DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN AVATAR OR LAND OF OUR DREAMS BUT I WISH I DID! ; )
Anyway if you guys want more on Reintroduction then review on it. So this is a songfic and I don't usually read these let alone write them, but I love this song. I got it in choir and we are singing it right now so yeah here you go.
A young woman clad in green walked through the halls of her home. As she walked her eyes stared sightlessly into the dusty air before her.
With each step she took she could tell where everything was even though she was blind.
Toph turned into a room and walked over the the crib where one of her little girls waited, tears in her eyes.
"Miya, baby, what's wrong?" asked Toph walking over to her daughter trying to not to wake her twin.
"I miss Papa" said the five year old.
"I kow sweetheart so do I." Toph said as she became lost in a memory.
"I'll be back as soon as I can." Aang had to leave the Southern Air Temple, and along with it his wife Toph and his twin daughters Miya and Arie. A rebellion against the Fire Lord Zuko and his family Katara and their sons Orion and Roku. The suspected culprit of leading the rebellion was of course Azula, Mia, and Ty Lee. Aang being the Avatar had to go and stop it.
"Just make sure you come home safe. The girls need you."
"I'll be safe, I promise." And with that Aang jumped on Appa and flew off to the Fire Nation.
That was three years ago. Toph was brought back to reality by her little girl.
"Mama? Can you sing me a lullaby?"
"Of course sweetheart. Let's see, oh I know. This is one my Mom used to sing to me when I was little." And with that Toph started to sing.
Slumber now my darling one,
Rest for now the day is done,
Mother sings a lullaby,
Hush my darling do not cry.
May your sleep be as sweet at the wind on the waves,
Blowing gently toward far happier days.
May each breath be a promise to help you believe.
We're off to the land of our dreams,
We're off to the land of our dreams.
Sailaway, sailaway to the arms of America,
Sailaway, sailaway to the land of the free,
Sailaway, sailaway to a home for my children,
Calling to you,
Calling to me,
Calling to you and to me.
Papa waits on a distant shore,
Soon we'll be with him once more,
Moonlight shines on oceans deep,
As the ship softly rocks you to sleep.
May your dreams be as sweet at the wind on the waves,
Blowing gently t'ward far happier days.
May each breath be a promise to help you believe.
We're off to the land of your dreams.
We're off to the land of your dreams.
Sail away, sail away to the arms of America,
Sail away, sail away to the land of the free,
Sail away, sail away to a home for my children.
Calling to you,
Calling to me,
Calling to you
And to me.
Slumber now my darling one.
We're off to the land of our dreams.
As the lullaby ended Toph stood and carried her daughter to her crib. Once she had set her little girl down she moved to the balcony. She stared sightlessly at the stars. She thought about how much that lullaby was like her life. Aang was off on a distant shore. Toph had just received news that it was safe for her and the twins to go and meet him in the Fire Nation.
She was so lost in thought she didn't even notice the vibrations of a person walking up behind her.
"You know I love that song right?"
Toph spun around into a defensive position ready to knock the intruder off the mountain, until she realized who it was.
"You finally came back." And it was true, before the blind earthbender stood the very person she had waited three years to see. The Avatar. Or simply to her just Aang.
