Beginnings

Republic City, a city built by Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Zuko, it was located on the shores of Yue Bay. It was originally a beautiful city meant to be a safe haven for all the different immigrants fleeing their nations for safety. The immigrants bonded and Republic City was a safe city to raise children. The benders coexisted with the nonbenders and the numbers of benders increased.
News spread across the globe saying that Republic City was the number one place to raise children and to get jobs.
That was years ago when the city was pure and innocent.
Now Republic City was a gilded city, where everyone from the other nations thought that the city was beautiful and full of hopes. Ironically, it was filled with crime, the corrupt and the benders took prey on the nonbenders.
A lot of things changed from when Avatr Aang and Fire Lord Zuko created Republic City.
There were three big corrupt gangs that ran Republic City, The Triple Threat Triad, the Red Monsoon Triad, and the Agni Kai Triad. Each triad had had elite benders that would prey on the civilians for their money and bend the other enemy triads for their lands.
Anyone who got in their way was terminated.

Lightning Bolt Zolt's golden eyes scanned the room at the newest recruits, one water bender, a fire bender and earth bender. All apparently really good at what they did.
He smirked, "Good work pickin' them Shady Shin." The waterbender who was leaning against the wall spared Lightning Bolt Zolt a glance and gave him a brief nod and a quirk of his lips. "No problem boss."
Lightning Bolt Zolt chuckled and looked at the three recruits. "What are your names?" He inquired uninterested. His stance was relaxed but if you looked closer, his muscles were tensed in case of an attack on these new recruits.
He did not trust them.
"You first and introduce your buddies." He barked towards the leader of the new recruits who seemed to be the water bender.
The cool defiant look the water bender gave him make his anger prick up. The newest water bender grinned and with his deep baritone voice replied. "I'm Tahno, the fire bender is Shaozu and the earth bender is Ming."
Lightning Bolt sat down in lofty chair in front of him and told the benders to sit down in the three chairs in front of his mahogany desk. The three benders all took a seat down on the chairs and were tense.
They were ready for an attack at any moment but Tahno remained calm and collected even though his eyes scanned the room every few seconds. His arms were gripped against his mesh pants.
"So why do you three want to work with the Triple Threat Triad?" Lightning Bolt Zolt inquired curiously as he lit his cigar with his index finger and took a deep drag as he waited for an answer.
Tahno took a deep breath. "We're good at what we do. We did freelancing for a while..." He shrugged, "But the pay wasn't good enough for us and we thought we should join a Triad to reek all the perks from being a member."
Lightning Bolt Zolt nodded and then his eyes flickered to Shady Shin, "Why did you bring these recruits to me? Tell me the benefits." He reclined in his chair and Shady Shin nodded from the darkness.
"They are true to their word. They work together flawlessly and they're almost better than most of our recruits and almost on par with her." Shady Shin reported back to his boss. Lightning Bolt Zolt nodded his head and took another puff from his cigar and his eyes glittered dangerously, they had the potential and if they worked with her then they could be the unstoppable Triad and gain more land than they could of.
"Sold then, welcome to the Triple Threat Triad."
Tahno, Shaozu, and Ming looked at each other and grinned but all wondered who she was.
Author's Note: I'M BAAAAACK with a new idea ;) Review to show me how much you want to continue this plotline/story because I don't know if I'll finish it but we'll see on how much response I get for this chapter.
Other side notes: Koraa only knows how to do water bending and there is a different Avatar helping the world. And for the Equalists I have yet to decide whether or not they'll be in the story at this point.
