I keep forgeting to do this.
Rorschach- Too much on your plate. IB classes. Law Enforcement Training. You can't always expect to remember to do something so small like a disclaimer.
Superiornite- Yeah, and then I get sued for a misunderstanding.
Rorschach- Hurrm.
Superiornite- The Legend of Korra and any DC Comics related characters do not belong to me. Legend of Korra belongs to Nickolodion and Superman and other heroes belong to DC Comics. Oh, and Rorschach here belongs to Alan Moore who published him through DC Comics.
Deadpool- Shut up and start the story! *Grabs popcorn and soda*
It was already the morning after Amon's attack on the Arena, the masked adventurers chasing Amon and his Equalists away with thier tails between their legs. Then there was the little run in with a former monster that fought Avatar Aang and his allies, which may have caused the current Avatar to finally trigger her airbending.
Right now, Korra was practicing her newly attained airbending in Air Temple Island. The young Avatar already met with the press, and it was scene she sort of wished didn't happen.
*Flashback*
There were reporters and photographers in front of Korra, as she appreared in front of the Arena with some rips and tears around her outfit, due to her current battle with Sylung Grundy.
"Avatar Korra, what happened?"
"Where is Amon and the masked vigilantes?"
Korra tried to settle down the mob of reporters by gesturing her hands to keep it down.
"Amon got away. We persued him, but we discovered that he has a new weapon. Sylung Grundy is back."
Just by saying his name, caused the press to start rambling out different things, and a bit a panic towards them. Some of the remembered what Sylung Grundy was once capable of, and now he was back. Alongside the crowd of reporters was Lan and Jimien, and Lan seemed just as worried about the fact of Sylung Grundy being back. However, she didn't want to bring the readers a lot of bad news, there could possibly be hope.
So Lan shouted out for Korra to hear her over the other reporters, "What about the Guardian and the other masked adventurers?"
"They helped me in my fight against Grundy, but even with their help, weren't prepared for him. We had to pull back," Korra answered.
"Did they give you any idea on where they could be hiding out?"
Korra was prepared to answer this question, "As we got to a safe area from the Equalists and Intergang, they informed me that they'll hope to gain my aid next time. Suddenly the Guardian fired that flame vision of his towards the ground and caused smoke, and they were gone."
"You didn't try to purse them?"
"Apperantly he is faster than a speeding blackpowder harpoon," Korra answered nonshaulantly.
"Or is it just that something you have with the Guardian?"
"Huh?' Korra responded to the question.
"Well, you are a supporter of the Guardian, even when he wasn't called the Guardian at first. You did stop Councilman Tarrlock and his task force from destroying the Guardian. The Guardian was the one who took you into medical care after your ambush from Amon. Is there really something between you two?"
"Errr... I think there are more important issues to discuss than my posession with the Guardian."
Just like that, the reporters were back to asking about Sylung Grundy's return.
*Flashback end*
Korra tried to get herself back to the present, as she went back to her airbending training.
*Meanwhile, at the Republic City Polie Headquarters*
Inside the interagation room, the Chief of Police, the airbending Councilman, and Republic City's top cop were questioning Hiroshi Sato. However, as each question was being asked, Jun seemed to be concentrating more towards Hiroshi.
"So from where you were setting in the stands, you were only able to see the suspects revealing the electric gloves around the same time the undercover Intergangsters revealing themselves," Lin asked Hiroshi.
"Yes. It happened so fast, to be honest. They came out of no where. I was actually worried they would have made efforts to attack any audiance mebers as hostages. I could not bear the sight if my Asami were taken hostage," Hiroshi answered with a comment.
At that moment Jun started to sense something from Hiroshi, so he decided to ask some questions as well.
"You did take a good look at the gloves, so could make out who would most likely be capable of manufacturing them," Jun asked.
"I'm sorry, there are number of companys that have the capabilites to manufacture such weapons. All the way from Cabbage Corp to Wang Enterprise, and I doubt would get involved with such radicals and terrorests."
Right there, Jun found an answer, but it wasn't from what Hiroshi said. It was from somewhere else from Hirsohi. However, Jun decided to leave it like that, and gestured to Lin that he had no more questions.
Lin acknowledged and said, "that is all the questions we have ."
"My pleasure. Anything to help you put a stop to those radicals," Hiroshi responded as he was led out of the interagation room.
After Hiroshi was gone, Jun needed to talk to Lin about what came up when he was asking Hiroshi. He walked to her and said, "Chief, I have a hunch."
If it were any other detective, Lin would be very skyptical. However, Jun has proven to have extremely accurate hunches in the past, and, she sort of has a little bit of, 'favoratism,' towards the detective.
"What is it?"
"What other manufacturing cooperation in Republic City could have the capability of manufacturing weapons that fast," Jun asked both Lin and Tenzin, who was also still in the room. Before either one of them could answer, Jun answered it for them.
"Sato Industrys."
"He does have the means and motive to such an act. Considering his family was attacked by a bending triad, which led to the death of his wife," Tenzin commented.
"Then it is settled. I'll get a warrent to search all of Sato's factories," Lin said.
"We may want to check his home property as well. It wouldn't be smart for someone like Sato to leave his manufacturing of weapons in just the factories," Jun suggested.
"Right," Lin acknowldged.
"Its best I get going. The Council needs to discuss on what next motvies we need to come with to contain this violence," Tenzin said as he left.
"Just get that warrent signed fast, we don't have all day," Lin called out to Tenzin.
"What else do you need me to do Chief," Jun asked Lin.
"Just get back on track with your patrol routine. I'll call you in when the warrent is ready, and please, call me Lin," Lin answered with a bit of a positive tone.
Jun was able to catch Lin's intentions of offering him to call her by her name, and he could only try to conceal his action of scratching the back of his head with bashfulness.
Korra had just finished her training, and was just to be on her way to meet with Mako, Bolin and Asami, but as she got to the pier of the Island, she saw the least likely person to be in Air Temple Island.
"Be Fong," Korra said with a but of surprise.
"Listen Avatar, you may not like me and I sure as hell do not have you on my good side, but one thing is for certain is that you are one of the few to end this madness," Lin said.
Korra could only look in surprise from hearing the Chief of Police telling her that. Why all of the sudden care? Before Korra could even say anything, she noticed that Lin was carrying a duffle bag.
"You have heard about the Justice Society, and how they were consisted of your past lives friends and allys," Lin asked.
"Er... yeah."
"And you know who my mother was?"
"Wonder Woman."
Lin nodded, as she grabbed the duffle bag foward to Korra, and opened it for Korra to see. The young Avatar looked inside to see the same armor she saw Toph wearing in that vision of hers.
"This armor was first worn by Avatar Kyoshi, and then my mother was the first one, out of hundreds of years, to rediscover it and claim it. Now, you must take up the armor."
Korra couldn't believe what Lin was suggesting. She was offering her armor and arsenal that made the Worlds Greatest Earthbender into the Ultimate Amazon Warrior.
"Wha... wait. Just wait a second, why me. Your mother was the one who gave it to you. Can't you wear the armor," Korra asked.
"I'm not as young as I used to be. This armor needs to be worn by someone who will keep fighting for the longest time of their life. I has already passed that time for me to bear this arsenal. This world changing. Not only has technology been advancing greatly, but there has been the revealing of new threats that have started even during the time of Avatar Aang. The Avatar must be able to keep balance even if means to exced the normal qualifications of an Avatar. Just like Avatar Aang, you must stand for something more than just a bridge to the Mortal World and the Spirit World," Lin said with a slow tone, that sort of reminded Korra of when Katara told her that she must take responsibilty to keep balance of the world.
Korra could only look at the armor with a longer glance. It was red in the abdoman area where the buckle to the hip had a golden belt area. At the top of the breast area, there was a line of gold that resemled an eagle like bird. The leg area was dark blue with paddings that hung from the waist area, similar to the armor for the anciant samuri. The boots were red like the body armor with a stripped line of white. Then alongside the armor was a short curved sword, a golden shield, a golden lasso, and two silver bracelets.
"Do you accept this offer of gaining the Wonder Woman armor," Lin asked at last.
For moment, Korra had to comprehend what responsibilty she will have if she took the armor. From history has said, this armors golden belt allowed an earthbender to be strong enough to left a small mountain without the need to use the earthbending. The bracelets were capable of deflecting any attack from an arrow to a lightning shot. The sword was able to cut the strongest metal as if it were butter, and the shield could take on a great force like the foes that Toph had faced when she was in the Justice Society. Lin was right about the world changing even more faster, so it is high time that the Avatar must also adapt to this changing world, as a champion for peace and justice.
"I accept," Korra answered.
*Meanwhile*
Clar was setting by Lan and Jemien the police unit that was driven by Jun. Jun called them in so that they could get a ride on a bust of illigal manufacturing of weapons for the Equalists. Now, the break in specialist police team was already on their way to their targeted location with Jun following the convoy.
"I suppose you three know the rules with police business?" Jun asked the two reporters and photographer.
"Sure. Every cop has kept reminding me when I hech a ride with them," Lan answered.
"Will I'm still going to remind you all. You stay behind the set perimeter. Don't get into any police business. If something goes wrong, just stay get back into safety. Got it," Jun said.
"Got it detective," Lan answered with boredem.
*Sato Mansion*
Hiroshi Sato was speaking through the phone, until someone busted into the door of his office. He looked to see his prodical son, but instead of that tall man that was with him the other night, this new bodyguard looked a lot different. He had an eye patch over his right eye.
"What are you doing," Hiroshi said with a hint of hositlity.
"I was hoping to see my little sister, whom I haven't seen in quite a long time, but unfortunatly for me she is out with her firebending boyfriend. How is it that you would let her go out with a bending athlete, while you try so hard to keep her away from her own brother," Lee asked away, as he looked at the photos on the walls of Hiroshi's office.
"Do not bring her into this!"
"Why would I want to bring my baby sister into a revolution she has no part in. Espicially if I'm a bender myself," Lee answered with cool. "Also, I'm here to warn you to get your fat ass moving because the police are on their way with a search warrent around this little place you call home."
"What?!"
"You should have picked a better spot to work on your little toys, dad. So are you coming or not," Lee asked without any trace of nervousness in his voice, considering the police were on their way. Hiroshi could only grunt in frustration, before he got himself up from his office desk and followed Lee to their escape route.
*In Hiroshi's Secret Workshop/Equalist Hideout*
The Equalists were just about to be on their way to get a another shipment of the new mecha tanks to the other Equalist hideouts. Amon's second in command, Lieutenant, was giving orders to any Equalist henchmen that were available.
"You, I want you to get a crate of some the meteor rocks to the cargo truck. There should be one last crate over behind those storage units," Lieutenant pointed out.
That Equalist henchman walked over passed the storage units to get the meteor rocks. As he was going to grab the crate, something, from the inside of the storage unit, grabbed him into the dark shadows.
From the sudden pull, there were items that fell from the stacked boxes and casued a crashing sound. The crash got the attention of the other Equalists, so a handful of them walked over to see what had happened.
"Hey. Stikai? You alright?" One of the Equalists called out. "Stikai?"
Suddenly, the lamps that were above them shattered in row and it went slightly darker.
One of the Equalists looked around, and, for some odd reason, he looked to the ground, and found something. He kneeled down to grab it, and from the looks of it, the object resembled something. However, before he could make out what it was, he looked behind to see his fellow Equalist looking up in confusion, but also, fear. He looked up to see what is it his partner was looking at.
"What the-* AAAAHHHH!"
*Outside, in the backyard of Hiroshi's mansion*
Jun had led the police though the mansion to find it unoccupied, so they still kept searching the enitre primesis. Suddenly, he heard gun fire coming from the small workshop that was in the backyard.
"Shots fired. Move in," Jun yelled out for the other officers to hear. They moved in quick to the gun fire. Inside the workshop, they found a secret passage way that led underground, where the gun fire was coming from. They moved as quick as they, but when they were half way there, the gun fire stopped.
When they finally made it to the end of the tunnel, they found a large warehouse like area. There were two trucks that were blown up, some sort of large metal suits that were also on fire, and downed Equalist henchmen.
"Get these Equalist rallyed up," Jun ordered the officers.
As if on cue, the triple dream team of the Daily Elements came in to see the crime scene.
"By the spirits, what happened here," Jemien asked out loud as he started shooting his camera.
"Looks like the police were beaten to the bust," Lan added. While Clar only analyzed and observed the entire warehouse. This couldn't have been just one man, or could it. Clar also noticed the Equalist's second in command tied up to a large spotlight that was on. He also had some ripped cloth hanging from his arms as well.
"That man is tied up there," Clar said out loud.
Jun noticed and went over there with a couple of officers. As they were just about to bring him down, one of the officers looked to see where the spotlight was pointing at.
"What the hell is that," he asked out loud.
Jun, Clar, Lan, and Jemien turned to see the light hitting the ceilling, and from the shadow of the Lieutanent, it showed a shadow of some sort of winged creature.
Lan was able to recoginze the ensignia, the same with Jun, and she whispered to Jimien, "photos. Now. He is here. The Dark Knght is here in Republic City."
*A/N: Play the Dark Knight Theme by Hans Zimmer*
Seems with the help of Jun Jo-ons, the police were able to bust Hiroshi's workshop. Plus, there seems to be something going on with Lin and Jun. Now, Korra has accepted to bear the armor and arsenal of Wonder Woman. Who is this other man that was standing by Lee? Last but not least, there is another vigilante in Republic City, and he is Vengeance. He is the Night.
Ashbringer36- Don't worry about it, amigo. We all have different strengths in other areas of knowlege. And just wait and see, just wait and see for our Avatar to become Wonder Woman.
AZTEC 13- Thanks for the comments. I'm sure you will be very happy now that a certain group is complete. All I can say for Lin and Jun is to keep reading. The same with Asami. Sorry, no spoilers.
Hockyfist- Wait and see, mi amigo, wait and see. I'm happy you are thinking that route.
AVP5- Thanks. About Korra being able to airbend early, let me explain; all Korra needed to airbend in the series was something to push her in a desperate matter. So all she needed was a little... push. . BuaHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA! *cough* sorry.
mdizzle- Yeah, I read it. But the Green Lantern that Sokka is in my story is the Golden Age/Justice Society Green Lantern. I hope you don't get upset with me for trying to steal your idea.
Until next time, I hope to update soon.
