*Metal Cage*

*1st pov*

So this is it huh? Stuck in a metal box with no idea where we are, where we're going, or how we're going to get out of this. Just great, just absolutely perfect! One second everything is going our way, we got the Earth King helping us out, we're preparing an invasion on the Fire Nation, and Toph was supposed to meet her mother and now we've been kidnapped and are being taken back to Gaoling.

(Y): *banging on metal cage* LET US OUT YOU ROCK FACED IDIOTS!

Xin Fu: *stern* Bang all you want. You're not getting out of there until we make it back to Gaoling. Well, at least the girl will.

Toph and (Y): *worried* What?!

Xin Fu: *chuckles* The Beifongs only wanted the girl back, but since we got the both of you, I feel like getting some well deserved pay back.

Yu: *stern* Oh come now Xin Fu. Must you be so crude? Let's focus on getting Toph back to the Beifongs first.

Xin Fu: *scoffs* Fine. After we return the girl, I'll be free of you at least. I can go back to doing things my way.

Yu: *whiny* We've done nothing but you're way this entire time!

Great, not only are we being kidnapped, but I'm gonna be murdered when this is all over. This really is it. I fell down to the floor of cage as I wrapped my arms around my legs as I just sat down and accepted my fate. Toph then scooted over to me as she wrapped her arms around me and held me close.

Toph: *calmly* Don't worry. We'll get out of here..........................somehow.

*Timeskip*

We had been riding for a few hours, and I've tried phase shifting the metal, to no avail, and trying to metal bend, also to no avail. 

Yu: *stern* I believe we need to go right!

Xin Fu: *confused* What are you talking about? the Beifong Estate's this way.

Yu: *stern* I'm quite certain you're mistaken.

Suddenly, Toph began pressing her legs together as........oh no.

(Y): *banging on cage frantically* HEY WE GOT AN EMERGENCY HERE!!!!

Xin Fu: *annoyed* What now? 

Toph: *angry* Will you stop bickering, I got to go to the bathroom!

Yu: *unsure* Oh....uh, okay but make it quick.

Xin Fu: *angry* What's wrong with you?!

Yu: *surprise* Oh, very sneaky, Toph! Nice try, but you can't trick me.

(Y): *worried* No please! I don't think this is a trick!!!

Toph: *sighs* It was. *angry* Let us out of here so we can kick both your butts!!!

Xin Fu: *angry* Quit your banging!-

(Y): *stern* Very poor choice of words.

Xin Fu: *angry* You might think you're the greatest earthbender in the world, but even you can't bend metal.

And with that, the cart continued forwards as I decided to sit back down and wrap my arms around my legs again.

(Y): *sighs* Well, it was a good attempt at least. I guess this really is the end.
