Yu Dao Resistance

"neutral"

- Defend yourselves, Yu Dao Resistance! Defend our home!

The Yu Dao Resistance was a small fighting force assembled by Kori Morishita to prevent the removal of the Fire Nation colonials from the city of Yu Dao. The Resistance included both Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation citizens.

History
The Yu Dao Resistance was founded one year after the end of the Hundred Year War in the city of Yu Dao, when the Harmony Restoration Movement threatened to tear the city apart by forcing the original Fire Nation colonials who by now had their entire lives in the city, to return to the Fire Nation mainland. Kori Morishita, the leader of the group and a descendant of both Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation, spent many hours training with her five cousins, one girl and four boys, together making up the resistance.

Before the arrival of the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation armies, the resistance has a run in with Smellerbee and the other protesters. When the debate among the two groups got heated, one of the protester's earthbenders opened fire on the resistance, an action that was met with an immediate retaliation. The fight was cut short, however, when Avatar Aang used his airbending to separate the two groups again. During the Battle for Yu Dao, the resistance aided the Fire Nation army in the protection of the city.

Training
The Yu Dao Resistance is made of of Kori and her five cousins, two of which are firebenders, whereas the others are earthbenders. Together, the six trained and prepared to fend of their city against any possible attack by practicing on hay dolls. Under Kori's command, the earthbenders had to create a barrier for them all to hide after, before propelling the two firebenders and Kori herself in the air, so they could attack from above, while the three remaining earthbenders on the ground launched several rocks at any possible enemy.
