Free my Wings
AN: I do not own anything of Avatar: the Last Airbender. It is copywrited to Nickelodeon and it's respected creators
I could feel it in the ground. My earth bending skills have improved greatly as I have reached a level higher than master in my point of view. Thanks to the others who I have been traveling with, I have learned in the years how to be able to feel vibrations on whatever earth stood on. I could identify to where something was in the water if I stood on land or the beach whether it was a fish, a boat, or when a large wave was coming. I've learned to feel how the air flows and swirls around me and if something is flowing in it or against it. And with water, the water was a bit easier to tell since it's close to earth, but yet I can do the same thing I do to air to water. Being blind wasn't so bad if my senses have sharpened so greatly. Just being able to stand there on the edge and feel the vibrations that were sent through the air and the water and more through the earth and honing in specifically on something. I wouldn't say I was higher than the avatar, since he knows how to bend all four elements, but I was pretty damn close to it. People have long since then come to envy my skills and abilities in not just earth bending, but being able to sense things higher than what a person could view with their eyes.
But I envied the rest of the world for their view of the colorful world. I could only see tangible objects through the vibrations of whatever it was or through what vibrations I sent out. And I have too much pride to go up and touch a person's face or wander around with some stick just to get a better idea of anything.
But... there was something I wished to know. How his face looked. When he laughed, did he have those warm rosy cheeks people would say they'd get from being merry? What does color look like? What is this color of the clothes he wore? What is the color of things he likes? All I heard was one time somebody said he had grey eyes. The only real thing I can imagine is in dark, bright, and this midtone... Is that what grey is? If it is... at least I'm happy that I can imagine that.
AN:
Toph doesn't really like to admit in my story, but like how Aang taught her to feel the air and she began to use that, she learned how to feel what's in the water through Katara. Also this is the prologue, I just never have the urge to title my chapters XP
