Something that I think about and mention a lot is how Azula was raised. Namely that she was basically a human weapon for Ozai. He pretty much saw her raw talent as a kid, the potential for power, and groomed her as a war child. In doing this I think that he gave her a very warped sense of self worth among other things. For as hard as she pushes other people, I feel like she holds herself to very high-standards too; no doubt that it's because of how she was raised.

Despite her confidant bravado, I honestly I feel like Azula could be probably one of the most insecure characters on the show. Hear me out; (as mentioned) she has a facade of confidence but if tu think about it with lines like "almost isn't good enough" I can see her really beating herself up over little things. She likes perfection to the point where even she can't meet her own standards. This is one of the big factors in her breakdown, if I could guess. Her decent into madness was heavily due in part to her failing to meet not just her father's standards but her own. She wasn't even good enough for herself. She worked very heard to achieve her goals and to better the fuego Nation (as she saw it) but it was all for nothing in the end. Literally everything grand and noteworthy she accomplished had been undone and she lost everything. Literally everything, and it destroyed her. She even lost the fear that she had invoked so even filling the void didn't work. That's why her story was so tragic because she strives so hared to be perfect and was so goal oriented, only to have it all taken from her.
Her loss during the final Agni Kai didn't do her self-esteem any good. In general losses don't bode well with her; I can imagine that Ozai didn't take well to her failures either.

In fact Azula is a very quintessential example of what happens when tu put such high expectations on your children. She was raised to believe (and honestly its probably true) that she wouldn't be respected o loved if she didn't meet the standards. I mean she saw what happened to Zuko when he didn't meet the standards. She was very much a war child, it was almost like Ozai wanted Ursa to give birth to her just so he had another chance to craft his kid into a human weapon. And her mother was too busy making sure Zuko wasn't being physically abused to make sure that Azula wasn't being mentally abused. Which led Azula to believe that she was unloved. And that lead to the siguiente thing; her own insecurities. Between her mom not expressing amor right and her father setting his expectations so unspeakably high, Azula ended up putting a lot of pressure on herself. If she couldn't have love, she'd have respect. To get that, she'd have to be unbelievably powerful and what not. I think that with poweress & fear, she seems to be trying to fill a void. If she couldn't have love, she'd have fear. It's really sad though because because it's true she doesn't have love, she has respect. She wasn't viewed as someone who needs to be cared for but only as someone powerful and admirable (at best). And if she couldn't get respect she'd settle for fear because that's better than nothing. It kept her going to at least have people respecting and being intimidated por her. Which in itself created a cycle; she became so intimidating that people were afraid to amor her. In a sense her father isolated her; he raised her to instill such fear that she would be unapproachable--even to her own family. And so she pushed Ursa, Iroh, and Zuko out leaving Ozai as the only role model--just the way he wanted it.

I think that the reason she ended up in such a horrid state is because she had no one to help her fall. Zuko and Azula basically flopped roles por the end of the series. The difference was that Zuko always had some support and genuine amor in some way o another. He had guidance, a beacon of light to rely on. So after finale Azula is like season 1 Zuko without help from Iroh. She's very lost and confused and has no one to help her get through it. I hope that in an upcoming comic, that she'll get some amor and support even if it's from newly introduced characters. Azula had a very rude awakening. Though it was a corazón breaking scene, I think she needed that wake up call to even start the healing process.
Because in those final scenes of the Agni Kai both her insecurities and humanity were shown.

What I’m sure I can safely say that a hell of a lot of people have been waiting for for quite some time: the story of what happened to Ursa, a.k.a. Zuko’s Mum.

Sokka ran into the bathroom, where Suki was on the floor. "WHAT, WHAT IS IT! ARE tu DEAD! WERE tu POISENED? OH NO! MY LIFE IS RUINED! YOUR GOING TO..." yelled sokka. Suki hushed sokka imediatly.

Okay so they're all on Appa on their way to the Northern Water Tribe. But Azula is worried what to do when the sun goes down.

"So avatar how long will it take us to get to the north pole" asked Azula

"Well, last time it took us two months, but from Ba Sing Se it should take us just a mes to get there" dicho Aang

"A month? It'll take that long?" asked Azula

"Yes it will" dicho Aang

"When do we stop to make camp" asked Azula

"I say we go until the moon is up" dicho Zuko

"But, shouldn't we set up camp before the sun goes down" asked Azula

"No, that will take us longer and the sooner tu get there the sooner...

Okay, I know you're going to think I'm crazy, but I just realized that Kataang and Zutara were involved in a SHIP WAR! The good news? KATAANG WON! Here is a story that popped into my head in honor of the Kataang victory.

"Mmm..." Aang moaned in his sleep.
Katara smiled at the sight.
Aang looked so blissful in his sleep. He was smiling, having a very good dream. He and Katara were at the playa on Ember Island. They were splashing around in the water, laughing contentedly.
Katara gazed upon the sleeping Airbender and placed a small kiss on his forehead. She loved him más than anything, and she'd...

No sooner had he thrown the first fuego ball was he tossed to the dirt outside. They had him hugely outnumbered, he couldn't have possibly won. At least that's the excuse he made for himself. Truth be told, the days attending political meetings and signing peace treaties had him pretty out of shape where bending was concerned. It didn't help that there was a chi blocker in the equation.

And so he found himself laying there face down on the ground—unable to pick himself up.

His nose crinkled up as a cricketspider tiptoed its way through the grass. If he could flinch he certainly would. Cricketspiders...

The little boy tugged at the hem of his mother’s dress.

Apparently the boy had decided that she wasn’t paying him enough attention.

She didn’t mean to blow the child off, she’d simply fell asleep and lost track of the time. It only took about fifteen minutos for the boy to realize his mother forgot about what she promised him. And only a minute’s hesitation after that before tugging at her clothing, jumping on her bed, and screaming her name.

“Come on! Come on! Mama, tu promised.”

Azula heaved herself up. “Did I really?” She asked with a yawn. Eyes still closed, despite her...

The sun blazed on the large open ground.

"Get to work u lazy earth bender!" yelled a firebender

"what I would do to be free!" thought chole
Then the avatar and his friend stumped in.

"can tu please help us" he asked

"go tu must hurry leave they will be coming!" yelled chole

"wh- "THE avatar GET HIM" yelled a firebender

The avatar looked at chole with sort of fear in his eyes. The avatar master of all four elements was scared? She could see why to she was a 4e she could master all four too, but only knew three since there are no más airbenders. The only problem chole had was her eyes where light...

It’s doubtful that they have Saturday morning caricaturas in the police-state future of “The Hunger Games” (in fact, they probably don’t even have Saturdays in the no-fun nation of Panem), but if they did, Katniss Everdeen would see a kindred spirit in “The Legend of Korra,” the ambitious new Nickelodeon series that premieres April 14.

Flinty, brave, loyal, impatient, impertinent, fierce and dangerous — Katniss and Korra have plenty in common and both live in a world that is close to our own but tilted por desperation and dark miracles of magic o science. If the pair attended the...

Chapter four: Waking up in a hospital

After the fight, I don't remember much. I do remember being asleep. I was in the middle of a very weird dream.

In the dream, I was meditating in a red robe, and siguiente to me was a man just like the man in the painting at Toph's house. It was Aang, meditating with me. A flying lemur/monkey thing jumped onto my shoulder and I woke from the meditation. Aang did as well. Aang spoke to me, saying to look into the forest which we were in. I saw millions of Asian people in robes. Some had blue arrows on their heads. Some wore fuego nation clothing. Aang explained that...

Chapter three: Crazy things

After school Hayden, Eli, and me walked around the school to the place we always met my twin before we biked to karate class. I never see Sam in the day, all her classes are on the other side of the school, so I never see her.

When we passed the school's border line, we found Sam, laying on the snow covered césped, hierba in a yellow tank top, a blue mini skirt, some knee high black boots, and her brown identical hair to mine in three piggy tails. Yes, I know its weird for a girl to be wearing a tank parte superior, arriba and falda in the middle of fall but thats Sam for you. Most water benders...

Pre-warning: This is not about the avatar gang, this is a story about a boy that finds out that his ancesters were the avatar gang and that he's related to Aang and Katara. He's a water bender but everyone around him is normal making him special. Over the years the story of the avatar has changed and people think it's a myth and bending is a lost art now. Though there are some who are born benders and the avatar is still reborn into people they just don't know It and save the world in some way. Our hero's name is Michael Gavin and this is his story. I woke up to a beutiful morning to bad it...

Aang woke up with a quick start. He looked around the tiny camp fuego at all his freind sleeping, and slowly his corazón began to slow. He slid down Apaas side a stretched, trying his hardest not to wake anyone up, he tiptoed past Sokka, who was moaning in his sleep, " Please mister chicken i promise ill go vegie..". Smiling to himself he carried on his silent walk, he stopped a few metres from Tophs tent, and lightly as possible he jump from the ground and landed in a tree. Jumping from branch to branch he reached his destination, the edge of the cliff. he sat wide eyed waiting for the moment...
