(A.N. I already said it before, but everyone in Avatar world will be aged up a few years aside from Aang, since it was a major part of his character that he was so young.)
Ty Lee felt as if she were floating on air.
For a moment she was able to release the tension that had been building up within her body since Azula's arrival, and just bask in the presence of the man who had been a constant in her life for the last several weeks.
She reveled in his scent as she breathed in through her nose, the heat of his body against hers as her clothes 'mysteriously' disappeared, the sound of his heart as it thundered within his chest, and the taste of his lips and tongue as she kissed him passionately.
Tyl Lee had kissed boys before, when she was flirting or having fun in the past, but NONE of them made her feel the way Alex was in that moment. They never made her feel so safe or secure, probably because she could beat them all up if she wanted.
It was like she was flying in a hurricane, and Alex had become the rock that would support her and keep her safe.
And then the moment ended.
"Tell me Ty Lee, who's your friend?"
Instantly, it was as if Ty Lee's entire body was doused with freezing water as she heard the tone of Azula's voice. And breaking off the kiss to turn towards her friend, Ty Lee's fears were confirmed when she saw the look in Azula's eyes. It was the look she got when she WANTED something, or in this case 'someone'.
Ty Lee could see Azula's eyes examining every exposed inch of Alex's body, evaluating him and obviously liking what she was seeing. So much so that Azula didn't even notice, or possibly didn't care, about Ty Lee's sudden nakedness. Instead, her eyes became glued to the spot between Alex's legs with obvious intrigue.
But then, a rough yet gentle hand brought Ty Lee's focus back to Alex's face. His gentle expression filled her gaze as he told her, "Just ignore her, Ty Lee. Right now it's just you and me."
Ty Lee felt as if her stomach was doing flips inside of her as her heart fluttered like a butterfly, making her wonder if this was how those boys she used to flirt with felt.
And the sensation grew stronger as Alex once again kissed her, filling her mouth with his taste and tongue, while his rough yet contradictory soft hands kneaded her butt.
On the other hand, Azula felt as if she had just been slapped.
'Just ignore her.'
Those three words echoed in her head, as no one once DARED to say such a thing about her in her entire life.
Azula was so stunned, that she didn't even notice Mime Jr. squirming out of her hands, and then running for cover to hide from her.
As the seconds ticked by, Azula's disbelief turned to rage as she gazed down at Alex while he continued making out and fondling Ty Lee. Of course, Azula only now realized she was naked.
Pushing that thought out of her head, Azula marched up to the couple so that she was standing right beside their heads with her arms crossed in front of her chest.
"Ehem!" She cleared her throat, somehow even making THAT sound like it was laced with venom and indignation.
"Yes miss yapper?" The man, Alex she believed he was called, asked irritably while breaking off the kiss with Ty Lee. Though Azula noted that his hands never left her butt.
"I shall forgive your insolence for not knowing who I am, peasant, but know that you are currently in the presence of none other than the daughter and current heir of the Fire Lord, princess Azula!" Azula declared with her nose in the air from pride and arrogance.
She let her words hang in the air for a moment, giving her future consort enough time to realize his folly and beg her for forgiveness.
Only, it never came.
"Haaa... Haaa..."
Instead, only the sound of Ty Lee panting could be heard, drawing Azula's attention back to them to see that the duo were now sitting before her instead of laying down make out like before.
Ty Lee was sitting in Alex's lap while leaning back into his chest now, as his hands were wrapped around to cup and massage her breasts as he wanted, and something BIG was sticking out between her legs, letting Ty Lee grind herself on it as her hips moved back and forth slowly.
"You- you insolent little PEASANT!" Azula practically shrieked as indignation and fury like nothing she ever felt before filled her.
Never had she been so...disregarded!
Never had someone slighted her in such a way!
Her shrieks caused Alex to look up at her, his expression one of annoyance from his time with Ty Lee being interrupted, AGAIN, as he said to Azula lazily,
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard you, princess yappy, of the yap nation, daughter of yappy the yap Lord. No need to get so hot and bothered."
Azula was dumbfounded.
NO ONE dared to disrespect herself, the Fire Nation, OR the Fire Lord in such a way, and certainly not all three in a single breath!
Literal blue flames, burning hotter and purer than any other in the Fire Nation, appeared in Azula's hands while literal smoke shot out of her nose and mouth as she exhaled.
"I'll show YOU hot and bothered!" Azula snarled while putting a foot forward and thrusting her fist at Alex with the intent to burn him and Ty Lee both to death with her fire bending.
As she did so though, Azula noticed Alex suddenly look directly at her, his eyes intense and judgmental as they seemed to pierce through to her very core.
No man had ever looked at Azula in such a way, so it took her a second to realize that the attack she intended to use against them, did not happen. Instead, there was simply a small puff of smoke where azure-blue flames were supposed to be.
"Huh?" Azula uttered in confusion, before directing a fierce look at Alex as she snarled, "What did you do?"
To answer her question, Alex actually rose to his feet with Ty Lee, all while still groping her breasts, and answered calmly, "did you really think I would allow you to hurt Ty Lee?"
His words stunned Azula, while Ty Lee shuddered in Alex's hands as a shiver went through her at his words.
It felt as if she were relying on Alex more and more with each passing second, first as a 'rock' to keep her 'grounded', and now as a shield to protect her from harm. Truly, no one in Ty Lee's life had ever made her feel this way, let alone a man. She thought she might become addicted to this feeling.
Meanwhile Azula's temper was the highest it had ever been, all while she tried to wrap her mind around Alex's words. Just what did he mean by 'allowing' her to hurt Ty Lee? She was the princess! Azula would do whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted!
Alex however just shook his head as if he could hear everything she were thinking, and stated firmly, "not anymore Azula. Until I decide otherwise, you will never fire bend again."
""!?!""
Both Azula and Ty Lee looked at Alex sharply at his statement, neither one scarcely believing what he just said.
"And who are you to dictate MY bending, peasant!" Azula snarled, willing flames to appear in her hands. But none did.
"I am the sun god." Alex declared as Azula was trying to ignite her flames, causing her to look up at him sharply right as the atmosphere in the tent suddenly changed.
Though there were no flames, Alex was suddenly as bright as the sun itself as his divine power radiated outwards, bearing down on Azula with heat and intensity like nothing she had ever felt before. Not even from her father, or her grandfather.
"Contrary to what the Fire Nation believes, fire is not 'destruction'. It is living, breathing energy that brings life and light to the world. How would life on this planet sustain itself without the light provided by the flames of the sun? Where would you all be if not for the warmth those very same flames provide? How can I allow someone to use such abilities if all they intend to use them for is destruction?"
As Alex spoke the blindingly golden light radiating from his body swirled around him in flames unlike anything Azula had ever seen before.
Though seeming golden in appearance, if one looked close enough then they could see hues and shades of colors in the flames that were unthinkable in normal circumstances. And not only that, Azula could feel LIFE from the flames as they swirled and breathed before her, shining their divine light down onto her.
And then, before she could react, those same flames suddenly surged at her like a tidal wave as they engulfed her body in their blazing brilliance.
Even as all of the clothing and accessories on her body were burned away, leaving her as naked as Alex and Ty Lee, Azula herself was unburnt despite the searing pain that assaulted her body as the flames swirled around her specifically. And then there was darkness.
'You are pitiable.'
"Who said that!?" Azula demanded of the disembodied voice, but no one answered.
Instead, a scene appeared of Azula when she was younger, a memory of the time when she first used her fire bending on one of the turtle-ducks in the royal pond. Her father, now Fire Lord Ozai, had showered her with praise for fire bending at such a young age. Her mother on the other hand looked at Azula with fear at her monstrous actions.
'Seeking only the approval of a monster that would only expect more, and more.'
Azula spun around to face the voice, but no one was there.
Then she was presented with another scene, one depicting her childhood with her two friends, Ty Lee and Mai. In this scene specifically, Azula bullied them into whatever she wanted when they were little. Teaching them to both fear and respect her.
'Inspiring only fear in others, preventing yourself from ever receiving their love.'
"Shut up! Who needs love anyways?! Not even my mother loved me! SHE thought I was a monster!" Azula roared at the disembodied voice.
"That isn't true Azula." Another voice replied, one Azula hadn't heard in many years.
The princess slowly turned to see the owner of said voice standing behind her, looking at her with the same sad eyes she always had, even as she spread her arms as if for a hug.
"I love you Azula. I always have, and I always will."
"LIES!" Azula shrieked as she tried to hit her mother, only for her to vanish like smoke.
Instead, another scene appeared of her mother, Ursa, and Ozai as they planned to kill Fire Lord Azulon together.
This happened after they had received word that Azula's uncle, Iroh, was returning from his siege of Ba Sing Se after losing his only son in the fighting. Ozai had claimed that Iroh was no longer fit to rule as Fire Lord after Azulon, earning him scorn from his own father for asking him to betray his firstborn.
Next however, Azulon had ordered Ozai to kill his own son, Zuko, so that he might learn of Iroh's pain. To prevent this, Ursa agreed to help Ozai kill his own father so that he could usurp the throne from his older brother. This in turn resulted in Ursa being banished, both because Ozai had no further use for her, and due to his fear that she may kill him like she killed his father.
The idea that her father exiled her mother out of FEAR stunned Azula, as she thought the man was entirely unable to feel such things. But the vision didn't stop there.
With Ursa out of the picture, Ozai readily began the process to turn Azula into his perfect tool, personally making sure she was being properly tutored in things like combat, fire bending, strategy, and command. Even though Zuko was technically still his heir.
That however changed when Zuko and Ozai had an Agni Kai, resulting in Zuko being burned across his face and subsequently banished for refusing to fight his own father. After this Azula officially became Ozai's heir, and received the proper instruction as such.
'Quite the man, your father. I suppose he is really intimidating and fearsome, so long as you are a woman or child.' The voice said once more in a condescending tone.
Though Azula wanted to snap back at the voice, she held her tongue as the visions continued with her studies and training.
No matter what she was trained in and learned, perfection was all that was allowed. Not only Ozai, but Azula herself refused anything less with absolute abhorrence, treating even the slightest hair out of place as complete and utter failure.
'So much stress for one so young. The kind of stress that usually breaks things.'
"You don't know what you're talking about." Azula snapped at the voice irritably, before the visions changed yet again.
This time they were showing her things that Azula had no knowledge of.
First she was sent to apprehend her uncle and brother as traitors to the Fire Nation, for which she recruited her two closest friends, Mai and Ty Lee. But then she crossed paths with a young boy unlike anyone she had ever seen, as indicated by his unusual garb, and shaved head that had an arrow tattooed on it.
But then she saw him control the air as naturally as breathing, before controlling water as well.
"The Avatar?!" Azula exclaimed, shocked that the Avatar was still alive.
It was assumed that the Avatar had perished a hundred years ago with the rest of the Air Nation, which was why the sole condition for Zuko's return was his capture.
But apparently he was alive if these visions had any truth to them, though only as a young boy for some reason.
Knowing the Avatar was alive only emboldened Azula as she grew determined to capture him before Zuko could, especially since she would have a headstart by knowing what he looked like. But the visions didn't end there.
The visions showed her clashing with the Avatar a few more times, one of which was during her attempt to invade the city of Ba Sing Se. Unfortunately she failed at that thanks to him and his companions, but then she managed to succeed by defeating a group of warriors and donning their uniforms to go undercover.
Not only did Azula successfully manage to take the city after that, but she also turned Zuko back to her side and killed the Avatar while taking her worthless uncle prisoner. A complete victory!
Or so she thought.
Then came the day of dark sun, the one day that fire benders would lose all of their bending abilities.
Not only did they learn that the Avatar was still alive when he came to assassinate Ozai, but Zuko also turned traitor completely while declaring his intention to teach the Avatar fire bending.
And things only escalated from there.
Azula would see her brother again when he would appear at the Boiling Rock, the most secure prison in the world. But then, she would be unable to defeat him thanks to the intervention of someone she would never see coming. Mai.
Due to her love of Zuko, Mai would help him escape along with several prisoners despite knowing that she would face Azula's wrath. But that wasn't all, because then TY LEE would also turn traitor, using her chi blocking abilities on Azula to protect Mai before both of them were captured and thrown in prison.
Suddenly Azula felt significantly more justified in her attempt to kill Ty Lee now with Alex before. But things didn't stop there.
After the betrayal of her two closest 'friends', Azula watched as her mind slowly began to collapse into insanity. She saw traitors everywhere she looked, and even her being declared the new Fire Lord was marred by her growing paranoia.
Finally, it came crashing down around her when Azula was defeated by Zuko and a water tribe peasant, leaving her insane as they threw her into a facility while Zuko was crowned Fire Lord, and started to rule alongside the Avatar.
"NO! THIS CANNOT BE!" Azula yelled into the darkness, refusing to believe the visions that had been shown to her.
'But it is. Or rather, it will be.' the voice from before replied.
'Balance is a necessity. If balance is destroyed, then chaos and destruction will follow.'
'Even if the Avatar failed, and Ozai wiped the Earth Kingdom off the face of the world, chaos and retribution would quickly find their way back to both of you for disturbing the balance. No matter what, your rule would be short. And your lives, along with all of your efforts, would be meaningless.'
"NO!" Azula shrieked in denial, refusing to believe that everything she had done, everything she WAS, was meaningless!
'Reality is often disappointing. Such is life.'
"NO! Such is YOUR life maybe! I am Azula! Princess of the Fire Nation and future Fire Lord!" She declared desperately, though more for herself than the voice.
'An empty title, to match an empty throne.' the voice replied, showing Azula a vision of the throne room of the Fire Nation, only for it to crumble into dust and waste away.
'Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.'
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Azula screamed as she fought to deny the reality of what she was seeing, that everything she fought for was truly meaningless.
At the same time, numerous visions appeared before her before fading rapidly to be replaced by another one.
"I love Zuko, more than I fear you."
"I'm sorry Azula, but I can't join you on your quest."
"Such a shame. And you had such beautiful hair."
"I'm sorry it had to end like this, brother."
"No you're not..."
"You're weak, pathetic. A failure!"
"ENOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGH!"
Azula screamed as she fell to her knees, sobbing.
Never before had she felt so hollow, so vulnerable and weak.
Everything she had ever worked for was for nothing, and she would end up alone in the world because of it.
"You don't have to be."
"..."
Azula looked up slowly to see a hand stretched out at her through the darkness.
"Do you desire power?"
"..."
"I can give you the chance to become more powerful than any fire bender could ever dream."
"Or perhaps you want meaning? I can grant you the greatest honor and duty there is."
"Or maybe love? I can show what love is, so that you may also learn to love in return."
"Or maybe you want all three? If so, then grasp my hand and take the first step towards your destiny."
Azula didn't know what it was that made her move in that moment. Maybe it was her newfound sense of weakness and futility, hoping for something to cling to. Or maybe it was the drive for power that was promised, regardless of the price she would have to pay.
Regardless, she found herself taking the offered hand that readily pulled her to her feet, and the darkness around her shattered like glass.
In its place, Azula once again saw the swirling multicolored flames that had surrounded her before. Only, she was no longer alone within them.
Standing before her was Alex, tall and proud as his mere presence easily dwarfed her own. Azula could feel the heat radiating from his body that put even the beautiful flames around them to shame.
He then raised one of his hands up to her chin, brushing one of her nipples as he did so and making her realize her nakedness, and made her look up at him while he gazed down at her intensely.
"Do you swear to serve me Azula? From this moment until the end of time"
"..."
"I do..." She breathed out.
"Do you promise to wield your flames as I wish? And not for your own rage or agenda?"
"I do." She answered in a more firm voice.
"Then you are mine. You belong to me from now, until time itself comes to an end." Alex declared.
"Yes!" Azula declared back, before the mountain of a man leaned down and sealed her lips with his own.
Azula had kissed one guy in her life before now, but that kiss was nothing like the kiss she was currently experiencing. It was as if she was being swept away by a tidal wave of fire and passion from the mere contact.
But then the kiss broke, and Azula looked up at him in confusion before she felt Alex pushing down on her shoulders until she sank to her knees. Putting her face level with his VERY impressive cock.
"Show me your devotion." Alex commanded, stunning Azula momentarily before she smiled.
"Of course, my master." She purred while grasping the member with one hand, and opening her mouth to engulf the tip at the same time.
...
*Earlier*
"What are you doing to her?" Ty Lee asked worriedly as she watched the golden flames swirl around Azula.
"She's fine. I'm just giving her a new perspective." Alex answered, not alleviating Ty Lee's worries in the slightest. He didn't let her dwell on them though, as Alex then proceeded to tumble back to the bedroll with Ty Lee on the bottom this time.
In actuality, Alex didn't want to put too much effort in Azula due to just how broken of a person she was. It would probably take AT LEAST a decade of therapy to unravel that bag of cats.
So he decided to take the quick route of breaking Azula completely, before building her back up in the way he wanted her. It was definitely a scummy thing to do to her, especially considering that he was doing almost exactly what Ozai had done her entire life, but Alex didn't care.
If it worked, then great! If not, then he would be applying a slave brand to her anyways to keep her in line.
For the moment though, Alex used Spirit Control to create a clone that he sent to deal with Azula for him, even as their senses were linked so he could see, hear and feel everything his clone could if he wanted.
With all of that done, Alex gave Ty Lee all of his attention.
Planting one last tender kiss upon her lips, Alex then began to trail downwards while planting his kisses on her body.
From her cheeks, to her chin, and down to her collarbone before descending to the valley between her breasts. Alex lingered there momentarily, his face buried between the twin mountains that seemed to defy gravity itself, before he began moving up them to assault their peaks.
"Hahn~!" Ty Lee cried out as Alex took the nipple of her left breast into his mouth, suckling on it gently to stimulate the little nub before moving on to the right breast.
When both nipples were covered in a sheen of saliva, Alex continued his journey downwards as his lips pecked her belly, before he reached her waist.
Before delving further, Alex grabbed both of Ty Lee's legs and forcefully spread them apart with almost no resistance due to her flexibility until they were sticking straight out on either side. And of course, stretching her in such a way had also opened up her delicate petals before his gaze.
"Thank you for the meal~!" Alex said in a teasing tone, before burying his face in the direct center of Ty Lee's legs.
"Ah!" Ty Lee gasped as Alex began to explore her precious petals with his tongue, leaving no fold unexplored as he ravished her with practiced ease.
Ty Lee was no stranger to being eaten out, she was uniquely able to bend in such a way that she could do it to herself as often as she wanted, as well as eating her own ass. But the sensations she felt then were completely different than when she would do it to herself, combined with Alex's own skill to quickly bring her to orgasm once, twice, and even thrice within a matter of minutes.
By the time Alex removed his face from her crotch she was a sopping wet mess that had left a puddle on the floor around them while her skin glistened in the candle light. She hadn't even felt when Alex stuck one of his fingers up her butt, but when he pulled it she wished he would put it back.
Such thoughts soon flew from her mind though when Alex kissed her yet again, except this time tasting like her own juices that coated most of his face. Not that she minded, since she wasn't a stranger to tasting herself after all.
But what she did notice was when something hard and hot prodded her lower lips, making her realize it was time for the real thing.
"Here I go Ty Lee." Alex whispered in her ear, before pressing his cock forwards into her hot sheath.
"Gah!" Ty Lee cried as she was stretched and spread open by the foreign object, gripping the bedroll beneath them with enough force to rip it apart.
Alex went slow for Ty Lee as he entered her, mainly because she kept cumming over and over again with every single inch, making her inner walls clamp down on him so that he could not move until each orgasm had passed. But that was fine, as Alex had already altered the flow of time in the tent so they could take as long as they wanted inside.
And something told Alex that it was going to be a LOOOOOOONG night.
When Alex finally bottomed out in her, he noticed a slight gleam in Ty Lee's eyes that begged for more. So he gave it to her.
For the first round Alex went slow, exploring her insides more than fucking the contortionist beneath him. But when he unloaded the first round into her fertile womb, it was as if the floodgates had opened.
Once he had finished filling her womb with cum, Alex started to move again with more vigor and intensity than before, except this time Ty Lee joined in as she wrapped her legs around his waist and started to buck her hips in time with Alex's thrusts.
It was only when Alex began nearing his second climax that he felt something else inflicting pleasure upon his manhood, and looked over to see Azula on her knees as she readily sucked his clone's cock.
The additional stimulation was all that was needed to send Alex over the edge, as he proceeded to unleash a torrent of semen directly into Ty Lee's baby-maker.
And of course they weren't even close to being done yet.
With Azula and his clone joining the fray, it was time for a position change. Ty Lee agreed apparently as she readily got into the next position, on all fours in front of Alex for doggy style. Except Alex didn't leave it at that, as he then directed her so that she was facing Azula.
The clone moved according to Alex's whims as he positioned Azula the same way, so that she and Ty Lee were face-to-face with only a few inches of space between them. Then, the clone plunged his cock into Azula from behind.
"Ngh..." Azula groaned while trying to keep her voice down as she was impaled, with none of the gentleness Alex had shown Ty Lee earlier.
She didn't need it though, as her pussy gushed around the invading cock, all while Alex similarly suppressed a groan from the sensation of TWO pussies wrapping and squirming around him.
Ty Lee may have been hot inside, but Azula was practically boiling due to her fire bending, which allowed her to increase her own body temperature as she pleased.
With Alex resuming total control over both bodies, he began fucking the two girls with synchronized thrusts so that their faces came dangerous close to each other.
""Real friends would kiss and make up."" Both Alexs said at the same time, surprising the girls before they looked at one another in contemplation.
The next thing they knew, Alex thrust into both of them hard enough that they both lurched forward, and locked lips.
Surprise filled the girls for a moment, even as Alex continued fucking them, before Ty Lee surprised Azula as she began to passionately make out with her.
Ty Lee already knew this was the norm in Alex's harem, so there was nothing special about a kiss between women here and now. Azula on the other hand only knew that this was what her new master was directing her to do, so she readily complied as she reciprocated with one of her oldest friends.
This continued until Alex gave one final thrust, and unloaded into both of their pussies at the same time while simultaneously triggering another orgasm in both of them.
And that was only the start of a LONG and pleasurable night.
The two girls found themselves being put in any and every position as Alex fucked them over, and over, and over again, filling or covering them with seemingly endless streams of cum as he did so.
At one point the two girls would be laying down, Ty Lee on her back with Azula on top of her as Alex fucked them both at once with his dual cock technique. At another, Azula found herself being fucked in both holes from behind with her face buried in Ty Lee's crotch, lapping up the semen that was trickling out of her cunt. And then there was the time when Ty Lee was sitting in Alex's lap with her legs wrapped around his waist, while Azula serviced her asshole this time as she lathered it in her saliva in preparation for Alex to fuck her there as well.
Neither girl knew how long they were fucking for, only that they had taken inhuman amounts of semen in ALL of their holes by the time they had finished, and were well and truly content when they finally finished.
...
When morning came neither of the girls wanted to get up right away, instead wanting only to lay in bed as the day passed them by.
For Ty Lee this was nothing, as her life at the circus was pretty laid back whenever they were traveling or between shows. For Azula on the other hand, the princess could not recall the last time she felt so relaxed and content, if she ever had been to begin with.
And that feeling only increased when they awoke to the smell of breakfast as Alex brought them their plates.
"Morning." He said while conjuring a short table and setting the plates down on it in front of them, before conjuring a couple glasses of juice to go with them. At the same time, Mime Jr. came out of hiding to join them as she sat in Ty Lee's lap.
"I'd hurry and eat up, because I plan to go on the road as soon as possible. I want to head to Kiyoshi island and the South Pole to meet up with Suki and Katara before we head north to Yue."
Ty Lee nodded as she hurriedly ate the food with gusto, now suddenly feeling ravenous despite all of the 'protein' she ingested the night before. Now that Alex was here, she was excited to meet everyone else she had only been able to interact with through the Chatroom, including even the girls from the other nations.
"I shall martial an entire Fire Nation armada to give us a royal escort!" Azula declared on the other hand, her pride and dignity as the Fire Nation princess showing despite her newfound loyalty to Alex.
"That won't be necessary." Alex said, dampening her spirits slightly before explaining, "I can open gates to bring us there right this instant if I wanted to, but for the moment I just want to enjoy the scenery this world has to offer."
Similarly to Remnant, Alex felt no need to rush when dealing with this world since he can go and deal with Ozai whenever he feels like it. He just didn't want to deal with all of the work that'll come afterwards just yet.
And Ozai himself won't actually move until Sozin's comet arrives, which is still several months off. Alex genuinely considered Ozai to be nothing more than a coward, as the only people he actively displayed his power towards were those weaker than him, such as his own wife and children.
Yes, the man was one of, if not THE, strongest fire benders on the planet, which Alex also considered bullshit since Iroh was still alive, but that was only natural considering he was a member of the royal family that had received special training from childhood.
In fact, Alex was pretty sure he could just send Regal or Shuri to go deal with Ozai if he wanted, with them naturally possessing powerful fire and lightning abilities from birth.
So he saw no problem with taking his time as he went from place to place, as it would only take a matter of days at most with Zenith. Plus he could use that time to have Azula help Anne with her fire bending. Azula may not necessarily be a decent teacher, but Anne can still learn from watching and sparring with her.
Speaking of...
"I have something for you Azula." Alex said suddenly, drawing both girls'attention to him as he first sent Azula an invite to the Chatroom, and then summoned a certain item to his hand and placed it on the table.
"What you're looking at is the Chatroom, the very same thing that introduced me to Ty Lee. It has three basic functions, the actual Chatroom that everyone who is a part of it can communicate with each other, the quest page that can give it's users various quests they can complete for points and occasional rewards, and then finally there is the shop that you can spend points you've acquired on various abilities and items."
As Alex explained the three functions of the Chatroom Azula had already accepted his invite and was looking them over to see what they were. But then he pointed out the item he had placed before her, and continued explaining,
"This is something called a Devil Fruit. They can grant anyone who eats one amazing power for the price of them never being able to swim again. There are three that would work for you, but you can only eat one unless you purchase the ability to eat more in the shop. This is one of the three that I mentioned, the only one I have on me at the moment, that I can give to you if you want, the Magu Magu no Mi."
As she was looking through the shop Azula found the section detailing Devil Fruits, how many points they cost, and the specific details of the fruit Alex just offered her. And her mouth split into an evil grin.
Not only did she WANT the fruit Alex was offering her, she WANTED the other two as well when she found them in the shop, as they HAD to be the ones Alex had been referring to. The first was a fruit that would give her complete control over fire, while the other was a fruit that would give her complete control over lightning. Meanwhile the one he was offering her was the one that would give her control over magma, while also turning her body into magma itself, similarly to other two.
Azula didn't know what would happen if she ate all three, after she purchased the ability to eat more than one fruit of course, but she planned to find out.
She also planned to invest in any and all abilities in the Chatroom that involved fire, and its branch abilities, like lightning and magma.
But first was the fruit sitting in front of her.
"I humbly accept this gift, master." Azula said with utmost respect, making Ty Lee's jaw drop since she had NEVER heard Azula speak so respectfully to someone before. Not even her father.
Azula meanwhile bit into the fruit, only for the most vile and disgusting taste she ever experienced to fill her mouth. She didn't show it on her face though, as Azula could NEVER allow herself to show such expressions towards something her master had gifted her.
And so, despite the horrible taste, Azula ate every single bite of the Devil Fruit until nothing was left. And when she had done so she could already feel the difference as the power of magma filled her body.
Now none, not even her father or uncle, could ever hope to stand against her in the Fire Nation!
As Azula was reveling in her powers, Ty Lee looked to Alex with big eyes as she asked him, "do you have a Devil Fruit for me as well?"
Alex adopted a thoughtful look as she considered each of the Devil Fruits he currently had, before shrugging as he answered, "you can look them over if you want, but I don't think I have any you would want. Maybe the fruit that turns you into a string person, but that's all I can think of. I DID however turn you into a fire bender last night. So you can focus on that if you want."
""?!?""
Both Azula and Ty Lee looked at Alex in alarm when he said that, especially with how casually he had said it.
"You turned me into a fire bender!?" Ty Lee demanded, to which Alex nodded in affirmation.
"Yep. You don't have to use it if you don't want to though. But while we were fucking I observed the differences between your and Azula's bodies to see if I can understand what separated benders from non-benders. After that I made the needed adjustments with Spirit magic to give you the power of bending as well. But like I said, you don't have to use it if you don't want to."
As Alex finished speaking Ty Lee adopted a thoughtful look as she considered what he had done to her.
After learning she couldn't bend, along with the rest of her sisters, Ty Lee had given up any hope of bending and focused on martial arts/acrobatics and chi blocking. so she genuinely didn't know how to react to finding out she could now bend.
"I wanna give it a try!" She decided suddenly, figuring she would accept it as being real once she actually used her newly acquired bending.
"Alright. Just try and send a blast of fire in that direction." Alex said while pointing to the open area of the tent behind her.
Ty Lee nodded energetically and took a stance like she had seen Azula do a thousand times before, and closed her eyes to focus on the chi in her body.
Opening them a moment later, Ty Lee took a step forward and thrust her fist out while willing the fire to burst to life. Except, no fire appeared.
*Fwoosh!*
Instead, a wind storm kicked up inside the tent that put out several of the candles that were still lit and caused both her and Azula's hair to whip around wildly until the wind died down, leaving both girls AND Alex stunned.
"..."
"Uh, what just happened...?" Ty Lee asked in disbelief.
"Um.... I guess I turned you into an air bender instead?" Alex said as he too tried to wrap his head around what just happened.
(A.N. just to explain before people try to complain, there are fan theories about Ty Lee being descended from Air Nomads that went into hiding due to her having similar physical traits to Aang, a similar fighting style, and her interest in spiritual energies and such. I just decided to go off of that since it suited her so well.)
