Guys! This is the last chapter :O I guess- maybe if ya'll want, I can do a sequel. But for now, this is it. I really hope you enjoyed it! I think this last chapter wrapped up pretty good. Kinda dramatic, but good. I did less 'Time Passes' as a request from someone. It was pretty obnoxious. Thanks for reading! Enjoy!


The two young adults sat outside and waiting for the arrival of their friends. Toph had been silent all morning; she now sat with her knees pulled tightly to her chest.

"Smile" Sokka said as he reached to hold her hand.

"Why?" She asked glumly pulling her hand away. Sokka look at her sadly. He pulled his back to himself and sighed.

"Because Toph, I don't like seeing you sad."

"I liked being able to see." Toph said randomly running her fingers through her hair.

"I know you did babe." Sokka said as he pulled Toph to his side. He kissed her ear softly, and starting kissing down her neck. She lifted her head and kissed him. Their lips brushing each other's. The kiss became more passionate and Sokka finally pulled away to take in a breath. Toph leaned forward wanting more.

"They're here." Sokka said pulling away.

"Who is?"

"Aang and Katara." Sokka jumped up and started waving his hands. Toph then felt the hard vibration of the bison landing on the earth. Toph sighed and turned away and started walking back to her tent. She crawled in through the opening and lay down on the plush sleeping bag. She inhaled the smell of Sokka and closed her heavy eyelids and let the sudden feeling of nausea take over.

"Sokka!" Katara yelled as she jumped down to greet her brother.

"Hey!" Sokka replied giving his younger sister a friendly hug.

"We missed you guys…?" Katara said slowing down on her last word and looking around, "Where's Toph?" Sokka looked at her with sad eyes and rubbed the back of his neck. He nodded towards the tent signaling her location.

"Is she okay?" Katara whispered, Aang came up and stood beside his girlfriend waiting for an answer.

"She lost her, uhh, sight." Sokka said looking down at his feet.

"Oh no." Katara said twirling her hair around her long, brown hair. She let out a small sigh and walked slowly to the younger girl's tent.

Katara kneeled down outside the opening of the tent and tapped on the floor.

"Toph?" Katara said opening the flap of the tent slightly. No answer.

"Toph?" Katara said patting the earth even harder.

"Is she in there?" Sokka asked curiously walking up behind Katara.

"I think so."

"Toph!" Sokka said opening the flap of the tent and crawling in. Almost right after he entered her crawled back out on his knees holding the small girl in his arms. She was pale, and cold, and fell loosely in his arms like a ragdoll.

"She's not breathing!" Sokka cried as he stood up burying his head into her chest.

"What?" Katara said frozen in shock.

"SHE'S NOT BREATHING!" Sokka said cradling his young love in his strong arms. Aang ran from where he was standing next to the bison. He quickly bended a bed just large enough to lay the sickly girl onto.

"Bend air into her lungs." Katara said as she bended water onto the pale girl's forehead. Sokka ran from the sight when he saw the Avatar starting to bend water into Toph's lungs.

"Sokka!" Katara yelled turning to see her brother run into the vastly wooded forest. She continued to try to revive Toph. She ran to the creek nearby to get more water. She ran back up to their camping area to find Aang had stopped bending air into the girl's chest. He was sitting on the bed with her. He had his arms propped up on his knees and his calloused hands were holding his head.

"Aang?" Sokka asked stopping midst in her tracks. Aang looked up with tears running down his cheeks. He was gasping for air in between sob. He shook his head and then turned back towards Toph and held her cold hand.

"No." Katara said dropping the pail of water. She ran towards the two and checked Toph's pulse.

"Oh God… no!"

"I couldn't do any more." Aang whispered standing up.

"Sh-sh-she was so young" Katara said as she shook with tears.

"I'll go get Sokka." Aang said trying to regain his breath.

"Oh Toph," Katara said rubbing her hand over her now freezing arm. Katara walked over to the dark tent that suddenly seemed darker than usual. She grabbed a blue knit blanket and walked slowly back over to the young, deceased girl. She bit her lip to try to refrain from breaking down once again. She closed her eyes as she lay the soft blanket over the forever sleeping girl.


Sokka walked back slowly. Katara ran up to her puffy eyed brother and held her brother before he gently pushed her away. He continued shaking as he walked towards the small frame covered in the blanket.

"How?" He asked kneeling down.

"Did anything happen while we were gone?" Aang asked looking away.

"No." Sokka said as he began to cry again.

"The treatment?" Katara asked double checking the young girl's wrist. She thought she felt a small beat. Katara stared down at her wrist.

"Kat-" Aang began but stopped when Katara swatted blindly behind her shutting him up. Sokka looked up from his lap to see the blanket over the small frame lift slightly.

"Katara." Aang said this time more enthusiastic. Sokka reached over Katara and ripped the blanket off of Toph. Katara quickly reached for the slowly warming wrist and checked for a pulse once again. She started crying when she felt the slow, but surely there, heartbeat of their beloved friend.

"Toph?" Sokka whisper as Katara scooted out of the way. "Please, come back." Sokka said lovingly as he pushed her bangs out of her pale face. Toph let out a deep raspy cough and gasped for air.

"TOPH!" Aang said running towards her. "Thank the Spirits!" Aang said letting out a high pitches squeal. Sokka picked the still slightly unconscious girl up and cradled her in his arms like they always did. Toph took one more gasp and opened her eyes.

"Sokka." She said quietly reaching up for his cheek.

"It's me." He said kissing her on the forehead, then the cheek, then her nose, and finally her lips.

"You saved me." Toph said smiling slightly accepting his tender kiss.

"No Toph." He said brushing her hair out of her face again "You saved you."

"What?"

"You're that strong babe."

"Oh shut up Snoozles." She said with a serious face, and then she let out a cute chuckle "I'm kidding."

"I wouldn't let you leave me anyhow."

"I know."

"I missed you."

"I missed you too." Toph said sitting up in his lap. She ran her fingers over his chest.

"Come on guys," Aang said laughing from behind Sokka "Get a room."

"Shut up Twinkletoes." Toph replied with a smirk on her face.

"Hey Sugarqueen?"

"Yes Toph?" Katara asked worriedly.

"How about you and your boy run off." She said smiling signaling for them to 'shoo'

"Our pleasure." Aang said grabbing Katara waist and leading the two of them off towards the creek.

"I really glad you're, you know, 'back'" Sokka said kissing Toph once more.

"Me too. Blind or not. I'm just happy to be with you."
