Revenge

Part deux

In the land of the blind One-eye is king

Disclaimer: I never owned Atla, and I never will

Okay, here's the first real chapter of revenge part two, but I'm telling you now, in this chapter Toph and Sokka aren't the most important persona's, it is mostly about the other involved characters that will have an impact on Toph and Sokka, after this chapter, they're back in picture, though not to let you go cold turkey, I inserted some Tokka scenes.

Anyway hope you enjoy, please review!

Oh, and maybe you wanna get a drink or something, because it's a bigie.

Chapter one: Catching up

Six weeks ago

Life's to long. That was his motto. Hurio Tamal was sitting behind his desk, sipping his tea from a stone cup. Hurio, old, rusty and gray, was an agent of the newly formed Dy lee Agency, or D.L.A. for short. He spent his life keeping bad people of the streets, but unfortunately a few years back organized crime hit Ba sing se. Nobody knew who led it, nobody knew who was in it, but he knew that there a lot of rats and criminals in the D.L.A.. Extortion, kidnapping, murder, he had seen it all, and it didn't get any better.

He remembered the case he worked on a few weeks ago, entering the house and catching the smell of death and torture, rotting flesh and disease. The ground floor was completely torn up, the table broken, the sofa turned over and covered with earth, books lying on the ground and a blood trail leading around the corner. He prepared himself for what he would find around the corner, but no man is ever completely prepared. There lied a man, well half of one really, the guts were spilled on the floor, and the part below the belt was missing. He felt the vomit coming up but kept it in, it wasn't the worst he had ever seen, he fought in the war after all.

Feeling ill from the stench, he climbed the stairs towards the master bedroom, slowly he opened the door and got tears in his eyes as he saw the dead naked woman lying on the bed. She had obviously been raped. She had a bloody boulder sticking through her chest and the most terrified look on her face Hurio had ever seen. As he grasped for his handkerchief to wipe away the tears he noticed that the woman's dead eyes were fixated on a wardrobe from which the door was slightly open. He braced himself and as he opened it and gazed upon the young girl's mangled body he fell on his knees and cursed the spirits.

Hurio woke up from his flashback because he noticed that he broke his mug by earth-bending. The hot tea spilled on his hand, wich he quickly putted it in the waterreservoir. His younger assistant Ronin Fang (Or just Fang for short), known as the playboy of the D.L.A., entered the room.

"I've got our latest case T (nickname of Hurio)." He told him "Hey, why are you putting your hand in the water?"

"Uh, accident." Hurio replied. Fang saw the shards ot the cup, but was smart enough not to say anything. "Let's go."

Present

Toph woke up finding Sokka asleep on her right breast. She started to run her fingers through his hair and smiled, stroking his head. This awoke Sokka. She cherished every moment as he opened his eyes and lifted his head, slowly moving his lips to hers and shared a passionate kiss. They both smiled and shared another kiss, Sokka moved his left hand to lift up the hair in front of her eyes.

"Sokka, I don't need that, I can't see, you'd think you'd get that after six years." she moved his hand so that the hair fell before her eyes again.

"I know, but..." He reached again.

She stopped his hand before it reached it's destination. "What?"

"You have..." he uncovered her eyes again "The most beautiful eyes I've ever seen"

She felt a tear coming up but suppressed it, it wouldn't be very Toph of her. "Come on you big softie" she said "lets get some breakfast." She got up and moved towards the door. "If your lucky, I'll let you eat it of of me."

You can't believe how fast Sokka was in the kitchen.

Six weeks ago

Hurio and Fang arrived at a house near a river. Fang brought out a notebook. "Pepin Mil, single, a few little run-ins with the law, that's it." He read.

"That's it?"

"Jup"

"Let's go"

They entered the house, and went up to the bedroom in it they found a fat man tied to a chair, his ear had been cut of, so had one off his hands and three of his fingers. His face was beaten up and his throat was slitted. Hurio looked at the body and heard Fang vomit. The senior inspector sighed, Fang didn't have the stomach for this kind of job.

"Think it's mafia?" Fang asked, wiping away the puke on his lips.

"That would be my bet, I guess. I'm getting to old for this Fang."

"You're not gonna quit, I know you."

"Yeah, yeah."

After a while of examining the body and the room they left the house. But Hurio couldn't help but feel that something was different about this case. Little did he know that in a few weeks he'd get the Lee Ataki case as well...

Present

Toph and Sokka had made a picnic. They spend the day going to the zoo Aang made all those years ago, when they were still little children. After a morning of 'watching' the animals they lied down in the warm grass, Sokka watched the sunset and Toph listened to him breathing.

"So," she said "Has the grumpy, always worried warrior finally found happiness?" she asked.

"Hey, I can still be grumpy." He joked.

"No, face it your happy."

"It's time to go home." He replied snickering.

"Now that's grumpy, she laughed."

This afternoon

Hurio and Fang were brainstorming over the two cases that they were given, they knew they were linked because the two victims were friends of each other and they were both killed by a blade, and both murders were committed with so little time between them.

"I know were missing something crucial here!" Hurio shouted out, frustrated that they didn't get anywhere.

"Hey you don't have to get mad man. You lose your control over earth-bending when you get mad and I don't want to be buried in earth."

"That's it, Fang you're a guineas."

"Well I know that, but what do you mean?"

"Earth, that's what we were missing, literally."

"Of course, the mafia uses earth-bending to kill their victims..."

"... and there was no earth shifted at either of the murders. Fang I want you to check the names of every non-earth-kingdom resident with sword-skills that lives in the vicinity or was in the vicinity of either Lee Ataki or Pepin Mil. And make haste." They were close now he could feel it.

Meanwhile somewhere else, Buy Lings surviving bodyguards were being slaughtered in Buys house by the boss of the Ba sing se mafia. All but one. The remaining guard soiled himself in fright when he saw the boss' determined and ice-cold look. The boss walked towards him between the lifeless white body's of his friends, floating in their own blood, and placed a hand on his neck, choking him, lifting him and pressing him up against the wall. The Boss asked one simple question.

"Who was it?"

"A... gasp... man and a woman."

"And...?" Said the boss closing her hand tighter.

"Please... I, uh... don't kill me... The guy had a ... ah... black sword ... and the girl was ... blind."

The boss's eyes were filled with fury. In an uncontrollable anger she squeezed his neck completely shut, pulverised his neck bones. Blood spilled on the hand that did the crime and there was plenty of it to. The boss dropped the lifeless body along with the others and stepped out of the room. There awaited the boss's two best bodyguards

"Lian, Tyfo, I want you to bring me back Toph Bei Fong and her lover Sokka ... and I want them back here tonight."

Back at the D.L.A.

"Hey T, check this one out." Said Fang, throwing a piece of paper to Hurio.

"You've got to be kidding me."

"No, look I know he's one of the avatar's friends, but he's also one of the only people that lives in such a rich vicinity as Pepin mil that's not earth-kingdom. He's got skills with the blade and look at this, he was invited to participate in Lee Ataki's tournament, but refused."

"I don't know..."

"Ah come on, I've got a gut-feeling about this one."

"Fine, saddle up the horse-cheetah's. If we hurry we can be there by ten."

Tonight 9: 45

Sokka and Toph were lying in a sofa, cuddled up enjoying the fireplace and making out. Sokka's hands moved over Tophs body underneath her shirt. Toph was pushing her tongue so far down his mouth that he nearly couldn't breath. After a bit more of tongue massaging Toph pulled back.

"Damn it" She said

"What? Did I do something wrong?" Sokka asked

"No, it's not that. We're about to be interrupted." she explained.

No sooner than she spoke, someone knocked on the door.

"There are two of them, and they seem nervous."

Sokka got up to answer the door.

A/N: Okay, so that's the first chapter and I swear, Toph and Sokka (especially Toph) will be put more into the light from here on out, and one more thing D4rk, Although I think the chapters will be longer, I think there will be fewer, about ten.

Please review, and check in for 'The reaction'.
