"Hey Toph! How did Mr. Bumi treat you?" called Teo once he saw her during break. Her second period didn't have any of her friends in it much to her disappointment. Sokka and Zuko made their way over to the the handicapped pair . . . although if you valued your lives you would not say that to their faces.

Toph could fight barehanded and, although not everyone knew it, there were a pair of knives hid of Teo's large long sleeves.

"You know the routine talk over whatever I did bad then spend the rest of the period talking about something more interesting. Oh. . ." Toph pulled out the brown sack, "He gave me rock candy."

"YUM! Can I have some?" Sokka made a lunge for the bag bug Toph pushed him out of the way tripping him in the process.

"Nope! All mine Snoozzles!" Toph then grabbed a handful of the sugary sweets and shoved it into her mouth.

"What about me? Don't I get any?" asked Zuko. He was smiling slightly; his dark hair covered his scar and amber eyes.

"Sure!" Toph held the bag out to Zuko.

"Why does he get some?" yelled an annoyed Sokka. He animatedly pointed an accusing finger at Zuko, "You brain-washed her into being nice to you! How dare you hurt poor Toph like that!"

Toph glared at Sokka before quickly moving behind him and pushing him into a puddle. Toph grinned ear to ear and licked some of the sugar the rock candy left on her finger.

"Sparkey would never take do that to me! Not that he could anyway." She ginned up at Zuko who was hugging her shoulders. His amber eyes glinted with amusement.

"See my little adopted sister knows that I would never do anything to her!" his eye with sparkling with mischief, Toph was still laughing at Sokka as he attempted to get out of the puddle.

Aang saw them and caught Zuko's eyes, he nodded, and it was time for a little payback for Terra.

Suddenly before anyone knew what was happening Zuko had Toph up in his arms.

"Lemme go! Lemme go Sparky! Don't make me hurt you!"Toph kicked and struggled against him, she kept her flailing feet but to no avail. Then she saw Aang grab her left foot, she managed to kick him him his shoulder with her right but he grabbed that foot as well. Laughing they swung her back and forth Toph's hands trapped in between Sparky's and her feet in Aang's grasp. She kicked and flailed but they swung her back and forth.

By this time, Sokka had gotten himself out of the puddle and had gone on his merry way eating Toph's rock candy, laughing the entire time.

"Snoozzles I hope you choke on the damn candy you little bastard! You planned this with them! Didn't you! Lemme go Sparky!"

"I'd rather not Bandit who knows what unspeakable horrors will happen to me if I do?"

"My foot up your ass!" shrieked Toph.

"Such language Toph what would your mother say?"

"I really don't care!" yelled Toph her face red, but this time she wasn't as angry, her voice had gained a slight tremor when Teo said 'mother'.

"Toph?" yelled Katara.

"In comes Sugar Queen," murmured Toph under her breathe her body still dangling in the boys grip she twisted her wrists and ankles, but their grip tightened so she couldn't move them easily, "Mind get your boyfriend off of me!"

"She's not my Girl-friend!" yelled Zuko he was angry enough that he let go of her wrist he yelped as her shoulder smacked the ground the back of her head not far behind.

"Owww . . ." Toph sat up Aang had let her legs fall and she pulled up her knees to her chest he head down, her ivory colored arms clutching the back of her abused head.

"Toph? Toph!" Katara kneeled next to her keeping her steady with one tanned arm the other trying to pry her arms away from her head, "Toph can you hear me?"

"Yes."

"Ok how many fingers am I holding up?" the Native-American girl held up three fingers.

"Three." She answered.

"What's the date?"

"May 15th 2010."

"What's you name?"

"Toph Bei- . . . Toph Terra" she answered quickly hoping that her slurring would cover up her slight mistake. She couldn't have them know who she really was. Fortunately, for her Katara was too concerned with her friend's well-being to notice a slight slurring.

"Where is the pain?"

"Back of my head, kinda feels like I was punched. Oh and my shoulders feel like I was punched a few times."

"Ok. Here . . ." Katara rummaged through her bag pulling out a water bottle and a small bottle of Tylenol. She always carried some, the group was always getting hurt and Katara was their official-unofficial med. She always had water, band-aides, Tylenol, gauze wrapping. That's what you get from a motherly lifeguard.

Toph obediently popped the pills into her mouth and gulped down the water, she stood carefully trying not to fall over.

"You ok?" asked Zuko, he knew better than to bother Katara when she was in 'Mother Guard Mode' as they liked to call it.

"I'm fine." Growled Toph, "Where is Snoozzles?"

"Erm."

"Tell me know Sparky and I'll lessen my revenge on you." Toph glared up at him with one milky jade eye and a bright jade eye, 'And people say my eyes unnerve them. Try having a dead and living eye glare at them' thought Zuko as he gulped terrified to bits by this 5'1, spiky haired, one eye blinded, fourteen-year-old girl!

"He went to the library."

"Damn him he knows that Owl Man gives me the bejebbers!"

"You mean Mr. Wan-Shi-Tong?"

"Der!" Toph glared at him

"Its break and I want some cheese bread!" called Suki who had walked over, Toph rolled her eyes and watched as Sokka drooled over the dancer.

Suki Kyoshi, the lead dancer for the local dance group the 'Fan Warriors', which was all girls. Toph personally liked Suki; she was good for pranks and fun to talk to. She had light gray-green eyes, short red-brown hair and was a little taller than Katara.

"Cheese Whore!" called Toph.

"You're a cheese whore!" yelled Suki once she had gotten over the Gaang.

"The let's get to the Caf!"

"But that means we'd have to go through the Tri!" growled Zuko.

"Yes we all know how much you hate you sadistic sister, but we want food. So suck it up Zuko."

"Hey now! Everybody calm down!" Katara said, "Let's just go get the food and avoid Azula at all costs all right!"

"Yes Sugar-Queen." Toph smiled and gave a quick hug to Katara, the Native American girl flinched away, "Hey! You patched me up just now! No pranks on you for the rest of the wee, I promise!"

"Alright then." Katara returned the blind girls hug.

"Well you all can go to the Caf for a snack! I'm going to Mickey D's, if any one would like to join me?" Zuko walked out toward the parking lot.

"Yo Sparky! I'm with you I need milk shake!" Toph laughed and ran after Zuko, punching him as she beat him to his motorcycle.

"Fine."Zuko mounted his 'cycle, a black Harley with red flames covering the sides. He handed her a black Helmet that proclaimed 'Blind Bandit' in neon green. Her two favorite colors.

"Hang on!" Zuko revved up his bike, earning a few glares from the teachers, but many admiring and swooning faces from the girls around, jealous glowers from the guys.

"Aye Aye Lord Sparky!" Called Toph over the engine, "Whoa!" she let out a triumphant howl as they raced down the streets of the seaside town of Yue.

"PULL OVER SPARKY YOU'RE GONNA PASS MICKEY D'S!" yelled Toph in Zuko's ear.

"GOT YOU!"

Zuko skidded his way to stop in front of a nearly empty McDonalds. He lifted his helmet off and tucked it under his arm; Toph smiled and did the same. Zuko laughed and ruffled her hair, earning a glare and a near bite when he waggled his finger in her face.

They walked into the nicely air-conditioned fast-food restaurant. There was a tall blonde bimbo looking girl at the counted; she barley noticed that they'd walked in.

"Hello how may I help you?" she drooled in a monotone voice; she still didn't look up from her People magazine.

"Yea you can." Started Zuko setting his helmet on the table, Toph set hers down as well.

The girl startled by his voice, she looked up, "Why heellooo there cutie, what would you like?" Toph snickered at the girl's attempt to be sexy and appealing.

"I'd like one chocolate milkshake and one vanilla both large, two large fries, and four cheese burgers, one without mustard." ordered Zuko looking at his cell phone, texting someone. Toph laughed as she felt a buzz in her pocket.

'Iz this gurl seriously hittin on me?'- Lord Sparky

'Hell yea. Look at that make-up. I could do a better job nd one of ma eyes r blind XD' - Blind Bandit

Toph laughed as the girl tried to sweeten Zuko complimenting him on his helmet and asking many questions, she bit back a smirk.

"Oh sir? I hadn't noticed you brought your little sister isn't she a cutie!" she squealed obviously trying to win brownie points with the trouble teen. Toph smiled a razor smile, and then felt a buzz in her pocket. Flipping open her cell she read Zuko's most recent text to her.

'Wanna be my pretend GF?' -Lord Sparky

'Lets do this.'-Blind Bandit

"Zuzu" smiled Toph pulling on the sleeve of Zuko's jacket, "Can we hurry up! I mean I know we are skipping but my parents may be home soon . . . I wanted some alone time with you. Can't we hurry up?" Toph fluttered her eyelashes up at her 'boyfriend'.

"Hey can we hurry the order up a bit? Me and my girlfriend in a bit of a rush. Wanna beat the parents." Zuko laughed, while Toph crackled silently, 'Best. Prank. Ever.' Was all that she thought. She saw the girl glower at her and she winked before standing on tiptoe to kiss Zuko's jaw. She winked at him and he smiled.

"Here's your food." She growled shoving the bags at us. I smiled sweetly and took them to sit down, in the back of the restaurant where she couldn't hear or see us. I took my milkshake, fires, cheeseburger, and laughed as Sparky ate his three.

We sat back laughing easily. We heard the news in the background, we turned to watch it.

"It's been nearly seven months since the disappearance of Toph Bei-Fong, heiress of the Bei-Fong oil company. Lao and Poppy Bei-Fong are now offering 5,000,000,000 for anyone who can return their daughter. Police are working 'round the clock to find this poor girl. It is to be believed that she was abducted. A reward of 100,000 is to be given to anyone who can give information about her where about."

"Toph . . ."

"Stop Zuko. Just stop."

"It couldn't have been that bad." He whispered.

"Zuko how old am I?"

"14 why?"

"They were already looking for someone to marry me off to. Some rich businessman or politician. Times haven't changed so much that arranged marriage is gone." Toph sipped her milk shake.

"Can't you call them? Or send them a letter that you're at least ok?"

"No. I hate them Zuko. If it weren't for my 'disappearance', you and the group wouldn't even have known I existed. I'm 'fragile'. It's not my fault I was born prematurely and had one blind eye, I'm not weak. I don't need someone constantly telling me that I can't do this or that because of my 'fragile' state, because of my condition." Toph looked away from the scarred young man she gripped her helmet.

"Then can't we at least tell the others. I don't like keeping this from them." Zuko took a bite from his burger.

"No. I trust you enough to keep this secret. However, Sugar-Queen and Snoozzles couldn't keep a secret to save their lives. T.T is an airhead and will constantly bother me about it. Unagi is ok but I really don't her to tell Snoozzles."

"I know but only Uncle Iroh and I know. You need to have others know in order to help you. All they know it that you're a runaway. Don't you remember how we found you?"

"How can I forget?" Toph smiled and punched Zuko's arm remembering the night well.
