"Here," Lee tossed Katara a bag of clothes as Suki had one of her own and went to sit with the other girl.

"What is this?" Katara looked inside seeing it was bought. They went to the thrift store and bought clothes?

"Your getting rid of the clothes you brought from home, we got you bigger sizes so it would be harder to recognize you outside," Suki explained and smiled putting a baseball cap on Kataras head.

"Go Yankees," she teased as Katara adjusted the hat confused.

"So I'm getting a makeover?" Katara took off the hat.

"Oh I love makeovers!" Ty Lee skipped into the room and sat on the bed with the rest of the girls.

"Kat, this top, your color," she gasped holding up a red oversize tee shirt.

"Am i a guy from the 90's wearing clothes three times bigger than me?" Katara made a face.

"Don't worry you can complete it with baggier jeans too," Lee nodded and she groaned.

"But lucky for you there's a belt," he gave a thumbs up.

"Aang and I will take whatever you gals don't wear," Lee told them and walked out to give them privacy as suki pulled out a hoodie with a bright smile.

"It's end of summer we gotta look for winter clothes," Suki started to organize the shirts and pants for them to choose from.

"Lee told me bout some dickhead ex your avoiding, what did you usually wear before?" Ty Lee checked the size on a pair of jeans and held them up to herself.

"A lot more skirts and basic highschool stuff, he didn't like it when I wore baggy clothes," Katara took off her tank top as she was left in her sports bra before trying on a large shirt.

"Perfect, short hair and a hat he won't even notice You on the street," she smiled tossing black jeans to Katara to finish the outfit.

"Do you all share clothes then?" Katara asked looked down at the band on her shirt curiously.

"Yep, it's easy to pass them around and most of us are the same size, the jeans might be to big for Aang thou, but he should be hitting his big growth spurt in the next two years," Suki explained pulling a shirt over her head and grabbed the few pairs of women jeans there was.

"Think he'll get taller than Lee?" Ty Lee grinned.

"I hope so, it would be so funny for Aang to be 16 and taller than Lee at 19," Suki laughed at the idea of their youngest being a giant.

"He's definitely going to pass you first Suki," Katara giggled.

"Hey I'm only 5'2!" She gasped.

"My point stands," Katara hummed a little. Her and ty Lee laughed as they shared the same height.

"I'm heading out to go back to the rink with Toph, you guys wanna come?" Suki asked pulling her hair half up.

"Maybe later, I still have a major headache from the other day, it's pretty loud there," Katara changed again into a pair of shorts and let the large tee shirt hang.

"I'll kick back with you kat," Ty Lee smiled over at her as she braided her long hair over her shoulder.

"I'll see you guys later," Suki waved when she left and Katara went to the window to see her reflection to fix her hair.

"So like how big is this ex? Can I take him in a fight?" Ty Lee asked after a moment of silence.

"Eh around lees height, he use to do wrestling but that was a year ago," Katara tied her short hair in two low pigtails since it was hard to fit it in one.

"I was thinking about meeting up with a friend or two if You want to come? It can get boring here," the other girl offered as Katara put the Yankees cap on.

"Sure why not, I'm meeting a lot of new people this week," Katara smiled back at her.

"Yay! I'm so excited for you to meet them," she clapped jumping. Katara gasped surprised when her hand was grabbed and dragged out the door.

-

"Hiiiii I brought a friend!" Ty Lee sang walking into someone's apartment with Katara behind her.

"Tyyyyy!" Everyone called back happily.

"This is my gal pal kat, she's new to the city," Ty Lee put her arm around Katara with a smile

"Kat this is everyone plus a few more, come sit," she pulled the new girl to the couch and everyone continued their conversation, Ty lee chiming in on a few.

Katara looked around curiously if she would know anyone and thankfully there was no familiar faces. The apartment was small and dark with neon lights decorating the walls and tapestries on the ceiling. The smell of drugs surrounded her and a few people sat by the open window with cigarettes and joints. Pipes and bowls scattered the coffee table in front of her.

"Ty want a taste?" Someone offered to her as they scooted a couple pills.

"Glad your out of juvy man," ty Lee took the drugs and leaned against Katara smiling.

"Dude I'm so sick of my probation officer, she's such a bitch and keep ratting on me," the boy groaned as he lit a pipe and passed it around.

"Maybe if you just kept your drugs away when she comes over you wouldn't be so screwed," Ty Lee laughed taking a hit. She offered it to Katara but the new girl shook her head.

"So kat, where You staying in town?" A girl asked on the couch opposite of her.

"Oh with ty Lee and some friends down town," Katara leaned back with her knees to her chest.

"Ty You still hanging with those two bald losers? You always leave for a few days," another person asked.

"Lee and Aang?" Katara asked clarifying.

"Lee? Oh yea Lee," the girl before grinned mischievously as she leaned against her own boyfriend.

"I think lee might an old friend of ours," she whispered, Ty lees smile dropped a little and pulled her weight off to go back by Katara.

"No not lee and Aang, I don't hang with those freaks no more, you know I'm zulas girl," Ty Lee leaned forward with a confident smile.

"Yea and she's not one of lees girls? She definitely looks the part, what was his last one? Suka? Suki?" The boyfriend chuckled and Katara looked confused as ty Lee took her hand.

"Told you I don't associate with them, not after that shit last year," she narrowed her eyes.

"Come on kat these guys are on one today, we'll hang another time," ty Lee stood up.

But she heard a gun click when she turned her back to the group of teens on couches.

"How bout we keep this pretty girl for a bit, yea?" The boyfriend had a gun in his hand while he wrapped an arm around his girlfriend. The gun pointed at Katara who was frozen on the couch.

"T-ty?" Katara whispered wide eyes.

"Chan, knock it off it's not funny, your being a jerk," Ty Lee crossed her arms.

"I'm not trying to be funny, I'm just straightening out some facts cause apparently I've been hanging with a liar," Chan shrugged as Katara didn't dare move seeing the gun didn't leave.

"I've been hanging with mai, I'm just taking it easy these days," Ty Lee huffed keeping her cool.

"Alright, why don't you bring me mai with what you fucking owe me, or bring lee around? Either way I want what you've been meaning to pay back, then you get your kat back," Chan explained calmly.

"I'd get moving if I were you," his girlfriend offered.

"I don't have that money yet, you know I don't," Ty Lee barked a little, worried for her friend.

"Then kat might have a slumber party with us, yea?" Chan laughed a little.

"Unless you got money princess?" He cocked a brow.

"How much?" Katara asked nervously.

"Twenty five hundred, I'll take a deposit," Chan's smile grew knowing he would get his way eventually.

Katara fell silent and looked at Ty Lee begging her to help, to not leave her alone in this place. Do something.

"Give me a few, I'll get some of that shit together. You touch her though, I swear you'll be using that money for the hospital," ty Lee growled annoyed as Katara gripped the couch tightly.

"I'll be back soon," she tsked shaking her head and left the apartment with Katara behind.

"Oh my god I'm so fucked," ty Lee whimpered covering her face walking down the apartment halls. She had to get back as soon as she could.
