#FIRELORDS PLAN SUCCEEDED FANFICTION PATCH#

So you have Ozai trying to move overland to a friendly location, likely with Fire Nation scouts looking for him. And if the Fire Lord is still alive, they seek to fix that. Fire Nation scouts are dispatched to the area to ascertain the truth, but Earth Kingdom rebels make their way there to do the same. There are rumors that the Avatar killed the Fire Lord, and rumors that the Fire Lord killed the Avatar. In the general public view though, there is nothing confirmed. With whatever number of men he can gather together, as I said before likely only a hundred or so, he sets off for the nearest Fire Nation military installation. His glee at victory quickly fades with the reality of the situation, and he knows he has to get moving. She reluctantly agrees to wait a little while longer, but she grieves for Aang, and worries a great deal about what became of her brother.ĭuring all this, Ozai is rounding up his survivors. She insists of seeking revenge, but between Hakoda and Zuko, they manage to convince her that it is not the best plan. But at this point, the prisoners have been released, and her father is there to comfort her. Katara, hearing the news third-hand from one of Zuko's new soldiers, is crushed. They now either load into the airship, or set out overland with Bumi and Toph earthbending them to make excellent time. He will mobilize several of the high ranking members of the White Lotus, such as Jeong Jeong, Bumi, Paku, and Piandao in order to try and capture Ozai, leaving the rest of the White Lotus to help with securing the city. Iroh, upon receiving word of Aang's death, will put on his general's cap and realize the situation as I described it above: Ozai is stranded with a small entourage in nominally friendly but contentious territory. Meanwhile, Sokka and company give the bad news to the White Lotus.įor the rest of this speculation, I will assume that Sokka went to Ba Sing Se, as the divergence of events is simply too great to address in one post. If Sokka instead goes to Ba Sing Se, Katara will simply be left worrying for days on end about not hearing from Aang, until military intelligence starts getting rumors of the Avatar's demise. With a bit of a talking to, she will instead see the importance of keeping Zuko on the throne something Aang died to make happen. If Sokka and crew make it to the Imperial City, the news will absolutely devastate Katara, and she will immediately decide to chase after Ozai. Fighting breaks out, and Katara will likely be forced to protect Zuko as he recovers until the prisoners are freed and can arm themselves in Zuko's defense. When word spreads to the nearby military bases, there will likely be some who decide to cast their lots in with Zuko, and some who stay loyal to Ozai. Whichever functionaries were still in the Imperial City likely acquiesce to him out of fear, and they begin the process of freeing those allies which are being held captive nearby, namely the Kyoshi warriors, as well as Water Tribe and Earth Kingdom soldiers captured during the invasion. Zuko claims the title of Fire Lord, and begins to consolidate his power.

Ba Sing Se was still liberated by the White Lotus after all, and Zuko and Katara still captured Azula.

Meanwhile, Sokka and crew turn their airship and start limping towards either the Fire Nation, or Ba Sing Se, whichever is closer. Since his show of force fails however, he still has to worry about any earthbender or Earth Kingdom rebels in the area while he tries to make his way to a Fire Nation military installation. So Ozai has, maybe, 100 soldiers tops, and is in nominally Fire Nation colony territory.

So they never make it any farther than that particular delta where the fight took place.Īdditionally, even with Aang defeated (and thus killed), Ozai is now stranded on that particular patch of Earth Kingdom territory, with only whichever survivors of the airships wash ashore nearby.

Aang kept him busy almost all the way through the comet, and Sokka/Toph/Suki took care of the rest of his holocaust zeppelins. Well, first off, Ozai's show of force fails anyhow.
