The first day

"Man what took you so long Sugar-queen?" Toph asked Katara as she ran up next to them at the bus stop. They all took the same bus since Sokka's car was in the shop. They found it easier seeing as how their school had the grades K-12 in other words a joint school.

"Sorry Toph I had to run all the way from the other end of the school! It's not as easy as it looks." Katara huffed. Her brother Sokka started to run in place. "Shut up Sokka!" he smiled a big toothy grin.

"Hey have you guys heard of that new student that just moved here from California? They just got him all set for tomorrow." Aang said to his companions.

"I heard his name was Zuko." Katara said.

"I heard that his sister is like totally crazy and they had to put her in the loony bin." Sokka said in spooky voice that wasn't as spooky as it was funny.

"I heard that when he was 10 his mother died." Aang said lowering his head.

Toph then added "Yeah well I heard that she died in a fire and his father blamed him for it. So in retaliation he burned his son on the face. He was taken out of his father's care after that and moved in to stay with his uncle."

"T-that's awful." Katara said quietly.
