Somewhere in the middle of the desert, team Avatar looks in every direction to find Appa. Aang looks at Toph with anger.

Aang: How could you let them take Appa?! ‌ Why didn't you stop them‌?!

Toph: I couldn't! The library was sinking! You guys were still inside and-

Aang: You could've come to get us. I could've saved him!

Toph: I can hardly feel any vibrations out here. The sandbenders snuck up on me and there wasn't time for–

[Y/N]: Aang it's my fault not Toph's.

Aang: It is your fault! You could've stopped them but you didn't!

[Y/N]: Aang I was trying my best to fight them off with my sword but i can't bend anything out here, I couldn't redirect any attacks. I'm sorry but my sword just wasn't enough to stop them.

Aang: That's one crappy sword! It even has burn mark on the case! Shouldn't you have change your sword by now?!

[Y/N]: Don't talk about my sword like that! It's very useful.... to an extent.

Aang: WELL IT'S PRETTY USE-

Katara: Aang, stop it. You know Toph and [Y/N] both did all they could. Toph saved our lives.

Sokka stood there looking around.

Sokka: Who's going to save our lives now? We'll never make it out of here.

Aang angrily walks away from the rest of the group.

Aang: That's all any of you guys care about, yourselves! You don't care whether Appa is okay or not!

Katara: We're all concerned, but we can't afford to be fighting now.

Aang: I'm going after Appa.

Aang uses his glider to fly away from the group.

Katara: Aang, wait!

[Y/N]: Hmph, the audacity he has.

Katara: We'd better start walking. We're the only people who know about the solar eclipse. We have to get that information to Ba Sing Se.

The group starts walking in the same direction as Aang flew off with Katara leading the way.

Sokka: You think if we dig out the giant owl, he'll give us a ride?

[Y/N]: Giant.....Owl?

Zuko and Iroh were riding on their ostrich horse. Iroh "groans in pain" at every step the ostrich horse takes.

Zuko: Maybe we should make camp.

Iroh: No please, don't stop just for me!

Iroh lets out several more "groans of pain". Zuko was clearly annoyed by the performance. As they dismount, the ostrich horse was alarmed by something. Zuko immediately got ready to defend himself.

Iroh: What now?

The Rough Rhinos blocked the road both sides of the road Zuko and Iroh were traveling on. One rhino steps the ground forcefully breaking the surface. Iroh's face clears up as he stands up and places a hand on Zuko's shoulder.

Iroh: Colonel Mongke! What a pleasant surprise!

Mongke: If you're surprised we're here, then the Dragon of the West has lost a few steps.

Zuko: You know these guys?

Iroh: Sure. Colonel Mongke and the Rough Rhinos are legendary. Each one is a different kind of weapon specialist. They are also a very capable singing group.
