Tenzin sat at the breakfast table with bags under his eyes. "Not sleeping well?" Pema asked. Kazuto had moved in and the man was in a state of grief.

Korra on the other hand. "He showed me how to get step yesterday, he also said Bolin and Mako could stay at one of the buildings his family owns." Tenzin smiled. The fewer young men the better.

Pema smiled. "Where is he?" Jinora came in with a pie on her head. "Oh dear!" She shook it off.

"Ikki and I were playing Hit the Master, you should see how Ikki looks." The middle child looked like a cake-covered Giant thumb, with Melo taking pieces and eating them.

"I will have my revenge." She went backward and tripped on Melo and landed her butt.

"Kazuto showed you this didn't he?" They all said yes. "Then he's cleaning this mess," Pema said happily, smiling like a clam.

At the police station, Kazuto looked at his 'I'm not insane, there's a pattern' wall. "Are you alright there?" Altan asked, then saw the walls. "Oh yeah, you need an intervention." He pointed at the chair as if telling him to sit.

"I figured out who is funding the equalists! It's Future Industries!" Altan nodded, honestly concerned, at his eyes being bloodshot and hands shaking. "I have tracked down multiple suppliers of Tesla coils! The type used in these." He held one of the gloves. "Guess what, cabbage corp wasn't ordering any but a shell company was buying mass amounts of it, and another was also buying batteries. The same in these."

Altan slowly nodded. "I think you're being paranoid, I mean doesn't your family own parts of Future Industries? Why would the wealthiest man fund the equalists?" Kazuto stepped out of his office.

He knocked on the door. "Sir Kazuto has come for an uninvited visit."

Butler said as he entered. "Kazuto my boy!" He roared with a smile."Sorry to hear about your grandmother."

He nodded, biting his emotions back. "Yes, I'm here to speak about business." Hiroshi led him to his office.

He pulled out the records. "A few companies have been buying large amounts of batteries and Tesla coils." Kazuto smiled, and Hiroshi looked worried. "Then it was bought by a third party after which the trail disappeared." He placed the records in front of him. "Then there's this outstanding amount you have listed as private." He smiled at Hiroshi. "All the companies that bought the batteries and Tesla coils have Future Industries as their parent company." Hiroshi looked like he stood at the edge of a cliff.

Hiroshi glared at him. "You were always too smart for your good." Kazuto was stabbed with a needle by the butler, everything turned dark after that.

He woke up in the basement factory with a cuff that covered his entire hand. "You're awake," Hiroshi spoke standing over him with other equalists. Kazuto growled trying to break out of the cuffs. "Soon you bear witness to the Mecha tanks, not even the greatest mental benders can't bend platinum." Kazuto didn't look impressed.

He sighed. "You were a family friend, why are you doing this?" He spoke still woozy. "Also what did you use?" He groaned.

"Your Shirshu venom. I have to say it's an ingenious creation but recreating has been a challenge." Kazuto blinked.

"No wonder I feel like dying, it's not supposed to be injected. I'm lucky to be alive." Hiroshi took his sword. "Hey leave that be." He pulled it and it didn't have a blade. "It's only as good as it's wielder, and you're pathetic." He grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.

"You will tell me how you were able to create it!" Kazuto blinked a few times.

He then turned to Hiroshi. "Go back to the rotten gutter you came from." Hirosh beat on him for a minute before stepping away. "Good to know." He spat a tooth out. "You still have that dragon flats punch." He threw the hilt and scabbard at him.

Hiroshi breathed heavily. "How can you be on their side!? They're cruel, they're what is rotten in this world and—"

He interrupted. "And I'm one of them." Hiroshi looked surprised. "I don't show Off my bending, because I'm not a child or a self-obsessed crook. I am a master bender, focused and tempered." Hiroshi gave him a look of disgust. "I was raised in the dragon flats like you, the only difference was I knew to keep my temper, but you." He looked at the Mecha tanks. "What happened to you?"

Hiroshi didn't answer and instead pressed a button causing the cage to electrocute him. "Your kind did what you always do." He chuckled. "What?"

"I took down the murderer of your wife. I don't get what is with you equalists. Benders are oppressive, benders are the elite. LOOK AROUND YOU! How many benders would trade their bending for the wealth around you? What are you fighting for?! Revenge?! My family's history shows fighting for revenge never gets you anywhere!" Hiroshi stayed silent, he gulped and pressed the remote.

Hiroshi said a single word "Justice." Kazuto was electrocuted till he lost consciousness.

Kazuto woke up. "Kazuto!" He sat up groaning. "Did Hiroshi do this to you?" Tenzin asked and Kazuto was in a worse mood than Ozai after the comet answered.

"No! Little spirits knocked me out and tied me up for fun! Of course, it was Hiroshi!" The doors went up sealing them all inside. Lin tried to bend the new walls but it failed.

"No need, those walls are pure platinum, and are my Mecha tanks." The Mecha tanks went online and closed in on the police. "Not even your renowned mother could bend a metal so pure."

"This was a setup!" Lin said before jumping at the mech tank trying to stab the pilot.

Korra and Tenzin fought well; they were overrun and tied up in cable.

Kazuto had melted his arm cuff into the floor. "What the?!" One exclaimed. "Sir this one is stuck to the floor.

He saw Mako and Bolin and smirked. "That's right, platinum sucks! Equalists are idiots!" They all looked at the firebender trying to get his cuffs open.

"Going somewhere boys?" Hiroshi asked the lieutenant.

"You had one job!" He yelled and then the equalists focused on the intruders. He pulled at his cuff while heating a line of the metal breaking and allowing an opening to free himself.

The Mechtank turned toward Mako and prepared to launch the electric bolas, in an instant the arm was cut off and so was the midsection.

Kazuto jumped to Mako holding a blade made of white fire. "Wow," Mako said, impressed.

Kazuto heaved, placing his hands on his knees. "Are you alright?" Asami asked.

He nodded. "Yeah, been in a cage for who knows how long, got electrocuted multiple times, your dad's the worst." He sat down.

Mako went to him. "How did you melt those?" He asked, looking at the one that was in half.

"White fire burns hot enough to melt platinum but is hard to do. "The focused fire went out leaving nothing but a hilt. "Let's get out of here." One of the tanks turned to them and they jumped into the hole with it being sealed by Bolin.

Breaking news!

Future industries CEO an equalist!

Kazuto shrugged, had a bucked next to him, and was detoxing from the Shirshu venom, while Tenzin stood next to him. "How are you holding up?" He threw up in the bucket.

"I haven't felt this bad since I graduated from the military academy. Man, we used to throw the biggest parties." Lin nodded as Kazuto lay on her Couch.

"We lost so many good officers and had their bending taken away." Tenzin held her shoulder.

"Don't Beat yourself up."

"I'm stepping down, looks like you have a partner." She told Kazuto who gave a thumbs up.

"But Kazuto is still on the police force," Tenzin said, surprised.

"He acts like he isn't and I would also make sure he doesn't get caught again." Kazuto groaned.

"Yea… my bad." He said placing a salve on his electric burns.

Both cringed at seeing. "Why is it black?" Lin asked

"Because it burned through My clothes. If it was a glove I would have redirected it back into a punch but screw my luck." He had an ice pack on his head.

"What now?" Lin asked

"I would say make a trap and collect on it once they bite, but we better find the officers who got caught and I know some who can help, tomorrow I feel like rotten tomato pumpkins right now." He threw up again.
