Avatar: Curse of the Metal Legion

Prologue

Water. Earth. Fire. Air.

Long ago, the four nations lived in peace. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of the four elements, could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished.

A hundred years past, and two water tribe children, Katara and Sokka, discovered the New Avatar, an airbender named Aang. Although his airbending skills were great, he had a lot to learn before he could save the world. Together, the three children traveled to the Northern Water Tribe, trailed by the disgraced fire nation prince Zuko and his Uncle Iroh. They made many friends and allies oon their incredible adventure. There the Avatar mastered water and saved the Spirit of the Moon. The teens traveled to the Earth Kingdom, where they were hounded by Azula, the cruel Fire Nation Princess. Aang, Sokka, and Katara met up with the Blind Bandit, a young Earthbender named Toph. Toph taught Aang the art of moving the Earth, and Aang happily made the blind girl part of the group. However, after that , their journey took a turn for the worse. Azula infiltrated and captured Ba Sing Se, the Earth Kingdom capital. Aang was mortally wounded, and Zuko turned back to his dark past, even after a chance at redemption.

Aang survived his wound, however, and he and his companions infiltrated the Fire Nation. Zuko became a prince again, but soon released this was not his destiny. On the Day of a Solar Eclipse, The Avatar and his allies attacked in an attempt to capture the fire lord. Zuko confronted his father, saying he would stop him and train the avatar in firebending. The invasion failed and Aang and his young companions fled to the Western Air Temple. There, Zuko proved his integrity and joined their group. The prince and the avatar learned the true art of firebending, and soon all was forgiven.

Fire Lord Ozai was waiting for the arrival of Sozin's comet, which would give the firebenders the strength to level the Earth Kingdom. Before the final chance to defeat Ozai, Aang dissappeared to a mysterious island. Ozai declared himself the Phoenix King and set out with his airship fleet to destroy the Earth Kingdom. He appointed Azula Fire Lord, but she soon descended into madness. Zuko and the others founded all of their mentors together and planning to retake Ba Sing Se. Iroh forgave Zuko, and gave the group their missions. zuko and Katara would defeat Azula, while Sokka, Toph, and their warrior friend Suki would destroy the airships. Meanwhile Aang was struggling over the thought of killing Ozai, when a lion turtle (who was the island) gave him a tremendous gift. Aang went to confront his destiny.

Zuko was easily overpowering his deranged sister when Azula made a cheap move: shoot at Katara with lightning. Zuko took the blast, and Katara was left to fight Azula. The waterbender outsmarted the psycotic princess, chaining her with her waterbending prowess. Sokka, Suki, and Toph desperately tried to destroy the airships, and destroyed all but one. Aang went into battle with Ozai, and was losing due to his unwilingness to kill. In a last ditch effort, Aang entered the avatar state and defeated the fire lord. The Avatar used the lion turtle's gift, the ancient art of energybending to take away Ozai's bending, ending the war.

With peace restored, the nations flourished. The Water Tribes rebuilt, creating massive cities and villages. They soon became the port capitals of the world. The Fire Nation eagerly rebuilt the other nations, causing the bonds that were lost to be reforged. The Earth Kingdom rebuilt their cities and spread around the world.

The greatest suprise, however, was the reappear of the Airbenders. Long ago, they hid away in mountain sactuaries, waiting out the war. The new order of monks had quickly flourished, and soon all nations were back to their former prosperity. It seemed that it would be a time of peace.

However, it was not to be.

The Spirit world was in an uproar. the demons of that world had found an entrance to the physical world. There, they merged with humans, upsetting the balance. The demons created technology vastly ahead of their time and laid seige to the planet. The Avatar went into battle with the forces of the Metal legion, trying to save the hard fought for peace. The demons defeated the Avatar, who once again disappeared.

With the Avatar out of the way, the Legion destroyed everything in their path. Within months, the Earth Kingdom was gone, it's benders retreating into the earth. The Fire Nation capital was taken, with the people retreating to the islands around the nation. The Water Tribe's land was surronded, with only the capital's remaining free. The Air Benders suffered a similar fate, with the monks locked into the temples.

The legion turned the world into urban wasteland, with those in it's grasp slaving nonstop under it's fist. The people were slaves, stuck in the cities and laboring to pay the steep taxes. the technology was impressive, but the ancient arts were fading. The Spirits of the planet were retreating to the spirit world, throwing the world into disarray. The Earth rotted, the sea's became unnavigatble, the world was in a drought, and fire burned freely.

200 years after the battle of the comet, the world is dying and without hope. Our heroes and legends are fading, our ancient powers forgotten. This technology has brought a terrible curse to the planet. There is no hope left.
