Yes, Zula is a real character. She is Prince Zuko's sister, and she was shown off in Fp. 12. This is a songfic dedicated to a new pairing, SokkaxZula. Flames are accepted, because I want to know if I did anything wrong. This is also my first songfic, written to the lyrics of Always by Blink 182.
I've been here, before, a few times,
And I'm quite, aware, we're dying,
And your hands, they shake, the goodbyes,
"Sokka! Wait! I need you…"
Sokka quit his pacing. His silhouette waved in the heat under a background of flames…
And I'll take, you back, if you have me...
Sokka turned and ran back to her…
So here, I am, I'm trying, So here, I am, are you ready?
He gripped her hands in his.
"I love you, Zula, no matter who gets in the way…"
'C'mon let me hold you, touch you, feel you, always,
Touch you, taste you, all night, always…
The wind whirled around the two, forcing the glittery sand beneath them to explode into the air along with the sparks of the flames.
Zula smiled and lowered her eyelids…
And I'll miss, your laugh, your smile,
I'll admit, I'm wrong, if you tell me…
Zula's amber eyes released silver-lined tears.
"I'm sorry I hurt like that, Sokka…I didn't know what I was doing….You need to be loved like you deserve…"
I'm so sick, of fights, I hate them,
Let's start this, again, for real…
"Then don't ever let go of me, Zula…" he whispered to her.
So here, I am, I'm trying, So here, I am, are you ready?
So here, I am, I'm trying…
So here I am, are you ready?
'C'mon let me hold you, touch you, feel you, always,
Kiss you, taste you, all night, always…
Sokka and Zula drew nearer to each other's faces…
I've been her, before, a few times,
And I'm quite, aware, we're dying…
They closed their eyes and held each other…
'C'mon let me hold you, touch you, feel you, always…
They locked each other in a seemingly endless kiss…
Kiss you, taste you…
Sokka wrapped his arms around her fragile waist while she rested hers on his shoulders…
All night…
Sokka's icy blue eyes focused into her warm gentle amber eyes…
'C'mon let me hold you, touch you, feel you, all night, always…
Kiss you, taste you, all night always…
Their hearts were overwhelmed with so much love it was hard to breathe…
Always…
Zula buried her face in Sokka's chest as he held her close…
Always…
They swore they would never let go…
"I love you Zula."
"I love you too…
Always...
Sokka could feel nothing else but affection. Everything else, the heat from the fire licking away at the village houses, the scorch marks on his arms, the smell of burnt flesh from those he had once loved, they all disappeared…
Always…
They walked together under a blood-stained sunset, swearing never to leave each other….
Thank you, and much love,
