Despite his cons, Ariq is willing and dedicated to protect the weak and defenseless. He works best with his twin, Aiyana, and his very protective of her, though he'll never voice it.

History:  Tika was a woman who travelled from the Earth Republic after getting a transfer for her Police Department to the Yu Dao Police Department to help with the drug war. Zhi Fong was a native Yu Dao Settler who grew up with farmer parents. When he was old enough, he joined the Police Department. The two were partners for a good number of years until one of their co-workers found them fraternizing on the job. They were separated as partners, but kept their relationship intact. Within a year, they were living together, and within the next half a year, they were married. The two were taking it slow, so when Tika got pregnant at 24, they also agreed to never have children after this. However, having children became double the trouble they had predicted.

Ariq was born first. A healthy young boy who was born with very very light blonde hair, taking after his dad in looks. Aiyana, just a few minutes after Ariq, was practically identical to him, except for having her mother’s eyes. The two were raised with both their parents being cops. As a result of working on their father’s farm when they were old enough, they were taught to be kind and hardworking and were given a sense of responsibility. Ariq, unlike Aiyana, had shown early signs of bending when he saw a rabaroo get stuck between rocks. Feeling bad for the poor fellow, he had attempted to move one of the rocks. It being too heavy, he had stepped back in irritation and watched in amazement as it raised up on it’s own. Aiyana had come along fast enough to see this when he yelled for her, and, out of excitement, ran inside to tell their parents. Unfortunately, having tried her best, Aiyana never showed any signs of bending. She had given by the time the twins had turned ten.

By the time the children were old enough to work, Ariq and Aiyana already knew what their calling was; helping people. Just like their parents. So, they joined the police department at the age 17. They started off slowly at first, being confined to the desk. It took a while for them to stop fucking around long enough to earn a promotion and get their first case as partners.

The two did well as partners. The two being best friends helped quite a bit, too. Aiyana was the one who always looked for trouble. This is why she was taken one night, out of the bad part of town, by a small gang. Her parents were freaking out, and her brother even more. They sent numbers against the gang, none able to find any of the gang members. Meanwhile, Aiyana had been systematically abused, raped, and tortured by the gang. It was months before she had actually found the strength to fight back, and even longer to actually escape from the men. The first thing she did was go home. Clean herself up. Sleep. Get herself together. Then she decided to take action. She had quit the police force, having already lost all faith in them when they failed to rescue her. She vowed to find the men responsible for this herself. So she set out, being much more careful than before.

Unfortunately, she was not careful enough. The gang leader had learned of her endeavors. He wasn’t interested in getting her back, but rather would send a message to her. They then proceeded to come to her house. They burnt down everything in sight, and killed her parents in cold blood. She was at least lucky that Ariq was working. Together, The two got through The family deaths.

It was weeks until the twins had proper jobs again and were able to find an apartment and make ends meet. Aiyana had quit the police force and started working at the local blacksmithing facility, where while tracking down some of the gang members in her spare time with her brother, she continued making new weapons for both of them and trying them out as much as she could. She also sold all of the things she made for profit. The two had constantly went undercover in the gang, planning on getting close and taking them out. They did pretty well the first few months, and within half a year the gang was pretty much reduced to rubble. That is also when they were found out.

Once this happened the twins were confronted, and as much as a battle that it was, the twins ended up prevailing. This left the Moon Dragon in complete disarray; What was left of the gang had no leadership. The twins took charge, sort of. They assigned a friend of theirs as the leader of the gang, and kept a close eye on them. Unless something illegal and dangerous was going on, they did not interfere, as part of an agreement.

The twins stayed in their positions. As they were close enough to Republic City anyways, Aiyana and Ariq had applied for citizenship so that Aiyana could buy a place there and set up shop as a Private Investigator.
