerang Boy, and the Avatar exchange glances.
Or: Aang saved Zuko in the North. In the Fire Nation, a life saved is a debt owed—and it must be repaid.

Summary
Zuko was born a girl, Azula a boy—and the Fire Nation never imagined the unwanted daughter of the second son would ever be named Crown Princess. But when she is, Zhao sees the opportunity. And takes it.
Some things never change. Zuko is still banished, still hunting the Avatar. But this time, she’s not fighting for her honor, but for her daughter’s future.
