And just like I had originally deduced the one that was emanating such a corrupted, repulsive, vomit provoking array of emotions was Ozai, his mere presence had me at edge. It was like poison to me… it hurt both physically and emotionally to be near such a disgusting excuse for a human being. Ironically like fire he was burning me from the inside out.

But this, agonizing meeting had proven something… I was mentally stronger than I thought, here I was sitting beside Azula, with a unyielding urge to rip him apart to end my pain. And yet he was still alive, wasting oxygen in my presence, like a worm crawling in a pile of shit.

"You are the one courting my daughter?" Ozai asked, his feelings flaring with a strong sense of superiority, looking down on me as if I was a bug.

"Yes, I am," I nodded, trying to be as polite as I could physically be, right now I couldn't focus too much on my manners, it was taking all my concentration to keep myself from jumping at him like a lion on its prey.

"I don't think he should even talk to the princess…" A man I had completely failed to notice commented, and who can blame me, right now with this struggle for control it was the perfect time to try and attack me, after all, my focus was solely on Ozai right now.

"Fortunately for me, your opinion doesn't matter…" Azula shot back.

"He was born and raised outside the glory of our nation! Our princess is basically dating a commoner my lord," The man kneeled in front of Ozai, "I bet he doesn't even has a decent education or training,"

"I could always rip you apart, that way you can personally see how good of a bender am I!" I growled, if this idiot wanted to be my lighting rod in more than one way, I would be more than happy to oblige. In fact I was fucking elated.

"Are you challenging him?" Ozai inquired, his emotions showing he was delighted.

"Let them fight father, it would be a show to behold," Azula smirked, happy with how things were going right now, "An Agni Kai to prove himself worthy of courting me!"

"If I have to kill an idiot to prove this decision it's remarkably wrong then… so be it," The soon to be coal man, stated.

"I will enjoy breaking your bravado," I said with a cold tone.

"I am one of the generals of this powerful nation… the only thing you will do it's waste my time," The piece of coal commented, feeling confident behind his words.

"So be it," Ozai stated, excited at the idea of seeing bloodshed, "You two will fight for your honor in an hour!"

"It's so sad really," Azula sighed, "To think we will have to replace a general in times of war," her words filled with excitement, "But oh well, you win some… you lose some,"

"As you wish, my lord," The corpse bowed ignoring Azula, as he turned around, trying to shove past me, but I stood my ground and in turn it was the idiot who fell into the ground.

"The only one that can push me… in all heaven and earth… it's me," I stated with a cold tone, bowing to the trash named Ozai, before leaving the room.

————————————————————————

Immediately after leaving the throne room, I waited for Azula outside, where she congratulated me with a very passionate kiss, "Father doesn't hate you, and now all you have to do to win his approval is squash that insolent bug who tried to separate us, and considering you defeated me… well, this will be easy,"

I chuckled, "It will,"

"Now, let's get you ready for this little show…" Azula chuckled, "Oh and be a dear and make him scream,"

After Azula gave me some traditional clothes that were normally used for the noble Agni Kais that she for some reason had on my size…. which reminded me that I had to talk to her about that later… like how the fuck did she know I was going to fight an Agni Kai… and more importantly how in the extra fuck did she know my exact measurements to the letter, I didn't know my measurements!

Anyway, after Azula gave me the clothes I needed to wipe the floor with the general, I waited at the designated location. Until the Firelord and some nobles came.

"Let's do it." I sighed, shedding the traditional shoulder garment as I turned around to face the general.

"Very well, though to be frankly I thought you'd run away!" The general said, thinking to destabilize me with weak ass trash talk, as if a few sharp words would do anything to me. "Perhaps I should make an example of your family after this," he said, smiling.

Well, I had to give the man a prize, he had touched my buttons there by threatening Sakura, meaning the desired effect was reached, I had been destabilized by his words, but there's one thing you don't do, you don't fuck with someone crazy enough to date someone on the royal fire family.

As soon as the words left his rotten mouth, my thoughts turned to Sakura, and immediately my anger surged, filling me with energy that soon bursted into wild flames around me.

"Good," commented Azula with a grin, pleased with the development.

Surrounded by flames that could rival the sun itself, I blasted at the idiot, and shaking with anger I stopped just in front of him, observing his eyes seeing them shaking with unadulterated fear, hinting he was starting to regret his decision, and not only that but I could feel he wanted to surrender with my empathic sense, but as he tried to mustered the strength to do so, I simply glared at the terrified General, and slowly pulled back my left fist, preparing to attack. "Begone," bringing my fist forth, I blasted off the man from hip to head incinerating his upper body before he even had the chance to fully reconsider his life choices.

"I win…" I said walking off the stage, leaving a very frightened audience, a very intrigued Firelord, and a very… very happy Azula.
