Aang was shocked to see the Fire Nation Capital in the distance. He assumed he was supposed to fight Ozai here. So, he waited and waited. But then he got fed up as no one came. The solar eclipse had already started to pass as well.
~I hope they were successful," Aang muttered to himself.
"Hey, what are you doing here, Aang?" Suddenly Alexander appeared.
"Oh, grandpa, I was waiting for Ozai here," Aang said.
"Haha, he's not coming here, Aang. Come with me, Zuko has already taken over the Fire Nation. Ozai ran away somewhere." He told him.
Aang quickly thought of a reason, "He probably ran because of the solar eclipse. I bet he's going to come back during the Sozin's Comet"
"Yes, most likely. But you've got nothing to fear now, Aang. You will have the support of the whole world when you fight him because no one's got anything better to do now," Alexander said, trying to make him feel less anxious.
Just as they came to the Fire Lord's palace, Katara came running and hugged Aang.
"Aang, are you okay? Where were you? We were so worried about you." She cried.
Aang genuinely felt a bit at ease, seeing that she was worried about him. "Katara, you won't believe it, I met a lion turtle. He was as big as an island. I also met all the spirit beasts, all nine of them."
"What?! What were those potatoes doing there?" Alexander wondered. Although he was faking it. He didn't want them to get sad that their surprise got revealed before they could present it.
"Hehe, nothing, G-Chan, we were just playing with uncle turtle." Chomei clarified.
Alexander didn't force him to speak. "Okay, let's go in then. This was probably the easiest and most nonviolent siege in the history of sieges."
They entered the royal palace which now didn't feel ominous as before. Iroh had also returned now with Azula.
"Ah, I didn't even have to do anything and justice was served, I guess the heavens didn't want any more bloodshed," Iroh muttered as he walked up to him.
"You know what your brother is planning. He won't give up that easily." Alexander reminded him.
"Yes, I know, being stubborn is in the blood. But I hope he doesn't do something too stupid." Iroh muttered.
While they talked, Azula circled around Zuko as if checking his royal regal clothes and asked Zuko in a not so friendly tone. "So, my good brother is going to be the fire lord ha? How does it feel to have so much power? I bet it is amazing, fire lord Zuzu"
"Well, I feel burdened. So many people are looking up to me, watching me closely to know what kind of Fire Lord I will be. I really have too much work to do. All the damage that has been done to the world will take a lot of time to heal," Zuko said.
"Stop being such a crybaby, this was why father wanted me to be the Fire Lord," she scowled.
"Then, do you still want to?" Zuko asked, looking her in the eyes.
"Hell no, I am happy and free now. I don't need to see the ugly mugs of all the soldiers every day now. I can see my sunshine every day whenever I want," Azula fanatically said.
Alexander noticed Azula looking at the shining bald head of Saitama in the distance.
~This is getting weird,~ Alexander thought.
Aang walked and patted Zuko's back, "And you will have my support in repairing the world. Remember, it is the Avatar's duty to bring balance."
"Thanks, Aang," Zuko smiled at him.
"Hey, does anybody want some tea? I made it to drink in the war but the war didn't come," Iroh asked everyone there.
"YES!"
"I think I will."
"Uncle is the best"
Everyone agreed. Iroh was everyone's favorite, it seemed. It was a good evening. The soldiers of the fire nation were also resting now because there was no war to fight now.
"My friend, do you know where my brother is hiding right now?" Iroh asked.
"Fair enough," Ozai accepted. The comet was still in the air and he was feeling invincible.
Aang flew to Ozai and attacked him.
"Oh, I can't believe I am now fighting a child," Ozai ridiculed him.
"Says the man who burned the face of his teenage son," Aang replied back.
"Haha...Hahahaha... amusing, you are standing in front of your death and yet can't understand the seriousness of the situation. Say goodbye to the world of the living. HAAAA..."
Ozai suddenly shoots out fire from his fists. But it was not normal fire as everyone could feel the anger and violence in that punch. The scariest thing was that the fire looked black.
The black fire headed directly to Aang. Aang decided to defend himself with Earthbending and created a wall between him and the oncoming black fire. But, then he saw the fire passing through the wall like butter and a hot knife.
Alexander had gone to catch the Sozin's comet in the sky and end this whole problem from the roots. But, when he was in the sky he saw what Ozai did. He wondered if Ozai really did make a deal with the devil. But he could not feel any sort of demonic presence over his body.
"How did he get the black fire?" he asked himself confusedly and rushed to get Aang because the fire was still passing through the wall and Aang had no idea what was coming towards him. If he got touched by it it would destroy his body and he would die.
The black fire just touched his chest when Alexander came to him quickly.
"AANG! JUMP!" He shouted.
He quickly landed just beside Aang and raised his hand towards Ozai. The black fire got absorbed in his hand by using his eyes' ability. The moment Alexander felt the power behind the black fire he knew what was happening. But, Aang was injured, and even if it was just a millimeter wound, it was still damaging. He stopped him from falling down.
Alexander got enraged, the sky's color changed from just red to gloomy dark red.
"Vaatu, you DARE to come out and meddle with the physical world? It seems you have forgotten me." Alexander shouted coldly. Anyone who was experiencing this felt chills run down their spines.
"AANG IS NOT ALONE!" he announced.
Suddenly, in a dramatic way, the images of all the previous Avatars appeared in a line on Alexander's left and right. He stood in the middle with his hands resting Aang's shoulder, sending his energy into Aang's body, healing him.
"AANG IS NOT ALONE!" The muffled voice of all the previous Avatars also came.
The people of the Fire Nation's capital witnessed the scene first hand. Many of them dropped to their knees and started praying to the spirit god. Asking for forgiveness for whatever crime they committed in their life.
"VAATU! 1 minute is all I give you to leave that man's body. Or else, I will beat you out of him." He threatened him, unleashing his full aura that made the warriors and people of the whole world kneel on the ground.
Even Vaatu was feeling the pressure and he was thinking that maybe it was not a nice plan to fight the spirit god. But, he knew that he wouldn't be killed by Spirit God as he was a necessary force of nature, without him, there can be no balance.
"TIME OVER!"
All the images of the previous Avatars combined into one and it entered into Aang's body, making him go into his Avatar state but this time he was in control of it. But it would take him a few minutes to orient himself.
Alexander meanwhile flew to Ozai(Vaatu) to beat Vaatu out of the mortal body.
