The moment she lost consciousness, I extended my awareness to the rest of the room and was not surprised to note that Toph had dispatched the vast majority of whatever Dai Li agents had escaped my attention. In the middle of all this stood Long Feng and his General. Said General was glaring at the man even as the man seemed to be almost awestruck at the events that had unfolded before him.

I began walking forward, but the woman just raised both her hands and went to her knees. “I am General Kali, daughter of General Lin, Granddaughter of King Bumi of Omashu. I surrender myself into your custody.” She said, and I nodded. Even during war, there were some niceties that had to be observed among nobility, and even shocked as I was about her alleged identity, I could not deny her said niceties.

“Toph? I think metal chains will do for these two” When Long Feng similarly went to his knees. She slammed her foot against the wall, and with more concentration than I’ve ever seen her use in her bending before, she dragged her hands backwards and the chains followed her movement, wrapping around Kali before moving to Long Feng. In a series of movements that belied his age, he pushed himself backwards into a roll and began to flee the room. I sighed and shot through the air, moving after him.

He barely managed to make it three steps away before I landed right upon him, smashing his body into the ground. “Where the hell do you think you’re going, Coward?” I asked, and I felt him swallow beneath me as he felt the heat of my body above him.
