A/N: Inspired by a random picture I saw somewhere. Not entirely sure where. Trying to update my other stories. Having trouble with ideas for them.

Disclaimer: Nope.

Toph snickered as the new kid was walked in. She was a resident at the Earth Kingdom Psychiatric Ward. There everyone was thought to be crazy. But they knew the truth. They were put there because they were dangerous to the order of things. Benders had died out years ago. Now they were the only ones left. Though no one was supposed to know that. She was an Earthbender who could see through her feet since she was blind. Hence why she went by Blind Bandit.

The other residents were odd. Though not all of them were benders. There was a guy who went by Wang Fire. He didn't bend but he could handle a boomerang and sword pretty well. There was another guy who went by Freedom Fighter who worked with dual sword like things. He normally hanged out with Longshot, an archer, and Smellerbee, a fighter. Then there was Blue Spirit. He worked with dual swords and was a Firebender.

Then there was the other girls. There was one called Kyoshi Warrior who worked with weird fans. Another girl was called Phoenix Princess and she was crazy. She was a Firebender and seemed to have problems with Blue Spirit. She had two lackeys. One was called Circus Girl and the other Knife Girl. Not the most original names but it told the basics. The first one was as flexible as an acrobat and could disrupt your bending through chi-blocking. The latter was skilled in throwing knives and being gloomy, she seemed to like Blue Spirit. There were two other girls. One was called Moon Princess and was a non bender with a connection to the moon spirit. The last was called Painted Lady and she was scary. She was a waterbender, healer, plant bender, and bloodbender. Basically if it had water then she could bend it. But she had a motherly quality about her and would defend the others if need be.

"Hi. I'm Aa-" the new boy started

"Don't tell me your actual name. We don't use our actual names. They can't know them." Toph said

"Okay then. Call me Avatar. I'm an Airbender." Avatar said

"Cool. I'm an Earthbender. Call me Blind Bandit. You're going to want to tread carefully. Most of the people here will ignore you. They're nonexistent background characters. Though some people will mess with you." Toph explained

"Okay. What should I do then?" Avatar asked

"Be quiet. Stay out of the way. Don't get in trouble. And don't be stupid." Toph said

"Hello Blind Bandit. How are you this lovely morning?" Wang asked

"As grumpy as yesterday. Avatar this is Wang Fire. One of our resident crazies. He's good with a boomerang and a sword. Wang this is Avatar. He's an Airbender." Toph introduced

"Hello young man. How are you today?" Wang asked

"Great. When do I get to meet everyone?" Avatar asked

"Now, now young man. That's not a very good idea. These people are very volatile. They can seem caring but they're very dangerous." Wang said

"See? You don't talk to the others unless they talk to you. Especially since you're a newbie." Toph said

"Well children. Its lunchtime." Joo Dee said too happily

"Wake up Bandit." Painted said

"What do you want Painted?" Toph asked sleepily

"We're getting out of here. I want you to come with us." Painted said

"Who's going?" Toph asked

"All of us. I'm sticking with Wang, Avatar, Spirit, Wang, Kyoshi, and Moon." Painted said

"What about Fighter, Longshot, Smellerbee, Phoenix, Knife, and Circus." Toph asked

"They're going somewhere else. We're all breaking out together. Though we'll be separating eventually." Painted said

"Okay. Let's go then." Toph said

Painted spun around in her flowing robes. Then she drifted across the floor to the door. It sprang open as she neared it. Spirit was standing outside with Wang, Kyoshi, Avatar, and Moon. Spirit glanced back at the two girls and waited for Painted to nod before running off ahead. Painted drifted behind them and kept an eye on Toph. Watching for any reactions since she was able to sense vibrations through the ground.

"Tell me if you feel anything." Painted whispered

Toph nodded at the order. She knew that if they had any chance of getting out of there alive it would be Painted and Spirit. They seemed to know the most. So they were the best people to have on your side. Then she felt four people coming down the opposite hallway. She tugged on Painted's arm and the girl stopped everyone else.

Painted drifted forward and pulled the people into the light. It was four boys. One was in a wheelchair, one was just a young kid, another was an older kid, and the last seemed to be about Painted's age. Painted dropped them as she saw who they were. She apparently knew them. The one that looked about her age opened his mouth to speak but she shook her head. He followed the silent command and they joined the small group heading for the doors.

"Where do you think you're going little Waterbender?" Joo Dee asked darkly

"Far far away." Painted said forcing Joo Dee to stop and fall to the ground

"Keep moving." Spirit said

They had finally made it out of town. Once they had decided they were safe, they all stopped. Spirit and Painted were slouched next to each other. Wang had an arm around Kyoshi and Moon. Avatar was slouched next to Toph. The four boys were sitting next to them. The other groups sat slouched in their own groups.

"So where do we go from here?" the small kid asked

"You're sticking with us. We're going to find somewhere safe to stay for awhile." Painted said

"We're going to go find my father." Phoenix said

"You're going to Father? He sent us here." Spirit growled

"Well I can help him obtain his goal. Unlike you." Phoenix sneered

"Silence. We'll move out in our groups. Come on." Painted said
