Chapter 1: Beginnings
If she were here, she would tell you that bending brings balance to the world. Amon rambled. Korra nudged mako and whispered Let's go, we need to find your brother. they slowly and discreetly weaved through the crowd towards the back. Korra, what are you doing? They come up to an alley on the side of the stage. I'll get one of the people behind the scenes to find out where Bolin is. She called out to the man they met at the front entrance as the crowd cheered. I'm Dreadfully sorry, but could we ask you something? the lackey paused. Maybe I should play along Of course, how could I be of service? Mako nodded. I'm here looking for my brother Bolin. He didn't show up for work today and I got a tip that he was here. He looked at his fellow lackeys Did you happen to find a guy named Bolin. An equalist with a mask responded. He's on the menu for tonight. The man moved a step forward. Have I not seen these two before? I'm sorry but who are you two? Korra's eyes widened. Korra knew it was ouch time if she didn t quickly finish this guy off. Either that or fib and get called on it then get beaten like a punching bag. She took action, a jab to the stomach. No effect. She jumped backwards and then propelled herself like a rocket towards him. She hit. Still no effect. You're no martial artist; you can't even ahhhhhh... Mako chopped his neck. Unfortunately, someone was behind him... Amon.
You are not equalists; why are you here? Korra stepped forward, We re here for Bolin one of the Fire Ferrets. Release him now! Amon stood still. Oh, so someone's authoritative here. You look familiar Avatar Korra? I m honored to have your acquaintance. Korra smirked, The pleasure is all mine. let's go! And so the fight began. Amon doged mako s fireblast and sidestepped Korra s earthbending. And he had her; the fight was over. You will be one of the first to witness the power the spirits have given me, the ability to take away a bender s bending. Korra was confused seeing as she had not listened to the speech he had given. Only I can do that. No one can... She fell to her knees and Amon placed his thumb on her forehead. And then there was blackness for the Avatar.
