Previously on Avatar Wolf: (Stuff that never happened in my books)

Quynan sighed. She turned, smiling at her friends. A group of many wolves stood behind her. In front, was a large fleet of firenation ships, but they were all hers. Apri and Isis's childhood friends had found them and they were joining them on the Fire Nation Invasion.

Also, friends they had made along the way. The Duke and pipsqueak were found once again, along with the Swampies and the Inventor with his son Taeo.

They struck against the Fire Nation, but..they were found out. It was inveitable that the Fire Nation knew about the Day of Black Sun. Even though they knew, the Avatar group still fought and took short control of the Fire Nation.

But, when Quynan went to fight Lord Ozai...he wasn't...there. He was inside a bunker.

They lost time when Quynan was side-tracked by Azula. Azula had captured her sister and Azula bought the Fire Nation time, by distracting them from finding the Fire Lord, but Zuko found him first.

Zuko told his father the truth and he left the Fire Nation to join the group.

It took Zuko many tries to try and persuade the group to let him in, but Wyvren, Seader and Apri and..Isis weren't that happy with it and still didn't like Zuko.

They finally agreed that Zuko needed to teach Quynan firebending and it was the only way since Iroh was captured once more.

Now, it was time for Quynan to be taught firebending.

CHAPTER 14: The Firebending Masters

title (c) Avatar The Last Airbender

Zuko stared in at Quynan from the entrance of the cave. It was nearly dawn. The night was fading and the best time for firebending. He watched the sun begin to rise over the cliffs. He looked back at Quynan who was still sleeping, and he looked cautiously at the large black mountain sleeping beside her in a curled up ball.

He walked in and gently shook Quynan, trying not to wake Wyvren, who snored lowly beside her. He gulped and shook her a little more rougher. He jumped when he Wyvren's low growling voice.

"What are you doing?" Wyvren hissed lowly, trying not to wake his sleeping female. He glared Zuko with pure hate, not knowing why Quynan let him join the group.

"It's time for her to be taught firebending." Zuko hissed back, with the equal amount of attitude toward Wyvren, that Wyvren showed him. But, for Quynan's sake and the others..he tried to lose it, but Wyvren always refused to make him feel welcome.

Wyvren growled and layed his head back down without another word. He nudged Quynan gently and she woke up.

Zuko looked confused and looked down at Quynan. "It's time to wake up. We've got some training to do." he told her and backed out of the cave and waited for her outside, just as the first morning rays poured onto his bright brown fur, making his eyes glow like the rising sun itself.

Quynan walked out of the cave, still half-asleep. She finaly woke up as the bright sun rays hit her dark grey eyes. She winced and finally came out and sat by Zuko, who was warming himself up by the sun. His eyes were shut and breathed out heavily through his nose.

Wyvren couldn't help, but poke his head out of the cave as he watched Zuko look at Quynan try to train her about firebending, but...

When Zuko tries to firebend, nothing about, but a small whip of a candle flame. Quynan blinked. Zuko growled and tried again, but still nothing happened. Zuko growled and tried once more, but the flames form his paw seem to blow rasberry at him. He hung his head and looked up at Quynan.

"Maybe...that you lost you firebending power because...your whole life...your fire was fueled by your rage..and hunting the Avatar. Maybe, because you changed sides you lost it..maybe you need to find a new modivation. She looked back, hearing Wyvren.

"Darn, and I thought you'd be helpful. Oh well, now how you going to get rage back?" he snorted with a smile. "It shouldn't be that hard to get you angry." Wyvren had no fear and strode toward him and started to poke him with his paw. Wyvren laughed and walked around him and continued to poke him again and again..and again..and again.

"THAT'S ENOUGH!!!" Zuko yelled at Wyvren, glaring at the older and much larger male. "Obviously its not working.." he growled, his eye twitching frustrated more than ever now.

"Maybe, you need to find the first firebenders." said Toph stroding over to the other, woken by Zuko shout at Wyvren. "The first earthbenders were the Badgermoles; that's how I learned."

"Of course! The first airbenders were the Skyeagles. That's how the Air Nomads learned." Quynan exclaimed.

"That's all very well, but..the first firebenders were the Dragons..and their extinct." Zuko said nonchalantly.

"I know of a sacred firebending temple, maybe we could find some inspiration for you there." Quynan told Zuko, looking over at him.

"Okay, we can try.." he huffed.

Wyvren blinked and narrowed his eyes. He watched Quynan head off toward the temple, Zuko right behind her. "Hey Zuko!" he called. "If you don't find any inspiration, you can just leave us!" he called.

Zuko ignored Wyvrem and walked off after Quynan. He smirked and touched Quynan's tail with his playfully, and glanced at Wyvren without turning his head.

Wyvren growled, but Toph put a pillar into his face just as he was about to jump at Zuko.

"You two are, children." Toph rolled her eyes and walked back into the cave.

Wyvren rubbed his flat nose. "Ow.." he growled and walked after Toph with one more look at Zuko and Quynan. He growled and and went back to bed...

-------------------------------------

"Do you really think we'll find Dragons?" Quynan asked.

"I highly doubt it..." Zuko sighed as they headed to a large building. They had just dodged many booby traps.

"Why?" she asked questioningly.

"Because, my grandfather had put them into extinction, not wanting any competion. He wanted to be the best firebender ever." he explained. "My uncle slayed the last dragon..." he frowned, losing all hope...

Quynan sighed and looked around as they entered the tomb. All around, in a circle, were statues of wolf anthros. They all had different poses.

Zuko stayed in one place and studied them. As for Quynan she walked all around, staring at the statues, they seemed to lead to one to the next.

As she walked, she stepped on one tile and it sank into the ground. Quynan yelped and leaped backwards, ready for a trap to spring. Nothing happened and Zuko looked back at her with a cocked brow. Quynan smiled sheepishly. She looked back at the statues and smiled, she ran at Zuko and grabbed his tail and tugged him back. "Zuko! I want you to dance with me!" she exclaimed.

"WHAT?!" Zuko yelped and snatched his tail away from her.

"No, look, these statues are a firebending form! Come on!" Quynan barked and stood a stance.

"Fine." Zuko snorted defeatedly. He went to his anthro form, as well as Quynan.

As Quynan moved her left leg back, her foot stepped on a tile, the tile sunk into the ground. Zuko did the same and felt the tile sink. He blinked and followed the statues till both Quynan and him faced each, their knuckles toward eachother above their heads.

As they did this. Something moved in the middle of the statues. Quynan approached it, followed by Zuko.

A stone pillar rose, with a golden egg at the top. Zuko reached toward it. "Hey! Don't touch it!" Quynan exclaimed. "The thing is probably rigged with a trap!" she barked and tried to catch Zuko, but it was too late. He had lifted the egg from its pedistal. Suddenly it sprayed a pruple gook and Zuko was thrusted onto the ceiling into some cell bars. He was stuck and couldn't get free.

Quynan yelped as the door slammed shut and she jumped up, trying to get Zuko unstuck, but the sappy liquid touched her fur and she was stuck alogn with Zuko. "Do something, before we drown!" Quynan yelped.

"I can't move!" Zuko shouted. Soon, everything went black.

-----

"So, what are you doing here? Why were you trying to steal our precious treasure?!" hissed a black wolf with white markings. A group of them with different markings stood behind the larger one.

"We weren't trying to steal your treasure, sir. I'm the avatar and I've come to learn firebending, because my friend here, needs to learn from the Master Firebenders." Quynan explained.

"You will be judged. You must climb that mountain, where you will meet the masters. But, you must hold onto a flame from the ancient fire. If you can hold onto that flame, you will be judged, but if not...You will be struck down." the male hissed.

Quynan and Zuko were lead to the top of tomb and they were each give a flame. Quynan took it heistantly, she could the feel the warmth rush through her paws and she chewed her lip. "You must reach the peak of the mountain before sun down." said the elder.

Zuko Quynan went off toward the mountain. Quynan was falling behind, trying to keep her small flame alive.

As they reached the top of the mountain, they each looked toward a large cave. The sun began to set beside them. As it did a wind blew, catching Quynan's flame and whipped out. She yelped in surprise. "How are we supposed to take these Masters if they turn on us?" she asked.

"We're the Fire Prince and the Avatar. I'm sure we can take them." Zuko winked.

Quynan sighed and gasped as two large Dragons; one red, the other blue, poured out of each of the caves. "Still think we can take them?" Quynan whispered.

Zuko quickly hushed her.

Quynan watched the Dragons dance around them. "Zuko,....I thinkt hey want us to dance with them.." she whispered.

Quynan and Zuko did the form they were taught by the statues, the Dragons following each of their movements.

As they finished, the Dragons crouched on each side of the mountian. Then, both Dragons blew out fire. It swarmed around Zuko and Quynan. The fire was a beautiful rainbow.

Zuko watched the colors. He whispered: "I understand."

At that Dragons finished. They retreated into the their caves, disappearing.

Zuko and Quynan walked down
