It Ends Tonight
He couldn't understand her. He didn't understand her at all. Half the time she was angry at him and fighting him, throwing waves and water at him. The other half she was looking oddly at him, almost dreamily. Of course, he was just as confused about his feelings for her.
Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can't explain myself at all
And all that wants
And all that needs
All I don't want to need at all
They were enemies, even though they now traveled together. They hated each other. She was a waterbending peasant; he was the banished fire prince. But yet half his brain was screaming that he was being ignorant of the feelings he had for her. What feelings? He certainly didn't have any feelings for her. And if he did, it would never work out. He should banish those feelings from his mind and harden his heart. He had to end it. He couldn't do this. She was tearing him apart.
The walls start breathing
My minds unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow
They were at opposite ends again. She was yelling at him for being a stubborn, arrogant, spoiled prince. He had yelled back angrily that she was annoying, a brat, and a peasant. They didn't notice the water tribe boy looking on with amusement or the Avatar looking on confused and concerned. They only noticed each other, with hate in their eyes, confusion and other feelings in their hearts.
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight
It ends tonight
Oh how he hated her. He had no idea why he had joined the Avatar's group, though he remembered it had seemed like a good idea at the time. Ridiculous. He couldn't stand to be around her. He lobbed a fire ball at her.
A falling star
Least I fall alone
I can't explain what you can't explain
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain
Oh, so now it had turned to real physical fighting, she thought angrily. Well, if he was going to do that, so would she. She bended some water from the stream nearby and threw a wave at him. Serves him right, she thought, ignoring the pain she felt when it went through his defenses and knocked him to the ground. She couldn't stand him; he was so high and mighty with his pride and his nose stuck up in the air, thinking he was better than everyone else.
The walls start breathing
My minds unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow
They both fired their strongest attack at each other, too angry for words. The attacks hit each other and bounded back at them, knocking both of the teens down. For a second there was concern and pain for the other in both of their eyes. Gold met blue and they were soon on their feet again, throwing insults at each other yet again.
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight
He looked at her with disgust. His patience was wearing thin and pretty soon he knew he would explode. He was better off without her, anyway. He started walking away, swearing to not return. He ignored the little pinning in his heart for her and walked angrily into the woods.
Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side
It's my fault when you're blind
Its better that I see it through your eyes
She smirked. He would be back, she knew he would. He couldn't survive on his own, even though he tried to and refused help from everyone. A part of her was hurting, worrying that he was serious this time that he wouldn't come back. A bigger part of her was saying, who needs him anyway?
All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know
The Avatar looked at both of them, worried and concerned. He watched Zuko run off angrily into the woods and Katara watch him go. It was too bad that the hate part of their hearts were winning, he thought, because they had more in common than they thought.
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight
He sighed. "Why can't they just admit they like each other already?" he moaned to Sokka, Katara not being within hearing distance and Zuko off in the forest. "I know!" Sokka muttered, "As much as I hate seeing my sister with him, it would solve so many of our problems if they stopped fighting already. I can't get any sleep around here!" Sokka turned over, trying to sleep and Aang sighed again. It was too late now, but tomorrow he was going to make a plan to get them to admit it, even if he got hurt in the process, so long as it gave him peace and quiet already.
When darkness turns to light
