Everything changed when

Everything changed when the fire nation.... cough cough... I mean everything changed when the bald monk boy was subjected to a special test. A test to see if the boy was special. To see if the boy was the Avatar. Yes, the character which Nami got chosen into was Aang, the 82nd Avatar.

When Ken first saw the child he couldn't recognize him. He was too young to be recognized but when he saw the monks performing air bending, he knew which world Nami was sent into. Seeing this world again after such a long time had made him happy. He missed this series and he would be able to half live the whole life.

After Aang came out as an Avatar, he went missing. Meanwhile, the Fire Nation attacked and the world around changed due to one ambitious asshole. The crew then followed the journey of Aang, Katara, Sokka, Appa and Momo. Later in their journey they were joined by Toph and even Zuko at the end with whom he learnt fire bending. It was one of a roller coaster ride for the crew where they got to see the adventures.

"Appa looks so cute." Vivi said. Robin too thought the same.

"I wonder how much meat we can get if we eat Appa." Luffy with his usual meat brain commented only to be berated by Vivi and Chopper.

Nami under the guise of Aang continued living his life, how he learnt so much bending over the course of time and at the end was able to defeat Fire Lord. It was there everyone got to see Aang in his prime Avatar state and understood the horror of experiences of past lifetime. Aang, just a young teen, was able to make a fool out of Fire Lord even though he was being boosted by the comet that gave his fire bending a new edge.

But at the end, Aang chose the peaceful route and took away the bending away from the Fire Lord. With that almost a century old war ended. But the story didn't end there. Aang went on to become a father and was single handedly responsible for giving birth to the first legitimate air bender. He also got to see the boom of technology and the advancements made in the bending.

In fact he got to see blood bending too in his later life and had to take away the bending from the guy who was committing crime using blood bending. With such events being experienced, Nami was back in the system space with everyone being happy. They went on to hug her. She too felt really accomplished after living that life. Though her previous life was quite interesting and had many wonders, this life was more adventurous.

At first she wanted to grumble about her gender change but the more she lived his life the more she got to know his feelings and his struggles. He was brought up in a specific way and the war challenged all of his beliefs that he had held since childhood. In fact, when he went on to talk with the last Avatar who was an air bender monk and advised him to kill the Fire Lord, he still foolishly refused to do so.

That in itself was a huge gamble and thankfully it got paid off at the end.

"War is cruel." Vivi said as she remembered her own kingdom was on the verge of going into war.

"It always is." Robin commented.

"Nami what can you do right?" Ken asked as he was curious if she was able to do any kind of bending. She didn't have a high character completions so she shouldn't know too much.

"I can do air bending." Nami said as she proceeded to show her expertise in air bending. Though it was not as smooth as Aang, it was still quite good. This would be a great help for her. Air bending and magic. That would be quite the combination.

With that everyone was back in the real world. Everyone felt melancholic. Living and watching another life from some other life always gave them new experiences and new perspectives towards life. By this time, they had seen almost everything. Betrayal, love, hate, war, anger and everything known to mankind. This definitely made them much wiser.

Of course even after that there was Luffy who didn't bother with those kinds of things and even Zoro seemed to be taking a nap when Aang was on her journey. He would peep occasionally to see what was going on with the life of the young Avatar. Only swordsmanship could excite him and he was easily able to tell that these people could never have any good forms of sword fighting so he didn't bother.

Of course among all this, it was Sanji who was the most angry. Angry not on Nami but on Sokka. This guy who didn't know any bending went on to be a major figure and even date women. Though one of them died in the journey, that didn't stop him. He was really lucky even after being a normal young boy.

This made Sanji envious. He somehow wanted to beat Sokka up, but it was not possible and he could only grumble on the floor drawing circles. Of course, nobody cared about him.

As everyone was busy talking about the new world and Nami proceeded to practice her air bending, one of the guards came running in.

"Princess, the rebels have appeared. Pel had sent the information that the rebels are 10 kms away from the capital coming towards us at a pretty fast pace."

Everyone's happy mood got destroyed in seconds.

"I understand. We will make the arrangements." Vivi replied. She got up and suddenly went down on her knees and bowed to everyone present.

"My friends. I know this is much to ask from you. But I hope you will help me stop the rebels." Vivi said in all sincerity. The crew got silent until Luffy went and knocked on the head of Vivi.

"You don't need to bow to ask for help. You can ask us directly."
