A new day emerges upon Republic City. Tuei wakes from his newly fresh room. It certainly was a better morning compared to the others he had in his old home. He went downstairs to the main quarters, appearing to be the only one in the house, with his aunt not around. "I'm guessing she must've started her sheltering job." he thought. "Maybe I'll just take a look around the whole town." He steps outside to experience the great sensation of the vast open city "Wow. I'm feeling this might grow on me." He takes a few strolls down until he approaches an open park among the bustling buildings. The ponds were clear and reflecting the shine of the sun, several fish were swimming under the surface. The boy was sinking in the moment of calmness. However, that relaxation was cut short when a certain individual yells out a sermon for a certain movement. "Attention to you all! Are you tired of living under the tyranny of benders? Then Join the Equalists! For too long the bending elite of this city have forced non-benders to live as lower class citizens! Join Amon! And together, we will tear down this bending establishment!" Another voice intervened, sounding female, opposes to this man's statement. "What are you talking about? Bending is the coolest thing in the world!" Tuei notices a bold, ponytailed girl with a blue tank top and gray pelt, seemingly to be from the Water Tribe. The boycotter scoffed in response. "Lemme guess, you're a bender? I bet you love to knock me off this platform with some water-bending, huh?" the Water Tribe girl retorted. "I'm thinking about it." the man quickly accused her of such a rude gesture. "This is what's wrong with this city! Benders like this girl only use their power to oppress us!" This in turn causes a couple of shunning eyes to be directed at the girl, all except for Tuei. Tuei doesn't think too harshly of benders, believing that benders must've had their reasons to do things for the good of everyone. The tribe girl wasn't taking the dispute too well. "What? I'm not oppressing anyone! You're oppressing yourselves!" the protester merely expresses his sarcasm. "That didn't make any sense." The girl had enough of their persistent ranting and walks off with her polar-bear dog in tow. Tuei in the distance, felt uneasy with the recently occurred conflict and attempts to follow the water-bender.
The Water Tribe girl was heading further down into the city districts, hoping for directions. She then spots two elders in front of a shop talking to each other, and approaches them for help. "Excuse me, I think I'm lost. How do I get to Air Temple Island from here?" The elder woman bluntly pointed southward. "Just head down this street." As the girl was about to resume her venturing, a fancy car arrived in a loud pace, and three barbaric men step out. The woman whispered frantically, "You should get moving, young lady. It isn't safe." The barbaric leader looms on a timid phonograph vendor, "Please tell me you have my money, Mr. Chung. Or else I can't guarantee I can protect your fine establishment." One of his partners lights a small fire in the palm of his hand as intimidation. The vendor Chung hesitatingly answered. "I'm sorry. Business has been slow. Just take my phonographs." The fire-bender merely throws the phonographs away and burns them to cinders, with the leader threatening Chung further. "My friend here is not a music lover. Give me the money, or else-" He was then interrupted by a female voice from behind. "Or else what, hoodlum?" The three turned to see the water tribe girl standing before. They each gave a laugh upon the first sight of her. "Since you're obviously fresh off the boat, let me explain a couple things. You're in Triple Threat Triad territory. And we're about to put you in the hospital." The Triad leader mocked. The girl snarks back at the thugs. "You're the ones who are gonna need a hospital. And for your sake, I hope there's one nearby." The three were aggravated and tempting to attack "Who do you think you are?" he growled. The water-bender cracks her knuckles, "Why don't you come find out?" The thug suddenly bends a water bullet from an unseen water skin under his coat. The tribe girl stops the water easily with one hand and sends it right back at the gangster, freezing the water over his head. His balance lost, the man stumbles forward toward the heroine, who hits him against the head with a back spinning kick, due to which he slams head first against the golden ornament on their car. The ice around his head shatters as he sags down. The earthbender gangster, enraged by what happened to his friend, charges her by jumping up. However, before he could land and earthbend, she extends the portion of earth where he was going to land on, catapulting him high into the air. The elderly woman and man at the fruit stand press their faces tightly against each other and their gaze following the flying earthbender.
"What just happened?" The old woman uttered. "She can earthbend?" The elder man added. The two lower their gaze as they see the earthbender falling on a wire suspended from one building to the other. From the wire, the man is catapulted again a wooden advertising board, falls down on the pentice of a shop, and is thrown into a tapestry, which rips under his weight. The man falls down onto a shop display before flopping on the ground where he lies still. Seeing two of his allies defeated, the last crook aggressively bends a large fire stream at the girl. She jumps forward, deflecting the man's fire by holding two small flames in her palms. As she reaches the man, she grabs his hands. The man screams in fright. The elders become even more surprised. "She can firebend too?" the lady shocked. "Could she be-?" the man predicted in awe. The girl towers over the three defeated Triads in triumph, "Got an idea about who I am now, chumps?" she bantered, declaring herself as the Avatar. A huge roaring was heard closing in, the Avatar looks to her right to notice the car and evades from its speed. "Come on!" The waterbender orders his two friends to get in and escape, but the heroine is determined to apprehend them. "You're not getting away!"
As she was about to run after them, a few quick strands of silk-like threads were shot and attached to the car, pulling them back in place. "What!? We can't move!" the waterbending leader exclaimed. The Triads, along with the Avatar, looked up to see a colored costumed person soaring above, swinging on the thread and landing on the car in a flexible pose. "Who is that?" The old man peeped. "Now, now, fellas. If a lady asks you not to take her lightly, you better comply to that like real gentlemen." the masked figure joked. "What the-? Who the heck are you?" the leader freaked out. "Me? I could be a bender who just offers a hand in any way he can. Or I could just be a guy in a mask trying to make a difference in life. But I know one thing. I am... Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!" the masked boy commented. The Avatar felt surprised by his sudden appearance, and at the same time, intrigued by his introduction. "Spider-Man...?" she wondered. The firebender gangster shunned in fright. "Spider!? Eek! Those bugs creep me out!" He raises his hand and attempts to hurt the vigilante with a fire strike, Spider-Man launches a web from his wrists that extinguishes the flame. "C'mon, now I'm hurt. Spiders aren't bugs, you know." he said, flinging him through the air and trapping him on a nearby lamppost. The earthbender controls a boulder across his left side and directs it at the web-slinger, Spider-Man simply evades it by ducking back, missing by a few inches on his face. The flinging rock was heading towards the shop were the two elders are in shock. He then webs the boulder from making a bigger impact at the shop, saving them in the process. "You should really watch where you aim that thing. Just my advice." He quipped as he ensnares him into the car with webbing. The waterbender brashly uses his water bullet on him to no avail, as Spider-Man uses a piece of the car as a shield to block his water. "Wash your windows?" he teased, and bashes him out of the car with the metal. The Triads have now been completely incapacitated, and Spider-Man leaps off the front of the car. The Avatar was stunned by how he held his own against the trio of benders. "Whoa. That sure was a neat trick you put on there." she voiced out. "Well, you know. All part of the service." said Spider-Man. "You new around here? I am too." the tribe girl remarked. The web-head humbled, "You could tell, huh?" Their chat was suddenly interrupted when they heard a blaring sound. They then notice a huge airship with a voice erupting out, "Police! Stay where you are!" and three men spring out harnessing their metal cables. The ponytailed girl gazed in awe. "Cool! Metalbenders!" Spider-Man, however, isn't too fond of their arrival. "Uh, gotta run. It's been fun!" and zips away from sight. "Wait! They could help! Don't leave!" The Avatar hollered. She couldn't get him to stop and was left on her own to meet these enforcers. "Uh, caught these guys for you, officers." she signaled to the metalbenders. "You're coming with us, too." The gruffy captain demanded. The girl was taken aback by his attitude. "What do you mean? They were smashing up the shop!" she insisted. The officer quickly berated her on that statement. "From the looks of it, you smashed up a lot more than that." His squad moved in to apprehend her, much to her refusal, "Wait! You can't arrest me! Let me explain!" she pleaded. Her words seemingly aren't getting through to the police. "You can explain yourself all you like down at headquarters." The captain relented. Forced to abide, she rode onto her polar-bear dog, being taken into custody...
