Sokka walked up to a little house that was placed within a group of evergreen trees. Mumbling “Girls" to himself, he took a peak inside the building. Inside were the female warriors of Kyoshi Island, as well as Cologne who was watching them. The girls were going through a series of slow motions involving a pair of metal fans.
Grinning, Sokka place his hands above his head and walked into the building. "Sorry ladies. Didn't mean to interrupt your dance lesson." replied the male Water Tribesman with a hint of arrogance. He began to stretch his arms and waist. "I was just looking for a place to a little workout." Sokka then bent over and grabbed his knees.
"Well, Young Sokka, you are in the right place. This is an excellent place to train warriors." Cologne said a hint of humor in her voice.
"I am sorry about yesterday. I didn't know that you were friends with the Avatar." Suki said, her voice proving that she was truly sorry about the capture of Sokka and the rest.
"It's alright. I mean, normally I would hold a grudge, but seeing as you guys are just a bunch of girls, I'll make an exception." Sokka said rather flippantly while continuing to stretch himself as he spoke. Suki turned to look at the elder Amazon for a second. Cologne just smiled and nodded.
Suki spoke, her voice rich in sarcasm, "I should hope so, a big strong man like you? We wouldn't stand a chance."
"True, but don't feel bad. I'm the best warrior in my whole village." Sokka said, still arrogant and sexist about his abilities.
Suki leaned in close to Sokka and smiled. "Wow! Best warrior, huh? In your whole village? Maybe you would be kind enough to give us a little demonstration?"
This stopped Sokka in his tracks. Then as modestly as possible he said, "Oh... well... I mean... I...”
"Come on Sokka. I am sure that the girls would love to see you in action. I am myself curious about the skills of the Water Tribes warriors. Perhaps I will see something else that will remind this old lady of home." Cologne said, looking to the girls that were in the room. The girls giggled and nodded in a way to show that they were interesting in seeing Sokka fight as well.
Sokka walked towards Suki. "Well, if that is what you want, I'll be happy to. All right, you stand over there." Sokka said as he grabbed Suki's shoulders and tried to push her back. But Suki didn’t move something that Sokka didn't notice. "This might be a little tough, but try to block me" Sokka said as he threw a punch at Suki. Suki blocked it without effort then effortlessly thrust her fan into his shoulder. The look on her face was one of disinterest and confidence.
Sokka rubbed her shoulder as he said, "Heh heh... good. Of course, I was going easy on you."
"Of course." Suki said, more to humor Sokka than anything else.
"Let's see if you can handle this!" Sokka said, as he lunged at Suki. Suki caught him under his legs and then flipped him over to the door. Landing roughly on his butt Sokka’s face filled with anger, "That does it!" Getting up he lunged again at his foe. Suki simply grabbed his arms and spun him around in circles, then tying his arm to his foot with his own belt she finally threw him to the floor.
Suki stood over Sokka laughing, "Is there anything else that you want to teach us?" She said as she continued to laugh. The rest of the girls were also laughing as was Cologne. Sokka just blushed in humiliation.
