           "𝙄 𝙛𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙣 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙗𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧!" Suki argued in embarrassment from when Sokka knocked her down.

Sokka points at Suki and exclaims ecstatically, "I got you! Admit, I got you! Rhea, tell me I got her!" They both looked at the amused girl flipping her fan with bending, hoping for her to settle the feud.

"I'm just as shocked as you are, Suki, but he did get you."

The girl quickly got up from the floor and groaned in anger. She grabbed Sokka's pointing finger and twisted it, making Sokka twitch and grunt in pain. Rhea, deciding to have some fun and not be left out of the action, flipped over the two and kicked behind both of their knees, knocking them to the ground in a pile. 

"I win."

The fallen warriors stood up, and all surprisingly joined together in a laugh. They could tell this would be a blooming friendship, and once Sokka could actually throw a proper punch, no army could beat them. 

Suki suddenly grinned at a new idea. "Ok, pupil Sokka, I believe our training dummy Rhea could use some action." A confused what was ignored, Sokka grinned back at her, reading his fans, "I agree, Suki. And no bending, Rhea; this is supposed to be a fair fight."

Finally understanding what they were talking about, Rhea threw her fan into the wall, and it shot out to the other side. She stood still like a statue, arms at her side, and smirked, "It was never a fair fight to begin with."

They charged.

They fell.

They got back up and charged again, getting one hit each, but ultimately they were losing. Rhea critiqued them as they attacked and became the master teaching her pupils. Just as she had 100 years ago. 

Suki thrusts her hand forward, holding the fan, only to have Rhea block it. Sokka tries to do the same, but he is more successful. 

Smiling while impressed, Rhea motioned for them to back up: "Not bad. You two would make a great team in battle. Not that I wouldn't be there too, of course, but I believe you are both getting more agile and quick with your attacks." All three of them bowed to each other before busting into laughter. Sokka smiled back at Rhea confidently when Oyaji suddenly appeared at the door. They all worriedly turned to him, rightfully alarmed.

"Firebenders have landed on our shores!" Suki immediately runs to him while he turns to head back to the town. "Girls, come quickly!"

"Hey, I'm not a. . ." Rhea stifled her giggling, making Sokka roll his eyes contendingly. "Oh, whatever. Let's go Rhe."

"Rhe?"

"It's a nickname, deal with it!" Sokka said as he ran towards where Suki left, with Rhea behind him.

Suki had run right up to Zuko and attacked.

She jumps over a fire blast and tries to attack Zuko from the air, but he turns his rhino. The beast slams Suki away with a mighty sweep of his tail, knocking her down. Zuko shoots a fire blast at the downed warrior, but right before it burns her, Sokka jumps before her and decimates the flames with a sweep of his fan. Sokka prepares to fight Zuko, but before he can do anything, an air nomad jumps off a nearby roof and knocks a surprised Zuko off his rhino; the beast dashes away.
