407. Tea Friends

*YAWN*

Alexander looked around to see if there was anyone else in the jail cell.

"Dobby? They caught you too?" Alexander saw his giant friend in the cell across from him. He was tied with lots of chains.

"I don't know boss. Never thought I would see a being like you chained up like this," Dobby jokingly replied.

"Ah, you know it, Dobby. We did it voluntarily. Besides, I have no control over the memory. They are like ultra-realistic movies for me. Most of the time they are absurd but I can only accept them. Though the good thing is I have a close relationship with all Avatars and was able to help so many people.

"Now that we are physically here, our work starts. Oh, look, someone's coming," Alexander babbled.

Soon an old man came to Alexander and opened the cell's gate with keys, "Forgive me, my friend. My nephew has very bad control over his anger."

"Haha, it's all fine, Iroh, young men tend to be full of themselves. He's a cocoon right now, someday he will become a butterfly," Alexander said jokingly.

Iroh laughed, "Hahaha, I just imagined Zuko as a giant butterfly."

He then freed Dobby, "Let's go, my friends, let's play Pai Sho over some warm tea."

"Ah, I could use some tea," Dobby agreed.

Alexander then put his hand in his pocket and took out a very nicely packed bag, "I got some exotic tea, Iroh. Let's drink this, you will love it."

"Oh, new tea? I have never seen this before." Iroh exclaimed.

"You won't know unless you try it," Alexander said.

Soon the three sat on the deck of the ship, drinking and playing Pai Sho, much to the annoyance of Zuko.

"Where are we headed to, Iroh?" Alexander asked.

"We are going to the icy northern water tribe. My nephew here wants to catch the Avatar there." Iroh answered.

Dobby scoffed, "Since when did people start catching Avatar. Isn't he meant to be the key to the balance of the world?"

"My nephew has a strange obsession over catching him after he was banished. He needs to catch Avatar in order to return home." Iroh explained.

Zuko quickly came to Iroh angrily, "Uncle, don't reveal everything to strangers."

"Oh, they aren't strangers, nephew, we drank tea together and that makes us friends," Iroh heartily replied.

Zuko ignored Iroh and looked at Alexander, "When will you leave my ship? We are overusing our resources on you two."

"Haha, you don't need to worry about me, kid. I will catch some fish. About where I want to go. I will deboard in Northern Water Tribe, always wanted to see their icy city." Alexander said.

Zuko realizing that Alexander won't leave his ship, he went to his room in a foul mood.

"Your nephew has too much rage in him," Dobby spoke.

"Yes, but he wasn't always like this. He used to be a good kid when he was small. But since his mother disappeared he changed." Iroh revealed.

"Well, bad experiences sometimes make good men too. He just needs support. Anyway, I will go and catch some fish." Alexander said and went to the edge of the ship with Dobby.

"What's the plan boss?" Dobby asked.

"Well, this world is fairly simple. Fire Nation is the big bully and Avatar is supposed to be the protagonist of the story. We will just make this whole process less violent." Alexander answered.

Dobby nodded, "Yes, but if Iroh had taken his rightful place as the Fire Lord, things would have never gotten like this. The man has a beautiful mind and heart."

"Haha, don't turn on me now, Dobby. I told you I will find a beautiful elf wife for you later. Don't improvise and settle with Iroh." He joked.

"Heh, I'm fine, boss. You should worry about the old lizard first." Dobby replied.

*BEEP BEEP*

Alexander took out his phone and checked the message, "Ah, Blue Fang wants to take Haku out for a field trip. He's stronger than anyone on this planet, I think it will be fine."

He typed the message and told him the necessary things he'd need to bring with him. People mostly had nothing to do in Phixheim. Michael trained with Douglas. Douglas was also slowly reaching the power level of an archangel. Hats was helping Olivia with everyday things. He was really tamed by her.

"OH, I caught something. It's time to eat," he said and pulled out the fish. But that was just for the show. Alexander had stopped hunting animals for meat as he had meat trees in Phixheim. But he couldn't tell everyone about it. So he puts on a show before releasing the animal and showing the meat from Phixheim.

"*Sigh* Another world, another war. This is always the story." Dobby sighed.

"This just goes on to show you that even if you cross dimensions and go to different universes. The nature of humans remains the same. Let's not be emo now, we will be making this world a better place soon." He cheered the big elf and went to cook the fish.

He set up a small fire on the deck and started cooking. Soon he was joined by Iroh and a few more men who started singing and dancing.

"So, tell me about your family, Iroh. You haven't talked about them." Alexander asked.

Iroh's face turned sad. "This war sadly also consumed my only son years ago."

Alexander lightly patted his shoulder, "I can feel your pain. But as long as he is not forgotten, he is alive inside you. Who knows, maybe someday you will get to see him again in the spirit world."

Iroh smiled, "That's the plan, in the long term. But I did venture into the spirit realm once, it is not an easy place to be for a mortal."

While they were eating a guest appeared on the ship. It was General Zhao. Who wanted to take the ship and men away from Zuko to use them in the assault on the Northern Water capital.

Iroh worriedly looked at Alexander, "This may be a bit problematic. You should eat, I will join you later."

Alexander, on the other hand, had a different plan. He was already near the shores of the Northern water tribe so he decided to leave now.

The moment he was left alone he flew away with Dobby. The whole land was covered in icy sheets. He even saw small penguins.

"This world is quite small, boss," Dobby deduced.

"Yeah, I feel that too. I guess the whole planet is small." Alexander hypothesized.

After flying for a while they reached the Northern Water Capital. The whole city was carved out of the ice and had many waterways. It was certainly beautiful but also chilling for normal people.

*Pop*

"Hey, Alex, wanna drink with me?" Ragnarok appeared out of Phixheim. He was wearing red and golden clothes that made him look like some royalty.

"Haha, I don't have time but you should tag along with me. I'm pretty sure you can pass as an extremely strong fire bender." Alexander said.

"Haa? What the hell is that?" Ragnarok asked.

"The ability to create fire. There is a whole country in the world where a lot of people are able to do that." Alexander explained.

"Haha, then I will become its king. Point me in its direction, Alex," Ragnarok brashly claimed.

"No, we are not here to make you king this time. Sure, you can show yourself maybe as a fire bending god but not the king as I already have a candidate in mind." He clarified.

"Argh, all right then. I guess it will be fun." Ragnarok muttered and started drinking from the bottle.

Alexander went in to see where Avatar was and see his progress. Him, Ragnarok, and Dobby's height, features, and a dress made them stand out a lot and gain the attention of the guards.

The guards came to question them but by the time they could say anything the war drums started sounding around the city, signifying an attack.

"*Sigh* I guess we will be going to this war first and making sure no innocent loss of life occurs." He decided.

They flew to the outer gates of the capital where the Fire navy had gathered with their machines and men. A battle had already started among them.

From the air, Alexander looked at a large number of ships in the distance. He just waved his hand once horizontally towards the ships.

*BOOOM*

The next moment, all the ships got split in two, with loud explosions.

On the land, the Fire navy was taken aback by the sudden turn of events. Nobody knew what happened. But that moment was enough for the water tribe to charge ahead and take the upper hand.
