Flying in the sky on Appa, Katara was looking over at the lastest addition to their group. The girl who was quite possibly around Aang's age (biologically at least since he is really 112 chronically) was clinging to him for dear life. If she was not too busy remaining latched onto Aang (who surprising despite this still managed to steer Appa perfectly) would have been angry at Sokka who was laughing at her rather loudly. Though Katara wonder just what the younger girl would do to her brother once they were on solid ground again.

Normally Katara would have stopped Sokka from laughing at someone who clearly scared after experiencing what it like to being flying. Really they did not react normally when they experience Appa flying for the first time, sure it was the over blow react that Toph was giving. Neither one them just went 'oh were flying' during their first time after all. Thing might be even scary for Aang's new earthbending teacher cause she is blind and normally see through the same method as her badger mole parent that had been raising her until now, through earth bending. She knew all these things but at the moment but she really did not feel like doing anything to stop her older brother. A part of her like seeing Toph like this and maybe it was just from her being partially sleep deprived that was cause this.

'Yeah that must have been the reason as why would I be jealous of the wild girl clinging to Aang like this' Katara thought.

As for being sleep deprived, well after Toph had been convinced to join them rather then going off on her own with Aang. They decided to set camp and sleep for the night before head off to more earthbender like place for his first lesson in the art followed quickly by Toph's own lesson in being more human again. A mission that the Avatar decided by himself and from his blind teacher's badgermole parents. Who realized she was human but raised her as their own because of her massive blow to her head. Looking though Toph only allow Aang touch her hair from that he managed to see the giant scar that she had on her head. That scar being what was left over from rock that would cracked her skull if she was not an earthbender.

As they were sleeping, Toph shot up having noticed that there was something coming close to them. They were coming rather fast and unnatural speed for them to be a normal. She was used to animals that moved fast however these one were moving too fast and it did not seem natural at all to her. Letting out a loud roar that woke everyone up and she rush over to Aang telling him what was going on. Being the only one that understood her, his face went from tired to shocked as quickly gather up his stuff and started to wake Appa as well. The two water tribe sibling were left in the dark as to what two were was doing. They were fast asleep when Katara at least was awaken by Toph's roar, Sokka just remain blissfully asleep through it all. Resulting in quick stomp from the blind girl that sent him flying into the air and luckily he landed on Appa just moments after his saddle was put on. To say he was pissed at being awaken this way would have been an understatement. He would have started yelling at Toph if Aang had told him that it was possibly that Azula had found them. The fire nation princess they had first met in Omusha and learned she was pretty different then Zuko. Looking back on it they had actually lost to Azula back then as they mostly certainly did not win against her. The only reason they were all on boat heading to the Fire Nation or prisoner right now was the overall unpreparedness of Azula group. The three of them not being able to work as a team and they had a hidden trump card in King Bumi who despite being captured managed by them enough time to escape.

Once everything was set to go all that remained was Toph who seem to focusing on something at the moment. She raised her arm and slammed into the ground which smirk appeared on her face as went over to Aang wonder why they all climbing on top this large animal. Of course she was given much of answer before Aang airbend them both Appa's head. Of course Toph freaked out once her feet left the ground and clinged to the only thing she knew was this there the Avatar himself. Since he was too consume with getting out here not want to fight against Azula and her group again, he was paying much attention to her at the moment.

Elsewhere…

"Where the hell did this pit come from" Azula yelled very angrily
"Maybe we just got unlucky and the mongoose dragons did not notice this pit until it was too late" Ty Lee said offering her suggestion.

"Of course, Ty Lee as random pits appearing like this are liter across the Earth Kingdom" Mai told.

"She might have point as this pit might be natural as does not seem to be made through human bending at least. This is the Earth Kingdom maybe this just something done by badgermoles" Azula said

However Azula was not ruling out the possibly that this was done by someone on purpose completely. They were after the Avatar after all, one that did not know Earthbending so it probably was not him. However Azula was not ruling out the fact that what if he had already found a new earthbending teacher one that take the place of Bumi. That was probably why the Avatar and his group was there at the same time as them in New Ozai (what the Fire Nation Princess decided on her own to rename Omashu) looking to learn from that old king.
