"So, what kind of trouble is Katara in?" Sokka questions as he and Aang flew over the fields of Ostrich Horses.
"I don't know. In my vision, I just knew she needed help." Aang declares while Sokka grunts.
"It would be nice if your Avatar powers could be just a little more specific from time to time." Sokka grunts as he looks down and notices a mound of earth passing nearby, heading to the wall.
"What is that?"
They fly down and follow the mound. Toph is seen still earth surfing. Aang and Sokka come down beside her.
"Need a ride?" Sokka questions while Toph becomes startled at the sound of Sokka's voice and falls backward off of the mound. Sokka and Aang cringe upon seeing her fall.

Meanwhile with Azula and the Dai Li.
Azula paces back and forth in front of the Dai Li as she gives her speech. "The Earth King and the Council of Five do not trust the Dai Li. They imprisoned your leader, Long Feng. Soon they will turn on all of you and eliminate you. Seizing power today is a matter of life and death. This coup must be swift and decisive. The Earth King and each of the five generals must be taken out simultaneously. Long Feng has placed you in my command while we overthrow the government. If I sense any disloyalty, any hesitation, any weakness at all..." Azula stops right in front of the scarred agent, she sides eye the agent along with the others who stand at his side who look uncomfortable or scared as well.
"I will snuff it out." She glares harshly to emphasize her point, the Alpha continues walking, with the eyes of the now nervous scarred agent following her.
"That is all." Azula dismisses them and the Dai Li leaves and Azula walks up to Ty Lee, who is pouring tea.
"Nice speech, Azula. It was pretty and poetic, but also scary in a good way." Ty Lee smiles as she hands the cup to Azula.
"Yeah. I thought you were going to make that one guy pee his pants." Mai chuckles amusedly.
"There are still a few loose ends. The Avatar, and my uncle." Azula sighs as she sips her tea, nodding to Ty Lee in a silent form of approval while the Omega smiles wider, pleased that the firebender liked the tea.
----------------------------------------------
Back to Appa, Toph, Aang, and Sokka still flying back to the Palace. Toph is holding onto Sokka's arm so she does not fall. "So how did it go with the guru? Did you master the Avatar State?" Toph questions.
"Uh..." Aang looks down and thinks back to what Guru Pathik said before he left.
"If you leave now, you won't be able to go into the Avatar State at all!" Pathik shouts as he chases after Aang. The Alpha hesitates but leaves anyway, leaving Pathik concerned and disappointed.
"Aang, are you okay?" Sokka asks.
"I'm great! It went great with the guru. I completely mastered the Avatar State." Aang smiles while he laughs nervously and looks down.
--------------------------------------------------
Back to the Royal Palace, where Iroh is sitting at a table in a room, waiting for the Earth King. Iroh pours some tea into a cup. Though he raises an eyebrow when he sees Dai Li agents begin to circle around him.
