Toph vs Mai (Suki vs Ty Lee Continued) part 2
🕑 Added 2020-12-30 19:42:17 +0000 UTC199.
Suki planted her palms and threw her legs in the air, walking several paces on her hands. Her body gleamed with sweat, polishing the grooves of lean muscle that stood out while she flexed to keep herself straight, pointing her toes towards the ceiling. She counted ten paces then arched forward, stretching out with fluid ease to touch down with her feet, then curl back upright.
Though she was huffing and flushed, the former Kiyoshi warrior wore a broad, almost ecstatic grin. That maneuver would have been nearly impossible for her a month ago, but now that her owner was taking care of her, she was in better shape than ever. And she knew that the improvement would make her owner happy with her!
Continuing the routine, she dropped to the ground and did ten handspring burpees, then twenty cartwheel-to-crescent kicks. She almost fell on the last one due to sheer exhaustion and was really suffering on the last twenty hand-stand push-ups, but she finished.
200 rounds! She was done!
Her legs felt like jelly and her arms still burned as they hung loose from her shoulders, but her eagerness to receive her mistress’s praise was much greater than her desire to catch her breath. She stumbled into the adjoining room with the eagerness of a puppy, her legs alternately stiffening and buckling.
“Mis… mistress!” she panted, “M-mistress!”
Ty Lee was upside down and balancing on one hand, in the middle of her own routine, but when her pet scampered into the room she smiled without a hint of strain.
“Baby Sook-Sook!” She flipped to her feet with the ease of someone getting up from a chair, “What is it?”
Suki hurried over to her, tripping once in her eagerness, but not seeming to notice. The most important thing was to get to her owner so she could tell her what she’d done.
“I…” she staggered to a stop in front of the fire nation girl, “I… d-did 200! All 200!”
Ty Lee squealed with delight and hopped forward to squeeze her pet around the waist, then press a big kiss against her cheek.
“You did all 200?” she beamed, “You are such a good girl!”
“All 200!” Suki grinned ecstatically, “I… I didn’t even… fall!”
“Such a good, good girl!” Ty Lee exclaimed, “The best slave in the whole, wide world!”
Then she leaned in to press a dozen more quick, warm kisses to her pet’s cheeks and neck.
Suki squirmed and giggled foolishly, unable to contain her delight. Her owner’s hand stroked up and down her back, her nose nudging and tickling at Suki’s flushed skin. The work had been hard, but it had all been worth it for the love and attention from her mistress. The former Kiyoshi warrior couldn’t imagine being happier.
The flurry of kisses ended with one on the tip of the slave’s nose and Ty Lee paused to stare affectionately. She drew in a deep breath, then let it out with a happy sigh.
“My little Sook-Sook,” she stroked some hair from the girl’s face, “Your aura is so shiny now!”
Suki let her eyes drift closed, basking in her owner’s touch. She was wearing very little and Ty Lee was stroking over her curves. There was nothing better than this, being held, felt, her mistress’s hands telling her how much she appreciated Suki’s body. Why had she ever tried to fight it?
When the former Kiyoshi warrior opened her eyes again, they looked at her mistress with gratitude, hope, and complete trust.
The door behind them opened with a faint creak.
At the intrusion of another person, Suki shrank in her mistress’s arms, huddling against her as if to hide.
Ty Lee looked over her shoulder to see who it was.
Standing in the door frame was Mai, her arms crossed, looking over the pair of them with flat, unreadable eyes.
“Oh!” Ty Lee beamed, “Hi, Mai!”
“Hey.”
“Don’t be scared, Suki Sook. It’s just Mai. Say hi!”
Ty Lee turned her pet towards the door, still holding her close to comfort her.
Suki reluctantly peaked from her owner’s chest, “H-hi, mistress Mai.”
“Aww, she’s still so shy,” Ty Lee giggled towards her friend, “Isn’t it adorable?!”
“I guess…”
Mai’s response was as cool and apathetic as usual, but her dark eyes looked Suki over thoughtfully. She had in fact been standing outside the door for a few minutes, debating with herself over coming in or just going to Azula. By all rights she should have been to see the fire nation princess already, but she’d still found herself here. And now looking at Ty Lee’s tame pet, she remembered why.
Suki’s body was lean and strong, not the body of a girl that tried to “stay fit”, but that of one who trained for a purpose. It was still appealing and girlish, particularly in a pair of small shorts and a strapless athletic bra, but it clearly belonged to a young warrior. Yet she clung to the girl that captured her like a frightened kitten, afraid to even make eye contact for too long. The only other thing she wore was, most notably, a glittery pink slave collar that Ty Lee had made for her. She hadn’t simply been conquered; she’d been remade.
The thought gave Mai a strange hunger.
“What’s up, Mai?” Ty Lee chirped.
Startled from her reverie, Mai flushed and looked towards the wall, like something on it had abruptly drawn her interest.
“I, uh…” she cleared her throat, uncrossing then recrossing her arms, “I… need your help with something…”
Ty Lee tilted her head, “With what?”
“It’s… complicated,” Mai said, “Better if I just show you.”
“Okay!” Ty Lee chirped, before turning back to Suki, “Go get cleaned up, Sook Sook, then you can have a nap.”
Suki looked sorrowfully up at her mistress, “You… you’re not going to… help?”
“Aww,” Ty lee gave her a squeeze, “I have to help Mai, Suki sweetie. But I’ll be back later. And since you did so well during exercise time, you get to have a cupcake at supper tonight!”
The slave girl brightened considerably at this.
“Now go on,” Ty Lee patted her butt, “Go get squeaky clean!”
At the command, Suki stepped back, bobbed a quick bow to her mistress, then skipped towards the bathing room. She glanced over her shoulder to see if she was being watched before she disappeared inside and closed the door.
“She’s such a happy thing now,” her owner’s voice bubbled with affection, “My aura gets brighter just being around her!”
“Yeah.” Mai watched the door Suki had disappeared into, her thoughts on what it had taken to change the girl so completely.
And, more importantly, if it could be done again.
“So!” Ty Lee twirled to face her friend, “Where’s the thingy you need help with?”
* * *
A pair of voices teased Toph out of a deep sleep, one high and cheerful, the other low, dry and cool.
“So cute! She’s all sleepy headed!”
“Well, I gave her five rock-lizard darts. So… yeah, she’s asleep.”
They were gentle, spoken almost under the breath, like they were around a baby they didn’t want to wake up. Something about them tickled the back of Toph’s mind, though trying to think about it only reminded her how much her head was spinning.
Her senses were greatly dulled, but she felt that she was lying on her back on something soft. Anything too far away from her was just a blur, but she felt two shapes, two girls, looming over her.
One of them combed Toph’s bangs away from her face.
“She’s kinda pretty too, huh?”
The other just hmmed in agreement, leaning close but not touching.
Toph couldn’t claw her way back to complete consciousness, but she was awake enough to be confused, her gray eyes opening to slits.
What… was going on?
“Ooh, she’s waking up!”
“… yeah. We should probably do something about that.”
“Why?”
“Because she could bring the building down?”
“Oh. Yeah, I guess that’s true!”
The cheerier one skipped over to where things got blurry, then began to work on something, humming to herself. There was the clatter of bowls, then the crunching sounds of herbs being ground into powder.
“Where did you find her, anyway? Seems like she’d be hard to catch!”
“Alleyway,” the other replied, “Darts. Caught her napping.”
While the cheery one continued to grind herbs, then poured them into a bowl, the other stroked across Toph’s shoulder and chest. There was a tentativeness to the touch at first, but then it slowly grew more confident, enjoying the skin bared by Toph’s scarlet halter. The strokes grew longer and began caressing as they roamed down her toned arm, then up to her neck.
The sensations weren’t unpleasant, but the boldness of it bothered her. Even dazed as she was, it reminded Toph of her parents’ friends cooing over her, pinching her cheeks, treating her like she was a pet. She groaned faintly in protest.
“St… stoppit…” she managed.
The stroking only grew more brazen. The girl felt over the halter and the budding shapes beneath then down over her tummy. Her hand smoothed across the grooves of her stomach, trying to feel every little muscle at once.
“Hush, earth girl. Losers don’t get a vote.”
From the cheery girl there was the sound of pouring liquid, then the rattle of a stirring spoon.
“Azula’s going to be so happy that you caught her! She’s supposed to be, like, one of the best earth benders, right?”
The touch continued, feeling down over Toph’s hip to her thigh, then slowly roamed back upwards again.
“Azula doesn’t need to know. Not for a while.”
“I know! But still… it’s good news! I’d be super happy if I were you!”
The response was another grunt, the girl tracing a finger around Toph’s belly button.
The cheery girl finished her work a moment later, coming back into Toph’s view with a bowl.
“We’ve got a treat for you, honey!” she said, “Um… Mai? Can you sit her up?”
Toph’s eyelids raised slightly as the name struck a chord. She recognized the voices now and some part of her knew she was in trouble. The memory of how she wound up here was still vague, but she had a good idea that it hadn’t been under her own free will.
Mai didn’t notice the subtle tension in her prisoner’s body as she slipped her hand under the girl’s shoulder, taking her arm with the other hand to pull her up.
Toph groaned in protest, struggling but being far too weak to do anything significant. The movement and the simple act of sitting up made her even dizzier and she could barely lift her hand a few inches, before it sank down. Her head even lolled back and she was unable to lift it; Mai was moving her body more effectively than she could move it herself.
Ty Lee settled down on the other side of her to help, cupping behind the limp earth bender’s head and propping it back upright. With the other hand she brought the bowl to the drowsy girl’s lips.
“You’ll like it,” the older girl smiled brightly, “I put lots of berries in it so it’s nice and sweet!”
Toph seemed barely awake, eyelids heavy and expression hanging, but when the edge of the bowl was fitted between her lips, she managed to turn her head away.
“Nhh… no… gehway…”
Ty Lee just giggled and cupped her cheek, turning her face back.
“Don’t be silly. It’s tasty!”
Then she placed the bowl back to her lips and tilted it up.
Toph’s fingers curled as a smooth, tart mixture of berries and herbs filled her mouth then poured down her throat. She tried to turn away again but was held in place, a few bubbles appearing in the mixture as she gurgled a protest. She coughed, trying to push the bowl away, but though her hand rose a bit higher this time, it still flopped down before it could reach.
“There you go,” Ty Lee cooed, “Isn’t it good? And it’s going to help us make you feel good too!”
“What is it, anyway?” Mai asked.
“Just some magic roots to help her relax.”
“… Magic roots?”
“Mm hmm!” Ty Lee smiled back.
Toph managed to squirm, make some small, whining sounds of displeasure, but she couldn’t stop herself from drinking the mixture. It actually was sweet and it left her feeling tingly as it went down, filling her tummy with warmth. The warmth spread to her arms and legs, settling in a pleasant sensation that made her feel almost like she was floating.
“Nhh… grgl… nah…” she tried to protest, but felt herself floating away, her struggles growing. She knew something was happening to her and her thoughts were even starting to clear, but her body was simply no longer responding to her. Her jaw was growing slack, her “vision” dimming even further, eyelids drooping.
“See?” Ty Lee massaged the back of her neck, “Don’t you feel all warm and relaxed? It’s helping you loosen your chakras, makes it super easy to play with your aura! It’s going to feel soooo good!”
Toph tried to glare at her but could do little more than squint, still quietly slurping down the herbal smoothie.
At the same time, Mai was rubbing her back in slow circles, soothing and coaxing her to keep drinking.
“So, how does this all work?” she asked.
The bowl was finally emptying. Ty Lee tilted it up to make sure the little girl drank it all, then set it aside.
“I dunno!” she cheerfully wiped Toph’s lips with her thumb, “We just move her chi around some, maybe a lot, it makes her aura nicer, and she gets more friendly and sweet!”
Toph coughed weakly, then tried to glare up at the Fire Nation girls. Her eyelids were drooping, one a little more than the other, her mouth hanging ajar. When she tried to speak, her words were husky and slurred, adding to her drunken air.
“When… I giddouda… this gonner… smash’oo both ter… ter a pulp…”
Ty Lee and Mai ignored her.
“What next?” Mai asked.
“Wellp,” Ty Lee bounced up to her feet and pointed, “We take her to the massage table and I show you the pressure point stuff. Wanna pick her up?”
Mai obliged with a small smile, scooping her captive under the shoulders and legs to lift her off the bed. Toph’s head lolled back, arm swinging limply, her rump hanging down like she was lying in a loose hammock.
“Pud…” she tried to lift her head, but only managed to bobble it slightly, “Pud… me down…”
“It’s pretty easy,” Ty Lee continued to the padded table, “I’ll do the big stuff and let you do the other little places. It’s really important you do as much as you can, because we want her to imprint on you, you know?”
“Right…” The other girl replied, still smiling with faint pleasure.
Being carried like this wasn’t making her any less dizzy, but Toph forced herself to ignore it. She struggled to kick, wanting dearly to reach up and yank Mai’s braid out of her head, but her limbs ignored her just like the older girls did. Her arms and legs hung slack, totally useless as she was set down on the massage table.
“Mm… print?” Toph’s attempt at yelling barely raised her voice an octave, “Whad… lemme go…!”
Mai set her down gently, bottom first, then straightening out her legs before lying her shoulders back, cupping behind her head so it didn’t bounce off the table. Ty Lee helped straighten the toned but limp little arms, lying them by her side to make sure she was comfortable.
Once they had her settled, the girls smiled down on her, looking her over in a way that reminded Toph of hungry courtesans eyeing their dessert plate. She fought to lift her a finger, her head, anything, but all she managed to do loll her head towards her shoulder with a faint groan.
Mai and Ty Lee met eyes, Ty Lee blushing and looking like she was about to burst into giggles while Mai’s eyes were lidded, wearing a lazy, mischievous grin.
“So…” Mai’s grin grew a little wider, “Wanna take her clothes off?”
“Well,” her friend tittered, “We kinda have to! At least most of them, so I can feel where the chi paths are!”
“Of course…” Mai drawled.
Toph struggled to move, her eyes opening a little wider. Part of her thought the pair of them must be joking. There’s no way she would let them do that!
“Nah… d-donneven…” Toph tried to protest.
But the girls’ eyes were already darting over her, looking for what to take off first.
“Let’s see…” Ty Lee began untying the sash on Toph’s waist, “This will be in the way…”
Mai undid Toph’s golden hair decoration and simply tossed it over her shoulder before lifting an arm to work off the girl’s wristband.
Toph herself was flushing pink, the color standing out from her pale complexion. Her nose was crinkling up, having to fight back tears of frustration. She’d never felt this helpless, not even before she’d gotten her bending.
Ty Lee got the sash untied and slipped it out from under Toph’s waist with a few gentle tugs, quickly folding it and setting it aside while Mai worked the wristband off the girl’s limp hand.
“Stop…” Toph managed to raise her voice slightly, “STOP—MMF!”
Her eyes bulged as Mai stuffed the wrist band into her mouth, effectively muting her.
“Mai,” Ty Lee frowned as she began working on Toph’s shoes, “That’s not very nice.”
The other girl shrugged, reaching over to pick up the other, muscular little arm.
“She was getting annoying. Shouldn’t we just put her back to sleep?”
“I can’t feel her chi right if she’s asleep,” Ty Lee said, “Hmm, her shoes don’t have the bottoms things. That’s silly.”
She stroked a finger along Toph’s bare foot, eliciting a surprised squeak through the cloth gag.
“Cute!” she giggled and did it again, making the little toes curl slightly, “You know, it’s kinda funny. She’s usually so tough and throwing rocks at everyone and mean and now she’s… she’s… um… like…”
Mai worked the other wristband off and tossed it away, letting Toph’s arm plop back to the table.
“Floppy?” she offered.
“Yeah!” Ty Lee brightened, “Floppy!”
Toph grunted and coughed, trying to spit out the cloth, but even her jaw and tongue were too weak to help her. With nothing else she could do, the little earthbender whined in impotent fury as the girls moved to her halter top and trousers. It wasn’t that she was embarrassed to be seen without clothes—she wasn’t some wilting little girly girl—but the fact that they could take what they wanted like this, undress her like a doll, made her stomach twist with shame.
Ty Lee loosened the drawstring of the trousers and wiggled them down, revealing a pair of canary yellow underwear tied at the sides with string. They were brief and tight, meant to allow easy motion, a few green symbols revealing that they weren’t made in the fire nation. It would have been a giveaway, if Toph had ever intended anyone to see them.
“Ooh, lookit her little panties, Mai!” Ty Lee giggled, “Different from Sook Sook’s. I guess it’s because they’re from different earth kingdom places?”
“I don’t think the earth kingdom provinces have standardized underwear rules, Ty Lee.” Her friend replied.
Toph’s cheeks turned a bit pinker and she yowled from behind her gag, the humiliating knot in her tummy turning over again. Okay, so maybe them seeing her underwear was part of it too.
She was going to make these two SO sorry! She wouldn’t just bring this building down on them, she’d bring the whole city down! As soon as this stuff wore off, she’d show them who’s a cute, floppy little girl!
While their captive fumed and tried with all her might to spit out her gag, Mai rolled the halter down Toph’s stomach, then over her hips and Ty Lee moved around to her front to smooth a hand over her chest.
“Mmm…” Ty Lee smiled broadly as she traced and touched, “She’s sooooo soft…”
Mai had to work a little to get the top out from under Toph’s butt, and as she wiggled and pulled at the fabric she frowned up at her friend.
“Shouldn’t you be doing the chi thing already?”
“I am!” Ty Lee protested, running a finger along Toph’s clavicle, “She’s definitely got some things that are twisted up. Shouldn’t be super hard to fix.”
“Nrhh…” Toph whined under her gag as her top was pulled down her thighs, but as annoyed by that as she was, she was starting to get distracted as Ty Lee began her work in earnest. The girl’s fingers were moving in subtle patterns, seeming to be just stroking but occasionally pressing, sending shivers of strange sensation through her body.
As Mai finally tossed Toph’s top aside, her friend was smiling thoughtfully, placing her thumb and forefinger in deliberate position on the girl’s breastbone, then dug a knuckle into the top of her ribs. There was a barely audible pop and Toph’s eyes widened, her fingers and toes curling.
“You are really afraid to be vulnerable, huh?” Ty Lee smiled down at her, “It’s okay, rock throwy girl. You don’t need to be strong anymore.”
Curious, Mai frowned down at what her friend’s hands were doing, the places they were touching and prodding.
Toph’s chest was covered only by a yellow silk cloth that had been wrapped around her pectorals and tucked tight in the back. Ty Lee placed her finger just beneath the cloth, then traced along a toned groove that led to the girl’s belly button. The shapes of the earth bender’s developed little muscles created a perfect road map to the pressure points she needed. She traced her finger back up the tummy groove, let it press just in the solar plexus, then dragged her knuckle in a small circle on her captive’s sternum.
Toph reacted instantly, her eyes shooting wide and shoulders pinching together with sharp inhale, arching her partially off the table in sheer reflex. She held for a moment then collapsed back down with a gasp, breathing heavily through her nose.
“She’s got lots and lots of energy,” Ty Lee grinned at Mai, “And it’s so movey and swirly! This is going to be easy!”
Toph’s heart was hammering, her chest heaving faster now, her frustrated scowl replaced by wide-eyed shock and fear. She still couldn’t move her own body, but it had reacted to Ty Lee’s ministrations with a mind of its own. The fire nation girls had more control of her own body than she did. Not only that, but the pressure points were causing strange feelings to build inside her, the kind she couldn’t place but knew were wrong.
Noticing her distress, Ty Lee brushed her bangs from her forehead, “It’s okay, little rock thrower. It’s scary right now, but that’s just because you’re not used to being taken care of!”
Toph tried to force the fear and the other feelings away, but it was like flood gates had been opened inside her. Her attempt at a glare was barely noticeable, her eyes staying wide as she felt the older girl begin placing her fingers on different chi centers.
“You should talk some, Mai,” Ty Lee said, “It’ll make her imprint on you better!”
Mai, who had been smiling faintly at the interesting arching of Toph’s compact body, looked up and blinked.
“Uh, talk about… what?”
Ty Lee pressed her thumb into Toph’s neck then smoothed the heel of her palm into the girl’s shoulder, eliciting a faint moan.
“Stuff!” she said brightly, “Reassure her, tell her you’re her owner now… stuff like that!”
Mai stared flatly, “How is that supposed to help?”
Ty Lee lifted Toph’s limp arm by the wrist and pinched at a place below the shoulder, then again and again, working her way down to the wrist while Toph’s fingers twitched and the strange feelings flowed through her.
“Like…” Ty Lee looked to the ceiling, “It sort of… guides her energy stuff. Like tell her it’s okay for her not to be all mean and tough and stuff. Maybe even baby talk to her; Suki likes that.”
“I’ll get right on that,” Mai looked back down at their prisoner, “So, what are you doing, anyway?”
“Nhhh…” Toph moaned, wanting to know the same thing.
Ty Lee lifted Toph’s other arm and repeated the procedure, pinching precise places from shoulder to wrist. Toph’s lashes fluttered as she began to feel light-headed, like she’d stood up too fast.
“She’s used to having her energy going through her chakras on certain paths,” the acrobat kneaded her knuckles down Toph’s chest, “Sort of… keeping down some feelings she thinks she doesn’t need and making other feelings… bigger?”
She frowned for a moment, thinking it wasn’t quite the right word, but then shrugged and continued.
“Anyway, I’m making her energy go on different paths. All those feelings she tried to not have are going to get bigger than the other feelings. It probably feels really funny to her right now, but once we lock it all in place it’ll be like she was always that way!”
Toph’s eyes grew wider. Now that it was being explained, she could almost feel her chi paths being altered, the strange feelings she’d noticed before becoming clearer. Fear, a desire for comfort, a need for approval, to be loved and cared for, everything she thought she’d shrugged off when she left her home to help the Avatar was building inside her, overwhelming her.
Part of her didn’t want to believe it. They couldn’t just… change how she felt with chi blocking and some herbs! Could they?
As if sensing the girl’s growing panic, Ty Lee leaned down and pressed her lips to Toph’s flushed cheek.
“Mmmwah!” she kissed loudly, patting the helpless earth bender’s tummy, “You’re going to be nice and safe, hon. You won’t have to fight in any more wars. Mai is going to take good care of you!” she then looked to her friend, “Help me turn her over?”
As the girls carefully rolled her onto her tummy, Toph was close to hyper-ventilating. Whatever was happening to her was real. Her growing fear of what was happening to her was made worse by the chi manipulation itself. If she didn’t stop them, she was going to become exactly what the fire nation girls wanted.
And she could do nothing. Literally nothing.
The girls flattened her out on her stomach, turning her head so she rested on her cheek and Toph let out a low, fearful moan.
Ty Lee straightened Toph’s legs, thinking something was caught underneath the girl’s hips and making her haunches stick up. She stopped when she realized it was just the shape of Toph’s muscular little bottom.
“Hm! She’s got a nice booty!” she patted the yellow-clad shape appreciatively, “Okay! Now it’s your turn, Mai!”
Mai arched an eyebrow, “My turn to pat her butt?”
“It’s your turn to do the chi changing!” Ty Lee cheered, “So just put your finger right there,” she pointed at a place on Toph’s back, “and thumb right there.”
Mai stared at her with flat skepticism, but finally relented with a sigh. She pressed her finger at the nape of the girl’s neck and thumb right between her shoulder blades.
“Do you feel the chi pocket?” Ty Lee asked.
“No.”
“It’s right there. It should be like a warm bump thingie.”
Toph felt it. It was like a raw spot under her skin, throbbing and growing, threatening to burst. Her heart was hammering, her skin beginning to gleam and become slippery with sweat. Whatever was happening to her was setting her body at war with itself, her chi twisting up as it fought against the new paths it was being forced into. She gritted her teeth, trying to bear through it, maybe force everything back with sheer will.
It was all for nothing as soon as Mai pushed on the little bubble of chi in her spine. Those confusing feelings rushed through her with such violence that her head lifted off the table and she mewled into her cloth gag.
“Ooh, see?” Ty Lee giggled at the reaction.
Mai smiled as well. She had felt it now that the other girl mentioned it, as well as Toph’s response.
And she liked it.
“She’s really sensitive too,” Ty Lee tickled down the curve of Toph’s lower back, “I can already feel her chi swishing around.”
Toph whined again at the sensation, her toes curling.
“What’s next?” Mai asked.
“Oh!” her friend blinked, “You want to touch here and here, then massage out.”
Mai pressed her thumbs where Ty Lee had directed, right between their captive’s muscular shoulder blades, then worked them in slow circles, gently making her way outwards.
Toph’s arms and shoulders twitched and she slowly began to arch despite herself, a low moan burbling from her stuffed mouth. The feelings were spreading through every part of her, especially her mind, sweltering and smothering it. Her eyelids began to droop, a troubled furrow in her brow, the pleasure both delicious and uncomfortable. She could feel she was on the brink of something, a pressure building inside her that her sweaty little body couldn’t sustain. Soon it would burst and she knew it would be cataclysmic, but could do nothing to stop it.
Part of her didn’t want to stop it.
Mai leaned closer as she worked, finding herself becoming enrapt in the way the muscle’s in Toph’s back flexed and twitched, the way her skin gleamed, the low sounds coming from her mouth. Any skepticism she might have had about Ty Lee’s methods was becoming a memory; she definitely saw the appeal now.
She dug her thumbs a little deeper, eyes brightening as it elicited a whimper from the girl beneath her. This earth bending powerhouse was at her mercy, subject to her whims. She could make her squirm with a touch, whine for mercy if she pressed deeper, all that renowned skill and power not making one little difference. It was intoxicating.
But it wasn’t enough.
“What now?” she murmured.
“Wow!” Ty Lee beamed, “You’re really good at this, Mai!”
Mai looked at her sharply, “I said, what now?!”
Ty Lee blanched at her friend’s sudden change in demeanor, the blaze in her eyes. She’d never seen Mai react so intensely to anything before, except maybe Zuko.
“Oh, sorry, um,” she pointed, “You want to hold here, kind of pinch it in place, then push here with a knuckle!” she held up a fist with one finger joint poked out like a spike to demonstrate.
Mai immediately turned back to her work, pressing under the back of Toph’s ribs with one hand, then placing her knuckle like Ty Lee had demonstrated into the curve of her lower back.
“You have to push hard,” Ty Lee explained, “Sometimes you even have to pull—”
Mai shoved down and there was an audible crack.
In the next instant every muscle in Toph’s body contracted and she arched up off the table, head thrown back and eyes wide. Her legs tried to shoot out and curl to her butt at the same time, shoulders pinching together, her bowed position and gaping expression making her strangely resemble a mounted fish. Whatever was building inside her had finally erupted and blasted every thought from Toph’s mind. Her gray eyes rolled back as she stayed locked in that position for several seconds. The ground even shook.
Toph’s throat was so tight she couldn’t cry out, but when the eruption faded a barely audible squeak slipped from her lips. She wilted, eyelids drooping, then sank back, face down to the table, to the table, entirely relaxed, floating in a euphoric after glow.
She finally let out a soft sigh, her eyes drifting closed. The rumbling of the earth stopped a moment later and everything seemed eerily still.
Ty Lee’s eyebrows reached towards her hairline, her lips forming a small O of surprise. She’d expected a big reaction when the chi was locked into place, but nothing that intense.
Mai didn’t seem surprised at all. She took the little girl by the hip and shoulder then rolled her over onto her back. A bright, hungry look was in her eyes as she ran a hand down her pet’s chest, her slippery stomach, over her thighs. Everything was so soft and relaxed now, now tension at all.
She cupped behind Toph’s head and lifted it from the table. The gruff little dynamo wore a dim, silly grin, gray eyes lowered to slits, still conscious but so relaxed that her mind was a million miles away. Mai felt over and squeezed one of her little breasts and Toph’s grin spreader wider, sighing through her nose.
Ty Lee stared as her friend lowered the earth bender’s had back to the table, hand still rested on the sweaty chest, as if to remind the little girl her owner was there.
Mai wiggled the article of clothing out of Toph’s mouth, then stroked the girl’s bangs back over her sweaty brow. Then she looked at Ty Lee with cool, satisfied certainty.
“She’s done.”

Seeing this kind of epilogue for Suki makes me with we saw more of them, such as for the X-men, Kill là kill or Catwoman!
Yeah, it was a bit tricky trying to figure out how to work Mai at first, but then settled on having that craving beneath coldness. Glad to see it came through, it's hard to tell sometimes! You are correct, full-length epilogues are hard and it's possible we will see Katara/Azula at some point, though I don't have a very compelling idea for them yet. Are there any other stories you'd like to see similar epilogues?
Seeing essentially an epilogue with Suki is by far my favorite part, though Mai intensity hiding behind her aloof exterior was also great fun. You always seem to nail the characterizations but Mai in particular stood out. I imagine you avoid writing sequels when the protagonist has already been defeated because there's a lack of conflict so it was great to see an epilogue for a situation like that done well. I wonder if all the fire-nation girls are gonna end up having pets by the end of this. Katara/Azula?

Incredible <3 I love how Ty Lee had a role in taming Toph and how much she broke Mai.

Yes yes and yes! That is exactly what i expected from a sequel! I utterly loved those soft yet controling touches and the banter beyween Mai and Ty Lee, they were both on point it was amazing! Seeing Suki and her Mistress again was just fantastic as it served a well earned epilogue to the original story! Wich makes me wih we see more epilogues like those to other existing stories!
