Later on that day...

Lawan continued to wander down the street until he came across an elderly man along with who seemed to look like his grandson. The young firebender stood there watching as the old man was teaching his grandson how to play an instrument. The young boy was growing agitated by how difficult it was for him to catch on. The whole situation was starting to make Lawan remember his time as a child learning how to bend.

Elderly Man: You just gotta have paitiences son, that's all.

Boy: But grandpa this stuff is hard!

8 years prior.

Lawan: But grandfather do I have to?

Grandpa Bak: In order to become a Dragon Warrior you must practice your bending until it is perfect Lawan, just as your father before you and mines before me. This is the way of our people.

Lawan: Fine grandfather.

Lawan stood there alongside his grandfather on top of a large mountain on the countryside of the Fire Nation. Lawan's grandfather, Ong Bak-Lek, was grand master of the Order of the Dragons. The entire premise was to keep the ways of the Sun Warriors alive. They choose members whom seemed worthy enough to follow the same trials as those before to train with the original firebending masters Ran and Shaw. Once a bender has trained successfully with the dragons they were officially Dragon Masters.

Ong Bak was one of the lucky few to have actually held this title. Being a strong bender some said his strength was like that of Fire Lord Zuko. Some would even go as far as to call him a legend in his old age of 70. Lawan often looked up to grandfather seeing him as a better role model than his father, yet another Dragon Warrior. However, his father didn't travel the same prideful road as his father. Lawan's father, Ip Lek, traveled a much darker road. Ip was successful in his trials and trained with the Dragons just as his father, but Ip took this strength and teaching for evil. Ip was currupted and took to being a criminal, wanted in all four nations. He dealt with the likes of underworld crime bosses such as Happy Hogan himself.

Lawan stood there practicing his bending with the best of his abilities. He'd move both his arms into a resting position, placing both elbows against his sides then his forearm into a straight position both adjacent from each other. Finally parting both legs shoulder width apart. Ultimately putting him into the horse stance. After doing an assortment of movements Lawan brought up his right knee and charged out his left hand only for a small spark to shoot out from his knuckles. The young boy saw this with an annoyed face.

Lawan: ARGH! Grandfather i'll never be able to bend like you!

He folded his arms out of frustration and took more of his anger out on the dirt ground kicking it a bit.

Bak: To truly grasp the knowledge of fire bending Lawan, you must know that there is an eternal fire within ones self. Allow that fire to grow some a small spark to a great flame. Move as if you are the flame.

As Ong Bak spoke he demonstrated with his movements, bringing his right leg up and charging his left fist forwards allowing an immese flame to shoot from his fist that roared with every inch. Lawan witnessed this with amazment.

Bak: With the proper training you'll turn out to be a fine Dragon Warrior.

Current time

Lawan: Yeah, if only...

The young bender continued his walk down deeper into the city until he just so happened to catch a chase in session between a man and some woman.

Lawan: Hm...

Normally Lawan doesn't get into the business of those around him but he had nothing better to do and this seemed far more interesting than what he was about to do. He followed the pursuit as the woman pulled out a blade of her own and single handedly captured the man like it was light work. Lawan couldn't help but feel a bit impressed. Suddenly two masked men came and retrieved the poor captee. The woman seemed like she was in charge of the other two masked indiviuals but that was only an observation. However, once the two departed Lawan gave a bit of a smirk when the man started to walk by.

Lawan: That was some nice swordplay there lady.
