Everyone got busy fighting the spirits now as they constantly attacked them.
Aang started using his energy bending to make the spirits good again. But there were too many to effectively stop them. Even with an increasing number of support coming from the white lotus, Earth nation army, and Airbenders dropping bombs from the sky, the number of spirits was still not decreasing.
Just then Aang noticed Ozai walking towards Iroh. Iroh sent a lightning bolt at Ozai but Ozai used one of the spirits as a shield. He eventually closed in on Iroh and caught him by the neck.
"Let's start with killing the family's incompetent fool," Ozai muttered.
Zuko noticed the scene and ran to save Iroh, "UNCLE!"
Iroh meanwhile looked at Ozai in the eyes, "By the time all this will end, none of this will matter. You are nothing compared to my friend up there. You have been able to do all this till now because no life has been lost yet. The moment you try to kill someone, you will lose.
"Your shortsightedness will be the reason for your demise, Ozai. Like always, the light will triumph over darkness. The heavens will judge you and punish you accordingly. Your mortal shell will not protect you then,"
"SHUT UP! Always rambling your wise talks." Ozai shouted in his face.
"You have gone mad, Ozai. Look at yourself in the mirror. You aren't even recognizable. Are you even a human? I would have offered tea normally but you had crossed the point of no return long ago." Iroh plainly said.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Ozai raised his other fist and prepared to pierce Iroh's heart.
Iroh shook his head and sighed, "Ugh... I am not even angry at you, Ozai. I am disappointed. On you, on father and grandfather. Fire nation had lost its way generations ago"
"THEN DIE!" Ozai fumed.
Ozai punched his hand with a smooth arched motion. His target was the heart. And he was not using fire, but lightning.
*BURP*
"What did I miss? I just went to pee for a minute," Ragnarok asked Iroh. One hand of Ragnarok had caught Ozai's arm that was going to attack.
"It's a bad day, my friend. A very bad day," Iroh breathed.
"Release my hand," Ozai wriggled and tried to punch Ragnarok's face with his fire fist.
Ragnarok caught his fist with his other hand, "Stop this candlelight show of yours. If I were to show you true fire you'd wet your pants and call for your mamma, no offense Iroh."
*CRACK*
Ragnarok had held Ozai's fist too tightly. So much so that it had started to break down.
"AANG! my boy, you deal with this guy, you've got some destiny stuff going on with him. I will deal with all the spirits," Ragnarok roared and went to deal with the spirits which was not too hard. He even called all the tailed beasts out to catch them all.
He then threw Ozai a distance away like a ragdoll. For the first time, Ozai had felt this helpless. He looked at his fist that was nearly crushed. No matter what he tried he couldn't get away from Ragnarok. He felt like a child getting manhandled.
~Is this the power of the gods? What if I had it?~ He wondered. But he came out of his thoughts as Aang had come to him to confront him.
Aang went all out from the start and used all his powers to utterly destroy Ozai. His body, mind, and spirit. All of them were scared by Aang's Avatar state.
He eventually punched him and locked his arms and legs. He was extremely angry at Ozai for all he had done. He had also killed Iroh's son. A man Aang respected from the bottom of his heart.
Aang spoke in a muffled voice in his Avatar state, "Fire Lord Ozai, you and your forefathers have devastated the balance of this world and now, you shall pay the ultimate price"
In his Avatar state, he went for the kill. He was being influenced by the thoughts of all the previous Avatars. But just when he was about to kill Ozai, an image appeared in his mind.
"Choose your own paths, Aang, if someone else is doing it then are you even alive?"
Aang's slowly came out of his Avatar state.
"Killing you is not my decision to make. I am not going to end it like this." Aang mumbled.
Ozai was on the ground, breathing heavily. He looked at Aang in disgust, "Even with all the power in the world. You are still WEAK."
He waved his hand and everyone started to hover in the air. "Okay, do not feel scared now."
Before they could ask anything, suddenly they all accelerated and left the planet's atmosphere. The Sozin Comet was just going away from the planet.
Alexander brought all of them close to the comet.
"So this is the Sozin's comet. I can feel it acting as a catalyst for my firebending." Azula commented.
"HEY! Why is this shaped like a gorilla's head?" Sokka asked jokingly.
"Yeah Sokka, this looks just like your head." Toph japed at him.
"Hah... very funny," Sokka rolled his eyes at being made fun of.
"Anyway, what are you going to do with it?" Sokka asked.
"Hmm, maybe I'll eat it," Alexander muttered. He went close to it and gave it a traditional lick.
"Yuck, it tastes like hot mud," he exclaimed.
Then he pointed his arm at the comet and activated his eyes.
Soon the distancing comet started getting attracted towards his arm. After a few minutes, it instantly disappeared as if it got sucked inside Alexander's arm.
Alexander instantly felt the power surge in his body. In fact, he started burning too.
"Haha, Alex, are you turning into a dragon too?" Ragnarok asked.
"I don't know, Raggy. But we will have to run tests later. Well, anyway, our job here is done. Kids, you have become your world's first people to go into outer space. Now, let's go back." He announced and started dropping down.
"AAAAAA..." Sokka screamed like a girl and jumped onto Alexander like a monkey.
"Kid, stop embarrassing yourself in front of your girl," Alexander told him.
"Life is more important," Sokka argued.
"Hmph..." Suki's displeasure got noted soon.
"Kid, you'll get beaten tonight as well," Ragnarok told him, deduced by the looks of Suki.
"Okay, touchdown," Alexander said and released them from his magic that was keeping them alive until now.
As soon as they came, Dobby appeared, "Boss, job well done. We have finished our assignment,"
"Good good, now it is time to celebrate and announce the end of this stupid war."
