Going Back To School
"Wow! This place is big! And look at all the kids! There's like…a thousand of them!"
"Will you hold still?" Toph grabbed Aang by his shirt collar and pulled him back next to her. "You're making me look bad!"
"What did I do?"
"You're acting like such a kid."
"…I am a kid!" Aang giggled.
"We're high school-ers now. We gotta start acting like we own this place." Toph cracked her knuckles.
"Own this place? Toph, I'm not exactly the popular type and you punch everything you don't like."
"Keep talking like that." Toph rolled up her sleeve, exposing her curvy arm.
"Man, you're in a bad mood today…worse than usual. What's bothering you?"
"The first day of your freshman year…is the most important day of high school!" Toph shook her fist with passion. "Everyone is going to remember what happens to us today. So I gotta make sure that everyone knows that I am in charge and not to step on my toes...or else!"
"Great way to make friends." Aang joked.
"Just try not to make a lot of mistakes, okay airhead? I can't bail you out of every little problem you have here."
"Yes Ma'am!" Aang saluted her.
"And don't act like such a dork! Honestly!"
RRRRIIINNNGG!
"There's the bell!" Aang smiled.
"My homeroom is in 114" Toph said as checked her palm. She had written half of her schedule sloppily on her left hand and the other half on her right.
"Mine is 212." Aang said as he ran away from Toph. "I'll see you after school! Have fun!"
"No, Aang...DON'T ACT LIKE YOU ACTUALLY ENJOY SCHOOL EITHER!" Toph yelled at him as he ran, but he didn't hear her. "What am I going to do with him?" Toph rubbed her forehead. "NO!" She looked her hand and saw a black smudge where her schedule used to be. Now it was a blur of sweat and runny ink. "This is going to be a long as hell day." She said, sighing as she left to find room 114.
