A Zuko X Reader story.
As always, I wrote this for myself but you can read it, too, if you'd like.
Captain Y/N was a fire bender in the Fire Nation's army, well acquainted with the royal family. She had not seen Prince Zuko since his banishment but their paths cross when the fire prince is searching for the avatar in the Earth Kingdom colonies.
With the war at it's peak, can either of them find it in them to go against everything they've ever known?

The Lady Xia
Living the disgrace of her grandfather, Xia's parents send her to the Fire Nation Captial to try to win favor with the Fire Lord. Little Xia is meant as the most recent playmate for Princess Azula, a very dangerous job. However, Xia matched Azula in her Firebending abilities, and the two become friendly rivals. Xia became famous for her yellow fire, not nearly as dangerously hot as Azula's blue fire, but a warmth that fuels Xia's will. Though Xia was close friends with Azula, Mai, and Ty Lee, she volunteered to accompany Zuko and Iroh on their hunt to find the Avatar. Calm and patient Xia became Zuko's new sparring partner, and Iroh's favorite Pai Sho challenger. "How can you be drinking tea at a time like this?!" Zuko demanded. I looked at him as if surprised by his stupidity, "because I do not particularly like cold tea." A laugh followed my statement and we both turned to Iroh, "you see, Prince Zuko. Xia knows that there are times to march forward, but there are also times to take a step back." "What does that even mean?" Zuko asked furiously. "It means that I take time to think," I replied gently. "Now, why don't we go and continue your quest for the Avatar?" *I update by book. So the first thirteen chapters are book one. Updates are very slow, but over ten chapters at a time.Complete

Water Lily in a Sea of Fire
Years before the Siege of Ba Sing Se, General Iroh discovers a young girl among the remains of a decimated Water Tribe village. Raised in the heart of the Fire Nation, she grows close to the young crown prince and accompanies him and Iroh on their adventures. ________________________________________________________________________________ **This is an old story I had written in my head years ago when the series was still on Nickelodeon, and most of what I had originally written out was dialogue, so I apologize for any lack of detail or imagery-I don't have much time to devote to it as I'd like. I've read quite a few fanfic stories out there and this one isn't very good in comparison, but I'll post it for others who might find it entertaining--it was certainly entertaining to write. Also, I understand a lot of readers don't like stories that follow canon. This one does follow the show for the most part, but eventually digresses, follows, and digresses again. Disclaimer: I own nothing of the world of ATLA, although a few characters were seriously harmed (or killed) in the imagining of this fictional story.Complete

Torn Heart (Zuko x Reader)
Y/N has been on the adventure of a lifetime traveling with Avatar Aang and their other friends. She knows this is exactly where she needs to be and the side she needs to be on. That is, before a terrible accident separates her from her friends and throws her together with Prince Zuko, the Fire Lords exiled son. Now the two have to rely on each other and Y/N finds herself drawn to Zuko. But the Prince has secrets-and his secrets have secrets-and she'll soon find herself pulled in two directions by a lovesick, torn heart. This is my first x Reader fanfiction so please be kind. Ngl, this is sort of a self-insert that I wrote for my own entertainment, but maybe you'll enjoy it too. It very loosely follows the show starting near the beginning of Book 2, but everyone is in their late teens/early twenties-or they can be whatever age you decide too. Cursing and mild sexual content. I don't own any characters except Y/N and any other minor OCs. Everyone else is from Avatar the Last Airbender which I don't own at all (sadly)Complete
