Zuko
Finally, I was holding her...
Oh, for so long, I have waited for this moment, to hold her, to be with her, to kiss her... She looked up onto me, and I looked at her...
Two of my dreams were fulfilled; just the third was left...
I leaned down, and closed my eyes, I was so close, and she was an inch away, when I heard a scream...
I woke up, sat upright, and felt cold sweat roll down my back and chest. It was crack of dawn anyway, but my dream could've lasted a bit longer….I heard it again, that scream. I followed it to find something horrible, something that made my heart jump, two fire nation soldiers whipping a little girl that was tied tightly to a tree. They cracked the whip at her, and she screamed again.
"Hey you, yeah, you drunken idiots," I yelled at them, and all three heads turned to my direction, "What do you think you are doing to her? Do you have no respect?" While they where trying to find an explanation to tell me, I shot two orbs at them, big enough to knock them out. "Here." I untied to girl from the trees. She looked up to me, as if for me to see she had pale, green eyes, blind eyes.
"Thank you." She whispered, as I walked of back to the direction of my little camp.
Katara
"Hey! Aang! Sokka! Toph! Where the heck are you guys! I give up!" I yelled, we where playing manhunt all night, but it was becoming day, so there was no point, I haven't found them yet, I wouldn't find them now. "Guys! C'mon! I said I give up! Where are-"
"KATARA!" I heard a yell….But who's yell? "KATAARAAAA!" it yelled again, a young girl's voice, Toph's voice.
"Toph! Where are you!" I yelled playfully, not knowing I shouldn't have. I heard footsteps running towards me, and found Toph collapsing into my arms, crying. Have I ever seen Toph cry before? "Toph what happened to you?" I asked. Toph lifted her head, and, instead of seeing the young, vibrant earth bending master, I saw a beaten up little girl.
"It was horrible, Katara! It was Horrible!" she said through sobs, and then explained everything to me, all while I was healing her.
"It's alright Toph, you're alright now, that's all that matters." I comforted her.
"Yeah, if it wasn't for that guy, I'd be half dead by now" she laughed out.
"Wait, what guy?" I asked curiously. Well, she didn't tell me about that part.
"Oh, I don't know who he had a voice," she started, only for me to cut her off.
"Well of course he had a voice. Toph, what did it sound like?" I asked curiously
"I was just about to get there thank you very much. Well, you've heard the Fire nation's 'prince', right?" I nodded, I knew where this was going "Well, it sounded like his, but it couldn't have been him, he isn't that nice." She replied. Oh, but Toph, that's where you are wrong…
