Kaiakrata: AND... BE-GIN!
Toph: (Waits a moment, then when Bumi merely smiles pleasantly begins an initial attack, gauging his movements)
Bumi: (Dodges every attack with no apparent interest in fighting back)
Toph: Scared of hitting a girl, old man?
Bumi: Scared of hitting an old man, girl?
Toph: (Growls, becoming more aggressive in form)
Bumi: (Continues dodging) You fight very well for one so young.
Toph: You fight well for someone so old!
Bumi: But I'm not even fighting, child! Don't you know that yet?
Toph: Then what are you doing?! You're not even trying to leave the ring!
Bumi: Quite correct, my dear.
Toph: (Begins moving forward while hurling stone after stone in Bumi's direction, circling around in an attempt to clear the ring)
Bumi: Leaving so soon? I was just about to invite you to lunch! I do so love company...
(Bumi's neck muscles flex, and Toph is suddenly thrown backward. Her bending allows her to land smoothly on her feet. They talk as they fight)
Bumi: You're considerably head-on, Runaway, which leaves me to wonder... what are you running from?
Toph: Away from the shadows, old man- into the fight.
Bumi: Yet you spend your time here- evading responsibility- in favor of grouchy old men?
Toph: You're not exactly a cherry blossom yourself!
Bumi: Oh, I gave over seventy-five years to serve my people, but outside of your part in the hundred-year-war, how much time have you given to serving your own?
Toph: I... don't... serve... anyone!
Bumi: Then will you settle for getting served?
Toph: (Enraged, tries a ground-pound, sending a ripple of rock across the ring)
