Multiple herb dealers meet on a sunny afternoon in Ural. A tall and strong man named Gomesho steps forward. The man has long curly dark brown hair. Gomesho has a green left eye and a gold right one.
Gomesho crosses his arms and exhales, "Ural is a ripe city. For now it is fairly innocent, this is the best chance for me to become a street legend." Gomesho's right hand man, Edvan stands with him.
Edvan has brown-greenish eyes, a yellow skin hue, and he stands at 5'7 feet tall. Edvan: "A group of heroes took down Vestin's operation. They gather behind the one called Rosh. He served in Commander Macai's military unit."
Gomesho responds, "I have heard about that man. I am not concerned. He will soon find that he is no match for my abilities."
Rosh, Holku, and Lika chat at Lika's home. The group is playing Houshoden in the living room. It is a game of cards that involves the use of animals. Rosh conceals a deck of cards, "You have no idea what you're dealing with."
Holku taunts, "Lay it down."
Rosh: "Are you ready for this?"
Holku: "Just lay it down already."
Rosh: "Are you really ready?"
Holku: "Do it." Rosh slams a lion-bear card on a wooden table. This is the third most powerful card in the deck.
Holku drops a rhino-tiger, the second most useful card. Holku: "All that talk for nothing." Lika drops a dragon card, the strongest card in Houshoden.
Lika comments, "The silent strikers are the deadliest."
Rosh: "It actually does not make a difference. Talking merely makes the show more entertaining."
Holku: "I'm gonna disagree Rosh. When you do all that talking, it leaves less space for your brain to think and plan its next move."
Rosh: "Well, aren't you just the brighest being in the universe."
Holku: "I didn't say all of that, you did."
Rosh: "Sounds like I'm beginning to rub off on you."
Holku: "That is what you want to believe."
Lika: "I'm the one that won the game yet you two are constantly bickering."
Rosh: "I don't know why I picked him."
Holku: "Hey, let's not do that. You sought ME out. So clearly there was something you saw that sold you."
Rosh: "I don't know what I saw."
Lika shifts the subject, "Did we discover anything about any major herb dealers in town?"
Rosh: "Vestin shared a name, some guy called Gomesho. Apparently he's the big bad man in town."
Holku: "How bad can he be?"
Rosh: "Hopefully not as bad as Haresh. That man was a dread to fight." A few days later, Rosh, Holku, and Lika look at a map in a dark planning room within the Fire Nation embassy.
Rosh points a ruler at the map, "Our enemies will have a main entrance here. This is where you (Holku) and Lika will strike. I will go around the back way. We will encircle the ring leader. Fire Nation back up will be on the way to cover any escape routes they try to take."
The next day three dirt men (a local term for criminals) guard the south entrance of a herb auction. One has a mace, another holds a machette, and a third is an earthbender. Lika and Holku arrive in their casual clothes.
Dirt man: "Are you here to buy something?"
Lika: "No but we are handing out free beatdowns."
Dirt man 2: "What are you yappin about girl?" Lika hurls a stone into the man's left eye and kicks a brick in the mace holder's gut. The bender flings several earth balls at Lika but Holku cuts them down one by one.
Lika clasps her hands and a giant earth hand rises from the ground before encapsulating the delinquent. Another two fighters emerge; one has two swords and the other is a massive man with a metal hammer.
Lika kicks several earth spheres at the large man but he knocks one sphere left and smashes a second one with his weapon. The third object hits him but doesn't stop the brute. The man with dual swords swings high with his left blade but Holku pivots back and parries.
The duelist hacks his left sword down at the teen's left side. Holku turns as he blocks and ducks under a right slash before twisting away from a double lunge. The big hammer user skips at Lika and swivels down his weapon at her. Lika hops right and rapidly pushes a stream of dirt in the man's face to obstruct his view.
The stout man runs after Lika anyway and horizontally glides his hammer at her. Lika flips left and fires a volley of rocks into the man's face. The fleshy man takes his first step backward and his face is left pink from the barrage. The earthbender pulls her arms forward and a pillar emerges from the ground before striking the man center mass at 30 miles an hour.
The hammer fighter is finally immobilized by the hit. The man with dual swords reverse slashes his left blade at Holku but the youthful duelist uses footwork to stay out of range from danger. Holku cuts low and gashes the man's right knee cap.
Rosh stands across the north entrance. He notices two sword users and one earthbender. Rosh kicks right and drops a swordman before catching the man's blade in the air and blocking a horizontal strike. Rosh low kick a fireball into the man's foot then flings the sword in the earthbender's chest.
Rosh steps forward again but two earthbenders roll after him. Rosh right kicks a blaze of flames into the man on the right. The bender on the left tosses a rectangular object at Rosh. The firebender zips over the object with a fire enhanced jump before pushing a tirade of orange and red fire into his opponent.
Rosh stumbles across the ground as he descends. Rosh sees another opponent and kicks a flame into the man's chest before he can mount a defense. The body rolls sideways against the concrete but Gomesho and Edvan arrive.
Gomesho signals, "Enemies are moving on the southern flank. Take some men and handle the intruders. I'll deal with this one." Edvan agrees without hesitation. Edvan signals for two sword users, two spear fighters, and an earthbender to accompany him.
Meanwhile Gomesho gawks at Rosh. Rosh: "So what's up man? You gotta problem with me? Well, I don't care. I had to check your little operation out and you failed the inspection."
Gomesho: "I see you like to talk, that will add meaning to when I silence you." {Music Starts [Demon Slayer: Inosuke Theme V2 | EPIC VERSION (Tanjiro & Inosuke vs Enmu)} Rosh down kicks a swirl of flames at the bender. Gomesho pulls out a battle hammer and slams it against the ground. A mound of earth meets the flames and the two cancel each other out.
Gomesho points his hammer at Rosh and directs several objects at him. Rosh spews a fountain of red and orange flames from his mouth which consume his obstacles. Gomesho swats his hammer side to side as he flings more objects at Rosh. The legendary firebender leaps right and hacks another object with a fire dagger.
Rosh runs and flips over another projectile before kicking a line of flames at Gomesho. The earthbender raises his hammer and a barrier meets the blast. Gomesho smiles, "You have yet to see the best of my abilities." The earthbender points his hammer and propels a barrage of objects at Rosh.
The firebender sprints left and uses a flash of flames to accelerate his run to 80 miles an hour. Gomesho yanks his hammer down and hurls big chucks of a building down at Rosh. The firebender skips left past one object that shakes the ground behind him. Rosh is forced to stop in his tracks to avoid another debris that lands right in front of him.
The firebender strongly punches a burst of fire through a third object that he blasts at sight. Gomesho launches himself toward Rosh like lightning with the shift of ground zooming him along. Gomesho hacks his weapon in a diagonal fashion at Rosh. The firebender springs backward as he nimbly avoids the strike.
Rosh jokes, "That all ya got?"
Gomesho replies, "Not remotely." Gomesho twirls his hammer at a blinding speed and uses orange and yellow flames to move it faster. Rosh gasps at the realization that he is facing a dual bender. Gomesho can control both earth and fire. The crime master points his hammer at Rosh and zaps a stream of flames at him.
Rosh jumps left and high past the ensuing boom. As he lands, Rosh nearly falls on his face. Gomesho pushes a durable item at Rosh. The firebender flings himself back then rolls before climbing on his feet. Gomesho pulls his hammer low and yanks several balls from the ground.
Rosh looks at his foe squarely and the multi-bender sets fire to each ball before hurling them at Rosh. Rosh enters a tight guard as he blocks two balls with his arms and kicks a third one out of the way. The firebending captain launches himself off the ground with a strong right kick then whizzes at his opponent like a rocket as his body is carried by heaping fire.
Rosh comes at Gomesho like he is going to punch him. The man aims his hammer directly at Rosh but lowers his right hand in an instant and kicks the hammer in the left direction before zipping at him again and hammering his left fist into Gomesho's nose. The dual bender flies backward through a wall (music stops).
Rosh: "And that's how we do it in Ural." Meanwhile, Edvan signals for his team to rush after Holku and Lika. Lika wastes no time in pushing a rectangular object into a swordsman and propelling a stone in a spear fighter's face. One of the earthbenders pushes a table-like object at her but Lika leaps over the item before yanking down a door at him.
The earthbender raises a barrier which knocks the door over. As this is happening Holku blocks a sword cut from a duelist before twisting the weapon out of the man's hand and dropping him with a high kick. A spear combatant presses his weapon at Holku but the teen slides left.
The lance fighter waits before repositioning and lunging at Holku second time. The duelist swings upward and knocks the harpoon away from him before pressing forward and slashing the man's right thigh. The fighter stumbles left awkwardly before falling over himself.
Lika readjusts her focus and pushes two stones at Edvan. The earthbender ducks under the objects and pushes his right arm at her. Liquified earth glides at Lika at a rapid speed but she raises an earth barrier and swats it at him. Edvan tumbles past the debris before he gets back up and signals for his ally to flank her.
The other earthbender sinks into the ground and emerges directly behind the young earthbender. The dirt man yanks an earth arm at Lika barely stumbles away from it before pulling her left arm down to dissolve the arm. Lika turns and pushes two earth stones into Edvan which temporarily drops him.
The outlaw kicks three earth cubes at Lika. The female bender cartwheels away before turning and preparing another attack for her opponent. The criminal wastes no time in pushing a stone knife at her. Lika falls forward and allows herself to sink into the soil. The dirt man feels the ground as he prepares to anticipate any attack Lika can throw at him.
The young lady lunges from a few feet right and behind him. The man backkicks a brick at her but Lika raises her knees and blocks the brick before flipping behind him and reverse flinging a stone into the man's face. Her opponent passes out. Edvan gets up and punches two rocks at her.
Lika dives in the air and rotates her body while midair so that she performs a rising left kick. The kick summons a wood plank from the ground into the left side of Edvan's head, which puts him down for good. Lika high-fives Holku, "We did that."
Holku: "Indeed we did. Let's see if Rosh handled business."
Rosh spots them first, "Is that even a question? I'm just glad I didn't have to clean up your work."
Lika: "So we just took down a major crimelord. How should we celebrate?"
Rosh: "There's more, he could dual bend."
Holku: "No."
Rosh: "I'm not kidding."
Lika: "Which elements?"
Rosh: "Earth and fire..."
Holku: "Did it give him an advantage?"
Rosh: "He was more of an earthbender honestly. But it was cool while it lasted."
Holku: "I bet his followers thought they were serving some kind of crime messiah."
Rosh: "So much for that."
Lika: "Guys, how do we celebrate."
Rosh: "Let's have a toast at my place." Later that day they meet up and everyone has toast. Rosh: "This really is the BEST way to celebrate."
Holku: "Why am I not surprised that you literally made toast."
