Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: The Moon Returns!

[A few minutes before...]

Boom!

"Tch! These Fire Nation bastards!" Pakku screamed as he speared a Fire Nation soldier in the chest with an ice spike. Around him, a bunch of Fire Nation soldiers and Northern water tribe people were fighting.

The soldiers from the black Ships sailing towards the tribe rushed down onto the ice, swords in hand and jabbing the air, sending balls of hot fire towards anyone they saw.

"Keep going! Keep attacking them!" Zhao screamed with a massive grin on his face. Besides him, a tall man with metal body parts. A bald man with an eye tattoo on the forehead stood silently.

Suddenly, the eye on his forehead throbbed, and an invisible beam was shot towards the ground. Once the beam struck the ground, an explosion rocked the place, making a massive crater in the ice.

Anyone caught in the explosion was ripped apart by the strong shockwaves, and the ones further away coughed up blood, their organs displaced by the shockwave.

"Sparky Sparky Boom Man! Come with me, and kill anyone who manages to come near me!" Zhao commanded, and the Sparky Booom Man nodded. He was being paid for it, after all.

Azula had hired him to attack the Northern water tribe with Zhao. And Zhao, of course, could not refuse, unless he wanted to be killed by Azula, who has no mercy even if he is a firebender.

Zhao, along with an elite guard of firebenders under him and with the help of Sparky Boom Man, easily made it to the place of the moon spirit. The waterbenders tried to stop him, but Boom Man easily defeated them with explosions.

[The Spirit Oasis...]

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"I finally did it! I killed the moon spirit! No more waterbenders, no more resistance! My name will ring throughout the world, who made an entire element extinct!" Zhao screamed madly.

In the spirit pond, Tui was floating on the surface, her skin charred and dark as if a fireball struck her mere seconds ago. As Zhao was celebrating his victory, Yue, along with her father, Arnook, and Pakku, rushed inside.

"Noooo! What have you done, you psychopath! You have created an imbalance in the world, and the consequences are not something we could handle!" Arnook shouted in pain, kneeling beside the pool.

Yue was shaking, her eyes on Tui while La was nodding the spirit's dead body in the pond. Pakku, standing aside with anger, suddenly became calm, his eyes open and dull.

Pakku walked into the pool, and Zhao grinned, thinking that the waterbedner was trying to drown himself. Pakku sank into the water, and the pool began to glow.

"Huh? What is happening! I killed the moon spirit. Nothing should be happening right now!" Zhao screamed, and the Sparky Boom Man beside him narrowed his eyes. The eye on his forehead gleamed, ready to fight.

Boom!

A massive wave of water surged out from the pool. It slammed into Zhao, the soldiers and the Boom Man. They were sent flying into the wall, cracking it, and their bodies were crushed against it.

The water started to gather into a large kaiju-like water monster, glowing. Pakku was in the middle, controlling it as La struck Zhao and Boom Man hard enough to kill them on the spot.

The bones inside their bodies broke, and the blood inside their bodies turned into hard spikes, piercing their bodies and killing them on the spot like they were bugs, which they were.

Boom!

Lightning crackled in the sky as the massive kaiju-like beast flowed without legs, crushing any fire nation soldiers it saw along the way. It continued until it stood in the ocean itself.

Swoosh!

The water rose upwards like a dragon, and a tsunami large enough to eclipse a city pushed the Ships back, destroying anything and anyone in the way. The tsuanmi continued moving for thousands of meters before dissipating into a gentle wave.

But this gentle wave had killed hundreds and sunk a dozen Ships. The kaiju turned around, the waterbenders prowling and kneeling as La passed them by.

Inside the oasis, Yue kneeled next to the moon spirit's body, and she sighed as she looked up at the sky. Arnook clenched his fist, his chest in pain as he knew what she was thinking.

"Yue... I will not tell you to do it, but I will not tell you not to... I am going to give this choice to you, choose as you see fit," Arnook muttered, his hand resting on her shoulder.

"Dad... It's fine, I will do it," Yue placed her hands on the moon spirit's body, right as La returned into the oasis, letting an unconscious Pakku gently drop onto the ground.

"Goodbye... Dad," Yue muttered, closing her eyes as a single tear fell from her cheek.

[Norrak...]

Boom!

The entire hotel exploded, a massive wave of flames tens of meters long exploding out from the rubble. Norrak groaned in pain, his Chi coming out to block the fire.

But the heat seeped through, and it burned his hands. His figure blurred, vanishing before appearing beside Azula. His foot struck out, and Azula groaned as she was kicked through the walls into a building.

Katara, a bit further away, was also fighting against Mai and Ty Lee, more so Mai, as Ty Lee was jumping and avoiding her attacks. Mai groaned, a finger hitting her in the stomach.

Katara's Chi entered her body, a nd it exploded, creating a bruise and a shockwave that was enough to instantly bruise her. Katara reached for Mai's hand, and she pushed her back before pulling her hand towards her.

Pop!

The sound of Mai's grunt and her shoulder popping out of its socket was loud. She jumped back, clutching her shoulder in pain before pushing her shoulder back into its socket.

Boom!

Azula shot towards Norrak, a grin on her face as she spun like a tornado, a jet of blue fire shooting from her heel. Norrak blocked it, and he slammed her into the ground, causing a crack and a shockwave that sent Azula stumbling.

"Bastard! It looks like even without your bending, you are strong enough to give me a good challenge~," Azula said, standing on her feet as she circled Norrak.

"What is the reason for this?" Norrak asked without a hint of worry. He might not be as strong as before, but he could still fly away with Katara using his Chi to fly.

"Well, if you must know. Now that your bending is gone, I suppose I shall tell you. I am in line to inherit the throne of the Fire Nation, and I will be its queen," Azula said matter-of-factly, not knowing that Ozai would rather kill her than give her the throne.

"And a queen such as myself deserves a worthy king by my side. Come, be my husband, and I will allow you to rule with me," Azula said, causing everyone to stop and stare at her.

Norrak stared at Azula with a mile, when he suddenly felt his spirit change. His bending returned!

Suddenly, the dark sky returned to its morning blue light. Norrak took a deep breath, feeling his connection to the water element reconnect. Katara was the same, her eyes lighting with confidence now.

"Now, I will beat some sense into you, something your father or mother never did," Norrak said, walking towards Azula.

"Maybe after this, you will understand that you are a mere puppet, starved for some love, something neither of your parents gave you." Azula looked at the sky in shock and anger.

"Insolent fool!"

Good save from Yue, but that sadly means she will not be in the harem... Not that I care. I never liked her character. Yes, sue me!
