Toph crawled off of the rock and sat down next to Katara. The bug sized girl tried to run away but she was once again pinned under Toph's foot.
Toph raised her foot and picked Katara up, holding her firmly between two fingers. She then placed her feet together so that the soles were meeting and dropped Katara between them.
With Katara stuck between her giant soles, Toph began rubbing them against each other, rolling Katara all over her feet.
Thanks to her amazing sense of touch, Toph could "see" every little detail of Katara's body and feel even the slightest move of her muscles as she struggled to escape.
Toph moved slowly and methodically, moving Katara from heel to toe and back again. With great care, she took Katara once to each of her toes until the tiny girl had stopped struggling. She then picked her up and placed her on her massive hand. Katara tried to stand up, but all that being rolled around left her tremendously dizzy so all she managed to do was fall down between Toph's fingers.
"Well?" Toph smirked at her little friend's lack of coordination. "Learned your lesson yet?"
Katara stood up slowly and, seeing how she war close enough for Toph to hear her (so she hoped) took this chance to give the girl a piece of her mind.
"Are you insane!?" she yelled at the top of her lungs. "You could have killed me down there! Do you think this some sort of game? And what are you smiling at? This is serious, Toph. I'm the size of an ant here, we should be trying to figure out how to get me back to normal, not playing around like I'm some sort of doll."
"Oh, lighten up, will you? I would never have killed you; I'm too in control of my body to ever do that. And hey, being ant sized can't be that bad. I mean, at least you're not flea sized, right?"
Katara was about to replay when she felt her body seize up again. She loked on helplessly as the world grew bigger and bigger around her until she was small enough to fit snugly in the grooves on Toph's hand.
"I take it back." Toph was really worried now. Katara was almost too small to make out with her sense of touch. She felt like little more than a grain of sand now. "Okay, don't move from where you are or else. I could lse track of you if you do."
Toph thought back to the first time Katara had shrunk. That had happened right after she compared Katara to a fly, and she had ended up roughly the size of a fly. The seconds time, she'd said the words "flea sized" to Katara and now she was the size of a flea. Could it be that she was the one responsible foor shrinking Katara?
Lookind down at Katara, Toph said "Ant size" and waited to see if anything happened. Sure enough, Katara grew back to a quarter inch just a couple seconds later.
Now that she understood that Katara's shrinking was caused by her, Toph...
