The sky had turned red, the light from the comet illuminating your face as you looked around.
"Zuko, don't worry." Katara said quietly. "We can take Azula."
"I'm not worried about her. I'm worried about Aang. What if he doesn't have the guts to take out my father?" He asked.
You looked over at him, seeing that you weren't the only one with your hair whipping you in the face.
Zuko stared at Katara seriously. "What if he loses?"
"Aang won't lose." She denied firmly. "Aang's going to come back. He has to." She muttered, looking forward.
You turned back towards the sky.

"By decree of Phoenix King Ozai, I now crown you Firelord-" The man stopped, seeing Appa come into view.
Azula turned around, facing the man. "What are you waiting for? Do it." She turned back around, seeing Appa land.
Zuko stood. "Sorry. But you're not going to become Firelord today." He jumped off, landing on the ground. "I am."
Azula laughed. "You're hilarious."
You and Katara slid off Appa, standing on either side of Zuko.
"You're going down." Katara told her.
Azula's eyes landed on you.
Your eyes narrowed and you saw her expression shift slightly.
The man moved to place the crown on Azula's head.
She held up a hand. "Wait." She instructed, looking back at Zuko. She stood. "You want to be Firelord? Fine. Let's settle this. Just you and me, brother. The showdown that was always meant to be: Agni Kai."
Zuko grit his teeth. "You're on."
You and Katara's heads snapped towards him.
"What are you doing?" Katara hissed. "She's playing you. She knows she can't take us all, so she's trying to separate us."
"I know. But I can take her this time."
"But even you admitted to your Uncle that you would need help facing Azula."
You glanced back over at Azula, seeing her smirk as she watched Zuko.
"There's something off about her." Zuko remarked. "I can't explain it, but she's slipping." He looked over at Katara. "And this way, no one else has to get hurt."

Zuko and Azula both kneeled on opposite ends of the courtyard, backs facing each other.
They stood, facing each other.
Azula pulled her cloak off, revealing her armor underneath as she dropped it. "I'm sorry it has to end this way, brother."
Zuko held his hands up, ready for a battle. "No you're not."
Azula struck first, her blue fire filling your vision with the help of the comet.
Zuko took a small leap forward, drawing his own fire and clashing it against her blue.
The fires connected, creating a large wall of flame.
