Day 7 the big finale, I don't own ATLA and yup no title today either


The sky turned dark

And the rain poured down,

It covered the earth

and moistened the ground.

the lightning flashed

the thunder roared

the storm seemed to come

on its own accord.

Some animals fled,

away they ran.

In the palace of fire

lived a wife and her man

He on his knees

as he tried to prevent

his beloved from leaving

whilst he tried to repent

Wrong had he done her

for the umpteenth time

"If you would just listen

then you would see I'm-"

She cut him off

with a slam of the door

the sound of his voice

she wanted to hear no more

She ran to the garden

to clear her head

Katara feed the turtle ducks

with a small piece of bread

With the last little crumb

for the last little duck

she turned to see Zuko

"Just my luck."

"If you would just listen

to what I'm trying to say..."

She locked with his eyes

before walking away

He grabbed for her wrist

before she could go

he needed to talk

there were things she must know

She snatched her hand back,

lightning brightened the sky

he pulled her back in

and she began to cry

He whipped off her tears

then cupped her face

"I can remove the hurt

without a trace."

"Katara I'm sorry

for all that I've done.

You know that I love you

and you're my number one"

She buried her face

into his chest

the feeling of his warmth

was what she love best

The rain had soaked them

the night air was brisk

they where breathing hard

were they taking a risk?

She didn't care

she was in bliss

her arms draped around them

she melted into his kiss

The rain still fell

but they didn't care

they were lost in each other

to the world unaware


I really had a blast with Zutara week, and I'm thankful to the people who have reviewed and liked my work here and on deviantart. I did kind of cheat and write a poem instead of a story, but my brain just wouldn't cooperate. Hopefully next year's words will be even better, and i won't procrastinate (though i probably will) and actually right something a little bit more worth reading. oh and I know that I fail at poem grammer, so i'm sorry if it's hard to read

BTW would any happen to know how to make a cut on livejournal, no matter how much I try I can't get it to work. Thnx to anyone willing to help me.
