Sky' s p.o.v.

It didn't take Aang long to return as we neared the gate and tell us about the drill. And as we spoke to the general we learned they had been ineptly taking care of it.

"No one's gotten in before.", he says as he denies our help.

"what about the great fire dragon of the west he broke in.", Toph says.

"Uh yes but he was quickly expunged.", he says

"Those who don't learn from there history are doomed to repeat it.", I say as Sokka puts an arm over my shoulder.

"Ah but I have an elite team of earth benders set to attack right now called the Terra team.", he says

"That's what we need a team name.", Sokka says.

"That's all well and great but unless they can metal bend, or can fight hand to hand there gonna get there but's handed to them.", I say watching as the team approaches the drill as Sokka tries to think of team names.

And as predicted Tai Lee and Mai beat them like there a bunch of kindergarteners.

I look at the leader as he looks nervous.

"I didn't even have to see that to know that but kicking was brutal.", Toph says.

"May I request your help Avatar?", he says as the rest look at me and Sokka.

"What am I the only one that can come up with a plan?", Sokka says.

"Well crazy plans are kind of you and Sky's area.", Toph says "Your the plan people.

"Your the best at these things.", Aang says as Katara nods.

"That's a lot of pressure.", Sokka says

"Katara lets patch up these earth benders, I'm sure something will come as we talk to them.", I say

As we go in Katara questions while I heal them and they explain what happened with Mai and Tai lee.

"Tai lee, she don't look dangerous , but she knows the body it's like she takes you down from the inside out.", Katara says as me and Sokka's eyes widen as I remember and he gets an idea.

"That's it.", we both say together as the rest look at us.

"We'll take it down inside.", Sokka says.

"Because that's where it's weak points are.", I say slamming my fist on my palm.

Soon we're making our way over and infiltrating inside the drill while Toph waits outside.

"You sure.", Sokka says.

"Ya I can't see in that metal thing.", Toph says.

"I can't wait till you invent metal bending.", I say to her as I climb in with Aang, Katara and Sokka as Toph's eyes widen.

"Wait I invent metal bending! Awesome!", she says as we head in.

"We need to locate the braces.", I say as Sokka nods breaking a pipe.

"Why's you do that?", Katara says.

"We need a blue print or map.", I say.

"And when an engineer comes to fix it we'll take the blueprints.", Sokka says.

"So hide then we can freeze him.", I say and we all do Katara and Aang me and Sokka.

He finally appears and I trap him blood bending him while Katara encases him in ice and Sokka grabs the blue prints.

"Thank you.", Sokka says as we look over the blue prints.

"We just need to cut this beam.", he says.

"No Sokka cutting one beam will take to long, we need to cut these beams halfway then we need to crush from the outside.", I say as we reach the first beam.

"Sky have I ever told you I love having a crazy genius for a girlfriend.", he says

"You could tell me a little more often but we better wait till the three of us are done cutting posts before company arrives.", I say as we get to work while Sokka "Encourages."

"Sokka shut up!", Katara says.

"Hey I'm helping by cheering.", he says.

"Sokka I love you and don't take this the wrong way but if you don't shut up I'm gonna turn you into a popsicle.", I say as he gulps.

Eventually we finish the last one as I move just as a knife grazes my hair.

"Hey Azula, you were right it was the Avatar.", Tai lee says "and friends.", flirtier looking at Sokka who gulps while I draw water from the air and send ice knives flying at Tai Lee with a brutal grin. Soon Aang's dealing with Azula as he tries to get out to crush the drill while the three of us deal with Mai and Tai Lee.

"How about I cut that cocky grin off your face.", Mai says tossing a knife at me as I dodge blasting Ice daggers back at her chasing after the others.

"Then I'll still be cute and loveable while your an old sour lady with a hundred cats .", I say as we reach the slurry where Sokka encourages Katara to jump in while I shout "Last one out has spar Toph in a mud puddle!" as I jump in whooping as I slide out and I hear Sokka and Katara behind me as I land and move giving them space as I get ready to bend back the slurry.

"Bend the slurry in!", Sokka shouts as I'm already bending it in when Tai lee tries to come down.

"Way ahead of you babe!", I shout "Toph!"

"Shut up Sokka I'm doing it.", Katara says

"Just bend the slurry woman!", he shouts as Katara fires slurry at him and Toph comes.

"Toph bend the rocks and mud in the slurry so we can plug the hole then when Aang crushes it it'll explode!", I say as she nods and gets to work.

Sokka's p.o.v.

I cheer on the girls as they bend the slurry.

It's my girlfriend whose caught my attention the most as she's focused on the task.

She surprised me when we read the blue prints together, I wonder what else she can do.

Soon we hear the thud as the thing collapses and starts to explode covering the area in slurry as we get away into the walls after destroying the drill.

"My kingdom for a bath.", Sky says and we all laugh as she smiles.

Soon we're all given a chance to clean up before we enter the city as Sky watches the train we're about to get on.

"Welcome to the city of secrets.", she says rubbing her arms completely serious. That look tells me she's expecting something big and bad and it scares her.

"What ever it is Sky, we'll get through it together.", I say pulling her into my side.

"Sokka the magnitude is overwhelming.", she says leaning her head on me.

"I don't know what it is , but I promise Sky I'll protect you.", I say.
