*Katara and Suki walked up to the right side of Toph, who was at her locker.
"What is wrong with you?" Katara asked angirly.
"Uh, a lot of things." Toph said obviously. "Hey, one of you got the math homework? I was kinda busy last night to do it."
"Yea, we know you were busy! Busy giving Charlie a black eye!" Suki stated.
Toph closed the door, facing them. "I have a black eye too, ya know." She said, pointing to her left eye.
"Well, maybe you deserved it." The two girls crossed their arms.
Toph waved a hand. "You got it wrong. A fist came flying out of nowhere!"
"Toph, just...geez."
"What? I didn't hit her!"
"You made that threat in science class."
"Well, yea. I just punched her in the eye. Not in the face. Besides, do you think Charlie can give me a shiner like this?"
The two were quiet. They didn't want to answer that question.
"That's what I thought."
Charlie tried to run, but the grip of Katara's on her collar was to strong.
"Just tell us who gave you that black eye! Was it Toph?"
Charlie finally gave up. Man, she really needed to work out or something.
"Was it Toph?" Suki repeated.
She shook her head. "It's Grant's fault we have black eyes." Her's was the right eye.
"Grant?"
"He didn't excatly hit us. It was one of his inventions."
"You two created a machine that punches you in the face?"
"Actually, the invention building is Zeke's thing. I prefer a-"
Sokka interupted their reading, jumping infront of Charlie.
"Suki, ready for our, 'End of the World,' date tomorrow?" He said excitedly.
"Sokka, I'm kind of in the middle of something." Suki stated.
Charlie, finding this the time to scadadle, made her way slowly down the hall and around the corner.
"Well, whatever you're doing, don't become too tired. That will be a night never to forget."
"Ok. I'll get enough sleep."
"Good." He said, strolling away.
"How do you like him?" Katara asked.
"He's different."
"He's Sokka."
"Oh, darn. Charlie got away!" Suki said, trying to get the heat off her.
"Whatever. Let's go talk to Grant."
"Listen, I swear I am not an abusive person." Grant assured.
"Then how do you explain the twins with the black eyes?" Suki pressured.
"Well, it was because of a machine I built last night..."
Flash-back!
"Come on, this'll be cool. It's a modern age defensive system."
"(It's a piece of metal with wheels on the bottom and two boxing gloves full of butter on top. And, that's an idea you got from iCarly.)"
"The butter is not in a sock." He said. "Besides, the gloves have heat seeking devices wired into them. They'll shoot off, and aim straight for the person trying to rob us when it senses something infront of it."
"(But, there hasn't been any crime here, in our area. This town is pretty safe. Besides, Toph and I know karate.)"
"So? What if you're asleep?"
"(Are you just trying to seem like the man?)"
"No. I am perfectly fine being protected by you and Toph. Just, if someone happens to come out of nowhere, I can control this robot while hiding in the corner at the same time. Then, you two can't say I didn't do anything." He smiled.
Charlie face palmed, shaking her head disapprovingly.
Toph walked into the room. "Hey, can I get some help with my m-"
Suddenly the machine went off, a fist sailing towards Toph. And, the other went after Charlie.
The two got hit exactly at the same time, falling to the ground, holding their faces.
"Oh, fuuuuck!" Toph cried.
Charlie groaned as she rolled on the floor.
"Oh. Ok, maybe I have a few kinks to work out."
Flash-back over...
"Then, they started complaining about both their eyes hurting, like some sort of twinsense. Huh... I should do a study on that..." Grant trailed off, his brain working.
The two girls watched as he walked away.
"Why'd we do this?" Suki asked, feeling to have wasted a day.
"Well, we're like Sherlock Holmes and Watson. We solve cases." Katara said.
"So, how about the case of why Katara likes Zuko." She offered.
"Where did that come from?" Katara glared.
"You question my relationships, I question yours."
Author's note...
I have no idea what I did with this. I just thought Suki and Katara made a good detective team...
