When they were first brought into the Republic City Prison he and Bolin were celled together. They didn't even last a full twenty four hours before some Equalist easily broke in and took them to their own holding cells. That's when they were separated. He fought at first to try and get free or at least help his brother, but it never worked. No one visited him for over a day, Mako would wake up and there would be small amounts of food and water for him; he would always wonder if Bolin was getting the same thing.

Amon finally revealed himself and threatened him and his brother. Amon threatened to torture him in the worst possible way. Mako never imagined what actually happened. How could he?

Two days after Amon's threat and Mako trying to attack him, Mako was visited again by Amon who simply told him his suffering would begin before blocking his chi points and bounding him to the wall with a black cloth silencing him. Mako but on a brave face and acted like he wasn't scared but Amon snapped his fingers and five Equalist came in dragging a blindfolded Bolin. Bolin looked thinner and had a few bruises and burns from what Mako assumed were an Equalist glove.

Amon strode over towards Bolin and began taking off his clothes while Bolin attempted to struggle against him. Amon completely stripped Bolin and strode back over to Mako and stood above him while he gave his men permission to use Bolin. While Mako watch the whole thing. Bolin tried to fight him off and shouted and screamed for Mako's help and he didn't even know Mako was there watching this all happen. Amon remained silent and just watched between Mako and Bolin the whole time. Mako tried to close his eyes at one point, to try and block it all out, the sight, the smell of each men and the seat, the noises the men were making and the sounds Bolin was making but Amon snapped and told him not to close his eyes. Each of the men stepped back and Bolin was shocked with a glove for a full minute. Mako never closed his eyes again.

Seven times. Bolin was a virgin and he had his virginity taken away from him by five men who raped him seven times. They forced their way inside of him and his mouth. By the end of it all both brother's were crying, maybe for the same reason maybe for different ones.

At the end of it Amon walked over and ripped off Bolin's blindfold. Bolin's green eyes were red rimmed and they looked so dull but when they landed on Mako they gained some life and then Mako could see all the shame and sadness in Bolin's face as he realized Mako had seen the whole thing.

Amon dismissed his men and then untied Mako. Mako felt the flames heat in his hand before Amon asked if he would rather fail to attack him or help his brother. Mako immediately stopped and went to his brother's side. Amon told him to enjoy the time with his brother while he could and left.

Bolin cried, apologizing to Mako! Mako just held him and cried with him, he let himself cry because he failed to keep his brother safe and they were all each other had. It all ended too soon when Amon came back in with chi blockers who hit him and Bolin and tore Bolin away from Mako to drag him back to his own cell. Mako screamed and against the chi blockers attack Mako roared with rage and fire flew from his mouth. The chi blockers watched with shock yet Amon watched in amazement. When it was done Mako was chained to the ground, panting, and pained both internally and externally.

They've been bringing Bolin in frequently and doing similar if not the same things to him while making Mako watch, no blindfolds or gags. Mako screams until his throat is sore and so does Bolin; they both watch each other during their torture, it's not just one or another one of their sufferings it's both, they share it.

The only thing is…they never touch Mako, only Bolin. They don't even tease him like they do to torture Bolin, to build the fear in him. Every time Mako tries to touch or hurt one of them they inflict it tenfold on Bolin. Mako once barely managed to land a punch on one of their ankles and bruised it and in return they broke Bolin's in front of Mako.

Mako doesn't fight now and neither does Bolin. Neither of them will give them the pleasure of screaming. They remain silent and Mako tries to get Bolin to look at him for the few moments they have together but Bolin is still too ashamed to look at him.

Mako's lost track of time; he can barely remember what Asami's voice sounds like; he's not sure if Korra is safe or even knows where they are. During one of the first few times they were allowed to be together Bolin asked him if he thought Pabu was alright. Mako assured him Korra was taking care of him as well as the air children. Bolin took it as fact.

They hate it here yet Mako can't find an escape route to save them both. He's had the chance to escape on his own; they test him to see if he'll leave Bolin. He never does.

Bolin's his brother and no matter what Mako will protect him. He will stand beside him. He will save them. Even if he's already failed…he'll redeem himself. He's going to get them out of this hellhole.

HoKay so...
