DOESN'T NEED A CUT. People should know how this works, if not, just follow other people's lead. I'm gonna set up some strategist threads at the top, for the four strategists to use if they want to, otherwise people should start their own threads.

((Mod Note: Since this has been asked a few times, just fyi, the livestock do not talk. Happy hunting!))

[Katara instinctively shifts to place her back more towards Sokka and Suki as she glances around. Still just shadows - what are they waiting for?

Katara tests her bending. So far, so good.]

[markofthewise]

Mmph!

[He worms his way free of Suki's hand and glares at her. But after spotting the shadows, he immediately draws his blade with one hand, his other hand gripping a Bomb-erang.

... and then they come flying in. A dozen at least, some on the ground, some above them on the buildings, and others swooping in from the sky. Looks like it's going to be a party.]

[kyoshi]

[Suki's on the move immediately, spare fans drawn and flung at two of the approaching enemies and striking them head-on. With a flick of her wrist, her shield is up, and she draws the katana Sokka had given her before she charges forward to fight (and hopefully retrieve aforementioned fans, dammit).]

[While Suki starts dealing with the ones on the ground, Katara draws from the nearby river. There's enough water to make things very uncomfortable for the ones sweeping in, and she begins go bend up separate strands of water, hard and fast, to grab them by any too-slow appendage and throw them down, freezing them. She doesn't know how long she'll be able to bend, so she's going to bloody well make it count.]

[The bomb-erang goes flying, hitting one of the TPs head on and putting an end to that one. Not losing any time, he launches himself into a group of enemies, leaving Katara and Suki behind. The way he fights is likely not anything they've seen before. It's quick, brutal, and a constant shift from elegant smooth slices to outright brutally powerful blows. Perhaps more amazing is that he's taking on half a dozen on his own. He could probably take on more if he needed to.]

[kyoshi]

[Suki pays him little attention; as nice as it would be to watch her man at work, she's a little busy facing off her own enemies, and they're strong enough to be troublesome if she's not careful. Especially with her lack of experience with the sword. First course of action is to slash away at the defenses and weaponry of the approaching foes, allowing their own strength to knock themselves aside, using her agility to dart through the ranks and keep them guessing about her location as much as possible. In less than a minute, with her katana pinning a man to the ground, she's retrieved her fans and is back at the top of her game.]

hahahaha /so late, sob

[Meanwhile, Katara continues to cover them from above, using her octopus form to grab Third Party members out of the sky, block what they throw down at Sokka and Suki, and each time she lays hold of one of the Third Party members she constricts her grip, brutally crushing a leg, an arm, a wing before flinging them into a nearby building or hard on to the ground.]
