-NO ONES POV-

Just outside the vast waters of Lake Laogai. Team Avatar has stopped on a tiny islet in the center of the lake. Aang is embracing Appa, happy upon reuniting with him. You are beside the two smiling happy, so happy that sunflowers pop out of your head.

Aang: I missed you more than you'll ever know, buddy.

Momo flies into Appa to hug him too. Appa licks you and the airbender, which causes Aang and youto laugh.

Sokka approaches Katara and Toph.

Sokka: Look, we escaped from the Dai Li. We got Appa back. I'm telling you, we should go to the Earth King now and tell him our plan. We're on a roll.

Katara: One good hour after weeks of trouble isn't much of a roll.

Sokka: We can build on it. If we want to invade the Fire Nation when the eclipse happens, we'll need the Earth King's support.

Toph: What makes you think we'll get it? I don't know if you've noticed, but things don't usually go that smoothly for our little gang.

Sokka: I know, but I've got a good feeling about this. This time will be different.

Katara: Sokka, Long Feng is in control of the city. His conspiracy with the Dai Li is too powerful.

You: [walks to them] I think we should just keep flying and leave this horrible place behind us. It's best if we don't wanna end up in more trouble of our journey.

Toph: I'm with Sweetness. I've seen enough of Ba Sing Se. [Raises arms and opens eyes wide.] And I can't even see!

Aang flies into the shot.

Aang: But now that we have Appa back, there's nothing stopping us from telling the Earth King the truth. About the conspiracy and the War.

Sokka: See? Aang's with me. [Puts his arm around Aang and smiles.] It's the whole reason we came here in the first place. We have to try.

Katara: [Thinks for a moment.] Well, I guess if the Earth King knew the truth, things could change. [Sokka and Aang smile.]

Toph: [Stands up.] I don't trust the new positive Sokka. [Points at Sokka in an accusing manner.] Long Feng brainwashed you, didn't he!?

You: [snickers getting behind toph] He might as well be..

Aang notices a few ships in the lake.

Sokka: That's probably the Dai Li searching for us. [To Katara and you.] So?

The two waterbenders think for a moment before looking at Sokka.

Katara: [Determined.] Let's fly!
You: [nods]

They fly toward the Palace, now with no saddle, holding onto Appa's fur for dear life, especially Toph.

Toph: Can we please buy a new saddle? Riding bareback is terrifying! [Buries face in Appa's back.]
