The Avatar's Angel (Avatar the Last Airbender: Book 3: Fire)

Sozin's Comet, Part 4: Avatar Aang and Fire Angel Aya

Third Person POV

"Zuko!" Aya cries and tries to rush toward her cousin with her hands filled with healing flames, but Azula launches a fire blast in front of her before she could reach him. Aya's eyes find Katara, she knew her sister could recover fine and return to battle soon. Azula laughs manically and shoots lightning which Aya swiftly dodges by flying. Zuko attempts to get back up, but is too weak and can do nothing but watch as Azula shoots another lightning bolt at Aya, which she dodges again.

Katara sits up with a groan and immediately runs to Zuko's side to assist him. Aya turns to watch as Azula lands on a roof nearby and she begins charging another lightning attack.

"I'd really rather our family physician look after Little Zuzu if you don't mind." Azula shoots lightning and fire at Aya from the roof of a building. Aya manages to dodge them all and hides behind a column nearby. Azula speaks to Zuko in a taunting manner. "Zuzu, you don't look so good!"

She shoots at Aya again, but she manages to dodge her and moves behind another column. Aya forms fire in her hands and blasts it at the roof Azula was on, but she had moved. Azula comes from behind her on fire jets and she roughly pushed Aya into a building, causing rumble to fall on Aya's body and her entire body was covered.

Katara gasped. "No! Aya!"

Azula smiles and laughs. "How pathetic! You're weak and worthless."

The rumble vibrates and Azula narrows her eyes at this.

"You can't hide in there forever-"

Aya's body popped out of the rumble and she grabs Azula's uniform with anger. Aya's eyes were glowing yellow and her hair was on a fire with her wings bursting with flames. Azula's eyes filled with fear at Aya's new stance.

Azula attempted to firebend at Aya, but she swiftly knocked her hand out of the way. She sends a powerful fire blast at the princess, sending her into the building behind them and Azula crashed into it. Azula falls down in defeat and up above was Aya with a large dragon made of fire behind her fire filled body. The dragon roared loudly and it echoed through the atmosphere. Azula watched in astonishment and fear, she became frozen and didn't know what to do.

Aya sends a wave of fire toward Azula, who quickly bends the fire wave around her body so she wouldn't get hit and shields her body. Aya zooms back to the ground and as she lands, flames ripple across the ground. The fire dragon flies above Aya's head, glaring at the Fire Nation Princess.

Azula bends a fire blast at Aya, who just absorbs the fire into her body. Azula was shocked to see her absorb the fire and Aya grinned at her, before sending out two fire whips and grabbing her wrists with them. Azula yelled and struggle against the restraints, but she couldn't break fire and Aya zips over to the princess.

"Princess Azula, you have no right of becoming Firelord." The voices of all the Fire Angels spoke and Azula's eyes were filled off fear as she spoke. "And now, you will spend the rest of your life in prison."

Aya quickly puts Azula's hands behind her back and grabbed the nearby chains to trap her. Azula cried out, but Aya ignored her and chained her up to the column and she backed away.

Aya's dragon disappeared and she returned to her normal state. Azula began to cry out and she was sobbing hysterically, but Aya ignored her and ran toward Katara and Zuko.

Aya slid to her knees and checked her cousin to see Katara was healing his wound from the lightning strike and she began to tear up.

"Thank you, Aya..." He croaked out and she chuckled with tears in her eyes.
