Chapter Text
Ursa walked up the stairs, her heart beating fast, the torches on the walls flickering as the flames dances. In her arms laid an weak infant with pale yellow eyes that barely manages to stay open. He was born without a cry or spark... Ozai couldn't care less of him, but Ursa did.
"Don't worry my little turtleduck, you'll get better soon." She softly said as the big doors opened with a loud creak as if it hasn't been open in years.
The room was big, the old red walls were decorated with dust red banners with gold accents of the Sun rising and setting around the room, and in the middle a marble table. Even with the years of abandonment Agni presence wouldn't let it just go that easily...
Ursa's eyes shifted through the room then put the baby on the marble table. "Please work.." Her words muttered, and got down into a bow on the floor. Words of prayers and pleas echoed the room, her eyes shut tightly as the air tensed. The baby's staggered small breath were like needle to the arm though she didn't get up, she raised her head towards the ceiling, where she knew the Sun would be at. At its highest peek. "Please Agni hear my pleas. Save my son, Zuko, from terrible death and give him life."
Her words were finished by a sudden gust of wind knocking all the flames out, silence filled the room then... flames of differnt colors rose up aswell on the marble table with the baby. My baby! Ursa rushed to her feet and tried to grab Zuko but the flames wouldn't let her. Dread and panic filled her body, she wanted to help her son not hurt him!
A bright light embraced Zuko's little frail body causeing her to shield away from it and cover her eyes, a second later the light was gone with the color flames aswell. Ursa heard a giggle. A baby's giggle! She rushed to the table and looked at zuko, he was differnt... his black hair was now golden as the Sun, and he was healthy. Her baby was healthy!
"Thank you Agni! You have blessed my baby with life. I will make sure he will know of his gift!" Ursa said happily, tears filled her eyes and scooped up Zuko in her arms. With a bow and a great smile Ursa left the temple with her Sun bless child.
Prince Ozai won't be to pleased though.
