The three royal ladies from the Fire Nation are the cause of the biggest problems for the Avatar. Formed as a special 3-man squad by Princess Azula herself, Mai, Ty Lee and the princess herself set out to hunt down the Avatar and his friends and see to it that his reign in this world was put to an end. They relentlessly chased him down until they finally managed to find the team split up and began a fight, but ended up without much luck. They then took over Omashu and captured the Earth King Bumi who is also the Avatar's close friend. In an effort to free the city the Avatar fought against the special squad, but then retreated due to their overpowering them. After so many relentless chases they finally managed to get a lead onto the Avatar by spotting the Kyoshi Warrior's cleaning up his bison Appa. They defeated the Warriors and stole their clothing with which they snuck into Ba Sing Se. They won the battle and took over the city after that the girls had a fight in the high security prison over the state of the Avatar and Azula ended up arresting her two closest friends after they assaulted her in effort to allow Zuko to escape.
