Avatar: The Other Bender Prologue
"Trouble Maker,"
Deep in the peaceful city of Bah Sing Sae. Nightfall had just taken the city, and most of the inhabitants are asleep. Including the savior of the world, The Avatar. The Avatar named Aang had saved the world from the evil ambition of the former Fire Lord, Fire Lord Ozie. Since his defeat his son Zuko has taken his place as fire lord. However, his son is nothing like his father and has brought back some honor to the fire nation. He does take many visits to Bah Sing Sae to see his uncle and friends. It's been at least two months since the war had ended. Peace had at long last been felt all over the land. As if the planet took a big breath of fresh air. However, trouble is always around the corner. Peace is fine, but a little excitement never hurt anyone.
"Stop the fugitive!" called a member of the Dai Lei. There were three at the moment.
Since Long Feng was exiled out of the city the Dai Lei went through a complete reform. The ones that went with the corruption were exiled or imprisoned. New Dai Lei agents were now patrolling the streets, and this time the Earth King is fully aware of all activities inside and outside the city. Currently the Dai Lei were chasing someone. The endurance level of the person was impressive. For such a short stature to be able to outrun Dai Lei agents is commendable. The person they are pursuing was short.
"Hey guys you still back there? If you are then let's see how long you can stay," the fugitive called back over his shoulder. He took a tight right turn then dashed off. The three Dai Lei agents followed determined to catch the person.
The person in question was questionable. It was a boy, but the age is unknown. His voice is gruff, but doesn't sound natural. He's short as well. He could be maybe, be at the chest of The Avatar. The person in question wore soft black shoes. He also wore a hood that skewered most his face. He also has golden bands around his wrist, and ankles. He had a dark green sash around his waist with an brown outfit. His shirt was short sleeve. It revealed he had brown skin.
He pumped his arms faster and faster. He noticed a stand where goods were sold. He couldn't tell what was sold there because nothing was there, but it did give him an idea.
He ran toward the small stub that held the corner of the stand. The Dai Lei were getting much closer. The boy grabbed the stub then swung around using the corner of the cart as his pivot point. As he came back around he slammed both of his feet into the face of the Dai Lei agent in the front of the pack.
The new Dai Lei weren't as forceful as the old one. The two Dai Lei agents still standing brought out pillars to incase the fugitive. The fugitive was completely surrounded, and it was too high for him to jump out of. The space in between was too narrow for him to squeeze through as well.
"You shall pay for your crimes. You thought you could hide here, and leach off us until you're at full strength again," said one agent.
"Long Feng made some mistakes, but you are definitely the biggest one," said the other.
"You guys trying to butter me up…well it's working!" He said. He began to twirl around in his limited space. A strange field of energy began to gather around him. It was almost invisible. He pushed both his hands out from his left and right. The force that came after was phenomenal.
Not only did he shatter his rock cage, but knock down the Dai Lei agents. All three Dai Lei Agents jumped up. They aliened together then punched out. The Dai Lei like to have their hands and feet covered in rock for surprised attacks most likely.
The person waved his left arm and the rocks shattered against some invisible force. He used his other and stretched it out with an open hand to freeze the shattered rocks in midair. He closed his hand into a fist, and the shatter pieces of rock came together. He sent the rock back at the middle pushing out his left hand. The all moved in one motion and wall came from the ground in front of them. They pushed the wall toward the person. He leaped over the wall. One of the Dai Lei slammed his fist on the ground. The whole area began move uncontrollable. This didn't throw off the other two. They both slammed their right foot over their left summoning a boulder. They kicked out with their left.
The boulders came hurling towards him. He nimbly dodged one, but with his footing so uneven he was struck in the arm with the other. He didn't receive the full blow, but it was enough to cause damage. He grabbed his injured arm. He looked up to barely dodge another boulder. The ground was more stable so movement was easier. However, the Dai Lei were full of surprises. They each summoned a pillar straight from the ground. They all hit him at the same time also trapping him. Two hit him in the back of his shoulders, and the other in his chest. The person struggled as best he could.
"Well, I guess you aren't as tough and scary as everyone says you are. Time to go back to your cage, you monster,"
Instantly when that last word was said the person stopped struggling.
"I'm the monster?" The Dai Lei didn't respond. They began to bring out more pillars to bind him. "I forgot that. Then let me show you what a monster can do,"
The person slipped off the ring on his right wrist. It fell to the ground with a ping sound. This put the Dai Lei on alert. This gave the person a spilt second. He was quickly able to grab his right wrist with his left hand. He forced his hands down, and then gently pulled it up. Certain weightlessness was felt. He then slipped off the ring on his left wrist. The person was able to slip out of his rock prison. He pushed out his hands to his front and back. A great burst of energy was released. If flung everything big or small all over the place. In essence it created utter destruction. The Dai Lei agents attempted to rise from the ground, but they could not move. It was as if a force was keeping them down. The person walked over with his hands flat toward the ground. They were at his waist.
"I hope you enjoy the spirit world,"
He slowly began to bring his hands down. The agents only felt the force intensify. The person kept going. He made it to his thigh, then his knees, and then his ankles. The pain the soldiers were going through was excruciating. His hands were merely inches from the ground. He smiled a devilish smile under his hood. However, before he could touch the ground a rock pillar came from his right. It slammed into his side. He went flying into a wall, and right into his injured arm. He looked to see who attacked him. It was a girl, and from the looks of her eyes she was blind.
"Why are you making all this noise!? Some people are trying to sleep!" she yelled.
The person staggered to his feet. He looked out to see five people, two boys and three girls. From the looks of it they just go out of bed.
"You don't have to do this," said one with an arrow on his head. This was the avatar Aang.
"To survive I must," he responded.
He began to twirl his hands together like a wheel. He pulled both his hands back then pushed out. The five people couldn't see what was coming at them, but the air looked distorted a bit. However, the attack was too big to avoid. The girl and the boy with an arrow on his head raised a rock wall.
The wall shattered instantly.
They all were flung in the same direction. They were however able to shake it off. The person prepared for battle.
"What kinda bending was that!?" asked the other boy known as Saka.
"Whatever it was it was strong," said the girl known as Toph.
The person jumped into the air. He performed a complete 360 then pushed out his right hand. The force ripped apart the ground. Toph raised pillars to deflect the debris. Aang twirled his staff then sent out a gust of wind. The person saw this and in mid air he flew up. That mystified everyone.
"I thought only air benders could do that," Katara said.
Aang jumped into the air, but the person took a nose dive down to the ground. He pasted Aang in mid air. For a split second their eyes met. The person passed them then did one somersault before slamming on the ground. When he did he let loose a massive release of energy. The created a giant boom destroying the entire area. Aang narrowly avoided the destruction. He landed on the ground in front of the person. Aang noticed he was exhausted. His breaths are deep and his chest is heaving greatly.
"You don't have the energy to continue, just surrender and stop all this destruction," Aang hoped he could get to whoever this is.
"I…can't…I wont…never!" he raised his hand.
Sensing another invisible attack was coming Aang used his air bending skill to through his staff to knock him down. He saw the person was exhausted, so he felt he didn't need a heavy attack. The person hood fell off as he fell back. Aang walked over and gasped.
"Y-You're…just a kid!" Aang exclaimed.
It was indeed a small boy, same color as Katara and Saka. His hairstyle was simple, with black color, but strange enough his hair had some white highlights. His eyes are strange as well. It was like a swirling white and black vortex. Aang got closer.
"Who are you?" Aang asked.
With malice in the boy's eye he said simply, "Kutaro." (Cou-Tar-o)
He spun around and with surprising strength kicked Aang's feet from under him. The boy named Kutaro leaped to his feet then leaped out of sight. Aang could only stare in the direction the boy had gone, while on his butt.
