UPDATE:

Hey, apologies for messing up with the whole 'seeing' aspect. Obviously, I know that Toph is blind but originally I ended up writing parts where she 'looked around' and stuff. Normally, due to her bending, this would make sense but her bending was removed by Ty Lee SO she wouldn't have the 'Earth Sight' so yeah. My bad!


Toph stood in the middle of the room; her head bowed and her mouth closed. She had no snarky comments, nothing to say to her Queen.

"Good job, Toph," Ty Lee said to her subject, "Well done," and with that she looked toward the other five women; all of them looking the same, "And to you as well, Ty Lee's," she said with smile.

One of the Ty Lee's spoke, "I believe Mistresses Ty Lee and Azula will be most pleased."

The first Ty Lee nodded her head, "Indeed; but, I must awaken Toph before we arrive. The rest of you must leave, she must not know of us."

The other five Ty Lee's nod their heads, "Of course," and with that they leave through the hidden back entrance. The hidden door closes behind them.

"Strap yourself into the straps, Toph," she commands.

Toph nods, "As you wish," she says with all respect. After doing so, she awaits further instruction. Her head still bowed.

"The Queen wishes for you to awake, for your time of service has ended; awaken and remember not."

"Yes, Mistress Ty Lee," Toph answers.


Toph awakens in a room that appears to be a Fire Nation royal chamber. "Where am I?" She demands, pausing and then asking, "What the hell is going on? Who are you" She asks, furious at herself for being captured in the first place.

"Why, Toph," the woman answers, in a hurtful voice, "You don't remember me? I'm hurt," she sniffles, "I finally managed to catch you and remove your powers; and you don't remember me?" She shakes her head, "How dare you?"

Toph growls, "Face me one-on-one without the fire next time and I'll beat the shit out of you!"

The woman laughs, "Oh dear, Toph, you couldn't defeat me even if you wanted to," "What's the matter? Can't see without your precious earthbending?" Ty Lee smiles, "It's me, Ty Lee."

"Ty Lee," Toph growls out, "Let me go and I'll beat you so hard you'll wish you were never born!"

Ty Lee shakes her head, "Oh, little girl," she says with a smirk, as she touches Toph's chin, "You are harmless now; don't you understand?" She laughs out, "You're nothing more than a harmless little girl. Nothing more than that. Especially," she looks Toph over, "without clothes."

Toph, only now realizing the full extent of her current situation, begins to blush. She doesn't want; hell, she hates showing any weaknesses but come on! There's only so much a little girl can take. Being naked in front of your enemy? Yeah, totally not something Toph was expecting.

"Now," Ty Lee smiles, "Let's take you to see Aang, Sokka, and Zuko. Okay?"

Toph growls out, "If you're expecting me to be embarrassed than you certainly are out of luck. You think taking away my clothes will make me any less willing to fight you?"

Ty Lee shakes her head, "No, dear little girl, I expect nothing from you. I never expect anything from children." With that, Ty Lee grabs Toph by the hair and begins to drag her out of the Air Ship's royal chambers. They begin to pass many people, both males and females, as they make their way down into the prison decks.

Ty Lee smiles as they make it to the door, "Well," she says, "Here we go," she then nods to one of the guards. The guard nods his head as he opens the door, while Ty Lee tosses Toph inside, "See you soon," she says.

Aang, Sokka, and Zuko are inside. All three of them are also naked and bound as well. Toph growls out as the door closes, "Fucking slut!" She screams out. She sighs, looking down at the ground, "We're on an airship," she says to the others.

Aang nods, avoiding his gaze, "I know. Are you alright, Toph?"

Toph shrugs, "Nothing like being dragged around an airship naked to make the morning more fun," she says.

Zuko sighs, also avoiding his eyes, "I'm sorry." He shakes his head, "I never expected Azula and Ty Lee to take it this far."

Sokka, who has been looking at a wall, just shakes his head, "It's not your fault, Zuko. At least the four of us are together."

Toph, who can't see, doesn't need to avoid her gaze, "Hey," she suddenly says, "Where are Sugar Queen and Ms. Emotional?" Toph asks, referring to Katara and Mai.

Aang sighs, with a shrug, "Katara was here but Ty Lee took her to heal Mai."

Toph, although not a huge fan of Mai, wonders why she needs a healer, "Why does Happy Face need to be healed?"

Sokka laughs a little at the new nickname, "We're not sure," he answers.

Zuko, although in love with Mai, chuckles at the name as well.


Katara, also fully nude, stands over the naked and burnt form of Mai. A male guard stands by the door, adding to the embarrassment that Katara is already feeling. She has no time for such feelings right now, though, because she has to heal Mai.

The smell of burnt fresh filters through the room, showing that whoever burnt Mai clearly had meant to do harm to her but not enough to kill her. In fact, Ty Lee had all but confirmed this earlier.

"Mai must live until we get back to the palace. If she dies, I will kill each of your friends, starting with your precious Avatar."

This made Katara work even harder at saving the poor woman before her, not that she would want her to die anyway. No one deserved to die, not even Azula and Ty Lee, but they certainly were starting to earn it Katara thought; nevertheless, Katara has been working tireless for the last few hours. She knew they would be reaching the Fire Nation palace soon and she wanted to be ready. What Azula and Ty Lee would have in store for them, she wondered.

Certainly, it couldn't be as bad as what they did to Mai. What had Mai done that was so terrible that Azula and Ty Lee felt she needed to be punished so severely? What could anyone do that would make them deserve to be burned to an inch of their life? Especially that they would require to be healed with waterbending, else they would die.

It was times like this that Katara wondered if it would be easier to just give up and run away. Certainly, she could still escape but what of Mai? She would die. There was no way Katara could let someone die, especially if she could help them, even if they were once her enemy. No, she wouldn't escape and she wouldn't seek out her friends. She had to help Mai and, right now, the best way to do that was with the water that was supplied to Katara in order to heal Mai.

Sadly, even with the advanced methods of waterbending that the Northern tribe taught her, she feared that Mai would still die. Even if she did manage to save Mai's life, what would Ty Lee and Azula do upon reaching the Fire Nation? It's not like Katara knew, but she still found it comforting to wonder.


Sokka, Toph, Aang, and Zuko sat silently inside their small jail. They knew they had to remain where they were and could not escape, not without Katara and Mai. Although it didn't help that they didn't have their bending either.

Nevertheless, they would escape whenever possible. The question was how? They had been demoralized by being forced to sit together nude. Something that none of them wanted to do. Even Toph was feeling down. Sure, she once liked Sokka and thought that, maybe, one day; she would be in a room nude with him but not like this. Of course, she had moved on and accepted that Sokka and Suki are an item, but this was just making it tougher. Not to mention, being naked in front of her friends was just annoying – especially, being dragged in front of a bunch of strangers. She was already uncomfortable with her body and this was just making it worse.

Ty Lee and Azula would pay for this, she was certain of it. Toph Beifong was not a fool and would not be made one. She was going to defeat them and, frankly, she was even considering killing them. Twinkle Toes may not like the idea of killing someone, but Toph was not above the idea. Hell, they had made an enemy of her and Ty Lee and Azula would regret it. Oh, they would regret it if it was the last thing Toph made sure of.
