This is the last fight. The next and final chapter will be up soon and almost entirely waff and fluff. Hope to have it up soon.
Thank you for reviewing.
-----------------
Toph and Aang where up with the sun to warm up for the final match. It was scheduled to start at 12:00. They arrived at the arena at 11:30 to get ready. The stadium seats where beginning to fill with the diehard fans having been there for hours already. Team Ourea was already there preparing.
They saw Toph and Aang and walked over to them. The woman was the first to speek.
"Hello it's the Blond Bandit and Bald Brigand right? We are looking forward to this match, it promises to be exciting."
"Team Ourea you are skilled earthbenders." Aang responded "I also look forward to our match." He lied; he didn't like fighting at all.
"We need to practice some moves Brigand" Toph sounded slightly more irritated than normal.
"Then we shall see you in the ring." The man said and they walked to the other side of the trough that surrounded the ring.
As the announcer began the match the roar of the crowd was louder than Aang thought possible. People where standing in the isles to see the final round, security was doubled, and the venders had given up selling there wares.
"Let the final match begin"
The battle began slowly with rocks thrown and deflected, earth rifts launched and bent away, a show of basic earthbending expertly manipulated and then expertly countered. Toph had made a cloud of dust and got the upper hand but it wasn't enough, team Ourea countered the dust storm and took back the initiative. This back and forth went on for around ten minutes. Then team Ourea started to move in a pattern that neither Aang nor Toph could identify.
"They're up to some thing." Aang needlessly informed.
"I know it." was Toph's response.
There opponents had identified Toph as the better earth bender and planed to eliminate her first. They came at her, and she launched an especially large bolder at them. The man launched his partner toward the missile and she kicked the bolder with both feet, using bending to splinter the rock and shower Toph with smaller rocks. Then when the woman hit the ground she hit the still stunned Toph with an earth pillar throwing her out of the ring.
Aang could do nothing but watch as the moves happened too fast for anything else. His anger was evident when he launched two earth pillars, one at each opponent. The woman dodged her pillar and the man turned his aside with bending, but then the pillars changed direction striking from above downward. The woman avoided it again but the man was caught off guard and thrown to the ground by the hit.
Aang charged the woman and they exchanged punches and kicks enhanced with earthbending. She was just as angry as Aang by this point, and the aggression of their moves was more familiar to firebending than earthbending. As they circled each other there moves quickly became less fearsome and more precise. Then a rock hit Aang frome the side.
The woman had him pinned to the ground with an earthen knife to his throat. The man was standing to the side in Aang's peripheral vision. Aang's body went limp it was over and he knew it.
"Team Ourea has won, they are the champions."
As the ceremonies to christen the champions began Aang made his way to the arena's stairs. At the bottom Toph was waiting on an earth bench.
"That was impressive, until you let him blindside you like that."
"Not everybody has your all knowing feet." Then he saw the red splotch on her green top. "You're bleeding!"
"It's nothing, I'll take care of it at he inn."
Aang would have argued but Toph was gone and he knew he would have lost if he had argued.
