Chen had half a mind to throw a knife between the shoulder blades of the woman as she left the room, but quickly dismissed the idea. That would only prove her point. Chen quickly stood up, adding a few notes to his notebook before putting it away. The equalist [i]did [/i]have a point, that is, if destroying a theater screen with a giant bolt of lightning didn't count as attacking. Still, it was a rather crafty plan that the woman had assembled. She had goaded the benders into attacking her, into making the first move of violence. She hadn't even given her name before the fighting started. He cursed the hastiness of the benders, but he couldn't help but understand why they did what they did. 

Speaking of which, he could figure out [i]why they did what they did![/i] The only problem he now faced was determining whether he should talk to the earth and water bender who had stood and fought or the Avatar. Well, that was a no brainer. The attack (or protest) was directed at the Avatar. Why not talk to him?

Chen walked over the the Avatar, trying to appear casual. He would rather not have the Avatar realize that he was nothing more than a journalist scrounging around for details. Instead, he decided to first play the slightly concerned citizen approach. He gave Kazuki slight grin as he walked towards him.

[color=bf00ff]"Not exactly how you expected your day to go, is it?"[/color] Chen said casually, [color=bf00ff]"Who was that woman anyway? More importantly, what are you going to do about it? It seems like she means business, and I doubt that's the last we'll see of her."[/color]
