Momo flies into Appa to hug him too. Appa licks him, which causes The Avatar to laugh.
Sokka approaches you, Katara, and Toph. "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."
"One good hour after weeks of trouble isn't much of a roll." You say, turning to face him. "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."
"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." Toph said.
"I know, but I've got a good feeling about this. This time will be different."
"Sokka, Long Feng is in control of the city. His conspiracy with the Dai Li is too powerful. I think we should just keep flying and leave this horrible place behind us." Katara suggested.
"I'm with Sweetness. I've seen enough of Ba Sing Se." Toph raises her arms and opens her eyes wide. "And I can't even see!"
Aang flies in. "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."
"See? Aang's with me." Putting his arm around the shorter boy and smiles. "It's the whole reason we came here in the first place. We have to try."
You cross your arms and think for a moment. "Well, I guess if the Earth King knew the truth, things could change." Sokka and Aang smile as Katara nods in agreement with you.
Toph stands up. "I don't trust the new positive Sokka." Pointing at Sokka in an accusing manner. "Long Feng brainwashed you, didn't he!?"
Aang notices a few ships in the lake. "That's probably the Dai Li searching for us. So?"
Katara thinks for a moment before looking at Sokka. "Let's fly!"
You all fly toward the Palace, now with no saddle, holding onto Appa's fur for dear life, especially Toph. "Can we please buy a new saddle? Riding bareback is terrifying!"
Burying her face in your back as Appa gets closer to the palace. "There it is! That whole thing is the palace! The Earth King's chamber should be in the center!"
