"Ha-ah, excuse my nephew's mannerisms my young friend, he can sometimes be inconsiderate." said Iroh as he glared daggers at Zuko.

Hearing him Levi only nodded in that he understood before he unfroze Zuko.

"WHILE I WAS OUT THERE CHASING THE AVATAR YOU WERE HERE DRINKING TEA WITH OUR ENEMIES?" screamed Zuko at Iroh, his face turning red.

"Why not look at the bright side, if my young friend was there you would have suffered a much worse fate haha, so in a sense you can say I was keeping him distracted for you." said Iroh almost making a vein pop on Zuko's forehead.

"AAAAGHH." screamed Zuko, not able to take it any longer as he got out of the room and slammed the door behind him.

Shaking his head, IIroh spoke, "Sorry about that but it seems my nephew had already driven away your friends, care for a ride? We can drop you at a place of your choosing." said Iroh feeling a little bad for causing trouble for Levi.

"No need Uncle Iroh, I can manage, plus I think your nephew might just get a stroke if we did that." said Levi shaking his head and making Iroh laugh out loud.

"Well before you go let me send you away with a small gift of mine." said Iroh as he walked towards a wooden cabinet, sliding it away and lifting the floor beneath it revealing a hidden compartment where dozens of tea bags were hidden, Levi could smell the beautiful aroma wafting in his direction and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Although he was speechless as he saw this scene, Iroh was hiding his tea leaves as if they were gold, 'Is he afraid some soldier would steal it? Would they dare to?.' thought Levi, what he didn't know was that he had just hit the nail on the head, otherwise why the need for all of this, in the end he decided to just mind his own business.

"Here you go, make sure to use it sparingly." said Iroh as he handed the tea beg to Levi who held it with two hands as if he was receiving the most precious thing in the world.

"I would have given you another one for your master but he'd taken so much these past years already, he almost emptied my stock." said Iroh with a helpless tone and sad tone hanging his head low.

Levi, who had just been about to thank Iroh paused in shock before asking, "What did you just say?"

"Your master had almost emptied my stock." repeated Iroh, his mood getting worse.

Hearing him Levi felt his blood boiling, he could swear he would have lost control of his fire bending if it weren't for Gamer's mind.

'That damn old man.' thought Levi, barely holding in his anger as he remembered all those times Tenzin came asking him for some of his tea, sometimes he even pretended to be sick, it turned out the old bag of bones was hiding his own tea while leeching off of him all this time.

***

Southern water tribe - inside Tenzin's home.

Three people were sitting on the ground around a round table facing each other and sipping on tea, one old man, one who had traces of whole hair on his head but still seemed to be full of energy and the last one was a young man in his twenties, the atmosphere was calm and relaxing.

They were Tenzin, his son Kato, and Tobirama respectively, if Levi was here to smell the aroma wafting around he would have immediately recognized it as Iroh's tea.

"This is some quality tea indeed." commented Tobirama praising the tea as he sipped on it with Kato nodding on the side in agreement.

Tobirama was shocked inwardly he had never tasted anything that came close to this even back in the ninja world, it would have taken a top-tier medical ninjutsu practitioner to make something this good

"Haha do well to enjoy it, this is a gift from my dear student after all." said Tenzin laughing, of course he wasn't going to admit that he had scammed his own student out of it, hearing him the other two could only sip it in silence while feeling grateful for Levi inwardly.

*Atchoo* 

Out of nowhere Tenzin sneezed.

"Bless you." said Tobirama and Kato at the same time.

"Thank you." replied Tenzin, but inside he was confused, he wasn't sick or had any allergies so he didn't know why he would suddenly sneeze out of nowhere.

'Am I developing an allergy to tea?' questioned Tenzin before he shuddered at that thought and stopped thinking about it fearing it might come true.

Walking out of the Fire Nation ship Levi could feel the Fire Nation soldiers envious gazes on him, or more specifically on the tea bag in his hands.

'So I was right? Iroh was indeed afraid the soldiers would steal it.' thought Levi as he headed towards the village hiding the tea bag in his inventory when he was sure nobody was looking.

Aang and the others had indeed left the island like Iroh said, but Levi had instructed Acnologia to follow them and he had just told him that they were making a detour and coming back from the other side, most likely to avoid being spotted by the fire nation.

Soon Levi reached the island and he saw the smoke rising from a lot of buildings. It was obvious there was a fire there previously that had been put out, but there were a lot more houses and farms that were still on fire.

"Where were you?" came an angry female voice from behind him.

Turning around, Levi saw Suki staring daggers at him, her folding fans at her side as if she were ready to fight him.

Suki knew Levi was the strongest member of the avatar group, if he had been present a lot of damage could have been avoided so she was understandably upset.

"Well believed it or not but I was holding back one of the strongest people in the world from coming inside your little village." said Levi, of course with Iroh's personality he wouldn't have done anything to the poor villagers he might have even stopped Zuko from causing more damage instead, but suki didn't know that.

"I…I see, Ha-ah sorry about my outburst, it's just been a long day." said Suki sighing and apologizing before turning around and walking towards the village to help with the damages.

Suddenly she paused and turned towards Levi, "Thank you." she said before she kept walking away.

Levi felt a little bit awkward, he didn't know how to reply as he hadn't really done anything in fact he was relaxing while sipping some tea.

Before long Appa appeared in the sky before it landed, the Fire Nation ship was long gone in a hopeless pursuit of them.

"Well there he is, we looked everywhere for you." said Sokka as he jumped down from Appa although Levi knew it was more of a question than a statement.

"We didn't find you so we pretended that we escaped before coming back." added Katara, but from her expression Levi knew she also wanted to know where he had gone.

Levi gave them the same explanation he had given To Suki which they easily accepted.

"We need to leave now guys." said Aang after hearing Levi's explanation, looking at the damaged houses with a little bit of sadness.

"Can we stay for another day? Please please, please?." said Sokka as he started begging them.

Levi knew why he was saying that but he didn't mind. After a bit of debating they agreed to help the island as much as they could before Leaving tomorrow morning.

***

How…how is this even possible." muttered Suki, shaking as she looked at the scene in front of her in horror.

Sokka, Katara, the villagers and even Aang, Momo, and Appa were just as shocked looking at this scene, it wasn't something a human should be capable of.

A gigantic ball of water, so big that it covered the sun casting a huge shadow on the island, it was as big as half of the island.

The ball of water rose slowly from the ocean before it shot into the sky so fast that a lot of people could barely track it, soon enough it disappeared from everyone's sight, and before long heavy rain started falling down and it didn't stop for a long while.

"What the hell do you guys feed that guy?" asked one of the villagers.

"Mostly vegetables and fish?" replied Sokka but the villagers looked at him with a look of suspicion not believing him and Sokka didn't bother to try and explain he knew it was useless.

"Ha-ah, I'll never catch up to him will I." said Katara with a bitter tone in her voice.

"Hey, don't be like that, I believe in you." said Aang with a cheerful expression making Katara smile.

"Thank you Aang, or should I call you Aangi?" replied Katara with a teasing tone making Aang stutter for words not knowing what to say.

***

On the shore of the island Levi lay on his back resting while Acnologia in his small form was running around in circles enjoying the rain, he tried opening his mouth and swallowing it before his face scrunched up and he started shaking his head from the salty sea water making Levi laugh.

This time Levi had to use Limit breaker to do what he just did, even with how strong he was currently there was no way to achieve that, and he didn't activate limit breaker the way he usually does by just tapping into it, this time it was a continuous use that lasted for quite a while and that's why he was feeling a little bit sour now.

But it was still way better from years ago when it would leave him bedridden, 'And it would get better from now on.' thought Levi looking at the system notifications as he supported himself with his hands and got up.

That night the entire village was sitting around a huge bonfire having a feast, they had just survived a fire nation raid without suffering any major damages and without losing a single villager.

Sokka was dancing and drinking with the men, Aang was running around with the kids showing them some tricks while Katara was with the girls and the Kyoshi warriors, the Kyoshi warriors were not in their battle attire tonight but in normal everyday clothes.

Levi at first chatted with the men before his social battery ran out and he chose to sit alone and eat his food instead.

He could see from his peripheral vision that some of the girls were looking at him while blushing and sometimes they would burst out in giggles, he could also see that they were flocking around Katara asking about him.

'Strength is still the basis of everything.' He couldn't help but lament once again, before his show of strength today they didn't pay him much attention, even Aang got more attention than him, but after it he could tell that a lot of them were dying to have a chat with him

Before long people started leaving, only his group, the Kyoshi warriors and some girls remained, soon Suki approached his brother and took him to god knows where, and before long one of the Kyoshi warriors seemed to finally gather her courage as she approached Levi drawing the attention and envious gazes of other girls around.

"So Levi, I heard from your sister that you're quite the expert when it comes to martial arts. Care to teach me a few moves?" said the Kyoshi warrior with a confident tone but Levi could see her face turning as red as a tomato.

Levi held his amused smile, he knew where this was going so he decided to lightly reject her, "Sorry but.." said Levi but he suddenly stopped mid-sentence, he could see the face of the girl drop slightly, but that wasn't why he stopped.

"I am sorry, what do you mean?." she asked, her tone shaking a little bit.

'Why should I reject her?' thought Levi, and no matter how much he thought about it he couldn't find a convincing reason for it, so he made his decision.

"I meant to say sorry but I need to finish my food first." said Levi, making her face light up before he continued, "But when a beautiful lady like you comes knocking on my door who needs food?." said Levi before he put his tray of food beside him and got up offering his elbow for her to take which she quickly did.

"So may I ask the name of my beautiful companion." asked Levi as he looked her straight in the eye, making her blush.

Now that he took a closer look she was really beautiful with big brown eyes, a perfectly symmetrical face, and long brown hair reaching her lower back, and as a Kyoshi warrior, she had an amazing figure with curves in all the right places.

"What? What did you say." came the girl's hurried reply as she stuttered on her words.

Levi couldn't help but laugh at her innocence, it seemed this was the first time she got to know a man and it was showing.

"Your name, what is it?" replied Levi.

"Oh, Tala my name is Tala." said Tala in a low voice as she tightly held Levi's arm and they walked further away from the campfire.

"Tala, What a beautiful name that is." Said Levi smiling and he meant it. He liked the sound of that name.

Levi and Tala just kept on talking about random stuff and laughing as they walked and before they knew it they were outside the doors of a big building, it was the Kyoshi Warriors dojo.

Levi could feel Sokka and Suki inside but he quickly disabled his ethereal sense when he captured a certain scene, his face scrunching up a little.

"Levi? What's wrong." asked Tala as she stared at him curiously with her big round eyes.

"Nothing, don't mind me, let me teach you those moves we talked about now." said Levi with a smile making Tala turn red, Levi even felt heat radiating out of her a little.

Taking his hand Tala led him inside of the dojo before they walked down a certain hallway and entered a room, it wasn't much but there was everything a person may need with a bed, table, chairs, weapon rack, and a bathroom on the side.

"This is my room, hope it is to your liking." said Tala standing in the center of the room with her hands behind her back and a blush not leaving her face.

"It's nice, way better than mine back in the southern water tribe." said Levi as he looked around the room.

"Now about those moves." said Levi with a smirk on his face as he approached Tala making her stutter and back up until she hit the wall with her back.

Soon enough Levi was towering over her and looking down on her with his hand on the wall.

"I...I…" Tala tried to speak but she couldn't find the words, her heart was beating so rapidly that she feared it might jump out of her chest and she was breathing so rapidly and shaking like she had just finished a heavy exercise.

Seeing her like this Levi knew what to do as he held her chin with one hand and planted a deep kiss on her lips, feeling his lips touch hers Tala closed her eyes and enjoyed the deep kiss before she finally opened them as their lips parted, her shaking and heavy breathing were nowhere to be seen.

She looked deep into his eyes for a second before she jumped into his embrace wrapping her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist kissing him passionately.
