Apologies were given, few faces returned while everything came and went. Lukas made his decision of receiving help, leaving everyone with uncertainty. Petra came back, being given a chance at redemption. While that happened, Clayre, still saddened by the death of her wife, kept attempting to stay strong. Caira and her family came together, along with her former in-laws, Goku and Chi-Chi. As of right now...

Connor's Point of View.

So far, reading was what I had been doing. For awhile I've been training and practicing bending, I'm practically fourteen at this point too. Most of the time, I've been doing things. Just as I past by an open door, I glanced over and found my five year old brother drawing something. Deciding to check up on him, I walked over and knelt down. "Whatcha drawing there, goofball?"

He looked up at me, that tiny smile on his face. "Batman." He said.

I chuckled, laying down by him and setting my book to the side. "Batman, eh?" I took a look and found him drawing the bat symbol.

"Yea." Azrael said, taking a black marker and filling in the blank space. He leaned forward grabbing a piece of paper and holding it out to me. "I drew you!"

"Aww, thanks man." I grabbed the paper and took a look at it but, I got stunned. Somehow, it was a perfect portrait of me. He got every part of my body right! It looked real! It was literally me in a fighting stance, holding my bolo knife, my footing at a perfect angle! "Wh..."

I found his smile fading as he looked at me. "What?"

"Az...How did you do this?" I asked.

"Secret." Azrael giggled.

"You're an artist!" I almost shouted, he kind of covered his ears. "Sorry."

"It's ok." He said, but his smile faded, making me a bit concerned. "Some of the other kids think I'm a weirdo."

That's when I got kind of pissed. "What? Where'd you get THAT from?"

"Kids like LJ." Azrael said, I could see tiny tears forming in his eyes. I mentally growled.

I placed a hand on his back and rubbed it while using my other hand to wipe his eyes. "Hey Az, don't worry about it, they're wrong. You've got something special. You hear me?" I asked, he nodded. "Good. Now, how about you show me one of your fire bombs?"

My little brother shook his head. "It's not ready yet. Still needs work."

"Show me what you got so far then." I said, he agreed to do so, leading me to his makeshift desk. I watched as he worked on his weapon. Every few minutes, he asked me to grab a certain tool and give it to him, I did as told.

Later on, it was night, I had continued reading when suddenly I heard...

"AAAAAAH!!!!!"

I immediately got up from my bed and rushed towards Azrael's room. "AZRAEL?!" I shouted, he screamed louder, something was wrong. I tried opening the door but it was locked. "AZ STAND BACK, I'M GONNA BUST DOWN THE DOOR!"

"What's going on?!" I looked to find mom and dad running over along with Uncle Zuko, Uncle Corbin, and a few of the others.

"AZRAEL'S IN TROUBLE!" I shouted, kicking at the door, making loud sounds.

"Move!" Dad shouted, ramming himself against the door, it finally busted open.

I ran in first, looking around and finding Azrael curled up against the corner. He looked terrified. "Azrael!" I rushed to him and picked him up. "Are you okay?!" I heard the soft but quiet cries coming from him.
