When we're adult again
The next day in the main hall, Sokka and Will stood in front of all the others servants holding pointers.
"Alright everyone, I bet you're all wondering why you're here, right?" Will asked.
Sokka contued. "I'll tell you why. We have exactly twelve hours, thirty-six minuets and twenty seconds to create the most romantic setting known to man or bison!" Sokka laughed a bit at the last. "Or bison."
Will shook her head and everyone else looked at Sokka like he was an idiot. Will then made a hand gesture and two teenagers brought a table over. On the table on the rose under its cover.
"We should remind you that if the last petal falls from this rose the spell will never be broken!" Will said. As she spoke she tapped the rose's cover and every time she did it moved closer to the edge of the table. The kids quickly moved it out of the way and Will fell to the ground.
Sokka helped Will up and turned back to the teenagers.
"Okay all of you know your assignments. So half of you go the west wing. Half of you go to the east wing. And the rest of you come with us" He instructed.
At that all the servants ran away from the two friends except for Aang, Elyon, Irma, and Cornelia.
"Lighten up guys!" Irma said, playfully slapping Will on the back.
"Yeah just let nature run its cross" Aang agreed.
"It's obvious there's a spark between them" Elyon added.
"Well I know that," Will retorted. "But I don't see any harm in fanning the flame a little."
Sokka nodded. "Besides they have to fall in love tonight if we ever expect to be adult again!"
Cornelia nodded. "Right, adult again."
Irma sighed. "Adult again."
Aang smiled. "Yeah and just think of all the good things that will mean!" Then he began to sing.
Aang: I'll be cooking again
Be good looking again
The air bender wrapped his arms around Cornelia and Elyon.
With a lovely young girl
On each arm
When I'm adult again
Only adult again
He walked over to a mirror and looked at his reflection.
Poised and polished
And gleaming with charm
He walked over to Elyon and wrapped both arms around her waist.
I'll be courting again
Chic and sporting again
His young finance giggled and sang along with her lover.
Elyon: Which should cause several husbands alarm
Cornelia and Irma joined in.
Cornelia and Irma: We'll hope down from this shelf
Aang and Elyon: And tout de suite, be our selves
All four: We can't wait
To be adult again
Upstairs Chris and Lillian were running through the halls laughing.
Chris and Lillian: When we're adult again
Only adult again
When we're tiny little kids no more
When we're adult again
Only adult again
In Taranee's room Hay Lin was laying on the bed.
Hay Lin: Oh, boy won't it be swell
I'll wear lipstick and rouge
And I won't be so short
And I'll easily reach the top shelf
I'll exude savior faire
I'll were gowns
I'll have more hair
It's my prayer to be adult again
Meanwhile in the stables…
Will and Sokka: When we're adult again
Only adult again
When the world once more
Starts making sense
The two walked over to where Elyon and Aang were grooming Taranee's ostrich horse. Will put a hand to her forehead.
Will: I'll unwind for a change
Aang: Really?
Elyon: That would be strange
Will and Sokka got mad
Sokka: Can we help it
If we're t-t-tense
The two of them calmed down.
Will and Sokka: In a shack by the sea
We'll sit back sipping tea
Let our early retirement commence
Will and Sokka threw towels on Elyon and Aang's head. The engaged couple pulled them off in annoyance. Then they looked at each other and smirked evilly. The wrapped up the towels as they stood behind Will and Sokka.
Will and Sokka: Far from fools
With ears full of wax
I'll get down to brass tacks
At that moment Elyon and Aang whipped Will and Sokka with the towels on their rear ends.
And RELAX
All four: When I'm adult again
Meanwhile a group of kids were cleaning up Appa's room.
Kids: So sweep up the dust
From the floor
Let's let some light in the room
I can feel, I can tell
Someone might break the spell
Any day now…
Shine up the brass on the door
Lillian cleaned the handle to the room
Alert the dust pail and broom
Chris swept up all the dust in the room
If it all goes as planned
Our time may be at hand
Any day now!
Some of the kids rolled out a carpet as Irma and Cornelia walked over to the window and opened it
Irma: Open the shutters
And let in some air
Cornelia: Put this here
And put those over there
Kids: Sweep up the years of sadness and tears
And throw them away.
Meanwhile in a sitting room, Taranee finished reading a story to Appa. "For never was a story of more woe then this of Juliet and her Romeo."
"That was an incredible story" Appa said.
"I knew you would like it!" Taranee cried triumphantly. Then her smiled faded to look of uncertainty. "I-I would like to ask you for something."
"What's that?" Appa asked, eager to please to girl.
"I would like a second chance" Taranee said. "Would you have dinner with me tonight?"
Appa's eyes widened in shock. "Dinner? Me? With you? W-well- I that would be-I mean-" Taranee smirked and smiled knowing that Appa would say yes. Then she walked out of the room a smile on her face.
When Appa saw that she had left already a large smiled lit up his face. "OH, YES!" He shouted happily.
Irma, Cornelia, Sokka, Will, Aang, and Elyon, smiled widely. They had heard everything. They gleefully jumped up and high fived each other. It wouldn't be long now.
Irma, Cornelia, Elyon, Aang, Sokka, and Will: When we're adult again
Only adult again
When the girl finally sets us all free
Cheeks will bloom again
We're assuming again
The 6 friends all jumped on a banister and slid down laughing.
We'll resume our long-lost joie de vivre
Meanwhile Chris, Lillian and Hay Lin were polishing the armor in the corridors.
Hay Lin, Chris, and Lillian: We'll be playing again
Hoildaying again
And we're praying its A.S.A.P.
Sokka and Will saw Napoleon in a covered in mud and they tried to catch him. They chased him all the way to the ballroom and he left a trail of mud
All: When we cast off this pall
And we'll stand straight and walk tall
Some servants ran behind Will, Sokka and Napoleon cleaning up the mud.
And we're finally adult again!
Outside Lillian and Chris were cleaning the window.
Lillian: We'll be dancing again
Chris: We'll be twirling again
Chris and Lillian: We'll be whirling around with such ease
In the garden Will was acting like a traffic signal until Elyon literally ran over with a wheelbarrow.
Kids: When we're adult again
Only adult again
We'll go waltzing those old one-two-threes
A few servants planted some flowers while others clipped the hedges to look like various animals.
All: We'll be floating again
We'll be gliding again
Stepping striding
As fine as you please
When everything in the garden was finished Will and Sokka put a sign on the ground that read 'Don't step on the grass.'
Like a grown up always does
Aang and Elyon turned on the fountain which gave it the finishing touch to the garden.
I'll be older and wise
All the servants, except for Hay Lin, stood in front of the fountain.
On the glorious day
We'll all shout hip-hip hooray
When we're all adult
Upstairs Hay Lin suddenly jumped onto a high balcony wearing a swimsuit.
Hay Lin: AGAIN!
Then Hay Lin jumped down. Knowing she would land in the fountain all the servants scattered, but Will, Sokka, Aang, Elyon, Irma and Cornelia banged into each other and fell to the ground just as Hay Lin landed in the fountain. A big splash of water drenched them all. They looked at each other before they burst into loud laughter.
That night, Appa sat in a bath tub while Irma and Cornelia were giving him a bath.
"I can feel it!" Elyon said as she and Aang walked into the room. "Tonight is the night!"
Irma dumped some water onto Appa.
"I'm not sure I can do this," Appa said.
"You don't have time to be a timid little girl!" Elyon said, pointing to the rose.
Aang nodded. "You must be bold and daring. How do you think I got Elyon?"
Appa nodded. "Okay bold and daring. Got it!"
"Okay big guys that's that," Cornelia said.
Appa got out of the bath and dried himself off.
Elyon and Aang stood next to him and told him of the night they had planned.
"Just picture master," Elyon said. "There will be music and romantic candelight."
"Provided by us of course," Aang put in.
"And then when the moment is right, that is when you confess your love!" Elyon said.
"Yes I can-I-I, no, I can't," Appa said, as Irma and Cornelia began to do his hair.
Elyon and Aang looked at each other. "But don't you care for Taranee?" Aang asked.
"More than anything," Appa replied.
"Well then you gotta tell her!" Elyon said.
"All finished!" Irma said.
Elyon smiled. "There! Oh, master you look so, so…" She trailed off seeing what Cornelia and Irma had done.
"…Stupid," Appa finished looking at his hair which was covered in curls and bows.
Aang and Elyon pressed their lips together. "Not totally the word I was looking for," Aang said, trying to hold in his laughter.
"You need a little more off the top," Elyon said.
Then Will entered the room. "You're lady awaits, master," She said, giggling as she bowed.
