When I said I use numbers in digit form when they are meaning a number of something I meant outside of the lyrics and age and sorry I forgot to mention the stage but I will now. The stage has 1 pair of wooden, winding steps on each side of the stage and a wooden pathway connecting it together with a railing. Underneath it is a big pit of fake fire.
He was here! He stood a couple feet behind her watching her literally like a predator watching his prey. He was wearing dark red pants and a dark red robe with a black shirt underneath and a golden belt was tied around his waist. On his feet were boots and he wore the same mask that he always wore. He also wore his black cape. Katara only looked at him. He began to sing quiet on the first part of the singing and then he got louder.
You have come here
In pursuit of you deepest urge
In pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent
Silent
I have brought you
That our passions may fuse and merge
In your mind you've already succumbed to me
Dropped all defenses
Completely succumbed to me
Now you are here with me
No second thoughts
You've decided
Decided
Katara slowly took a step towards him as he continued to sing
Past the point of no return
No backward glances
Our games of make believe are at an end
He walked around her, circling her all around
Past all thought of if or when
No use resisting
Abandon thought and let the dream descend
Katara only stared at him
What raging fire shall flood the soul
When he said the word fire, he flashed as quick as lightning behind her and grabbed her neck carefully but made it look like it wasn't. Katara closed her eyes to emphasis this and Aang flinched while Zuko slightly smiled as he kept singing
What rich desire unlocks its door
What sweet seduction lies before us
Zuko let go of her neck and held her hand, kissed it and stroked it. He began to walk backwards from the middle of the stage with her hand in his. Katara only followed him allowing her hand to stay in his while he sang
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
What warm unspoken secrets will we learn
Beyond the point of no return
Katara still frightful, began to sing her part now
You have brought me
To that moment when words run dry
To that moment where speech disappears into silence
Silence
I have come here
Hardly knowing the reason why
In my mind I've already imagined
Our bodies entwining
Defenseless and silent
Now I am here with you
No second thoughts
I've decided
Decided
Zuko stood still and even though he knew this, he thought that he must have taught Katara better than he thought because she sounded more beautiful than ever despite the fact that she was so nervous. Katara continued to sing
Past the point of no return
No going back no
Our passion play has now at last begun
As Katara began to walk towards her set of stairs on the left, Zuko began walking to his steps on the right in timing with Katara and they both began to walk up their pair of stairs at the same time while Katara sang
Past all thought of right or wrong
One final question
They both stopped at the middle of the staircase as Katara kept singing
How long should we two wait before we're one
They continued walking up until they got to the top
When will the blood begin to race
The sleeping bud burst into bloom
When will the flames at last consume us
As soon as Katara finished her part, Zuko whipped of his, cloak, hung it aside, and they began to sing in a duet while they walked closer to each other
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
Before the next line, Zuko had grabbed Katara's waist with both of his hands while Katara put her hands on his shoulders. They were so close that their foreheads where touching. Then Zuko grabbed her hand and spun her around. Katara spun into him, her back on his chest, her head flung back over her right shoulder. Zuko moved his head near her left shoulder so the audience could see him. They continued to sing in a duet
The bridge is crossed so stand and watch it burn
We've passed the point of no return
Zuko held her hands in his and moved them around her stomach and then trailed them up to her neck and put them just above her breasts.
Aang only watched with curiosity and possible jealousy. The whole opera house was quiet except for the music which still played softly in the background. Then Zuko sang a familiar tune while admiring Katara.
Say you'll share with me one love one lifetime
Lead me save me from thy solitude
Say you want me with you here beside you
Katara slowly opened her eyes and Zuko trailed his hands to her hand and held it in a soft, gentle, grip as he sang
Anywhere you go let me go too
Katara realized what she had to do. She gave Zuko a small sad smile and put her other hand on his cheek
Katara that's all I ask of
But before he could finish the last word, Katara ripped off his mask. While the right side of Zuko's face was beautiful the left side was worse than death itself. It was burnt to a permanent brown burn but his right eye was half closed due to the fact that there was a dark red, circular part of the scar all around his eye. His eyes were golden though a particularly strange color that nobody had ever seen before.
Nonetheless, everyone was frightened. Screams and yells of terror were heard and people were flinching from the disgusting site. Zuko looked at Katara with hurt, betrayal, sadness, and most of all anger in his face. Katara only looked back at him with fear and sorrow. Zuko quickly looked around and noticed the guards but he had another idea. Above them was a long, vine-like, rope which led to a row where surprisingly nobody was sitting and there was a trap door and that gave Zuko an idea.
In 1 swift move, Zuko grabbed Katara's waist pulling her to him harshly and grabbed the rope, then with his strength, he pushed against the wall and swung from the middle of the stage to the top row of seats then with as much of the fire that he had, he created a giant fireball and shot it at the rope that the chandelier was hanging from. Then, in a flash, he had disappeared through the trap door with Katara.
As the chandelier came falling down, Aang jumped from Box 5, took out his staff, and tried to airbend parts of the chandelier away from everybody but it was no use. People screamed and ran for their lives. Some made it out, some did not. The chandelier crashed to the ground and glass sprayed everywhere. People were stuck with glass in their body or the chandelier crushing the life out of them. Then the fire started, which only made things worse.
As Azula was running away, she noticed a body that looked familiar. She ran over to it and was devastated to find that it was Jet's body. His face was burnt everywhere and there was a huge scar on his chest from when Zuko killed him. Azula instantly fell to the ground and began to weep.
"JET! NO PLEASE DON'T DIE! I NEED YOU!" she cried
And she continued to cry, not caring that she could die at any minute until Sokka and Haru came up and dragged her away from the corpse. As they did, Haru just looked around in shock.
"Oh my god, we're ruined Sokka. Ruined!" Haru yelled
"Forget about that you fool. My sister is in trouble!" Sokka yelled back
Then Toph and Mai came running up! Sokka ran over to Toph and crushed her to him in a tight but loving embrace while Toph hugged back and kissed his cheek. Together, Mai, Toph, Sokka, Haru, and Azula ran and met up with Aang where he ran alongside Mai while the others ran behind them.
"Mai, where did he take her?" he demanded
"Come with me Avatar, I will take you to her but remember keep your hand at the level of your eyes." she warned
"I'll come with you!" Toph added as she ran up behind them.
"No Toph! Stay here! Come with me Avatar! Do as I say!" Mai continued as she and Aang ran to the room with the mirror that Zuko had hypnotized from the beginning.
Unfortunately for Toph, people came with weapons and their bending powers. Sokka, Haru, and even Azula were going to try to find Zuko along with the others and kill him.
"NO!" Toph screamed
She tried to warn everyone that this wasn't their fight and they would get hurt but it was too late.
