Two men leaped forward and bent up earth discs and hurled them at us. I shattered all the ones that came at me and Hinako redirected them with precision using ice. He narrowly avoided all of them, but suddenly we both were hit by blasts of water.
I swirled air up into a small tornado and Hinako filled it with fire and I launched it towards the two earth-benders infront of us kncoking them off of the platform.
"Not so fast, unless you want these hostages to die." A man shouted as he picked one up by the throat. I lowered my fists and Hinako tossed the man he picked up down.
The man smiled. "Weakness, how idealistic." He raised his fist and punched the hostage and threw him to the ground. He bent up some water and froze it into sharp shards and hovered them above all the hostages.
"Stop. Please let them go!" I screamed. He inched the ice closer and closer. HInako took a step forward and the man stabbed a piece of ice into one of the hostages.
"NO!" Hinako rushed him and the man sent the ice forward. Hinako threw his left hand up in an uppercut motion and all the ice exploded into snow. He the threw punch after punch each time bending larger amounts of water and fire alternating his hands. The man was barely managing to block the attacks.
"Kill them, kill all the hostages!" The man shouted from behind a wall of ice he created. I turned and sprinted towards the hostages as the men standing over them cocked back and were about to unleash their attacks. Everything went into slow motion and I swung my right fist towards them hoping to create a wall inbetween them. Instead the metal on my arm flew off and impailed into the hands of the men trying to kill the hostages.
It flung them into the stands and some of the other gang members trying to jump onto the arena. I looked at Hinako as he incased the man in ice. He stepped back and bent a whirlwind of fire which I increased in size with air and we used it to knock the remaining numbers of the gang into the water. Hinako sprinted and jumped off of the arena and dove into the water.
A moment later he shot back out of it and froze it solid. He landed back on the platform and ran to the man who had gotten stabbed by the ice. He picked him up and ran for the door.
He stopped and looked at me. "Brother." I nodded and he continued running. I walked over to the hostages and untied them all. As I finished with the last one Lin, Mako, Bolin, Jinora and Rina ran in followed by a large number of police officers.
"Hey guys." I waved to them. "Barely missed it. We managed to save everyone but on man was wounded." I lowered my head and fell to my knees. As I looked back up I saw that the metal was floating back towards me, so i lifted my right arm and the metal resumed its shape on my arm.
I looked at Lin. "I think all the gang members are still frozen in the water." I pointed to the edge of the platform and Lin ran over. She looked down and looked back at me stunned.
"How in the world did you manage to do that?" She said while looking back and forth between me and the water.
I shrugged. "Ask Hinako, he did it." I felt my body become heavy and forced myself to stand. "Oh no im not going to pass out for any number of days again."
I made it to my feet as my whole body shook, JInora ran over and helped me keep from falling over.
"We had no idea you guys left. Mako walked into Lins office and pulled her aside to tell her I guess." Jinora helped me over to a stretcher two of the officers were holding.
"I was almost knocked unconsious just by you two shoving me out of the way. It must have taken me 30 minutes to be able to stand again." Mako walked over to the stretcher as I laid down.
"Sorry about that. Can we head over to the hospital? I want to see how that guy is doing." I looked around. "Did anyone see Shade as they were coming in?"
JInora smiled. "Yeah she jumped onto Bolins shoulder as we ran up. I dont even think Hinako saw us as we passed he was more focused on carrying that man all the way."
"Well Lin, Mako Ill leave the arrest up to you guys. As for me onward to the hospital." I said jokingly to the officers that were carrying me.
Bolin walked over and placed Shade on my chest. "Hey your cat broke skin, like alot of skin im still bleeding can you ask her to never jump on my shoulder without warning me again?" Bolin looked serious and I looked down at Shade who curled up in a ball on my chest.
"Maybe later." I laughed and sleep took me once more.
A/N: I apologize for the short chapter but considering the last chapter was 2000 words long I hope you will forgive me. Fear not Chapter 13 will be back around 1500 to 1600 words long.
Also let me know what you think about this fight scene. It's the first one I have ever written and I think I did OK on it.
