Zuko Hong Li (sorry about the horrible surnames, I'm not super creative) never had the best life, unlike his sister. One day, the whole world as he knew it changed. He had a secret, something no one was supposed to find out, but, of course, his father did. After his father burned to disfigurement, 13-year-old Zuko is taken in by his uncle Iroh in Ba Sing Se. He is then homeschooled for 3 years, barely communicating with anyone outside for customers at the tea shop and Uncle. Until he pushes Zuko back to school school. So they choose one. Ba Sing Se Academy. That's where Zuko found it all. Friends, real friends. And a particular person with a ponytail whom Zuko feels particularly attracted to... But what about Azula? Now, people, THE CHARACTERS ARE NOT MINE EXCEPT FOR THE ONES THAT ARE NEITHER MENTIONED NOR HAD SHOW UP IN AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER!!!!!
