Chapter 25: The Party part 2

Zuko took a deep breath as the introduction started playing.

Zuko:

Once in a lifetime

Means there's no second chance

So I believe that you and me

Should grab it while we can

Mai:

Make it last forever

And never give it back

Zuko looked around, confused. He didn't recognize the voice, but it sounded familiar.

Zuko:

It's our turn, and I'm lovin' where we're at

Zuko and Mai:

Because this moment's really all we have

Mai started walking toward the stage, smiling. Zuko was still a little puzzled.

Zuko:

Everyday

Of our lives,

Mai:

Wanna find you there, wanna hold on tight

Zuko:

Gonna run

Zuko and Mai:

While we're young

And keep the faith

Zuko noticed that Mai was wearing the engagement bracelet he got her. He smiled and put the pieces together.

Zuko:

Everyday

Zuko and Mai:

From right now,

Gonna use our voices and scream out loud

Mai:

Take my hand

Mai extended her hand allowing Zuko to take it.

Zuko:

Together we

Will celebrate,

Mai:

Celebrate.

Zuko and Mai:

Oh, ev'ryday.

Mai and Zuko smiled at each other and hugged. Their friends cheered for them as Mai and Zuko headed up onstage and continued singing.

Mai:

They say that you should follow

Zuko:

And chase down what you dream,

Mai:

But if you get lost and lose yourself

Zuko:

What does it really mean?

Mai:

Ohh,

no matter where we're going,

Zuko:

Ooh, yeah

It starts from where we are.

Mai:

There's more to life when we listen

Both:

to our hearts

And because of you, I've got the strength to start

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Everyday

Of our lives,

Mai:

Wanna find you there, wanna hold on tight

Both:

Gonna run

While we're young

And keep the faith.

Oh Everyday

From right now,

Gonna use our voices and scream out loud

Take my hand,

Together we

Will celebrate,

Mai:

Oh, ev'ryday

Zuko:

We're taking it back,

We're doing it here

Together!

Mai:

It's better like that,

And stronger now

Than ever!

Zuko:

We're not gonna lose.

Both:

'Cause we get to choose.

That's how it's gonna be!

Zuko:

Everyday

Of our lives,

Mai:

Wanna find you there, wanna hold on tight.

Zuko:

Gonna run

While we're young

Both:

And keep the faith

Keep the faith!

All:

Everyday

Of our lives,

Wanna find you there, wanna hold on tight.

Gonna run (gonna run)

While we're young

And keep the faith

Zuko and Mai looked at their friends in mild surprise when they joined in the singing. Mai went left to the stage and pulled Aang onstage. Zuko went to the right and offered his hand to Katara, who took it. Everyone got into a big circle holding hands and singing.

Whoa yeah yeah

Everyday (everyday)

From right now, (from right now)

Gonna use our voices and scream out loud

Take my hand; (take my hand)

Together we

Will celebrate,

Ev'ryday!

Everyone stood in a line. One by one, they raised their linked hands.

Zuko:

Ev'ryday

Yeah

Everyone cheered and applauded. Zuko and Mai turned to face each other.

"Mai...does this mean...?" Zuko asked.

Mai smiled. "Yes. Yes, I'll marry you. I'm sorry I took so long."

Zuko laughed. "It's fine." They hugged again.

"All right! The gang's all together now!" Sokka exclaimed. "Now it's time for one last song!"

Upbeat music started playing. The teens started cheering and dancing.

All:

Together, together, together everyone

Together, together, come on lets have some fun

Together, were there for each other every time

Together together, come on lets do this right

Zuko:

Here and now its time for celebration

I finally figured it out (yeah yeah)

That all our dreams have no limitations

That's what its all about

Mai:

Everyone is special in their own way

We make each other strong

Ty Lee and Toph:

Each other strong

Mai:

Were not the same

Were different in a good way

Together's where we belong

All:

We're all in this together

We're all stars

And we see that

Together, together, together everyone

Together, together, come on lets have some fun

Aang:

Katara:

And we take it

Benders sing along

Yeah, you really got it goin' on

Benders in the house

Everybody say it now

Benders everywhere

Wave your hands up in the air

That's the way we do it

Lets get to it

Time to show the world

Zuko and Mai, Katara and Aang, Sokka and Suki, and Haru and Ty Lee took turns dancing center stage during the instrumental part of the song. Then Zuko and Aang took center stage.

We're all in this together

Once we know

That we are

We're all stars

And we see that

We're all in this together

And it shows

When we stand

Hand in hand

Make our dreams come true

Katara and Toph joined the boys. The four benders were standing in a line according to the Avatar cycle: Aang, the airbender; Katara, the waterbender; Toph, the earthnbender; and Zuko, the firebender.

We're all in this together

When we reach

We can fly

Know inside

We can make it

We're all in this together

Once we see

There's a chance

That we have

And we take it

Benders everywhere

Wave your hands up in the air

That's the way we do it

Let's get to it

Come on everyone!

Everyone struck bending poses as the audience cheered and applauded.

Ok, the last chapter is going to be a songfic, but I can't decide which song to use. My choices are "Cherish The Moment" by the Cheetah Girls, "Now And Then" by Susannah Hoffs, and "These Days" by Chantal Kreviazuk.
