Great news for uninsured adults in the USA who want a COVID-19 booster! It now appears that ALL CVS locations are now active participants in the Bridge Access Program. The Bridge Access Program gives out free Covid-19 vaccinations to 18+ adults who otherwise can't afford one, so if you have a CVS near you, please go get one! For others who don't have a CVS near them, please go to vaccines.gov, click on "Find Covid-19 vaccines", fill out which vaccines you prefer (you can mix different vaccines if you have to so i reccomend just marking all of them for the age groups you need), and when the next page loads mark the "Bridge Access Program Participant" option to see only locations that are Bridge Access Program participants. Hopefully, other places that aren't CVS will start participating soon, so just check back every so often to see if there are any updates. The CDC Bridge Access Program website also has more details on what locations will be participating, but only CVS is appearing as an active participant on the vaccines.gov location finder at the moment.

The first clear thought Zuko has after his father burns his face is that he has no idea where he is.

He sits up. His head is still groggy, but at least he can think straight. He's not delirious from the pain anymore. He lightly touches his face where his father burned him and finds that it's swathed in bandages. His hair has been shorn- probably to treat the burn. He's not in the medical wing of the Caldera, or in his room. He has no idea where he is. It looks like a room one would find in a fine manor, but it's not the palace. There's no windows for him to look out of.

He gets out of the bed, and walks towards the door. He half expects it to be locked, but it opens without a problem. It leads into a long hallway- one that is also unfamiliar. Zuko frowns. Did father have him taken somewhere else for treatment? He doesn't remember anything, but he knows some time must have passed- he's just not sure how much.

He doesn't know what else to do, so he heads down the hallway.

It's strange. There's no windows. No other doors. No sign of anyone. Just when he's starting to get an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach, he sees the end of the hall. There's a great door before him, etched with designs of the moon and the sun- the ocean and the earth, and the four winds that blow across the world. He suddenly feels like he shouldn't be here.

The door opens at the slightest touch.

Zuko suddenly realizes he's in the company of spirits.

The door shuts behind him.

Agni- he is sure that it is Agni- is the one who speaks to him first. He tells him that the Avatar has disappeared- leaving the world without a bridge between the two worlds. Zuko frowns at his choice of words. Disappeared? Not killed? Zuko's stomach twists as he thinks of his friend Aang. Has father already raided the air temples? Has the comet come and gone?

...is his friend alive or dead?

The spirits won't give him an answer. They say they've brought him before them for a reason. They've chosen him to fill the Avatar's duty while they are gone- not their worldly duty, to mortal men. But their duty to the spirits- the bridge between worlds. In order to resolve this, they have chosen another human to fill that role.

They've chosen Zuko.

He doesn't understand. Why him?

But they don't give him an answer. They have given him a gift, they say- a blessing. He does not have the power of the Avatar- and they cannot give him that. But they can give him an undying body and an unchanging face. Zuko doesn't understand what they mean at first.

He will eventually.

He cannot die. He cannot age. Time passes and he will not change. The rest of the world will move on without him- until the day the Avatar returns, and they release him from his service. He is bound to the spirits- what they ask of him, he must fulfill- no matter what it is.

He cannot refuse. The spirits have chosen.
