They were in the basement of the police station in the massive training room. Katara was wearing a blue dress with white trim, Toph wearing a white tank top and black pants after having shed her armor and Zuko was shirtless.

An shape of the the pro-bending ring had been ripped out of the metal floor, troughs dug and filled with water, and cavities excavated for stacks of green disks in preparation for the special training session.

"How did I get roped into this?" Zuko asked with his arms folded and his hair down.

"Because you want them to win, just as much as we do and you know it, Sparky," Toph said with a mischievous grin on her face as she and Katara bent their knees, facing their daughters.

"Benders ready?" Sokka asked holding a gong, standing with one leg up on a bench next to Mai who was sitting.

"Ready!" the benders yelled.

Sokka banged the gong with his entire body.

Mai didn't even flinch while Sokka fell off the bench when the old clashed with the young in an explosive start.

"GAANG WATERBENDER PENALTY FOR HOSING!" Sokka yelled when Katara unleased a "MOVE BACK ONE ZONE!"

"I'LL SHOW YOU HOSE!" Katara yelled splashing her brother off the bench while Mai and Toph snickered.

They started again. "IZUMI DODGES FIRE BLASTS FROM THE FIRE LORD AND STRIKES THE CHIEF OF POLICE! LIN PROTECTS HER TEAM MATE, SMASHING A DISC FROM THE LEGENDARY! KYA DRENCHES HER FRIEND'S ANGSTY DAD-"

"Sokka What kind of commentary is this?" Zuko asked, distracted long enough for Lin to knock the wind out of him with an earth disk.

"BOOOOOOOO! NO TALKING!" Sokka yelled.

"Don't boo him!" Mai ordered swatting the nonbending Southern Water Tribe Councilman.

"COME ON, OLD PEOPLE! STEP IT UP! YOU'RE GETTING SLAUGHTERED BY YOUR OWN OFFSPRING!" Sokka yelled.

Toph slid a food back feeling both her friends back in zone two then turned into the location of Lin, Izumi, and Kya. With a smile she lifted up two earth disks and hit Kya and Izumi back a zone.

"Just you and me, Linny!" Toph smiles.

"This ALWAYS happens," Lin sighed kicking up a flurry of disks aiming them all at her mother from different directions. Toph dove to the side straight through three of them, smashing them to sand with her bare hands then kicked one Lin's way and knocked her back to zone two.

"OLD PEOPLE ADVANCE INTO THE SECOND GENERATION'S TERRITORY!" Sokka yelled enthusiastically.

Toph, Katara, and Zuko all moved up one zone and continued the onslaught.

"Pro-bending rounds only last two minutes!" Kya said feeling more and more fatigued as she blocked another water strike and returned it.

"Don't tell me you're getting tired, Sweetie! We're just warming up!" Katara said doing a kip up and jumping and spinning to send a curved hose not at Kya but at Lin who had her guard down sending her back into zone three.

They switched opponents, Lin taking on Katara and out for revenge while Kya struggled with Toph's unique earthbending style of evading.

"It's like sparring with an airbender. Is all you do evade?" Kya asked Toph.

"Nope? I just wait," Toph said doing a sweep kick sending a disk flying just millimeters over the ground knocking Kya's foot out from under her as she came down from a jump. The girl almost fell on her stomach before Toph sent a curved disk up from under lifting Kya by the stomach then a straight disk to knock her into the far wall.

"KYA IS IN THE DRAIN!" Sokka yelled.

"Oof!" Kya landed on the metal ground with a thud and bent some water over to herself to start healing her ankle.

"THE FIRE LORD AND THE MELON LORD GANG UP ON THE PRINCESS IZUMI- LIN LANDS A NICE STRIKE TO THE FIRE LORD'S LEG! ZUMZU DODGES ENEMY WATERS! LIN TAKES THE OPENING AND GETS HER OWN MOTHER RIGHT IN THE GUT- THAT HAS GOT TO HURT!"

"You little, SHIT!" Toph took a few steps, jumped and flipped in the air kicking a disk with both feet down at her daughter with enough force to dent the floor.

"What is WRONG WITH YOU? Are you TRYING to kill us before the semi-finals?" Lin yelled.

"Sorry, Linny, got a little to..." Toph began to say.

"Vengeful, maybe?" Lin asked as her mother pulled her out of the crater in the metal.

"Yeah... It happens," Toph sighed.

"Zumi, I have a question," Sokka said running over to the princess wearing a magnifying glass over one eye, examining her face while she leaned back and away awkwardly. "If all the players are incapacitated, but not thrown 'into the drain' does it still count as a knockout?" Sokka asked.

"Are they knocked out?"

"Yes,"

"Then probably," Izumi said taking a towel from her mother and walking away.

"I feel really good about Friday night! I think we're ready!" Kya exclaimed bending water around herself to heal the bruises, and aches.

"Yeah, me too," Izumi said perfectly comfortable despite the heat and sweat in the room.

"I'm proud of you, Linny," Toph said massaging her eleven year old's arms.

"Why?"

"You didn't cry when I practically BURIED you!" Toph replied cackling with laughter.

Lin rolled her eyes.
