((I know it's been a minute since I've done this story but honestly I forgot I even had it. That's on me))
((Quick Recap: The Dragon Hawks won their first match since the new changes of the game. Now they're heading out to celebrate))
The team changed out of their uniforms, into their regular clothes and headed out to a Water Tribe restaurant
"Man I love Water Tribe grub!" Cho smiled
"Me too!" Luna cheered and started eating her meal
"I still can't believe we won" Zaine chuckled
"Believe it man. And we're just getting started" Kaze smirked holding up his drink "To Luna. The girl who took the Pro-Bending world by storm!"
"I'll drink to that!" Cho and Zaine laughed and held up their drinks to meet Kaze's
Luna blushed and looked down "I don't deserve this"
"Don't leave us hanging Princess" Kaze said
Luna smiled and took the boys up on their offer
"Cheers!" the team laughed
Throughout the whole night people kept passing them, congratulating them, and wishing them luck in their next match. After they finished their meal, the team were groaning with full stomachs
"Ugh... I hope we don't have a match 'til next year..." Cho sighed
"What a wuss..." Kaze smirked
"I don't feel so good..." Luna whimpered as her cheeks puffed up
Luna let out a large burp. Since she was an Airbender, her belch was powerful. After Luna was done she looked at her team and noticed their hair were pushed back
"Sorry..." Luna blushed
"Is there nothing she cannot do?" Cho asked starting to clap
"Whoo!" Kaze and Zaine joined him in the clap and laughed
Luna was confused to why they were cheering such an embarrassing thing but smiled anyway. They paid their bill and walked out into the streets
"The night's still young, I say we treat her right!" Cho offered
"What did you have in mind?" Zaine asked
"Anything. We can't just stop. Come on, let's go sight seeing" Cho smiled
Cho was right. It's always good to celebrate so they went to some of their favorite hang-outs. After a while they made their way towards the docks near Avatar Aang's Memorial, which was one of Kaze's favorite spots in the entire city
"I always love coming here. Ever since I moved to Republic City. I don't know how to explain it but I always felt so at peace just looking at that statue" Kaze said
"Makes sense. Avatar Aang save the world and Avatar Korra is out there saving the world right now" Luna smiled
"She's alright, I guess" Kaze smirked "But she's no Aang"
Luna gasped and punched Kaze in the arm causing the guys to laugh
"Alright alright, she's a good avatar. There I said it" Kaze laughed
"Of course she is. Luna wouldn't even have her bending if she didn't open the spirit portals" Cho said
"Allowing spirits to walk among us. Giving airbending to non-benders. Let anyone say what they want, Korra did some pretty awesome things for this world. And the spirit world" Zaine added
Everyone continued the conversation when something caught their attention. A speedboat holding four men was heading for the statue
"Who are those guys?" Cho asked
"Fishermen?" Luna wondered
"At this hour? No way" Zaine said
Kaze felt something was wrong so he headed to the water
"Where are you going?" Zaine asked
"We are going after those guys" Kaze said
"We? I'm going too?" Zaine asked
"Yeah. I need your waterbending so they won't hear us" Kaze answered
Cho titled his head "And you don't want them to hear you... why?"
"My instincts say to keep a low profile" Kaze explained
Cho and Zaine looked at each other, nodded, and went by Kaze's side. Zaine used his bending to create a block of ice for everyone to stand on. The boys jumped onto the ice and looked back at Luna
"Coming Princess?" Kaze asked
"Just like that?" Luna asked Cho and Zaine
"We've known Kaze long enough to know when his instincts say something, they're usally right" Zaine explained "After a while we just stopped questioning it"
"Good enough for me" Luna shrugged and used her bending to float onto the ice
Zaine created a current that carried the Dragon Hawks to the island. Once the got there they jumped into the shadows and spied on the men that arrived ahead of them
Cho looked around the corner "What the..."
"What?" Zaine asked looking at the men "Wait a minute"
"You guys too? I thought I recongnized to guys" Kaze glared
"I don't get it. What's going on?" Luna asked
"Triple Threat Triads. A group a benders that cause trouble all over the city" Kaze said
"I've heard of the Triple Threats. It's just these guys?" Luna wondered
"No. These guys are just one set. Triple Threats are all over. We actually recongnize these ones. They tried to hire us as our own group not too long ago" Zaine said "Of course we turned them down"
"I get it" Luna said taking a closer look at them "Wait, something's not right"
"Well that's obvious. The Triple Threats shouldn't be on this island" Kaze said
"No, I mean, weren't there four of them?" Luna asked
Out of nowhere a powerful gust if air sent the team flying. The attack was by the man that was missing, a skinny pale man with toothpick in his mouth
"Airbending?" Kaze asked pulling himself off the ground
"An Airbender? With the Triple Threats?" Cho growled
The three men walked over with the Airbender. The Firebender was a tall man with sunglasses, the Earthbender was on the heavy side, and the Waterbender was a woman with really long hair tied into a ponytail around the middle
"What do you jerks want?" Kaze glared
"We're doing whatever we want. Isn't that obvious?" the Firebender smirked lighting the palm of hand on fire
"I thought you guys were history when Amon took your bosses bending away!" Cho yelled
"That's why we have a new boss" the woman said
"That doesn't explain what you're doing here" Zaine said
"The Avatar refused to give our old boss' bending back. So our new boss wants us to do something to show everyone that we're back in business" the large Earthbender laughed
"And he sent you here?" Luna asked
"Actually that was our idea. All he said was doing something that gets evertone's attention. And be creative" the Airbender smirked
Kaze punched his palm "So you decided to mess up this statue. You realize we're gonna have to kick your sorry butts, right?"
"You four? This isn't a game kiddies. It's the real world!" the Firebender laughed
"That's fine by us" the Dragon Hawk boys grinned
"Hold on a sec. Speaking of four. Why are there four of you guys anyway? Isn't the whole point of being called The Triple Threats to have three men, not four?" Luna wondered
"Under normal circumstances you'd be right. But with all the Airbenders popping up, it's only fair a few of them choose the winning side. So for now on the groups with four members will be known as the Quadruple Threats" the Firebender explained
"Well I feel sorry for those losers. Also..." Kaze said running up and punching the opposing Firebender "...I'm not a kid!"
The two Firebenders began fighting, blasting flames everywhere. That was basically the bell ringing, ordering the the others to began fighting as well. Each Dragon Hawk fought their opposing Quadruple Threat bender
Kaze back flipped off the wall to dodge a fireball and shot some fire of his own "You guys picked the wrong night to come back"
"You twerps picked the wrong night to come here" Kaze's enemy smirked
Zaine brought up some water and surrounded himself in a water dome. He quickly began jabbing the water, sending water projectiles at his opponent. Whenever the water got close the woman broke them apart. She brought up a wave and turned it into multiple large ice shards. She dropped her arms and sent them at Zaine, forcing him to jump out of the way and over the edge. He quickly made and ice surfboard and surf around the island
"That looks that fun" the woman smirked copying Zaine and continuing the fight
Cho was having a hard time with his fight. Anything he threw at the at large man he took and sent something even bigger right back. The man stomped his foot and crumbled the ground around them
"Hey no fair!" Cho yelled trying the stop the attack form endangering Aang's statue
Cho made a stone wall and kicked it at the man only for him to catch it and throw it back. Cho drove his fist forward and crushed the wall. Then he noticed his opponent disappered
Cho scratched his head "Huh? How can someone so big just vanish?"
Luna was running around trying not to get hit by the air bullets being fired at her by the pale man. She flipped and brought her foot down, sending a vertical air slash at him but he took the hit. Luna spun a few times and sent a horizontal blast this time. The man sent sent flying back but cusioned his fall with air
"Darn it" Luna grumbled and went back to fighting
Kaze was being pushed towards the water and getting really ticked off
"What you gonna do now kid?" the man laughed
Kaze became furious "I thought I told you... I'm not a kid!"
Kaze blasted a large amount of fire behind himself and took off like rocket. He collided with his enemy and slammed him into the wall. The man threw him off and groaned at his aching body
"That's gonna cost you!" the Firebender growled
Zaine was still surfing around, dodging ice spears that kept popping up from the water. He made a wave using it as an u-turn and went back at the women
"Luna!" Zaine yelled giving her a signal
"I gotcha!" Luna replied
When Zaine got close he brought his arms up and created blast of water right under the waterbending woman, sending her high into the air
"AHH!" the woman screamed
Luna noticed Zaine's attack distracted the pale man and used her window of opportunity. She slid behind him and blasted a strong current form her foot, sending him flying into his falling friend before she hit the water. They skipped across a couple times and finally fell in
"Alright!" Luna smiled giving Zaine a thumbs up
Zaine smirked and gave ine back "Good job Luna"
Cho had still had visual on the large man and asumed he ran away "I guess I'm just that good"
Out of nowhere the man popped out of the ground and knocked Cho into the air
"Whoa!" Cho gasped and grabbed apart of the statue so he wouldn't fall to his doom "No fair!"
The large man began shooting rock onto the air trying to knock Cho down. That gave the young Earthbender an idea and began using the flying stone as steps to get back down
"Nice try" Cho smirked
The man growled and made his way back into the ground. Cho wasn't about to fall for the same trick twice and waited for his chance to strike back
"Come on Humpty Dumpty... I'm ready for you" Cho mumbled
The ground broke apart as the man came up with the same attack as before but this time Cho flipped through the air and slammed his hands on the ground. The large man was blasted out of the ground and into the water by a sudden boulder that rose from the ground
"And that was that" Cho smirked and started doing a victory dance
Kaze had turned his whole fight around. He was suddenly dodging and blocking the fire blasts like child play. Kaze saw an opening and starting doing some specific movements. Lightning started forming aorund Kaze's fingertips and he fired the lightning at the ground his opponent was standing on. The explosion sent him high into the sky. He came down a second later into the water with the rest of his team
"This isn't over you brats!" the Firebender yelled when he resurfaced
The rest of the Quadruple Threats swam over and joined him in treatening the Pro-Benders. Zaine smirked and created a wave that pushed then back to shore
"Umm... I think it is" Kaze laughed
DRAGON HAWKS VS. QUADRUPLE THREATS! WINNERS: DRAGON HAWKS!
The team regrouped and caught their breaths
"That... That..." Luna mumbled
"You okay Luna?" Zaine asked
"That was awesome! What a rush!" Luna smiled "I never got into that kinda fight before!"
The boys laughed
Kaze put his hand on Luna's shoulder "Let's keep this little experience to ourselves Princess"
"Well duh! If my mom finds out that I was in a fight, I mean a fight-fight...!" Luna panicked
"Bet you never thought you'd win our Pro-Bending match, and fight a couple loser criminals in one night, huh?" Cho laughed
"No way" Luna sighed
"Come it's getting late. We should be getting home" Zaine pointed out
"You heard the man. Let's roll" Kaze said
Zaine made another ice block and took everyone back to shore. The team wished each other goodnight and went their separate ways
