Tarrlok, Honored by Republic City anonymous July 8 2012, 06:22:54 UTC
Noatak shields Tarrlok from the explosion with waterbending. Noatak dies, Tarrlok is severely injured but survives.

Of course people come to investigate the explosion. Finding Amon's body and their councilman mangled and half-drowned, they connect the dots and assume he must have been the one to kill Amon.

A hero. Republic City's savior, just like he wanted.

Tarrlok is brought back for intensive healing, showered with praises, treated like a martyr for "sacrificing his bending" and risking his life to stop Amon from escaping.

I just want to see how he deals with this.

A United Forces ship drawn by the explosion found him, floating unconscious and surrounded by chunks of burning wood. Two of the ship's benders pulled and shaped the water around him, gently lifting him over the rail and onto the deck. The sight of his injuries close-up drew a frown from their medic, but she quickly got to work coating and soothing the intense burns that swept up his right side and arm ( ... )

Tarrlok awoke to memories of unbearable heat and choking water; it was a moment before he realized he was lying in bed, indoors. The cleanliness and spartan decorations in the small room around him said hospital. As he was processing this, he became conscious of pulsing pains along his right side. He tilted his head and saw white bandages covering…well, everything. His right eye seemed to be covered as well, but he found nothing there when he touched his face. The skin felt rough and raw, and Tarrlok closed his left eye experimentally. Nothing, but a vague sense of light ( ... )

Sedna spoke quietly to someone in the hall. Tenzin stepped around the door, followed by the Avatar. The orderly must not have recognized her, Tarrlok thought, or he would have announced such an illustrious guest ( ... )

A/N This is turning into a novel, somebody stop meeee.Supplied with the newspaper, Tarrlok was able to confirm Tenzin’s story. There, in black-and-white, he was a tragic hero who sacrificed everything to take on his villainous brother alone. The article included his official portrait, along with a blurred photograph of the masked Amon, taken the night he'd attacked the pro-bending arena ( ... )

He cut through a quiet side street dusted with snow. Unbidden, his memory offered up another pair of hands, strong, gripping his neck and pressing into his forehead.

Noatak had apologized when he came to free Tarrlok. I'm sorry for what I had to do to you. They both knew what he meant by had to. Tarrlok had been using bloodbending when Amon forced him to the floor. He'd reveled in the power over his foes. He'd used it on the Avatar when she threatened his control of Republic City.

Noatak, still protecting his little brother from their old man’s legacy. Tarrlok hadn't had the heart to ask if he realized how close Amon had come to achieving Yakone's goals. He replied simply, Our father set us on this path.

Fate caused us to collide.The attack came from Tarrlok's right, and his faded sight in that eye meant he was caught largely unaware. The scuff of a foot on pavement alerted him a moment before he received an extraordinarily painful shock and doubled over, stumbling as he was pulled into the alley between two darkened shops. His ( ... )
