Zhou was discovered to be a Firebender at the age of 8, thou, his training did not start until his 10th birthday. Zhou was extremely talented when it came to his bending, but his mother did not value the skill of bending, and instead insisted on teaching him cooking.

He soon became protecting of her, and cut down his adventures to take of her. When she was 5, she came along with Zhou to the local market to pick up fruits; After picking up the items, they began to walk down the street, on the path back home, when in the distant air, a loud thump was heard, as a cart came speeding down the road. Zhou heard the crash and turned to grab his sister, when he noticed she wasn't there. He ran swiftly up to the sound of the thump, and saw her twisted and trampled body on the road under the cart…
