Third Pov.

At the Southern Water Tribe.

"Oh look, is there another Waterbender joining?" The head asked as Jimin came in. He got his mouth cap off and his hat the head was kinda shocked. "I'm here to fight, to fight you. Give our Waterbenders their freedom back and let them get taught how to fight with Waterbending. And most importantly, stop being head. I've heard some stories from 'prisoners' getting thrown into jail only because you're lying. You're trying to be innocent but when someone knows you're not, they're being thrown in jail. No wonder that jail has too much people. So get the fuck off that chair and give that place to your son. Who will probably notice all of the things I just mentioned. Don't you, Hyunjae?" Jimin asked getting to the head and then to Hyunjae. Hyunjae sighed and nodded. "Dad, we want to learn how to fight. And stop throwing innocent people in jail. This is not how you lead a whole Tribe." Hyunjae said and Jimin smiled a bit. "Let's do an Agni Kai, Jimin. You choose someone to fight, or fight yourself. And I choose someone to fight, or fight myself. Deal?" The head suggested and Jimin froze for a second. "In 10 minutes at the fighting area. But let's not kill. If I win, Hyunjae will become head. If you win, I'll get in jail. But don't choose Hyunjae." Jimin said and left the room. He got out and walked down the stairs in front of the building. "Jungkook, you in an Agni Kai against the person the head chooses. No killing though, that goes too far for this weak and soft Tribe." Jimin said as he grabbed Jungkook's wrist and they all walked to the fighting area. "Why me? I don't even know what I'm gonna fight about." Jungkook asked as they entered the fighting area. "Because you're the Avatar, and you have mastered 3 of the 4 elements. You're the strongest person on Earth, and as Avatar you should help people. Including this Tribe. Now get ready, before I'll make you. Because this fight will decide the Tribe's future. And my future. 'Cause I'll be put in jail again if you don't win." Jimin said as he sat at the side of the area with the rest. "You've been in jail before?" Yoongi asked and Jimin nodded. "Park Ji Min, explain." Jin said strictly looking at Jimin. "When we're back on the ship I'll explain at the campfire. Now shut up, I'm trying to make sure Jungkook wins, because I ain't planning to get back in jail." Jimin said and Jin sighed. "But if he does lose you can't explain if you'll be back in jail." Jin said and Jimin shrugged. "That's exactly why he wants to tell us after the match I think." Taehyung said and Jimin nodded. After some minutes the head came with the one he chose and Jimin got shocked. The head came with himself. "He's gonna fight himself, that should be easy." Jimin commented and Jungkook sat at the side of the ring just talking with Taehyung.

Pov Jung Kook.

"Looks like I'll have to fight against someone from the Fire Nation. This should be easy, you already look like you're shivering from the cold." Who I suppose is the head said and I got my attention to him. "I'm not just someone from the Fire Nation, I'm the Avatar. And Crown Prince. And I'm not cold, because my Firebending ability keeps me the good temperature everywhere I am. So I'm totally fine, it's just. I've never fought in an Agni Kai, and I actually never planned to. But I'm doing it for the sake of this Tribe." I said and he nodded. "Let's start then." He said and I nodded. I got to my place and took a glance at Jimin. He seemed nervous, too nervous. "3, 2, 1, start!" The counter screamed and I shot some fire on him immediately. He just avoided it. He's not really a fighter probably. I kept attacking and he kept avoiding. This did me think of my training with Yoongi. "Stop this Jungkook, I'm not even fighting. I'm avoiding, best way to not get hurt and get your enemy exhausted." I remembered. He's avoiding, making me exhausted. The best way to fight someone who avoids is without any bending. It's with your pure hands. Even though you could see that he liked the hits I shot at him. But the arena is too big to actually fight him with hands. Let's make it smaller. I Waterbended a wall around him and made it ice. It wasn't high, but too high for him to escape. And a very thick wall. I walked to it and got a bit lower so I could go in, I got the wall back up and could hear that the audience was surprised of my actions. I walked to him and he couldn't escape anymore, he didn't have space for that. "Stop avoiding to fight and be a man, old man." I said and grabbed his arm and put it behind his back, I got him to the ground and got one knee on his back. "You won't win, so stop trying to escape." I said noticing that he was trying to escape. I sat on his back with my full body and cross-legged, I got the walls back to being the ground and smirked. "No chance of winning now, isn't there?" I asked and he groaned. I noticed that he was holding a knife and stole it. "There are for sure no knives allowed ever since 150 years ago in an Agni Kai. Cheater." I spat at him, sliding the knife to the side. "Shouldn't the bell ring already? I've won." I asked the one who can control that. "An Agni Kai is a life or death duel, none of you is dead yet." He said and I groaned. "I'm not gonna kill him, and me was told that this Agni Kai wouldn't be a life or death duel. Besides, he had a knife and that isn't allowed since 150 years ago. So he should be disqualified anyways." I said standing up and walking to that guy. I could hear the head behind me coming to me and felt I foot at my foot. It wasn't mine for sure. I fell down being floored by him and stood up again. "Landing on ice is more painful than it looks like. Besides, I've already won." I said and kicked the head to the side and pinned him with ice. If he can escape now I don't know anymore. "Can't you understand that he already won? This is exactly why an Agni Kai should be ruled by the Fire Nation. The makers of it." Yoongi said coming to that guy and hitting his head. "Alright, he won. Just don't hit my head anymore." He said and rang the bell signing that I won, in the meantime he was rubbing his head. Getting hit by Yunki seriously hurts and gives bruises fastly. I got out of the ring and Jimin hugged me. "You just saved mostly my future, but also that of my Tribe. Thanks." Jimin whispered and backed away, going to the head with a smirk. "Seems like you listened to our training, Jungkook." Yoongi said and I nodded. "I remembered it when I started to get tired of fighting. And I'm just happy that you told me back then, otherwise Jimin would be in jail. I'd be defeated and the Tribe would have to stay like this." I said and he nodded. "You did save the whole Tribe from that head. But we still don't have a Southern Waterbending scroll." Jin said and I nodded and sighed. "The guy Jimin told us doesn't have any scrolls anymore. And I have no idea where to get one." Yoongi said and me and Jin nodded. "Guys, look what I found!" Tae said and showed a Southern Waterbending style scroll. "You stole it didn't you?" Yoongi asked and Tae shrugged. "I didn't really steal it, but I also didn't buy it. I may have used my popularity here to get it. But that doesn't matter, at least we got it now." He said and Jin and Yoongi facepalmed. "That's still basically stealing, but I guess it's okay as you can't return it?" I said getting the scroll out of Tae's hand and putting it in my little bag. In the meantime I was also sneaking away from there so not a single citizen would notice. Half an hour later everything with the head and the Tribe's future was settled and we were on the ship again. We just had dinner with Jimin's parents because they wanted us to have dinner there. It was already dark and we only now sailed off back to Sea and on our way to Omashu. For real this time.
