Masuto and Aki walked calmly through the streets as they made their way to Hiro's training ground, both of them wearing traditional fire nation clothing that had been popular in their homeland quite some time ago. Hiro had told them that it was respectful to wear traditional while practicing fire bending, and said that he wouldn't teach them unless they did. Neither of them minded it, and they actually liked wearing the uniforms since it reminded Aki of home.

"I'm sorry!"

Both Masuto and Aki turned to hear the voice that had suddenly appeared. Soon after, the two heard much more noise and went to investigate what was going on. Aki knew that they shouldn't worry about it, but her curiosity was getting the best of her and she was following her younger brother to see what was going on. Mastuo was the first to notice that something was running up a wall and onto the roof. Soon after, multiple people climbed up the same wall and appeared to be chasing whoever was up at the front. The only people that he knew that would be able to run up a wall like that were the airbenders... That would make the people chasing that person Rogue Benders. His eyes widened at the realization. He quickly turned to his sister with a calm look on his face. "Aki, you go to Master Hiro and tell him that I'll be late. It's an emergency." Before she had any time to respond, Masuto was running over towards the building that the Airbender and the Rogue Benders went up. He had yet to get the hang of using his fire to propel himself upwards, but he assumed that now was the best time to see if he could to it or not.

The young man ran at the building at full speed and jumped up high, flicking his wrists as soon as he reached the peak of his jump. From his wrists, fire lashed up in thin streams. Masuto put more power behind his flames as he felt himself descending, and smiled once he began to move upwards. It didn't take very long for him to reach the top of the building, but once he did, he sighed lightly. The Airbender was gone, and one of the Rogue Benders was talking about following the Airbender, who was now apparently a girl. "HEY!"

He called out to the Rogue Benders in an act of bravery, and put himself in a ready stance that he learned from Hiro. It was a more traditional stance, and wasn't like the augmented stance that the pro-benders had, or like the modern one that was a long ways away from being anything like the older stance. He wanted to buy that Airbender some time to escape, and he believed that his bending abilities were sufficient enough to take at least one of them out.

A young woman had been watching from the distance, watching an Airbender flee up a building, Rogue Benders following her, and a Fire Bender following all of them. It was an interesting sight, and although she wanted to run in and go get the Airbender, but her job at the moment was to stay under cover. She was good at acting and hiding, and if she wanted to, she could become invisible and live the life of someone else. Her long hair was bundled up in a hat that sat above her head, the bill of it covering her eyes so that nobody could see her amber eyes. She wore a long sleeve grey shirt with a brown leather jacket over that, and the collar of the jacket folded outwards so that most of her face was hidden. She was currently sitting at a small coffee shop, drinking her coffee and reading a book. She was just supposed to just watch all of the unfolding events, and she had the urge to do the job herself and take care of the Airbender herself. She couldn't fail at her job, and she needed to stay in line. She worked far to hard to prove her worth, and she wasn't going to mess it all up by going against the boss. With a small sigh, she slowly stood up and grabbed her book, walking slowly and carefully to make sure that she wouldn't give away her true identity.
