Finals Gone Wrong

A few days had passed since the whole Amon incident at Aang Memorial Island, Kang was in his bed just taking a nap while listening to the music on his radio.

"You are listening to music hour," the announcer said, "brought to you by Cabbage Corp. Republic City's trusted name in technology for over 50 years."

'Heh,' Kang thought, 'over 50 years ago, Grandpa Aang destroyed those Cabbage Carts in Omashu.'

As Kang was thinking, he soon heard the radio buzz and Amon spoke.

"Good Morning, citizens of Republic City," Amon said.

Kang got out of bed as he listened to what Amon was saying, "This is Amon. I hope you all enjoyed last night's Pro-Bending match, because it will be the last. It's time for this city to stop worshiping bending athletes as if they were heroes. I am calling on the council to shut down the Bending Arena and cancel the finals, or else there will be severe consequences."

Kang heard all of that and got up to the building, he knew how much this meant for Korra and was not going to let his father stop a match from some terrorist. Kang had already taken out most of his men, a threat like this shouldn't be taken seriously.

'I'm not going to let this happen!' Kang thought as he jumped out of the window. Soon, Kujo flew with Kang on his way to Republic City.

———

Kang got off of his Bison and saw Korra and her friends coming towards him.

"I assume you three and I have the same interest?" Kang asked.

"You bet we do," Korra said. Aang's Successor as well as his eldest grandson nodded to each other as they entered the city hall building.

Tenzin saw the two with Mako and Bolin coming behind them and got up.

"This is a private meeting!" Tenzin said to the late teens.

"As the son of the Chief of Police and Councilman Tenzin I have a right to be heard and Korra as well. She is the Avatar and a bending Athlete," Kang said.

"You can't cancel the finals," Korra said.

"I know winning the championship means a lot to you," Tenzin said, "but as far as I'm concerned, we need to shut the arena down."

Kang found it surprising that the rest of the council were not defying Tenzin's decision.

"Now that's just weird," Kang said, "the rest of you would say otherwise, especially you Tarrlok. There's no way you're backing down from Amon, are you?"

"Actually, your Father and I agree for once," Tarrlok said to Kang, making the Non-Bender snort out of irony.

"The council is unanimous," Tenzin said, "we're closing the arena."

"No!" Mako screamed out of frustration.

"You can't!" Bolin said, agreeing with his older brother.

"I don't understand," Korra said, "I thought you of all people would take a stand against Amon."

"I second that," Kang said, he thought it was fishy seeing Tarrlok doubling down on closing the arena down.

Tarrlok took a deep breath as he had to explain himself to Korra and the teens one last time. "While I am still committed to bringing that lunatic to justice," Tarrlok said, "I will not put innocent lives at stake just so you and your huge group of friends can play a game."

Mako was about to talk, but Kang stopped him and spoke up.

"With all due respect, although it may be a game to you," Kang said, "Pro-bending was what made Republic City very popular. The arena is a place where both benders and non-benders can unite for a common interest; watching athletes compete. So if you close the arena Amon wins. By closing the arena it's not going to alleviate the tension between benders and non-benders but worsen the divide that made Republic City what it is. It is also the city my grandfather and Fire Lord Zuko found to close the divide between benders and non benders."

When Kang finished his speech to not shut the arena down, Tarrlok shook his head as if he was taunting the son of Tenzin and the Police Chief. "And I thought you had your Father's wisdom," Tarrlok said, "but instead I have been hearing a naive boy who just wants to ignore the reality of the situation."

Kang started to sneer as he was being compared to his Father, but restrained himself as he knew he would cause a scene.

Tarrlok had a smug look on his face as he said, "This meeting is adjourned."

Kang heard a wire shooting out and moved his head as it broke the wooden gavel. Kang looked back and saw his Mother who was coiling her wire standing behind them.

"I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with the Avatar and Kang," Lin said.

"You do?" Tarrlok asked.

"Yeah, you do?" Korra asked.

"I expected this cut-and-run response from Tenzin, but the rest of you? Come on, show a little backbone. It's time that the benders of this city displayed some strength and unity against the Equalists." Lin said.

"We must prevent the conflict between benders and non-benders from escalating into an all-out war! The council is not changing its position, Lin." Tenzin said.

"Now, just a moment, Tenzin. Let's hear what our esteemed Chief of Police has in mind." Tarrlok said, making Tenzin grunt in annoyance.

"If you keep the arena open, my Metalbenders and I will provide extra security during the championship match. There's no better force to deal with the chi blockers. Our armor is impervious to their attacks." Lin said.

"Are you saying you will PERSONALLY take responsibility for the safety of the spectators in the arena?" Tarrlok asked.

"I guarantee it." Lin answered.

"It is hard to argue with Chief Beifong's track record. If she is confident her elite officers can protect the arena, then she has my support. I am changing my vote." Tarrlok said, raising his hand. "Who else is with me?" Tarrlok asked as three other council members raised their hands while Tenzin turned away in disappointment. "The arena stays open. Good luck in the finals." Tarrlok said and the Fire Ferrets cheered.

"Alright!" Bolin cheered.

"Yeah!" Mako cheered, punching his fist in the air.

"Thank you!" Korra said.

"And good luck to you, Chief Beifong." Tarrlok said.

As Tenzin walked towards Lin, he noticed his son's tense expression.

"Look I know you and your Mother are not on the best of terms," Tenzin said, "but you two need to reconcile, the resentment you're holding for her isn't helping you."

Kang said nothing as he just kept looking forward, making Tenzin sigh and put a hand to pat his son's shoulder before going to Lin.

"A word please?" Tenzin asked.

Tenzin and Lin are outside of the courtroom.

"Tarrlok's playing you and I don't want to see you get hurt." Tenzin said.

"I know what I am doing and the risks that come with it." Lin said.

"In that case, I'm going to be by your side during the match." Tenzin said.

"You don't need to babysit me." Lin said annoyed.

"It's for Korra and Kang. I want to make them stay safe while Korra is playing and our son is watching," Tenzin said. After hearing this, Lin threw her arms in the air annoyed.

"Do what you want! It's not like I've ever been able to stop you before." Lin said.

Korra walks over to Lin.

"Um, excuse me, Chief Beifong. I wanted to thank you for your help." Korra said but Lin ignores the Avatar and walks off. "It... really... means a lot..." Korra said but Lin is gone and she groans. "What's her deal? Even when she's on my side, she's against me!" Korra said.

"I've known Lin since we were children, she's always been... challenging." Tenzin said, "She was like this with our son as well when he was a small boy."

"What did your father do to make her hate the Avatar so much?" Korra asked.

"My father and Lin got along famously. I'm afraid her issues... are with me." Tenzin said.

"Wait a second... It all makes sense now! You left Beifong for Pema!" Korra said, putting her hands together and smiling devilishly.

"What?! How...? Where did you get that idea?" Tenzin asked, looking around nervously.

"Ha! Your wife!" Korra said.

"Criminy! I'll have to have a word with her!" Tenzin said.

"So... Pema stole you from Beifong. I'm surprised our 'esteemed Chief of Police' didn't throw her in jail." Korra said.

"Oh, she tried. Anyway, Pema didn't STEAL me, Lin and I had been growing apart for some time as Kang grew older. We both had different goals in life and different ways of raising our..." Tenzin stops talking. "Why am I even telling you this? It all happened a long time ago and we've moved past it." Tenzin said.

"Well apparently, Beifong hasn't." Korra said, "Also what's the bad blood between her and Kang?"

"I don't know if Kang would be comfortable enough to answer the question," Tenzin said, "Something happened when he was a small boy and we were not there for him when he needed us the most, I was too busy with my own job when instead I should have been there for my own son. And I don't want to put words into Lin's mouth, but she was just as guilty."

Tenzin started to walk away as Korra started to look at Kang who started to walk out the other way.

———

Korra was outside looking for Kang who was sitting at the minipark across the City Hall building. She saw him sitting on a bench and went towards him.

"Hey," Korra said.

Kang looked at Korra who was approaching him. He scooted over and patted the seat next to her to sit down which she accepted. As the two sat down, they looked out towards the city.

"You know when I was a kid," Kang said, "I would always sit here, it helps take my mind off of things."

Korra looked at Kang, "What kind of things?"

"Just problems I had back then," Kang said. Korra didn't like the answer Kang was giving him so she decided to go a bit forward with her question.

"What happened between you and your parents?" Korra asked, "I know you and your Dad made up, but what about you and your Mom?"

Kang looked at her, "Well if you really wanted to know, I did something really terrible as a kid and I wanted my parents to comfort me as any kid would want from their parents, but they were too busy. The reason why I forgave Dad was because of how well Jinora, Ikki, and Meelo are turning out right now. I was his big wake up call to not abandon your children at all times. But Mother..."

Kang sighed as he started to get up from the bench, "She never learns and she always had this thing of holding on to the past. I have developed that habit no thanks to her, but I can't get out of it. It's easier said than done to change your way of thinking and the way you act."

———

It's nighttime and the pro-bending arena is surrounded by ships of Metalbenders and inside the officers are scouring looking for undefined objects.

"All clear, Chief!" An officer said.

Lin nodded, she was standing at the entrance and Tenzin approached the chief. "How is the security sweep going?" Tenzin asked.

"Fine." Lin said bluntly.

"The other officers have checked underneath the stands?" Tenzin asked.

"Yes." Lin answered bluntly again.

"And you have enough officers to cover all points of entry?" Tenzin asked.

"I have the skies, the bay, and every nook and cranny of this place covered. Now, leave me alone and let me do my job." Lin said.

"Lin, with so much on the line, it would be nice if we could help each other out, at least for one night." Tenzin said.

"Like old times?" Lin asked with a soft expression.

"Like old times." Tenzin said.

"Okay, I'll try to be less abrasive than usual." Lin said.

"I would appreciate that." Tenzin said.

———

"Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the final match of the pro bending tournament!" The announcer shouted in the mike as the crowd was roaring with excitement at seeing the final match.

"Give a hand for the team who's managed to make it into the finals, the Future Industries, Fire Ferrets!" The crowd gave a loud cheer as Korra, Mako and Bolin were brought to the ring by the extending bridge as they waved to the crowd.

Mako saw Asami and she blew him a kiss and wink, wishing him luck which he happily returned, Korra saw this and just groaned.

After reaching the arena Bolin signals Pabu.

"You're on, Pabu." Bolin said and Pabu jumps down and does his trick by moving around on his front paws before doing backflips while Bolin uses an earth disc to remove the center for Pabu who does a backflip through and back and ends the performance with one paw standing. "Yes! Nailed it! He's so talented." Bolin said.

"And their opponents, the three timed defending champions, the White Falls Wolf-bats!" The ring announcer introduced as bat masked Wolf-bats with purple capes howl and spread their cape wings while fireworks go off all around the arena and the Wolf-bat fangirls cheer, cry, and howl while the Fire Ferret cosplayers boo.

"That's the best they got? Pathetic." Kang said.

"Pfft, they got nothing on us, buddy. Anybody can howl." Bolin said as he tried to howl but failed. "Hm, whatever." Bolin said.

Tahno takes off his bat mask and unties his cape.

"I'm gonna knock Tahno's STUPID hair off his STUPID head!" Korra said, pounding her fist.

"The champs and challengers face off at the center-line and here we go!" Shiro announced as the bell rings.

The Wolf-bats instantly move toward the Fire Ferrets and Tahno tries to deliver a water uppercut at Korra who moves back to barely dodge it but gets hit by Tahno's water blast.

"Tahno tries to clean the Avatar's clock with some dirty water boxing." Shiro said and Mako delivers a Firebending attack but misses and the Earthbending Wolf-bat throws two earth discs and kicks them at Mako followed by two more and Mako is forced back into zone two. "Ming shakes off Mako's attack and returns the favor." Shiro said and the Firebender Wolf-bat tries to flip at Bolin who kicks some earth discs and one of the discs bounces off the side ropes and hits the Firebending Wolf-bat knocking him against the fence. "Shaozu gets fancy, but Bolin ricochets a disc off the ropes and says 'No thank you, sir'!" Shiro said.

"Nice shot!" Mako said.

Tahno looks at the Fire Ferrets in slight irritation for this and Shaozu runs out of the way of Mako's fireball just in time.

"The Waterbenders slug it out, looking evenly matched." Shiro said Tahno Waterbends a prolonged stream of water at Bolin forcing him to zone three. "Tahno gets a little too worked up and unleashes a deluge on Bolin that would certainly elicit a foul." Shiro said and the center of the ring lights up allowing the Wolf-bats to advance. "Or apparently not." Shiro said.

"Bullcrap!" Kang yelled.

"What's the big idea, ref? That was a housing foul!" Mako yelled and the referee signaled it was not making Mako angry.

"And the Wolf-bats advance despite Tahno exceeding the Waterbending time limit." Shiro says and the match continues and Korra starts Waterbending but gets hit but Tahno's water attack but Bolin launches an earth disc at Tahno who dodges and Korra rolls to the side while Mako dodges an earth disc by Ming and starts Firebending back. "A questionable call by the officials." Shiro said and Ming lifted up a disc under Mako's foot tripping him forward and launched another disc at the Firebender, sending him back to zone three. "Ming trips up Mako with another dirty trick!" Shiro said.

"This is disgusting!" Kang yelled.

"Oh, come on, refs! There was some funny business in that last play!" Tenzin yelled.

"Wouldn't have guessed YOU knew the rules of pro-bending." Lin said amused.

"Someone helped change my perspective. Besides, I've been brushing up. That Wolf-bat blatantly bent a disc outside of his zone." Tenzin said.

Ming launches another earth disc as Tahno runs forward to start another attack.

"The Fire Ferret brothers are backed to zone three and the Wolf-bats smell blood." Shiro said and Tahno freezes water as Bolin jumps back making him slip and gets hit by a fire blast and falls out of the arena making the crowd boo. "Looks like Tahno snuck an illegal icing move, but once again, there's no call." Shiro said.

"They've been bought out..." Kang muttered to himself.

Tahno and Shaozu both attack Korra as Mako rolls out of the way of an earth disc and delivers a fire blast.

"I don't know what match the refs are watching, but it's obviously not this one." Shiro said. Tahno and Ming both attack Korra and get sent back into zone three and the Wolf-bats advance but Mako sends out a Firebending blast but he misses. "Oh...a splash-and-clash sends the Avatar to zone three as well." Shiro said and Mako moves in front of Korra and tries to Firebend to protect the Avatar from a triple element attack but they both get pushed out of the arena and the bell rings as the Wolf-bats gather together. "It's a knockout! The Wolf-bats won the championship for the fourth year in a..." Shiro was cut off when he saw something. "Hold on a second, folks!" Shiro said as he saw Korra clinging to the edge of the stadium holding Mako by his collar.

"Scratch that! The Ferrets are still alive, but just barely." Shiro said as Korra swings to throw Mako up onto the arena as she falls and Mako throws a fire blast at Tahno sending him flying and knocking him down as Ming and Shaozu look at him in shock and Tahno stands back up angry as the bell rings and Mako winks in a smug manner.

"What an unbelievable move! These Ferrets aren't just bending elements, they're bending my mind!" Shiro said and Tahno glared hatefully and growled. "The underdogs survive to see round two!" Shiro said.

The Ferrets huddled together.

"What's wrong with these refs?" Korra asked.

"They've been paid off; it's the only explanation. Someone wants us to lose." Mako said.

"If the Wolf-bats are gonna play dirty, then so should we." Korra said.

"No we can't! The refs have it out for us. If we're gonna win this thing, it has to be fair and square." Mako said.

"That's no fun, but...alright." Korra said disappointed.

"Round two!" The ring announcer said as the bell rings.

Mako firebends but gets blocked by Shaozu and Korra Waterbends at Ming who blocks it with Firebending and Bolin sends an earth disc at Tahno who blocks it with Waterbending and then Waterbends at Korra twice who dodges and blocks the attacks.

"The opening salvo is a brutal call as both sides give it their all." Shiro said and Korra starts to Waterbend but her right gets iced and Tahno kicks her back with waterbending. "But once again, Tahno sneaks in a little ice to get the upper hand." Shiro said.

"This crap again." Kang said.

Bolin sends an earth disc at Shaozu, sending him back but Ming attempts to block a Firebending blast with a disc but is sent backward and Mako dodges three fire blasts aiming for his head.

"Wowzers! Those look like illegal headshots to me!" Shiro said and Mako dodged another fireblast to the head and the bell rings and the players remain on the ring floor.

"Round two will be decided with a tiebreaker." The ring announcer said as the referee came in between and flips a coin and then catches it.

"The Fire Ferrets win the coin toss! Which element do you choose?" The referee asked.

"I'm taking this one. Let's go! You and me, pretty boy!" Korra said to Tahno who smirks.

"Thought you'd never ask." Tahno said.

The other team members move away from the center as it elevates itself with Korra and Tahno in the middle and they move around for the first strike.

"Come on, little girl. Give me your best shot." Tahno said.

Korra Waterbends at Tahno who dodges it but then gets underneath by a water stream and the scene rewinds to show the replay of the same thing happening again showing that Korra only used the first water strike as a distraction and then uses her foot to deliver the upper water strike and Tahno falls out of the ring and the bell rings.

"Hmph, chump." Korra said smugly while the Wolf-bat fangirls are shocked along with the Fire Ferret cosplayers and Tahno's helmet lands on one of them.

"Nice shot, Korra! That'll show that weasel!" Kang said.

"Round two goes to the Fire Ferrets!" The ring announcer said as the Ferrets' color lights up and Korra jumps down from the center.

"Nice one!" Mako said high fiving Korra.

"That's the stuff! You are my HERO-AH!" Bolin cheered.

"We might actually win this thing." Mako said.

Tahno is being helped to his feet and shakes his team off in rage and fixes his hair.

"Let's send them to a watery grave!" Tahno said.

"I can't believe your sweet-tempered father was reincarnated into that girl. She's tough as nails." Lin said, impressed.

"Reminds me of someone else I knew. You two might get along if you would only give her a chanceTenzin said.

"Hmph." Lin said, rolling her eyes.

"One round apiece; who wants it more?" Shiro asked as the bell rings.

"Come on, you three. You can do this." Kang said.

Tahno Waterbends while Ming blocks a water attack with an earth disc and then launches another earth disc and Shaozu and Tahno both launch their own attacks but Bolin dodges a water blast and launches his earth disc but gets hit by a water blast while sending another earth disc.

"The Wolf-bats fly out of the gates, swinging with bad intentions." Shiro said and Ming launches a disc attack while Shaozu jumps over and sends out a fire blast. "The challengers are showing a lot of heart, but the champs are really starting to find their rhythm now." Shiro said Tahno runs toward while jumping off a pole to dodge an oncoming disc and launches his own water blast. "Can the Ferrets hang in there with the best, especially when the best are FRANKLY getting a little help from the refs?" Shiro asks as Ming launches a disc at Korra who gets hit but she narrowly dodges the other disc and launches her water blast at Tahno who blocks it. "It's all down to this final round!" Shiro said.

"Come on. Come on." Kang said.

Mako sends out multiple fire blasts.

"Mako is leaving it all in the ring, but it looks like Tahno and Ming are up to more shenanigans!" Shiro said as Ming brings up an earth disc and throws it before launching another disc behind his back and breaks the disc into Tahno's water and Tahno Waterbends the broken disc into three blasts and knocks Bolin and Mako off the arena.

Korra is hit by the water blast but manages to stay grounded until the rocks reach her and knocks her off the arena.

"Oh, this has gone too far! That water has rocks in it!" Shiro said.

"Knockout!" The referee said making the crowd have an uproar.

"Oh, come ON! Those were illegal headshots! Open your eyes, ref!" Tenzin yelled.

"Well, folks, it's a controversial call, but the Wolf-bats notch a nasty knockout to win the match! For the fourth year in a row, they'll be crowned tournament champions." Shiro said as the Wolf-bats were waving at the spectators.

"I barely broke a sweat!" Tahno said, taking off his helmet.

"Anybody else wanna scrap with the champs?" Tahno asked.

Among the crowd a man puts on an Equalist mask while a female does the same thing and another man puts on the same mask and a spectator reaches for a box of popcorn and in it is an electrical glove and more people do the same and put on the glove and as Tenzin is expressing his outrage over the match he turns to see an Equalist standing next to the chief.

"Look out!" Tenzin said but the Equalist grabs Lin by the shoulder and electrocutes her knocking her out and Tenzin Airbends at the Equalist but gets electrocuted by another Equalist from behind.

Another Equalist sneaks up behind a metal cop and electrocutes him knocking him out and more Equalists electrocute more metal cops from behind as the crowd keeps looking at the arena below.

Korra rises from the water along with the brothers and sees electricity going on in the stands.

"What?" Korra asked.

On the side of the water the lieutenant drops onto the platform under the arena and the Avatar gasps and the lieutenant charges his kali sticks while Korra tries to Waterbend at him but the lieutenant jabs his electric kali sticks into the water making her water drop back into the water and the Ferrets are electrocuted as they scream in pain and are knocked out and the crowd screams in fear.

"Folks, there is some sort of disturbance in the stands. Metalbender cops are dropping like bumble-flies. There appear to be masked members of the audience wielding strange devices on their hands." Shiro said and just then an Equalist opens the door and comes into the commentary booth. "One of them is in the booth with me right now, folks! He is leveling one of those glove devices at me now and I believe he is about to electrocute me. I am currently wetting my pants." Shiro said as the Equalist charges electricity from his glove.

On the ring Tahno and his Wolf-bats are looking around confused and scared and Amon and his group of Equalists rises from the ring's center platform and Tahno looks around in fear and in the Korra, Mako, and Bolin are still unconscious and they are pulled out of the water while the Equalists subdue Tenzin and Lin and Amon looks at Tahno.

"What's going on here, ref?" Tahno asked.

"I don't know!" The referee answered.

Amon and his Equalists approach the Wolf-bats who try to run away but Amon gets closer.

"Okay, you wanna piece of the Wolf-bats? Here it comes!" Tahno said as he launches a water blast at Amon who evades it and darts forward and the Wolf-bats try to bend at the Equalists but Amon dodges all their attacks.

Shaozu tries to Firebend only to be grabbed by Amon who is now behind Shaozu who screams and Tahno tries to save his teammate only to be caught by a bola and Ming is also caught in a bola and the Equalists are holding Tahno.

"Wait, please don't do this! I'll give you the championship pot! I'll-I'll give you everything! Just please don't take my bending!" Tahno begged.

Amon places his thumb on Tahno's forehead and starts to take his bending away and then the Equalist tosses the Wolf-bats' bodies near the edge of the ring and kicks them off into the water.

Just then a banner with the Equalist symbol is unrolled and more banners are being unrolled and the lieutenant drags Korra out of the water tied up and Korra is semi-conscious and has more visions of Aang with him and older Toph standing front of Metalbenders while Toph says something and a man is on trial and Aang is in the Avatar State and the man is cowering.

The lieutenant ties up the Fire Ferrets to one of the arena supports while Amon is holding a microphone.

"I believe I have your attention, benders of Republic City. So once again, the Wolf-bats are your pro-bending champions. It seems fitting that you celebrate three bullies, who cheated their way to victory because every day, you threaten and abuse your fellow non-bending citizens just like the Wolf-bats did to their opponents tonight. Those men were supposedly the best in the bending world and yet, it only took a few moments for me to cleanse them of their impurity." Amon said.

"Let this be a warning to all of you benders out there: If any of you stand in my way, you will meet the same fate. Now, to my followers: For years, the Equalists have been forced to hide in the shadows, but now we have the numbers and the strength to create a new Republic City. I'm happy to tell you that the time for change has finally come. Very soon, the current tyrannical bending regime will be replaced by a fair-minded Equalist government. You and your children will no longer have to walk the streets afraid. It's time to take back our city!" Amon said.

Korra, Mako, and Bolin regain consciousness.

"How do we get out of here?" Mako asked.

"With me."

Kang dropped in front of them. He had his hood and mask on as he unsheathed his Katana and cut the ropes as it freed Korra and her friends.

"Thanks," Korra said.

"Don't mention it," Kang said.

As Korra's friends were getting up, Kang gave her instructions, "Get innocents out of here!" he said.

"No, I have to face Amon," Korra said.

"No, your job is to be the Avatar and save people first," the Kang said, "if you fight Amon, innocent people will get hurt."

Kang climbed up the pillar and went up to the ring where Amon was. But before he climbed up to the ring, he threw a smoke bomb and climbed up. As he was in the smoked ring, he fought through every equalist member leading to a bloody mess on the ring. The new members were hard to defeat as they were before and it led to him being tired, but defeating them at the risk of sustaining stabs and deep gashes. When he found Amon, the now exhausted Kang started to attack him with a slash with his katana, but he missed as Amon dodged it.

Amon and Kang were at a face off as he thrusted his Katana, leading to Amon dodging it. Kang soon did a series of flurries as Amon dodged it and hit Kang with a few attacks of his own with some kicks on the body and some jabs and hooks across Kang's face.

Kang at that point knew that he had to change his style. So he sheathed his katana and got into a southpaw stance. He started with a leading jab then a spinning back kick landed and sent Amon to the ground. Within the split moment, Kang was about to end the fight as he did a palm strike with his left hand and the hidden blade extending out, but Amon grabbed Kang's left wrist and kicked the man in the face, leading to the Oni mask he wore to fall off.

"Since I unmasked you, Grandson of Avatar Aang, it's fair I unmask myself as well," Amon said while unmasking. As when he took off his mask, Kang was shocked to see what was behind the mask. He saw a man who had a horrific scar across his face.

"Who the hell are you?" Kang asked.

"Wouldn't you like to know," Amon said.

A cable came down for Amon to grab and he picked up his mask to put it on before leaving with quick succession. He was going up so fast that Kang couldn't do anything.

As the smoke died down, Kang looked around to see that the whole arena was cleared of all innocent people, but in exchange, there was metalbending police surrounding him. Lin, Tenzin, and Korra as well as her friends were standing together as they saw a bloody ring with shanked equalist members who were breathing deeply and an exhausted Kang who had his Katana on his hand with blood dripping on it.

Mako and Bolin were shocked to see Kang have a violent side to him as he had nearly killed every equalist member. Kang looked around to see the Metalbender Police as he had labored breathing and he started to faint and fall.

"Kang!" Tenzin ran as he caught his son.

A/N: Thanks for reading! Again for those who are wondering, Kang has the Hidden Blade on his left hand. If you have questions I'll answer them as best as I can without spoiling anything via PMs. Also I skipped an episode as Kang wasn't really involved in it.
