Courtyard: Couple of days before the Fight, Morning…

Team Uchiha Avatar, minus Shisui, stood on the ground looking at Tenzin, Kanan, Lin, Soren, Yun, Jin. Asuma, Iroh, and Shisui who were all on Oogi.

"Given what Shisui's told us, he alone should be enough to deal with any Equalist that try to capture you." Sasuke stated. "With Asuma and Iroh added to that, your family should safely make it to the South Pole with no problems."

"I certainly hope so." Tenzin stated. "Lin, Shisui, Asuma, Iroh, and I will be back before the day of the fight." He looked forward. "Oogi, yip yip."

Oogi took off and Team Uchiha Avatar watched them until they could no longer see the sky bison.

"I hope they make it this time." Korra stated.

"It all depends on if Amon holds true to his word." Mako stated.

"Based on what we heard, Shisui seems to think so." Bolin stated.

Sasuke walked away from the group.

"Sasuke, where are you going?" Asami asked.

"Just taking a walk." Sasuke stated. "Not to worry, I have no plans of leaving the island until the fight."

Asami ran over to him. "Well, then I'll accompany you."

"I certainly can't stop you." Sasuke gave a small smile. "Learned that long ago."

"Learned it long ago?" Asami giggled as they walked. "I'm just glad you finally learned it at all."

Korra stretched. "Well, I'm going to go train."

Bolin and Mako looked at each other, shared a brotherly nod, and decided that they'd spend the day with Korra. Since Sasuke and Asami were going to be busy with each other, this was the perfect chance for a Fire Ferret, bending team, day together.

"Nope, you're coming with us." Bolin began pushing her towards the temple.

Mako said, "All things considered, you look like you need a relaxing day with good people."

"Guys, I'm fine." Korra declared. "Just let me go."

Despite her protest, the bending brothers didn't listen as they continued to pull Korra along.

With Sasuke and Asami

The two walked along the island in a comfortable silence, but it was soon broken by Asami. "Sasuke, are you nervous to face Amon?"

"I'm actually worried, but it's not at the thought of facing Amon." Sasuke stated. "I may not have all the power I did, but even so I've faced stronger people than him."

"Then what are you worried about?" Asami asked.

"I'm worried about losing." Sasuke stated. "If I lose, every person I've formed any sort of bond with will be put in danger. If I lose, Amon gets to continue his war without Shisui or I in his way. I was brought to this world to be its defender.

While that may have only extended to the Shinobi from my world, I'm making it extend to every aspect of this world." He rolled his eyes. "No doubt that loser Naruto would be so proud while also making fun of the Uchiha who can now feel."

Asami smiled. "Well, I'm just proud of my boyfriend who's willing to stand up to someone like Amon. If I could, I'd be in that arena with you fighting him."

Sasuke smiled. "Your spirit is one of the many reasons I've come to love you."

"You already know I love you Sasuke Uchiha." Asami kissed him. "Now, you make sure to beat Amon and put an end to all of this."

Sasuke nodded. "Don't you worry because I intend to."

Pro-Bending Arena, Day of the Fight…

Sasuke stood in front of the building as an equal number of Equalists, non-benders, and used to be benders entered the place. Amon had spread word of their match and the terms, but that hadn't been enough to get any remaining benders out of hiding.

No doubt they'd be listening in though considering he'd heard rumblings of the Equalist broadcasting this. All things considered, Sasuke would have liked to come alone, but he could only swing keeping anyone with bending at the island.

That meant Iroh, Lin, Tenzin, Korra, Bolin, and Mako were back there, with Kanan deciding to stay with them, while Asami, Asuma, and Shisui accompanied him. People were looking at them, mainly him, but Sasuke ignored them.

Sasuke turned to his fellow Shinobi. "If I end up losing this, promise me you'll get Asami to safety above…"

"Sasuke, what about…" Asami began.

Sasuke walked up to her. "Asami, you've come to mean so much to me. If I lose, you can't hesitate. Go with Shisui and Asuma. Help them get everyone on the island out. No matter what condition I'm in, I'll find some way to escape on my own."

Asami looked at Sasuke. "You're sweet, but I'll only promise you that if you promise me something in return."

"What's that?" Sasuke asked.

Asami kissed him. "That you'll win."

Sasuke pulled back from her. "Sorry Asami, but a Shinobi should never enter combat assured of their victory. Cockiness doesn't belong in battle." He thought of Naruto. "For the most part. That said, I can promise I'll do everything in my power to win."

Asami nodded. "If that's the best I'm going to get, I can accept it."

Sasuke looked at his fellow Shinobi. "So, can you promise me you'll get her out if I fail?"

Shisui nodded. "You have my word Sasuke. Should you lose, Asami will be safe."

"That goes double for everyone on the island." Asuma stated. "We'll see everyone to safety."

Sasuke nodded and walked towards the building past the crowd. "Then I'll leave you guys to enter the stands." He was determined. "I have a leader to fight."

Arena Stage

Sasuke walked across the walkways and up to Amon who already stood in the center of the arena.

Amon said, "So, you finally decided to show up."

Sasuke stopped across from him. "You didn't give me a time Amon, so be glad I'm here now as opposed to tonight at 11:59."

Just then, Shiro Shinobi, the commentator of the pro-bending, spoke up over the speaker system sounding a little timid. "H-Hello. This is Shiro Shinobi here to c-commentate on this fight per orders from the Equalist."

Sasuke glared at Amon who shrugged. "What can I say, I liked the man's style, so I wanted him to commentate on our fight."

"That's not why I'm glaring." Sasuke stated.

The commentator sounded like he didn't even want to be there, so those orders were likely with threats. Not his life, but there was much one could do that was just as or worse than death.

Shiro continued. "With the arrival of the competitor, the match to decide the fate of a war can be played out before our e-eyes. Fighting for the continuation of a war and exclusion of Sasuke Uchiha and Shisui Uchiha is your leader, Amon."

Everyone but Asami, Shisui, and Asuma cheered. "Fighting to put an end to the war is Sasuke Uchiha. He's a Shinobi, Sage, non-bender, and brother to the Avatar." Asami, Shisui, and Asuma cheered for him while everyone else booed. "I suppose they'll begin when ready folk."

"So Sasuke Uchiha, what does Equality mean to you if not my version of it?" Amon closed his eyes. "To me, it is ridding the world of all bending. To put everyone on equal ground." He opened his eyes. "Can you counter that ideal world and stand against me?"

"I can counter your ideal because it's wrong." Sasuke declared. "Even if you were to eliminate all bending in the world, people will find some other way to obtain power. No matter what that power is, you'd aim to take it.

The process would merely repeat itself in a never-ending loop. What you're suggesting is a never-ending war which is something I won't stand for. When I speak of true equality, what I mean to say is understanding."

He stared Amon down. "A friend of mine was the type of guy who became big on people understanding one another. In short, my version of equality is where non-benders, benders, Shinobi, and anything in between can come to understand one another."

"Interesting." Amon smiled. "Let us see if you have the will to back up your words."

"Yes, let's." Sasuke stated.

At that moment, they began fighting it out going blow for blow and matching each other. Fist to fist, leg to leg, and elbow to elbow before they lunged back.

"Where's your Chi-Blocking Amon?" Sasuke questioned.

Amon replied, "You'll see it Sasuke, but this is a fight to determine whose will is stronger." He drew the water tribe sword and boomerang. "The only way to do that, is to test every aspect of ourselves."

Sasuke drew his own blade as his response. They both charged each other with a mighty yell before they began clashing. Just like before, they mirrored each other move for move with the skill and grace you'd expect of master swordsmen.

Shiro had become a lot more confident as he fell into something familiar. "Folks, this fight is really starting to heat up as these two warriors of ideals are going blow for blow. Neither of them is willing to give an inch."

Stands

The people were enthralled in the battle.

Asami was shocked. "Is this Sasuke when he fights truly serious?"

Shisui shrugged. "I wouldn't know, but he's certainly grown into quite the Shinobi from the little kid I once knew."

"I never saw him after he left the village, but he's certainly more impressive than the Genin I saw take the Chunin Exams." Asuma stated. "That said, this fight is just getting started."

Arena

Amon threw his boomerang, but Sasuke simply moved his head avoiding it before kicking Amon in the chest knocking him back. The Shinobi then turned around and caught the boomerang before it could hit him in the head.

"I don't know who this worked on before, but a Shinobi knows better than to only focus on the fight before them." He placed it into the grate of water which caused it to sink into the water. "Now, got any more toys for me?"

Amon brandished his water tribe sword and gave a simple enough reply to understand. "Gate of Life, open!"

Sasuke closed his eyes. "Sharingan."

He opened them revealing red eyes with three, black tomoe. They both charged at each other and clashed blades once more with much more ferocity and speed stunning the crowd. Shards of metal chipped off each blade as they both cracked.

Finally, with one final swing, both blades shattered. The two fighters, without missing a step, dropped their broken blades. Sasuke punched Amon in the gut, but the leader grasped the Uchiha's arm before spinning around it delivering a powerful kick to Sasuke's face.

The Shinobi was knocked back, but he caught the stage with one hand before flipping back to his feet at the edge threatening to send him into the drink. Amon was there when he landed, but Sasuke caught him with a powerful upper cut knocking the Equalist leader back.

The Uchiha then appeared below the leader's body, midflight, and kicked up nailing him in the back. Amon was flung into the air, but he went with it using the momentum to help him spin. Sasuke had jumped up behind Amon only to be knocked back by a powerful wind.

"Leaf Dragon God!" Amon declared.

Sasuke landed on the stage and looked up to see a dragon with long whiskers in midair right before it launched at him.

"I see, so someone told him about the Taijutsu of that Chen person. In the end, Amon worked out a small kink allowing him to use it in the air; however, there is still the blindingly obvious flaq." Sasuke thought.

"Sasuke, don't use…" Raava began.

The white flames already started to spread. "Sorry Raava, but I need a little more speed." He jumped and began spinning. "You may know the names, but you have no idea the meaning behind them." The two of them moved closer to each other. "Until you do, you have no hope of beating me. "One Man-Primary Lotus!"

Sasuke moved right through the center and towards Amon. Once he was there, he stopped the spin and grabbed Amon stopping his rotation resulting in the tornado vanishing.

"Now, where were we." Sasuke pivoted below Amon. "That's right, I was just about to show you what real Taijutsu looks like."

He kicked Amon in the chest from the side and pivoted around once more catching the leader's throat.

Amon coughed up spittle as Sasuke moved in for the finishing blow. "Gate of Limit, Open!"

The resulting opening of the fifth gate knocked Sasuke away. Both combatants landed, but the Uchiha was already starting to cough up blood from using stage one of the Bless Mark. That said, Amon, even with all his training, was starting to feel the wear and tear of the gates.

"I have no idea what is going on folks, but it appears as though both Sasuke and Amon were hiding many cards close to their chest." Shiro stated. "Trust me when I say, if you are confused, I'm there with you."

Stands

"That must be the start of the damage Sasuke told us about." Asami stated.

Shisui nodded. "It's only going to get worse from here. Considering the state, he was in when he left with Tarrlock, and the state he was in upon returning with Korra, Sasuke's going to have a tough battle ahead of him."

"Especially considering the state he was in, I don't think Sasuke's going to know the meaning of quitting." Asuma added.

Despite the worry of those three, the crowd was amazed at how strong they both were. That said, the fact that Sasuke was keeping up was beginning to sway opinion.

"Amon is stronger than I thought."

"That Uchiha guy is one tough guy."

"Sasuke might actually win this."

"You go Sasuke Uchiha! Prove true equality!"

Stage

Sasuke closed his eyes once more. "Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Blood was starting to dribble down the sides of Sasuke's mouth, but he ignored it as well as the pain.

Both combatants charged forward with Amon eventually stopping while spinning in place. "Leaf Gust!"

Amon's foot caught Sasuke in the side knocking him to the right. The Equalist's leader quickly moved in with his fingers at the ready. The Uchiha's eyes went wide as Amon chi-blocked him in several places. Sasuke was paralyzed before Amon slammed two palms into his gut.

Sasuke hit the ground unable to move. "I need to flood my system with Chakra… Raava, don't…"

Raava sighed. "Sasuke, do it." Sasuke was surprised. "All this time, I've been letting my worry get in the way of anything else. I may not like it, but this is the chance to stop Amon and his Equalist. Whatever comes, I'll try to keep you alive."

Amon approached Sasuke uncertain if this was it. "Is that all you have Sasuke Uchiha? Guess this is as far as all that talk of your true equality goes."

"Don't count this your victory yet Amon." Sasuke declared.

His blue Chakra became golden, and the white flame marking enveloped him. Sasuke's skin turned pale, two matching, white wings sprouted forth from his back. Finally, the red of his Mangekyo Sharingan brightened.

The Uchiha stood only for puncture wounds to appear all over his body as it rejected the light harder than Stage One. Blood was leaking from every wound and the Uchiha coughed up more blood while panting.

Amon was shocked. "Just what are you?"

Sasuke wiped his face, but it didn't stop the blood that came from the sides of his mouth. "I'm a Sage who has yet to tame his full power." He charged at Amon cracking the metal beneath him. "You are a man playing in the realm of a Shinobi."

Sasuke punched Amon in the face sending the leader flying straight for the brick wall. The Uchiha moved and was there without anyone being able to keep track of him. He caught Amon before kneeing him in the stomach and knocking the leader above the arena.

"His power… the sixth gate won't be enough. Morning Peacock won't be enough." Amon was coughing up blood. "I have to go further." Sasuke stood on the middle of the stage charging up a Chidori with every intention of using it to paralyze his opponent. "Gate of Wonder, Open!" Amon's Chakra flared up around him as he wove hand signs. "Daytime Tiger!"

A huge, white tiger, made of Chakra, came from Amon heading straight for Sasuke.

"Raava! Stage three now!" Sasuke shouted.

"Sasuke, you better not die on me!" Raava declared.

The golden Chakra around Sasuke retreated to his hair lengthening and turning it blond. Unlike the Curse Mark, his hair was well kempt. His skin returned to its normal hue while gaining a shining radiance, and his red Sharingan turned the clearest blue.

Sasuke would have looked like a heavenly angel if not for the blood that was staining his clothes and running down his body. The various puncture wounds and blood pouring forth from his eyes gave people a different impression. This was no angel, but a fallen angel.

Sasuke's Chidori gained a golden radiance to it. "Chidori Rejoice!"

Sasuke yelled as he flew up meeting the Daytime Tiger head on with his Chidori. He broke through and kept moving for Amon above.

The leader was shocked before smiling as time seemed to slow down. "So, this is your power Sasuke Uchiha… Heh, alright… I'll concede to your equality for now."

Chidori Rejoice hit Amon in the chest and sunk within. Amon screamed out in pain before both combatants fell to the cracked stage below. Everyone was stunned. Even Shiro who didn't know what to say. It was deathly quiet as everyone looked at both bodies.

Finally, one of them stirred. Sasuke slowly, painfully rose to his feet. His wounds were larger than before and blood splattered to the stage around him. Still he rose before drawing his wooden sword, imbuing it with lighting nature, and thrusted it into the ground.

The Uchiha held the hilt of that blade with two hands using it to keep him standing while Amon hadn't even risen from the ground. Sasuke began panting heavily while everyone stood. Some were concerned about Amon while other's looked pissed, but a majority cheered.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Sasuke Uchiha is the winner!" Shiro declared joyfully.

With that, Sasuke was done. The lighting nature shattered the wood of his blade and he fell back returning to his normal state.

The last thing Sasuke heard, over the crowd, was the one-word Asami, Raava, and Shisui shouted with such concern. "Sasuke!"

Sasuke hit the ground, and passed out, with a smile as blood began pooling beneath him.

Hospital, Day's Later…

Sunlight filtered in through the window of the standard hospital room hitting Sasuke's eyes and forcing him to slowly open them. He first noticed Tonraq and Senna sleeping against a nearby wall and Korra against an opposite wall before Asami hugged him with tears in her eyes.

"Sasuke, you're alright!" Asami declared getting everyone else to wake up.

Sasuke looked at Asami and could see the bags under her eyes. He reached his arms around her and hugged his girlfriend to assure her he was alright. Then he realized that she was hugging him a little too tight.

"Asami… air." Sasuke stated.

She pulled back as Tonraq, Senna, and Korra walked up to the bed.

Korra asked, "Sasuke, are you okay?"

Sasuke could guess what was coming given that fact that he'd been around Sakura and Naruto long enough, and Korra wasn't one of his fan girls.

"I'm fine." Sasuke declared.

Korra smiled before moving to punch Sasuke only for him to be replaced by a nearby chair as he stood in the middle of a room. "Saw that coming a mile away."

Korra whirled around the face him clearly mad. "You old man like, annoying jerk. First you go worrying everyone half to death by nearly dying, then you avoid proper punishment for worrying us."

Tonraq put a hand on her shoulder as Senna ran over to hug him. "Sasuke, what your sister means to say is that we are happy you are okay." She pulled away. "Also, you went too far fighting that Amon person. You had us all very worried and without that friend of yours using something he called medical Ninjutsu, you wouldn't be here right now."

"It's true Sasuke." Raava spoke up. "I could only do so much until Shisui used the Mystic Palm Jutsu."

"I see." Sasuke nodded. "I'm know I had you all worried, but I had to put an end to Amon's war before it spread any further." He got down on his hands and knees doing something no Uchiha, save those who broke free of the Curse of Hatred, would do. "I am sorry for the worry I caused."

Asami brought him to his knees and hugged him. "I'm just glad you're still here. I knew you would be fine, but I couldn't sleep until I… knew… the…"

Asami fell asleep right then and there. Sasuke caught her and picked her up, gently, bridal style.

Korra sighed and rubbed her head. "Asami stayed by your side the moment Shisui started healing you and has only left to use the bathroom. No matter what I, Mako, Bolin, or our parents said, she wouldn't sleep."

"She's quite devoted to you Sasuke." Senna smiled. "As your mother, I approve."

"Not only that, but she can be quite commanding." Tonraq nodded. "She is the type of girl I thought you were going to propose to back before you told us the truth."

Sasuke smiled. "Well, I'll admit that this isn't how I wanted you guys to meet." He walked over to his bed and sat Asami in it. "All things considered; I am glad you two approve." He brushed her hair out of her face.

"I've come to care a great deal about her." Tonraq and Senna shared a smile. "Anyways, what happened to Amon and the Equalist after I passed out." He looked out the window and heard some semblance of normalcy. "Republic City sees functional, so…"

Tenzin walked into the room. "I believe I can fill you in on that." He nodded. "Good to see that you're up Sasuke."

Sasuke nodded back. "Tenzin. Yes, please do fill me in."

"After you won, Amon's own men turned themselves in." Tenzin stated. "Those that weren't willing to do the same, were brought in by their comrades. Currently, every member of the Equalist, safe for Yuki, sit behind bars.

Even Amon who was in about the same shape as you but will eventually make a full recovery. Right now, it's rather peaceful in the city, but all is not well I'm afraid." The master walked towards the windows.

"You've been out for a few days. In that time, Lin has found out that the triads, Creeping Crystals, Red Monsoons, Agni Kais, and Triple Threats, have left the city. With the power vacuum left by the defeat of the Equalist, and disappearance of the triads, a new triad has risen.

They call themselves, the Advanced Triad. Given how fast they've mobilized to take advantage of the chaos, they must have been counting on your victory. In addition to that, without an abundance of benders, Republic City is overall operating at 20% capacity.

Electricity is sparse since we have little lightning benders, the metal benders are Lin and her four officers, and the damage left over by Amon has been slow to clean up. The people are scared and worried. Some still cling to Amon's views while others are ready to embrace your equality.

Considering the state of the city, it is a little too late. The council has been trying to reign in order, but it has been a steep, uphill battle. Many who followed Amon didn't realize how bad things could be without the comfort of benders."

"That is a lot to take in." Sasuke nodded. "It sounds like there is much to do. What about Korra and her bending?"

Korra sighed and shook her head. "Katara, in the time that she was here, tried everything to restore it, and Amon revealed that he can't reverse what he's done. Seems whatever spirit he met only gave him half the abilities of energy bending."

"That means Korra must go on her trip to restore her bending and hopefully learn energy bending." Sasuke nodded. "Alright, well I'll do what I can in the meantime to help restore order." He looked at Tenzin. "Is the council ready to consider my idea for the Shinobi Forces?"

"Ready?" Tenzin chuckled. "They were eager to approve it considering the current state of things; however, given limited resources, we can't grant you much. Not even a new building, but I figured the pro-bending arena and surrounding area would suffice."

"That it will." Sasuke noticed a fresh change of clothes and moved to grab it.

Senna said, "Sasuke, maybe you should rest a bit before jumping into this."

Tonraq nodded. "Your mother's right son. At least wait until your sister leaves on her trip."

Sasuke smiled. "I can see how you'd both think that, but I have no intention of leaping into this without all the information. It's clear there's much I need to learn, and I can learn it while Korra prepares for her trip."

He looked at Asami. "Also, like she didn't leave my side, I'm not leaving hers." He grabbed the clothes. "I'm just going to change." The Uchiha turned to his family. "Please keep an eye on her for me until I get back."

Korra nodded. "We got it Sasuke."

Sasuke left the room. He knew Korra would get her bending back, and in the meantime, he'd bring order to this city. The Uchiha was more than ready to rise to the challenge. Things may be hard, but it was the dawning of a new day.
