    It's been a while since Toph decided to roam the city at night. Today was a good day of training and she figured she treat herself since she beat up every last student again with ease. With no hands.

    In her down time at the temple, she's been hearing murmurs about this "legendary" and "undefeated" underground street fighter. Naturally, she had to find out herself.

    After roaming around for a bit, she could finally hear commotion underground near the outskirts of the city. If it weren't for her seismic sense, she would've drilled a hole in the ground and completely missed the secret entrance just ten feet away from her.

    There wasn't any music. Just cheers and jeers and it didn't take rocket science to figure out it was a really big crowd.

    But some of these comments...weren't about the fight.

    From "Beat hiss ass!" "No mercy!" "My money's on the tall one!"

    To "Don't hurt that pretty face!" "They are so hot..." "Finish me next!"

    Just what is going on here?

    "And the winner is...The Skipping Stone!"

    3/4s of the crowd cheered while the rest groaned and tossed their coins into the pan. After a while the chatter died down and people started to file out. Most with grins on their faces as they counted their added funds.

    Now, it was just you two.

    After safely securing your prize money in your bag you stretched and wiped yourself down so you wouldn't be all sweaty and disheveled when going back to the surface. Then, you felt a pair of unrecognizable footsteps approaching from behind before you even looked.

    "I know you know I'm here," she said, stopping a few feet behind and crossing her arms. She could only get so much information from the outline of your body and wondered not only if you were as good as people said you were, but also if you were as attractive as some have expressed back there. She can't help it, her curiosity gets piqued when it comes to a good challenge and a potential hot person.

    You turn around fully with a raised brow. Is that...

    "Toph Beifong?" You said aloud. Complete disbelief. But it wasn't from being star struck, you just genuinely wondered why she'd be here or how she even found out about this place. "What are you doing here-"

    "Normally I jump at the opportunity of a crowd, but," she began as she cut you off and backed up only a few inches. "I wanted to get a feel for what the fuss was about." She added. "Show me."

    The true test. Can a highly contented street fighter keep up with THE Toph Beifong?

    Let's find out.
