Prologue A man was standing in the middle of a battlefield strewn with Fire Nation soldier corpses.

Seriousness in his blue azure eyes, left hand tightly holding his sword, breathing heavily, mud on his armor, he was watching his army slowly recovering, bandaging wounds, exhausted by the battle they won after a week of constant painful fights. Suddenly, rage appeared on his face and he shouted with a powerful voice:

"THE SOUTH CAMP HAS FALLEN!!!"

All his men stood up, filled up with courage, arms in the air, shouting in response to their chief.

Some of them were even crying, tears of joy streaming down their red-painted cheeks.

In the meantime at Ba Sing Se, city of walls

---------------------------------------

"I won!!! Here comes the money!"

Whoever not used to pass by the Xiao Long street would be astonished to see a blind little girl winning another gambling game and would take their chance against her, but for the accustomed, it was obvious that she was no adversary to deal with. Being born blind, she just learned how to see with other parts of the body, using her feet to sense the vibrations in the ground, making her see better than anybody. That was no big deal for the probably greatest earthbender that she was.

Her name was Toph Bei Fong.

"I can't believe it… Gambling again? I thought you promised him not to do it again!"

Toph : "Hi there Katara! Wanna join me?"

Katara : "Come on, show time is over everybody, go back home, nothing to see! And you, you're not gonna get away like that."

------

They were going home, walking through the over-populated streets of Ba Sing Se.

Katara : "So, why did you do that? I thought you gave up gambling after Sokka told you to stop."

Toph : " Hey, nobody tells me what to do, not even a lazy always complaining boomerang guy…"

She said that last part with a bit of melancholy in her voice.

Katara : " You've got a point…But you know he only said that because he didn't want you to have problems."

Toph : " Hmpf." was her only answer.

------

They arrived at home, a beautiful and luxurious mansion built away of the crowded districts, surrounded with gracious trees and no other noise than the birds singing happily.

Katara opened the door, and was surprised to see a letter lying on the ground.

Her heartbeats began to increase as she recognized the writing of her brother.

Toph : " What's wrong Katara? I can feel your heart beating quicker than before"

She answered with excitation, tears beginning to appear at the corner of her eyes.

Katara : "Toph! It's a letter from Sokka!"
