Third POV

Azula and her troops arrived at the fire nation. At the opposite side of where her and her troops are, the fire nation soldiers were rallied. She knows that she didn't need to create an entire force of dragons as just by unleashing her virus, the entire fire nation kingdom will cease to exist, but what she wants is an entire genocide right now. She wanted to leave her brother a kingdom to rule and find happiness and for that she used another plan which is I still fear to the fire nation army.

She gave the signal to attack and the entire dragons flew and started massacring the soldiers. She switched into her Queen of Blades form and flew to the sky. She started attacking the soldiers from the air using lightning. The enemies seeing how easily it was for them to be killed off, started losing their morality.

"This is impossible. What has happened to azula?" Asked Ozai to himself. He couldn't believe what he is seeing. The war has only started and he's already missing 20% of his troops. In his rage, he signaled for the ships to start their bombardment. The ships loaded with cannons fired away at the dragons hoping that it'll kill those beasts.

Azula seeing what's happening smirked. She looked at the incoming cannonballs and spread her arms out. She closed her eyes and concentrated. A powerful force started accumulating around her that even rocks started floating from the ground. She opened her eyes and no pupils can be seen. Her entire eyes are covered in electric blue hue with sparks of black leaving it. The incoming cannon balls stop mid air and azula sent them back to the battleships it came from. Over 10,000 battle ships were destroyed just like that. Even though the power of the cannons weren't that devastating, azula used her chi and powered the cannonballs before sending it back towards the battleships.

When the fire lord saw all this, he couldn't help but feel fear creeping in his heart. He stressed at azula and anger once again clouded his mind. He wanted to do so many things. He wanted to conquer the world. To be it's only ruler. To end the cycle of the avatar and to not fear them anymore. However, he can't even conquer his own family. He didn't even realize the power his daughter held. He's not even sure of what his daughter is anymore. He's scared of her more than he'll ever be scared of the avatar. He knows. At least the avatar, most of the time, would rather end the battle peacefully rather than drastically. But his daughter. His daughter is a monster.

Looking at his daughter, he knows he has no chance. But even so, he still dared to attack her once more. Azula saw her father staring at her with rage and smirked. She flew down and landed on the ground. "You must've been surprised to see me looking like this weren't you father." She said provokingly to her father. "I'm actually kind of thankful of you to show me your true intentions while I was still young. At least I grew up faster that way rather than grow close to you and end up having to doubt myself because of you. So thank you." She said, mocking Ozai again.

"What are you. Who are you. You're no daughter of mine. You're a monster." Ozai spoke with fear. He can feel the power radiating from his daughter and his instincts are telling him to run away. To never face this entity. But he couldn't do it. He knows it. As soon as he turns around, only death awaits him.

"I am the same daughter you wanted to manipulate. Only, you failed and in my adventures, I learned things you can only dream of. Now I'm back, and I'm taking you down. Only when you're gone that my brother can start his own journey."

Saying this, azula started walking slowly. She increased her pressure which made all the enemies around kneel down. Nobody from the enemy side could move. Even Ozai was rooted down. Azula stood in front of the kneeling Ozai and grabbed his head and lifted him up. She slowly floated to the sky and once they are 10 meters above ground, her eyes went electric blue once more and she willed for the lightning to start coursing inside Ozai. Ozai started convulsing and screamed in the process.

Everyone hearing Ozai scream felt shivers down their spine. Dying through electrocution seems fast from an outsiders point of view, but for the one getting electrocuted, in seems like time has slowed down and the pain was unbearable. Soon Ozai's screams died down and azula let go of his body. The fire lord plummet down to the ground while azula slowly floated down once again.

"To all of you here. The dragons weren't really needed. Just me alone is enough to destroy the entire 4 nations combined. The sun tribe here didn't even join the fight. My troops are here just so you know my power. Whoever thinks of going against me, make sure you know how to hide well. Because if you don't, well I can only say that your fate will be much worse than my father's."

The fire nation troops heard it and looked at the dragons still in the air. Not even a single one of those dragons were killed. The cannonballs weren't even able to reach the dragons before azula threw them back to the battleships destroying all of it in the process. They know that even if azula didn't interfere, just the dragons alone is enough to decimate the entire navy armada and the army. Then they also had to worry about the sun tribe behind azula. The sun tribe who uses ancient fire bending taught by the dragons.

Seeing all of these things, the entire fire army decided to surrender. Azula stares at them before look back to her brother. She went where he is and changed back to her regular form. "Now that that's done, you'll be the new Fire Lord. I will be leaving and I might never return. You and uncle are the only family I've ever so I'm willing to offer you both something. However, only you both and your offsprings can have this ability. However, you will have a reduced chance of reproducing an offspring because of this ability." She said using her telepathy. She didn't want other people hearing what she's saying to her only family.

Zuko and iroh, hearing what she said, decided to ask first what she's giving them and then decide next whether they want it or not. "I'm giving you the chance to be an immortal. You see, my virus, evolves everyday. It will always be in a healthy status no matter what happens. It eats away the bad cells inside your body that can cause diseases. It will always produce new and young cells which will help you not age after your adulthood, and because of this you'll be an immortal. It also happened that the virus I have came from the dragon god of infinity itself so unless the dragon god dies, the virus will never die, only be sealed. Now do you want this gift or not is totally up to you. The only reason I want you guys to have this is because I want to have a home to go back to once I'm finished with my mission."

"Also, even if someone tries to take your blood, they will never be able to get anything out of it. The only way you'll ever die is if you are obliterated entirely which is highly unlikely because of the high regeneration effect of the virus. And if ever your main body gets obliterated, as long as you have a drop of blood stored somewhere, you'll regenerate from that blood again."

The two men hearing all of what azula said looked at each other before zuko nodded. "Yes Lala. I'll accept immortality. Even if I can't share this gift to my future love ones, my offsprings will carry it. I also want to be there for when you return. I don't ever want to be gone when the time has come and you've finished your mission." Zuko said with warmth. He knows that he wouldn't be able to help his sister but at least he'll be there whenever azula decides that she needed to rest. "I will accept it too. I need to be there for when this nephew of mine becomes irrational. There should be someone to stop him from being to prideful. Hahaha." Iroh teasingly said making the new fire lord blush hard.

Azula saw all these and held both of the men's hand and started infusing them with the virus. The change won't happen instantly so that it won't cause panic to other people but overnight, Iroh will start looking young again. After doing all that, Zuko commanded everyone to go back to the palace and to prepare for a feast. The entire sun tribe decided to joints well. Azula told everyone that she's going back to the sun tribe island to turn the entire place into a dragon island. She asked them to finish all the preparations without her and that she'll be following them back after she's done with the dragons.

She made her way to the island and decided rebuild the sun tribe temple and palace. Using her chi, the ruins started floating in the air and rebuilding itself. Her control over her chi has been greatly increased ever since her connection with orphis was made. This allowed her to be able to bend all the elemental energies around her with just her thoughts. Soon the entire island was rebuilt and she made a mountain and a cave inside that mountain for the dragons to live. The mountain was huge enough to fit the entire Easter flood dragons inside and for their offsprings.

Finished with everything, she decided to head back to the fire nation palace. There, she saw the busy people preparing for the feast. The entire fire nation is bustling with activities. The people of fire nation started feeling a bit better now that the fire nation's previous fire lord was dead. Even though they are citizens of fire nation, they also felt the suppression of the fire lord. Some of them had friends in the other nation and they couldn't help but rejoice now that they would be able to visit their friends again. Azula just went to her previous room and decided to rest. Even though she doesn't need sleep, she still decided to do it as she misses how it feels to not think about anything once more. Zuko seeing his sister sleeping soundly couldn't help but smile once more. He covered her up with blanket and left the room.
