Hey everyone! This is SapphireSeibrem! I'm here with another stupid story that I made up within 10 minutes from listening to one of my CD's! . Please don't hit me for this! Dodges flying rotten food I love Phantom of the Opera and I love Avatar, so hey! It's a good combination! XD this is seriously changed, including the songs, so don't kill me! I don't own anything! By the way, this is a while later, Katara is 21, Zuko is 23, as is Sokka, and Aang is 19, Zuko has given up chasing the Avatar, the war is over, and… more or less, Zuko has joined up the others, and him and Katara are finding themselves falling in love, but Aang disappeared almost 3 years ago, presumably dead, and Katara has been attending mysterious 'sessions' to learn how to sing. I told you this was made up in 10 minutes!
On with the fic!
(Our first scene starts as Katara sits at the edge of a river, singing to herself)
Sokka: (rubbing his eyes) Katara… are you singing again? Since when can you carry a tune?
Katara: (annoyed look from the previous comment) I'm not really sure… I've been having lessons from this person, who is always hiding in the shadows. He sounds familiar, but I can't place the voice… and he's never shown me his face…
Sokka: well, Zuko's worried about you, so don't stay out here all night.
Katara: alright… (after Sokka walks off, she starts singing softly again) you were once, my one companion. You were all that mattered… You were once a friend and sidekick, then my world was shattered. Wishing you were somehow here again. Wishing you were somehow near… sometimes it seems, if I just dream, somehow you would be here… Wishing I could hear your voice again… (All of a sudden she stops, trying not to cry) Oh Aang… where are you? I know you're not dead! I wish I could find you again!
Zuko: Katara? Are you alright? (hugs her as she starts crying)
Katara: Zuko, I wish I knew where Aang was…
Zuko: shhh… it's okay, we'll find him someday…
Katara: I guess your right… (sniffles)
Zuko: I'm going to sleep, please go to bed at a normal hour…
Katara: I'll be there in about 30 minutes, okay?
Zuko: (nods and walks off)
(All of a sudden, there is a rustle in the trees nearby and Katara smiles)
Katara: teacher, I've been waiting!
Man in the shadows: (hardly acknowledging Katara) Insolent boy, this fire bender, interrupting your singing… Ignorant fool, this brave young suitor… Sharing in my triumph.
Katara: Spirit, I'm here. You speak, I listen. Stay by my side, guide me. Spirit, my soul was weak, forgive me. Enter at last, Master…
Man in the shadows: Silly girl, you know better then that. See why in shadow I hide, look yourself in the river, I am there beside…
Katara: Spirit of music, my wise guardian. Teach to me your voice's glory.
Man in the shadows: I am your spirit of music… Come to the spirit of music…
Sokka: Whose voice is that! Who's there with you Katara?
Man in the shadows: I am your spirit of music… Come to the spirit of music…
Zuko: Katara! Angel!
Katara: In sleep he sang to me. In dreams he came… The voice which summons me, and speaks my name… And do I dream again? For now I find… the spirit of my music, he is here, inside my mind.
Man in the shadows: Sing once again with me, a strange duet. My power over you, grows stronger yet…
Okay, I'm stopping there for now, yes, I know this sucks, but hey, I need something to do, so, hey! (shrugs) if you actually liked it, review! Flame, criticize, compliment, whatever! This is SapphireSeibrem! Love, Peace, and Ramen!
Zuko: at least you didn't make me the phantom… --'''
Sokka: press the pretty button and review pwetty pwease?
