abuseIn the beginning of this chappie I could see Azula teasing and proding like a little child just to know about the 'Young Lord's' past. They were really comfortable with each other like friends.

And then Azuzu and zuko making up that was nice touch as well. And I believe if I haven't already told you the young lord may be my favorite char.

but I times I really wanted to hit him.. example:

' The Cloaked Lord, then cracked half a said quickly, but calmly “Ok.”

“Huh,” Azula replied her stern face dropping to one of confusion.

“What…” everyone else, but Sun Su said.

“Th…that’s it?” Azula said confusingly. “You’re not going to argue why I shouldn’t go?”

“Not at all,” the Lord answered. “I never had any intention of not letting you come.” '

I just wanted to bash his skull in - out of love of course - but in re of his sly techniques. He went up in my book.

This seems like such a immature review but I must say.. this chapter really got me going.

abuseI believe I like this, Ji Shu, she seems to have a good effect on Sokka. But is she really affecting Sokka, or the Mercenary behind the mask? When I read this chapter I kept thinking about both of them, in shadow, sitting under the moon - it was quite beautiful actually.

And the old man! Yees! You go! Tie up those guards! XD But on your villan - Fu Yi.. I can't remember him. Did he make an appearance in your earlier chapters?

I also noticed that Sokka keeps talking about Sing a-lot. Sing gave me this.. I got the idea from Sing.. Any specific reason why?

** I enjoyed the torch/flashlight/lamp that Sokka made with the fireflys. Very creative indeed.

abuseA full scale rumble in three different locations, not to mention two different planes of existence? I will only say this once; booya.

There was some really good action in this. And yet again there was good variety in the villains being fought. What you also did well was alternate between the three battle scenes. Section breaks might have made the shift easier but that may just be my personal preference.

Finally Aang and Kai-lin are joining forces. Glad its finally happened but of course the question has to be asked what is going to happen once this is over. Aang is probably going be stuck having to decide what to do, whether to stay and support the resistance. Really Aang has lost a lot to the fire nation but unlike everyone else he wasn’t there to loss it. He also grew up in a time where he had fire nation friends so he knows that it.

Along the same line, it is great to see Ji Shu again however the question is which woman will Sokka end up with. Yes Sokka is with Suki right now but that was built on the ‘old’ Sokka which he nolonger is. I realise that Suki isn’t quite that the same Suki either but is she ready for the new Sokka. That said, Ji Shu is from the world in which Sokka is the black fox. She is far more than just an assassin and there is a connection between them but it may come down to Sokka deciding who he wants to be; black fox or boomerang guy.

There was some great action in this chapter, wonderful combination of bending and non-bending and two team ups that I really look forward to seeing more. In other words, excellent work, I look forward to your next update.

abuse“Well...as creepy as it is, I’ve seen worse in my life. Heck, I’ve been worse in my life,”

Lol that line was pure win. I've got to remember it. Big creepy castle with a legion of purple clad psycho benders, sure why not head that direction because heading the other way would just be *far* too easy.

I will say that it made for some great action. Azula was on fire (bad pun I know but it had to be said). Nice variation on the bad guys she faced, I’m just glad the earthbenders weren’t real because other wise she would have murder on her new found conscious. The catapult was convenient but still awesome.

I loved your description of the scenery, it was very lush not to mention loaded with symbolism. I also really liked the interactions between the two Azula’s (I know on of them wasn’t actually Azula, s/he was manipulating and evil enough that she played the part perfectly). Now the conversation between them could have gone two ways, either Azula believe the doppelganger and ends up in deep trouble because of it or sees through the deceit. I am so glad you did take the cliché route.

Now Kai-lin has come down to join the party, Something tells me we’re going to see a whole lot more butt whip in the next chapter and I’m looking forward to it.

abuse"A Battle Filled Night".

Wow Strategist, that is a VERY appropriate title for this chapter. In the temple, at the shrine, inside Azula's head, there's fighting everywhere. This is one of, if not, the most action-packed chapter yet!

Kinda hard to keep track. Roku's sending Aang to back-up Kai-lin, against the Evil spirit's armies, Zuko and friend are protect Kai-lin and Azula's bodies, while Sokka and lucky Ji Shu do the same for Aang against the Red Serpent Soildiers.

And all this excitement brought as a distraction in order to help Azula regain control of her own mind and body.

All of it bringing us closer to explainations and confessions. Will they succeed in saving Azula?
Will Kai-lin explain to Azula the terrible secret that she lies in the heart of?
Will Kai-lin confess to Aang that he, the Crimson Dragon, is also the Grand General of the Fire Nation working to end the war from within?
Will Sokka confess that he's known about the Crimson Dragon all along?

Man so many question! And so close the answers. I can hardly wait for the next chapter so see if the rescue suceeds and how the night resolves.

Great work Strat. Keep it up. :D

abuseMan I knew the anti was going to be uped but this was incredible. Finally the evil spirit has gotten the hold he was aiming for, something tells me this won’t end well. Not that Kai-lin is going to give his women up with out a fight.

The re-introduction was an interesting touch. I say interesting simply because I feel sorry for what must have happened to her yet at the same time it is nice to see some of the once off characters being seen again. Song didn’t get a lot of screen time but still enough to show a character that has so much goodness despite the harsh world she has had to live in.

Jin and Jet was kind of sweet but still funny. Sorry Jet, no-one likes a player.

Ty lee’s performance was very well described. I liked the moments of her talking to her self but there, just like in the last chapter, it is what is not said that is most touching. It is a shame that it got cut short.

All in all this, this was good chapter in the way of it’s mellowness. By having a more toned down chapter, it allows for a greater build up for what I can tell is going to be a fairly intense few chapters coming up. Nothing felt forced, the interactions flowed beautifully and all the important parts and characters were included. Great job.

I’ll just end it now with saying great chapter.

abuseOMG! I am so sorry! Life has tied me up and locked me in the closet for so long... and I just plain forgot about this... I'm so lame. T.T Bad baka, bad. (Slaps self) Ow. Anyways, this has been so amazing. Is the 'twin' the Fire Spirit? I have re-read the entire story, while listining to Three Days Grace songs, they make the battle scenes better. Dunno why but, they do. Keep up the AWESOME work. Until next time... FARE THEE WELL FOOLISH HUMAN!
