"Do we have to visit Azula?" asked a fairly scared Ty Lee.

"yes Ty of course we do"mentioned an extremely bored Mai. Zuko paced his study rapidly whilst pinching the bridge of his nose as if he was fighting off a headache.

Zuko legged it next door to Ty Lee's room "would you two stop arguing I thought I was supposed to be the angry, hot-headed, argumentative one. Were going and that's final."

"lighten up Zuko or do I have to call you Zuzu, we was just having a, civilised argument."

Toph burst into the room "no argument is civilised Mai I also know something you don't know."

"What?" ordered Mai.

"Come with me."said Toph.

They walked around the palace Mai getting dragged behind by Toph "where is the garden, a quiet, private garden." asked Toph.

"We'll go to the one on the left near the turtleducks."

"OK."replied Toph while punching Mai. Mai shot her a look as if to ask what that was for.

Toph realised even though blind and said "that's how I show affection." Mai rolled her eyes and thought typical.

When they reached the turtleduck pond they sat on the grass watching the turtleducks gracefully skimming across the water. Mai started fiddling with a knife and she got sudden butterflies in her stomach for no apparent reason yet she still had the mask* she always wore on. "you are pregnant." Mai almost shot up in the air "I'm what! Oh and by the way were going to visit crazy in an hour. Do you want to come."

"Yes sure is Zuko and Ty Lee OK with it." Mai shrugged not knowing what to say.

"I know I'll ask them" Toph answered to herself.

They both raced around the many paths and corridors of this extremely big palace probably knocking a few servants over on the way. They skidded to a halt when they reached Ty Lee's room.

"Zuko, Ty Lee, can I come visit crazy with you Mai has said its fine with her." Toph panted.

"Sure" Ty lee and Zuko chorused.

They all walked to the airship that would take them to the asylum.


*By mask I mean a plain face for those who didn't know.
