Takes place after The Boiling Rock Part 2 (B3, C15)

The Gaang was staying at the western air temple after the invasion had failed. Aang and Zuko had just come back from exploring the ancient sun warrior civilization and discovered that dragons still roamed the earth. They were able to discover the true origin of firebending. Now Zuko could finally become Aang's firebending teacher.

"Better,"  Zuko uttered as he was examining the young Avatar's form.

"Thanks," Aang said with a bright smile.

"You are shooting more fire out than before, But you need to work on your firebending stance. You keep going from a light evasive airbending stance to a hard and rigid earthbending stance. You can't just waver between the two. You need to learn to combine them. A firebending stance is like that of an airbender's because you need to be light on your feet and adapt to the situation. It is also like an earthbender's stance because at times you need to stand your ground to let out more fire."

"Wow, where'd you learn all of that Zuko?" Aang said genuinely curious about how Zuko knew so much about all the stances.

"My uncle taught me," Zuko said saddened at the memory of their current relationship.

"He must be a very wise man," Aang said.

"Yes, he is." Zuko, not wanting to stay on the subject of his uncle any longer shot a few blasts of fire at Aang and continued their training. 

Meanwhile, on the other side of the temple, Toph, Katara, and Suki were having a little bit of what you might call a heated discussion.

"So who do you guys think is the most attractive out of all the guys? excluding Katara and Sokka's dad of course." Suki asked. 

"Why are you asking us this?" Katara said a little bit confused about why Suki would just bring something like this out of the blue.

"Well I mean, we gotta do something to pass the time,  We've just been stuck here at the temple for the past few days, and I realized I never really have talked to you two about the guys. And besides, what's wrong with talking about the boys?"

"Ok, I'll admit, you make a pretty valid point, Suki," Katara said laughing slightly. 

"Well for me, I would say Sokka, for well, obvious reasons. Then after that, I don't really like anyone else. But if I was just going off looks, I would probably say Zuko. After Sokka, of course, Suki added sheepishly.

"Zuko? Really?" Katara said a little surprised that that would be Suki's second pick after Sokka.

"Well since you seem to have such a definite opinion, who're the guys you've got your eye on Sugar Queen?" Toph said genuinely curious about what she would say.

"Well, I dunno, with the war going on, I haven't had a lot of time to think about it."

"Oh really now? Well, I would beg to differ" Toph muttered under her breath.

"What did you say?" Katara said hoping Toph didn't know anything about her and Aang.

"Oh nothing," Toph said simply causing Katara to fume up slightly.

"C'mon there's gotta be one lucky guy out there for you Katara," Suki said.

"Well I dunno, I guess Haru was kind of cute when we first met him, But not he's got that mustache and goatee thingie going on, I mean, what up with that?" Katara said.

They all burst out laughing.

"I gotta admit, I'm a little curious about what he thinks he's doing with that style," Suki said while trying not to laugh.
