Ashes of Devotion [ATLA - Azula x OC]

[Rotceh]

Take the time you need ,TL is more important

 

[fireball900]

I rather suspect Bumi will get Toph on her last gasp of power, so that Toph is about to concede... and then Bumi pre-empts her, conceding first.

Bumi will be subtly pumping Toph for information during the fight.

This preserves his army for later. He chose this option in canon, and in this he has only more reason to do so.

 

[Lucernello]

AN: So, I couldn't sleep today, and it is Friday. Screwing my day over for you guys, woosh. There might be many mistakes but I will correct those later with the help of my brother. If anyone wants to help as well they can point them out for me. I would appreciate it.

Also, this is art from a small art streamer I found on twitch. I like supporting people that are starting their journey. It looks nice.
​

Anyway, enjoy.

99 A.G

It was finally happening! Toph had spent the last months practicing and working herself until exhaustion against Azula, and sometimes Lin when she wasn't busy. She was confident, as usual, but prepared to face a strong opponent.

The Mad King had accepted the challenge, and with the same wild cheerfulness he seemed to bring into everything, had guided them through the stone corridors of Omashu until the passage opened into a broad arena deep into the palace.

The king reached for the clasp of his cloak and threw the heavy cloth aside. Then, the old man jumped down into the arena, surprising even his own guards, and when he landed, the floor shook in a deep tremor that traveled through Toph's senses.

Toph was already grinning. Not cowed even for a second, she followed him down. Using earthbending to soften the fall as the ground turned bouncy then back to solid stone beneath Toph's bare feet. She extended her senses to map her surroundings, quickly identifying Lin sitting in one of the prepared audience seats and stands, along with Aiku and the officers from Omashu.

She could feel the size of the arena through the soles of her feet. It was a great place for a duel, she had to admit, an advantage to an earthbender for sure. Toph's grin widened before they reached the center.

"It is certainly nice to see the young generation excited." Bumi said, his voice full of laughter as he turned toward her.

"Come on, old man. Who wouldn't be excited? Let's do this!" Toph said, rolling her shoulders as she planted her feet more firmly against the floor. Bumi cackled at that, delighted.

Toph could already see some changes in the King's appearance. He was built big, almost like some of the fighters back in Gaoling. Gone was his hunched posture from before. It was certainly a clever way to look weaker and underestimate him.

"To make this more interesting." Bumi said, spreading his arms, "I want to add some rules for the duel."

Toph lifted her chin. "Rules?"

The king stomped one foot, and the arena floor groaned as a perfect circle rose around them, a thick ridge of stone pushing up from the ground in a clean ring. It was wide enough to fight comfortably, and it was something she was familiar with, having fought in the Earth Rumble tournament.

"Step outside the circle and you lose." Bumi said.

Toph laughed, unable to help herself. "This is more familiar to me."

"Anyone interfering for both of us forfeits the duel. Both of us can concede defeat as we see fit. It is not allowed to collapse the roof… and you are not allowed to pull from my beard." he said laughing, Toph only raised an eyebrow at him.

"Do you want to add a rule yourself?" Bumi asked. Toph shook her head, getting into her usual mantis stance. Bumi looked at her amused, then he lowered into a crooked stance himself.

"Then, let's begin."

Toph waited, listening to the weight of him through the stone. Bumi waited too, impossibly still for several long seconds.

"Show them our might, my King!" shouted an officer, cheering the monarch on.

Bumi's grin widened. "If you are not going to attack, little badgermole, then I suppose I will."

The floor exploded with movement to her senses, before the king could even launch his first rock Toph moved to evade, dodging the boulder that came her way. As she launched an attack of her own that was easily stopped, she had to rapidly turn sideways as a slab tore itself out of the arena and shot past her shoulder; it hit the far wall with enough force to crack it.

Another came low toward her knees, and another dropped from above as Bumi ripped stone from the raised rim and sent it falling at an angle that would have pinned her down had she been slower. Toph drove her heel down and split the low strike in half, punched upward to break the falling slab, then twisted with both hands open and hurled the shattered pieces back toward him.

Bumi laughed and leaned aside, letting the first pieces pass close enough to stir the air around his face, then stamped once and sent a pillar under his own feet. The stone lifted him smoothly, carrying him above the returning fragments before it curled forward like a wave and began to chase her across the circle.

Toph clicked her tongue, half annoyed and half thrilled, then used the same idea to summon up a platform beneath herself and rode it toward him.

The two moving ridges crashed in the center of the ring with a sound like an avalanche. The impact threw dust across the arena and sent vibrations running in every direction, and Toph jumped clear as her own platform shattered beneath her. She caught herself with a rising shelf of stone, landed low, and immediately answered with three angled columns that shot toward Bumi from different sides.

He broke one with his shoulder, bent the second aside with a casual flick of his wrist and the third should have caught his ribs, yet he dropped onto his back with ridiculous ease, sliding under it while the stone beneath him carried him along like a sled.

Toph felt the movement and drove both hands down, trying to trap the slab beneath him, but Bumi rolled with the motion, kicked up, and sent a burst of rock spines toward her before he had fully found his feet again.

Toph crushed them with a wall, although the force behind them shoved her backward several steps and made her bare heels scrape across the floor.

"The audacity of youngsters these days. My bones are not what they used to be, you know? Have some consideration for me, please." she heard him say.

He was strong, absurdly strong, but Toph now truly believed that even if he had an ace up his sleeve, she could win. Still, she had to adjust a bit, he had seen through her disadvantage, he was using his body movement to lie about his movements. His feet telegraphed one attack while his hands did another.

Toph lunged forward, refusing to let him keep the range. She slammed one fist down and sent the wall racing to his position, then bent the floor up around his ankle where he inevitably would dodge away from the attack. Bumi evaded and landed exactly where she wanted him, and the stone snapped closed around both his legs.

Toph grinned again, throwing her other hand forward, raising bands of stone around his waist and arms before he could settle into another ridiculous movement. The bands locked across his chest and shoulders, binding him in place from the neck down.

Toph could hear several guards gasp from the stands, while Lin leaned forward by the smallest degree.

"Got you, grandpa." Toph said. "Do you yield?"

Bumi's face stretched into a smile and for a moment Toph thought he was mocking her by making a face. Then all of a sudden, the ground behind erupted in her direction. Toph barely turned in time but it was still not enough to avoid a hit.

A blunt column slammed into her side and threw her across the circle, and although she managed to twist her body before landing, the impact still drove the air from her lungs when she hit the floor.

She rolled, dug her fingers into the stone, and stopped herself a hand's width before the raised boundary. For one stunned moment, her mind couldn't come up with an explanation for what happened, but her eyes grew wide once she understood what happened.

The stone bands around Bumi cracked and fell apart and he stepped free without much trouble.

"Being trapped in cold stone was refreshing." he said brightly. "Still, I must commend your creativity."

Toph pushed herself upright, and laughed. Her ribs ached where the column had struck her, and the taste of dust filled her mouth, but she was still awed enough to not care.

"That is so cool! You can bend with your face!"

"Of course, can't you?" Bumi asked, delighted.

Toph spat dust to the side. "Not yet, but I will still beat you without it."

"Ah, I was hoping you would concede." Bumi said.

"Never!"

Azula's team had infiltrated Omashu very easily. Using the cover of the night they had dropped from the gliders high above into one of the many rooftops of the city.

The city was old, layered, and it clearly had expanded many times over as the streets were both too wide or too narrow. They rose and bent across the mountain like stone rivers, with houses stacked over houses.

Their delivery system worked through the night as well, and the carts that would sail on those stone bridges and passages above the houses made it easier for them to land. No one was looking up and the noise the carts made sliding down muted everything else.

Of course, they had made it even harder for someone to spot them as they had dyed the parachutes black, along with their undercover outfits.

Azula crouched beneath the shadow of a raised stone walkway, one hand resting against the wall while two of her infiltrators knelt over a rough sketch spread across the ground. Now, they were tracing the lines in the small parchment with the map of the city, marking the entrances to their tunnels and military quarters.

The defenders had been moving people into the tunnels, so some entrances were very easy to spot. Some others were old maintenance passages, maybe used for storage supplies in mind, and others had clearly been carved with holding military personnel in mind.

Still, they had made good progress and Azula was confident that they had found the majority of them already. Now the next step was to enter one of those tunnels and find where it led.

Two guards stood near the mouth of the nearest passage, speaking in low, bored voices while their spears rested against their shoulders. Their posture was poor, their attention worse, but they were still present and they had to discuss the best way to deal with them.

Azula listened while her men whispered suggestions to one another, each one quieter than the last, and resisted the urge to silence them forever.

"We could take them quickly." Sergeant Jo murmured.

"And alert the next patrol when their bodies are found. We don't know how big the tunnels are, we could be down there for a long time." Azula replied softly.

The man lowered his eyes at once.

Captain Zhou leaned closer to the map. "There may be another entrance under the eastern steps, Princess. We marked a draft from below, but we could not confirm the passage without crossing the market road."

Azula studied the line he indicated, already weighing the risk, when the faint beat of wings cut through the alley. Her head snapped upward, quickly recognizing the animal.

A firehawk swept down between the roofs, its silhouette briefly crossing the dim band of moonlight above them. One of the guards near the tunnel entrance straightened, turning toward the sound with a frown, and Azula moved quickly to silence it.

Her hand shot out and a knife found its mark. The hawk dropped sharply without even crying out, and one of her men caught it against his chest.

At the same time Azula flicked two fingers toward the nearest lanterns, snuffing their flames. The captain followed her signal and snuffed the next light down the alley, then the next, until the narrow street sank into a darkness thick enough to hide them.

The guards looked toward the dead lanterns but Azula and her team were already gone.

She led the team deeper through the alleyways, moving swiftly through the city away from the tunnel entrance. No one spoke until they had passed beneath a narrow arch and settled behind a storage shed where the only thing they could hear was the delivery system close by.

Only then did they take the message from the hawk's leg.

"If they risked sending this here, then it was urgent enough to endanger the mission." she said.

The captain quickly gave Azula the message. Around her, the infiltrators waited anxiously while the princess read the parchment.

"The duel between Toph and the king of Omashu has more at stake now." she said at last. "If King Bumi loses, Omashu surrenders without a fight. If he wins then the entire civilian population will be granted passage out of the city toward Ba Sing Se."

One of the men stared at her perplexed. "The entire city surrenders, Princess?" he inquired.

"So the message says."

No one was foolish enough to say what all of them were thinking, which was fortunate, because Azula had no answer either. How on earth had Lin managed to convince the strongest earthbender in the world to stake Omashu on a duel was a question Azula intended to ask the moment she saw her again.

Lin had a habit of forcing impossible outcomes, but she wasn't charming enough to negotiate an entire city on a duel. It made little sense to worry about it now, though.

Azula folded the message and tucked it away. "Our mission is over. If Toph wins, the city may become ours before dawn, and we cannot be found skulking under its streets when that happens. If she doesn't we could blend in with the crowd and escape with them but I don't want to wait for that outcome and they may find us anyway."

Captain Zhou glanced back toward the tunnel route. "Princess, we will have to find another way out of the city. I am assuming there will be no assault to cover our withdrawal."

"Yes, you are correct." Azula said.

Azula looked toward the distant walls, thinking. They needed an opening. A small one would be enough if it appeared in the right place, at the right moment, and with the right amount of confusion to make the guards look somewhere else.

"Let's move closer to one of the gates, we will see if an opportunity presents itself."

On the move again, Azula was weighing her options and trying to come up with the best way to escape. As they reached one of the gates, she heard a shout rise from the direction of the gate, and she ordered her team to hide.

"Someone stole from my pouch! You have to help me. I was only able to sell a few of my cabbages when they took it from me!"

The cry echoed with such wounded outrage that several nearby voices answered at once. Azula moved to the corner and looked through the narrow gap between two stacked crates. A merchant had stopped near the gate, waving his arms while two guards attempted to calm him.

His cart sat beside him, loaded high with cabbages, the wheels secured with wooden stoppages against the slope of the road. The guards looked already annoyed, and the merchant was trying to explain what the thief looked like.

Azula lifted one hand signaling her team to stay put. She moved alone, slipping along the edge of the shadows while the argument grew louder, as the guards turned impatient. The merchant accused one guard of indifference while the guard just wanted him to move the cart so that it didn't block the road.

Azula approached from the far side, where the carriage blocked her from view, then crouched beside one of its wooden supports. A narrow flame bloomed from her fingertip and she touched it to the wood for only a moment, feeding enough heat into it to weaken it and not ignite.

The support darkened, brittle and quiet beneath her hand. She pressed two fingers against it, snapped it cleanly, then withdrew to her previous position before the cart began to move alone. The merchant did not notice until the whole stand lurched sideways.

The cart collapsed with a heavy crack. Cabbage spilled across the stone street in a rolling wave, bouncing between the guards' boots and scattering the opposite way from the gate.

"MY CABBAGES!" The merchant screamed as if he had witnessed a murder.

Both guards cursed, then rushed to grab the produce before it rolled down the slope and into the open street.

Azula gave another signal and her team ran, snuffing the lanterns and flames as quickly as possible towards the opened gate, keeping low against the gatehouse wall.

The guards were distracted by the merchant shoving a cabbage into their arms while running to get another one. By the time the guards turned toward the darkened edge of the gate, Azula and her infiltrators were already through the gap and moving into the outer road beyond the city.

Only when Omashu's wall rose behind them did one of her men dare to breathe too loudly. Azula allowed herself the smallest trace of a smile as she vanished into the dark road beyond Omashu.

"I'm so good. I bet I could get us into Ba Sing Se, assassinate the King and take over without anyone knowing about it." Azula said.

"No doubt about it, princess. What are we waiting for?" Captain Zhou said, laughing with the rest of the team.

Toph came to the conclusion that, if she couldn't really read his attacks, then she had to stay on the offensive. She moved again, in a choreography of movements, ripping a chunk of the floor behind him, then she followed with a barrage of compact stones aimed at his knees, chest, and head.

Bumi met the first wave with a stomp that flattened half the arena in front of him, quickly raised a wall behind him, then thrust his chin forward and made the stones around Toph's feet jerk sideways. She stumbled, corrected her balance, and nearly missed the boulder he launched with one hand while his head turned in the opposite direction.

Unable to dodge the attack, she met it head-on with her forehead, breaking the stone apart. Fragments still struck her shoulder and forearm, bruising her a bit and she had to retreat three steps before launching another attack.

Bumi started a dance-like movement, having his fists on his hips while moving his feet in quick succession, evading her attack and elevating earth spikes one after the other forcing her to keep moving out of the way of the incoming attacks.

As she tried to close the gap again, his attacks came hard enough to make each block costly, and she had to keep dodging. His stamina was surprising but she could still keep up, breaking some of the spikes and using them as her attacks which sadly didn't end up hitting Bumi.

Toph tried to send bigger slabs against him but he broke them easily and even spun in his place to redirect one of them toward her. No one was gaining an advantage but she had yet to land a hit on him.

She tried to predict his feet movement and send a discreet attack before he could keep his assault but he just rode her attack while laughing around the ring.

She tried to read his breathing, his weight, the deeper pull of his stance, and Bumi answered by throwing himself into motion so strange that the arena felt full of echoes. He slid, bounced, rolled, planted one hand, bent with his knee, then bent again with his face while his arms hung loose as if he had forgotten he owned them.

Toph was forced backward several times, and a few very close to the edge of the circle. This was the challenge that she was expecting though, winning here really would make her the best earthbender in the world.

He hadn't managed to land another hit on her yet, so Toph was happy to try different approaches. She was a bit worried that the king might have even more hidden talents. He was enjoying himself, teasing and commenting while keeping the combat going.

Normally she would be angry if it were anyone else, but this was the strongest bender she had ever faced, she supposed it was fair for him to be arrogant.

What really got her angry though, was not being strong enough. As the duel progressed, she felt her strength diminishing. Losing here would be disappointing not only herself, but Lin as well. If she won here the soldiers who she had trained and sparred with wouldn't need to risk their lives.

Yet, as she started getting tired, it was clear that winning was not as certain anymore. It was infuriating, and in that anger, something else started showing up in her senses. It was the same warm feeling she felt while sparring with Azula or Lin.

Heat and warmth spread through her seismic sense, and the earth beneath her feet now felt so strange. It was so evident now that she lost focus for a moment and Bumi gave her no time to think about it.

A massive slab rose beneath him and tilted, launching him across, flying toward her in a burst of speed that shouldn't have been possible for an old man like him. Toph raised both arms and caught the impact of his landing through a stone wall before it reached her, but he had already bent the floor under her left foot into a sinking pocket.

Her stance faltered, and the next strike came from the side, a shoulder-wide pillar that forced her to throw herself low to avoid being driven out of the ring. She hit the ground hard and rolled, then punched downward with both fists.

The arena floor shook and her attack finally clipped the king's right leg, but that didn't slow him down. The king pressed the attack and she caught the next boulder and crushed it between two rising slabs.

She bent the shards outward, compressed them into a dense block, and fired it back at him with both hands. Bumi broke it, but the force pushed him backward, and Toph felt the strain in her muscles already after finally landing a small hit.

As she analyzed the best strategy to continue the fight she noticed that the King was also exerted. His breath was even more uneven than hers, and his stance was more defensive now.

Toph followed that opening with everything she had. She struck low, then high, then low again, forcing him to answer one attack after another. The floor around them shook and cracked as they traded blows.

For the first time, Bumi stopped laughing and his witty comments were not there anymore. She decided to give her all to try to end the fight. With a series of quick and powerful attacks she threw everything she had left at the King.

Bumi, though, blocked and dodged, only getting hit once through the fury of her offensive. Toph was tired after that. Then, with a roar, Bumi summoned a massive wave that rolled toward her in hopes of probably throwing her from the ring.

Toph planted herself and raised both arms, catching the front of the wave before it buried her. The force dragged her heels through the floor and it impacted hard against her; the wave folded over itself, growing higher, trying to drive her backward over the boundary.

Toph bent against it, grinding the stone down inch by inch, but it took her a lot of effort to do so. At the end of the attack, her hands were shaking and she was pushed back towards the edge again.

Toph was exhausted but giving up was not something she would ever do. Trying to regain ground, she drove her hands down into the stone and pulled with every furious piece of herself drawing everything that she had left in her to commit to one last attack.

The arena trembled beneath her palms, the ground broke leaving huge cracks through the ring. Toph could sense that warmth again, even stronger now, and she grabbed it like she did stone. Something similar to mud came forth and she could clearly bend it up.

All around her, heat invaded her senses and she felt fire spread through the ring. She realized she was bending something hot enough to compare it to Lin's flames. The ground in front of her changed.

She kept a small portion beneath her feet solid but the rest lost its clean solidity, the stone glowed and whistled. The air grew hot enough to sting her face.

The entire ring was being liquefied, collapsing into a molten sheet that spread outward across the circle. Toph gasped, yet she did not let go. She could feel it, differently from normal stone, stranger and harder to hold, but still she was able to bend it as she wanted it to.

The molten earth spread in a widening pool, swallowing the floor between them in a slow, bright surge. Bumi jumped back, and for the first time in the duel he looked unsure. Toph stood on the only patch of solid stone left near the edge, breathing hard, sweat sliding down her face as the arena hissed around her.

The lava spread quickly, cutting off Bumi's path and eating through the ring he had drawn with his own bending. He leapt to a narrow pillar he summoned, then another, but the molten earth followed the collapse of each support faster than he expected. He twisted in the air, and landed outside the circle where earth was still solid.

The moment his foot touched down, though, Toph knew she had won the duel. Toph stood trembling on her patch of stone, her hands still lowered, her chest heaving as heat rolled across her skin.

"I am the best earthbender in the world! Don't you forget it!" she yelled at the audience, and it felt so good. Then Bumi began to laugh.

"Well… That was unexpected." he said, amused. "I lost."

Toph swallowed, suddenly aware of how tired she was, how badly her side hurt. She lifted her chin anyway, because she was still standing inside the circle and he was not.

Bumi's grin widened until it seemed too large for his face. "You have a lot of fire in you, literally." he said, laughing at his own joke.

Toph allowed herself a small smile while the heat touched her ankles and she had to bend it away before she got burned. At the same time, she felt dizzy and the heat was not helping her breathe any better.

Exhaustion took hold of her and she felt herself falling, but before she could touch the ground, cold hands caught her. In a gentle embrace, Lin scooped her up and carried her away. She was too tired to feel ashamed of it.

"That was amazing, Toph. Like the legend of Avatar Kyoshi we hear in Chin Village, you just bent lava!" Lin said.

"Of course it was, it's me..." Toph replied, weakly.

"The best earthbender in the world." Lin finished.​

 

[Sharker117]

That is admittable a clever way to do lavabending. One of the most potentially powerful earthbenders constantly living and sparring with two already powerful firebenders.

 

[Henshark]

Toph lava bending because of her connection to azula and lin is awesome but does it go both ways and if so how will it affect the fire benders?

Click to shrink...

No, standard firebenders cannot bend lava. Lava is molten rock, making it a sub-skill of earthbending, not firebending. While firebenders can heat rock to create lava or extract heat from it to solidify it, something we only see once in the show when Sozin is helping Roku fight the volcano initially, they still cannot manipulate molten rock. For earthbenders, it functions similarly to waterbenders manipulating ice. You can think of it as earthbenders accelerating rock particles which generates the heat and then liquefying them using immense focus to overcome earth's solid state

 

[Rotceh]

That was incredible, as always, Luce!
Haha, Toph has combined her earthbending with the firebending training from the army to discover lavabending. She's truly a prodigy.

Well, that will undoubtedly further enhance Lin's legend and prestige within the army—the woman who conquered the city that resisted for almost 100 years without losing a single troop.

And even though Toph is too tired to notice, Lin just jumped into a lava pit and walked through it to retrieve her. If her legs can handle her flames, I don't think lava will be much more difficult.

Well, in this image you can see more or less the canonical abilities of each element. Toph still has to learn and master lava properly, but Azula's problem is directed towards temperature control, since Lin has decreed that combustion is too complex and probably works similarly to heating the earth to liquefy it... wait, does that mean Sozin at least had the basics of temperature control?

That is a neat graph. I don't think Lin would endanger the princess with combustion bending anytime soon, no. Sozin had the basics, yes, for sure. It was honestly surprising that it was not developed or mentioned in the series after that.

 

[Lucernello]

It would be cool if someone made a propaganda poster. I'm sure the Fire Nation, with the discovery of lava bending, jumps at the opportunity of making Toph the poster earthbender for others to join the mighty cause of the Fire Nation, or some bs where cooperation leads to more powerful benders if they are on the right side, using Omashus' success as well.

Haha, way better. I might commission one poster in the future, maybe next month, it's a nice addition
