There was a crowd surrounding the Capitals' Statue of freedom. They were there just standing around like they had been for hours waiting. It didn't matter how long the wait was because they weren't going to leave. They didn't have to wait any longer as a masked figure appeared on top of the statue. Cheers, applause, and whistles erupted through out the crowd as screens popped up all over within the crowd.
The person holds up a hand silencing them. "Once again I stand before you ready to spread the truth about the evils of this world. And once again you stand before me ready to receive. Today however I plan on doing something a little different. I'm tired off being brushed aside and falling prey to the avatar and her friends attempts to stop me. Today marks the day of my plan Red Lotus. It will mark the start of the spirits world destruction along with this lowly world. I will be the one that leads all of you through this illusion called earth."
A portal opened above the figure's head. A caged dragon spirit came into view and the crowd started to chant. "Amon! Amon! Amon! Amon!"
"I'm going to remind the citizens of this pathetic attempt of a bridge town just how deadly spirits can be." A high pitched sounded echoed out having no affect on the people but the spirit bang around in his cage looking for a escape as it roared out its cries.
"I'm tired of not being heard." Amon mumbled so no one heard him as he raised his hand.
"So I'll just make the world listen." He said just as quiet.
He snapped his fingers and the spirit was released. It screeched falling into the statue as it flew off towards the city trying to escape the sound.
Amon sighed resting his hands on his window as he looked at the city. A small smile laced its way across his face as he watched the spirits wither I pain. It was delightfully accomplishing that part of this plan was going together beautifully. The smile grew when he heard the front door open and close. A kiss on the back of his neck had him humming in approval and relaxing back into the arms that circled around him.
"Have I told you how brilliant you are? You have no idea how delightful my drive here was as I watched the city's beloved filthy creatures wither in pain." The man said as he kissed his neck again.
"Does your wife know where you are?" Amon asked smile gone primal.
He laughed lightly as the man released him with a huff. He turned leaning against the glass as he watched the man loosen his tie and sit down on the bed.
"Why must you always bring up that woman?" He asked rubbing his bald head.
"I will bring it up until there is nothing to bring up." Amon rolled his eyes as he went to straddle his lap.
The man sighed long and hard. "A beautiful night of chaos and you had to go and make it dull. You know the Acolyte name is to great to give up."
"Yes but Pema." Amon said the name like it left a bad taste in his mouth. "Doesn't make you happy."
"Sometimes we do things not for our happiness but because we have to. You of all people should know that." Amon grunted his acknowledgment with a roll of his of his eyes. "Anyway can you believe she had the audacity to ask me for money to help pay the brats surgery or something."
That was the only thing Amon couldn't put against her. It was not her fault or the child's, that it was born with cancer. It was bad enough that Pema and Zaheer had to make the boy so people wouldn't get suspicious and now it had cancer. But Pema was not stupid she knew that it wasn't really even a marriage even way. A roar echoed out breaking his train of thought.
"What was that?" Zaheer asked trying to look out the window but failing when Amon pushed him down on the bed.
"The seed to our plan." Amon said attaching his lips to his Zaheer's.
"What took you so long?!" Tahno yelled as he speed away from the curve when Korra and Opal jumped in the truck.
"Why didn't you just jump off the damn balcony?! Fuck!" He swerved to miss a car.
"Because we don't need everyone knowing I'm the damn avatar! Shut the hell up and just drive!" Korra yelled back as Opal and her changed into their body suit. There was know way they was fighting in a dress.
"What's wrong Juicy?" Opal asked taking the little dragon spirit into her arms.
"It probably has something to do with the sound I'm hearing. I can tolerant it and I'm blocking it from Naga. If you fuse with him with he should be just fine." Korra said as she activated her mask.
Opal nodded as she bonded with Juicy and activated their mask.
"Alright so Tenzin is taking out whatever is making the noise. It's affecting all the spirits who can hear it. Mako along with the rest of the time are trying to get a handle on the situations and keep everyone calm. I'm going to go help once I get you guys close enough." Tahno said speeding up.
"Close to what?" Korra asked as she rolled down the sunroof.
"Triads broke into a top secret spirit research lab that not even Lin knew about." Tahno said as he made a sharp turn.
"Alright let us know when Tenzin is successful." Opal said moving to the roof of the car.
"We'll let you know if we need back up." Korra said before she existed through the opening.
"It's this way I can feel the energy field." Korra said and Opal nodded in agreement.
Opal turned her eyes on one of the tallest buildings in Republic City. "Really? You can see this building from almost everywhere and we've never felt this amount of spirit energy before?" Opal said as they flew closer to the source.
"Which means they have a cloaking device we've never seen before." Korra said trying to sense anything beyond the energy shield.
A roar echoed out as a huge dragon spirit flew over them knocking into some of the smaller buildings as it went.
"Just what is going on around here!?" Opal shrieked as thy watched the spirit go.
"Don't worry about it. I'll go handle that while you the break in." Korra said as Naga bounded after the spirits trail of unaware destruction. "Try not to get shot this time."
Opal tsked as Korra took off after the two spirits. "She might as well just tell me not to go anywhere." Opal huffed as she continued on her way.
Tenzin sighed as he flipped and dodged the fusers that came at them. "Tell me again why you didn't just destroy it by yourself. When you had the chance."
"Oh yeah! And just get killed in the process while I'm surrounded by the enemy? How about you start moving your bonded asses and get to work!" Lin yelled as she shot at the fusers charging her.
"Yeah yeah we hear you. You know we don't like killing spirits." Tenzin said still easily invading them.
"Then just knock them out old man. That's what I've been doing. Damn has it really been that long sense you've been in the fight old man?" Lin grunted as she reloaded. She bounded back as one came up from the ground.
"I'm not old." Tenzin mumbled. "And I stay behind the scenes now."
He started to blow them back with air. He knocked them around into in each other. Wan Shi Tong spoke up letting him know he could be a little rougher. The spirits would be unharmed.
"Oh now you tell me." Tenzin grumbled at the spirit who he was bonded with.
Once the spirits were taken care of they went up to the machine. "Well turn it off." Tenzin motioned towards the machine.
"What? What in your bald head makes you think I know how to turn it off. I only saw Amon snap his fingers and it was on." Lin said motioning around with her hands.
"Dammit!" She said kicking it.
"The fuck! Stop kicking it you brut!" Tenzin cried out incredulously.
"Well I don't see you coming up with any ideas!" She shot back.
"Be quiet I got it!" Shi shouted silencing. He held their arms out and encased it in a bubble. "Lin I need you to get back some. I'm not sure how big the after blast will be."
Once Lin was out of Shi increased the amount of spirit energy in the sphere. They smiled right before it blew trapping themselves in a ball of air. Lin walked back over and patted their shoulder.
"Well statue's gone but good job."
"We hated that statue. It's not like that bastard deserved it anyway." Tenzin said when they separated and Shi squeaked in agreement.
Naga tried to get the dragon's attention and calm it down as it cried out. The only reply that she received was a spray of fire that she easily dodged.
"Naga!" Korra yelled as she came up beside her partner. "Of course it would be a spirit of one of the most dangerous elements. How about we show him how ice can burn just as much as fire."
Naga's eyes gleamed as she shot off towards the beast with Korra on her heels. Korra shot water at the dragons wings and Naga took control. She froze its wings trailing ice down to its tail. The dragon dropped instantly glaring at them over its shoulder. It shrunk its size as it flew breaking the ice some. A low hiss emitted from it as korra and Naga landed in from of it. It broke free from the rest of the ice and regained some of its size but not the full instant. Tired of bumping into things from its crowded surroundings.
"Well I hope we can talk now." Korra said her eyes glowing white.
She took careful steps toward the dragon. Working her way into its mind. She was trying to get him to see her spirit but he kept his eyes closed and backed away. She could tell he had been hurt behind his physical form. He wanted nothing more than to go home and escape humans. She could see he was crying. Korra stopped short as she noticed it's scales start to crackle and turn black. Fire slipped from the cracks kissing the air.
"No" She whispered before Naga tackled her to the ground.
The explosion rumbled through the ground for at least a mile out. When Naga finally let her up he was no where in site.
"We've got to hurry or else he's going to die."
