Hey everybody, I hope you'll are enjoying my stories. I had just watched the trailer to the new season of the Legend of Korra. And I also got news that they'l have some special guest voice actors like Steven Yeun, who plays as Glenn in, aherm aherm, (Narrator voice) AMC's, The Walking Dead. cough cough. Excuse me. But yeah, yeah I hope it is going to be a knock out like the first season. (I'm talking about both shows).

Anyways, continued from last chapter.

"Who could've done this," Mako asked out loud as he looked at the only links that could tell him where his brother is.

"I don't know. But obviously they didn't want them to talk," Korra said as she examined the bodies.

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

"Hey don't worry. We are going to find your brother, and if we don't pull it together now we'll never forgive ourselves."

As Korra finished telling Mako words of encouragment, the Guardian came back holding two harpoon shells.

"The only thing the shooter lift were the shells, but they have the ensignia, 'Deadshot,' on them," the Guardian said.

"Wait a minute. I've heard of that name. Its a code title name for this hired gun. Supposibly he never misses a shot," Mako pointed out.

"How did you know about that," Korra asked suspecouslly.

"When me and Bolin were younger, we sort of had some business with the Triads. We only ran numbers and info, and Deadshot was one of the guys the Triads wanted info on."

Clar wasn't going to judge Mako for his past actions, but if the Equalists hired this sort of shooter then Republic City is in grave danger.

"I need to get these shells to the police, and see if they can find a led," Clar said.

"What about my brother?"

"With the police's help, we maybe able to find him sooner."

"The police can't help. They already have their hands fool in this sort of neighborhood. We need to find him."

Clar could understand Mako's desperate mood, so he decided to contact the police about the murder site and get a move on with Mako and Korra. They needed to pick up on the trail the Equalist truck and motercycles headed. The Guardian led the Avatar and firebender into this factory district, and there was a crowd entering through the door.

The Guardian used his hearing to listen in on a few people entering.

"You can't enter without an invetation."

"Oh come on man. I'm really intrested in what Amon has to offer to us non-benders. you got to let us in."

"I'm sorry. But due to security reasons, we need all audiance to have this pamphlet. Until you somehow get one, you can enter."

The Guradian saw the pamphlet and looked around to see who he could pick out from. Clar din't want to steal, but he needed to find out where Bolin was. He looked and saw the same speaker he and Korra ran into in their first day in Republic City. Then Clar used his speed to take away the invetation from the street public speaker. He then got some extra clothes from a donation rack for Korra and Mako to wear to conseal themselves. He handed the items over to the two of them.

"Take these. I need you two to be the eye in the audiance."

"What well you be doing?"

"I'm going to see what else they're hiding."

Clar then ran onto the roof without anyone noticing. He looked back to see if Korra and Mako were able to get in. He saw that Korra was holding on to Mako's arm. For some odd reason, Clar felt a twinge of jelousy.

'Pfft. Like she would have a thing for Mako. Wait a second, why am I getting upset,' Clar thought to himself. As Korra and Mako entered the factory warehouse, the speaker that Clar took the pamphlet from was trying despretly to get inside.

He shook it off and went inside. Clar was looking through the roof window, and he saw a stage with a few Equalist henchmen standing there. Then someone started speaking through the entercome.

"The moment you all have been waiting for. You leader. Your savior. AMON!"

Then on the stage opened up and escelated, and there were more Equalist usual henchmen. There was a masked man with two fighting sticks on his back, and a slightly big man in armor with a large ax hanging in his back. In the center was none other than the hooded masked man who was behind the Equalist regime.

Amon stepped foward to the microphone and started to talk about how he became obsessed into getting rid of bending. How he and his family were being tormented by a firebender, and he killed his family leaving him with a burned face. Clar wanted to see for himself if the burns were true.

'What I wouldn't give for an ability to see through objects,' Clar thought. (A/N: Here you'll notice, Clar hasn't gained x-ray vision yet.)

Amon kept talking about how bending is the cause of every war and suffering that has come through out history. Then he brings about how he well clinse the world of bending.

"Since the dawn of time, the Spirits have watched over this world. Now they have gifted me with the ability to remove ones bending, perminatlly," said Amon.

'That can't be. The Avatar has been the only one to show that feat,' Clar thought.

"For an example, here is Lightning Bolt Zolt. Leader of the Triple Threat Triad, and one of Republic City's notorius criminals," Amon said as Equalists brought up the gangsters that they had captured recently. Among the prisoners was Bolin.

"To make it fair, I'm going to give Zolt the chance to fight for his impurity."

Then Zolt was released from his bondage, and he then tried hitting Amon with his fire blasts. As Amon kept evading every blast, he also was closing his distance between Zolt and himself. Zolt was getting very irritated by Amon's evasive monuver, so he started charging lightning and aimed it towards Amon. Amon already Zolt charging lightning, so he was ready to intercept his arm and twist to an angle where he had Zolt's back and on his knees. Then Amon placed his hand to Zolt's forehead, and to the audiance's surprise, including Clar, the lightning was dying down just to fire and then to no fire at all.

Amon released Zolt from his grip. Zolt tried throwing fire at Amon, but there was no fire that came out.

"What did you do to me?"

"Your firebending is gone, forever," Amon said out loud for the audiance to hear.

Clar wasn't even sure what Amon said was true. Sure he did take away the man's ability to bend, but so can any other chi-blocker. Whatever this masked leader did to that firebender, Clar was surely not going to allow him to do the same to Bolin.

"The era of bending is over. A new age of equality is at the dawn of revealing itself," Amon announced.

Then Amon ordered his henchmen to bring the other prisoners that they had captured to him, so that he may remove their bending. Fortunitly for Bolin, he was the last one in line to be removed of his bending. Clar knew that those men that were habing their bending removed were criminals, but he still shouldn't leave them there like that. So Clar moved to the part of the rooftop that was right above the stage.

'Time to show my mass public debut,' Clar said.

Then Clar jumped down to the stage. There was a gasp in the room of who was it that jumped down onto the stage to upstage Amon. Even Amon was very surprised to see the Guardian here to stop him. He knew that with both the Avatar and this vigilante here in Republic City that it would be alot difficult if he took it slow. That was why he decided to move this rally up a night earlear, but that was all foiled now that the myserous hero was here to most likely stop him.

"You need to stop this Amon before it gets any worse," the Guardian said.

"Things are to escalate for the good of the world. I haven't heard of you display any sort of bending, so I must assume you're a 'super' non-bender of some sort," Amon said with amazement. "Join me Guardian. You fight for truth. You fight for Justice. Though my revolution, we can make them all a reality."

"We aren't the ones to decide whose fate should be what. We aren't judges, jurys, nor executioners."

"Considering the situation, I must assume you're against me. Very well," Amon said as he waved for his henchmen to move in and take action.

They were like ants swarming on a prey larger than them. so they used their sheer numbers to swamp Clar. Fortunatly, Clar was able to throw them off of him with his strength, but they still kept coming at him.

Meanwhile in the factory's cooling system, Korra was trying to some vapored water out so that she may throw it out into the crowd with her waterbending. With that cover, they may give Mako a chance to get Bolin out of their. She mamaged to get the vapor out, and then she was finally able to launch it out to the crowd.

Due to the vapor coming out of nowhere, the people started panicking and were running out to the exits. Amon used the vapor to his advantage to get out of their. The Equalists tried taking the remaining prisoners away. That was until Mako threw off the Equalist that was taking Bolin. Then Mako and Bolin made their escape.

The Guardian noticed that there were few Equalists trying to subdue him, and he also was able to see Mako get to Bolin to make their escape. Guardian was just about to make his escape, but a large object hit him in the face. The force was just about enough to knock him away. He looked back to see who was is that hit him and he saw the same large man in a helmet carrying a large ax.

"All of you back away. This one is mine," the ax man said.

"Yes sir, Persuader," a henchman said.

This Persuader then lifted his ax and Clar saw that it was starting to have a voltage of electricity on the blade. Clar managed to dodge the swing, but he noticed that this ax caused some great damage to where it hit.

'That is one heavy ax,' Clar thought.

Clar was prepared for the next swing of attack, so he grabbed the handle of the ax in hopes to disar this elite henchman. To his surprise, before he could get the chance to pull the ax away, the Persuader activated his ax to start electricuting the Guardian.

It wasn't at the same level of electicity as the Electricutioner, but it caused Clar to force him to let go. The Persuader went for another combo of attacks, but Clar was able to them all and get a hit on the Persuader. The Persuader was knocked off the stage.

Clar took the oppurtunity to make a quick run around the factory to see if Korra was still there because he didn't see her run out with Mako and Bolin. Once he was finished looking around the enitre factory, Clar could conclude that she got away safely.

Clar made his way to the roof to see if they were already running off on Naga. He looked in an ally and saw them making their way into the streets with no Equalists on their tails.

Then something came up to him, Amon's ability to take away another person's bending. He had to let the people know of what e wa capable of, so Clar quickly changed into his civilian clothing and made his way to the Daily Elements building.

When Clar got to his cubicle office, Periek called out to him, "Hey Kenta, I thought I gave you the weekend off."

"Sorry Chief, but I have info on that Equalist leader and his plan to remove the world of bending."

"I think you maybe a little too late for that."

"Why?"

"Because Lan already has that being printed."

"Thats right Smallstone. Got to be a little quicker to get your page printed," Lan said as she walked up holding up the front page draft for tomarrow's newpaper. She handed it to Clar for him to see it.

Clar looked at it and was surprised to see the title and photo of the front page. "The Guardian faces off against Equalist Leader," and the photo was a shot of the Guardian looking straight at Amon with Equalists ready and alert.

"You were there in that rally," Clar asked.

"Yep. And pointer Clar, always have a photographer with you," Lan said as she pointed Jimien trying to get more of his photos printed out.

"Other newpapers also may have been in that rally. Only they'll be talking more on the terror of what Amon is capable of. We need to show the reader that there is still hope, and this Guardian may help us with his actions," Periek said.

The Equalist leader has finally shown Republic City on what he is capable of, and he well stop at nothing to bring the world into a Equalist reality. Well the Avatar and the Guardian be able to stop Amon from reaching his conquest, or well they be a victim to his revolution.

Leave a review, and I'll update sooner.
