Toph sighed. They just didn't understand... She WOULD get out and kick their butts all over again. After all, she WAS the world's greatest Earthbender.
"I gotta go to the bathroom!"
She laughed inwardly as Master Yu almost let her out. He really was an idiot. If he didn't have Xin Fu to wise him up, he'd be cooked meat out in the real world.
Toph hammered against the metal box. She heard Xin Fu saying something about how it was metal; she wouldn't be able to do any of her Earthbending.
"Just shows how much you know about me." She whispered.
Somewhere, somehow, she heard a faint voice saying, "Everything is connected. Metal is just earth that has been purified." She closed her non-seeing eyes and pushed the earth.
"C'mon metal..."
The metal box gave.
Toph smiled wickedly. "Whoo! Toph, you rock!"
And when Master Yu and Xin Fu looked in astonishment at the hole in the metal, and stared at her when she called to them, Toph knew.
She had just made history as the first metal-bender ever.
"I am the world's GREATEST Earthbender! And don't you two dunderheads forget it!" She yelled to the two idiots as she stuffed them into that pathetic box they couldn't hold her in.
She turned and raced back to Ba-Sing-Se. She was needed.
