What if The Unbeloved were in the Avatar universe?
Book 1: Fire
The Twins in the Iceberg
Before we get started this What if will include our characters Hiruko and Awashima from our manga "The Unbeloved" They will have the same abilities as they do in the manga however when the events of Chapter 0 take place they don't suffer from any sort of amnesia. Instead they are the same version they were when they attacked Izanagi and Izanami. They are colder and more calculating. How will this affect the world of Avatar.
Find out below.
Sokka and Katara, two teenage siblings living in the South Pole, discover the avatar or so they think. Trapped in this iceberg are a pair of twins. After Katara frees them, the twins get their bearings.
Their unfreezing attracts the attention of the fire nations Zuko who is a short distance away.
Hiruko and Awashima are seen floating in the air looking around them before taking notice of Sokka and Katara.
Katara: Have there ever been two avatars at the same time?
Sokka: I don't know but why is that one missing arms and legs? Also why are they naked?!
Hiruko and Awashima look at themselves and then each other before creating energy clothes that look like clothes Sokka and Katara are wearing. With Hiruko proceeding to create energy limbs.
They begin to float down towards them.
Awashima: Why have you freed us?
Katara: We were looking for the avatar to help us.
Hiruko: The Avatar?
Awashima: Help with what exactly?
Sokka: The fire nation they are trying to take over the world.
Awashima and Hiruko look at each other.
Hiruko and Awashima: Through us a new era of order and structure will prevail no matter what it takes.
The two say with a very cold and calculating tone. Their tentacles sprout out towards Sokka and Katara. They are able to see the past and learn the general whereabouts of the fire nation.
Sokka and Katara survive this painful technique but pass out.
Awashima: Interesting
Hiruko: They aren't Yokai but...
Awashima: But they threaten the order of the world. They threaten the structure of peace.
Hiruko: Well I'm excited to see this bending of theirs.
Awashima: I wonder if it'll be as effective as mothers magic or dads spear.
Hiruko: Only one way to find out.
Hiruko says joyfully.
The twins Hiruko and Awashima fly off towards the fire nation.
Unfortunately for the water tribe pair Zuko is heading right for their location. Capturing them while unconscious for questioning. Meanwhile Iroh spots a glacier that appears to have someone inside meditating.
"The Avatar! I found him." Zuko exclaims with a prideful look on his face.
As ship gets closer to the glacier Zuko enthusiastically jumps off and prepares a fire blast.
"Zuko wait a moment!!" Iroh exclaims.
It's too late Zuko begins to fire a blast at the frozen Avatar (to defrost him) But just as the flames hit the ice. The avatars eyes open and a strong gust of wind pushing Zuko back onto the ship slamming onto the railing.
Aang looks around confused as to where he is and sees the ship. He jumps onto the ship.
Aang: Sorry about that are you alright?
Aang asks while reaching out a hand to help Zuko up.
Zuko: Get away from me!!
Flaring up his flames. Aang looks slightly confused and steps back.
Iroh: "Forgive my nephews rudeness Avatar."
Aang: It's ok. I'm Aang, what's your name?
Iroh: I am Iroh and that is my nephew Zuko.
Aang: Nice to meet you.
Aang says with a smile but just then he hears soldiers screaming. they are firing at a giant animal. A flying bison.
Aang: Appa!!!
Aang looks angry.
Aang: Why are you attacking Appa?!
Aang begins to charge forward to defend the flying bison but thinking quick Iroh knocks the young avatar out with a strong strike to the back of the neck.
Iroh: Well that could've been worse.
Zuko: Is this really the avatar? You were able to take him out with a single strike.
Iroh: He is young and inexperienced but this boy is indeed the avatar.
Zuko clenches his fist for moment thinking back to the gust of wind that nearly knocked him out. Appa looks sad before flying into the clouds.
Guards: It got away.
Zuko: Forget the animal. Throw the avatar in the cell with the others!!
Zuko commands some of the guards on the boat.
Aang is thrown in a cell with Sokka and Katara.
Fire Nation Soldier 1: Can'[t believe this is the actual Avatar.
Fire Nation Soldier 2: Expected someone taller.
Sokka and Katara who's now conscious look at each other worriedly.
Sokka: If this is the avatar?
Katara: Who were the other two?
Meanwhile floating above the fire nation are the twins Hiruko and Awashima. Before the fire nation can react the twins charge a massive energy blast.
The people are terrified and before the military can fully mobilize a portion of the fire nation capital is decimated. The blast is so devastating that blast can be seen from the Wulong forest.
As the smoke clears Hiruko and Awashima land in the center of devastation. They look around at what's left of the nation.
Hiruko: That ends their world conquest
Awashima looks around energy tendrils flowing from her back.
Awashima: Not yet.
Hiruko also begins to sense people all around them.
Remnants of the fire nations military attempt to attack the twins. They fire intense flames at the pair. The twins are completely engulfed by the flames.
Cutting through the flames the tendrils burst forth impaling several soldiers pulling them into fire.
Fire Nation Soldier: AHHHH!!!!!
Several soldiers scream.
The remaining soldiers stop firing their flame attacks. However the flames are still seen roaring. Eventually it condenses and the energy outfits that the pair were wearing now look like flames. Their essence abilities assimilating with the fire bending techniques.
Fire nation soldier: impossible are they the avatar!!!
Hiruko: That's right we are the Avatar and your conquest ends now
Hiruko smirks and looks at Awashima seemingly for confirmation.
She also puts on a terrifying smile.
Awashima: It seems we command the elements. The magical properties of mothers sword has been interwoven into our being. Let's end this and see what else we can do.
Hiruko nods. The pair bend the fire around them and incinerate everything in sight.
Hiruko: We should go tell Sokka and Katara that the fire nation is gone. We haven't been gone long so they should be close to where we left them.
Awashima: No let's explore this world first and then visit them. We acquired their memories when we linked into their minds.
Hiruko: Fine.
Hiruko says somewhat dissapointed.
The twins fly into the air leaving the fire nation behind. From what's left of the captial Azula and Ozai are seen furious at what's been done to their home.
Fire Lord Ozai: The avatars will pair for what they have done to home.
Azula: Our home!!!! HOW DARE THEY!!! I'll have their heads for this!!!
Ozai looks at his daughter who is failing to hold back frustrated tears.
Fire Lord Ozai: I never believed that our home would fall under such attack. I've failed you and this nation.
Azula never seeing this side of her father looks astounded. She wipes her tears listening
Fire Lord Ozai: We will have our revenge and rise from the ashes a stronger nation. Never again will such calamities strike our land.
Azula regains her composure and nods at what her father has said.
Fire Lord Ozai: Come Azula there is much work to be done.
Azula: Yes father.
Azula says as the pair walk through smoke and the decimated city.
What will become of Aang, Katara and Sokka now that they are prisoners of Zuko and Iroh? What will happen when they reach a decimated Fire Nation? Where are the twins Hiruko and Awashima and what will become of the world if the pair are left unchecked.
