The Haven House is surrounded by the Fawn and her Cultist Army (actually they are under Sarah Gaunt's mind control). Gambit is ready to fight them alone so that the humans, the Outlier Kids and the wounded Wolverine are safe. However, Gambit's teammates - Nightcrawler and Jubilee, refuse to let him fight alone. Also, the Outliers (Jitter, Deathdream, Calico and Ransom) refuse to take shelter as they rather die fighting alongside with the X-Men than to live cowering in the shelter. Wolverine also comes out, ready to fight despite his wounds. Thus, the mutants rush out to fight Fawn and the cultist army despite the odds. Even though they are outnumbered, the X-Men and the Outlier Kids refuse to back down in battle. This fight goes well until Fawn knocks Calico off from her horse. Calico is about to be sliced by the cultists when Wolverine comes in to save her. Jubilee notices that the Cultist Army are still not down and they are overwhelming the X-Men and the Outliers. However, Gambit has one more trick up his sleeve - The Eye of Agamotto. In order to end the battle quickly and save his friends, Gambit uses the Eye of Agamotto to make Fawn and the Cultist Army disappear.

lee wakes up one morning and feels fantastic.

there's a spring to his step as he goes through his morning routine. his breakfast tastes even better than usual- it's like the rich, earthy taste of the miso soup has somehow become even more to his taste. he gets dressed in his favorite clothes- a deep, forest green robe that's also comfortable and easy to move in. he braids his hair, tying it off with a green ribbon and looks at himself in the mirror. his bangs are almost long enough now that they completely hide his scar.

he's lee.

it's an odd thought. of course he's lee. who else would he be? he doesn't dwell on it- nor does he dwell on the marked absence of the vague sense of dread that's plagued him ever since he'd served tea to princess azula. it's gone, a bone deep sense of contentment in its place. his life in ba sing se is simple, but it's a happy one- especially now that the fire nation is gone and things are going back to normal.

his good mood must be more obvious than he thinks, because everyone at the lotus blossom seems to notice. the owner asks him about it, and lee just shrugs. he doesn't really know, exactly- he'd just woken up this morning in a great mood. maybe he's just finally gotten used to his life here in the middle ring?

jin sees it too, when she visits on her lunch break. she can't always make her way over to the lotus blossom- the flower shop she works for is a good distance away from his tea shop- but she tries to make it whenever she can. he smiles at her, and some tiny part of his mind notes that it feels more natural than ever.

they kiss before she leaves, and the regulars and his coworkers alike tease them both. lee flushes and stares down at his feet, but he's not unhappy about it. the teasing used to make him feel a little testy, but it doesn't anymore. he knows they only do it because they earnestly want them both to be happy.

his father notices his good mood too.

"i don't know," lee shrugs, "-i just woke up this morning and felt like... me, i guess."

he laughs, because it sounds weird when he says it out loud- but his father only thoughtfully strokes his beard. he tells him that he's proud of him, and lee beams- he's not sure what he's done to earn his father's praise, but he certainly doesn't mind it. he feels... free, he thinks. like he's been trapped in a nightmare, and he's finally woken up.

(he doesn't black out that night.)

when he wakes up the next morning, he feels... settled. his father is up early, so he tries to explain it to him- and probably fails. he thinks moving to the middle ring has really been good for him. there was always something missing to his life in the lower ring, but he thinks... he thinks he can live the rest of his life happily here.

today's his day off. he has a date with jin. they arrange to meet at his favorite theater. they're running a new production- the valiant tale of how avatar aang defeated fire lord ozai, and how his companions put an end to the fire nation's planned airship assault. lee and jin watch as general iroh defeats princess azula in an agni kai, and ascends to the throne of fire lord- and declares an end to the war.

(lee doesn't twitch, even once.)

the theater goes up in cheers when the white lotus retake ba sing se- but the cheers are even louder when fire lord ozai falls, his bending taken. lee and jin are right there with them, and eagerly spend dinner chatting about the play. the adventures of the avatar and his friends sound so exciting- so distant from their simple life. lee briefly wonders what it would be like to travel, but then laughs the idea off.

ba sing se is his home. why would he ever want to leave it?

Azula is seething but I get it, I’d be pissed off too when my friend betrays me for the brother who dumped her via letter

Who won?

A good summer holiday is the best time of year to sunbathe and/or destroy people who participate in a volleyball tournament. All in Ember Island.

Azula: *Sniff* Do you smell that? Katara: Can you help me set up the umbrella? Aang sunburns easily. Azula: Katara: Okay, fine. What should I be smelling? Azula: My next victory. Katara: Whatever you say, help me first, worry me later. Azula, while setting everything: Do you see those people right there? Katara, while watching Azula do all the work because you need to work smart, not hard: The ones playing volleyball? Azula: Exactly. I’m going to destroy them. Katara, raising an eyebrow: Azula: In a volleyball tournament. ZUZU, LET'S GO. Katara: Wait, do you not want me to go with you? Azula: No? I am going to impress you with my victory. So watch me. Katara: Thanks, La. Sure. Have fun, sweetheart. Zuko: I don’t want- Azula: I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY, DUMB DUMB. 

[Azula starts to drag him across the beach]

Katara: Should I be worried? Ty Lee: The worst that could happen is they make the volleyball net burn or scare every other contestant. Mai: Depends on Azula’s mood of the day. Aang: We should participate; it seems fun. Mai: Don’t. Aang: They wouldn’t scare or burn me. Ty Lee: Did you not hear Azula? She was going to impress Katara. Mai: She won’t kill you, but she will make you cry. Ty Lee: And you will cry hard. Just look at Zuko, and he’s playing with her. 

[Zuko literally sobbing while he’s jumping like a pro-player]

Katara: They really are good. Mai: Wait, is it working with you? Katara: They just won three plays in five minutes. It is impressive. Mai: Meh. Katara: But it’s too easy. Aang: That’s why I want to play against them. Katara: Put on your sunscreen. Ty Lee, let's go. Ty Lee: What?! No! I was sunbathing; I don’t wanna get burned. Katara: Don’t be a coward. C’mon now. Ty Lee: Fine. Mai: Is she becoming more like Azula? Aang: Nah. That's how Katara is. Sometimes they are too similar for their own good. Katara: TY LEE, YOU CAN’T LEAVE THAT PLACE WITHOUT PROTECTION. ARE YOU DUMB?! PLAY LIKE A PERSON. Azula: YOU CANNOT BE THAT SLOW, ZUZU. ARE YOU WEARING ROCKS ON YOUR FEET? HAVE YOU GAINED WEIGHT AS FIRE LORD? Mai: Fascinating. Aang: Can you help me put sunscreen on my back? Mai: No.

Rogue, Gambit, Jubilee and Nightcrawler train the young mutants on the makeshift obstacle course. They play the game of 'Capture the Flag' with Nightcrawler holding the belt as the 'flag'.

The kids have their own tragic backstories to tell through the pages:

Jitter was bullied in school for being the first to answer the questions in class. As she had been beaten by the bullies, Jitter used her powers to get back and in the process disabling one of her tormentors.

Ransom is born with a missing heart (the black hole) and because of this, it was apparent from birth that he is a mutant. His parents then abandoned him when he got kidnapped. It seems his black hole can absorb materials and it makes him stronger.

Calico tells her own backstory where she came from a rich and sheltered life. Her mother who raised her in isolation without any interaction from the outside world. Calico has a warped notion about what love is and was psychologically abused by her mother all her life. Calico's only friend is her horse, Ember. When her mansion burned down, Calico left her home with her horse for the first time.

Deathdream was a mutant born in Kyoto, Japan. He died four times on the day of his birth; his mutant power activating at some point along the way, and allowing him to revive himself. Months after his mother died, Deathdream's power enabled him to talk to her, and she told him the story of his arrival.

----------

As a Singaporean, my only issue with Jitter's backstory is the inaccuracy of the Singaporean school where the teacher and the students speak Malay language in class. In many Singaporean schools, the people speak in different languages (though they mostly speak English) depending on their race. While most of the lessons (science, math...etc) are spoken in English, the students are taught in different languages like Chinese, Malay or Tamil on Second Language class depending on which language the child or parent chooses. If Jitter's Second Language class is taught in Malay, then the teacher would be wearing a Tudong (the Malay version of the headscarf worn by Muslims) instead of leaving her head uncovered for a Malay teacher. Also, Jitter's classmates look more Chinese instead of a mix of Malay students and Chinese students. Though the only accurate part about the Singaporean school portrayed in the comic is the competitive nature of the Singaporeans.

Will firebending play a role in Lee/Zuko recovering his memories ?

Yep! Being a firebender is pretty irrefutable proof that maybe his memories aren't entirely to be trusted. He's supposed to be a nonbender from the Earth Kingdom, born and raised in Ba Sing Se. His parents are both Earth Kingdom. His father is an earthbender. There's no reason for him to be a firebender.

The trick, of course, is actually getting Lee to consciously firebend. Because he's subconsciously firebending all the time, without even realizing it. lan-wei's good, but he's not 'completely turn a bender into a nonbender' good. in the particular case of firebenders, they kind of need to bend every once in awhile.

so he trains lee to firebend subconsciously by manipulating heat. the air is always warm around him in the winter, and pleasantly cool in the summer. his tea is always the perfect temperature. and it's not exactly like katara and sokka can point this out to him. he doesn't notice he's doing it. but how do you get someone who's convinced he's a nonbender to firebend?
