-SUNDAY AFTERNOON-

Well, my parents were proud to find out that I found a new job, a little worried but proud. Mom was glad to see me taking responsibility for myself and Dad, well; he just found it a bit too coincidental that I found a job with Mako and Bolin. I have to agree though, it was a bit coincidental. On the bright side, I now have a job to keep paying for my car, but it still wasn't working so Dad drove it work to let one of his mechanic friends take a look at it.

Mom was at work again, I swear she never gets a break, and I am stuck home. I've gotten kind of use to it though. As I enjoyed listening to the music on the radio I decided to clean house. It's time Mom got a break from cleaning everything on her days off.

I swayed to the beat of the music and began to hum

"This is the moment, tonight is the night."

My fingers began to tap against counter while the other one wiped it down.

"We'll fight 'til it's over, so we put our hands up, like the ceiling can't hold us. Like the ceiling can't hold us." (A/N: Can't Hold Us by Macklemore; forever my favorite by him)

Music always did make the work fun. I stepped outside to throw the trash out, but was too focused on the music that I hadn't noticed the cyclist coming my way. It was too late for me move so I just stood there waiting for impact. My arms were out in front of me and I raised them up to my face. Instead of being hit like I was expecting I heard the cyclist shout something at me.

"Hey, thanks for the ramp!" He was thanking me? For a ramp? What ramp?

I put my arms down and right in front of me was this huge ramp. I didn't do that, did I? No, I couldn't have. I'm a waterbender not an earthbender. I looked to see if anyone else was around but there wasn't. Or- Or could it have been me? But, that doesn't make sense in any way. Only the Avatar can do that. I'm sure I'm not the Avatar; it had to be someone else.

I shook my head and went back inside. All these thoughts began to run through my head. The conversation my parents had, the dream, the ramp. Were they connected to each other or is my mind just playing tricks on me?

I went back outside and sat on the porch. I looked down at the grass and just stared at it. Maybe. I waved my hand over the grass, trying to mimic the movements of an Earth bender. Nothing. I should've known.

-NEXT DAY-

Well, my car was still in the shop and I'm riding with Bolin and Mako.

"Oh, hey! Here you might want your necklace back now before we forget!" Bolin placed it in my hands with a wide grin on his face.

"Oh, thanks, guys."

"No problem," Bolin was a big ball of fun. Never down always happy.

"So, Korra, what's wrong with your car?" Mako finally asked.

"Trying to get rid of me, huh," I saw he was getting ready to apologize," I'm kidding. I'm not sure really. I didn't ask my dad about it yesterday."

"Well, as long as it's in the shop we can keep giving you a ride," Bolin and his cheesy grins.

The rest of the car ride was silent with a few occasional glances at one another. Once we arrived at school Mako went his way and Bolin and I went ours. Before entering class I spotted Emma walking towards us.

"Hey, Korra," she ran up to us with a grin," I heard you joined the Pro-bending team! That is so awesome! Now we can all finally play." She took a look at Bolin, "Bolin, right? Earthbender for the boys' team?"

He popped his collar and cleared his throat," Yes, madam, that would be me. Bolin is my name and Pro-bending is my game."

I smacked him on the back of the head," Don't get too cocky now. I bet the girls' team will be even better."

"You've got that right. Well, I've got to go. I'll see you guys later!" She said before waving goodbye.

"I like her already. Her name is Emma, right?"

"Oh, does somebody have a thing for Emma," he began to babble looking for a response but I shoved him into the classroom," Come on, lover boy, don't want to be late for class."

"I rather skip than have to take the test Mr. Galeski is going to give us," he huffed.

"I do think most of would rather prefer to be drowned in Tahno's hair gel than take his test."

He chuckled and gave me a high five," Nice one, Korra."

-SKIP TO LUNCH-

"Wow, it's packed inside today," Bolin stated as he tried scanning the lunch room for a free tale.

"I don't think we'll be finding a seat inside today." The lunch room was so crowded I kept getting shoved by other people trying to get by. Where was Mako now that I remember. He's usually the first one before us," Hey, where's Mako at?"

"He was in Gym, right? Probably stayed to talk to Coach about Pro-bending. Hey, let's go eat outside at the picnic tables. It's nice out today why waste it."

After we shoved and swerved through the huge crowd of students we finally made it outside, food unharmed. I never noticed how, well, pretty, the school was from the outside. Tulips, roses, and daises surrounded the building walls. Trees were spread out through the courtyard helping shade the students from the sun. A small fountain was in the center with a statue of Avatar Aang and friends, arms linked with one another.

"Wow, it's so nice out here. I don't know why people would prefer eating inside," I gasped as we sat down.

Bolin took a bite of his burger, "I guess they can't appreciate the beauty of nature."

I took a bite of my apple as I looked around when I saw something that caught my attention; a group of students dancing to music from a more modern looking boom box. Didn't Bolin say Mako was a breakdancer? My thoughts were suddenly interrupted when the music stopped and switched to static. The boys started playing with the buttons until a man's voice started to speak through the boom box and the PA system.

"Good afternoon, my fellow Equalists. This is your leader, Amon. As you have heard, the Republic Council has voted to make me public enemy number one, proving once again that the bending oppressors of this city will stop at nothing to quash our revolution. But we cannot be stopped. Our numbers grow stronger by the day. You no longer have to live in fear. The time has come for benders to experience fear. There has also been word that the Avatar has arrived in Republic City. Fair warning for you, Avatar, any attempts to stop my movement will be useless and I WILL find you and show you what I am capable of."

The broadcast was done and there was nothing left but static. Everyone was left in shock, no one made a single sound. The only thing to be heard was the water coming from the fountain. Soon everyone started to whisper, but I wasn't able to make out what they said.

"That was unexpected."

Bolin spit out his food while I almost choked on mine.

"Sorry to scare you guys, I didn't mean," Mako set his tray on the table.

"It's ok, bro, the broadcast just got everyone a little jumpy."

"Who is Amon?" they both look at me," What?"

"You haven't heard about Amon? Wow, where have you been?" Bolin slammed his fist on the table playfully.

"The Southern Water Tribe? Where I'm from?"

"Oh, right, forgot. Amon's some equalist leader guy who doesn't really like benders and kind of wants to get rid of them to create equality amongst everyone or whatever."

"Didn't you hear what he said? The Avatar is in Republic City here in Republic City. I heard the Order never did find the Avatar."

"Well it looks like they've come to visit. I wonder what they'd be doing here," hearing this made me think back to the conversation I heard between my parents. Maybe it's time I ask about that.

-OFF SOMEWHERE ELSE-

"Sir, are you sure the Avatar is here in Republic City?" asked a man as he turned away from his computer.

A man donning a hooded cape turned around, revealing his masked face," I am certain. One of my contacts has informed me the Avatar has moved and arrived here. The Avatar has arrived early. It looks like we'll have to accelerate our plans.
