Takeshi was strolling down the street, everything around him was mentioning the probending tonight, even the people were excited about it. Never in his life had he heard of probending so this was a new experience for him, which he was intrigued about. There seemed to be sign-ups to participate in the event later on in the night, and Takeshi might consider participating. But for now, he needed to focus on what he was doing; he needed to buy some food. He ran through the city looking for the store; when he finally arrived at the store, Takeshi saw a huge poster for the probending match, which was the final "nail in the coffin" to convince Takeshi to at least go. It was a colorful poster with giant letters advertising the match between the Fire Ferrets and The Fairy Tales, speaking of the opportunity to "show what you've got" on the bottom side.

Takeshi got the food he needed and walked out towards where he was living for the time being. The place wasn't all that bad, it was a rather small home with a landlord who Takeshi had to pay rent to, but the rent was worth it because it had a small area in the back where he could continue to train unbothered. The only problem was the money because he had some... questionable methods of acquiring it. No one will notice the missing floor pieces right? The only job he managed to find was selling wood and stone to a construction company and a lot of the time those materials come from the floors of unsuspecting homeowner; not the most honest of os but it allowed him to put earthbending to "good" use and it payed decently. Takeshi was preparing to go tothe probending but he stopped; something felt weird, he just wasn't sure whether it was good-weird or bad-weird.
