CHAPTER 101: THE PRODIGY WARRIORS
The times of prosperity that followed also improved the lives of the younger Avatar Warriors, who were given just as much honor as the prominent figures like Zakura, The Four Benders, and the world leaders. They were all prodigious children, and they too were hailed as legends.
Vigo followed Meili around a lot, showing increasing interest in her. The two of them flirted as they got older, and their arrogant natures made them both play “Hard-to-get”. Ultimately though, Vigo found him self bending to Meili’s will most of the time, as her stubbornness was unmatched. One thing that other people did notice about him was that he talked much, much more often than he used to, despite his low voice.
Vigo became a powerful earthbending master, and after a few years had passed, he actually had the guts to get straight to the palace to ask Meili’s parents for Meili’s hand in marriage. This permission was granted, though ironically, Meili, 20 at the time of his proposal, slapped him for not asking her earlier. Vigo then reminded her that she was a year older than him, but neither one of them cared about that. They grew up happily together, and had many children of their own.
Sanaki visited her family a lot, and they always loved to see her. She was always one to strongly defend her family, her small frame and her blindness usually throwing people off. However, she was the little prodigy of the family, and was always there without fail to keep the peace. She was known worldwide for this peace-keeping tactic of hers, because she had various ways of keeping people in line without involving violence. She proved to be very effective.
Sanaki also got involved in a love life a few months after the war, her subject of interest being Maric Dragmire. The two of them began talking more and more often, and eventually their talking turned to flirting, and their friendship eventually led the two of them to get married. Needless to say, neither one of them was ever content with them ever staying in one place; so they traveled around a lot. Sanaki herself became a master firebending teacher, just like her ancient namesake, Sanaki Li Chan, had done over 1300 years ago.
Reyson married Malak as soon as the two of them grew old enough to do so. Needless to say, no one opposed this. It was unknown if he planned on taking the throne of the Fire Nation later on in his life, but Reyson’s reasons for this were personal. Besides, Orzon and Ayumi were doing a good job as it was. Malak became less shy, and Reyson became very good with words, much like Tenoko Dragmire. He became a very influential figure, also because of his prodigious firebending skills.
Reyson never settled down either, for, like Malak, he learned to like to go places, and also liked checking up son some of his old friends, such as Vigo, Meili, Sanaki, and Maric, since the six of them had bonded pretty well during their time together [though the story doesn’t really show this, as it mostly focused on the war]. Like the rest of the Avatar Warriors, Reyson’s fame spread worldwide as well. However, when it all boiled down, Reyson was still very fond of his mother, and spent a lot of time with her before he was old enough to marry.
Meili took a fancy for Vigo, and the two of them eventually married. Occasionally, Meili found herself wondering what Vigo’s face looked like, as, being blind, she had no idea what his face, or hers for that matter; looked like. Regardless, Vigo said that if she turned ugly, he would let her know. The two of them had an interesting relationship because of their clashing egos, but deep down of course, they were truly fond of each other regardless of who “won”.
Meili’s wicked sense of humor earned her a distinct reputation similar to that of Tenoko, and she became very popular as well. It was uncertain if Meili was going to take the throne of the Earth Kingdom after Zuki’s reign, for she was actually doing a good job. Meili seemed more interested in the arena matches that Zakura hosted around the world, because everyone thought they were an interesting event, especially when one of the Avatar Warriors showed up for a challenge. All in all though, Meili’s life continued to be a happy one.
Maric continued to watch over her sister until they “finished growing up”. They also spent a lot of time with their mother, Tenoko. Over time, both of the twins, particularly Malak, picked up a little of Tenoko’s humor; though ironically, if any of those prodigies had it the most, it was most likely Meili Meisha. Regardless, Maric became very popular, not only for his feats in the war, but also because of his heritage.
Maric eventually fell in love with Sanaki Foxx, as over time, the two of them sensed a relationship forming between the two of them, and they decided to work off of it and build it up. They grew very fond of each other, and a few years down the road, they married. Despite their age difference, Maric was still taller than Sanaki, for Sanaki was always a tiny young lady. It was unknown if Maric planned on taking the throne of the Water Tribes. Besides, Michiko and Fukuda were doing well enough as it stood. Either way, he wound up happy, and he and Sanaki wound up having several children of their own.
Malak’s fondness of Reyson continued until the two of them were married. She grew up into a beautiful young lady, and like her brother, she became very popular. She learned to enjoy socializing, particularly with her fellow Avatar Warriors, who actually met a lot because of the strong bonds of friendship that had formed while the group was together. As she grew older though, Malak was known for her gentleness and kindness. She and Reyson gave birth to several healthy children, and moreover, had a happy family.
Malak also found herself wondering about her family, particularly who her father was. However, having remembered the anguish it caused her mother to bring it up, she decided that fate knew what had happened, and that she should be content with that for the time begin. Besides, Tenoko was getting older, and Malak agreed that she should be happy as she usually was in her older years. Regardless, there was a strong mother-and-child bond between her and Tenoko, and this same bond also extended to her twin brother, Maric, as well.
As time passed, their children grew older and befriended some of the other skilled benders around. None were as prodigious as The Prodigy Warriors, as Vigo, Meili, Reyson, Sanaki, Maric, and Malak came to be known as, but many of them were very skilled. It turned out that Iresu had also had a couple of children, and Iresu’s grandchildren befriended the children of The Prodigy Warriors.
Moreover, Orzon and Ayumi had not lived nearly 50 years without having children, and so by the time The Prodigy Warriors were having children, Orzon and Ayumi were having grandchildren. All in all, the young benders became all good friends, and under Zakura’s watchful eye, many of them entered into tournaments to increase their skills. Bending as an all-around art became much more common, and the average skill level of a person was much, much higher than it was 1300 years ago. Those that were called “masters” back then were around what was an intermediate level in modern times.
“To think that we’ve come so far,” Reyson remarked to his comrades later on in time; the six of them were at the Eastern Air Temple for the time being, looking over at the sunset.
“Aye,” Malak replied, “it was only a few years ago that we were all just random children at the right place at the right time. Now look at where we’re at—there are statues of us everywhere.”
“No need to remind me,” Meili laughed, leaning against a large statue of her self, “I know I’m the most awesome person ever to live.”
She beamed, and the statue’s face had Meili’s trademark smirk on it as well. On it was a plaque that read: “Meili Meisha; 17; earthbending master. Avatar Warrior: one of the greatest legends to ever live.”
There were similar plaques on every statue of every warrior; which gave their name, age during the war, and bending ability. All of them though, were labeled with the phrase “Avatar Warrior: one of the greatest legends to ever live.”
“Wipe that smirk off your mug,” Vigo laughed, forming fists; “I’ll challenge you, woman, to a duel.”
“Whoa now,” said Sanaki, jumping between them, fireballs on her hands. “No fighting in the air temples—you two know that. Have at least some respect for the Air Nomad’s love of peace, for spirit’s sakes”
“Fine,” Vigo grunted, “you’ll get away this time, Meili Meisha.” [This incident had been before Meili and Vigo had married; about 2½ years after the war had ended]
“Wouldn’t you know it,” Maric chuckled, “we’ve hardly changed after the war ended. It just seems we’ve become more and more... individual.”
“Aye,” Reyson replied, “well, and the fact that we’re apparently famous.”
“Aye,” Maric remarked, “but it is not fame that makes a hero, but rather, the deeds themselves.”
“Precisely,” Malak replied, “aye, we might have been bending prodigies, but it was the fact that we got dragged into the war and we were willing to stick it to the end that we became famous. It is not something to take for granted, and I would not settle for it.”
“Amen,” Meili replied, “I mean, we have a reputation to keep up nowadays. We are The Prodigy Warriors.”
