Republic City at War Well, you wanted the beginning. The whole week had been hectic. First, there’d been an attack on the Pro-Bending arena. I could see the fires from Fang and Kiri’s apartment. They’d been kind enough to allow me to live with them after Fang became Republic City’s poster boy vigilante. Interestingly enough, Avatar Korra moved to Air Temple Island the day I left. Nearly 3 days later, the City was at war. I woke up to the sound of an explosion and shattering windows. I rolled off of my bed and came into a predatory stance. Kiri screamed over in the next room. A body slammed through the wall separatin

6 months post-Blue Spirit Incident How had it gone so wrong? Avatar Korra arrived in the city, and not but a week later, the city erupted into war. What can I say? We were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and people got hurt. Nasumi...Nasumi. I suppose I should start somewhere from the beginning. The only issue is, where was the beginning of my new chapter? Was it when the Fire Ferrets beat my team the Dragon-Hawks? Was it when my friend and teammate Fang became the Blue Spirit? Or was it when the Equalists launched a final assault on Republic City and we found out Amon was really a liar? Right there. That sounds about right. If

Unmasked Republic City's esteemed police chief wasn't too far ahead of me, leaping over the obstacles on the roofs. I sprinted as hard as I could. Lin stole a glance at me and upwards, to the Airship trailing us. "I'm not going to be able to stop, Kano! Not with the Airship watching." She shouted. "You're going to have to beat me!" I nodded. "Will do, Chief. I'm sorry." "I am too." Lin did a frontflip, throwing a wall of earth up behind her. I leapt forward arms outstretched and crashed through the wall. I threw a fireball at Lin hoping to throw her off balance. Just my luck, the fireball sailed past her and into the Blue Spirit. "

You Don't Like Being A Wallflower? After Captain Drago's assessment, home would have to wait. Aralia apparently had a habit of late night get-aways, and avoiding the guards while doing it. I made my way to where I assumed she'd go and waited until long after the sun went down. Almost on command, Aralia, made her way out of the moonlit forest. She was wearing boots with a leather vest and a shortsleeved tunic, with her blonde hair loose. I stood completely still at the foot of my tree. If she wasn't looking, I wouldn't be seen. As expected, Aralia glanced over me and pulled a bow and quiver from a hollow tree stump. Aralia chose an arro

First Meetings I collected the essentials. My longbow, 2 quivers, 2 days rations, and my cloak. Neeson and I made our way down to the stables, where my horse was waiting. "Taros." I said patting him. Taros is a stocky brown paint, with a birthmark on his front left shoulder in the shape of my hand. He whinnied in response, eyeing me. Been a while. The eyes said. I patted him again. "I know, boy. I know." I turned back to Neeson, who had already mounted his boulder of a palomino. "Will you ride with me to Whitefall?" He shook his head. "Sorry, son I wish I could. There have been rumors of something on the north coast. Probably raiders

Reassignment In the dark of night In the cold of winter I fight for the safety of my people I defend the land that I call home Against enemies, local and foreign I am the dawn that cuts the night The flame that warms the winter I am a Ranger from this point forth That was the oath I took 4 months ago. The oath of the kingdom's special task force. After only year of training, the fastest any apprentice has ever become an oathbound. I'm also the youngest, at 17. Since then, obviously finding use for my talents, the King of our fair country of Loria, has added me to the castle staff. Ranger Taeflyn. When I took the Ranger's o

Part of the Job Description I prepared to go to the old waterbender's house, when I decided to take a listen to the police scanner. Instantly, something came up. "All units in the vicinity, we have eye on the Blue Spirit taking on multiple chi-blockers and police officers, on Firelord Way. The street has turned into a battleground, civilians caught in the crossfire." My eyes popped from my head. I sped up and made my way for Nasumi's. I got to the front door of her mother's shop and almost broke the hinges kicking in. "Sumi!" I shouted. I heard the clatter of footsteps above me and Nasumi ran down the stairs. "Kano." She rubbed her eye

Path to the Soul After training until 6, we all went home. Nasumi attempted to get me to go somewhere with her, but I denied. I had practice to do and a lot of things to think about. After getting back to air temple island, I went back to the gates, hoping Ikki and Jinora were waiting for another bout. Instead, a little boy, about 4, was looking at me. "Who are you, strange man?" The boy asked. "I'm Kano. Do you know where Ikki and Jinora are?" "Ikki and Jinora are my subjects, this is my domain! I am Meelo." "Meelo!" Jinora shouted from behind me. I turned. "Kano!" Her tone changed from annoyance to happiness. "Hey!" I waved. Mee

A Job Offer That Really Can't Be Refused We got into the Arena and got changed into work out clothes, tank tops and sweatpants. "What do you say to a sparring session?" Nasumi asked. "You're on." I grinned. We took our spots in the gym and went at each other. Nasumi threw a left hook of earth at me. I dropped to my haunches, coming up into a spinning fire kick. Nasumi dove to the side, coming into a somersault, stomping the ground and jabbing a disc at me. I bent back as far as I could as the spinner whirred over my nose. I came up, pulling my fists close to my face and punching 6 fireballs at her. She double stomped the ground, pulling

The Blue Spirit The 3 of us walked down the street away from the police station in silence. I finally made my decision. "I'm not going to sit at home while Amon makes his bid for the city." "Kano, we should let the police handle it, they know what to do." Nasumi said, grabbing my shoulder. I shook away. "No they don't! You heard Tai, they will have a place on lockdown, and equalists will still figure out a way in. They need someone on the inside." "So what are you proposing?" Nasumi asked. "I'm going to take on the equalists." I said, burying my hands in my pockets. "Kano, you can't possibly go up against them alone." "Then by al
