Toph groaned deeply as she laid flat on her stomach wondered how she had been talked into this.
"The most tense chakra points are here, here and here." Ty Lee pointed at different points on Toph's back.
"I see." Katara nodded. "That's also what they showed me at the north pole with the healers!" she smiled.
"That's great!" Ty Lee beamed. "Feel this. It's so hard, it means her entire body is tensed up."
Toph gritted her teeth as Ty Lee was blatantly poking at a point between her shoulder blades. And then Katara repeated the motions.
"Wow you're right! That's hard as a rock!" Katara gasped.
"She's tense. Her muscles all tensed up." Ty Lee said. "I can fix it though! Remember all chakra points is connected so while the energy is centeret here. This is where the block actually is." She pointed. "So all you need to do is!"
It was a split second. Ty Lee jabbed her hand down at Toph's back and a roar could be heard across the air temple.
"AAAAAARGHHHHH!" Toph screamed. "You bastard! You!" she started to rant and then another jab came. "That… Oh… ooooh." Toph halted and a third jab and suddenly it was like Toph just melted like pudding. "That feels nice… Little lower."
"like this?" Ty Lee asked.
"Oh right there. That's the spot." Toph sighed deeply. "Don't stop." She closed her eyes.
Ty Lee grinned. "Now you try." She removed herself from Toph to give Katara room. "Just like a showed you!"
"Got it!" Katara moved in copying Ty Lees movements and she grinned. "This is going to improve my healing for sure! Thank you so much!"
Ty Lee chuckled. "I would never have guessed my Chi readings could help a water bending healer!" she stated then blinked. "Then again I didn't even know that Water bending could heal."
Toph exhaled deeply as she just laid.
"Heh." Katara smirked as she massaged the girl. "I don't think I have ever seen you this happy before."
"Shut up and continue what you're doing." Toph replied as she laid with closed eyes.
Ty Lee giggled. "I think the only one happier is Mai!" and both girls turned their head to the fourth and final girl in their group sitting right next to them but looking the other way with a big smile on her face.
"Don't mind me." Mai said. "I'm just enjoying the view."
And both girls followed Mais eyes to see Aang and Zuko down at the plaza practicing fire bending… Both of them shirtless. Though clearly Mais attention was solely on Zuko.
Ty Lee smirked. "Maybe you want to give him a special message tonight."
"Maybe I will." Mai replied.
The three girls halted and then they all giggled into their hands.
"Hey less giggling more massaging." Toph demanded.
"You got a boyfriend Katara?" Ty Lee asked. "I bet you must have so many admires! You're so pretty!"
"Oh. Thank you." Katara blushed. "I don't know. We've been so busy with saving the world and stuff. What about you?"
"Going to the beach with Ty Lee is a nightmare." Mai sighed. "The boys keeps coming in droves!"
"They are just being nice." Ty Lee stated. "Though… yeah I just haven't really felt it." She shrugged.
"Pff. Boys. Who needs them?" Toph asked. "All that gooey stuff can take a hike if you ask me."
"I think it's nice!" Ty lee said. "Flowers. Romantic dinners! Walks on the beach." She sighed deeply. "just need the right guy to do it with. Has Zuko given you flowers yet Mai?" she asked.
"He gave me a knife." Mai replied.
That made Ty Lee and Katara silence.
"Re-Really?" Katara asked. "Not… You know. A necklace or… something nice?"
"It's a really nice knife." Mai said.
"Oh… that's good." Katara halted. "I mean."
"I love my knife." Mai simply said.
"Well you do like knifes." Ty Lee said. "He really thought about what you would like!"
"Yeaaaaah." Mai sighed deeply in a warm smile as she looked back towards the boys practicing bending.
"Can I see it?" Ty Lee asked.
Mai nodded as she reached under her dress to the belt under and pulled out the slim dagger, grinning like a madman as she showcased it.
"WOOOOOW!" Both Ty Lee and Katara gasped.
"That looks like Sokkas sword!" Katara gasped.
"Zuko made it from the same material." Mai grinned. "For me!"
"It's so you!" Ty Lee gasped.
"It really is!" Katara gasped.
"I know." Mai grinned.
"It looks well made too! balanced. You could throw that really well." Ty Lee said.
"yeah I am never going to be throwing with this knife!" Mai stated as she held the item close. "What if I lost it! Zuko made this for me!"
"Oh my gosh! That's so sweet!" Ty Lee gasped. "You really like it!"
"It could totally slit some serious throat though." Mai sighed.
"Mai seriously?!" Katara asked.
"I'm just saying." Mai shrugged, though she didn't seem sorry at all.
"HEY! Where did the massage go?" Toph asked annoyed.
And Katara giggled as she returned to Toph continuing the massage.
"What do you think they are talking about up there?" Aang blinked as he looked up towards four girls who seemed to be talking and giggling with each other.
Zuko shrugged. "If there's something I learned about girls. It's to just not ask questions!"
"They are looking at us." Aang whispered. "Why do you think they are looking at us?"
"Fire bending looks kind of cool?" Zuko tried, though honestly he didn't know either.
"You think Katara thinks it looks cool?" Aang asked then whispered. "You think Katara think I look cool?!"
Zuko looked down at Aang. "Aang you are a lot of things. Cool is not one of them."
"Aawww man." Aang pouted. Just then a big roar sounded from above and Aang screeched. "APPAAAAA!" he reached up just as a big flying bison came flying downwards and they all ran to greet their friend.
The four girls coming as well just in time for Appa to land and Sokka to jump down.
"SOKKA!" Katara embraced his brother.
"Hey guys!" Sokka grinned.
"How did it go?!" Aang asked.
"Piandao… Is totally on our side!" Sokka grinned. "He's going to help out with the eclipse! In fact he insisted! And he has helped me taking contact to everyone! We have a new rendezvous point and we are going to meet earlier than before to catch up! Instead of meeting outside the Capital we are meeting on an island between Fire nation and Earth Kingdom waters. In fact…. We should pack up right now and get going!" he stated. "The first could start arriving as soon as today!"
"So you mean… DAD!" Katara cheered.
"And Zhau-Li!" Zuko beamed.
"We even managed to contact Nani and her warriors! They are coming too!" Sokka beamed. "So what are we waiting for!? Let's all pack up and get going!"
And everyone cheered before they hurried to pack everything up so they could get moving.
