"You know you're overdue by two weeks," the police man said menacingly to the teen that he had pinned against a wall, "if I don't get that money soon, well let's just say your father will find out something about his son that isn't flattering."
Zuko let out a scoff from where he was, like he really cared what his father thought. But he couldn't risk his mother's safety. The cop banged his head against the wall.
"Are you even listening, you little asshole?!" Zuko just nodded. "Good, I expect the money in three days." With the threat being done, he released him and walked away.
Zuko brushed off his clothes. Looks like I'll be late tonight, he thought.
After exiting the alley, he pulled on his mask. It was blue and white, it was meant to look like a demon from ancient legends. He shook his head to clear the thoughts; he needed to concentrate on the job ahead. In the morning there would be a headline breaking in, and it would be yet another attack from… The Blue Spirit!
Grinning behind the already grinning mask, he quickly and expertly jumped from roof to roof, towards the bank.
