Hello everyone! I would like to thank everyone for the reviews even though there were only a few it really made my day reading them.
P.S.- Just in case you don't know what dead bug is it's a game that my local skating rink plays where the DJ will play music and you all skate around and then when he/she stops the music and says dead bug everyone falls down and acts like their dead bugs. The people who look the most like a dead bug gets a coupon or a glow stick.
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar sadly but, I do own all three seasons on DVD!

Katara's POV
I woke up the next day around ten thirty and went into the kitchen to get some breakfast when I saw Sokka on the phone with someone. I got a pop tart and sat down next to him at the table.
"I will tell her and we will all meet there at two o'clock"
"Okay bye."
"Who was that?" I ask.
"That was Aang he said we are all going to go roller skating."
"Sounds cool, did you ask Dad?"
"Yeah he said it was ok."
"So who is taking us?"
"Dad is and we're also taking Aang because his uncle is out of town."
I nodded then finished my breakfast and got up to go take a shower. Soon enough I was ready to go and it was only one o'clock. I walked into the living room and sat down next to Sokka. We sat there watching TV until one thirty when the door bell rang.
"Come in" Sokka yelled from the couch.
"Hey guys" said Aang as he walked through the door.
"Hey are you two ready to go?" Sokka asked as he got up.
We both nodded and I went to go get Dad and we all hoped in the car and were off. It took us a half hour to get to the skating rink since it was on the other side of town but, we got there none the less. Once we arrived we walked in to find Mai, Zuko, Suki, and Haru all skating around while Toph who can't skate was in the DJ booth trying to get them to play some better music. The three of us then took off to get our skates and were off on the floor in a matter of moments.
The day started out fun, the whole rink played dead bug, we did the Macarena in the center of the floor and yes with our skates on which caused a lot of falling, but that was all until Suki and Haru go into a fight. He made some kind of rude comment that sent Suki over the edge. After Suki flipped out on him he left and Toph and I went to comfort her.
"It's okay Suki he's just a being a jerk" I said trying to stop her crying.
"I know it's just he seems to be acting like this more and more recently and I can't take it."
"Then why are you still with that jerk?" Asked Toph.
"I don't know I guess it's because he's a good guy."
"I know what you need" I said getting up "come on lets go."
"Where are we going?" Questioned Suki.
"You'll find out" Toph and I said at the same time.
Meanwhile with the guys…..
Sokka's POV
"I can't believe Haru was being such a jerk" said Zuko as he continued to kick my butt at air hockey.
"Yeah and I still can't believe he left" said Aang.
"Well Suki is to good for him anyway" I said trying my best to score a point.
"Your just saying that because you're madly in love with her" Aang pointed out.
"WHAT! I am not!"
"Yes you are don't try to hide it" Zuko said.
"Okay I admit it but, I'm not the only one who is in love but, won't tell the girl!" I say trying to change the subject to Aang.
"What are you talking about!" Aang said blushing and failing horribly to lie.
"You know exactly what I'm talking about don't you Aang."
"You two have some serious girl problems" Said Zuko.

Toph's POV
"Candy?" Suki said skeptically "Are you guys serious?"
"Yes, and this isn't just any candy" I said as Suki looked at me funny.
"Their pixie sticks" Katara said.
"And this is supposed to cheer me up."
"Geez, just try it" I said shoving the pixie sticks towards her.
"Okay fine" said Suki as she gulped down one of the pixie sticks.
"Now drink some coke" Katara said handing her the drink.
Suki took a few sips of the coke and in a matter of moments she was bouncing off the walls. Katara and I calmed her down a bit and they both took off their skates and we all walked around to find the boys. We walked into the arcade to find all three of them at the air hockey table.
"Ha I beat you again!" Said Zuko victoriously.
"Hey it's not my fault you're like king of air hockey" said Sokka.
"I'm undefeated!"
"I bet I can beat you" Aang said.
"Ha I'd like to see you try."
"You're on!"
Aang's POV
"Okay you two I want a good clean match" said Sokka.
"There is only one rule, no bending" Sokka said before looking at me "yeah I'm talking about you mister avatar!"
I agreed, we shook hands, and then the game began, we shot the puck back and forth until Zuko got the first point. The game continued on for a while until it was tied up nine to nine the next point wins and by this time many of the other skaters had stopped and were now hovering over the air hockey table.
I hit the puck and Zuko blocked it and it came right back towards me. I hit it as hard as I could and it flew across the table before Zuko had time to think it was in his goal.
"I won!"
"No way!" Zuko said after realizing he had been defeated.
Everybody cheered and clapped for me and then all of my friends walked up and dragged me out of the crowd.
"Our parents are outside so we have to go" said Sokka.
As we walked towards the door Katara and I were walking a little farther behind. "Congratulations Aang" she whispered in my ear then she kissed my cheek. Yeah I'm defiantly glad I won now.

Sokka's POV
By the time we got home it was four thirty and Katara went up stairs to take a nap and I stayed down in the living room and watched some TV. That was until I got a call from a very freaked out Toph thirty minutes later.
"Hey Toph what's-"
"I need to talk to Katara now!" Toph insisted.
"She is taking a nap."
"Wake her up it's important!"
"Okay chill out don't have to be so snippy."
"Whatever."
Katara's POV
Sokka barged into my room and woke me up from my nap telling me Toph was on the phone and it's important. I tried to ignore him but I knew that if Toph said it was important then it probably was.
"Hello" I said into the phone groggily.
"My Mom is insane you won't believe what she is doing now!"
"What happened?"
"She is forcing me into this stupid pageant!"
At this I busted out laughing.
"You're not helping here!"
"I'm sorry it's just so hilarious that the greatest earthbender In the world has to wear a dress" I said between laughs.
"I'm trying to be serious my Mom said if I don't do this then they are going to start home schooling me and keep me away from all of you guys!"
"She can't do that!"
"You better bet she can and my Dad agrees with her too."
"That is so messed up!"
"Yeah."
"So I guess you have no choice."
"No! I will not give in this easily!"
"Toph be realistic, you know your Mom isn't bluffing when it comes to this."
"I know but, there is no way I'm wearing a dress!"
"Toph you going to have to but, don't worry Suki and I will defiantly help you out so you won't go out on stage looking ridiculous."
"Thanks Katara but, I don't think you are ever going to get me into a dress."
"Well I'm going back to my nap we will all talk about it tonight at your house."
"Okay bye."
"Bye."

Narrative POV
When six o'clock came around the whole gang gathered at Toph's house. Toph's parents were never to happy about all these teenagers in their house but, Toph had persuaded them to have some freedom. When they all got there they were directed by some of Toph's guards to go downstairs to the living room.
Toph's parents were rich so her house was the biggest in the coldesac and usually when they weren't swimming at Zuko's they were hanging at Toph's house. Her living room had a huge screen TV, a wii, a play station two, a blue ray DVD player, a large couch to the left of the stairs and a medium sized one in the middle of the room facing the TV, and lastly a mini fridge in the corner of the room. The gang walked in unfazed because they had seen this room many times before. The first thing they did was break out the wii and start playing guitar hero.
"I call first who wants to battle me?" Called Sokka.
"I will since you're going to lose anyway" Zuko replied.
As the battle began Katara brought up the pageant which resulted in everyone cracking up.
"Hey remember your in the house of a very powerful earthbender right now."
"Sorry Toph but, I can just see some poor unfortunate person trying to get you into a dress" said Sokka.
"Well there are actually two people who are going to be there persuading her" said Katara.
"Who?" A majority of the gang said at the same time.
"Katara and I" Suki said from next to Katara.
"Ha you think you can actually think you can pull this off?" Zuko questioned.
"Well it's either that or I am going to be home schooled for the rest of my life and not be able to see any of you every again according to my Mom." The whole group went silent after Toph said this.
"That sucks" said Sokka.
"Did she say you have to win the pageant?" Asked Mai.
"Nah, she said I just had to participate and at least try to win."
"Well I think we can do it when is the pageant anyway?" Asked Katara.
"The last weekend in August" Toph answered as she sat in a bean bag chair in front of the TV.
"Well we have a lot of time so we will just start getting you ready for it in a week or so" Katara said.
"What do you mean by getting me ready for it don't I just have to show up walk down a runway in and a dress then they judge me?"
"I don't think so Toph, I think you have to get interviewed and junk like that along with showing proper manners and stuff" said Suki.
"Ugh this is going to suck!" Toph yelled out and leaning backwards in her bean bag chair causing her to hit her head on the ground. "Owe!"
Everyone busted out into laughter and they all went back to playing guitar hero then ate the pizza when it got to the house and soon it was time to go. They all said their goodbyes and went to their separate houses.
