Well here's the last one.
As I promised allot longer.
Aw no more Toko week.
"Uh Sparky I think we have a problem." Toph said.
"And what would that be?" Zuko asked leaning into the wall.
"We're being watched. And I'm pretty sure in a few seconds.." Toph was interrupted by the sound of charging as bounty hunters surrounded them.
"It would only make sense for the traitor prince to harbor The Runaway." one scoffed.
"We'll see how much sense you can make knee deep in earth." Toph said shifting her feet to stance. But before she could attack a chain hit her side pushing her into the wall. "HEY!…" she began to cuss as a hand pulled her away.
"Survive for now, make fun of later." Zuko said pulling her in front as he shot a wave of fire at the group that followed. Most subsides but a few through the smoke.
The two continued to run, keeping a safe lead. "Zuko watch out!" Toph yelled just in time for the two to get down and miss the stilettos headed for them. They scrambled up and turned the corner.
"It's a dead end" Toph confirmed. "And they're coming" she added.
"Can you see on wood?" Zuko asked
"No, but why would we…" Toph was interrupted by being scooped up. Zuko began to climb the side of the building.
"Then for now you'll have to trust me" Zuko said as he dropped Toph on the top and grabbed her hand.
"Will do. Now exactly how far up are we?" Toph asked.
"On top of a building. I really didn't count steps." Zuko said sarcastically. Thy ran, still being chased until Zuko awkwardly said "Toph we're gonna need to jump to the next one, like now."
"What the…..what if I fall" Toph stood like a rock.
"Possibly fall or be sent to Azula" Zuko offered. Toph nodded and grasped Zuko's hand as they jumped. They were short but Zuko managed to grab the ledge.
"Zuko!" Toph yelled holding his hand for dear life. The group of men chasing them stopped at the ledge and readied there weapons.
"Toph we have to drop" Zuko informed. "It's fairly soft under us. I think I can get you down first."
Toph gulped but nodded. Zuko dropped a bit lowering Toph and they shot and he dropped them both. Toph screamed at they fell through the air with a harsh landing. The two got up and were on there way before more attacks could be launched at them.
They turned again and ran into a building, stopping for a moment to catch there breath. Toph rubbed her arm. She had sprained it in the landing. Zuko injured his leg as well. Zuko peered out a hole in the wood until he was sure it was quiet.
"We're good" Toph confirmed.
The two went back to the gaang after that.
"Next time your going shopping Sugar Queen" Toph scowled angrily.
"And why is that. It couldn't have been that bad." Katara commented.
"It might help to not send people with high bounty prices on them into a market against there will." Zuko said before Toph had the chance.
"Right I forgot the whole banished prince thing." Katara said blushing.
"Wow. Katara in the entire four nations you're the first." Zuko said sitting near them.
"Ya and you did get me arrested for the gambling thing once already!" Toph yelled.
"I'm gonna leave now." Katara said.
"Uh huh, you do that." Toph said laying down.
"Katara's an idiot." Toph commented.
"I was sure that was Sokka's job." Zuko said grinning.
"I've heard family rubs off." Toph said.
"Well I guess we broke that theory." Zuko commented nearly laughing.
"Eh we break allot of theory's." Toph said shrugging. "That's not a bad thing though. Not bad at all."
