This is probably ancient, and overused, but I don't care. It was REALLY fun! And now I have proof that my computer is obsessed with the Lion King. [no joke.]

Nine Zutara bits and one surprise :D

The rules for this iTunes meme:

Put your iTunes on shuffle. Write the first thing that pops into your head when listening to the song, and finish writing before the song is over. Repeat nine more times.

1. Can You Feel The Love Tonight [The Lion King]

Zuko watched her hair fly out in the wind. He could stare at it for hours and never grow bored. He mentally smacked himself. He wasn't supposed to feel this way for her. This would never work. Never.

Katara stared over the cliff, at the ocean in front of her, wondering how long this rugged wind would continue. She sighed, a sigh of disappointment. She was disappointed in herself. She was suffering an acute case of denial. She looked back at Zuko, and saw he had been looking at her. He turned away, pretending he hadn't, but she wasn't fooled. Somehow, this made her whole night.

Toph grinned to herself. She could feel Zuko and Katara's heartbeats, and knew something that both of them were trying to ignore. They were in love.

2. Be Prepared [The Lion King]

"Azula won't be easy to beat. We need to come up with a strategy."

Zuko turned and looked at the waterbender in surprise, "That's a good idea."

"I have those every once in a while," she said wryly.

He grinned, "Ok, let's talk strategy."

"You go straight for her, distract her, while I sneak up from behind."

"What if she kills me before you can get to her?"

Katara drew a sharp breath, then saw the glimmer in his eyes, "You're not that weak, are you? I mean, I know I can beat you in five seconds, but I thought it took Azula longer."

His grin widened, "You can't beat me in five seconds"

She smiled. She loved this banter.

He wouldn't die. She'd make sure of it.

3. Show Me Your Glory [Third Day]

"You think you're so great, don't you."

"I am," the firebender scoffed

"Fine. Show me. Show me your amazing abilities"

He rolled his eyes, but he complied. He went through a lengthy demonstration.

"You didn't have an opponent." She shrugged.

"What!"

"Fight me. You won't win."

Thus ensued a fight, the likes of which hadn't been seen in a while. It ended up being Zuko pinned to a tree. Their hair was loose, their clothes torn, and they were both panting.

For a long moment they just stared into each other's eyes. Suddenly something snapped.

"Tell no-one," murmured Zuko, and Katara nodded.

4. Better Together [Jack Johnson]

"I wish you would play the Tsungi horn for me."

Zuko shot a look at his new wife, "Not gonna happen."

"Please! Uncle Iroh said you were so good!"

"Not gonna happen," he repeated, turning back to his scroll.

"I bet you're amazing." She sighed sadly

Zuko looked back up from his scroll, into her amazing blue eyes. They were sad, but he could see the amusement in there too. He stood up and went to her.

"I'll play the Tsungi horn for you," He wrapped his arms around her, but it was futile. She jumped up excitedly

"Really!"

"On one condition."

"Yes?"

"Just you."

She grinned.

5. It's America [Rodney Atkins]

Katara looked around her, rather overwhelmed.

"This is the Fire Nation" Zuko grinned nervously, watching her reaction.

She smiled up at him, "Let's go explore"

They saw the busy markets, the docks, the housing complexes. They saw poor people and rich people, happy people and sad people, children and adults. They helped a lady get her purchases home, and helped a child find his mother. They saw life.

When the day was done Zuko turned to Katara.

"What do you think now?"

"It's amazing," She breathed, "It's so amazing."

Zuko had never felt more proud in his life.

6. Mr. Mistoffelees [Cats]

"I'm so sick of all this magic bending!" Sokka flopped down onto his sleeping bag, shooting glares at the four benders.

"I know you're feeling left out Sokka…" Katara bit her lip, "We don't think any less of you, because you can't bend. You're still an amazing warrior."

"Yeah Sokka, you're great!" Aang grinned at him

"You are a really good warrior," Zuko shrugged, seeming embarrassed at having to give Sokka praise.

"Your brain may be the size of a Leechi Nut, but your warrior skills are fine." Toph stomped her foot on the ground, "Snap out of it!"

It didn't help. Nothing helped.

And then she walked in.

"Sokka, love, get over it. I can't bend, and you don't see me crying." She kissed him, and then smiled.

And he got over it.

7. Only The World [Mandisa]

Katara stared at the women around her. They were all so… perfect. All dressed in their red and black robes, their perfect makeup, their perfect smiles. They spoke and moved with grace, they were kind and nice to everyone, they never lost their tempers. They were skinny as toothpicks, but they didn't look sick. They didn't have any scratches or scars, or a hair out of place. They sickened her.

And Zuko was talking to one. She saw him laugh, saw him touch the lady's arm. Aang came up behind her,

"Zuko looks like he's having fun."

"Aang! You surprised me."

She had forgotten she was supposed to be here with Aang. They had parted a while ago, but they had stayed amiable. Now she was supposed to be his date tonight.

Not pining over Zuko.

"They're sickening aren't they," the soft, familiar voice sounded in her ear. She noticed Aang melt away kindly.

She turned and flashed the newcomer a dazzling smile, "Yes Zuko, they are. But your decoy's doing a marvelous job with them."

8. One Day I'll Fly Away [Moulin Rouge]

She felt imprisoned.

"Katara, come help me with dinner!"
"Katara, come help Kinnak, he hurt himself,"
"Katara, I can't clean this up all by myself!"
"Katara, Kiriak has asked for your hand. I believe he was quite impressed by your healing his brother. He's rather smitten."
"Katara, you must marry him. He's got a good position, a good family. He's the perfect match."
"Katara, your wedding is in two months. Can you help me with this now."
"Katara, you'll wear this dress for your wedding. It was your great grandmother's!"

She never imagined her rescue would come in the form of the Fire Lord on a sky bison. And she never knew it would be so completely amazing. So long, Kiriak.

9. Impossible [Kelly Clarkson]

Aang loved her. He'd said so, so many times. So many times that she could almost predict when he would say it now, and she was faintly sick of it.

She'd had such a great life, travelling with her friends. What had happened?

She was stuck here, in Ba Sing Se, fulfilling the 'duties' of the Avatar's girlfriend. She barely even got to bend anymore.

But Aang loved her, so that made everything fine, right? Wrong.

She thought of all she might have lost. Thought about how many times people had told her the life she wanted was impossible

And she decided she would achieve the impossible

Penning a quick note to Aang, she fled Ba Sing Se.

She was going to find Zuko, tell him what she'd known for so long. Forget Mai; forget whatever other inhibitions he had.

She loved him. And she was sick of denying it.

10. Redbird [Cadillac Sky]

They had known they would die together. It had been a given. From their wedding day, they had wanted to always be together.

They hadn't known they'd live so long though. The life of Fire Nation royalty was riddled with assassinations and other dangers. No-one expected to live ninety-five, or ninety-seven years.

And when they'd made it that far, they knew their time would be coming soon.

They were happy when they finally passed, together, in their sleep.

They, naturally, didn't know what to expect. The afterlife was one of mystery and intrigue. But what they got was amazing.

They first saw Aang, smiling at them,

"You taught me to let go. And for that I am grateful. Your love has been stronger any other. You are a testament to love. Only one other couple has ever had a love as strong as yours. Oma, and Shu. Because of your strong love, you get a gift. A gift no other couple has ever received.

You get a second life. Reincarnation. And in every reincarnation, you will find each other. Your love will never die."

They were shocked. It was such a gift, such a blessing.

"You'll live to love another day."
