Everything always looks perfect from the outside. But the inside confliction is always overlooked. But Aang could just feel it. That darkness, the pain waiting to happen like a looming doom. Suki had this look of dull, sad pain. Sokka was trying to figure out what was wrong with Suki, making him nervous, his girlfriend was never like this. Toph was almost, upset about something. Katara was lost in a difficult thought. Zuko and Azula were whispering about something and Mai was angry. Well, that doesn't sound different but she seemed to be mad at Zuko, she held her head up high and avoided eye contact with him. Only Ty Lee seemed happy, but also confused. "Guys, what's wrong?"Ty Lee finally had to ask.

"Oh, it's nothing!"Mai responded sarcastically, "It's not like somebody lied to me!"

"Oh, I'm sorry if not everything is your business!" Zuko responded

"It is when you lied to me! After months of pulling away!"

"It's more complicated than that!"

"From my perspective, this is what happened, you slowly start to pull away, tell me less and less. Then one day you tell me that you and your sister are going to a movie. Then I get a call from Suki, telling me that she saw you visiting your dad while she was with her uncle, the warden at the prison."(I know that in the show Mai's uncle was a prison warden but this was the best I could do)

"Listen if I told you, you would have tried to stop me."

"Because it was a bad idea!"

"Maybe we are a bad idea!" This caused an uncomfortable silence between the group.

"Anyone else want to put their issues out into the open, Katara?"

"My Dad just... left. And now he's back and I don't know how to feel."

"Talk to him."

"Thanks."

"Alright, Toph, shoot."

"Just some jerky kids telling me I'm ugly." Katara put her hand on Toph's shoulder and confirming that she was in fact beautiful.

"Now, Suki?"

"No"

"Come one, it's making Sokka upset."

"Well, I'm sorry Sokka but my internal turmoil is my business and my business only."  She had to laugh at her use of "Internal turmoil" but her happiness ended there and she went back into her depressive state of mind, which worried Sokka.

"Please." He murmured

"Fine!" She exclaimed, "You know how I've always wanted to join the army."

"Literally, since the day I met you."

"Well, my mom is in the military, and yesterday I found out she well, died."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I know how hard it is to lose your mother.: Sokka said. The silence at their table was solum. This was one weird lunch.
