I don't own ATLA or Halfway There by Big Time Rush or Fly by Nikki Minaj ft. Rihanna.

Katara's POV

I peeked through the curtain after Britney Spears' performance was over. I noticed Kuzon sitting next to my mom, Pakku, Gran Gran and dad in the front row. Toph's parents sat just behind them. I noticed Haru sitting next to Zuko. Haru spotted me and smiled at me. I frowned at him.

"... And next up is Azula Wang with her song-" the host stopped in mid sentence as a man ran onto stage and whispered in his ear. The host nodded and addressed the waiting crowd. Azula was still missing and no one had found her.

"Apparently Miss Wang cannot make it tonight so next onstage will be the band we've all be waiting for: Avatar!" the crowd cheered and some even stood up and shouted. I couldn't stop the smile from forming onto my face as we walked onto stage. Sokka sat onto his throne and picked up his drumsticks. Aang and Toph took their places. I grabbed the microphone and addressed the anticipating crowd.

"How's everybody doing tonight?" I asked. The crowd cheered again. I smiled.

"We will be performing our new song, Fly."

Katara: I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to fight, to prosper, to rise
to fly
to fly

Toph:I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away

Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just surmising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

Katara: I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to fight, to prosper, to rise
to fly
to fly

Toph: Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating every time it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I ain't got no motherfucking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
But when you go hard your nay's become yay's
Yankee Stadium with Jay's and Kanye's

Katara: I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to fight, to prosper, to survive
to fly
To fly

Toph: Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Both: I came to win

Katara: to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to fight, to prosper, to rise
to fly
to fly

As soon as the last note ended, the crowd burst into applause. I took a deep breath before taking a bow, along with the rest of the band. I sneaked a glance at the judges, one of them being Suki's uncle. They whispered with each other for a few seconds before scribbling something on a piece of paper. All the other contestants came on stage.

The host took an envelope and ripped it open. "The finalists are," he paused dramatically. The crowd was dead silent as we all waited for the results. I grabbed Aang's hands. Aang's squeezed my hand as if to say, Don't worry.

"Linkin Park, Beyonce, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Meng, Onji and Hide, Avatar and Mr. ... Foofocuddlypoops? These are our finalists, please give them a hand." We're one of the finalists! Aang looked so happy. Sokka screamed, managing to attack us in a gigantic group hug. Maybe we actually could win.

"It's time for the interval so please use the time wisely and vote for one of the final eight."

We walked off of the stage. I grinned and grabbed a Coke off of a nearby snack table. Aang walked up towards me.

"Well, lookie here. The girl who usually suffers from stageaphobea (stage fright) is actually calm!" he joked, trying not to laugh. I rolled my eyes and swatted his arm with my jacket.

"Shut up."

"Okay, okay. Sorry. You did a great job tonight, by the way."

"Thanks. Um, Aang..," I began. A familiar voice interrupted me.

"Hey Aang, Katara," Kuzon said from behind me, "We need to show you guys something." I turned to see Kuzon, Zuko and Suki. Aang nodded.

"Yea, sure. I'll go get Sokka and Toph." And with that he ran off. What could Kuzon be hiding?

A body.

I sighed in frustration. Not now, Reina.

Someone's uptight...

That's because I want us to win! I mean, if we don't then this whole thing was for nothing. We would have let Aang down...

Aang loves you guys, he'll understand even if the crowd booed you guys and demanded that you shouldn't perform ever again.

You're helpful. (Note my sarcasm)

Thanks! Here comes the Avatar himself.

"What now?" Toph asked, irritated, "I was about to beat the living shit out of Sokka during our wrestling contest!"

"This is more important, Toph."

The group walked away from the dressing rooms and such until they came to a door that was labelled, broom closet.

Zuko opened the door to reveal his sister, tied with rope and duct tape stuck on her mouth. Her eyes were closed, and she didn't show any signs of life. I felt a shiver run through my body as I realised this. Reina was right...

"How did you find her?" Aang asked, bringing me back to reality. Zuko chuckled nervously.

"Well, on my way home this morning, I found her in an alley. There was a bit of a fight and then I knocked her unconscious. Later on, she woke up in her bedroom and I guess she committed suicide because when I walked in wondering what was going on; her room was engulfed in blue flames. I found her dead body in my boot, a few minutes ago." Whoa, the girl is insane.

Everyone seemed shocked. "So..." Toph started. I didn't know what to say... no one did.

"Ladies and gentlemen," the speaker boomed above us, "Boys and girls may I have your undivided attention please. The judges have finished voting. We ask the finalists to please come to the stage."

That thankfully gave us a chance to ditch the awkwardness. Zuko stuffed his sister in a huge duffel bag before running off. We quickly hurried to our respective spots. Suki's uncle got came onto the stage. He cleared his throat.

"First of all I would like to thank everyone for coming tonight..." I didn't hear the rest of his speech. The audience was buzzing with excitement. I felt very nervous.

What if we lost? What then?

We've been over this, Katara. You. Won't. Lose.

Not now, Reina!

"... And with great pleasure I would like to announce the winner of this year's Kyoshi Summer Music Festival!"

Sokka, Toph, Aang and I all held hands. Everyone watched as he opened the envelope...

"And the winner is..."

I couldn't believe it. I felt like crying. This must be a dream. Aang, Toph, Sokka and I all let go and proudly walked up to Suki's uncle. A woman in a formal red dress came up to us and handed Aang a huge trophy. Aang grinned, showing all of his teeth. I watched as he held the trophy above his head.

The audience jumped to its feet, screaming and shouting. People chanted our band's name. Someone even began foaming. He looked a lot like the guy who stole our tickets last year. Sokka noticed too, and glared at him. I giggled at him. Suki's uncle handed us a cheque for eight million dollars, and his card.

"WHOO HOO! AVATAR RULES!" Kuzon shouted, jumping on top of his chair. We all laughed at his goofyness.

Sadly, every good thing must come to an end.

A Five Star Hotel
A few months later
1.30 p.m.
Normal POV

During their world tour, the band was currently staying in a hotel whilst they were in Australia.

"You know, this has been an amazing year for us," Aang said as he sat down next to his girlfriend. He set down two wine glasses and filled them with wine.

"Yeah, it has been," Katara noticed the liquor that her boyfriend held. "Aang, we aren't eighteen yet."

"Yeah, I know. But I did some research and in the Avatar World, both our nations say that once you turn sixteen, you're old enough to drink. And, no one has to know about this," he said with a mischievous smile, "What do you say?"

Katara took her glass, "Well, I guess a bit won't hurt."

"That's the spirit!" Aang grinned. The airbender raised his glass, "I'd like to make a toast to music!"

Katara laughed. "Music?"

Aang nodded. "That's the very thing that brought us here, and since it's been such an awesome year we should celebrate. To a brighter future." Katara smiled.

"Cheers!"

"Cheers! I love you, Katara," Aang said, planting a kiss on the waterbender's lips. She kissed him back. "I love you too," Katara whispered against his lips. When the need of air became too urgent, they pulled away.

"You know, it's funny. Music has really changed our lives," Katara said. Aang smirked.

"Tell me something I don't know." Katara thought for a moment.

"Oh! Did you know that our trophy used to belong to the very first Earth King? When filled with Spirit Water, it could give anyone who drank from it eternal life and ultimate power." Aang's eyes widened. So that's why Azula joined the contest.

"No, I didn't know that. Where did you get that from?"

"Let's just say that Godfrey should really put a lock for his library." The both laughed.

"Tell me something else I don't know."

"Okay. Meng planted a camera on you."

Aang shrugged. "I know that."

"So you probably know that she stole one of your boxers."

"HUH?"

"Nothing!"

Ah, yes. Things had turned out for the best. Avatar released its very first album named: Halfway There, which sold billions of copies.

The teens became successful musicians and were popular in almost every country. Aang was one of the greatest Avatar's that ever lived and Katara became his wife. The couple bore many... ahem... many children in their lifetime. Basically, there was hope for the Air Nomads.

Toph and Kuzon had their children first then got married. Sokka and Suki were happily married with three girls and one boy. Now, what happened to Haru? He turned himself in, the moment he returned to New York. Later on, he and Ty Lee got together.

I would say things turned out for the best, wouldn't you?

Aang: *walks into the room and sees Zuko* ZUKO! I'm the narrator, not you!

Zuko: Well, I do it way better than you so buzz off!

Aang:*mutters to himself and storms out of the room*

Zuko: So, things turned out great for everyone. I was crowned the new Fire Lord of the Fire Nation. Mai married me and, unlike the rest of the gang, had one son. It's been one heck of a year, huh?

Now there are only two more things I have to say, before this story comes to a close. They are:

The End.


So, that's it, then. The end of my very first ATLA story. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
