Nearing the End

"… I see."

Sitting on his throne, Zuko stares out at the two people before him. It's only the three of them in the throne room. His mother and uncle kneel on the floor at the foot of the dais, having just told Zuko… everything. Well, everything to do with his great-grandfather and the previous Avatar, anyways. Zuko's lips are thin as he regards Ursa and Iroh in silence.

He loves his mother, and he's always been fond of his uncle. Iroh was a good man, even if his son's death had broken him and given Zuko's own father cause to believe that he could steal the throne out from under his older brother. In the end, it didn't need to be stolen, obviously. Zuko's own ascension to the position of Fire Lord without contest from the older man made it clear Iroh didn't want to sit where he sat.

But, it seemed, Iroh still wanted to advise him. It was his uncle that had called this meeting, it was his uncle that had done the lion's share of the talking, though Ursa had backed him up on some things, confirming what she knew of what Iroh was saying. The story of Avatar Roku and Fire Lord Sozin… it was a tragedy, through and through.

Brow furrowed, Zuko lets out a low sigh and spreads his hands apart.

"What would you have me do then?"

If the purpose of this was to convince Zuko to stop his plans, to pull back and leave the rest of the world to suffer while the Fire Nation continued to prosper… then Iroh had another thing coming to him. Still, Zuko would hear his uncle out. The older man deserved that much at least. Seeming almost startled by the question, Iroh blinks for a moment before bowing his head.

"… You have already done much to correct the mistakes of your predecessors, Fire Lord Zuko. And… this war has gone on too long, destabilized too much. With the end of it all in sight, I do not recommend you stop now. I merely wished for you to know your history, to know what happened between Roku and Sozin… and allow it to inform you in your future decisions, to ensure that you maintain a just rule."

His uncle was ever the diplomat. Zuko can't help but smile slightly at that, because even if Iroh was a bit of a… dreamer, he could still see the wisdom in the older man's words. Inclining his head acknowledgment, the young Fire Lord clears his throat.

"I will take what you have said into consideration uncle, mother. Now, please leave me."

The two of them depart, exiting the throne room and leaving Zuko alone with nothing but his own thoughts to keep him company. It was intriguing to learn the true history behind his great-grandfather and the previous Avatar. Like Zuko, Sozin had seen an opportunity to make the world a better place, to spread the prosperity of the Fire Nation across the lands. But Roku had stopped him, brutally so if Iroh was to be believed. The Avatar had come into Sozin's home, stormed his throne room, and forced him to submit.

That wasn't what the Avatar was supposed to do, not what the Avatar was supposed to BE. From what Zuko had read, the Avatar was meant to be the human embodiment of peace and harmony. The Avatar was no king, no emperor… no lord. In the end, the Avatar was simply a man or woman… and perhaps that was the problem. The spirits of the world gave the Avatar too much power. So that they could do what? Keep the balance? Maintain age-old traditions?

Zuko finds himself sneering at the idea. The young Fire Lord had always hated the idea of tradition. He'd bucked it at every turn, had he not? This was just another case of him seeing tradition before him. Some might say this could not be changed. Some might say that the Avatar protecting the balance of the world was set in stone… but if that were the case, Zuko knew what he had to do. He simply had to break the stone.

Even as he ponders Roku and Sozin's actions, Zuko can see where both fucked up. Roku… Roku went too far. He'd been so hellbent on keeping the balance, on maintaining the status quo, that he'd reacted poorly to Sozin's plans, rather than doing what he should have done all along… worked right alongside Sozin. Oh sure, given that Zuko had a hundred years of war to tell him how Sozin's plans had truly worked out, he recognized that his great-grandfather and his grandfather after him were both warmongers. His own father was one as well. There was no escaping that fact… but there might have been, all that time ago.

What if Roku had stood by his old friend, rather than shun his ideas, rather than force Sozin to submit through sheer force? What if he'd played the role that an Avatar SHOULD play, and advised Sozin? If he'd simply stayed at the Fire Lord's side, he could have worked with him to ensure that Sozin didn't go too far in his plans. He could have helped Sozin learn the value of his point of view, as opposed to laying down the law.

The law… pah! The Avatar had no authority in the Fire Nation, not anymore than they had authority in any of the other kingdoms and tribes of the world. They were not royalty; they were not nobility. Hell, the current Avatar was a monk! And what did the spirits that supposedly guided Aang and all the Avatars before her know about what the living needed?

History was important. Understanding the people that came before them and why they did the things they did… it was important. Zuko could acknowledge that. But progress could not be allowed to be hampered by something as base and infantile as tradition. The world needed to move forward. His great-grandfather might have started this war, but Zuko was finally going to end it. He was going to establish the Phoenix Empire; he was going to bring all the peoples of the world under his banner… and he was going to take them all with him as he rose to further and further heights.

Together, they would build a new, better world from the ashes of the old one. Together, they would grow beyond the need for the Avatar… at least in it's current form. The corner of Zuko's mouth quirks up a little at that. From what he knew, it would be difficult, convincing Aang of his point of view. After all, she had a thousand generations of spirits perverting her thoughts, telling her what to believe, telling her what they believed the world should be.

But Zuko wasn't doing all of this because it was easy. He was doing it because it was necessary. As his determination and resolve harden further, as he rids himself of any doubts he might have had, all the surer of what he has to do, the young Fire Lord slowly breathes out.

It was almost time… the Day of the Black Sun was just around the corner… and with it would come the invasion that Zuko already knew all of the ins and outs of. Beating back the Avatar and her allies would be the easy part… it was what would come after that would be difficult.

-x-X-x-

"Look, we can still… we can still turn this around."

"How?! The invasion was a total failure! I couldn't even get CLOSE To the Fire Lord!"

"Look, we clearly underestimated his defenses. His sister, even without firebending… she was stronger than we thought. But still, we-!"

"We what? All of our allies are prisoners now! The eclipse is past us, and now Sozin's Comet is coming around again! What can Aang do against all that?"

"Our plan is the same as before! We just need to get Aang trained up in all four elements. Once she's mastered them, then she can take on the Fire Lord regardless, comet or not comet!"

Well, if that wasn't an opportunity to interject, he didn't know what was.

"Or, you could join me."

Zuko smiles slightly as Team Avatar whirls on him, holding up his hands to show he meant no harm. Of course, at the same time that he was doing so, Kya's children, along with Avatar Aang, were all falling into combat stances. The only one to refrain from doing so was Toph, who stood there with her hands at her side, cocking her head as her blind eyes peered out sightlessly.

"… It's not use guys; he didn't come alone."

His smile grows wider at the Earthbender's observation. Toph's ability to 'see' the world in her own unique way was, in Zuko's humble opinion, simply amazing. He wanted that for his harem, he wanted that for his children and family. He'd already had Toph once… it shouldn't be difficult to have her again. And the next time they laid with one another, Zuko was going to make sure he impregnated her.

Regardless, when Toph announces that he didn't come alone, an entire contingent of Yuyan Archers make themselves known, dozens of them arrayed all along the balconies overhead. While not benders in their own right, there's no denying that they're some of Zuko's best fighters, some of his best soldiers. Still, neither they nor he came here to fight, and Zuko clears his throat before saying as much.

"We're not here to hurt you or capture you… any of you. I just want to talk. They're here to make sure no one does anything they regret."

When none of Team Avatar responds to that, Zuko's smile turns slightly sympathetic.

"I understand your emotions are probably running high. You had a plan to dethrone me… and it wasn't a half-bad plan either. However, you've learned a valuable lesson today. No plan survives contact with the enemy, and I made contact with YOUR plan months ago. I knew you were coming on the Day of the Black Sun. I was ready for you… in the end, you never had a chance."

He can tell that that's not really bringing any of them solace. There are grimaces on Sokka's and Katara's faces as they exchange a look at that, no doubt thinking about their recaptured father and all of the Southern Water Tribe's fighting men. Zuko almost wished that he'd been able to keep them apart from their father. The man wasn't a bad person or anything… but Kya had moved on from him. It would be harder now for her children to do the same when they'd seen him so recently.

Regardless, Zuko had to try.

"What did you think would happen, if you did manage to capture me? Where would you have taken me, I wonder? What were you hoping to gain?"

Team Avatar exchange more looks at that, and Zuko can see on their faces that they really don't have a good answer to that. Before they can come up with some half-baked reason, Zuko decides to enlighten them.

"If you had succeeded in taking me prisoner… nothing would have changed. Through my marriage with Yue, the Northern Water Tribe and the Fire Nation are allies. Through my conquest of Ba Sing Se and Omashu, the Earth Kingdoms have functionally ceased to exist. It was over before the Day of the Black Sun, long over. Even in my absence, my plans would have continued forward. My wife would have carried them out in my stead, if I were rendered incapable of doing so. Meanwhile, my sister and many others would have hunted you down to try and retrieve me."

Zuko cocks his head to the side and spreads his hands wide.

"Would you have killed me rather than letting them recover me, perhaps? Is that what your spirits have told you to do, Avatar?"

Aang looks incredibly discomforted by that, and Zuko has to wonder if the young woman HAS been told that his death is the only way to bring balance or something like that. He knows for a fact that the teachings of the Air Nomads would never counsel such a thing, that the way she was raised meant the female Avatar had a respect for ALL life. Even if it were his father, she was facing instead of him, she still probably wouldn't be capable of killing.

"If we took you, Yue wouldn't hold your shitty nation together! You're evil, and she's not!"

But of course, it wasn't just Zuko and Aang right now, it was Zuko, Aang… and the peanut gallery. The young Fire Lord turns his eyes towards Sokka, staring at the angry water tribe warrior. It was obvious that the young man was carrying a torch for the Water Tribe Princess, even now. Perhaps if Zuko was a different kind of man, this would have upset him… but truth be told, there were already plans in the far-flung future for one of Yue's children to come from Sokka. It was pretty far down the line, but it was still set to happen. Just as he eventually planned to have Sokka breed Suki as well. Far, far down the line.

Still, it was becoming obvious that they were just going to end up going around in circles here. Zuko could be a very patient man, but this close to so many plans coming to fruition, he found his patience wearing… thin. Letting out a long sigh, Zuko rolls a hand in the air.

"Let us put an end to this, shall we? I am sure you will not surrender to me here and now. That is fine. I am also sure that you could flee from here if you liked, escaping me and my Yuyan Archers. That is also fine, I did not come here to capture you, as I said. But… why don't we just cut out the middleman, yes? Rather than you running around trying to hunt down a firebender that isn't loyal to me in order to teach you Firebending, we can kill two birds with one stone."

Team Avatar glares at him suspiciously, sans Toph, but Zuko just smiles, spreading his hands apart again in peace.

"This war began more than a hundred years ago, when my great-grandfather Sozin had grand ideas about spreading the Fire Nation's prosperity to the rest of the world. His best friend, the Avatar Roku, had other ideas. This began with a fight between the Avatar and the Fire Lord… so let's end it with another, shall we?"

He could see the recognition in Aang's eyes that told him the female airbender had already been told at least some of what happened between Sozin and Roku. That was fine, Zuko had known he would have an uphill battle in front of him.

"… What exactly do you have in mind?"

As suspicious as they all were, Sokka seemed intrigued, at the very least. Zuko continues to direct his words towards the entire group though, with the lion's share of his attention focused on Aang, the young woman fidgeting under his gaze now.

"Simple. Aang and I will fight one another during Sozin's Comet. Before then, I promise to do my level best to help the Avatar master the art of firebending, so that she has all four elements to bring to bear against me during our duel… our Agni Kai, if you will. If you win, Aang, I will surrender to your wisdom. You may direct me as you see fit. If it is your will, I will dismantle my burgeoning empire, I will give sovereignty back to the Earth Kingdoms, hell, I'll even dissolve my marriage with Yue, if that is what you think best."

Zuko's eyes flash here.

"But if I win, you will join me at my side, as Roku SHOULD have done with Sozin all those decades ago. You will stand beside me as the Avatar, advising me and helping me to keep the peace in the new world that we will build together. You will have a place on my council, and a voice on my ear. But you will no longer attempt to wage war against me. You will not raise arms against my Phoenix Empire."

Once again, Zuko spreads his hands apart.

"These are my terms. Come with me not as my prisoners, but as my honored guests. Come back to the palace, where Katara and Sokka can be reunited with their mother, and Toph can be reunited with her parents. Allow me to train you in the art of firebending, and when the comet comes… we shall have our fight. Winner takes all."

"How can we possibly trust you?! This could all just be a trap to get us into your clutches once and for all!"

Sokka's outburst is not unexpected. Zuko grimaces, prepared to continue, but before he can reply, Toph quietly pipes up, the blind girl clearly discomfited by the idea that he has her parents waiting for her.

"He's not lying."

Sokka, Katara, and Aang all turn to the blind earthbender. Straightening her spine, squaring her shoulders, the girl who'd gone by the moniker of 'the Blind Bandit' juts out her chin.

"Not once this entire time has he lied to us. Everything he's said is either true… or he fully believes it to be true. In this, at least, we can trust him. He means every word."

He'd hoped that this would happen, but he hadn't bet on it. Still, having Toph vouch for him… it was exactly what he needed. Sokka and Katara both still seem utterly conflicted, on the one hand upset that their father had been recaptured so recently, but on the other hand, intrigued by the possibility of seeing their mother again.

In the end though, the one who had to be convinced was Aang.

"… Very well. I accept your wager, Fire Lord. You'll train me, you'll teach me how to firebend… and when the comet comes, we'll fight. One last battle, to end this stupid war."

Maybe calling it stupid was meant to get a rise out of Zuko or make him offended on his ancestor's behalf. But all the young Fire Lord does is smile at the female Avatar. His smile widens when Aang blushes and ducks her head.

All according to plan…

-x-X-x-

"Katara! Sokka!"

"Mom!"

"Mother!"

Zuko watches for only a moment as Kya and her children are finally reunited. He smiles softly as Katara and Sokka hug their mother, before swiftly beckoning Aang forward to meet her as well. However, he knows this isn't really his place. This sort of reunion… he's not exactly welcome here. Well, Kya would certainly enjoy his company, but she was probably the only one.

Besides, Zuko had other things to take care of. Placing a hand on the small of Toph's back, he quietly escorts the blind earthbender from the room without the rest of Team Avatar being any the wiser over it. Toph goes without protest or resistance of course, blushing a little as Zuko guides her down the hall.

"Is… is it true then? You have my parents?"

Zuko hums at that.

"Indeed. I met them as I traveled incognito in disguise on my way to Ba Sing Se… needless to say, I left quite the impression on your mother, even when I wasn't the Fire Lord. On my way back, I snatched them up. It was only right… after all, your mother is now carrying my child."

Toph's blush intensifies at that, and the blind girl is left sputtering, even as Zuko leads her into the room where her mother and father await them. Toph's father remains seated in a chair, knowing better than to move from his position, while her mother, Poppy, immediately gets up.

"Toph!"

"Mother… father…"

It's obvious that Toph is nervous about being in front of her parents again. Zuko chuckles, and leans down, wrapping his arms around the blind earthbender from behind. She starts as he runs his hands across her nubile, petite body, biting her lip as he starts to touch her in all the right places.

"It's alright, Toph. They both know the truth now. They know how amazing their daughter is. After all, what other earthbender could possibly bend metal?"

Toph goes tense again at that, but only for a moment before Zuko touches her in just the right place and she melts into his arms with a low, pleasured moan.

"You… y-you know about that then?"

Zuko nods his head, knowing that Toph will feel it given that he's resting his chin atop HER head. Meanwhile, in front of her daughter, Poppy has begun to undress. Perhaps it's easier for the woman to do so given that her daughter is blind, but that doesn't stop Toph from nearly jumping out of her skin as she feels her mother's clothing hitting the floor.

"Come to the bed, Toph. Join me and your mother, won't you?"

She shivers, but Zuko has already sunk his claws into her, and for all her prodigious talent, Toph is still a young woman, still growing into her own when it came to her sexuality and all of that. She was, without a doubt, still fairly inexperienced in matters of the flesh. It's quite easy for Zuko to coax Toph onto the bed, and quite easy for Poppy to capture her daughter's upper body and pull her head into her lap.

As Poppy runs her hands through Toph's hair, Toph herself whimpers and mewls as Zuko's fingers slide in and out of her cunt, her pussy dripping betwixt her thighs as he plays with her. Smiling, the young Fire Lord makes sure that Toph is properly prepared before bringing his cock to bear, his hard, thick member sliding up along her inner thighs and pressing against her cunt, not for the first time.

"Have you thought of me like I've thought of you, Toph? Have you imagined this moment happening again, as I have?"

Toph goes still at that, but in the end gives a jerky nod as she bites her lower lip. Her voice sounds almost wondering as she responds.

"You… you've thought of me too? I…"

Zuko slowly begins to penetrate her then, and whatever Toph might have said is lost as her words turn into a wanton moan. She's not a virgin, obviously, Zuko already made sure of that. But it's equally obvious she hasn't had sex since they'd gotten together that one night all those moons ago. Toph is delightfully tight as he fucks her right there on the bed, with her head in her naked, pregnant mother's lap.

She moans and whimpers and writhes beneath him, but nonetheless takes his cock nice and deeper. Zuko fills her with his member again and again as her parents watch, her mother with a pleased smile on her face, her father with an unreadable expression. Obviously, Toph's father is not too happy about the current circumstances. He probably won't ever be happy about them.

Zuko doesn't care. As far as the young Fire Lord is concerned, Toph's father is the reason Toph wasn't already world-renowned, truth be told. He'd held her back, preventing his exceptional daughter from being the best she could be for far too long. Sure, Toph was blind… but that didn't make her weak. The earthbender had proven that time and time again, and even if their children shared in Toph's physical deformity, Zuko knew that the blind earthbender would show them how to survive, show them how to live without sight, how to 'see' through the earth all around them.

Of course, right now Toph was on the bed with Zuko and her mother. There was no earth around her, nothing for her to 'see' the world through. The girl really was blind at the moment, and in a way, completely at Zuko's mercy. It seemed that she quite liked being at his mercy, based on how wet she was, on how her cunt clenched and squeezed tightly around his cock. Toph couldn't stop moaning, couldn't stop cumming around his member.

In the end, it doesn't take long for her to get him to go over the edge, her tight inner walls milking him of his seed. Zuko fills Toph's womb with his cum, potentially breeding her on the spot, and Toph cries out happily, back arching as he does so, one last explosive orgasm wracking her petite form. The moment that he's done, the moment that Zuko pulls out of her, Poppy moves into position.

Flipping herself around, Toph's mother lays across her daughter's naked form, and cradles Toph's face in her hands. She kisses her blind daughter in a very unmotherly fashion, their tongues dueling with one another. Slowly, carefully, Zuko penetrates the pregnant MILF from behind, taking her bent over her daughter then and there. As Poppy's pregnant belly rubs against Toph's tummy, the MILF pulls back and gasps and moans into her daughter's face.

"D-Do you feel that, Toph? Do you feel mommy's belly? I'm going to give you a little brother or sister soon… c-courtesy of the Fire Lord. And you'll likely give birth to your first child around the same time. I hope our children can be good friends. I hope you can help them, if they're born the same way as you. I… I realize that your uniqueness is not a deficiency anymore, my darling child. I'm so sorry for not being the mother I should have been, for trying to cage you, my little bird."

Toph can only whimper and blush as her mother gives such a heartfelt apology while being fucked by Zuko right atop her. Zuko, meanwhile, is grinning wickedly at Toph's utter submission. It's quite clear, here and now, that he at least has one member of Team Avatar ready to submit and join him at the drop of a hat. Toph is his, part of his family… even if she doesn't quite know it yet.

Zuko makes sure to spill his seed inside of Poppy once before sending her over to pleasure her husband. Then, he fucks Toph several more times for good measure. It was time to make sure that the blind earthbender got pregnant with his baby. Time to make damn sure…

-x-X-x-

"Zuko! Zuko, I need to… speak with you…"

As Katara trails off, Zuko turns towards the dark-skinned waterbender, lifting a brow as he continues to towel off from a particularly vigorous training session that he had just finished with Aang. And yes, so far, all that he and the female Avatar had done was train, actually train. Aang was making good progress in mastering firebending now that she had a good teacher, though Zuko could tell that he would need to implement some of his further plans to make sure she was properly ready for the battle when the comet arrived.

He intended to win fairly, which meant making sure the Avatar had every tool in her arsenal. He was not his great-grandfather, he was not his grandfather, and he was most certainly not his father. He was Fire Lord Zuko, and he would not have anyone say he cheated in the upcoming battle. Sozin's Comet would ensure that he could face the Avatar on even ground, but other than that, it would come down to who was better, who was more skilled… who believed more in their cause.

Regardless, right now Zuko was bare-chested, wearing nothing but a pair of training pants, and glistening with sweat. That was what Katara had barged in on, entering the room when he was still mostly decent, but clearly not decent enough for her, given the way she blushes, her eyes lingering for a moment on his chiseled abs before she realizes he's watching her stare and averts her gaze.

Still, even as she crosses her arms over her chest defensively, Katara is still heated, and not in the way Zuko is. She's not going to be scared off by some abs, it seems.

"We need to talk, Zuko. We need to talk about my mother. And about my new siblings."

Zuko hums at that, having been expecting this at some point. With a shrug, he grabs up the outer robes of his usual Fire Lord regalia and tosses them over his shoulders, not quite covering up, but doing enough in his opinion.

"Sure. But I am a very busy man, Katara… so we'll have to walk and talk."

Katara growls at that, but in the end bites out an affirmative response.

"Fine!"

And that's exactly what they do. Katara is upset, of course. The young waterbender is upset about a lot of things. She's upset about her mother, who is apparently acting inappropriately towards Sokka, in Katara's humble opinion. She's upset that Zuko has fathered two children off of her mother, and that she slept with the same man who her little brother and sister call daddy.

She's also upset to find out that friends Team Avatar made along the way, like Haru and Suki, have taken Zuko's side in all of this, joining up with him and allowing him such liberties with them. In the end, Katara is just plain upset, and in her eyes, she has a lot to be upset about. After all, she's spent so long with the Avatar at this point… and in her absence, in all that time she's spent on the run, living in the wilds, it's as if her whole world, everything she knew, has been turned up on its head.

Zuko does his best to explain it all to her, of course. As they walk, he talks, elaborating on this or that. Mostly, his excuse is that the choices of those around him are their own. When it comes to Katara's mother, all Zuko will say is that he loves Kya very much, just as much as Katara does… perhaps just in a different way. He challenges Katara to think, to truly think about what is and isn't inappropriate between family. Frankly, Zuko believes that there's nothing inappropriate that can take place between family, so long as everyone has matured enough.

Regardless, Zuko was a little deceptive. He actually didn't have anything else to do at the moment. The reason he wanted to walk, and talk was simple… he wanted to show Katara something. It was around this time that it should be happening, after all. Eventually, Zuko stops in front of a seemingly innocuous looking wall. Katara stops with him, but before she can ask him what he's doing, Zuko reaches out and pulls on a nearby wall fixture, making a secret entrance open up.

"W-What? What is this?"

"Come along, Katara."

The confused waterbender follows him into the secret passageway, which eventually leads them right into a hidden chamber. There are many slats in the walls of this chamber, but Zuko moves over to one slat in particular. Katara goes with him, but when she opens her mouth to speak, Zuko places a finger against it, shushing her and keeping his voice quiet.

"Don't say anything. Bite your tongue, if you have to, and look through here."

Katara frowns but moves into position, right in front of the slat, even as Zuko pulls it open. Immediately, the sounds of feminine moans and masculine groans fill the air, along with a very familiar voice.

"That's right, Sokka baby~ deeper! Oooh, fuck me deeper!"

"Mom… fuck!"

Moving up behind the speechless, frozen form of Katara, Zuko peeks over her shoulder, even as he places his hands on her hips. Katara nearly jumps out of her skin at that, but doesn't let out more than quiet eep, not wanting to alert the foursome in the room beyond. It's not just Sokka and Kya in there, after all… Ursa and Azula are with them.

Zuko smiles, watching as Sokka fucks and breeds his own mother. He's plowing Kya something fierce, but the gorgeous water tribe MILF is bouncing her wide hips back against him in equal measure. She's the perfect woman to take her oldest son's virginity, to be honest. She knows her place, knows where she belongs, beneath him… but she also knows how to encourage Sokka, how to help him reach new heights.

Azula is just as naked as Kya and Sokka are, and Ursa is currently playing with her daughter as Zuko's sister waits her turn, eyes fixated on where Sokka's sizable member is disappearing in and out of Kya's drooling quim. This is to be the end of Azula's punishment, once she's pregnant with Sokka's child then Zuko will finally fully forgive her… but it's obvious that she's also excited, now that she's watching Sokka pound away at Kya's cunt like a mad man.

That's alright though, Zuko has actually long forgiven his sister. It's not really a punishment anymore, so much as a necessary part of his plans that Sokka breed Azula to tie their families all the closer together. At the same time, it's a necessary part of his plans that he breed Katara, here and now. The young waterbender doesn't stop him, as he runs his hands across her body, playing with her nubile, dark-skinned form.

She doesn't stop him as he begins to strip her down. She's already getting hot and bothered by what she's seeing in front of her. Zuko's fingers slip inside of Katara's wet quim even as Sokka finishes inside of their mother and is swiftly presented with Zuko's sister. Azula blushes and averts her gaze, even as she spreads her pussy lips wide and offers herself up to the horny male water tribe warrior.

Sokka wastes no time in penetrating Azula, and Zuko just smiles, matching the young man's pace for a bit with his fingers inside of Sokka's sister. But eventually, he escalates, replacing his fingers with his thick, throbbing cock, and finally taking Katara from behind, even as they both watch Sokka fuck the three women in the room beyond.

Yes, the three women. Even as Zuko is fucking Katara nice and hard as they spy on the foursome through the hidden slat in the wall, Sokka finishes in Azula… and moves onto Ursa. Zuko hadn't explicitly told his mother to lay with the water tribe warrior, but he also hadn't forbid it. If Sokka had a big enough libido, he was willing to let it happen. It seemed that the man did, because he went to town on Ursa just as he had on Kya and Azula before her.

Meanwhile, Zuko leans in close to Katara's ear, nipping at it gently before speaking in a voice that was barely a whisper.

"After you bear my child, I plan to have Sokka breed you next. Then, perhaps after that, your father can impregnate you, if he proves willing. You and your mother together will rebuild the population of the Southern Water Tribe, rebuild the population of Southern Waterbenders… and when the time comes, when my son and your little brother Hato is old enough, you will bear his children as well, as will his mother."

Katara shudders under this onslaught of information, combined with an avalanche of pleasure. Her eyes roll up in her head and she cums explosively on Zuko's cock, which in turn pushes him over the edge as well. He fills her womb with his seed, breeding her on the spot, before continuing to fuck her. After all, in the room beyond, Sokka has moved back to his mother and is now fucking Kya on her back, where he can latch onto her fat swollen tits and suckle at them to his heart's content.

Zuko is still rock hard, and Katara is starting to finally rock her hips back into his thrusting prick as she clings to the wall, watching the debauchery taking place in the room beyond even now. In that moment, Zuko knows he has Katara and Sokka as well. It's taken a long time to get them here, a long time to engage with them as part of his massive family… but now they were his, just as much as their mother was. They just had to accept that simple fact, and they would all be so very happy.

-x-X-x-

"Enough."

As he casually turns aside Aang's latest attack, the word slips from his lips, surprising even him. The female Avatar skids to a stop and blinks at him, brow furrowing as she hops back a few steps.

"… Are we done for the day?"

Zuko shakes his head, furrowing his brow in consternation as he regards the Avatar for a long moment in silence. They'd both just gotten back a day previous from learning the Dragon's Dance from actual Dragons. That had been a trip, as had the realization that the near extinction of the majestic race was yet another crime he could lay at his paranoid great-grandfather's feet.

The restoration of the dragons had certainly found itself on Zuko's list, but it would have to wait a while as he finished fixing the rest of his forefathers' fuck ups. For now, all of Zuko's attention was on Aang and training her for the battle ahead. He wanted her as strong as possible, so that when he won, no one could dispute his rule.

But that was the problem. He'd noticed she was holding herself back, as if afraid of her own power… or of the fire that no doubt raged within her. She acted so carefree, so happy go lucky. But Zuko knew better. There had to be an anger within her. There had to be a rage brewing deep in her belly. A hundred years ago, his great-grandfather had committed genocide upon her entire people.

Now here they were, preparing for the return of the very comet that had allowed Sozin to do so. The great-grandson of the Air Nomad's killer was going to be her enemy… and yet, still she held back. It was obvious, in Zuko's opinion, what was happening. Aang was unsure of herself. He didn't know if the Avatar always had been, or if it was a recent change, but there was no doubt in his mind that Aang wasn't sure what to do.

The pressure of destiny, combined with not even knowing what she would do if she did win, as well as her own kind nature… it was all preventing and inhibiting Aang from attacking him too harshly. After all, as much as the spirits had told her that he was the enemy, he'd never truly BEEN her enemy. He'd never acted as an enemy to her. He'd never been the aggressor, despite being the Fire Lord in this equation.

Aang had come out of the ice up in the North Pole only to discover that the newest Fire Lord was the first one in a hundred years who didn't want to fight her, who didn't want to try to end the Avatar line through her. And that was the truth too. Zuko had no intentions of ending the Avatar line… he had every intention of ending the traditions of the past though and changing the way the Avatar and any of her future predecessors perceived their positions.

First though, he had to defeat Aang so totally and so utterly that no one could say or do anything about it. But before that, he had to make sure Aang was ready to fight him, or it simply wouldn't be fair, and that would open up a whole new can of worms. Perhaps… perhaps it was time.

"… No, we're not done with training for the day. But you're clearly having trouble with this. So perhaps it's time to show you something else. Come with me."

Aang furrows her brow in confusion but follows him out of the training yard and into the wide hallways of the palace, nonetheless. Eventually, they come to a room. Specifically, Zuko's set of rooms, the royal quarters. Zuko leads Aang inside his bedchambers, the female Avatar's brow now furrowed as she looks around the strange mixture of opulent and spartan. Zuko had had most of the grandiose things removed when he'd taken over the set of chambers from his dearly departed father. It was still made for a Fire Lord though, so some of the opulence couldn't be gotten rid of.

As for the massive bed in the center of the main bedchamber, well… that wasn't opulence, that was necessity. After all, Zuko often shared his bed with multiple women. Even now, said bed was occupied with two girls… two girls that shocked Aang to her core.

"K-Katara?! Toph?!"

Truth be told, Zuko hadn't been sure if they would still be there when he arrived. He'd left the two young women stuffed full of his seed that morning, after fucking them both throughout the night upon returning with Aang from learning the Dragon's Dance. They'd missed him, even if only Toph was willing to admit it. Likewise, only Toph seemed to feel no shame as she and Katara shot up from the bed, while Katara blushed profusely and hurried to cover herself up.

Zuko though, wasn't going to give Aang any time to process what was going on. If he was going to dislodge her from the control of ancient and old spirits who had no say in the direction the living world went, then he was going to have to go for an all-out assault. Moving behind Aang, Zuko places his hands on her side, and his lips at her ear, even as she tenses up at the sudden move.

"Neither of them was unwilling, Aang. In fact, they both came to me last night after we returned, and I welcomed them into my bed. Just as I will welcome you into my bed after I win our Agni Kai on the day of the comet."

"I… w-wait… no, I c-can't…"

She protests but doesn't struggle. She whimpers but doesn't stop him as he rubs soothing circles into her sides with his thumbs, as he licks and nibbles at her ear and then her neck in a truly erotic way that she's clearly never experienced before.

"You can't? Why, because you don't want it? Or… because the spirits don't want it?"

Aang whimpers at that, shaking her head.

"A-Avatar Roku…"

Zuko growls, cutting her off, even as he slips one hand down the front of her pants and silences her with his fingers on her bald mound, playing with her moistening pussy lips.

"Roku is dead, Aang. So is Sozin. So is Azulon. So is my father Ozai. They're all dead. Old men, trying to make the world theirs, trying to keep things in balance… I must admit, I don't put much stock in this so-called balance. Why can the world not find peace and harmony under one rule, hm? Look at the bed, Aang. I've got an earthbender, I've got a waterbender… all that's left is you to join the fray. All four elements, in perfect harmony. Where is the problem with this, hm?"

Aang whimpers again, not seeming to have an immediate response to that. Neither Toph nor Katara say a word as he molests Aang. Spinning the Avatar around, Zuko captures her lips with his own while wrapping his hands around her body and grasping ahold of her bum. He squeezes Aang's buttocks even as he walks her back towards the bed, and eventually topples her over onto it.

Ending up on her back, the Avatar gasps when Zuko begins to roughly strip her… but still she doesn't fight back. Frowning, Zuko grabs hold of her tits almost viciously, squeezing them roughly once they're revealed to him.

"What will you do, Avatar, if I do something like this during the Agni Kai? Won't you struggle? Won't you fight back?"

Aang's eyes go wide at that idea, her blush intensifying. Still she doesn't try to push him off. In fact, her only response is verbal… and her protest is exceedingly weak.

"Y-You wouldn't…"

Was there a single woman on this planet that wasn't weak to pleasure? Zuko was beginning to wonder. He'd had every female member of Team Avatar save for Aang herself… and now here he was, yanking down her pants, exposing her gushing wet cunt. Without hesitation, Zuko takes out his cock and presses it against her nethers as he looks down into her eyes.

"Why wouldn't I?"

Aang blushes, staring down at where they're about to be joined. Still, she doesn't try to stop him. Neither do Toph or Katara, the two young women remaining where they are, their own wombs still full of his warm hot seed from earlier. If they aren't pregnant with his child by now, they will be very, very soon.

"B-Because… because no one would accept it! You wouldn't h-have the authority you want from b-beating me in a fair fight!"

Zuko grins at that answer… and thrusts right in. The Air Nomad beneath him cries out as he takes her virginity, but all the foreplay has done its job, and she's so wet that the pain is but minimal and fleeting as he fills her with his sizable member. Pushing down atop her, Zuko leans in close, speaking in a murmur.

"You're right. I have to beat you straight up. I have to prove that, even with you wielding all four elements, I can win. That I deserve to win. That I deserve to lead this world into the next era."

Slowly, he pistons his prick in and out of Aang, leading to her moaning and groaning and mewling as he fucks her.

"You're my last obstacle Avatar. Once I've shown everyone that I can bring you in line… then it'll all be over… but at the same time, it'll be just beginning."

Aang looks at him with wide eyes, clearly conflicted… but also still beneath him, still full of his cock. She could easily push him away, but she doesn't. He has her completely in his grasp at the moment… but the fight will still have to happen. He'll still have to beat her, to show the world that he is destined to be their Emperor. Destiny, heh… Zuko didn't put much stock in it, but he would make use of the concept all the same.

As he fucks her, he elaborates on what he means by that last part.

"After our fight, I'm going to knock you up, Aang. I'm going to breed you and impregnate you with my child. But that won't be the end of it… once you've given birth to my baby, Sokka will breed you next. He's already getting quite good at it, knocking up his own mother as well as my sister and my mother."

Aang flushes at that, as does Katara. Toph, meanwhile, gasps in shock, not having known. Of course, neither did Aang, but she's too busy gasping and moaning about what Zuko is doing to her to gasp about Sokka's debauchery.

"After Sokka, I think Haru should breed you next. After him… well, we'll have to figure it out, won't we? But mark my words, Avatar… from your loins, we will birth an entire new nation of airbenders."

It would have been easier if Aang were a boy, of course. If the Last Airbender were a man, then Zuko could just have him breed every single woman that Zuko could supply. It would be a lot faster to create a new generation of airbenders that way. But alas, they were stuck with a female Avatar and a female airbender. Which meant they'd have to knock her up again and again and again to rekindle the Air Nomads.

Not that Aang looked like she minded that. In fact, she was currently cumming on his cock… and tipping him over the edge as well. Now, now, they couldn't have that.

"Not yet though."

Zuko pulls his cock out of Aang as quickly as he thrust it in, and before Toph or Katara can even react, he grabs them by their hair and drags them down. Together, the two other girls end up drinking his seed, having already been bred by his big fat cock earlier that morning. Aang, meanwhile, is left panting and whimpering as she watches her friends suck and clean Zuko's cock. Looking over their heads, Zuko smiles at the Avatar.

"We'll have to have our fight first. After all, if I lose… well, none of that will come to pass, now will it?"

Judging by the look on Aang's face, Zuko is going to have to try something else to get the Avatar to fight for real when the comet arrives. This particular idea might just have backfired spectacularly. But no matter… in the end, it would all work out. In the end, Zuko would have his empire, and his family… and the world would rise.
