The sounds of men and women yelling could be heard in the bazaars, trying to make visitors buy their products whether they actually worked or not, mostly not, the smell of different foods wafted around the streets leaving people thirsting for the sweet or salty delights expect one cloaked figure who ignored the scents, they seemed to walk with a staff that looked pretty similar to an air nomad glider, but what really caught people's attention was the adult mongoose lizard walking by them, constantly sniffing around at the wonderful fragrances, the figure looked back at the lizard and chuckled while petting it

???: don't worry Wù, we'll get some grub

The figure walked the lizard to a nearby stand and pulled out a few yuans

???: ma'am, how much would a pound of meat?

The lady at the stand raised a brow at the young voice

Stand lady: aren't you a bit young to be on your own

???: i assure you ma'am, i am more than-

A screech could be heard from the lizard as the figure turned, he saw multiple sandbenders harassing his pet to which Wù didn't like as he screamed at them, threatening to eat them whole, the figure only pat his own leg as the large animal immediately walked to him and sat beside him

???: may i ask why you're harassing Wù?

Sandbender: Why wouldn't we! That there is a mongoose lizard, pretty hard to find nowadays due to them, y'know, being extinct

???: i understand that, so why do you think you can hurt him if his people are extinct

Sandbender: people? He's a lizard, not a person

???: he has a name doesn't he, therfore he's his own person

The young man rubbed Wù's head who seemed to enjoy it

Sandbender: look, we'll buy him from you, how much are ya' willing to sell him for?

???: he's not for sale

Sandbender: alright, how about 100 yuan

The surrounding people heard the large price and peeked over at the loud price, some wondering how much this Sandbender must have had

???: sorry, still no

Sandbender: fine fine, you run a hard bargain 200 yu-

The young man suddenly skated across the sand and sweeped him from his legs and went to strike the now laid sandbender with his staff in the jugular, just stopping a few centimeters away, this action caused his hood to fall off revealing our favorite boy with his long hair in a bun and his green eyes shining brightly, his body much more fit

Yin: i said he's not for sail, please just accept it and back off or else

Suddenly a spike of sand shot out and stopped just a single centimeter away from yin's neck

Multiple other Sandbenders surrounded yin as they mocked him

SB2: you ain't all that kid, i recommend just taking the money and running off to mommy

SB: y-yeah, to mommy

He looked down at the Sandbender he had on the ground and glared at him before raising his staff and backing away
