Fandom Avatar; The Cult of Abbadon

Pinwheel

You spin me right round' baby...
The Cult of Abaddon
A plague is rapidly progressing throughout the land. It was conceived in the very heart of the Earth Kingdom. Unlike many other plagues before it, it's symptoms do not result in a deterioration of the body; this miasma will eat away at the mind. The Earth King was the first to be enthralled by this plague, it started with jarring voices that only he could hear. At first he had ignored these voices, attributing them to his age and poor genetics. It became more strenuous to ignore them as it progressed; they became much more demanding with time. He received extremely painful headaches that would only be relieved when he did what was asked. He became a slave to their demands very rapidly. When these voices asked him to send his soldiers onto the Fire Nations borders he was so far gone that he did so without protest.

The miasma spread rapidly from the ensuing chaos. Many people across the fire and earth nation had become inflicted with the very same madness. The disorder would be labeled as the red plague. It was categorized by the red, swollen eyes it's victims would likely possesses-- they rarely rested due to the many things the voices demanded of them. Soon, a cult was sprung forth from that madness. They called themselves the order of abaddon. There is little knowledge of their motives. Since the war began between the fire nation and the earth kingdom, they have sought to cause civil unrest throughout the rest of the world. They are a terrorist organization that must be stopped.

There will be a meeting held by the president of republic city to discuss the state of the world and perhaps find a way to calm the two warring nations. She has sent several invitations to benders, politicians, engineers and many other people to help solve this problem. She is a women that comes from a time before this, one where the avatar brought peace to all. The location of the current avatar is unfortunately unknown to all. The city itself has been under heavy guard for some time. The president believes that the date of this meeting was leaked and she does not underestimate the powers held by the order of abaddon.

You are either one of the invited individuals, a refugee of the ongoing war, or a resident/visitor within the walls of republic city.

The Cult of Abaddon

Repubic city is currently under heavy guard, armored units patrol the streets warily. There would be a meeting in approximately six hours, one that would discuss the state of the world and the sightings of a cult. The cult does not refer to itself as such, their preferred name is the "order" of abaddon. They have attacked many areas of the world in a seemingly sporadic manner. They were responsible for numerous raids on the Southern Air temple and various other areas. More recently, they set off an IED in the southern water tribe resulting in several casualties and many injuries. It's members are all afflicted with something called the red plague, a disorder that causes auditory illusions and insomnia. As it continues the disorder will eat away at the victims mental state until there is nothing left. There has been nothing like it prior and the greatest medics are struggling to figure out a cure.

The invitees are all gathering in a slightly chilled republic city. The cold in the air is just enough to put someone on edge. Regardless of circumstances republic city still has many attractions that tourist are welcome to visit. If you want food native to your home town, you are certain to find it here where people from all walks of life are welcome. There are exhibits in which you can look at foreign animals and many other types of attractions. The city is not without its dark side however, it is home to several gangs as well as cactus juice smugglers. There are also rumors that the red plague has decided to show its face in republic city for the first time. Due to quarantine measures taken up by them, this should be unfeasible. Whether there is any truth to those rumors is yet to be known.

 
Imp Bahlol

The engine of the train roared as it blazed forward, the tracks below its surface had vibrated with equal intensity. The trains destination was the capital of the United Republic of Nations and it was rapidly barreling towards its goal. The United Republic of Nations has taken a neutral stand on the war, their only wish is that it ends before it reaches their borders. The surrounding terrain was mountainous and humid, luckily the train was well ventilated for the less wayfaring passengers. The majority of the passengers were citizens from the Earth Kingdom, but there was section of the train reserved for military officials. The Earth King had sent a diplomat to republic city to discuss the red plague and by extension, the cult of abaddon.

The diplomat in question did not fit the bill for his position. There was a huge disparity in the expected appearance and reality. The obvious difference was that he was less than half the age of former ambassadors. Ignoring his age he did not even look like he was from the earth kingdom adorning pale hair and auburn eyes. The only signifier that he had any relation to the earth kingdom was the bright green outfit he wore. Besides him were several individuals that fit the bill perfectly. A corporal and several privates had surrounded him; the ensemble served not only to protect him, but to also buffer the security of republic city.

After some time they arrived at the Republic City Train Station. The passengers were not allowed to exit immediately, as several government officials in yellow jacket hazard suits had stopped them in their tracks. One by one they examined the passengers to ensure that they were not afflicted with the red plague. The soldiers were exempt from this check, as the Earth King had personally insured them that none in his ranks were afflicted with such a disease. One by one, the soldiers exited the doors of the train, causing many of the nearby citizens to look onward with confusion. "Did republic city forge an alliance with the Earth Kingdom in secret?" many had pondered aloud.

When the soldiers had exited the train, Imp had turned to the corporal and gestured towards the rest of the soldiers. "Corporal Laong, can you escort these soldiers to republic city's police force?" he asked simply. "I will be fine by my-" his sentence was cut short.

A scream cut through the air behind them, when Imp gazed behind his back a crazed women came charging out of the train. "ABADDON WILL CURSE ALL WHO REJECT HIM! HE IS HERE, IN THIS VERY CITY. REPENT NOW, WHILST YOU CAN!" She chanted again and again while avoiding the perusing officers. The women grabbed one of the fleeing passengers by the scruff of the neck and shook them violently with a unwieldy strength. "REPENT, REPENT!" she screamed in to the poor man's ears. Tears shed from his eyes, and genuine fear was easily read on his features. The woman was finally detained in a rock cage, along with the man. He came too close, they could not risk it. Quickly the two men in yellow jackets escorted them away from the station.

"Well that was something," he stated in a bewildered tone. "As I was saying, Corporal. I will fare fine on my lonesome for some time," he finished.

Laong stood still, raising an eyebrow at Imp's initial proposition. Crossing his hands to his chest, he was distracted by the crazed woman yelling. Putting a hand near the ambassador, the other soldiers followed suit, trying to protect him in case she was to come to try and harm Imp.

"At ease men." His voice sounded quite different. It wasn't booming, but it wasn't high pitched either. Just average. "Ambassador, with all due respect, I was tasked with protecting you. My men can be sent to the police station, but, until we return back, I will have to be at your side." Some could pick out that he said the last sentence with a bored tone.

Laong turned to his men, saluting them. "Alright, you lot report to the police station, and report to the officer in charge. Guong, you will act as squad leader. Am I understood?" The soldiers saluted, before turning and going in the direction of the police station. Laong turned around again, facing Imp. He put his hands behind his back, adopting a rather bored look on his face, looking around.

Ulva stepped out of the same train as the ambassador though a couple carriages away with less attention. In truth she preferred this way, she had just found out over the radio about the attack at the southeart water tribe and she was concerned and saddened. The southern water tribe had enough death and destruction with the civil war, let lone further terrorist attack. She had already regretted having to leave her home nation and that was part of the reason she had tried to help this in the earth and fire nation with their war. However she could not go back, it was difficult to charter a ship to go there nowadays, not to mention unsafe. More that that, she was now involved in sorting out something greater than the civil war as much for herself as the rest of the world.

She found herself in a line with the other passengers waiting to be searched by the soldiers. Part of her was comforted by the idea that the Republic was taking her reports about the plague seriously to take steps to quarantine those infected. It was all for naught though, as the physical symptoms don't seem to appear until late in the infection at least that how it seemed for her. She had yet to get the telltale red eyes though it had been a couple of weeks since she began to hear there voices. Guilt filled her at the irony of having to work having to contain the plague while being a career herself, however she told herself it was for the best. She needed to be were she could do most good and helping end a war and work to end the plague would trump any possible any spread she would cause. Not like she hadn't taken any precaution. Like the physical symptoms, she had found people are not infectious immediately. At least that what she believed.
 
Being grapped by the hair wasn't a good sign, though he kind of like it. The thugs looked at him weird with a slight laugh behind it, he was in a tight situation. "Just because you're going to be a princess of the fire nation doesn't mean you can go around, and do whatever you want." As he pulled his head up that has now met the face of the leader more clear, he looked at him dead in the eye. "Believe it or not, their are some guys out there wanting your head." He explained.

"So I have a bounty on my head? Please" Ikka says, as he charged his heel into his groin. Ikka watched him fall. And the others went ahead, and attacked him. Ikka evaded attacks left, and right. Before a guy could even bend, ikka placed his thumb on the palm and, bent his hand. He then kicks him with his right leg into his side. And again into his stomach, watching him fall. Once he turned around, without much time to think he was decked in the face and, was launched to the wall of the building.

"Ouch...how can you hurt a pretty girl like that, you're mean!" He says in a sarcastic, and playful manner. Before they could touch him, ikka placed his both hands on the ground. He then pulls his right leg slightly up, as he twisted his body a burst of flames came from his foot that knocked them on the ground. Once that was done, he used both of his hands to balance himself upside down and, flipped himself back up. Ikka skipped back a little. The leader got fed up, and charged uncontrollably at ikka. Ikka took the inniciative to form two fist, as index finger on both sides extended, but kept its form and, perform his quick four strikes to the leader. Which in result made his body feel like jello, his body would drag itself and, ikka slightly tap his forehead as his body would fall.

"Whew, now that's over." He says, as he turns around. "This isn't over yet, he will come, and stop people like you! You bet my life on it!!" The man yelled.

Ikka walked out of the ally, and head where the train station was. "He, who's he and, what does he mean by taking people like me out" His face went from proud, to worried quick. "What is this stupid plague people are talking about? Is that what he's referring to?" Ikka lifted his head up, and began to place his left hand that form a fist into his right palm of his hand.

"Well if he's planning to take me out, he'll have a hard time tussling with this one" he says excitingly, as he strikes a pose as if he's showing off. His attention was soon brought to the train station as it looks like there was some activity going on. He began to fix up his hair, and went to check it out.​

At the car factory, there were multiple firebenders wearing full uniform. After the discovery of the red plaque and what it does to people in public, factory workers are required to wear a face mask, thick gloves, long sleeve shirts, thick cargo pants and boots. Not only to prevent the infection of the plaque inside Republic City, but also to lessen fire-related accidents inside the factory. There were some automated machines designed to carry the cars outside the factory, and also some that assembles the car. The non-bender workers there would ready the car for delivery on another state and some would carry certain pieces of the car to a specific place inside the factory. The firebenders would help melt the metal, and attach some bigger pieces of the car by melting the sides where the vehicle would be ready to drive after inspection.

"Boy, today's work is hard." Shiro quietly muttered. He was wearing a long-sleeved navy-blue jacket with a white t-shirt below it. He was also wearing thick cargo pants and boots, which he wore when he was working, so it would look quite messy. And then, a deep voice suddenly replied to him. "I agree with you, kid," The voice was coming from behind him, and when he looked behind, it was his boss, "When the red plaque became known to public, I thought every factory in this city would have their work less harder. But it turned out to be the opposite." His boss said, with a hint of sadness in his voice, "Anyways, this factory is done for a few months. I hope you have enough savings kid."

"Thanks. Nice working with you, boss." Shiro high-fived his boss and parted their ways. He turned on his car and decided to get a train ticket to Ba Sing Se tomorrow, so he would temporarily live there and would also get a job in the middle ring. When he finally entered the area where he can see the Republic City Train Station, he saw a crazy woman and a terrified man both inside a rock cage, with police surrounding it. Shiro exited his car, confused. He entered inside the station, and saw people in yellow hazard suits, a highly-ranked police, and the ambassador beside him. Shiro sat on the bench just beside the exit to the train station and tried to process what's happening.

Ikka of the fire nation

Getting a clear look at what's going on, it seems like someone playing the mr famous role and, have everyone wait because he's important. Ikka began to feel more of a shocked feeling, as he realized some of them were from the earth kingdom. He began to clinch his fist, as if he was ready to give someone a punishment. "So it was you guys that started this plague nonsense that made it to the fire nation! I've heard rumors, and now they're all true. Your pathetic king started it, and spreading it across the land!"

"How will you repent your sins? It killed one of my family members, and now these people that are caged up will meet their fate" he yells. He was completely infuriated, because of the earth Kingdom and, there lack of selflessness. It was indeed a sin, and in hia mind he wants to put their death on the name of the fire lord.

"What do you gotta say for yourself, you dirty pigs!" Suddenly a stream of fire left its mouth. D3lmoniko D3lmoniko Pinwheel Pinwheel ThatGuyWithSouvlaki ThatGuyWithSouvlaki takki takki
 
Ulva heard the fire nation man shout and near becoming violent at the earth Kingdom deligation and became concerned, she had plenty of experience in her time of how far such statement could escalate. She rushed out of the the line, hand reaching down to and holding on to her water skin as she made two dance like turn forward to avoid the hazmat soldiers who tried to get in her way. She acted on instict months of being around both earth and fire nation soldiers in one room, she uncorked the water skin and with the movement of her other hand bended the water inside out before swinging it around to meet the stream of flame that came out of the fire nation man. The water extinguished most of the flame and enough remained to to give the man a good cold splash of water in his face.

"I say cool off buddy!" She called to the man in a stern raised voice. "Many in the Earth Kingdom lost people to this plague and the war as well. We are not here to asign blame but see what we can do to halt the plague and the cult!"
 
Imp did not expect Laong to comply with his wishes, but figured he should at least try. How likely was it that trouble would come for him in this city when it was so heavily guarded? There were few who were foolish enough to try and attack an ambassador. Imp let out a sigh and turned, gesturing wordlessly for his bodyguard to follow. The instant he did so he stood facing what appeared to be a fire nation native, and she was fuming.

Imp stood staunch in the face of the gout of fire. There was no doubt in his head that it would not be allowed to reach him. He expected a wall of stone to be constructed in front of him, or for the frantic women to be immediately incapacitated. When a flurry of water blotted out the flames instead, he was surprised and interested. Imp turned his head unceremoniously towards the waters source, looking over the women as if he was somehow interested. Something seemed to click in his head then while he gazed at the women's face. Imp spoke with a smirk towards the women, "Miss Ulva, I have heard of you before!" He gave a brief bow towards her direction to offer her his respect. "I would like to thank you for your efforts in the war, in lieu of the Earth King. I must also say you are as kind and beautiful as I was told." Imp spoke kindly.

"But, attacking a military official in a neutral city is not an offense that can be easily forgiven," his voice changed sharply to one that spoke as if he was scolding a small child. "And I do not find your slanderous allegations to be amusing young lady," he said shaking his head menacingly. The area was nearly cleared already due to the fear surrounding the plagued women. It only cleared further when the fire bender chose to yell their drivel at Imp. "Go ahead then corporal, restrain this brat so we can hand them off to the republic city police force," he said with a disinterested hand gesture towards the brat in question.

Laong grunted at the girl fire bender. He moved to intercept, but the water tribe girl intervened and diffused the situation. He smiled at Ulva. "Yes, we thank you." His expression quickly changed to a neutral one.

Moving behind Ikka, he put his hand on his shoulder, his other hand attempting to put a pair of cuffs on her, made out of earth. "Kind of feisty for a young girl, aren't you? And for your information-" Laong's face went close to Ikka's ear. "-I bathe regularly." His face went away, looking at Imp, then at Uvla. "You two should come. We need witnesses." The hand that was still on Ikka's shoulder had a strong grip on it.

Ikka looked at the women who put out the fire that he let out from his little anger he had. Ikka looked behind him, seeing an an official attempting to hand cuff him but, he slipped through its grasp enough to escape. He then went under him, and came back up.

Once he recalls what the man had whispered to him about bathing. He began to sniff himself a little, and his face turned red in embarrassment, as two of his index fingers would touch each other. "About that...Yeah i ran into some trouble on my way here" he says, getting a slight laugh off and, madr his escape.

"No way am i getting apprehended by them, i don't want to be too reckless and, end up on the face of the city. If my dad See's it, then rest in peace." It was an uncomfortable feeling, but he mustn't allow that to happen.

Ulva put back the cork as the other two gentlemen stepped in to sort out the fire nation girl. She gave Imp a kind smile, ignoring the flirtation from him not really impressed by it. "I only did what should have been done. There is too much death these days."She said casually straightening herself up and looking like she dud nothing special when the officer thanked her as well. She was more concerned for the girl, she understood the girls frustration and felt she didn't deserve punishment. "Listen I don't think an arrest is ne..."She went to say before the girl made her escape, Ulva smirked at the sight a little impressed and watched the escape.
 
Lei-ShenSat in his office with his head cradled between his thumb and forefinger, Lei-Shen rubbed his temples in small circles to try and calm the headache that pounded in his head. He wasn't sure what was causing it, but he took an educated guess and thought he was probably exhausting himself trying to regain at least some control of this damned city. Or maybe it was the idiocy of this whole "Abbadon" nonsense finally getting to him. Lei concluded it was both. It didn't help that whenever he tried to reassure himself that this wouldn't be the worst crisis he'd had to deal with, it only got worse. People were already beginning to spout stories about plague victims inside the city, yet with no delineation of facts. As soon as news of what happened at the train station got out, it was only going to be a matter of time before the whole city fell apart.

Maybe, if we're all still alive when this is over, I'll get a house on Ember Island and spend the rest of my life relaxing by the beach. That'd be nice. But right now, I have a duty to this city, and that is to maintain what little order is left, and to keep even the tiniest germ of the plague outside. Lei pondered, something he found himself doing a lot these days. Suddenly, a loud knock at the door derailed his train of thought, making him pull his hand away from his head as he looked towards the sound. "Captain?" asked the woman on the other side.
"Yeah, yeah, come in." Lei said briskly. The door swung open and the officer came through, giving a duly respectful nod."Sir, the suspect from the train station is ready for questioning." Lei returned her nod. "Alright. Let's make this quick now. I'd rather not come down with whatever she has." Standing up from his chair, Lei tucked a clipboard under his arm and marched out of his office, beckoning the officer to follow him down to the suspect's cell."So, how's our plague victim doing right now? The doctors treating her okay?" he asked, turning the corner that led towards the holding facility. "She just got here, but she's calm." replied the other officer. "Or at least . . . as calm as a plaguer can get."

Fine by me. thought Lei. With luck, she might still be sane enough to give him some meaningful answers. The officer accompanying him motioned towards the plague woman's holding cell, which had been temporarily been converted to an impromptu interrogation room. The woman in question sat behind a (supposedly airtight) glass wall, handcuffed hands in her lap. Flanking her were two health workers in hazmat suits, both standing still as statues. On Lei's side of the glass, there was only a small table and chair. "Good afternoon, Miss Yun." he spoke, keeping his tone civil yet distant. "I trust you know why you're here today." Tentatively, he sat down, laid the clipboard down on the table, clicked his pen, and went to work. "Now, can you start by describing what happened at the train station for us?"

Shiro overlooked the whole situation, but the fire-bender girl was loud. That girl didn't try to contain her anger, instead she released it on the ambassador. For a moment, he thought that the girl would beat everyone around her and run havoc around the train station, then suddenly another girl put the fire out of the girl's hand. Shiro stood up and tried to think what the girl had said, Your pathetic king started it.

He didn't know. If the origin of the plaque was on Ba Sing Se, that meant he shouldn't go there. Because of the plaque spreading across the land, the isolated earth city would probably have the lower and middle rings in chaos right now. Neither work nor temporary home for him was waiting there. But that wasn't enough. If the girl knew something, he needed to know. Suddenly, the girl escaped. Shiro ran to the direction where the girl was escaping and followed her.

"Hey! Wait up!" Shiro commanded at the girl while running.

Imp's eyes followed the fire bender as they made their escape, paying careful attention to the fire nation insignia at their back. His lips creased to make an unimpressed scowl. The fire bender was quick and before he knew it they were out of sight. " I'll let it rest for now. But, if I see them again they will not see the same kindness," he said sighing. The train station was starting to be evacuated, a case was opening pertaining to the appearance of that plague stripped lunatic. Despite being a representative from the Earth Kingdom, he also would have to evacuate soon. "Miss Ulva, I know that you know the red plague better than anybody around," he mentioned nonchalantly. "I'd love to ask you a few questions about your experiences. There is a tea shop near President Nuan's headquarters, if you have the time," he asked.

"Corporal Laong is not the best at detaining criminals, but I was told he makes for an excellent bodyguard!" he said with a small laugh. He slapped his arm unexpectantly around the corporal's shoulder Imp had heard some rumors about Laong and his abilities. They called Laong a "bull in a china shop," and Imp had to know why first hand.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The woman jolted forward almost immediately after the man spoke. Miss Yun let out a growl towards the man as if she were some sort of primal animal. The men in the room were luckily able to restrain her in her chair before she hurt someone or herself. The women continued snarling until her stamina had depleted. She hung her neck low, with her long hair draping over her face to conceal her face and eyes. She had began to weep, underneath the mat of hair that had covered her face. Unlike other recipients of the plague her eyes were not swollen or red, suggesting it had not yet advanced to that state. It would explain how she managed to slip past the initial screening back at the Earth Kingdom. Still, her mental state was significantly depleted despite not being affected by the plague for long. The men had already checked her records and apparently Miss Yun had already had a long list of crimes associated with her outbreaks before she had even become afflicted.

"where am I?... where is my son, why are you keep me here?" She spoke lowly in-between her guttural weeps and spasms. She was near silent afterwards, with the occasional whimper being audible.

A gentle hand had been placed on Lei-shen's shoulder, should he look up, he would see it had belonged to Song Shui, director of Zaofu's police force. Song had leaned forward towards the glass plane, peering at the women as if she was looking for something underneath that mess of hair. "My name is Song Shui, President Nuan gave me the clearance to be present for this and I am to give a report to her during a meeting scheduled this evening." Song spoke, removing her hand from his shoulder and instead placing it upon her chin in contemplation. "I looked at her records and she apparently has a record of violent outbursts," she pondered briefly before her follow up question. "Is it possible that this women is not a cultist and by extension, not a victim of the plague? She could merely be an ill women in need of help," she stated.

News of the plague is wide-spread by now, it could be possible that she simply saw the news reports and had a mental outburst based on them. There was someone in the city who had more experience with the plague than anybody else. If anyone know, it would be the women called Ulva. "Regardless it would be wise to ask her about this... what was the name? Abadongo?" She stated.

Laong just sighed, looking at the girl just run away. His eyes were fixed on the emblem on her back. Yet again he crossed his hands to his chest, then his eyes widened as he looked at Imp's hand on his shoulder.

Shooting a rather forced smile, he looked at Imp, then at Ulva. "Well, capturing rowdy kids wasn't in my job description." The next part he said with quite a scowl and a low tone. "And neither was guarding you." His expression turned to a normal one, his eyes on Ulva. "And the tea place sounds like a nice idea." He forced a smile yet again.

As he was running, ikka suddenly heard a voice. It wasn't very recognizable as he never heard it before. Ikka began to stop, and turned around to see that a boy that looked his age was the one that said it.

He began to get in his rightful stace, with his left fist pulled to the side of his face, and his right a little away from it.

"If you're with one of them, then I'm not gonna get taken so easily." He says. He was hoping that he wasn't with one of them, but he has to be cautious about it and, wait until the right moment. takki takki
 
Ulva looked at both and smirked a little at their banter, it was a sense of amusement she had not had for a while and for a moment eased her troubles. The representative's seemingly uncontrollable need to flirt not withstanding it might be an interesting time dinning with the two. She looked at the officer with a smirked."You are a strange officer of the law rhst you dont protect or arrest." She said teasingly before looking at the both of them." I suppose I could use a drink after the excitement today. You would be suprised how the old song "water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink" applies to one like me. Lead the way... Though I cant promise I am a good speaker."
 
Shiro held both of his hands up, signaling that he doesn't want a fight. "I'm clearly not one of them. I just want to know what you know." He calmly said. "This whole red plaque thingy has been giving me headaches. Pun unintended. I only know what everyone knows." If the girl believed what he said, then it would've been beneficial for him. If not, well, he was ready for a fight.

Shiro put his left hand on his pocket, and the other one as a free hand. He sat down on the stack of plywood which was placed just on the left side of him as he calmly waited for a response.

"Hmm, well good to know." he says, as he let down both of his hands. And placed them behind his neck. "If you was, by the looks of it I'd place you on your back quicker than those guys i had to deal with when I got here." he says in a jokingly manner.

"Anyways, what do you need? It looks like you want something he says, as he layed on his side as he sat on the ground with his legs on each other from different sides. takki takki
 
"Well, you said you came from the Fire Nation and plaque had spread in there and killed your parents. I'm... I'm sorry for your loss." Shiro said in a tone of sadness and honesty. "Anyways, what else do you know about the plaque?"

He rested his back on the rough and rocky brick wall and faced the sky. They weren't too far from the train station, so he hoped that the police didn't care about what to girl did. But if they did, Shiro didn't plan to fight the law but instead, run away and avoid confronting them.

Sitting on the ground felt unroyalty, but he had to take a break from it before his dad or anyone else finds out that he's missing. Ikka placed his eblow on his bent left knee, and placed his chin on his open hand, ready to answer his question.

"I get alot of crazy stories from people back in the fire nation, but i never believed them. Wished I knew there were better fire natives than some weirdos drowning themselves in booze. And it wasn't my parents that died, even though my mother almost caught it before she was in the fire nation, since the origin came from loser earth kingdom." he says as he made some hand gestures while explaining.

Ikka began to switch to a more comfortable position, as both of his arms were on the ground and, his hands supporting his chin. He then carries both of his legs over to where his head was. "Much better."

"About this plague business you're curious about. The plague is like a virus that takes its victim by suprise, and takes control of ones consciousness. Then whatever happens next just happens in a twisted way. You should've heard what happen to the earth king, that made that thing in the fire nation. It's faint, but im pretty sure they're more alert than those dirty losers." He explains.

"Also I'm completely positive that someone is behind it, Maybe some cult? Who knows, but you better watch your back" He says in an exiting tone. He wonders its some unique bending ability, since he never heard of anything dangerous taking control of people minds like that.

It could be as dangerous as energy bending, and blood bending. Two highly classified bending skills that are as rare to gain such as lava bending. takki takki
 
Shiro lowered his head down and stared at the wall in front of him. He breathed the alley air while he was listening. "Wow... Whoever made this plaque, they must be on Ba Sing Se," He calmly said surprisingly, since he wasn't really calm right now, just listening to this story, "And the cult must either be the one who made the plaque and send it to the public or the ones that can't be infected by the impending virus."

And then, something popped out of Shiro's head. He looked at the girl, "Or what if the plaque is controlling the persons to be their believers? And do you know that only the Fire Nation are infected? What about the Northern Water Tribe and the Western Air Temple? Gahh!" He shouted in despair. His voice was so loud that it echoed the alley and was heard on the nearby streets and houses.

"At this rate, the governments, the people will fall. The world... will fall." Shiro said in despair as he lowered his back and put both his hands into his temples. "Is there even a cure?

Ikka raised his legs up high, and placed both of his hands on the ground which made into a hand stand. "Well, duh if it started out in the earth kingdom then of course they'll be in the earth kingdom" he says, as he was in perfect balance with his hand stand.

Ikka kind of personally know of a person that is involved with the plague, is he the leader? No he's just an assistant, and also a friend of ikkas. His plan was to burn the earth kingdom off of the map, so his plan is going well. However ikka isn't fully on the operation, he's more of someone that works in the shadows.

"I'm not a scientists, so I wouldn't know anything about a cure. But it's a possibility that maybe a water bender or whatever that can nullify it, and keep it stable." Ikka explains.

"But that's just my hunch, i dont know for a fact." He says, as he went back on his two feet.

"Don't worry, someone might save the day. Who knows." takki takki
