[color=lightblue]Old man Wu was just a janitor, thank you very much. He didn't mind those benders with their flashy moves, but he was perfectly comfortable not having any crazy powers. It was hard to argue with someone who looked as satisfied as Old Man Wu.

He had been working as the gym's janitor for nearly six decades now. He had seen it all, from the legends of Probending to the washouts. He was a walking memorabilia. His probending cap was given to him by none other than Bolin. Even his broom had Shun-Li, the great Firebending probender, inscribe upon it. Everyone in the gym knew old man Wu. And to them, he was as unchangeable as the pillars that held up the great gym and arena.  

He was nearing 80 - a sprightly, wiry old man with a twinkle in his grey eyes and a spring in his step. That was most days. Today, however, something was bothering him.

He shuffled along the corridor, making sure to catch every spot on the floor in his methodical way. He reached the water bending area and heard grunts and breaths. He peeked in to see Eska training rigorously. Wu smiled. Say what you will about these benders, but they were a determined lot. And he liked Eska. The girl always had a smile for him, and seemed genuinely interested in his life. Perhaps, she could help him with his problem?

He coughed conspicuously as he entered the room, making sure Eska heard him come in. The last thing he wanted was some jumpy bender to send a wave of water towards him.

"Isn't it way too late to work up a sweat?" he asked Eska, walking closer to her, holding his broom.[/color]
