Two days passed since Toph was last awake. Aang was sitting on a chair by her side, her hand in his. He wouldn't, the only time he would make an effort to do something was to go to the bathroom and eat. It was at one moment when the Avatar walked back in the room from going to the bathroom that he saw the Blind Bandits eyes flutter open.
"Toph" Aang rushed to her side as soon as he saw her sightless eyes open.
"Twinkles?" she asked.
"It's me," the Avatar pressed his hand to her cheek, "you're finally awake."
"Yes thank you mister obvious," Toph's face squished in pain and her hand flew to her abdomen, "wow that hurts so much. Didn't Katara heal this thing?"
"She did what she could, since we waited. Remember she was-"
"Yeah, yeah, I know helping Suki."
Aang laughed, "She couldn't heal it all the way. It's the same thing that happened to Zuko." Aang looked at Toph then to her stomach where the wound was, "Toph, you're going to have a really bad scar."
Toph looked away, "It doesn't matter. How's Suki and the baby?" she looked back at the Avatar with sightless eyes, "Katara saved them right?"
"Suki's fine," It was Aang's turn to look away, "the baby…it didn't make it."
Toph's eye's widened, "But…she…what? No, Aang, no, you're lying."
Aang grabbed hold of Toph's hand and placed it on his heart, "It's gone."
"But…I felt the heart. I felt it beat. Suki and I…we would make up music to the beats."
"Toph…"
"No, we would think of weird names. I was actually exited to be called Auntie Toph," a tear rolled down her face. Aang frowned and hugged her, "I'm fine," she smiled, "how's Suki?"
"She…it's weird, she hasn't cried, it's like is hasn't hit her yet. She just sits there. Sokka hasn't left her side. It's like he's waiting for a bomb to explode. She's really quiet and just sits and stares."
"Suki," Sokka closed the door, "Toph's finally awake," Sokka smiled.
Suki looked toward her fiancé and nodded, she stared to stand.
"Where are you going?"
"To see Toph," The Kyoshi warrior slipped her shoes on and stepped out. The gaurds eye's widened as she walked down the hall, after all they hadn't seen her since Sokka brought her back unconscious Suki knocked on the door, it was opened by a very surprised Avatar.
"Suki!"
"Suki's out there?" Toph's voice was heard through the room, "let her in."
Suki walked in, "Hi Toph, how are you feeling?"
"Good," Toph looked at Aang, "Get out Twinkles, this is girl talk."
Aang smiled and closed the door. The Avatar walked down the hall and turned a the corner.
"Aang!"
"Hey Katara, Zuko."
"You're not with Toph." Zuko observed.
"Yeah, she kicked me out." He smiled.
"Why?"
"Suki came in to talk to her."
"What?" The two asked in unison.
"Yeah she walked in and was speeking."
"Wow, she hasn't come talk to me. Hat is so special about Toph?" Katara said, "Aang don't answer that question." Aang shook his head and laughed.
Sorry for it being so short. That's all I got done today during American Lit. lol I don't know where to go from here. But I'm thinking about changing the title and making a Part III. I hope this clears somethings up now. Please don't bring out the fire and pitch forks because the baby is gone. Sorry.
Points!
Give me ideas...
What do you guys want to see happen?
