"I knight you Prince Sokka of the water tribe." He placed the sword on his left, then right shoulder, then on his head. He turned to Katara, "Katara, I knight you Princess of the water tribe." And done the same to Katara as to Sokka.
Chapter 2: Lake Oasis and midnight talks.
"If you wish to receive sight, come to the lake oasis." The mysterious women said, a white curl popping out of the cloak.
Sokka perked up to this, thinking that it might be Yue. It has been known that Spirits came to the Earthly world, but for them to help someone in the process that was a different story. He turned to Toph, waiting her decision.
"I think we should go. My whole life, I always wanted to see. To see colours, your faces and even my face." Toph said softly. Toph searched for Sokka's hand, and got up.
They made their way down to the Lake oasis.
"Toph, are you sure of this? You may not be able to go back, and you may not be able to earth bend as good as you where blind." Katara said.
"It's ok; I can just close my eyes and pretend I'm blind." Toph went down some steps cautiously.
"I am really glad you are doing this though, I just hope it doesn't change how you fight. Because you're really good at it." Katara commented.
Toph crawled behind Sokka in the hole, but stopped half way through it.
"What's wrong?" Sokka asked.
"Nothing lets just keep going" Toph exited the hole, and found herself on land.
"Wow, it's really warm here. There's earth here!" Toph said, falling down onto the earth. "I think I might stay here more often!"
"I see you have come. Princess Katara, can you water bend some water onto Toph's eyes?" The mysterious women asked.
Katara did this, as her hands glowed, the mystery women chanted,
"The spirits above, heed my word.
Once blind, no more.
Take my sight, and my eyes.
To blind, no more.
For to see, is to believe." (A/N: I know, I know it didn't rhyme, but it was all I could think of.)
The mysterious women took off her hood, revealing Princess Yue.
"Princess Yue!" Sokka yelled.
"Shh!" Aang hushed, and turned his attention back to Princess Yue.
Katara removed her hands, letting the Lake's water sink into Toph's face. Princess Yue's eyes faded in colour. Toph blinked twice, taking in the surroundings. She saw all sorts of colours, blue, white, red, green, yellow, and some black.
She looked around, looking at Princess Yue who smiled and vanished.
"So…" Aang started, wondering if they done all that for nothing.
Toph looked at her hands. She smiled as a tear of joy slipped down her face.
"I… I can see." Toph said silently. "I can see!" Toph said again, louder for her friends to hear.
Katara smiled, and ran up to hug Toph. Aang and Sokka ran up as well and started hugging her too.
As she looked at Sokka, she smiled, and told him, "You're really handsome."
Sokka blushed and whispered a "thanks" as he scratched the back of his neck.
"Let's go I wanna explore and learn about all these colours and stuff." Toph ran off and climbed into the hole.
"Hold on Toph, as much as we want you to do everything you want. We should really be getting some rest, it's very dark." Katara said.
"Fine, mum." Toph pouted.
They went to the room they where staying in. And found only 2 beds.
"Oh dear, looks like some people have to share beds, or some will have to sit on the floor." Katara said.
"I volunteer… Snoozles sleeps on the ground." Toph said, pointing to Sokka.
"What? HEY!" Sokka complained.
"Well, you guys did get to sleep in, so I guess Katara and I get the beds." Aang stated.
Sokka poked his tongue at Toph.
"Here is a quilt. This was the last one they had so you guys will have to sleep together." Aang smirked.
Toph groaned as she snatched the quilt and lied on the ground. Sokka lied down next to her, and stared at the ceiling.
Toph waited to hear a soft snoring until she got up and looked out the window. She got a chair and sat on it.
"What you thinking about?" Sokka said, sitting up from the bed on the ground.
Toph turned around, and then looked back to the sky. "Just wondering what those things are." She said pointing to the stars.
"Those are stars; they come out in the night, but disappear in the day." Sokka said, standing next to her.
"They are very pretty. So who was it again that you where going to marry?" Toph asked, hoping that she was the one he was going to ask.
"Uh… I can't tell you." Sokka said, covering up his nervousness.
"Why not?" Toph curiously asked.
"Because I want it to be a surprise, I am sure that when they find out they will be shocked." Sokka said.
"Please tell me." Toph begged.
"Only if you tell me something, big like…" Sokka stopped to think, "if you where to marry someone who would it be?"
Toph punched his arm, "Nice try Snoozles, but you're not getting that outta me"
Sokka rubbed his arm, "It was worth a shot."
Toph laughed. "Well I'm getting tired" She yawned. See you in the morning. She got up from the chair she was on and walked away to the quilt on the ground.
Before she lied down, she remembered something that had been missing.
"Wait, where's Zuzu?" Toph asked a bit worried.
There you are, the end of that chapter. WHAT DO YOU THINK?! Reviewers get a pat on a back and some skittles. YAY SKITTLES!
