EQUALIST TERRORIST LEADER AMON FINALLY ARRESTED, NOT BY THE POLICE BUT BY AN AIRBENDER
-By Hirar of Republic Daily
It has not been a secret to the people that benders of four nations possess the ability to empower themselves, however such capability is sometimes misused and is utilized to terrorize the non-benders. This happened all around the world and it has been occurring since the division of benders and non-benders, Republic City is no exception.
Recently a group of activists who advocate equality emerged in Republic city, they are known as the Equalist, led by a great orator and fighter Amon. Their motivation, though noble, was executed poorly, as sometimes their actions were seen as terrorism especially when they attacked bender indiscriminately, innocent or not innocent alike.
"I'm not against the Equalist's philosophy but I am not in agreement with their method. I mean they involve innocent benders on this, I have a good neighbor that got his bending taken away by them. He was a great guy, never used his bending against innocent people, so when I heard that he got his bending taken away I was shocked, and quite frankly angry at them. I feel sorry for my neighbor" A direct statement from one of the citizens, whom we cannot disclose his name due to his request for anonymity.
"What do I think of the equalists actions? I agree with them! They are doing what people have been blind to for years! The root of all the problems in this world are benders who have too much power on their hands!" Also a direct statement from one of the citizens, though we got permission to say his name we decided not to.
There was a duality among the people of Republic City. There are those who are in agreement with them and those who are opposed, however what can't be denied is their notoriosity.
Recently, their biggest offense yet, was that they organized an assault against Avatar Korra. An attack that happened on 170 AG at the Pro-bending Arena exactly at 9:56 pm.
Many Metalbending Police were injured by the attack that could not be described other than terrorism. Amongst the injured, the Avatar was also not spared as she was caught off guard and was attacked by surprise.
Thankfully an airbender from the Air Temple Island was there to save the day. It was a new member of the Airbending community, the first ever airbender outside of Avatar Aang's lineage.
He was with Councilman Tenzin, who was confirmed to be his mentor to spectate the fight of the Avatar in her Pro-bending fight.
Alongside Councilman Tenzin, they defeated the Equalist who organized the attack and defeated Amon.
But Councilman Tenzin states that he was not the one who defeated Amon and his elites but Jiran.
"No, I was not the one who defeated him but Jiran. He did all the work while I just fought off the underlings." -Councilman Tenzin.
Amon was arrested by the Metalbending Police Force alongside with other fifty two accomplices.
"Amon and his men will be put on court for trial against the people and the Avatar, rest assured he will be put in justice!" - Lin Beifong, Chief Police of Metalbending Police Force.
When asked about the airbender Lin Beifong stated,
"The people of Republic City can now sleep in peace all because of Jiran. We are eternally grateful to him and hope that he will continue his selfless act, just like how Air Nomads do."
So in conclusion, the people of Republic City can now rest. Republic City is now safe all thanks to Jiran.

Unraveling the Mystery Behind the Hero of Republic City
By Jinko of Centro Republic Press
The recent events in Republic City have left citizens and reporters alike buzzing with speculation over the true identity of the enigmatic hero known as Jiran. Amidst the chaos surrounding the arrest of Amon, the leader of the Equalists, Jiran's presence has captivated the public's attention and raised questions about his origins and abilities.
Jiran, the Hero of the City, emerged seemingly out of nowhere, performing remarkable airbending skills that were demonstrated by his contribution in defeating Amon the Leader of the Equalist and his accomplices. His sudden appearance has sparked rumors and theories about his background, with some suggesting that he may be connected to the long-lost lineage of airbenders or even be the illegitimate son of Avatar Aang himself.
However, as the people clamor for answers, the truth behind Jiran's identity remains shrouded in mystery. While he has confirmed his status as an airbender, he has remained tight-lipped about his past, leaving room for speculation and intrigue.
One hot spot theory gaining approval among the press is that Jiran may indeed be Avatar Aang's illegitimate son. This speculation is fueled by his remarkable airbending abilities and the timing of his appearance, Jiran's close relationship with Councilman Tenzin, the son of Aang, has only added fuel to the speculation.
However, another possibility cannot be ignored: that Jiran may be a descendant of the Air Nomads who escaped the devastating genocide perpetrated by the Fire Nation. While it is widely believed that all airbenders perished in the genocide, the discovery of Jiran challenges this assumption and raises questions about the fate of the Air Nomads.
Yet, amidst the speculation and intrigue surrounding Jiran's identity, one thing remains certain: his heroic actions have earned him the admiration and gratitude of the citizens of Republic City. Whether he is the long-lost descendant of the Air Nomads or the secret offspring of Avatar Aang, Jiran's bravery and selflessness in the face of danger have cemented his place as a symbol of hope and resilience in a city plagued by turmoil.
As the public eagerly awaits further revelations about Jiran's past and his connection to the world of bending, one thing is clear: the mystery surrounding this enigmatic hero only adds to his allure and mystique. Whether he is a product of destiny or a mere mortal with extraordinary abilities, Jiran's story is sure to captivate the imagination of Republic City for years to come.
