A song fic about three characters. The song 'Aimless' is by Bethany Dillon. When I listened to it, I thought it just fit the three characters and maybe others but I used them. You may choose to listen it while reading. Either way, it's the lyrics making a point.


Azula

The curtain falls, down she goes

Everything she had done had been worth it. Every plan was successful. She conquered Ba Sing Se.

So long worth

And her brother is falling to her trap. Everything is going well according to her plan.

All the applause seems beautiful

They are rejoicing in her victory. Her father will be very proud of her when they go back.

It's got a hold on her

Her brother suspects her and the way everything is going on but she just smiles.

She whispers, "I'll go home"

When they arrived, she proudly walks. Everything is well.

And then she's reminded

That she doesn't know where that is

She was welcomed with honors and shouts of joy but that's all, nothing but that. Something feels lacking but she tries to ignore it.


Thought she belonged

Why shouldn't she belong? She is Princess Azula of the fire nation, a prodigy and favorite of the fire lord.

But she knows she don't

She always knew that. She wants more.

Thought she had love

I am his favorite. I am important.

But it is not enough

Why did mother always favor her brother over her? She is better than him.

Why did he look at her that way? Does it even matter?

Why did her friends betray her for her brother? They deserve where they are, away from her.

The pain inside is speaking to her

No one was there. Why is her mother there all of a sudden talking to her?

How could she feel like this

It isn't real. What she heard isn't real.

So aimless

Everything that she had done made her alone. She felt so lost and alone but couldn't accept. It just couldn't happen but it did.


Zuko

His glass falls

Everything that he always believes in shatters. Why did they agree to the plan? He speaks out.

Breaks into a thousand pieces

And everything just breaks like that. He was challenged to an Agni Kai.

Spilling out all he's tried to hide

He accepts to fight for what he believes in.

"I only wanted to be strong, to be brave

But it's driven everyone away"

His own father faced him. He couldn't and tried to surrender. He was burned in the face. He became banished from the nation he calls home. Everything was driven away from him.


Thought he belonged

Isn't he his father's son? How could he just do that?

But he knows he don't

He was in the wrong. He disrespected his own father. He deserves it.

Thought he had love

He deserves to be punished. It was his father's way of looking after him so he'd learn.

But it is not enough

If his mother was there, would things have turned out differently?

The pain inside is speaking to him

Where is she? Why isn't she there when he needed him? Why did she suddenly leave?

How could he feel like this

It shouldn't matter. He is no longer a little boy. He can take this and will do everything he can to regain his honor.

So aimless

He was so focused and didn't see his uncle's care for him. Somebody cared but he didn't notice. He was lost.


Toph

I've been him, and I've been her

I am the world's greatest earthbender.

Covered up under the dirt

I can do things others can't.

I want to get out

I'll escape from this house my parents caged me in.

I want to be free

I will go with the avatar.

And know where I'm going

I'll be his teacher.


Thought I belonged

They accepted me just fine in their group.

But I know I don't

We don't always get along.

Thought I had love

What my parents did to me wasn't because of love.

But it is not enough

But I wish they did.

An aching inside speaking to me

Maybe they did.

How could I feel like this

It doesn't show though.

So aimless

When this is all over, where would I go?


They've always known this wasn't home

All riches and power don't always matter.

I've always known this wasn't home

Being locked up isn't home.
