Chapter 9 The Revelation

Its been a couple days since Korra joined the Fire Ferrets and since Lin was given a major warning though she didn't really listen.

And since Anakin and Padme arrived because someone had put a hit on her.

Now though.

Sean and Korra were at the Pro bending Arena since Korra had to train with her team very early in the morning.

"Seriously? You had to wake me up this early? I have two kids to take care of for crying out loud plus spiritual training." Korra said.

"We're the rookies so we get the worst time slot in the gym." Bolin said tossing a ball.

"And you're the rookiest one here. We gotta get you up to speed if we want to survive in the tournament. Deal with it." Mako said tossing her another ball making her grunt.

"You deal with it!" Korra said throwing it back harder making him grunt as he landed on his back.

"And he runs he runs his mouth again." Sean said making her grin as someone walked in.

"There are my little hardworking street urchins." He said walking to them. "An honor to finally meet you Avatar and Master Kruger."

"Who exactly are you now?" Sean asked curious.

"Butakha. I run this whole pro bending Shebang." Butakha said as he walked to give Mako some credits. "Heres your winnings from the last match." Butakha said making him grin about to take it. "Ah, ah, ah. But not so fast. First you owe me for the Avatar's new gear, and gym and equipment rentals for last month." Butakha said taking some of his money back.

"As if I never saw that coming. Just as bad as smugglers." Korra said.

"Eh, depends on the smuggler in question." Sean said.

"Rent on your Apartment, and a personal loan for groceries." Butakha said taking it all making him glare at Bolin.

"What? I'm a growing boy!" Bolin said causing Sean and Korra to laugh.

"The Least you could have done is tell them it was being used to cover expenses instead of just giving it and than taking it away." Sean said.

" Eh, same outcome. Oh, and one more small item of business. The Fire Ferrets need to Ante up 30,000 Credits for the championship pot." Butakha said shocking all of them.

"What?" Korra asked in shock.

"30,000 credits!" Bolin yelled.

"Sorry, kids. You've got till the end of the week to come up with the money or else you're out off the tournament." He said before leaving just as Korra and Sean approached the two.

"You two wouldn't happen to have a bank overflowing with credits would you?" Bolin asked as Korra looked at Sean with a grin making him sigh.

"Fine I'll pay." Sean said taking out a small pad.

"Being a council member has a pretty big pay. Plus we never really needed money anyway. We've always had people taking care of us." Korra said.

"Then I wouldn't say you had nothing." Mako said picking up a ball.

"Sorry I didn't mean..." Korra tried to say.

"No, it's all right, it's just...ever since we lost our parents, We've been on our own." Bolin said.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know." Korra said before she and Sean left.

Later

Korra smiled as she rocked Junior to sleep.

"Hey guys." Selena said walking to them.

"Selena? What are you doing here?" Sean asked.

"Oh, my uncle asked me to come here to investigate some disturbances." Selena said.

"What kind of disturbances?" Korra asked.

"Oh these people that have been known to attack Benders and then flee. He wants to know if this is related to the Sith coming back targeting Earth using ambush tactics." Selena said.

"I doubt that. That doesn't seem like them. They wouldn't just leave people alive. Killing is more of their thing." Sean said.

"Thats what I said but he still felt it best I investigate just incase." Selena said before they spotted Mako walking to them.

"Oooh, he's cute." Ikki said.

"Oh brother. What are you? 7?" Sean asked.

"8. Is that the firebender who drives you crazy Korra? Does he drive you crazy in a bad way? Or does he drive you crazy like you like him?" Ikki teased.

"Buzz off." Korra said airbending her into a wall as Jinora sighed.

"Why couldn't I be a single child? Oh yeah thats right the air nation is down in numbers and need to repopulate." Jinora said as Mako walked to them.

"Hey, Mako." Sean said.

"You guys seen Bolin since Practice?" Mako asked.

"No. We've been here since then to take care of the kids. Why you think something happened?" Korra asked.

"I don't know. Bolin has a knack for getting into stupid situation." Mako said.

"Oh yeah?" Sean asked.

"Lets just say he doesn't think as good as he could." Mako said.

"Have any idea who would want something from him or does have have some debt to repay?" Selena asked making him think before widening his eyes.

"Oh no you idiot." Mako said.

"What?" Selena asked.

"What do you guys know about the Triads?" Mako asked.

"Not much other than they've been getting less and less common due to the Legion's laws." Sean said.

"Well, word on the streets is they've been gearing up to collect more members by promising them lots of cash. Bolin must have gotten dragged into this since he knows we need money." Mako said.

"Why? I just paid for your entry fee." Sean said.

"For us in particular. You know we don't have anyone to rely on. You guys got everything. Rich powerful families in league with the Legion and Jedi. We got nothing." Mako said.

"Oh." Korra said.

"Ok so say he did take an offer by them. Where would they be?" Sean asked.

Later

Sean and Korra left the kids with the others while he, Mako, Korra, Anakin and Selena were just outside the Triple Threats main base.

"Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't there be guards or something outside?" Anakin asked.

"Oh yeah. Something ain't right." Sean said as he kicked down the door seeing the place was wrecked.

"Whoa. Something big went down here." Selena said.

"This was very recent." Sean said looking around.

"How can you tell?" Anakin asked.

"You can tell by the damage and dents around. If it was days ago some of this stuff wouldn't look so fresh. And the air has some leftover smells of fire and water. This happened from my guess 20 minutes ago." Sean said before going to a counsel.

"Think you can access any security recordings?" Korra asked.

"If we're lucky." Sean said before a holorecording appeared showing the Triple threats being attacked by those in strange masks and gear.

"Who the heck are they?" Anakin asked.

"Those are equalists. Amon's henchmen." Mako said.

"Amon? That Anti-Bending guy with the mask? I've heard about him when we first arrived." Sean said.

"Those are the guys my uncle sent me to monitor. The ones who keep attacking benders and then retreating." Selena said.

"What do they want with Bolin and the Triple threats?" Korra asked.

"Nothing good I imagine." Anakin said.

"I can't believe Bolin got himself into this mess." Mako said.

"Relax, we'll find him. We just gotta look is all." Selena said.

"And I know where to find the answer." Sean said.

Later

"So why exactly are we in the park? Shouldn't we go looking for Bolin?" Anakin asked.

"Thats exactly what we're doing. We're waiting on a protestor Jinora and I met when we first arrived. He's gonna lead us to them." Sean said.

"Oh I get it. Thats actually clever." Selena said as they waited.

"So why was Bolin with them in the first place. They clearly didn't just show up because he's a bender." Korra said.

"Well...We used to do some work for them back in the day." Mako said shocking them.

"What?" Sean asked narrowing his eyes behind his mask.

"Relax, all we did was numbers for them. I didn't do anything violent or whatever. I didn't want someone else going through what I did by my own hands." Mako said.

"Why though?" Anakin asked.

"Do you have any idea what it's like growing up on the streets?" Mako asked.

"I was a slave 10 years ago. I think my situation was worse." Anakin said.

"Oh. Well, we had nothing. I did what I had to do to survive and protect my little brother. I hated every second of it till we started this." Mako said.

"Do what you gotta do." Sean said.

"Yeah. And I hated every second of it." Mako said before.

"EQUALITY NOW! EQUALITY NOW!"

Sean growled annoyed seeing him again.

"There he is." Sean said.

"It's time for the..." The Protestor said before seeing Sean and his group walking to him. "It's you again! YOU CANNOT SILENCE ME JEDI SCUM!"

Only for him to shriek as Sean pulled him down hard.

"Will you shut up. A friend of ours got grabbed last night by Equalists so you better start talking." Sean said.

"I don't know what you're talking about." The Protestor said before gasping as he started choking.

"Do I look like I'm joking. I can turn you in for aiding in kidnapping and put you in prison for the rest of your days. SO TALK!" Sean yelled as he breathed again.

"I don't know anything I swear! I just pass these out." The Protestor said showing fliers.

"Old school fliers huh?" Korra asked reading one.

"Witness the Revelation tonight, 9:00. What is this?" Anakin asked.

"I don't know. No one does except Amon and his top troops. I don't know what happened to your friend. Honest."

Sean growled before using the force to shred his clothes till he was in pink hearted boxers making him shriek running off.

"What a pissant." Sean said.

"Hey, check this out." Selena said showing the fliers. "Notice how on the back they all have some piece of a map in the corner right here?" Selena asked.

"Yeah so?" Anakin asked before she put them together showing a full location.

"I know this spot." Mako said.

"Good." Sean said.

Later

Everyone was geared up in robes to get into the place.

"So remind me again why don't we just call in the Calvary? The Jedi or Legion army?" Mako asked.

"We need to know exactly what this revelation is. And sending in the army would prevent us knowing. I did send for some Jedi that are already here but they didn't respond." Sean said.

"Oh well." Anakin said as they approached the bouncer.

"This is a restricted party."

"We're allowed in." Sean said using the Jedi mind trick before they went in.

"Oh wow." Anakin said seeing thousands of people.

"I know people have a reason to hate Benders but still." Selena said.

"Hatred unites everyone to a common cause. Whatever that is we're about to find out." Sean said as they made it to the stands to watch from on high.

"Please welcome your hero, your savior, Amon!"

The Crowd cheered as Amon and his followers appeared on the stage. Sean however narrowed his eyes feeling something off.

"My quest for Equality began many years ago. When I was a boy, my family and I lived on a farm. We weren't rich, and none of us were benders. This made us very easy targets for the firbender who extorted my father. One day, My father confronted this man, But when he did that firebender took my family from me then he took my face. I've been forced to hide behind a mask ever since." Amon said.

"Hmm." Sean said listening to this story.

"As many of you know the Avatar has Returned along with the Heir of Revan." Amon said making people boo which made Korra cover herself up more. "And if they were here they would say that both Bending and the Jedi bring balance to all. But they only thing they both have in common is suffering. Both have been the cause of every war in Every Era." Amon said making people cheer.

"These guys are idiots. We're not the cause of suffering. Sith are." Selena said.

"I don't think they see a difference or most likely Amon doesn't know the full story. Probably skimmed through history and came to a blind conclusion." Sean said.

"But all that is about to Change. As many here know the Spirits have acted as Guardians of our world. And they have spoken to me. They say the Avatar has failed the Earth and will soon fail the Galaxy." Amon said.

"Ok this guy's is full of shit." Sean said.

"They have given me a power to make equality a reality. The Power to take person's bending and connection to the Force...Permanently." Amon said shocking the group.

"Thats not possible. Theres no way." Korra said.

"He's insane." Sean said as someone was brought out.

"Now for a demonstration. Please welcome Lightning Bolt Zolt, Leader of the Triple threat Triad, and one of the most notorious criminals in Republic City." Amon said as the people booed him.

"Ah boo yourself" Zolt yelled as others came out tied up including Bolin.

"There he is." Mako said.

"Hold up." Sean said before seeing two Jedi. "Thats why they didn't answer." Sean said leaving.

"And this is Jedi Knight Quincy. A Jedi who will no doubt be part of a war his order starts." Amon said.

"We are not warmongers! We're peace keepers." Quincy said.

"So you say but the fact is your order is responsible for so much war and death. And now." Amon said grabbing his head before he started groaning loudly before letting go as he was set loose before trying to use the force. But shockingly couldn't.

"No." Quincy said in horror.

"Your connection to your power is go..." Amon tried to say before force lightning hit him making everyone scream before Sean came out and blasted the equalists back.

"Get Bolin and the other one." Sean said as they freed him.

"What about us?" Zolt asked in fear.

"Not my problem." Sean said as they left.

"So he was here the whole time. Good." Amon said.

Later

Thrawn was talking to his Elite guard before the others showed up.

"I was just about to send troops to look for you. Did you find your friend." Thrawn said.

"Uh yeah." Selena said disturbed as Tarkin walked to them before seeing the look on Sean's face.

"Sean? Whats wrong?" Tarkin asked concerned.

"Uh...We were at an Equalist rally...And saw Amon." Sean said.

"And?" Tarkin asked.

"He can take peoples bending and their connection to the force away...For good." Korra said.

"Thats...Thats not Possible. Only Avatar Aang has ever had the ability to take someone's bending away. And you can't just disconnect someone from the force against their will." Thrawn said.

"Tell that to Quincy. His connection is gone...For good." Sean said making them frown.

"We believe you. I don't know how Amon has achieved such a power. But one thing is Certain. No one is safe with him around." Tarkin said looking at the City.

"And thats not the only thing. I think he's come a blind conclusion that we're responsible for every single war. He never once mentioned the Sith or anything else. Mandalor even though according to my father's messages were influenced to start that war by another Sith." Sean said.

"And that information is common now. So...He's blindly making accusations without fully knowing the truth." Thrawn said.

"Just like Lin calling us Vigilantes." Korra said.

"Lin is making blind accusations because she tries to make sense of what she does not truly understand. Amon since he didn't mention the Sith is making blind accusations." Tarkin said.

"So how do we deal with him?" Anakin asked

"For now we can do nothing but wait. Theres nothing more we can do." Thrawn said.

Authors Note: Oh boy now Amon hates both Benders and Jedi because in his mind he views them as the cause of suffering in every era. The question is this is making blind accusation...Or did someone make him think that way? Only time can tell. Next Chapter is gonna be full of surprises in ways no one saw coming.
