Hey everyone, I hope you enjoyed last chapter! It took a while to write that one as I had to keep pausing the swamp episode to get the dialogue right while adding my own in there. This Chapter will be covering the Avatar Day episode, though it may be just a bit different than the original episode.
There were developments in the last episode that I'll focus on for a bit instead of just staying strictly with the story of the episode called Avatar Day. That's really all for now, onto the story!
P.S- I don't own Dbz/DB Kai/ DBS, Black Clover, or Avatar The Last Air Bender and their characters. Those belong to their respective creators.
Opening theme:

Visuals: flashes and introductions of the main cast of this story. Flashes of characters from both sides: team avatar (aang, katara, sokka, odyn, asura, and goku) and Azula's side: (Azula, Ty Lee, Mai, Zuko, and Iroh) shadowed characters are those yet to be introduced (Toph, Khanna, Roy).
Chapter Five: Those Bound by Fate — Avatar Day?
The Earth Kingdom — Before Dawn
The forest breathed around them in the particular way of old forests — slowly, with the deep, indifferent patience of things that have been here considerably longer than anything currently sleeping beneath their canopy and intend to continue long after. Fireflies moved through the dark in lazy constellations. Somewhere in the middle distance, an owl asked its eternal question of the night and received no satisfying answer.
Odyn sat with his back against a tree root, eyes closed, and was not sleeping.
From the outside, the distinction was invisible. His breathing was slow. His posture had the settled quality of someone who had let the weight of the day go. Sokka, sprawled nearby with his mouth open and a spider web spanning the distance between his upper and lower teeth with architectural ambition, would have passed a casual observation test for consciousness far less successfully — a small spider was currently navigating its infrastructure with focused professionalism while Momo watched from a low branch with the absorbed attention of an audience member at a performance they have not yet decided to endorse.
But Odyn's awareness was out — extended beyond the boundary of his body in a slow, rotating arc, pressing through the darkness and the tree-filtered silence, reading the shape of the world for anything that didn't belong to it.
Something didn't belong to it.
He opened his eyes at the same moment that Goku and Asura both shifted — the subtle weight-redistribution of people whose instincts had registered the information a half-second before their conscious minds had labeled it.
Momo made a decision, reached into Sokka's mouth, and punched at the spider.
Sokka came awake spitting.
"Momo — what are you doing in my mouth — you need to respect my bound—"
"Heads up," Odyn said, and the tone of it was different enough from ordinary speech that everyone still asleep stopped being asleep.
The ground answered him before anyone else could — a deep, rhythmic percussion that was unmistakably the cadence of heavy animals moving fast. Rhino-riders. Multiple. The approach angle suggested they had been tracking the camp for at least a few minutes and had decided this was the moment.
They were, Odyn reflected, not wrong about the moment. They were wrong about nearly everything else.
Goku and Asura were already moving — not toward the riders, but toward the others. Aang's staff materialized in Goku's hands. Katara's water scroll landed across Asura's shoulder. The two saiyans collected the remaining three members of the group with the practiced efficiency of people who have run away from fire nation soldiers enough times to have developed a system.
"Go," Odyn said.
"What about—" Katara started.
"I'll catch up. Hold on to something."
The rhino-riders burst into the clearing with the conviction of people expecting easy work. Their leader took in the scene — a campsite, some scattered belongings, what appeared to be a teenage boy standing in the middle of it looking entirely unbothered — and smirked with the particular confidence of someone who has misread a situation at maximum velocity.
"Give up. You're surrounded."
Odyn looked at him with the expression of someone reading a menu they have no intention of ordering from.
"I wouldn't be so sure about that," he said.
He gave it exactly one breath — enough time for the riders to start their charge, enough time for the others to be clear of the radius — and then he spread his arms wide, pulled every scrap of Ki in his body to the surface all at once, and exhaled.
The sound was less a shout than a detonation. The wall of compressed force that left him in a single expanding ring was not fire, not bending — it was the raw kinetic output of a Ki-bender expressing displeasure at approximately maximum volume. The riders went backward. The rhinos went backward. Trees at the edge of the clearing registered their opinions about this development by leaning away from the epicenter with some urgency.
Odyn was already running before the dust settled, vaulting onto Appa's saddle as Aang gave the command and the sky bison's enormous body lifted away from the treeline with the momentum of something that has decided the ground is someone else's problem.
One of the riders below recovered fast enough to bend fire upward at them. Odyn caught the stream with one hand, felt its heat and intention, and sent it back at twice the pressure. The rider sat down heavily in the grass and reconsidered his morning choices.
The camp disappeared below them.
"My boomerang," Sokka said, after a silence that had lasted approximately the amount of time it takes to realize something important is missing.
"There's no time," Katara said.
"We got Aang's staff. We got your scroll. We didn't get my boomerang."
"That's correct."
Sokka's shoulders fell in a way that communicated a grief both real and slightly theatrical. He was quiet for several minutes after that. Odyn put a hand on his shoulder, briefly, and meant it.
"I can go back for it. When they've moved on."
Sokka shook his head. "We'd be too far by then." A pause. "Thanks though."
The sky opened up around them, and the forest fell away below, and the morning came up gold over the Earth Kingdom in the way that mornings do when they have no knowledge of and no concern for the small human dramas unfolding beneath them.
A Village in the Earth Kingdom — Later That Day
The shop was small, well-stocked, and run by a man who had clearly decided long ago that the most efficient transaction was one conducted quickly, accurately, and with minimal ceremony. He handed over their produce before Katara had finished counting the water tribe coins, glanced at the currency with the brief assessment of someone who deals in a variety of things and has preferences but not requirements, and accepted it without drama.
"Water tribe money," he observed.
"I hope that's alright," Katara said.
"Money's money." He was already moving toward the back. "Have a nice Avatar Day."
The words stopped Aang mid-step. He turned.
"Avatar Day?"
The man paused. Looked back at them with the mild surprise of someone asked to explain something he considered self-evident. "You're going to the festival, right? Down in the village?"
The group looked at each other — Aang with curious optimism, Katara with cautious interest, Sokka with the expression he had been wearing since the boomerang, which was a specific shade of subdued. The shopkeeper, sensing that extended conversation was not on his agenda for the morning, closed up and walked away with a cheerful wave.
The festival spread across the lower village with the visual enthusiasm of something that had been prepared for with great commitment. Banners, stalls, music at a volume that suggested strong feelings about being heard. And in the center of it all, being wheeled into position by teams of people who clearly took this very seriously — floats.
Large floats. Very large floats.
Avatar Kyoshi came first: seventeen feet of painted iconography, fans raised, eyes white, expression conveying the particular serenity of someone who has seen everything twice. Avatar Roku followed — dignified, severe, rendered in colors that made him look more like a monument than a person.
"They made a giant Kyoshi float!" Katara said, delighted, moving toward it.
Aang fell into step beside her, his expression genuinely touched in the way it sometimes got when the world surprised him with evidence that someone, somewhere, had paid attention. "Having a festival in your honor — it's just nice to be appreciated."
Odyn was not moving.
Katara noticed. She doubled back, found his expression, and read it with the attention she had been gradually developing for exactly that face.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't take this the wrong way," he said, watching the float handlers guide Kyoshi's enormous painted form into place. "But something about this feels wrong. I can't name it yet. It's just—" He stopped. Looked at the floats, at the crowd, at the particular energy of the event, and tried to identify the source of the unease. "A hunch."
"You're overreading it," she said, with the tone of someone who was not entirely convinced they were right.
She pulled him along anyway. He let himself be pulled, because that was the most efficient response and also because Katara pulling him somewhere had become a specific phenomenon in his daily life that he had stopped arguing with on principle.
The third float appeared from around the corner.
It was Aang. Life-sized — or rather, considerably larger than life-sized, which was the point of a float, the point being that the subject should be unmistakably identified from a significant distance. The painted face gazed out over the crowd with an expression of frozen serenity that bore some relation to Aang's actual face but had been idealized by whoever the artist was into something that was more symbol than person.
"That's the biggest me I've ever seen," Aang said.
The float was wheeled into position between its companions. The crowd cheered. A young man with a torch began moving through it with a purposeful stride.
"I don't think I like where this is going," Odyn said.
Sokka was observing the torch as a festival prop, noting its dramatic effect, when Katara voiced a question that crystallized what several of them had been thinking simultaneously.
"What is that man doing?"
The man answered the question by driving the torch through the Aang float, setting it alight, and then proceeding to the Roku and Kyoshi floats with similar intent.
The crowd roared.
Not in horror. In approval.
Sokka's jaw stopped mid-chew. Crumbs descended.
Katara turned to Odyn. "This was the bad feeling?"
"Part of it," he said. "I suspect this is not the worst part."
He was proven correct within the hour.
The mayor — a man named Tong, who had the particular energy of someone who has held a local office for long enough to begin confusing his personal preferences with civic authority — was, by the time Odyn had listened to approximately four minutes of the proceedings, the most comprehensively irritating official he had encountered in fifteen years of navigating a world full of them.
The crowd chanting Down with the Avatar would have been merely unfortunate in isolation. The farting noise from the back row would have been merely undignified. The cumulative effect of both, directed at Aang, who was standing in the middle of it with the patient expression of someone trying very hard to find the good faith in a situation that was offering him none—
Odyn stepped forward.
"ARE YOU ALL HEARING WHAT YOU'RE SAYING RIGHT NOW?"
The crowd went quiet with the reflexive silence of people who have been addressed at unexpected volume by someone who means it.
He did not shout again. He didn't need to. The silence was sufficient.
"You," — this to Tong, who straightened with the instinctive alarm of a man discovering he has been singled out — "are supposed to hear all parties before you reach a conclusion. That's not a courtesy, it's the foundation of the concept you're claiming to practice." He let that sit for exactly one breath. "My friend did nothing. One person's past is not another's guilt. If you want to have a real conversation about this, then give Aang a real trial. Otherwise—"
"You are quite rude," Tong said, with the gathered dignity of a man who has decided that offense is his best available weapon. "And not welcome here."
The look Odyn gave him contained several things. Tong decided, on some animal level below conscious thought, that he did not want to continue this particular line.
"He'll stand trial," Aang said, stepping forward with the calm certainty of someone who has already decided this. "I'll accept the terms."
Odyn looked at him. Something in Aang's expression was settled in the way things become settled when a person has stopped negotiating with themselves about what the right thing to do is.
He stood back.
Alright, he thought. Your call.
The Jail — Shortly After
The bail situation was, Aang had to acknowledge, a genuine oversight on his part. The concept that water tribe currency might not be accepted everywhere in the Earth Kingdom was the kind of practical detail that fell through the cracks of an education conducted primarily in temples and in the air.
The five of them stood in the cell block looking at him with expressions arranged along a spectrum from exasperation to reluctant sympathy.
Katara had her hand over her face.
Asura had his arms folded.
Goku was looking around the cell with the expression of someone making the best of a situation.
Odyn was tapping his foot, which he did when the alternative was saying something he would regret.
"How was I supposed to know they wouldn't take Water Tribe money?" Aang asked.
Sokka appeared to have recovered some of his former energy, presumably because someone else's poor planning had temporarily displaced his own grief.
"You know what? Some people don't like you. So what? There's an entire nation of Firebenders who hate you. That's not a small group. We can break you out of here — it'd take maybe thirty seconds—" He demonstrated the relevant motions, which were enthusiastic and somewhat theatrical. "Swish swish swish! Huoooahhh — Air Bending Slice! Done. We're gone."
Katara sighed. "What Sokka is trying to say — in his way — is that saving the world probably requires you to be outside of a cell."
"I can't leave with people thinking I'm a murderer," Aang said quietly. "I need to face this."
Odyn looked at the younger boy — the old eyes in the young face, the weight that he carried so lightly you could almost forget it was there.
"Okay," he said.
"Okay?" Katara asked.
"He's made his decision. Now we help him make it the right one." He looked at Sokka. "You said you were a detective."
Sokka straightened immediately. "I've been called that, yes."
"The evidence you need won't be in this village. Where would it be?"
Sokka pulled out — from somewhere — a magnifying glass and a pipe that produced bubbles rather than smoke, which he appeared to regard with complete seriousness. He paced. He considered. He blew a bubble.
"...Kyoshi Island," he said.
"Then that's where we go," Odyn said.
Kyoshi Island — A Visit Without the Avatar
The village received them with the warmth it had apparently decided to extend to anything associated with Aang, then paused when it became clear that Aang himself was not among the arriving party. The small girl with wide eyes and strong opinions found them first.
"Where's Aangy?"
"Taking care of something," Katara said, and then spent the next several minutes explaining the situation to a village chief who received the information — your beloved Avatar is currently in jail for a murder committed by one of his past lives three centuries ago — with the particular grace of someone who has been alive long enough to stop being surprised by most things.
Behind Katara, Odyn, Goku, and Asura had already acquired a small audience. The Kyoshi Island villagers were a curious people, generally well-disposed toward strangers who had not arrived on warships, and three teenage boys with unusual features and no immediately apparent hostile intent fell comfortably into the category of things worth investigating.
Odyn crouched down to the small girl's level and answered her questions with the specific patience he reserved for children, which was distinct from his patience with adults in that it was entirely genuine rather than partly performance. The girl wanted to know if he was friends with Aang (yes), whether he could bend fire (yes, among other things), whether his eyes were actually on fire (no, but he understood the question), and whether Aang would come back and visit (he would do his best to ensure it).
By the time the shrine visit was complete and Sokka had discovered the evidence he needed with the methodical satisfaction of someone who had actually been paying attention to the shadows in an old painting, Odyn had also had a conversation with the village chief that he filed away in the part of his mind where information waited until it became useful.
The Kyoshi Warriors had left to fight in the war.
Suki was among them.
They had apparently been moved by their previous encounter with the group.
He thought about this on the flight back. About the way the world kept turning out to be smaller than it presented itself.
The Trial of Avatar Aang
Mayor Tong's judicial philosophy, as expressed through his handling of the trial, could be summarized in the following manner: he said what happened, Aang said what happened, and then Mayor Tong decided who was right. When Odyn pointed out, with restrained precision, that this was not what the word justice was typically understood to mean, Tong offered the explanation that it was "just us," and then left the room laughing.
The door closed behind him.
No one spoke for a moment.
"What an idiot," Odyn said, and pressed his palm to his face.
"I think I lost several brain cells listening to him," Goku said.
"We watch the trial," Asura said. "If it goes badly, we leave. Quickly."
The morning of the trial arrived with the particular irony of beautiful weather. The amphitheater filled. The statue of Chin the Great observed the proceedings from the clifftop with the permanent expression of a man who had been depicted in stone at his most self-satisfied and had not, in three centuries, had the opportunity to revise the impression.
Tong's opening statement was seventeen words and contained approximately the same intellectual rigor as a hat thrown at a wall.
Odyn counted to ten. Then he counted to twenty. Then Katara walked forward and attempted to call a witness, Tong objected, and Odyn stopped counting.
"THAT IS NOT HOW A PROPER COURT SYSTEM WORKS." His voice went up the way a controlled fire goes up when it is given additional oxygen — not uncontrolled, but considerably larger than it had been a moment before. Tong sat down as though his legs had made the decision independently of the rest of him. "Sit down and listen."
Tong sat. The amphitheater sat. Even the wind seemed to pause briefly out of professional courtesy.
Katara, with the composure of someone who had been waiting for exactly this opening, called her witness.
What followed was not, strictly speaking, what any of them had anticipated.
The tornado came from somewhere that wasn't the sky. The air went cold and then warm and then something else entirely. Aang — standing in Kyoshi's makeup and costume at the center of the square — went very still, and then his stillness became a different kind of stillness, and then Avatar Kyoshi was standing where Aang had been, wearing Aang's face but carrying seventeen hundred years of something that was not a fifteen-year-old's patience.
She spoke. Clearly. Directly. Without the particular anxiety that truth sometimes carries when it expects to be disbelieved.
She had created Kyoshi Island. She had split it from the mainland herself. Chin the Great had stood on the peninsula as the rock fell away beneath him and fallen into the sea. She had not pushed him. She had simply declined to stop what was happening. The distinction mattered to her.
The confession was not quite what the evidence they had gathered had been building toward.
When the tornado released Aang back into his own body and deposited him into Katara's arms, swaying gently, he looked up at her with the disorientation of someone returning from a very long distance.
"So what happened?" he asked.
Katara looked at him with the expression of someone choosing their words.
"You... confessed," she said.
"We genuinely tried," Asura said.
"The evidence was excellent," Odyn said. "The witness undermined it completely."
Tong emerged from behind the Wheel of Punishment where he had apparently been sheltering during the manifestation of a centuries-dead Avatar.
"Guilty!" he announced, with the recovered authority of a man who has just realized things have gone his way despite everything. "Bring out the Wheel!"
The wheel was large. Its sections included several options that Odyn was reasonably confident violated a number of laws in several nations. The section marked Community Service was narrow. The section marked Boiled in Oil was generous.
He watched the wheel slow. Watched it pass Strangled by a Platypus Bear and Eaten by Sharks. Watched Katara's hands press together with the concentration of someone attempting to influence a spinning wheel through willpower.
The wheel stopped.
"Boiled in oil," the guard announced.
Then the first bomb bounced into the amphitheater.
The Rough Rhinos
Mongke did not appear to be a man who specialized in reading rooms, but even he seemed briefly uncertain about the situation he had ridden into — an occupied amphitheater, a wheel of punishment, a bald twelve-year-old in Avatar Kyoshi's makeup looking at him with confused resignation.
"Show me your leader," he said, "so I may—" He paused. His companion's Guan Dao helpfully demonstrated the intended conclusion by slicing through the statue of Chin the Great, which collapsed in sections. "Dethrone him."
A villager pointed at Tong, who was attempting to become invisible behind the Wheel of Punishment.
Tong, apparently concluding that his options had narrowed significantly, pointed at Aang.
"You! Avatar! Do something!"
Aang looked at him with the particular serenity of someone who had just been sentenced to boiling in oil and found that a fire nation invasion had, remarkably, improved his afternoon.
Odyn cleared his throat.
"He'd like to, Mayor. But the sentence was boiling in oil. Technically he's in custody."
Tong looked at the Wheel. Looked at Mongke's riders advancing on the village. Looked at the Wheel again.
He walked to it. Moved the pointer to Community Service.
"There! Community service! Now serve this community and get rid of those rhinos!"
The thing about Mongke, Odyn discovered in the first thirty seconds of their engagement, was that he was fast for a larger man and genuinely powerful in the way of someone who had been using fire aggressively for long enough that aggression had become structural to his technique. The approach was total commitment on every attack — overwhelming force, maximum temperature, designed to end the engagement before the opponent had time to think.
It was, as strategies went, effective against most opponents.
Odyn sidestepped the first charge and felt the heat wash past him like a wall. He redirected the second blast back into Mongke's path, forcing a dodge that cost him momentum. When Mongke came the third time — faster, angrier, the full alley lit up with a blast that would have done serious damage to anything that stayed in it — Odyn went through it.
Not around. Not back. Through — jumping, absorbing the fire in controlled increments as he passed through the column of it, each piece taken in and processed, the heat distributed rather than resisted, coming out the other side slightly warmer than he'd started and positioned exactly where he needed to be.
He was already gone when Mongke turned to find him.
He reappeared at the angle that offered the most mechanical advantage, propelled by a focused kiai that transferred every available joule of kinetic energy into a single point of contact with Mongke's midsection. The man went through the fence with the physics of something that has been hit very hard by something moving very fast, and landed in a manner that discouraged immediate further participation.
Odyn landed. Dusted off his hands. Looked toward the alley entrance where the rest of the group had converged.
Sokka was holding his boomerang.
He was beaming.
"Boomerang! You do always come back!"
Goku had deflected an arrow. Asura had quietly resolved a situation involving an archer who had been about to make Sokka's afternoon considerably worse. Both of them looked at the warrior with the fond exasperation of people who have accepted that Sokka is going to monologue briefly and this is simply part of the experience.
"I'm probably smarter than people give me credit for," Sokka reflected, following after Goku.
"Probably," Goku agreed, which was technically true without being the agreement Sokka thought he was getting.
That Evening
The fireworks were genuine, which was more than could be said for the festival food.
Mayor Tong, in the grip of civic gratitude and the specific goodwill of a man who has just been saved from several things he deserved, declared a new Avatar Day — one that honored, in his official language, the day Avatar Aang and friends saved us from the Rough Rhino Invasion. The unfried dough cookies were shaped like Aang's head and had the particular texture of something created by a kitchen committee that had prioritized symbolism over palatability.
Sokka ate one and stared at it.
"This is by far the worst town we've ever been to," he said.
"The fireworks are nice," Goku offered.
"The fireworks are fine," Sokka conceded. He looked at the cookie. "The cookies are not fine."
Aang slurped the last of his into his mouth with audible commitment. Katara nibbled hers with the diplomatic focus of someone determined to find something positive to say about it. Odyn looked at the one being offered to him and concluded that some invitations could be respectfully declined.
"Thanks, Aang. I'm good."
He sat back slightly from the firelight, watching the group — the specific, ordinary miracle of them, gathered around a fire in a village that had been hostile that morning and was now shooting fireworks in their honor. Sokka and Katara bickering gently. Aang watching the sky with the expression he sometimes got when the world was being beautiful and he had noticed. Goku trying to convince Asura that the cookie might be improved by a specific approach to eating it.
The center holds, Odyn thought.
As long as these people are together, the center holds.
Somewhere on the Sea — Aboard Azula's Vessel
The stars were out over the ocean in the way they are over open water — unobstructed, present in a quantity that makes the usual sky look like a rough draft.
Azula stood at the prow with her arms behind her back and did not look at them.
She was, not for the first time this week, being irritated by a memory. This was an experience she found deeply unfamiliar and correspondingly aggravating. She was not in the habit of being irritated by memories. Memories were data. Data did not irritate — it informed, it clarified, it provided the material for decisions. That was all memories were for.
You don't have to follow the same path.
She pressed her fingertips against her sternum briefly, in the involuntary gesture of someone checking whether something aches that should not ache.
The boy had said it like it was obvious. Like it required no courage and no calculation and no understanding of the architecture of the world she had been born into. Like she had simply not considered the option and was one gentle observation away from reconsidering everything.
And the infuriating part — the genuinely, unreasonably infuriating part — was that she had not been able to find the easy counter to it. She had looked for it in every quiet moment since. She had the argument prepared, the rebuttal organized, the dismissal ready.
And every time she ran the sequence, it dissolved before she could deploy it, because something underneath it had already agreed with him before she could stop it.
You're not your father.
She clenched her jaw.
"Your highness." The soldier was careful about her current expression, which suggested he had either good instincts or prior experience. "Where to?"
Azula turned. Composed her face back into the thing it was supposed to be.
"Set a course for the Earth Kingdom Colonies," she said. "We have an old friend to visit."
Lo and Li appeared at her flanks with the permanence of fixtures.
"Is that wise?" one asked.
"More than our current approach." She looked ahead at the dark horizon, and felt somewhere behind the calculation and the composure the small, specific pull of something she would not be naming yet. "The last encounter taught me something. I've been approaching this like a pursuit."
"And now?" the other asked.
The corner of her mouth moved a fraction.
"Now I approach it differently." A pause. "Odyn Albanar Chevalier made me realize something I should have understood from the beginning."
Ty Lee, who had been listening from a discreet distance, looked up with the expression of someone who has been trying very hard not to smile.
She knows, Ty Lee thought. She doesn't know that she knows yet. But she knows.
She said nothing. She looked at the stars, thought of a certain saiyan she had not seen in what felt like a very long time, and smiled quietly into the ocean air.
The ship turned toward its next heading.
And somewhere in the Earth Kingdom, Team Avatar sat around a fire eating cookies of dubious quality under genuine fireworks, equally unaware that the world was moving all its pieces toward positions that would soon become impossible to ignore.
To be continued...
Next: Chapter Six — Those Bound by Fate V: The Blind Bandit and Her Guard
Ending theme:
Ending: Eyes (Twin Star Exorcists ending 1)
Visuals: replace the characters with Odyn (being the boy instead of Rokuro) and Azula( being the girl instead of Benio) Flashes of the other characters in the cast in between (Odyn thinking about team avatar before thinking about Azula at the end. Azula is shown thinking about her friends, Ozai, Iroh, and Zuko before it stops on an image of Odyn). The song ends as Odyn and Azula are then seen staring towards each other, a distance apart.
Hey everyone, I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! This one was a little light on the action side of things, but there are some important characters that will be introduced soon so I felt like I needed to go into the more "mellow" part of the last airbender story of volume 3. Some events of the chapters will be the same as in the cannon story, but there will also be differences given that there are more characters a part of the main cast in this story. I'm attempting to flesh out and pace the pairing of Odyn x Azula more this time around, but we'll see how it goes lol 😂 . I'm not the best by any means at this kind of thing, I'll do my best to bring a satisfactory pace of the pairings without making them come to fruition too quickly or without reason.
As for the other characters being introduced soon, I just had a thought: should one of the mystery Characters be with Toph instead of Asura this time? Or... maybe there's a pairing with Suki perhaps? It is worth thinking about at least. For now, these are the pairings for the story:
Odyn x Azula (main pairing)
Sokka x (?)
Asura x Toph
Zuko x Mai
Suki x (?)
Goku x Ty Lee
The ones with question marks meaning those characters haven't been introduced yet, so I can't reveal their names. Anyways, hopefully you guys like this chapter, I'll be working on the next one soon. So until next time!
