Fire Queen

Chapter: 6

"Are you ready?" Sokka asked standing in front of the throne room's door, holding all the maps, papers, scrolls, "Yeah, we have thought of everything that they can bring up, it has to work"

"It will, my instincts say it will," Sokka says putting his hand on my shoulder, I nodded the guard for them to open the doors,

When we entered everyone was already in their respected seats, Zuko upon his throne, he let the fire die down little so I can see him, he smiles at me which I returned,

"As you have already been told about our discovery on our trip to the colony, Fire Lady Ryu has come with a solution, with Sokka she's here to represent it, I have given my word to Fire Lady that we will listen to her idea with an open mind, With that said Fire Lady Please Continue," Zuko said,

I and Sokka bowed, we are standing on the opposite side of the throne in front of the table everyone is sitting around, a board have been placed here for us to put maps up on my request,

"Thank you, my Lord" I turned to Sokka as he put four elements signs on the board,

"We have been told from the start that four elements divide us, Water, Air, Earth, and fire, they divide the world in four, and it can't be combined into one, but it is not true at all four elements are part of nature, like we are, they all are connected, they can't divide us, we humans divide us" I started,

"Colonies are a great example of that, when people from two different sides were allowed to come and live together they become one, they formed a society in which they all can live together in peace" Sokka continued but was cut off by non-other than general Lee,

"I know we stop promoting fire benders as a greater race but saying no difference is just nonsense"

"WE are..." Sokka was going to explain but I cut him off, "Sokka if you don't mind can I take this one?" I asked, he nodded,

"General Lee, First we are not saying that there is no difference, we are saying that those difference don't separate us, we all belong to one race human race, other than that you warned me last time about being careful in these meetings, I will return you the same advice, don't interrupt, we will answer all the question in the end, and next time you come in these meetings leave your attitude outside, we want your advice, not your attitude"

He sat back down after saying a fake apology,

"When I arrived here first thing that shock me was the family I was marrying in to, it has an air bender, a water bender, earth bender, fire bender, and then a non-bender, this family is a prime example of how all elements are not dividing the human race, us humans are"

"We start with explaining this basic concept because people still believe that old tale, but since we have proof that people from around the world can live together in peace from the colonies and our family, we should go the next step," Sokka said, he put a paper in between the signs of four elements, saying Republic city, a safe haven for everyone, benders, non-benders,

"Republic City a safe Haven for every one of the four nations, The solution of the families living in the colonies, but just not that after the hundred-year war has divided the world even further apart, this can bring the unity world needs, where people from all four-nation live in peace, it can be the Salvation fire nation is looking for, a gift from fire nation to rest of the world"

"As Ryu said the world needs this, we need this, this can mend a lot of open wounds and prevent from opening new, Republic city is the hope the world needs, it will be an example for the rest of the world of peace and unity," Sokka said putting a Map on the board,

"For its location, we purpose a town known as cranefish town located on the shores of Yue Bay, it is one of the fire nation colonies, it is perfect, it is big enough for a city, it's near water and all resources needed for working of a successful city is available, other than that al lot of families that are a combination of two different nations already live there" Sokka explained,
