PLEASE READ:
Note: I had many issues saving this, in fact it took me over 3 hours of work time after finishing this video to get it to save properly, and I had to make some changes I didn't like, but in all it's still good.
This is based on a fanfic I read. In it Ty Lee discovers she's an airbender. Meanwhile, Oazi has a conflict with Azula over her lying about the avatar and such. He tries to punish Azula, but they get in a fight which Azula wins. She then (without the majority of people knowing) takes over as head of the firenation . Ty Lee feels scared of her new found power, so she goes to find somewhere to be alone and winds up at the jail where she meets the Mechanist who talks to her about flight and how wonderful it really is. Then as she leaves, Azula approaches her and sends her on a mission to the home of someone who had quit the FN army years ago. Ty Lee arrives to the house to find that it's the home of Swordmaster Piandao and that Iroh is there. After talking to Iroh Ty Lee decides to go to the western air temple and join the gAang. Before she leaves Azula approaches Ty Lee to have a conversation about her future role of power, but it turns into a fight(verbal). Mai sees this and after Azula walks off goes to tell Ty Lee that she shouldn't have done that and the two start to fight. Their fight turns into a kind conversation in which Ty Lee tells Mai everything that's happened and tells her her plans to go to the western air temple and asks her to join her. Mai replies she can't and they say goodbye. Azula has figured out Ty Lee's plan and tries to stop her, but Mai helps her friend escape. Thank you to anyone who actually read all the way though that, here have a virtual cookie ^^
Song: Defying Gravity by the original Broadway cast (Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel) Show: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Characters-
Ty Lee as Elphaba Mai as Glinda Azula/Oazi as the wizard Dai Li/ FN citizens as citizens of Oz
There's more!
Lyrics (with how it is in this video)
Glinda:
Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for once,
instead of flying off the handle!
(Mai coming up to Ty Lee about her fight with Azula)

I hope you're happy
I hope you're happy now
I hope you're happy how you
Hurt your cause forever
I hope you think you're clever
(Telling her what she did was stupid)

Elphaba:
I hope you're happy
I hope you're happy too
I hope you're proud how you
Would grovel in submission
To feed your own ambition
(Defending what she did and calling Mai a suck up)
Both:
So though I can't imagine how
I hope you're happy right now...

Glinda:
Elphie, listen to me - just say you're sorry...

You can still be with the wizard
What you've worked and waited for
You can have all you ever wanted...
(She feels everything will be normal if Ty Lee apologizes to Azula. Also she still thinks Oazi is the firelord and is saying that is Ty Lee remains one of Oazi's angles she can have whatever she wants)
Elphaba:
I know...But I don't want it - NO - I can't want it
anymore...
(Ty Lee knows things will never be the same, and that she doesn't want them to be, nor should they be the same)
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
(How she changed)
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
(Someone else meaning Azula, who was always so bossy)
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap
It's time to try
Defying gravity
(Working on really flying)
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down...
(Saying Mai can't stop her)

Glinda:
Can't I make you understand, you're having delusions of grandeur...?
(Mai's saying Ty Lee's being unrealistic) (grandeur--noun
-the quality or state of being impressive or awesome
-the quality or state of being lofty or elevated in conception or treatment
-the quality or state of being exalted in some deliberate way
-an instance of something that is grand)
Elphaba:
I'm through accepting limits
'Cuz someone says they're so
(Someone= Azula)(Azula keeps telling her she can't do things)
Some things I cannot change
But 'till I try, I'll never know
(She knows she can't do everything but wants to see what she can do)
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love - I guess I have lost
Well, if that's love
(Love is referring to her friendship with Azula. Meant as the friend kind of love, don't think of it as a shipping (unless you want to, then you can))
It comes at much too high a cost
(the friendship isn't worth it)
(The rest won't fit. it you want to know, message me and I'll send you the rest of the explanation.)
I DO NOT OWN AVATAR OR THE SONG. Duh. The two screenshots used are from avatarspirit.
YES, I know Avatar isn't really anime. No discussing it in comments. That's just annoying.

  • lol the roles should be reversed: Mai as elphie and Ty Lee as glinda :)

  • Oh, I have no idea, but it does sound interesting

  • @Arella0407 Sorry, what I mean is what is the fanfic this is based on? What is the story called? :^)

  • @shadowcatbrat918 Its a website where people who want to write their own twist of anything; books, cartoons, comics, movies, excetera, and post it online. Basically its a website for young authors

  • I LOVE WICKED AND AVATAR

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

  • Wow this really cool my favorite song and my favorite show

    

  • @lilbenderbabe She did that because she finally felt that she was enough of a separate person person in and of her self. Joining the circus and being different from all her sisters was because she was insecure. When she joins the Kyoshi warriors it's because she's gotten over that. She no longer fears not being her own person.

  • @TheFirebender95 Oh sorry I meant to ask what fanfiction it was? :^)

  • @shadowcatbrat918 the tv show is Avatar:The Last airbender and ther music is based of the musical Wicked
