i dont avatar own the plot of this fanfic.
Fire nation fleet in the western earth kingdom
General Kalo saw smoke from the prison barge so he ordered his men to prepare for battle.
When he got there he was greeted by a young officer named Kono who lead him to the warden and explained to him what happened.
After Kalo heard the story said ‘so let me get this straight, you left all those ships here with the engines running, and you didn’t think of the possibility that the prisoners could escape!, now instead of my men getting some R n R we have to hunt down the prisoners, and stop them from retaking their towns, put him in the brig, and when we leave put him in a boat, send it to the fire nation, and have him explain to fire lord Ozai why over two hundred earth benders escaped under his watch’.
After the warden was taken to the brig Kalo turned to Kono and said ‘lieutenant, I want you and your men ready to leave in one hour, you are now under my command’.
Kono nodded in understanding and left to tell his men of their transfer.
As Kalo looked around the ruins of the barge he couldn’t help but be impressed by what the prisoners did using coal as a source of bending remarkable.
Kalo then went to the docks and went up to the warden and personally threw him into the one man boat then he set it alight and smiled as he listened to the warden’s screams as he was burned alive.
Kalo then walked back to his ship and ordered the fleet to head to the town of Yango and burn it to the ground.
That very night in his tent Kalo was having a nightmare of the fire nation burning as well as the earth kingdom and water tribes by dragons in the sky and his sister and another woman‘s screams as they were dishonoured.
After the scenes of horror vanished Kalo found him face to face with avatar Roku
Roku looked at Kalo like he was looking into his soul and said ‘general Kalo you have committed acts of despicable nature, but its not too late you can redeem yourself, in our eyes’.
Kalo still horrified by what he just saw only said ‘its too late for me Roku, I have murdered innocent people, and burned villages to the ground, don’t you understand Roku, I can’t redeem myself!’.
Roku only continued by saying ‘you can redeem yourself Kalo, surely you about the dragon lord Ka Chein don’t you?.
Kalo looked down at the ground and replied ‘only to well Roku’. as he thought back to a night some years ago when he was a young colonel in the Fire nation army
Flashback 2 years ago fire nation royal palace
Colonel Kalo heard the raised voices of prince Ozai and his wife Ursa from the hallway curious the colonel listened in and heard Ursa yell at her husband ‘I saw what you did to Azula’s arm!, how dare you hurt her like that!’.
Her husband then yelled ‘What’s it to you?, You have your own child to take care of’.
‘That’s not how it works’, Ozai, Ursa yelled, ‘They’re both our children. And I don’t want you to hurt them, nor Zuko, nor Azula!’
Kalo was shocked at what he was hearing that prince Ozai was being abusive to both Azula and Zuko how could he “the bastard, makes me sick to my stomach” Kalo thought but still listened in.
Ozai then said ‘listen woman!, I’m not interfering with the way you raise your failure of a son. I think the least I could ask form you is to mind your own business when it comes to the upbringing of my prodigy’.
Kalo then heard Ursa yell ‘upbringing!?, you’re turning her into a monster, Ozai, alien to any kind of emotion’.
Ozai now having lost him temper said ‘And what it takes to rule a country, emotions are for the weak. Our country deserves better then a weak ruler’.
Kalo then heard a loud slap and then decided enough was enough and burst into the room and saw Ursa on the ground with blood on her face with Ozai actually smiling at what he had just done to his wife.
Ozai then looked up and said ‘what you doing here colonel?, are you here to hit my wife as well?’.
Kalo then said ‘no, I heard everything, what kind of father abuses his children!, you want to know who?, a little man, who does it to make himself feel a little bit big’.
Ozai then said ‘I did it to teach them respect, its none of your business what I do with my children Colonel, now leave and forget you saw anything, or your little sister might not wake up in the morning’.
Kalo then stood in front of Ursa and said ‘if you want to hit her again Ozai, you have to get through me first, come on then, what are you waiting for?’.
Ozai didn’t make a single move towards Kalo and said ‘get out of my sight, both of you now’.
Kalo then led Ursa out of the room and she then told the colonel what the argument was about and about what her husband planned to do to her young son and Kalo agreed to help stop it from happening by killing fire lord Azulon.
Kalo then helped Ursa brew a poisonous tea for the fire lord to drink and then Ursa would forge a fake will by Azulon declaring Ozai the new fire lord.
But after Azulon was poisoned Kalo saw someone enter Azulon’s bedroom and said quietly ‘you arent worthy of your title Azulon, and I as the dragon lord Ka Chein, declare you an ex fire lord, and an ex son of fire, see you in hell’.
The man then cut Azulon’s head off killing him more quickly then the poison would have.
Kalo then got Ursa out of the fire nation before anyone found out what happened the princess made Kalo promise to look after her children and he assured her that he would look after Zuko and Azula.
Kalo then went to Ozai and said he killed Ursa and had disposed of her body and because of that grand heroic act of killing a traitor to the fire nation he was promoted to general by Ozai as his first official act as fire lord.
End of flashback
Kalo looked at Roku and said ‘how can I help do anything about Ka Chein?, he is a spirit therefore I cant kill him’.
Roku then replied ‘Ka Chein can be killed as he is trapped in human form, but you will need help to do it’.
Roku then handed Kalo a scroll and after Kalo finished reading it Roku continued by saying ‘you are destined to defeat the dragon lord, but you will need the help of your sister, and the other three’
Kalo’s face then took a look of confusion and he said ‘I know two of these three are Azula and Zuko, but who is number three?’.
Before Kalo could get an answer Roku was gone and the general woke up with a start in a cold sweat.
Unable to get back to sleep Kalo went for walk in the nearby forest but after a few minutes a creature emerged from the bush and bit into Kalo’s neck drinking his blood Kalo withdrew his knife and stabbed it into the creatures stomach causing it to let go of Kalo’s neck.
Kalo now turned to look the creature in the eyes and saw it was a human who was now a vampire.
Kalo then launched a barrage of fire balls at the vampire burning him alive in a matter of seconds.
Kalo took a deep breath as he brought his hand to his neck and felt blood starting to come out of the wound, it was in that second that Kalo knew he was no longer a full blood human, he was now a half vampire.
Kalo then walked back to the camp when he saw a animal go by Kalo then went after it with the intention of drinking his blood to survive Kalo was now cursed and he knew he had to run and keep on running as he was now a vampire he was an enemy of his nation.
But for the first time in years Kalo was happy he was finally free.
So what do you think good or bad let me know?.
