(laughs maniacally) I'd really rather have our family physician look after little Zuzu if you don't mind.
Chapters 18, 19, 20 & 21: Sozin's Comet
(After Katara heals him, whispering) Thank you, Katara.
(Tears running down her face) I think I'm the one who should be thanking you.
[Azula has been watching in fury; she exhales uncontrollably, breathing fire out of her mouth, screaming and rolling around and falling on her back; Zuko and Katara watch, stunned, as she sobs hysterically]
[in the Avatar State, with the voice of the previous Avatars] Fire Lord Ozai, you and your forefathers have devastated the balance of this world. And now, you shall pay the ultimate price!
Aang [refusing to kill Ozai, looking away]: No, I'm not going to end it like this.
Even with all the power in the world, you are still weak.
LTLion Turtle
In the era before the Avatar, we bent not the elements, but the energy within ourselves. To bend another's energy, your own spirit must be unbendable or you will be corrupted and destroyed.
What...what did you do to me?
I took away your firebending. You can't use it to hurt or threaten anyone else ever again.
(Examining a motionless Ozai) So, did you...you know...finish the job?
(Menacing) I'm still alive. (Suki flinches back)
I learned there was another way to defeat him and restore balance. I took his bending away.
TToph
Wow, who taught you that?
[in a matter-of-fact tone] A giant Lion Turtle.
TToph
(shakes her head and smiles) You have the craziest adventures when you disappear.
Well, look at you, buster. Now that your firebending is gone, I guess we should call you the Loser Lord.
I am the Phoenix King. (with a groan he falls facedown)
TToph
Oh sorry, didn't mean to offend you, Phoenix King of getting his butt whooped.
Yeah, or how about King of the... guys who... don't win?
TToph
Leave the nicknames to us, honey.
Mai, you're okay. They let you out of prison?
My uncle pulled some strings. And it doesn't hurt when the new Fire Lord is your boyfriend.
So...Does it mean you don't hate me anymore?
I think it means, I actually kind of like you.
[They kiss]
(taps his shoulder with her finger twice) But don't ever break up with me again. (Zuko smiles looking scared)
There's my favorite warriors. I gotta say, I kinda missed the face paint. So, how's it feel to be back in uniform?
[coming out from behind the other Kyoshi Warriors] It feels great. [Sokka jumps between Suki and Ty Lee]
Careful, Suki. Ty Lee's pretending to be a Kyoshi Warrior again.
It's okay. She's one of us now. [Sokka stammers and looks at Suki and Ty Lee in shock]
Yeah. The girls and I really bonded in prison. And after a few chi blocking lessons, they said I could join their group. (she puts her arms around two of the warriors) We're gonna be best friends forever. (they all smile, the two warriors looking a bit awkward)
I can't believe a year ago my purpose in life was hunting you down. And now...
And now we're friends.
(he looks away a little, touched) Yeah, we are friends.
I can't believe a year ago I was still frozen in a block of ice. The world's so different now. (Zuko walks up to him)
And it's gonna be even more different. We'll rebuild it together. (they hug)
Please, the real hero is the Avatar. Today this war is finally over. I promised my uncle that I would restore the honor of the Fire Nation and I will. The road ahead of us is challenging. A hundred years of fighting has left the world scarred and divided. But with the Avatar's help we can get it back on the right path, and begin a new era of love and peace.
[Zuko is crowned Fire Lord]
GFGreat Fire Sage
All hail Fire Lord Zuko.
(dryly) I should count myself lucky that the new Fire Lord has graced me with his presence in my lowly prison cell.
You should count yourself lucky that the Avatar spared your life. Banishing me was they best thing you did for my life. It put me on the right path. Perhaps your time in here could do the same for you.
(eyes narrow) Why are you really here?
Because you're going to tell me something. (kneels down to look his father into the eye) Where... is... my mother?
Zuko, stop moving. I'm trying to capture the moment. I wanted to do a painting so we always remember the good times together.
That's very thoughtful of you, Sokka. (sees the painting, her eyes narrow) Wait. Why did you give me Momo's ears?
[offended] Those are your hair loops!
(comes over, eyes narrowed also.) At least you don't look like boar-cupine. My hair is not that spiky!
I look like a man.
And why did you paint me firebending?
I thought it would look more exciting that way
[Momo makes a sound]
Oh, you think you can do a better job, Momo?
Hey, my belly is not that big anymore. I really trimmed down.
TToph
Well, I think you all look perfect.
(They all laugh because Toph is blind so she can't see Sokka's painting)
