Summary: Ty Lee didn't know what she expected to find in the supposed 'haunted shrine' on Ember Island. Some told her to expect a vicious monster that would kill her without a second glance or some killer spirit. Only instead she found a boy her age chained in it.

Monster of Ember Island

Chapter 1

A frown formed on the face of a girl as she walked through the moderately familiar island that she had spent a vacation or two relaxing on growing up. She had her light brown hair in a French braid, her outfit consisting of a slightly baggy pink top and pants that showed off her full stomach and slightly hid her chest, as ever since they became an E cup she had started feeling a bit more self-conscious about them and the stares they garnered.

Her name was Ty Lee, daughter of a Fire Nation noble, who had thought that when one of her best friends Azula had shown up at her circus things would start getting exciting. Only now she and Mai were off alone while Azula took care of something more military related.

"Come on Mai, stop being so gloomy and help me find something to do while Azula is off being busy" she whined as she flipped over to her hands to walk on, as being a circus performer had allowed her to gain immense balance and flexibility.

"I don't care Ty Lee I just want to get back to the inn" her gloomy black haired friend said before she sent a glare towards her with a slight sigh after seeing the pout on her friend's face.

"If you want something to do how about I show you pretty girls to the haunted cave of Ember Island?" a boy they figured to be a local said as he leaned against a nearby house.

"Ooo haunted cave!? That sounds so cool!" Ty Lee said excitedly while Mai rolled her eyes.

"We're fine" Mai quickly replied with a glare before Ty Lee whined.

"But Mai~! It could be something cool! You are all about spooky and gloomy stuff and a haunted cave is totally your thing!" she said as Mai held in a groan as she couldn't resist the intrigue of a haunted area since, with the existence of spirits, it was a possibility that they could be legitimately haunted.

"Whatever…but," Mai said, turning towards the boy, grabbing him by the collar as she pulled out one of her daggers and held it to his neck "if you try anything fresh I won't hesitate. Got it?" she asked before the boy grew as pale as snow and quickly nodded in fear.

"So what is this haunted cave about? Is the spirit dangerous?" Ty Lee asked while they followed the boy out of the town and into the small forest outside of it.

"Well apparently deep inside the cave is some temple that holds this boy" the boy said as Mai raised an eyebrow with a frown.

"Apparently? Are you not sure or something?" Mai asked while the boy rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

"Well the cave has been caved in for a long time, we hear a voice occasionally speak inside and it does yell at us whenever we shoot our firebending through the bits of rock we can see through" he said as Mai groaned and Ty Lee gasped.

"You firebend at this poor boy who is trapped in the cave?! Why haven't you tried helping him?" Ty Lee asked in shock as the thought of basically prodding someone trapped in a cage with a hot stick, human or spirit, was just plain cruel.

"I-It's not our fault, the guy has to be some kind of monster if he's trapped in there or something" he said, cowering a bit under Mai's cold glare.

"Just show us where the cave is and I might not have Ty Lee leave you paralyzed on the ground" Mai said before the boy quickly nodded and continued to guide them, cursing in his mind how tourists were always trouble.

"H-Here, the temple is in there but you can't get too far in, the rocks make it so you'd have to be made of rubber or something to actually get through" he said while Mai just jerked her thumb behind her, telling him to leave, which he quickly did without a second's hesitation.

"Hello? Is someone in there?" Ty Lee called out into the hole in the rubble as she could barely see what she figured to be the front steps of the temple through it.

"Just leave me alone! How many times do I have to tell you all! And I swear if you launch fire at me again I will launch it back!" a boy's voice yelled, echoing through the cave before Ty Lee frowned.

"I'm not here to hurt you. Are you okay? How long have you been trapped?" Ty Lee asked while Mai frowned and rose an eyebrow.

"I'm fine! Just leave me alone! Why does no one get that concept!" the boy yelled annoyed before Mai pulled Ty Lee away from the opening.

"Ty Lee this doesn't concern us. If you want to help him just tell the authorities and they'll handle getting him out of there" Mai said as she wasn't sure why her friend was worrying about some random boy in a cave.

"No! I can't just leave knowing he's in there. Plus I doubt only some kids our age know about it which means others know but no one does anything" Ty Lee said with a frown before she moved back towards the opening and, much to Mai's shock, started to crawl through it.

"Ty Lee! What are you doing!?" Mai asked as she grabbed her friend's ankle before she entirely made her way through the opening.

"Let go Mai! I'm going to try and help him! Can you honestly just stand there knowing some kid has been trapped in a cave for who knows how long and not help him?" she asked before Mai frowned and let out a long groan.

"Fine! But I am going to get Azula as maybe she can help or something" Mai said before letting go of Ty Lee's ankle. "Though be careful! I don't want you getting crushed in a cave in" she added before Ty Lee continued crawling through.

"Got it! I'll be careful" Ty Lee said as she was glad she was just the right size to squeeze through the opening, despite it being a bit of a tight squeeze with her chest. She smiled as she reached the end of it, using her flexibility to pull herself out of the opening and hand-standing and flipping slowly to return to her feet.

"See Mai! I'm all good!" she yelled through before immediately wishing she hadn't.

It seemed the vibration from yelling caused the rock wall to shift ever so slightly. The vibrations seemed just enough for some rocks to come loose and completely close off the opening.

"Mai! Can you still hear me!?" she yelled through the door, hoping either her friend could hear her as that meant there could possibly be airflow. If not then she hoped her friend had went to go get Azula.

"No but I can. Did you seriously get in here and then immediately get trapped?" the boy said as she turned around and started to walk towards the temple.

The temple itself was run down with various holes in the roof, which was expected with it being trapped in a cave in. It didn't look like anything like the Capital Temple she had seen a few times as it was much, much smaller and had an odd red archway in front of it.

(AN: Imagine a Shinto temple basically)

"M-Maybe. Please tell me you know of some like back way out or hidden tunnels or something" she said as she carefully made her way through the front door. She frowned as she heard the sound a chain jangling before a figure walked into the front room and was rendered speechless.

The boy looked easily her age with natural tan skin and blonde hair that spiked out in every direction with two bangs framing his face as she swore was the color of gold and even brightened up the dark room. As he stared at her his dazzling blue eyes looked at her in curiosity before she noticed the three strange whisker marks on each cheek.

She continued to look him over, noticing he only a pair of ragged, but clean, red pants and a pair of wooden sandals. That and his figure was amazing, his abs were a nice six pack and he had the muscles and physic of a swimmer or runner.

It took her a while, his abs being a large distraction, to notice the odd tattoo over his stomach. The tattoo was an odd spiral with four scribbly looking spikes above it pointing up and four below pointing down.

(AN: Eight Trigram Seal)

His aura was beautiful as well, a stunning orange-ish gold that blazed around him. The only odd thing about it was the ball of dark red on his stomach where his tattoo was located.

She was snapped out of her daze from staring at his muscles, while looking at his aura, before he snapped his fingers at her to get her attention. As she broke her eyes away from his muscles she noticed the iron manacle around his wrist that had a chain attached to it which led back towards the room he came from.

"Are you done staring cause I said I'm not sure about an exit sine I'm chained up I can't really explore" he said as he pointed to the manacle, jingling it with a groan before he tried to walk closer only for the chain to reach its length and him almost fall backwards.

"Oh my goodness! Why are you chained here! Are you okay?" she asked as she noticed the manacle was tight on him, showing he had possibly been wearing it for a while and he grew too big for it.

"I'm fine but you really shouldn't have come in here especially since you are trapped here as well and I can't really help you since I'm stuck" he said as he started to walk back into the other room while she followed.

"But you're chained up in here. Why didn't you call for help or, uh, firebend! You said something about launching fire back if that kid shot it at you so why haven't you melted the chain or something?" she asked as they entered what looked like to be the room he spent most time it.

She quickly noticed the makeshift table make out of a hunk of rock, a set of cups, a tea set, some bedding and what looked like to be a bucket that collected water that dripped from the exposed cave ceiling above them. It was also in this room that she could see the end of the chain, it being embedded in the middle of some mini shrine in the very back of the room.

"I can't melt the chain. The damn monks, however they did it, made it so it can't be melted. Not even the shrine or the rock the chain is connected to can be melted" he said as he pointed his palm towards the chain before a torrent of white flames shot out of it and onto the chain.

She, even though she was on the opposite side of the room, could feel the heat from the white flames and she also noticed how he didn't do any stances like Azula had to do.

As the flames died down she frowned at the sight of the still intact and not even reddened chains. "See? Don't you think I tried it the first time I was chained up as a kid?" he asked before he flinched at the slip of the tongue.

"Since a kid! I'm so sorry for you!" Ty Lee yelled as she tried to leap forward to hug him, tears in her eyes from hearing he's been here for so long only for him to hold her at arm's length with his hand on her forehead.

"Don't be sorry for me I'm fine here. I get by eating the lizards that scurry in here and drinking the water I purify by boiling. The only thing I want is for people to leave me alone and stop shooting fire at my home as putting it out when I can only barely reach the front door is really difficult. If I can't leave I at least don't want my home being burnt" he said with a sigh before she moved back from his hand.

"Then please tell me what I can do to help you at least. Maybe I can help find a way to get it off of you" she said as he groaned and sat down at his makeshift table.

"If you really want to help or something how about you try and find a way out of here for yourself or something. Also check out the other rooms as maybe there is some stuff that can be useful" he said as she nodded and gave a little salute before she was about to run off only to stop and turn around with a smile.

"My name's Ty Lee by the way, it's nice to meet you" she said as the man smiled slightly nervously and nodded

"Naruto, nice to meet you" he said as she smiled softly and nodded before she walked off to explore the temple more than he could.

The other rooms of the temple were just as worn down as Naruto's living quarters if not worse. Her flexibility and acrobatics came in handle with entering parts of rooms as parts of hallways and halves of some rooms were moderately blocked by rocks.

She couldn't find anything of use as mostly everything was either destroyed or ruined by water. She couldn't even find another way out as rocks blocked everything outside the temple.

It wasn't until she entered the last room in the very back of the temple did she see something possibly interesting. The item was a white fire in the middle of an empty room and the closer she got she could see what looked like a book, still intact inside the flames which thoroughly confused her.

She knew she had to be careful, as the flames felt nearly as hot as Naruto's, before she used some fire tongs she had seen in the main room to pick the book out of the fire. She had to be fast as the second she got the book out of the flames and onto the ground the tongs started to melt from the heat of the flames.

The book was still steaming with heat as it sat on the ground, causing her to take another trip back to the main room to grab two fire pokers to use almost like chopsticks to carry it back to Naruto. It was a bit difficult with the closed hallways but she figured that throwing it wouldn't hurt the book if it was able to survive flames.

"Back already and you found a book? Why are you carrying it like that?" Naruto asked as she set the steaming hot book on the rock table.

"Because it was in this bowl of white flames like the ones you shot out and I thought it might be interesting for you but be careful its hot?" she said, ending with confusion as Naruto opened the book like it was nothing despite it still being steaming hot.

"It's fine since fire can't really hurt me. Don't ask me why as I don't have time nor the want to explain" he said waving off the question on her mind while he flipped through the pages until a slip of paper drifted out from between some pages.

Naruto didn't even let it touch the ground before he read it over, a smile growing bigger on his face before he tossed down the book on the table and rushed towards the shrine.

"Why so happy? What was that paper?" she asked as he turned back at her, waving the odd slip in the air, with a large smile.

"This, Ty Lee, is my chain's key. The monk must have hid it in the book back there before they left and caused the cave in. I think they thought I would never be able to find it and no one would enter given the stigma the shrine has had on this island" he said as she watched him stick the paper on the front of the shrine.

She watched as the chain connected to the shrine started to break apart link by link, crumbling into pieces. They continued to break apart before the manacle on his wrist opened up and fell to the ground revealing a slightly less tan colored wrist compared to the rest of his skin. His wrist even had some cuts on it from being stuck in a small manacle.

"Finally! I got that freaking thing off me! Finally I can leave this crappy place after all these years!" he said excitedly before Ty Lee hugged him, and in the heat of the moment, he hugged her back before frowning and moving her away.

"Did you find a way out for you, or well, us now?" he asked as he started walking out of the room with her following behind him with a slight pout before she shook her head.

"No since everything is blocked. I think the only way out is if I wait for my friends to get me out or you help me get out the way I came in" she said as he sighed and ran his hand through his hair.

"I should be able to find or at least make a way out" he said while turning towards the entrance as she squealed and bounced alongside him with a happy smile.

"I'm so happy I was able to help you! Did that manacle hurt to have on for so long?" she asked as he shrugged his shoulders.

"I learned to ignore it after a while" he said before he rubbed his chin in thought while looking over the caved in entrance.

"Do you think you'll be able to get us out?" Ty Lee asked as he nodded with slight frown.

"Yeah but stand back a good bit because I think I'm going to melt the rocks in front of me" he said before white flames flickered on his upper arms.

-Other side of the wall-

"So Ty Lee honestly crawled in there, trying to save some trapped guy only to trap herself inside once on the other side?" Azula asked as she crossed her arms, watching her soldiers try and take apart the caved in wall while Mai stood by her side with a bored look.

"Yeah I tried to stop her but you know how she is with stuff like that" Mai said before the troops started to move back, both her and Azula widening their eyes as the rocks in front of heated up to the point they turned to lava. This continued until set of arms burst through and a man walked through, uncaring for the lava that rolled off him like beads of water.

"Now hand me my bucket and I'll douse the lava so you can walk through Ty Lee" a man said before stopping, once noticing them, and merely waved. "Ty Lee I think your friends are here. You know what I'll just carry you out, the lava is off me and I should have cooled off" he said before walking back through the cooled down 'tunnel' he left behind.

"D-Did you see what I just saw?" Mai asked, a bit surprised by not only someone melting rock but also being unaffected by lava dripping on them.

"I did, how about we go and meet this interesting man" Azula said as her tone paired with the way she licked her lips made Mai shiver.

As the man walked back through the tunnel Ty Lee smiled and waved at them as she was carried through in the arms of the mystery man. "Hi Mai! Hi Azula! Sorry if I made you worry but Naruto here helped me out!" she said before the man, now identified as Naruto set her down.

"Well there, reunited with your friends all. It's nice meeting you all" he said with a slight unsure frown as Ty Lee hugged him again before Azula cleared her throat.

"Well, thank you for saving our friend. Whatever can we do to repay you?" Azula asked with a smirk as Naruto turned to her with a raised brow.

"I really don't need any thanks for it. I guess since I'm free I could go and maybe find those who left me in there or just travel around since " he said before Azula took a step forward and placed her hand on her chest in what Ty Lee could tell was mock hurt.

"Are you saying you don't want the thanks of the princess of the Fire Nation? I could take that as an insult if I wanted to" she said as Naruto frowned and rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

"Look it's not like that, dang I never thought talking with people again would be so difficult. Honestly I don't need anything as I just want to be free and maybe visit around the world as being trapped in their since being a kid things have bound to have changed" he said as Azula nodded and waved it off.

"I suppose I could let this slide if you were to tell me how you melted through all those rocks and seemed to be immune from the lava you created" she said while he frowned and shook his head.

"Sorry but I really don't want to talk about it. Honestly I just want to forget about firebending for a while" he said before a torrent of blue flames collided with him, making Ty Lee gasp in shock and worry until an unscathed Naruto emerged from the flames.

"Was that really necessary?" he asked as Azula's smile grew and she chuckled softly.

"You are immune to fire! I knew I remembered correctly about this temple the second Mai told me about it. You see I heard rumors around the capital temple, back when I was forced to waste time there, that the monks of this temple had experimented on orphans to try and create a soldier on par with the Avatar" Azula said as Naruto narrowed his eyes.

"Is that why I was made like this? To help fight some ridiculous war?" Naruto asked in a steeled tone, clenching his fists as white flames flickered on them.

"Of course. The monks said that they had summoned spirits from the spirit realm and done something no one else has been able to do, seal it inside a living host! You are the host of an utterly destructive spirit but were left behind because the stupid monks valued their life before yours. My father will be pleased when I bring you back to him!" Azula said as Naruto glared furiously at her while Ty Lee widened her eyes as it all made sense to her.

The whiskers, the stomach tattoo, and the immunity to fire as well as the incredible firebending that didn't require poses. That and the red orb in his stomach all made sense now.

"I'm sorry you found out about me Ty Lee, I bet now you wish you hadn't freed me" he said as Ty Lee adamantly shook her head making him chuckle before turning towards Azula. "At least one person doesn't see me as a monster or some tool in a war. Now I figure you won't let me go free right?" he asked while Azula shook her head with a laugh.

"I'd be a fool to let something as powerful as you go free. We can do this peacefully or with force" she said as he narrowed his eyes.

"I'd like to see you try. I've been trapped long enough I'm not leaving one set of chains to go into another" he said as he held his hands back, pointing the palms behind him and away from Azula.

Azula rose her brow in confusion, wondering what he was planning with his hands pointed away from her before her eyes widened once he almost disappeared and a burst of flames hit the wall he stood in front of seconds ago.

The princess had no time to react as a powerful kick struck her in the stomach before sending her skidding back across the clearing. It took her a minute to regain her breath from the force of the kick but once she looked up she felt something amazing. The utterly fearsome sight of Naruto walking towards her made her want the man even more as his arms and torso were lit up in white flames that she could feel their heat from there.

"Amazing…those flames are hotter than mine and you have no stance to conjure your flames" Azula said as she shot a wall of flames across the width of the opening in front of the cave entrance for a diversion only for him to burst through it and launch his own flames at her.

Even as she rolled to the left to dodge the flames she could feel the heat and flames flickering at her skin and clothes. "I don't want to hurt you Azula, honestly. I just want to be free to do with my life as I want" he said as he didn't want to hurt the friend of the girl that had actually found a way to save him.

"Your flames are amazing. You are amazing! Forget my father! Join me and I will ensure you are treated like royalty! You can have anything you want!" she said as she smiled up at him. She was willing to do whatever was needed to ensure this man didn't escape her even if it meant minor treason.

"Please Naruto accept Azula's offer!" Ty Lee yelled as he turned to see her and Mai standing by the side, Ty Lee looking worried as Mai looked indifferent. "You can travel with us around the world. I can show you the circus! Just please stop fighting" Ty Lee begged with tears in her eyes as she hated to see her best friend fight against her new friend she had just saved.

Naruto frowned as a part of him didn't trust Azula, something in her eyes just screamed dangerous, but another part didn't want to hurt Ty Lee by saying no. "Will you really take me around the world?" he asked as he looked to both Ty Lee and Azula.

"Yes, I'll give you the world if that's what it takes to have you by my side" Azula said while Ty Lee nodded along.

"We are going on some trip soon! Please just come with us and stop fighting. You won't be chained up or imprisoned. I promise" Ty Lee said before Naruto sighed and extinguished his flames from his arms.

"Fine whatever but I am not some soldier and I don't take orders!" he said as Azula nodded and got up from the ground.

"Whatever you want I will be sure to provide. I am pleasured to have you traveling with us" Azula said, slightly licking her lips as she held her hand out towards him.

"Whatever, just don't make me regret it" he growled out as he shook her hand, already regretting it from the look on Azula's face and eyes. But at least Ty Lee seemed happy and that somewhat made it worth it.

She did save him so he figured the most he could do was travel with her and see the world. She seemed like a nice girl and might make this trip less annoying than he felt it would be

-Chapter End-

As you can see I messed with the order of things a bit, making it so they went to Ember Island sooner as I wanted Naruto to spend more time with Ty Lee and give him some chances to interact with Toph more.

Right now it is the start of season 2 instead of it starting off in season 3 episode 5 like it would have if I kept it at the Ember Island episode.

Naruto's whole set up is that he has an utterly strong spirit sealed away into him by the monks who use to live in the temple. Because of it he is immune to fire absolutely and can conjure white hot flames without any stances. This also counts for lightning later on when he finds out about it.

Naruto went along with Azula as he didn't want to fight and hurt the friend of the girl who had just saved him. He'll be on guard for a while, only really staying around Ty Lee as he trusts her more than he does Azula, who is already showing worrying tendencies towards him and his powers.

Next chapter will be the start of the story as well as some more development between him and Ty Lee. This chapter was entirely introductions to the characters and whatnot.

I have loved the idea of Monster of Ember Island for a while and after re-reading it one day I contacted XXX-Rated and asked him to adopt it and after talking we were able to create this new alternate set up while still using the base idea of the original version.

Also the ages will be cranked up slightly to fit the more mature-ish things planned.
