"But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
And I know that it's hard to digest
A realization is as good as it gets
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets"

"Hey, you guys picked a great campsite. The grass is so soft." Toph's feet are in the pile of white fur

"That's not grass. Appa's shedding."Soka says

"Oh, gross!" Katara exclaims

"That's not gross; it's just a part of spring."

A blue bird lands gracefully on his head and a yellow butterfly flutters by his right ear which Momo jumps up in an attempt to snatch.

"You know, rebirth, flowers blooming, and Appa gets a new coat!"

"Ah, the beauty of spring. Stop, Appa, stop!" Katzumi yells. Appa, sticks his tongue out to reveal it's covered in fur, sneezes, blowing fur everywhere.

she coughs, and waves her arms to stop Appa from covering her in hair even more.

" It's not that bad, girls. It makes a great wig!"Sokka stands to reveal he has piled the fur on his head to form a tall pillar of hair

And a great beard!" Aang has arranged the fur on his face to form a large mustache and beard.

Sokka and Aang point and laugh at each other.

Katara is not smiling and begins to whip the fur off her sleeve.

"I'm just glad we finally have another girl in the group because you two are disgusting."

Aang and Sokka are both slightly hunched with one arm over the other's shoulder.

"Excuse me, does anyone have a razor... ...because I've got some hairy pits!" Toph lifts both arms to reveal a mass of white fur emerging out of both of her sleeves, under her arms

All three of them laugh until Aang gives one of his powerful airbending sneezes, thrusting him backwards into Appa's leg and then falling face down on the ground. 

He lifts his head to reveal his beard and mustache are gone but he now has a large mass of fur sticking jaggedly up on his back. All three begin laughing again.

Katzumi join in, and soon Katara's disgusted face turn into small giggles


" I don't understand. What's the problem here?" Toph asks. The two aren't seeming to get along. 

"Never mind." Katara walks away as Toph earthbends herself back into her tent.

"I think you should apologize"Katzumi said floating out some sleeping bags and rolling them up

"Me? Apologise to her?" Katara asks

"Yes. even though as crazy as it sounds. Toph is just trying to adapt to the new lifestyle. Give her some time" Katzumi explains. She was right. Katara was a little pushy, and Toph was only 12 after all

Katara places down her pot of water and looks over to Toph by her stone tent. Katara walks over to her.

"Hey Toph, I wanted to apologize for earlier. I think we're all just a little tired and getting on each others' nerves." Katara says hoping for a good response

" Yeah, you do seem pretty tired." Toph said

"I meant all of us." Katara said aggravated

"Well, goodnight."
