Chapter 3

"Hey, Suki and Katara, do you wanna have a turkey-chicken fight with Sokka and I?"

The two looked at each other and nodded, "Yeah Aang, that sounds fun."

Toph gave them a confused look, "What's a turkey-chicken fight?"

"Oh, it's so fun!" Sokka swam over to her. "It's where you sit on someone's shoulders and fight the other teams, trying to knock them down. Only the person on top can attack. The bottom person is just the legs."

"Oh, that sounds fun!" she grinned evilly, "I'm going after Twinkle Toes first!"

"I guess that means Zuko is going to be your partner." They all looked over at him.

"Huh? What?" he looked up from brushing Appa's fur. "I wasn't paying attention."

"Don't worry Sparky," Toph suddenly hopped onto his shoulder without warning. "I'll explain as we go. Now, mush!"

"Ow! Hey! You're pulling on my hair! Watch it!"

"Well, Excuuuuuse me, princess! What else was I supposed to hold on to?"

"Alright, is everybody ready?" Suki nodded from on top of Katara's shoulders as Aang hopped onto Sokka's back. "Then charge!"

The battle was fierce. Aang and Sokka seemed to have an advantage because Sokka was able to move faster since Aang was so light. However, this also meant that he couldn't put has much force behind his attacks. Toph and Zuko fought admirably, but between his clumsiness, and Toph not being able to see her opponents, they never really stood a chance. Suki and Katara, however, were the dream team. Thanks to Katara's bending, she was able to move through the water much easier than Sokka and Zuko. Plus, Suki had been trained as a Kyoshi warrior, so she had no trouble taking out both Toph and Aang when it came to hand-to-hand combat.

"I want a rematch!" Sokka sputtered as his head resurfaced.

"Nice job!" Suki and Katara gave each other high fives.

"You guys were unstoppable!" Aang commended.

Toph punched Zuko on the arm, "What was that lackluster performance, Sparky?!"

"Ow!" he glared at her, "Sorry if I'm not in my element here! Besides, it sure would help if every time my teammate attacked something, they hit the opposite side, instead of whacking me on the head!"

Toph huffed, "Man, some people will come up with anything to complain about. Come on, I wanna go again!" She quickly jumped onto Zuko's shoulders. "Hey? What's this?"

Zuko stiffened, Toph had just come across a particularly gruesome scar on his shoulder. This was one of many that were shaped like handprints. The rest of the group were at a loss for words. They had been trying their hardest to not look at Zuko's scars once he had taken his shirt off. They were trying to respect his privacy because they knew that if they assaulted him with questions all at once, it would freak him out. They would have to take a more gentle approach if they wanted to get the information they desired.

"This feels like a scar..." Toph continued to rub her fingers across the mark.

Zuko quickly swatted her hand away. "Don't touch that." He glanced up at the others, once again, seemingly expecting them to say something.

"Alright guys, let's go again!" Sokka tried to muster up as much enthusiasm as he could, but even he was worried about his friend.

"Yeah, let's go!" Aang added. They started another fight but this one didn't last nearly as long as the first one. Everyone was distracted. That night, they would be having a discussion.
