Summary
The takeover of Ba Sing Se went splendidly for Azula. She got exactly what she wanted (at least, that's what she told herself) and did what she had been sent to do. She could return home to the Fire Nation as a victorious princess, once again proving her worth as the future Fire Lord.
One can only assume that, if things went well for Azula, then they did not end so well for Team Avatar.
Aang has to find himself a firebending teacher, and he knows time is running out before Ozai wreaks havoc during Sozin's comet. (which includes, but is not limited to, abandoning his daughter for world domination, causing the second genocide but it's Earth Kingdom edition, and overall being the jerk everyone knows he is)
Will Aang find a teacher?
Oh, yes he will.
He just has to keep his options open.
(aka Azula questions her life choices, Katara thinks bloodbending can be good, and everything descends into chaos for a while)

Summary
Keya is a poor girl living in Ba Sing Se in desperate need of a well-paying job to leave her home. She comes across the Jasmine Dragon, the newest tea shop on her block that no one can stop talking about. She tries her luck at securing a job there, being previously praised for her tea-making skills, and encounters a friendly, bustling old uncle Mu-shi and his cold, aloof yet devastatingly handsome nephew Lee. What begins as an opportunity to earn money and keep herself afloat ends with conflicting and intense feelings, shared secrets, adventures under the moonlight and a whole lot of fire.
Or, a slow burn romance between Prince Zuko and an original female mc, and a loving uncle and father figure Iroh (The Gaang is mentioned)

Summary
Kiyoi runs away from her home on the Jasmine Isles by stowing-away on a Fire Navy ship hoping to make it to the Fire Nation mainland. But as destiny would have it, Kiyoi stows away on the one ship in the Fire Navy that is forbidden from those waters. Stuck on a ship that can’t take her to the one place she wants to go, Kiyoi pleads with the kind old man that catches her stealing from the kitchen to take her in as a servant. And Iroh has no problem with that; the more the merrier. His scowling nephew, though, that’s another story.
How ironic that the stow away that should have been the Prince’s enemy would become his best friend. It was like Iroh always said: Destiny is a funny thing. But now as Kiyoi
flies away from Ba Sing Se, she wasn’t laughing. She was crying. Choosing your destiny wasn’t funny; especially when the person you love most in the world chooses wrong.TLDR: Zuko and his best friend Kiyoi are in denial that they are more than just friends. Over the years they find them self asking the same question again and again... WWSD: What would Sokka do?

Summary
Prince Zuko comes to the South Pole hunting the Avatar and instead gets blindsided by his furious betrothed: Lady Raven Arza, five feet of spoiled noble firebender who dodged her father's “you’re not allowed to go to war” rule by buying her own ship and chasing Zuko into it. She’s convinced he deserves to die; he’s convinced she’s lost her mind amidst her flurry of flaming whips. Unknown to both, an ancient weapon is about to awaken and change everything. Arzayanagi is a canon-divergent enemies-to-lovers epic.
Dedicated to my wife, who only vicariously loves me through my writings of Zuko.

Summary
Fire was an element that either commanded respect or consumed fear. Aelita Kenshin had experienced both feelings during her sixteen years of life. A firebending master reduced to nothing but the hollow shell of what she once was, the Butcher of Ba Sing Se no longer trusted the power beneath her fingertips.
The entire world believed the Avatar to be dead and nearly all of the Akira's world thought she was too. Forced to leave Aelita's body behind, Aang and the others are left to grapple with the grief that threatens to overwhelm them with only their desire for peace and justice pushing them forward.
Welcomed home as war heroes next to their sister, twin Princes Zuko and Zetzu are thrust back into the game of thrones, forced to face their demons. With tensions rising faster than Sozin's Comet approaches, it's soon clear that only one of them can be left to inherit their family's scorched legacy.
Fire is the element of power. The people of the Fire Nation have the desire and will to achieve what they want. Only time will tell if that power and desire will be too much to handle as the fate of the world is forged in fire.
Book Three of the series Akira: The Legend of Aelita.

Summary
War has a way of revealing monsters.
Mine just happened to be my father.
Myra is the daughter of Commander Zhao, raised within the Fire Nation’s military while quietly learning everything it never wanted her to know. Power is best wielded carefully. Knowledge is worth memorizing. And loyalty, when given blindly, only feeds the fire.
When the Avatar is revealed to be alive and Prince Zuko crosses her path once more, Myra begins to move subtly and deliberately leaving information where it will be found, aiding those her nation has forgotten, and wearing a phoenix’s mask to hide the cost of doing the right thing. -

Summary
It's been years since Zuko became the Fire Lord, and he's spent a lot of time trying to be a better person. Still brooding, at least he's more calm, self-reflective, and isn't actively trying to destroy the world.
Barley, on the other hand, has done no self-reflecting nor does she have the desire to. She's angry and brazen and her plans usually consists of: fight now, think later.
Which is exactly how she winds up in prison, and then in Zuko's care.
When they meet, it's like gas to a flame, a forest of dead leaves set ablaze, like a fire to a field of grain.
**COMPLETE (but still being edited for grammar, conciseness etc), thank you everyone for sticking around for this story and I hope you enjoyed!**
