Summary
WARNING: This is a sequel, and picks up right where the first fic ended. The summary below contains spoilers for the events of the first fic, so please read that before continuing, or read this at your own risk.
After successfully escaping capture, Zuko and his friends rush to a safe haven that Aang knows about. What they find there shocks them, but that is far from the last shock they will face, and far from the end to their hardships. Though Zuko has finally come to terms with his role as the Avatar, now that his secret is out, he and his friends face an uphill battle to get him the training he needs in order to come into his destiny and, maybe, save the world.

Summary
100 years ago, Fire Lord Sozin lead the Fire Nation into war against the other three nations, completely wiping the Air Nomads off the map and turning his sights to the Water Tribes and the Earth Kingdom. The Avatar, the sole person responsible for the peace of the world, vanished around this time and hasn't been seen since, and many have begun to lose hope that he even still exists.
Aang was never the Avatar. His twin sister, Anya, was saved at birth because she was the Avatar's next incarnation. Now, a hundred years have passed and as the last Airbender, it's his jobs to teach the current Avatar airbending...whoever that may be.
For three years, Zuko has searched for the Avatar at the behest of his father, along with the promise to have his honor returned to him. Desperate, Zuko has put every once of his being into this search, and now his luck seems to be turning around. An airbender - the last in the entire world - has been sighted in the Southern Water Tribe, and Zuko just knows that he knows where the Avatar is - if the nomad isn't the Avatar himself.
Yet he keeps insisting he's not. So if he's not the Avatar, then who is? And what is going on with these damn dreams?

Summary
“These are feelings you might want, Katara,” he said, voice low, warm, dangerous in its honesty. “Please… don’t give up on them just yet.”
“And as for what’s wrong…” he paused, his gaze drifting for a moment before locking with mine again. “I needed you too,” he said quietly. “And I wasn’t enough for you.”
“Do you know how long I’ve waited to hear that?” he asked, voice barely a whisper. “How many nights I stayed awake thinking about that time we had… before you left?”
“Then why didn’t you come back?” he asked. “Why didn’t you come back to me, Katara?”

Summary
Fire. Air. Water. Earth.
The sages used to tell stories of the old days: a time of terror when the tyrant Avatar suppressed all people and divided the land between the Fire Nation, Air Nomads, Water Tribes, and Earth Kingdom. But everything changed when Sozin’s comet allowed the Fire Nation to fight back. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, stood in the way of a prosperous and united world. But just when we almost managed to defeat him, he vanished.
A hundred years have passed, but the world cannot truly be united until the Avatar is found. Three years ago, my father entrusted me with a sacred task: to find and capture the Avatar, and thereby redeem a great shame and failure of the Fire Nation. And although many believe this is an impossible task, I still have hope. I still believe that, somehow, I will find the Avatar and restore honor to the Fire Nation and to myself.
***
AU where the Avatar Spirit left Aang in the iceberg and was eventually reborn in everybody’s favorite grumpy fire prince.

Something Entirely New by Vespera_The_Evening_Star

Summary
“I…. I’m sorry uncle. Just please-” His voice cracked on that word, oozing with emotion, “-leave me alone. I don’t want to be mad..”
The ‘at you’ part of the sentence hung in the air wordlessly and he closed his eyes letting his head hang. For a moment the air was still before it filled with the soft patters of Uncle leaving before it merged with the waves beating against the ship.
“He knows something troubles you.” Kyoshi said. He could feel her gaze boring into his flesh. He let himself slide down the door feeling drained.
OR
Zuko was born the avatar unbeknownst to the world and himself. But he knows there is something strange about him. Especially when some tall Green lady, in face paint follows him (How come no one seems to see her?)
Oh and probably when his mother freaked out about him bending water.
But everything fine.
Its perfectly fine.
He's just... something entirely new. :)
