Korra's POV

My name is Korra, the Avatar, and I was heading to Republic City, so to train with Tenzin in airbending.  I awoken, as I sit up and rubbed off any sleep in my eyes.  And I realized that the boat had stopped, meaning that we've reached the city.

Korra: *wakes up Naga* Naga, we're here.

As Naga is waking up, I go to see if the door of the cargo hold open, letting bright sunlight into the room.  I squint my eyes as the light shines through.  I go back to Naga and on her back.

Korra: Come on, girl, let's go.

And Naga run passed some of the crewmen and down the ramp.

Korra: *waves to the crewmen* Thanks for the ride.

I ride on Naga down the docks.  I couldn't help but look on and awe at the sight of the city.  The buildings are so tall, it's like the could reach the sky, am I could see so many Sato-mobiles.

Korra: Wow.  Look at this place.  I've never seen so many Sato-mobiles.
As we kept moving, I stopped to see a very large statue at the center of the bay.  It was the statue of Avatar Aang.  The Avatar before me.

Korra: ...

I then look to the left and see !y destination, "Air Temple Island".

Korra: Air Temple Island.  That's where Tenzin lives.  *to Naga* Ready for a little swim, girl?

But Naga started sniffing the air, and ran towards the other direction.

Korra: Okay, okay.  Food first, then Air Temple.

We move down the streets, into some heavy traffic, nearly avoiding the cars on the way.

Korra: Watch it, Naga!  Look out!

A car nearly went passed us and hits another car.  I looked back and hoped that no one got hurt.

Man: Watch where you going!

I realized that were now running passed a few bystanders as well.

Korra: Oops.  Sorry about that.  Excuse us.  Coming through.  Heads up.  Sorry.  We're new in town.

Naga stopped for a moment and was sniffing the ground until she stops at a nearby tent, and sticks her head inside.  I poke my head in the ten and saw a lot of tasty skewer meat.  Naga was about to eat the food, but I stopped her from doing so.

Korra: Naga, wait.

Naga: *whines*

I diamont of Naga and go to the front.

Korra: *picks up a skewer* We'll take one of everything, please.

Female street vender: That'll be 20 yuans.

Korra: *smiles nervously* Uh, I don't have any money.

Female street vender: *snatches back skewer* Then what good you are to me?

I slump my arms down and lowered my head, saddened of not being able to get any food here, and go back to Naga.

Korra: *to Naga* Don't worry, girl.  The city's huge.  I bet we can find a place to rustle up something to eat.

Later

Now I'm at a park, where I caught three fishes.  I skewer them I sticks, and firebend them till they're cooked.  As I was about to enjoy my meal, this old guy with grey hair and a beard just came out of the bush, surprising me.

Vagabond: Uh, say, think I could get one of them tasty-smelling fishies?

Korra: Oh, uh, yeah, sure.

He gets out of the bush, takes a fish and eats.

Korra: *curious* So...do you...live in that bush?

Vagabond: *proudly* Yes, presently that is what I do call home.  Took me a while to procure a bush that beauteous.  This park is quite popular with all the vagabonds.

Korra: So there are a lot of you out here?  I thought everyone in this city was living it up.

Vagabond: *laughs* You got a lot to learn, newcomer.  Welcome to Republic City.

(CinemaSins: Roll credits!)

Korra: ...

I then hear a whistle blowing from behind me.  I turn and see a policeman at a bridge.

Policeman: Hey, you, stop!  You can't fish here.

Vagabond: You best skedaddle.

I see the guy jump back in the bush.  I get up and whistled for Naga to come.  When she came, I hop on her back and we are able to get away.

Later

I'm now far away from that cop until I see a man in front of what looks like a large poster of a man in a wired looking mask.

Protestor (on megaphone): Are you tired of the tyranny of benders?  Then join The Equilists.  For too long, the bending elite of this city have forced non-benders to live as lower-classed citizens.  Join Amon, and together we will tear down bending establishment.

Korra: What are you talking about?  Bending is the coolest thing in the world.

Protestor: Oh, yeah?  Let me guess.  You're a bender.

Korra: *confidently puts her hand on her hips* Yeah, I am.

Protestor: *smirking* And I bet you'd love to knock me off this platform with some waterbending, huh?

Korra: *crosses her arms* I'm seriously thinking about it.

Protestor: Thos is what's wrong with the city.  *points at Korra* Benders like this girl only use their power to oppress us.

After he said that, everybody turns to me and started booing me.

Korra: *defensive* What?  I'm not oppressing anyone!  You're...  You're oppressing yourself! 

Protestor: That didn't even make sense!

I turn Naga around to get away from here, as I didn't want to deal with this guy's shit anymore.  I kept moving until we could hear the boos.

???: Not having a good time today, aren't you?

Korra: Hm?

We stopped when I heard a different voice.  I look to my right to see some boy, who is leaning against a tree while using a knife to eat a piece of apple.

???: *casual* Hey.

Korra: Hmph.  Why'd you like to know?

???: Well, since we're both fellow benders, I thought you could have somebody to talk to.

I see him take out another apple before tossing it to me, which I quickly caught.  I look at the apple and back to the guy before back to the apple before shrugging and taking a bite out of it.  I get off of Naga and walk next to the guy.  I look over at him, and I noticed a scar on the right side of his face.  He then look at me, so I quickly looked away.

???: So, you must be new here.

Korra: Yeah, I just came here today.

???: Really?

Korra: Yeah.

???: You seemed a bit upset.  Something wrong?

Korra: Well, earlier, I was taking a stroll in the park, then this guy said that I was 'oppressing' him, just because I'm a bender.

???: Oh, that guy.  Yeah, he's a member of the Equilists.

Korra: Oh yeah, he mentioned it too.  What are the Equilists?

???: They're an anti-bnending movement.  They believe that bending is what's wrong with the world today.  Their leader is a guy who calls himself "Amon", who started off with a small group of followers, but now he's gaining more members by the day.

Korra: Huh.  So that's why.

???: Yep.  But anyways, let me introduce myself.  My name is Chang.

I see Chang holding up his hand.  I smiled and shake his hand.

Korra: Korra...
