Chapter XIII: The Firebending masters

The sun rose, a new day began in the Western Air Temple and a different day for some. That morning, Aang and Zuko went to a platform located some far away from the rest of the Avatar team after having a quick breakfast, the young Avatar simply followed him without hesitating and now he was there with Zuko, scared and anxious, he would finally learn firebending, an element that (according to him) was so dangerous that he had promised himself that he would never learn again a few months ago, but now things were different and he had Zuko by his side to teach him how to do firebending without take the risk of hurting someone again.

Before start with the training, Zuko tried to reassure him by telling him that firebending was not something to fear if you used it correctly but that he had to learn to respect it or he could lose control, Aang recalled the moment when he hurt Katara practicing firebending with Jeong Jeong.

"Now, show me what you have. Control as much fire as you can" Zuko said looking at Aang with soft eyes, Aang felt uncomfortable for a moment; however, that look managed to comfort him or at least that's what he felt until Zuko shook his head slightly out of his trance and calmed down. Aang took a deep breath, closed his eyes and rolled his hips, reaching out but all he got for his effort was a cloud of smoke. He blushed and looked shyly at his firebender before turning his gaze away, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Maybe I need a little more instruction, a demonstration, maybe? He murmured looking hopefully at his attractive firebending teacher... wait what? where did that thought come from? instead of getting mad at him, Zuko seemed to understand what Aang wanted to tell him and agreed saying it was a good idea.

"You may want to take a couple of steps back," said the prince, took a deep breath, positioned his body and stretched out his hands, growling as he prepared to perform a firebending attack.

PUFF

Aang wanted to laugh at such poor performance, maybe Zuko was playing a joke on him because, if he had to be honest with him, that was a very weak flame or maybe he was teaching him that it was okay to have weak fire and that it was not great problem.

"What was that? that's the worst firebending I've ever seen" Zuko muttered to himself and Aang got the distinct impression that it had not been a joke at all.

"I think that was... nice" the airbender commented a bit worried but he tried to stay positive. Zuko tried again and again getting the same result, the prince was upset and Aang did not like that, if only he could do something to help him but what could he do? He did not know firebending and he could not find an adequate solution to Zuko's problem whatever it was.

"Why is this happening to me?" Zuko asked angrily looking at his hands, Aang also looked at his hands, his hands were callused and rough, he began to wonder how those hands would feel exploring his body, sliding his fingers through his abdomen and navel, skimming all the way down, touching areas that not even the young Avatar knew he had before. He blushed heavily and shook his head a little just that that erotic fantasy disappeared as soon as it arrived.

"Maybe it's the altitude?" Aang suggested hoping to cheer Zuko up, but that didn't help much because the only logical answer he had was that Zuko could no longer do firebending, which implied that he no longer had a master to teach you to control this element.

It happened a while where Zuko tried to firebending without success, he started to get a little annoyed because nothing had happened during that period of time and Aang was starting to get bored.

"That one felt kinda hot" the young airbender commented.

"Don't patronize me, you have no idea how it's supposed to be" Zuko replied annoyed.
