Macai looks at the Restored Dynasty leader face to face as several crowd members flee the scene. Bishu slams his hands together and a shockwave of earth flows toward the young mastermind. Macai leaps in the air and fires two sizeable blocks of white fire at the elite earthbender. Bishu-Tae raises his hands, and a wall of objects emerges in front of the man.

The white flames explode on impact and destroy several objects. Smoke flows from the collusion and Macai lands a few feet left of Tae's position. The cult leader extends his right hand and spams several objects at Macai. The commander rolls right and extends his right hand, pumping a white brick of fire at Bishu-Tae. Bishu brings up his right knee and a column of earth emerges from the ground to take the shot. The column is blown in half and half of the column flies toward Bishu-Tae, but he smacks it aside.

As Macai and Bishu fight, Morris draws his long silver sword and prepares to rush him. On Macai's left, Kaveedo rushes with his battle hammer and two Earth Kingdom benders leap beside the young commander. The benders stretch their arms and fire several objects at the enforcer. Kaveedo spins his hammer in a circular motion as he knocks the projectiles away. Kaveedo stomps his right leg and a shockwave of sand blasts the bender on the right twelve feet back.

The remaining earthbender winces and Kaveedo slams his hammer against the ground. A second yet bigger shockwave of earth blasts the man away. Earthbender: "Aaaaaahhhhhhaaa!"

Macai glances left and Bishu-Tae taunts, "You're clearly outmatched BOOOOY."

Macai smirks, "Do you really think I relied on the local forces?" Rosh dashes directly left of Macai's position. Rosh has a light brown uniform with light green stripes. Rosh quickly extends his hands and fires a huge rod of red-orange fire at Kaveedo. Kaveedo extends his hammer and blocks Rosh's blast with it. Kaveedo grins at Rosh and starts laughing lightly.

Rosh raises an eyebrow then kicks a red-orange flame at Kaveedo's left shoulder. Kaveedo shifts his hammer left and blocks the flame. Kaveedo lunges forward and the large man shakes the ground as he takes off. He flies like a meteor toward the 31st captain with a spinning vertical attack. Rosh dives left as Kaveedo slams his hammer into the ground. The earth shakes from the great blow and a large crater is left in the ground that is three feet deep.

Kaveedo emerges and rips his hammer out of the ground. Chunks of dirt fly and the brute rotates his weapon. Rosh extends his and fires a shockwave of red-orange fire into Kaveedo. The mighty warrior is knocked down by the flames and rolls on his side but does not drop his hammer. Rosh: "You know what they say, the bigger they are, the harder they fall." Rosh prepares to blast the warrior with a finishing shot but Kaveedo emerges from the ground and charges at Rosh.

Kaveedo latches onto Rosh and pulls him up, "Raaahahahahahahahaa!!" Rosh clinches his teeth as Kaveedo tightens his grip and Rosh can feel his back popping.

Rosh grunts, "Aaahahahahaaaa!!" In a moment of sheer will, Rosh latches his hands onto Kaveedo's head. Kaveedo's eyes widen as Rosh enhances his palms with red-orange fire that burns Kaveedo's face. Kaveedo screams and collapses. Rosh falls over top of Kaveedo but quickly gets back on his feet to make sure Kaveedo is down. Kaveedo rises from the ashes with intent to kill and picks up his hammer.

Rosh extends his left hand and fires a rapid ball of red-orange fire into Kaveedo's face before he can attack. The ball explodes on impact and knocks Kaveedo out. Black burn scars and blood flows from Kaveedo's face as he lay on the ground. Meanwhile, Morris rushes in Macai's direction when two Earth Kingdom troopers move to intercept him. One is a swordsman, and the other is a bender.

The swordsman charges first, but Morris charges with his blade held low. As the two move near each other Morris rapidly swings diagonally and cuts his opponent down. The earthbender fires several small objects at Morris but the cult officer spins his sword rapidly as he knocks each of them away. The earthbender gasps then Morris flips behind the man and lunges his blade through the Earth Kingdom trooper's body.
