A.N. This is my new story. It is AU present time with no bending…

Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar or Viva La Vida… but I really like em both

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sweep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

Aang smiled as he hummed along to the beat coming from his 80 gig iPod. He could almost imagine a powerful being controlling the waves. Bringing them up and down at will.

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listen as the crowd would sing:

"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

And I discovered that my castles stand

Upon pillars of sand, pillars of sand

He looked up at the driver and smiled. When he saw he was being spoken to and hadn't heard a word of it. He removed one black Skullcandy headphone and heard Gyatso say:

"I mean you look like the Unabomber dressed like that."

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can not explain

Once you know there was never, never an honest word

That was when I ruled the world(Ohhh)

Aang smiled and looked down at his clothing. True, he was wearing a hoodie. But no glasses. And the fact that his hoodie had band names emblazoned all across it in various colors of, what looked like, still wet dripping paint didn't help Gyatso's case much either.

It was the wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in.

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People could not believe what I'd become

Aang smiled. For some reason that was always his favorite part of this song. Something about the way the wind was described stimulated his imagination.

Revolutionaries Wait

For my head on a silver plate

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be king?

Gyatso stared at him as if waiting for an answer.

"Oh I'll be fine, don't worry about it. Only a fool would believe I was the Unabomber." he said with a laugh

"I know that." Gyatso admitted reluctantly. "I'm just worried. You're going to be gone all year." Aang smiled. He had known this conversation was going to happen eventually. He was simply waiting for it.

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can not explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

"I know but it won't be too bad. I'll be fine. I mean come on it's a great boarding school. What could happen?"

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can not explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh"

"I guess…" Gyatso gave in. "Just promise me u won't do anything stupid."

Aang smiled and said "I won't do anything you wouldn't do."

Gyatso smiled and shook his head. "That's not very reassuring."
