Aang, Teo, and Toph were sitting in the main tower of the earth kingdom base with the general and the rest of the soldiers who weren't outside fighting. The battle had gone very downhill for them. They had about 50 men left and were out of resources. They had resorted to eating the ostrich horses and they gave Aang the very last of the rice. Aang had to ration it and only ate ounce a day. They were all tired and hungry. Azula still had about 3 or 4 hundred men left. They were currently discussing what to do next.
"Scouting reports tell us Gao's men will break through the wall sometime tomorrow afternoon" One of the captains said.
"We are going to get slaughtered" Another captain answered as Aang started to speak.
"Toph, Teo, and I can punch a hole through their first wave once the wall is hit. After that we'll have to fall back and see what happens'' Aang said.
"We can board up the tower with whatever supplies we have left from the sheds" General Fong said as he stroked his beard.
"Okay it's a plan then" the first captain said.
The group split up and Team Avatar went to their bunks.
"This isn't good at all" Teo said.
"Even if we do some damage there are too many. We aren't going to win this one" Toph said.
"I'm more concerned about Azula. She is even more dangerous now that she is insane. We got to bring her down or things aren't going to fare well" Aang said.
"Let's get some sleep. Tomorrow is going to be rough" Teo said.
The group went into their beds. Each one was awake trying to pretend to be asleep. There was an underlying tension in the room. They were all thinking of the battle to come.
The next morning they woke up and ate in silence. They were all too deep in thought. Nobody spoke until a captain walked in the room where they were eating.
"You guys need to get to your post. They will be coming through the wall soon" the captain said.
They nodded and walked out in silence. They stood outside the main tower. The soldiers were finishing up boarding it up. The towers entrances were sealed off. The only way in was through a secret tunnel so that Aang, Teo, Toph, and some of the other soldiers could get back in after the initial assault. Then they would cave the tunnel in on itself.
An explosion went off from the other side of the wall creating a small earthquake. Aang looked to that portion of the wall. He noticed a small cracked. Another explosion went off. The crack became slightly bigger.
"They're coming" Aang said pointing to the crack.
"How long do you think we have?" Teo asked.
"Not long" Toph said as the ground rumbled from another explosion.
They stood and waited. They were all anticipating the breaking of the wall. The crack had now grown to a large rip in the wall. A couple of more hits and a large hole would form in the wall. Teo took to the sky in his glider. He had bombs prepared to drop.
Another explosion went off and this time the pieces of the wall crumbled. Now a large gap was where the wall should have been. Aang heard the shouts of soldiers through the smoke. Teo took that as his cue and flew over the gap. He dropped a couple of explosive bombs into the gap before gliding away. A couple of explosions went off as well as some yells. Teo kept swooping in and dropping bombs. Through the smoke Aang could make out the figures of soldiers coming. Aang punched out his fist and sent a burst of flames into the gap. Some of the men yelled but others ran through it. Aang let out a barrage of air and fire blast at the gap. He was hitting some soldiers but many were getting through the hole. Within minutes fifty had gotten through. Aang started attacking them with the help of the other earth kingdom soldiers. Gao's men were now pouring through the gap. Toph was surrounded by about twenty. She was doing her best to hold them off.
The smoke in the gap was clearing. Aang heard something weird and turned toward the gap. A fire nation tank was heading toward him. It shot a grapple ling hook at him and he swatted it away with his staff. He saw Azula standing on top of the tank. Aang swung his staff in her direction. The air slice missed her as she jumped off the tank. She landed and they both were facing each other.
"Hello Avatar" she said.
"Azula" Aang said sternly.
"I have come to take you with me. Your mine" She said.
"I don't think so" Aang said.
Before Aang could move to soldiers grabbed him with the metal handcuffs Dai Li agents used to use. Aang flung is arms in their direction sending them flying. The cuffs were still on his hands and feet. He used an air slice to split the ones between his feet and then the ones between his arms. He now just had shackles dangling on his wrist and ankles. Azula laughed.
"I'll show you my new secret weapon" Azula said.
Aang took a defensive stance. Azula pressed a button on the tank. A tube came out from the tank. Azula started doing the motions for lightning. Aang got into his stance and prepared to redirect it. Instead of firing the lightning at Aang Azula fired it into the tube. The tank made a weird noise. Then Aang felt the a pull on his wrist and ankles. He was being dragged toward Azula. He couldn't fight it. He tried earth bending himself to the ground but the rock just crumbled . Within seconds he was inches from Azula. She watched him pass her. Aang hit the tank and found he was stuck to it. His back was attached to the tanks surface. Azula walked up to him.
"Do you like it. It is the second to last invention ever given to us by the mechanist. It is a modified tank created specificaly to capture you. My lightning gives it the power to attract the shackles on your ankles and wrist. Your trapped there" Azula said.
Aang struggled but to no avail. Toph saw what had happened from the corner of her eye. She sent a wave of earth outward knocking over the enemy soldiers near her. She ran over toward Aang and Azula. Azula turned around to see Toph kicking a rock at her. Azula burned the rock away. Toph and Azula began to duel. Toph was firing rocks at Azula. Azula dodged and burned away the rocks. Azula answered with her own barrage of fire blast. Toph made a small earth wall to block the fire blast.
As Toph and Azula dueled Aang struggled to get free of the shackles. After about a minute he realized that it wasn't going to happen. Toph and Azula were intensly dueling. toph had made herself some rock armor and was charging Azula. Azula was running toward Toph. Right before they collided Azula jumped up and kicked out a blast of fire. Toph used the suit to block it and then shot the armor at Azula. Azula ducked under the armor and waved her leg shooting out a wave of fire. Toph made another wall of fire to protect herself but the fire wave went around the wave went arround the wall and scorched Toph's feet. Toph screamed in pain and fell to the ground. Her feet were burned badly.
"No Toph!" Aang yelled from his bindings.
Teo who was flying above in the sky heard Aang's cry. Teo dipped down to see Aang stuck to a tank and Azula standing over a burnt Toph. Teo swooped down and dropped his last bomb near Azula. Azula didn't see it coming and was knocked to the side by the force of the explosion. Azula jumped back up and looked up. She saw Teo flying upward. She started moving her arms in a form Aang had never seen before. Out of her hand a large coil of fire came out. She directed it up toward Teo. Teo swerved to the left dodging the blast. The coil changed direction and came back toward Teo. Azula was controling the fire coil. Teo attempted to dodge the coil but to no Avail. Azula would move it in every direction he was moving.
The fire coil finally hit the back of Teo's chair. The wings on the chair lit on fire. Teo looked back to see fire around him. He was starting to lose control of the glider. Teo tried to use his air bending to slow himself down. Aang watched as Teo's glider was smoking downward. Teo tried to pull the leer to pull up but it wasn't responding. He had lost control of the wings and his heading downward super fast. Teo tried to slow himself down but it didn't help much. Teo closed his eyes and swerved so that his left side was falling foward. Finally he collided with the wall. The chair bounced out and he hit the ground. his chair was scorched and was broken down. The earth kingdom soldiers had most fallen back or had been taken out. 100 of Gao's soldiers had now surrounded Toph and Teo.
"Take no prisoners. They are too dangerous to left alive. Take them out" Azula said to the soldiers.
"Teo, Toph no!" Aang screamed in his head.
Aang closed his eyes. When he opened them they were glowing along with his tattoos. Aang in the avatar state melted the chains with a burst of fire bending. The soldiers looked in fear. Aang waved his arms and a large tornado of air appeared. Aang was controlling the tornado. The tornado started to pick up Gao's soldiers and shoot them out over the wall. Within two minutes only Azula was left. Azula tried to out run it but even she was sucked into the tornado. After they were all over the wall Aang built a temporary wall in the gap in the wall. His tattoos ceased to glow and he fell to the ground unconcious. A few moments later Aang opened his eyes. He had no idea what had just happened. he just saw the remains of the previous minutes and the temporary wall. Aang then saw Toph lying on the ground. He immediately ran over to her.
"Toph are you okay" Aang said when he reached her.
"what do you think twinkle toes" Toph said.
"Oh sorry" Aang said.
"Well if you didn't go glowy I would be gone for right now" Toph said.
"So thats what happened" Aang said.
"What you don't remember yourself kicking everyone's butt" Toph said.
"No I just closed my eyes and then I was laying in the dirt" Aang said.
Before either could say anything they heard a groan.
"Teo!" Aang said and went over to his friend.
"You okay?" Aang asked.
"Yeah my chair took most of the damage. It will take me at least a week to repair it" Teo said.
"come on lets get out of here. Gao's men will be back through that temparary wall any minute" Aang said.
Aang used earth bending to move Teo's chair with him and went over to pick Toph up. He took them to the secret tunnel and led them back to the tower's infirmary. After they got there they caved the tunnel in on itself. Minutes later Gao's soldiers broke through the wall again. They filled the inner ring and were trying to break into the tower. Aang, General Fong, and the rest of the captains were meeting to decide what to do.
"The enemy will get through within two days" a captain said.
"There we can make our last stand" General fong said.
"Thats crazy. We should all get out of here" Aang said.
"Abandon this base. We should fight to the end" General Fong said.
"No we should live to fight another day. We have already lost this base. Lets just get out while we can" Aang said.
"That sounds like a better idea" said one of the captains.
"There are boats on the docks for an emergency escape. We can take those" another captain said.
"What about the sick and wounded. They won't last the journey" General Fong said.
"They can ride Appa to the Omashu base. My team will travel on foot" Aang said.
"We'll leave tonight" another captain said.
"You may leave but I must stay. I have been in this base for ten years. A general must stand by his base. I will fight to the end" General Fong said.
"General you shouldn..." Aang started.
"That is my finally decision" The general said sternly.
"Fine so be it" Aang said.
"Captain Li, you are in charge now" General Fong said.
"Yes Sir" Captain Li said.
That night the remaining soldiers made their way to the boats led by Captain Li. Aang, Toph, Teo and the wounded soldiers got on Appa.
"Yip Yip" Aang said.
The bison flew into the air and they went over the fort. Gao's men caught sight of them and shot projectiles at them.
"Teo you steer I'll hold them off" Aang said.
Aang jumped off the bison and landed in the middle of the soldiers. He distracted them as Appa flew away. Then he jumped in the air and went off on his glider. He met Appa and the others in a nearbye forest.
Toph and Teo had gotten off Appa.
Aang walked up to Appa.
"Okay boy you need to go to Omashu" Aang said.
He put his hand on Appa's forehead. The tattoos on his hand started to glow and Appa's arrows did too. he showed Appa images of Omashu.
"yip yip" Aang said.
Appa took off and headed toward the setting sun.
