In the Suicide Slums, there was a warehouse where Equalists and Intergang members were smuggling weapons, informal documents, etc. They were in a tight scheduale due to the suspession and paranoia of the new vigilante that had just showed up in Republic City. Amon and Manhiem had their orginizations working double time, if they wanted their plans to go into safe play.
"Lets get 'em moving. The boss wants to get these new toys into the hands of every worthy Intergang member," an Intergang head master called out.
"You want these so, bad why don't you use your bending to get it moving faster," an Equalist henchman remarked back.
"Watch it punk. You have no idea who talking to."
"Calm down. We are all friends here," the Equalist head man tried calming down the tension.
"Well get your boy under control then."
"Lets just get these shippments mov..."
The Equalist head man was interupted when the lights automatically went off.
"Get the lights back on."
One of the henchmen went to turn them back on, but the lights didn't turn on. Suddenly, an arrow hit the engine of one of the trucks, and it detonated a small bomb that was on the arrow. The truck's engine blew up, and two other trucks followed.
It was clearly able to tell that these gangsters/terrorests were under attack. They pulled out their weapons or prepared for any combat. The henchmen that were armed with harpoon guns fell down from being shot at a non-lethal, yet precise area that immobilized them.
From the ceiling, dropped to figures. One was shooting lightning bolts at the Equalists and Intergangsters, while the other just kept lifted his fist up and threw a hard punch to the ground. The impact of the punch caused a few of the crooks to fall down from the earth shaking slamming punch. The rest of the Equalists and Intergang members decided to do probably the wisest decision they could come up with. Oce after the other, they all lifted their hands to the back of their heads and went down on their knees.
"We give up! Okay! Just don't hurt me!"
"I'm only doing this as a job. This ain't worth the yuans."
The Guardian looked towards his current teammate in crime fighting, who was already using a his lightning-bending to use static electicity to grab chains and tie it around the suspects. The Green Arrow came down from his shooting vantage point, and he was pulling two Equalist henchmen that were knocked out.
"These two were on the roof keeping watch. They are not talking," Green Arrow said.
"Lets see what they were planning on shipping," the Guardian said.
The red cloacked muscle-man and the green hooded archer walked to one of the crates, and opened it to see patatoes.
"There shoud be other crates that other stuff. I'll check them out," the archer said, while Guardian acknowledged. Then an idea came up in the Kryptonian's mind. He started to pull on the side of the crate to pull it out, and as he pulled it off, out came these sort of gloves.
"What do we have here?"
Green Arrow sees what the Guardian had revealed and did the same with the crate he was inspecting. Only in this crate, the hidden compartments were a some sort contraption that looked as if they were meant to be placed on a person as if it were armor.
"What do you suppose these are," Green Arrow asks.
Clar looks at the time, to see how much time is left until the police well arrive.
"Take one of each. The police we'll be here soon," the Guardian said.
Each one of the masked heroes picked up a weapon to take back and examine what they are.
It wasn't too long after the heroes left, and the police finally arrived. The first on the scene was a very tall man who was probably even taller than Clar. He was Earth Kingdom descent and he had on a brown trench coat and fedora. He was one of Republic City's finest police detectives, Jun Jo-ons. He sees all the Equalists and Intergang members tied up to chains, and the cargo shippments were still there.
Detective Jun went to the closest tied up suspect and smacked his head to wake him up.
"Wake up. What happened?"
"They came out of nowhere. They started coming from above and the darkness," the Intergang member started to ramble.
"Calm down. You said, 'they.' This wasn't just the Guardian."
"No man. There were others two more. Or there could've been alot more. Oh I don't know man, it could've been the Guardian. He probably got some new super powers, or crap like that."
Jun knew that this gangster was also a user to a certain drug, so he would have to interagate other suspect/witnesses that weren't under any influence.
"Lets get these guys out of here," Jun ordered the other officers. This top cop took a quick scan of the whole warehouse, and saw that the roof window was open. He walked up to the roof to see if there any clues. The roof was covered with snow, so he could easily see that there were footprints to up to three men.
"One of them had to be the Guardian, or at least someone who is a 'handicapped' earthbender because that window was plate glass," Jun said to himself.
"Besides that, I need to find out what these Equalists and Intergangsters were shipping."
He went back inside to check the shippment crates and saw different sorts of contraptions that were under patatoes. If the Equalists/Intergang went through the trouble of trying stash this strange equipment, then that would mean they were going to used for smething big.
"What are they planning?"
Meanwhile...
"This is your cave, or something like that," Black Lightning asked Green Arrow.
"No. This is just my temporary hideout in this city."
"How much did all this cost you," the Guardian asked as he looked at a different assortment of arrows.
"I don't want t think about it. Lets see what these things can do."
Green Arrow placed one of the exo-skeloton contraption on the table to analyze. He looked closer and saw small neddles in the arrangment of injecting into different areas of a body's muscles. There was also a compartment that looked to be empty, as if something were to be placed in there.
"It looks like this thing has a missing piece to it," Green Arrow said as he held it up for the other two to see it. The compartment had certain shape to it, which got Black Lightning's attention.
"I think I may have it. One of the gang leaders had it stashed in his pocket," Black Lightning said, as he pulled out a small box. He opened it, and what was revealed inside was a green object that was the same shape as the empty compartment to that metal exo-skelaton.
"Well lets put it in and... hey Guardian you alright," Green Arrow asked the Kryptonian.
The Guardian was actually starting to feel fatigued. He had this sort of small dizziness going on his head, and he had to lean on to a table to keep balance.
"I'm... I'm not sure," the Guardian said. How was he feeling weak all of a sudden? The last time he ever had this sort of dizziness was when he was a little kid, and that was when his powers were barely about to develop. Then a conclusion came up to him.
He tried to test his hypothesis of the meteor rock being the reason for his sudden headache. He took a few steps fowards until he got right next to it. The headache started to get even worse, and he actually felt as if his blood were starting to boil. The Guardian tried to step back, but he lost his step and tripped to the ground.
"You okay Guardian?"
"Its that rock. It's... it is making me... weak," the Guardian tried to speak, but the pain was becoming unbearable the more time he stayed close to it. Green Arrow quickly took action and placed it away in a lead lined crate that was used to contain any harmful gases or etc. As soon as it was gone, the Guardian was finally relieved of the pain.
"How is a rock able to hurt you?
"I don't know. What is that made out of," the Guardian asked.
"I'm not sure. I thought it was an emerald, but as a bender who is in the same area of firebending, I was able to sense some strange aura of heat coming from this," Black Lightning answered.
"Let me see that," the Green Arrow grabbed the green rock, and took a close look at it. Then he recognized this.
"This is a meteor rock."
"Meteor rock?"
"Yeah. It was about a few months ago that there have been some small meteor showers falling in different areas across the globe," Green Arrow said.
"I heard of that. There were so many meteors that they started to just gather them and sell them," the Guardian said.
"Well it has to have some purpose to be a puzzle piece for this exo-skeloton," Green Arrow said.
"Have you already checked that other weapon we found," the Guardian asked Black Lightning as Green Arrow helped him up.
"Yeah. Though it was missing some batteries, I had to use my own charge to get running. Here put it on."
Green Arrow took the glove and placed it on his hand. Black Lightning put his hand to where the battery chargers were supposed to be placed and put just enough power in the gloves.
"There is a trigger inside of the glove. Just press on it."
"Okay, but if it blows up, I'm going to use my other arm to shoot an arrow throw your important part," Green Arrow threatend as he was worried what may happen. He pushed on the trigger, and from the palm of the glove, shot a bolt of electricity.
"Daamn," Green Arrow commented.
"You have the power of a lightning-bender," Black Lightning announced.
"If the Equalist and Intergang have these weapons, then Republic City is in greater threat then what we thought," the Guardian said.
The next day...
The Fire Ferrets had won the semi-finals, and they were going to the championship final match. Their opponents were the defending champs, the Wolfbats.
Korra decided to keep silent from Mako's kiss because she didn't want to think about it. She didn't want to be one of those Mary Sues that couldn't figure out their feelings for some boy. Honestly, she wasn't interested in Mako. Besides his very uptight attitude as the team captain, he was a good friend, just like his brother Bolin.
Right now, Korra had all her attention on practice, where the Fire Ferrets were pushing themselves to test what they were capable of. After target shooting their elements at profile photos of Tahno, the Fire Ferrets called it a practice. Korra said how they are more than capable of taking on the Wolfbats, and that they'll win. Then suddenly, the radio stopped playing its regular broadcast, and Amon's voice was heard.
"Good evening, Republic City. This is Amon. It seems that the pro-bending sport has been a very hot topic lately, and the Championship Final is coming to play tonight. It's time that the people of this city should stop worshiping these benders as if they devine beings. Which is why I' am warning the High Council to shutdown the arena, and ban pro-bending. If you do not comply, you shall pay the consiquences. The Guardian, if you are listening, I'll warn to stay out of my way once more, or I well show this city that nobody, even you, aren't safe from me."
The broadcast ended right there.
"That guy has some nerve. Espicially calling out the Guardian like that," Bolin said.
"Do you really think the Council well close the arena," Mako asked.
"Only one way to find out," Korra said as she gestured for the brothers to follow her, so that they may get to the Main City Hall.
A few minutes later, and the Fire Ferrets were in City Hall...
Korra opened the doors to the meeting that was being held by the High Council.
"Korra, this is a closed meeting," Tenzin said.
"As the Avatar, and a pro-bender, I have a right to be heard. You cannot do as Amon says. You need to keep the Arena open," Korra tried to to convince the Council, but Tarrlock was just about to slam the gavil. However, the hammer didn't hit the podium because it was broken by a metal cable shot from Lin.
"I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but I agree with the Avatar," Be Fong said.
"You do?" Tenzin, Tarrlock and Korra asked in disbelief.
THe Chief of Police then told the Council, the Avatar and compony that they should be alot moe unified as a city to face these terrorist organizations. Tarrlock was interested in what Lin was requesting, so he allowed her to speak. Lin told them that she willing to have her metalbending officers to guard the arena, and she explained how the metalbending officers' armor is able to take on a chi-blockers attack and they are trained to deal with any sort of benders.
"Are saying you will take full responsibilty for the safety of the spectators and the arena," Tarrlock asked.
"I garrunttie it," Lin answered.
"Well then. All in favor," Tarrlock asked the rest of the Council. All, except Tenzin, raised their hands in support for this plan of security.
"The arena will stay open."
After the meeting was settled, the news spread out through out Republic City about the Council's decision. Clar was still trying to investigate what was it the Equalists have made besides those electricuting gloves. The masked fighters knew that if they tried on that exo-skeloton, they might be harmed due to the fact that they didn't know how it worked. As one of them was testing out the meteor rocks, the other two went out into the city to gather any info.
Clar was in his reporter outfit, and he was entering the police headquarters to meet with Detective Jun Jo-ons. The kryptonian/reporter knew that Detective Jun was the first on the scene with that Equalist/Intergang bust, so he thought that maybe he may have found out what theat exo-skeloton was capable of doing. He walked toward the office where Detective Jun was placed in. Jun wasn't there, but there was something that caught Clar's eyes and it was pasted to the wall.
One of the walls on Jun's office was covered with newspaper clippings and articles. The articles were talking a lot about racism. Not just with the Equalists, but racism in general. For example, there were Fire Nation supremasists that caused great violence towards other nation descendants in the United Republic of Nations because the URN was orginally the Fire Nation colonies and they still should only belong to the Fire Nation. Besides the racist topic articles, there articles concerning the vigilante masks dating all the way back to when the first masked adventurer team was assembled. Then there were other articles that were apart of the, 'crazy stories,' which people seem to not take serious because they thought of those topics rediculous. Those 'crazy' articles that Jun had pasted to his wall, were all talking about one topic; unidentified flying objects.
Clar's attention from the desplayed articles was disturbed with a sound of someon clearing his throat. The reporter looked back to see Detective Jun Jo-ons holding a file.
"Detective Jun Jo-ons. I'm happy that you took some time to meet with me," Clar said.
"It is apart of my job. To fight for justice and uncovering the truth. Your job is to spread the words of truth and justice, and that is why you're here," Jo-ons said.
"You said something about uncovering weapons at the Equalist/Intergang shipment warehouse that the Guardian busted."
"Clarify, the Guardian wasn't alone."
"Oh right," Clar pretended to make a mistake of not knowing.
"Anyways there were some unusual supplies. Such as these electrocuting gloves, and then these exo-skelotons," Jun gave Clar photos of the crime scene.
"The exo-skelatons seem to be useless without a certain power source. One of the Equalist headmen were carrying a carved meteor rock. It fit the power outlt but it is stil missing a piece. We can't find out what it is for until we can get a meteor rock in that same shape."
"When do you think that will be complete?"
"By tomarrow. It would be easy to mold it, but its special properties takes a very skilled earthbender to mold it."
"How far you with the investigation on catching Amon and Manhiem?"
"Making progress, but its going slow since Councilman Tarrlock is placing a number of our man-power and resources into catching the Guardian. There is o teling how much more effort he is going to have us put in now that there are two masked men in the city."
"Can you confirm if one of the masked man is identified as the, the Archer, aka the Hood, aka the Green Arrow, from Omashu?"
"Not entirely. Omashu is still getting reports of a masked man armed with a bow and arrow has still been making apperance on fighting crime."
That was all of the questions Clar had. He knew if there was really anymore valuable information that should be heard, Jo-ons would contact him. That was basicilly all he needed to know; that the police had in their custody the other piece to the power outlet for the exo-skeloton.
"Is there info if Amon will go along with his threat," Clar asked.
"It is pretty obvious. So far with every threat Amon has made to the public, he has answered it with extreme violence. We have to assume that he will be using these new weapons. Which I'm invesitgating further on who designed and developed them," Jun answered. "I think that is all the questions I have."
"I was just about to leave," Clar agreed as he was just on his way out.
" ," Jun said to Clar, who stopped and turned to the detective.
"If there is anything I could do for you. Just let me know," Jo-ons placed his hand out for a handshake. Of course, with Clar being raised with polite manners, he gave the detective the handshake. However, once Clar's hand grabbed Jun's hand, he a felt something strange. It wasn't from his hand, but from his head, as if something were going taking a look inside his head. It was a very short feeling, so it was gone in a second he let go of Jun's hand.
"I'll be happy to," Clar replyed to Jun's offer, as he walked out. The detective looked to his wall of newpaper clippings.
He stared at one article talking about an astronomer, who died a few years ago in his observatory outside the city limits of Republic City. It talked about how that astronomer was supposibly on the verge of discovering something big, but was then found dead.
"I'm not alone," that was all Jun said to himself. He was talking about when he made contact with Clar. He was flooded with images and secrets. Secrets like not being from this world. Jun's eyes flashed red for a moment, which was normal for whatever he truely was.
The arena was being packed up by citizens of Republic City and many other people from al across the world to see the best pro-bending teams compete for the champonship title. The arena wasn't just occupied by sports fans, but, also, by the metalbending police officers guarding the arena making sure that the Equalists don't make any attack. The officers are aware of the new weapons that the Equalists/Intergang have in their control, so they will keep extra security on checking those items.
Outside the arena, the Guardian was in his vantage point to make sure that the Equalists/Intergang won't attack from the outside. He had just gone over security plans with the other two masked adventurers. Black Lightning would be outside in his civilian disguise to keep watch inside the crowd of people outside, and Green Arrow would be in his civilian disguise inside setting in the VIP section as Oli-Kahn Quan. He had to keep a low profile, so that none of the police airships would take him for an Equalist or Intergang member.
Detective Jo-ons was called into the arena for extra security since catching Amon and Manhiem was apart of his case. He was walking to Chief Be Fong to tell her the security checks were all set, and that he would make a final sweep of the arena. She was standing alongside Councilman Tenzin by the railings that blocked the drop into the water pit that seperated the audiance from the court.
"Everything is placed Chief Be Fong. I just gave a heads up to all officers to check for the confiscated weapons found from last night's bust," Jun said to Lin.
"Will done, Leutenant Jo-ons. And make sure you keep a watch for the vigilantes as will," Lin said as she kept watchig the enitre audiance that was watching the match in play. Apparantlly there was some controversy happening in the match because the Wolfbats were making foul plays on the Fire Ferrets, but they weren't being called.
"Permission to state opinion Chief," Jun asked.
"This isn't the military, but go on ahead," Lin reminded Jun.
"Do you really think that these masked adventurers are a menace to society? So far, they have saved countless amounts of people and have even given the police vital info on next steps being made by these real criminals," Jun asked.
Lin thought for moment. Looking back to when the first masked heroes-heroines appeared, and when her mother revealed her life as one of the heroines alongside Lin's father.
"My mother and father were both wonders who made up the roster for that team known as, 'The Justice Society.' They kept their identities a secret from the world beause they thought it would protect the ones they love. They even kept it a secret from me. What they just couldn't realise is that their very presence caused a chain reaction to the scum of this world. There was evil that wanted to challenge the authourity of those masks. In that process, people kept getting hurt from all those battles. Their distruction, their untrustworthy led to more danger which is why new laws have placed all masks outlawed. The law is the law, Detective Jo-ons. As officers of the law, if is our duty to enforce it. Understood," Lin answered in a tone where Jun would get the memo. Jun nodded and went back to his sweep around the arena.
After the match was finally called off, there were spectators that were putting on masks over their faces. Alongside the spectators, there were a handfull of metalbending officers that were moving towards out of view air condition vents and were unscrewing the hinges to open what was inside the grates. Those same matalbending officers were also secretly removing their armor to replace them with models of the same exo-skelotons that were apprehended by the heroes and police. These metalbenders then brought their own meteor rock piece to place in the power outlet of the exo-skeloton. The exo-skeloton started to send electric currents into the wearers blood stream, and the special properties of the meteor rock wer causing some significant changes to them. It was as if they were being given an amped up charge of power.
Those same men, turned out to be Intergang members, then charged at the other metalbending officers and with their amped strength and power, they easily knocked out the officers they jumped. The masked spectators revealed the same gloves that allowed to shoot electricity, and they started to electrocute any officers that were near them.
Oli-Kahn saw what was happening from his VIP seat, and he saw two masked Equalists about to sneak up on two officers. He quickly threw a small dart like knife to the shoulder of one of the Equalist henchmen, while his 'bodyguard', Dikans, drew out his harpoon pistol to fire at the other Equalist chi-blocker.
"Dikans, throw me my bag," Oli called to Dikans, for he was more closer to the bag that held Oli's required tools to fight these Equalists and Intergang attackers.
After Dikans passed the bag to Oli, Oli made a run to an area where he can change without being seen. As soon as Oli was gone, Dikans and the same two oficers were surrounded by exo-skeloton wearing Intergangsters.
"Don't even make a make a move. Drop your gun and slide it away, and get on the ground," the Intergangster ordered.
Meanwhile outside, Jefrank Piersin, also known as Black Lightning, and the Guardian saw airships incoming towards the arena. The airships started to fire cannons at the police airships. The police airships tried to fire back, but these cannons that the hostile airships had were more upgraded and they were shooting at a more faster rate than the police airship's. The Guardian quickly took action by firing his flame vision at the hostile airships. Black Lightning decided to aid the Guardian by shooting lightning blasts at the airships as will.
'There is more to this than meets the eye. What is happening inside the arena,' Clar asked himself, as he jumped out of the falling airship. Once he landed on top of the roof of the arena, he heard a voice coming from the outside speakers of the arena.
"I believe I have your attention, citizens of Republic City."
Inside the arena around the same time the Guardian and Black Lightning counter-attacked the airships...
The Fire Ferrets were left in the water from being knocked down by the cheating Wolf-Bats. As they were about to get back on to the dry floor, they saw metalbending officers being electrocuted and some benders, wearings metal contraptions around them, taking down other officers. Suddenly, dropping from an opening came the Persuader. He placed his ax into the water and triggered his ax to electrofy the water and knocking out the Fire Ferrrets. On the court, the Wolf-Bats were attacked by Amon and other Equalists. Amon easily removed their bending and let them drop to the water.
Elsewhere inside the arena, Detective Jun was met by Intergangsters wearing exo-skelotons. He drew his harpoon pistol to take out one of them, but the other two were able to disarm Jun. They thought Jun wouldn't be able to fend himself thanks to their now strengthend power, but to their surprise, Jun was extremely strong enough to fight them hand-to-hand. Jun decided to test a theory by removing the meteor rock from its power outlet. Once he did that with one of the Intergang members, that Intergangster passed out from all that amped power being ripped away from him in an instant. The other one saw what Jun did, and try to counter but suffered the same fate as his right hand man. Jun looked around to see if there were any hostiles near him, and then moved on to where he can get a view to what was happening in the audiance stands and the court.
Amon had a seaker on his hands while he stod at the center of the court with his Equalist henchmen standing by him.
"I believe I have your attention, citizens of Republic City. If there is any masked vigilante that intends to try and stop me, you may want to reconsider. As of now, there are 3 bombs all across the city that have been set up to go off withen a matter of time. So the Guardian and any other mask should ask themselves. Go after mem or the save the city and everyone around them."
Outside the arena, the Guardian heard of what Amon had set up. He looked to Black Lightning and said, "I'm the only one fast enough to get those bombs and get them away from any bystanders."
"Go. Me and Arrow will try our best in taking down Amon," Black Lightning said. The Guardian then ran into the city and started his search for the bombs.
Right below the court, the Fire Ferrets were tied up to a pillar. They were all blacked out for the moment, and Korra was having another vision of her past life. She saw Avatar Aang standing by Toph Be Fong, who was wearing some sort of armor that was completely different from her metalbender armor. The armor looked almost a very dark red on the abdomon area, and the lower body was covered with by a blue colored leg armor. She was also carrying a sword and shield on her back and a golden rope tied to her waist area. Sokka was placed a his left hand, that a green ring on one of the fingers, and placed it next to the same lantern and there was green flames coming out from the lantern reacting to the ring. Then Avatar Aang was facing the same Water-Tribe man, only this time the Water-Tribe man was standing beside another man. This man was quite larger than your average man. He had a rugged beard, and was wearing a sort of military uniform. He was also carrying a spear. The view changed to Avatar Aang in the Avatar State, but there was something happening with Aang. His usual air nomad clothing was being covered up by a dark green cloak. The vision ended.
Meanwhile, The Guardian had just found all three bombs, so now he was on his back to the arena to bring in Amon.
Amon was still giving his speech.
"And there will be nothing to stop us from bringing equality to Republic City..." all of a sudden an arrow knocked the microphone out of Amon's hand.
"I can concure that," Green Arrow called out as he had another ready to fire.
Under his mask, Amon narrowed his eyes and gestured for his men to fire at the archer. The Equalists fired their harpoon guns, but the Green Arrow was able to evade the shots and fire back with his arrows. Since the Equalists were busy with archer, Jun took this oppurtunity to cut loose a few metalbending cops.
"This our chance. If you meet one of them wearing those metal contraptions, aim for the power outlet that is behind them," Jun said to the officers, as he got up to get to Amon. But then Jun was met with the Persuader wielding an electrifying ax. Jun barely dodged the ax, and threw a kick to the Persuader's chest which knocked him to the near by wall. Following the Persuader were two henchmen enhanced with the meteor rock. One of them turned out to be a firebender, fired a blast that would've been a equevalent to a firebender being given enrgy from Sozin's Comet. Jun moved out of the way from the fire, but he couldn't move because he was frozen in trance as he stared at the fire that brought pain to his memory and mind.
Black Lightning went in to aid Green Arrow by shooting bolts of lightning at the Equalists. Amon knew that this was getting too intense. He knew the time to leave should be now, but he looked up to the sky light of the arena and there was no Equalist airship to pick him up. No matter for him, because he still has another way out. As he moved downward to the water, his Equalist henchmen gave him cover.
As Amon was making his escape, the Guardian barely entered the arena. As he was running through, he saw Jun laying flat on the ground while there was a fire. The Guardian quickly put out the fire, but then he had to keep going to catch Amon. Clar made it to where the court was, and he looked below to see Korra and Fire Ferret brothers tied up. Clar used his flame vision to rip the rope, and as soon as the rope was ripped off Korra was on her feet and ready for combat.
"We need to get Amon," Korra said. On que, Green Arrow and Black Lightning dropped down to the bottom level.
"We saw him dive into the water," Black Lightning said.
"Lets go," the Guardian said.
They all dove into the water to track down Amon. As they were in the water, they entered an open vent that led into a large pipe system. They soon found themselves in a tunnel with a walkway above the water. They got up onto the walkway and looked around for any signs of any Equalists. The Guardian used his superior hearing to pick up any activity near by. His hearing then picked up what seemed to be a gun being loaded and ready to fire.
"Avatar, form some cover," the Guardian said to Korra. Korra obliged by summoning earth plates from the walkway. The wall covered the heroes from heavy harpoon gun fire.
"Can't get a shot until they stop shooting," Green Arrow said.
"I got this," Korra said. She then used her sismec senses to pin point where the shooters were coming from, and she used the water that was in the tunnel to freeze the shooters.
"Clever girl," Black Lightning complimented.
"Can you use your sismec senses to see what else is ahead, Korra," the Guardian asked.
"I'll see what I can do," Korra said. As she stomped with her feet, she noticed something that was all around the tunnel and she barely noticed just right there.
"We need to get out of here," Korra said with a tone of panic.
"Why," Green Arrow asked.
"Bombs. Bombs everywhere," that was all Korra needed to say to get them moving out of the blast radius. They were in the water when the blast ignited, and the shockwave pushed the heroes back into the water area in the arena.
Black Lightning and Green Arrow needed to reach the surface to get their breath of oxygen, while the Guardian's stronger lungs still carried more oxygen and Korra used her waterbending leave her head inside a bubble felled with air. They went back to the tunnel to see if they could still get back on the trail, but the explosion left a huge amount of debris.
The Guardian looked to Korra, and he gestured that they should boh put some effort into making a clear path through the debris. Korra acknowledged and followed through with the Guardian. With his strength and her earthbending, there was enough space to get through and follow where Amon went. They reached the surface on the other side. Korra needed to get a breather before she could move on, so they had to wait for moment.
"You know, I can get Amon from here. You don't have to beat yourself up just to keep up with me Korra," Clar said.
"I think you have been protecting Republic City alone for long Clar. Besides, you never know if you are going to need my help," Korra remarked.
All Clar could do was smile, and say, "Then I wouldn't have it any other way."
"I'm ready. Lets go hunt down a terrorest," Korra said as she cracked her knuckles.
The Avatar and the kryptonian then ran off into the tunnel to follow Amon's trail.
Meanwhile...
"Can you remind me why you decided to announce an attack on the arena, which gave the authorities and those masks a heads up," Manhiem asked Amon who was setting down.
"Shut up," that was all Amon said.
"You know, we are probably going to have to abandon this dump since you might have probably led them here," Manhiem kept talking. However, something came up in Amon's mind.
"From what my men said they saw, it was those masked adventurers and the Avatar that were on our tale," Amon said.
"Then that gives us an even better excuse to leave this place."
"Or to make this base into a somewhat testing ground," Amon suggested. The way Amon said it gave Manhiem a clue on what he was talking about.
"A testing ground for my, 'bio-weapon,'" Manhiem asked.
"Wouldn't call 'him' yours, since 'he' was here before you and I were born," Amon corrected Manhiem.
"Yeah whatever. So you want to unleash him now," Manhiem asked.
"Yes. If one of the masks or the Avatar get away alive, they will be the perfect messenger to spread the word on what we have in our possision and our control," Amon said.
Manhiem picked up the phine and dialed to another office that was in the same base they were in.
"Get project, 'Born on a Monday,' ready to go for combat," Manhiem said.
I' am terribly sorry for the late update if it is late. Senior year is here for me, and I'm in a IB school. In other words, I'm in for the fight for my life. So please excuse the late update to all my stories, and I'll try to update in a constant rate at least.
The Guardian, Black Lightning, and Green Arrow have made their first bust as a masked team. Detective Jun Jo-ons seems to be a cop that will do what is right, but there seems to be more than what meets the eye. It looks like the infamous green alien rock has revealed itself. The Equalists/Intergang have new weapons at hand. Can you any of you guess what this new weapon they have that will be unleashed on the Kryptonian and the Avatar? We'll find out soon.
Hockyfist- You can say that again. And to answer your question; Mako stole Korra's first kiss. I love your idea of the red kryptonite, but now that you brought it up, I'm thinking of a color like silver. (If you have seen Smallville, you might know what it can do).
Aztec 13- Yep. The heroes are revealing themselves. And there is more revealing on the past heroes.
Guest- Black Lightning is Black Lightning from DC Comics, and I believe he has also shown up in Young Justice and Batman the Brave and the Bold animated series.
AVP5- I'm happy you enjoy the Green Arrow's appearance. Could you please be helpful in reminding me what the Green Arrow theme song is. Lets hope Clar isn't tempted into throwing Mako around like ragdoll for what he did. I'm trying to find female heroes that will fit in with this story, but until then, we have to wait and see how events turn out.
HEROTIME547- You got that right. The new age of heroes are on the verge of rising.
Great Chapter- Patiance mi amigo.
Ashbringer36- I'm happy that you enjoy seeing them here. Black Lightning is actually from DC. He was apart of the Justice League and has been a significant character in great events like in Infinite Crises. You want Luthor? Will take these new weapons, minus the golves, as a little refereance to the notorious criminal mastermind of our time.
Until next time. Leave an update and leave a few small ideas and I'll see what I can do.
