I OWN NOTHING; I DO NOT OWN THE LEGEND OF KORRA.

'Saving The Unwanted'

. . .

It's now been three months since the defeat of Amon and his Equalist. Republic City and the world are now in peace and are living in harmony.

The sky is a bright blue with spots of white clouds. The sun is high in the sky shining down at the city. It is now just another normal day; the sun is out and is keeping the temperature nice and warm.

The sun reflects on the ocean making the ocean sparkle and look beautiful. A small breeze passes through the city every now and then to make it not that hot out.

People walk up and down the streets and cars pass by. Everyone minds their own businesses and they just focus on their own lives. The shopkeepers are opening their shops and making sales; smiling at the people who pass their shops.

Kids are playing in the park and enjoying their summer. The benders and non-benders are getting along and everything seems to be back to normal.

Mako and Korra are holding hands walking down the streets of Republic City. They are enjoying the nice day and just spending time together.

Air Temple Island was getting to noisy so Mako asked Korra to go on a walk with him and she happily did so. Bolin and General Iroh have been fighting over Asami for a few weeks now and the girl can't make up her mind.

Anyways, now Korra and her loving boyfriend, Mako, are walking through the park hand in hand.

"It's so nice out today." Korra says quietly as she leans her head on Mako's shoulder as they continue to walk.

"Mhm . . . it is. This was the weather Bolin and I always prayed for when we were living on the streets as kids. Only rarely though we would get it . . . it always snowed or was raining." Mako says even quieter and ends it with a sigh.

Korra pouts and looks up at Mako. She sees his amber eyes getting watery; she knows that it's hard for him to talk about his childhood.

"Mako . . ." Korra begins, "are you alright?"

Mako instantly clears his throat and nods, "Of course. Why would you ask?"

Korra rolls his deep ocean blue eyes, "Because I could see your eyes getting watery. It's okay . . . you could talk to me about it. You don't have to act tough or pretend it doesn't bother you in front of me."

Mako shakes his head, "I'm fine, really. Don't worry."

Korra gives him a look and he chuckles, "What? Korra . . . I'm fine, really. Yeah, I didn't really enjoy my childhood but it's better now. Bolin and I are much better now."

Korra nods slowly, "Okay, but like I said . . . you could talk to me."

Mako smiles at his concerned girlfriend and he kisses the top of her head, "I know and thank you for that."

They continue to walk until they hear someone yell.

Korra and Mako share a confused and worry look and then they start to run towards the yelling.

After a few minutes of searching for the person who screamed, they finally find it. The thing is, it wasn't just one person screaming now, it was two people.

"No! You can't do this! Let us go! Let go of us!" A young boy yells at an older woman as two large guards hold his arms and two other large guards holds a girl's –next to the boy- arms.

The old woman shakes her head and is trying to shut the kids up, "Be quiet, the both of you! You will do as you're told!"

Then, before anyone could say or yell anything else, they all freeze when a new angry, stern voice approaches them.

"What's going on over here? Why are you hurting these kids?!" Korra yells with her hands on her hips. Mako is standing behind her, keeping his distance. He knows when Korra's mad to stay away.

The old woman takes a step towards Korra and raises her eyebrows, "And just who do you think you are?"

Korra eyes the woman and then a smirk appears on her face, "I think I'm the Avatar."

The kids gasp but the old woman doesn't show any sign of caring, "And? Listen, Avatar, I don't have time for whatever it is you want. I have a business to run so LEAVE."

Korra's eyebrows go up and her face starts to go red because of all the anger she is feeling towards this woman, "YOU listen HERE Ms. whatever your name is! I'm the Avatar and I am demanding for you to tell me what you are doing to these kids!"

Mako sees that Korra is starting to lose all her self-control so he walks next to her and puts his hand on her shoulder, "Listen, ma'am . . . just answer the question . . . what's going on here?"

The old woman rolls her deep violet eyes, "First, the name is Lee and second if you must know, these two kids are street rats. They're homeless so we're taking them to my orphanage. Then from there, we will send the girl to the Fire Nation and the boy to the Water Tribe; maybe someone there would want them."

This makes Mako think back to when him and Bolin were on the streets . . . they were homeless and when someone tried to put them in an orphanage they would escape and run away and hide.

Korra's face hardens and she shakes her head, "Are they related?"

Lee faces the kids and the boy nods. Korra then stamps her foot hard on the ground, "Then no! You can't just separate two kids like that! That's all they have left of each other!"

Lee rolls her eyes and turns to the guards, "Bring these two troublemakers into the house. Then, teach them 'a lesson'. Show them what happens when they steal food from shops."

The guards smirk at their boss and crack their knuckles, "It will be our pleasure." One of the guards says.

The boy starts to fight back and he then faces the Avatar with tears in his eyes, "P- please, Avatar! Don't let them take us in there! They'll kill us! They- they also work for the Triple Threat Triad! They'll kill us! Please, help!"

Korra's eyes become watery and then she has had enough, "Let. Them. Go!"

Korra earthbends the guards to the wall, knocking them out –that's how hard she threw them against the wall- and then she jumps in front of the kids, ready to defend them and protect them.

Mako stands behind the kids to make sure no guards come from behind and try to take them.

Lee shakes her head, "What do you think you're doing?!"

Korra eyes the woman, "Protecting innocent children. Now, leave the kids alone."

Lee smirks, "What do you plan on doing? Adopting them? You know what, the kids could leave for now. Let them starve on the streets for all I care. But, I warn you . . . Avatar, I find these kids stealing or on the streets again . . . I'll take care of them myself. Understood?"

Before Korra could respond, the woman walks into the house and slams the door shut.

Korra sighs then turns around and faces the kids. The boy looks around eleven and the girl looks about nine . . . ten the oldest.

The girl has short light brown hair and big ice blue eyes. She is wearing a red ripped, worn out shirt and baggy black pants. No shoes. The boy has dark jet black hair and has deep forest green eyes. He is wearing a torn, worn out white shirt with dirt all over it and tight black pants. Again, no shoes.

Korra looks at Mako then at the kids, "What are your names?"

The boy speaks, "Thank you so much, Avatar Korra." The boy turns around to face Mako, "And thank you, Mako."

Mako looks at him confused, "How do you know my name?"

The boy gives him a small smile, "Please don't be mad but my sister and I always sneak into the probending building to watch the probending matches. We love to watch them; they're so interesting and entertaining. I wish I could enter. Anyways, you're our favorite team; the Fire Ferrets."

Mako smiles at the kids and his eyes light up, "R- really?"

The boy nods then faces Korra again, "To answer your question my name is Haku and my sister's name is Rei."

Korra smiles and bends down so she's eye level to the kids, "You guys don't have a home?"

The boy shakes his head. His sister cuddles closer to her brother and looks down. You could see the tears streaming down her face and she stares at the ground.

"No . . . my father left when I was a baby and my mother just disappeared one night. Neighbors and friends say that she ran away with my father." The boy sadly answers; tears forming in his eyes.

Korra looks down then at Mako. Her eyes are begging him to do to something but he shakes his head. Korra eyes him then smiles at the kids, "Hey . . . would you guys like to live with Mako and me?"

Mako's mouth drops open and so does the kids. For the first time, the girl speaks, "Yes please! Thank you, Avatar Korra! We would be forever grateful!"

Korra chuckles and shakes her head, "Call me Korra and no worries. I would hate it for you guys to go back living on the streets. Hey, stay here for a minute while I talk to Mako . . . okay?"

The kids nod and Korra and Mako walk a few feet away so the kids don't hear their conversation.

"No! Korra no, we can't afford to feed two kids. We can't afford to buy them clothes, feed them, care for them . . . we can't do it!" Mako starts to yell at his girlfriend.

Korra shakes her head, "Mako, we have a home . . . they would live on Air Temple Island with us. They would get to play with the airbending children and Tenzin and Pema would help us if we needed it!"

Mako shakes his head and stares into her pleading blue eyes, "No . . . Korra no, we can't take care of two kids. We're too young, Korra!"

Korra looks away, her eyes becoming watery, "If you had the chance when you were a kid to have a place to live . . . wouldn't you take it? You know how it is on the streets . . . you saw how Bolin lived on the streets and didn't you want him to have a better childhood? Didn't you wish you could have a place to live? That someone would care for you and Bolin?"

Mako stays silent and he looks away, remembering the times he had on the horrible, scary streets.

"Mako . . ." Korra begins and places her hands on Mako's shoulders, "they're children; they won't survive on the streets. You said days like today don't happen a lot. They will be on the streets looking for shelter while it's raining, thundering, lightening or snowing. Please . . . please let's save two kids from these awful streets."

Mako and Korra look at the kids then they face each other. Korra tries to hold in the tears as she continues, "Look how skinny they are. They won't survive. It looks like they haven't eaten in days and they have dirt all over them. They have bruises and cuts and dried blood on them . . . we could prevent this from happening to two young kids."

Mako sighs and nods slowly, "Okay . . . alright, let's do this."

Korra smiles and hugs Mako tightly, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love you!" Korra gives Mako and kiss and continues to smile widely.

"What do you think they're talking about?" Rei asks her brother as they watch the Avatar and her boyfriend talk a few feet away from them.

Haku shrugs his shoulders, "I don't know. Maybe we should leave . . . before they come back."

Rei shakes her head and snaps, "And go back on the streets? No! They will give us a loving home!"

Haku looks at his sister in the eyes, he has a cold expression on his face, "How could we trust them?! The last person we trusted were the Triple Threat Triad and they almost killed us if we hadn't escaped!"

Rei's eyes begin to get watery but she refuses to let them fall, "She's the Avatar! She wouldn't hurt us and you saw how she saved us from that old woman, from those guards! Who knows, maybe she could even find mom and dad!"

Haku throws his hands in the air and starts to yell at his younger sister without realizing it, "Mom and dad don't care about us! They left us and they left making us live on the streets! They don't want us so there is no point of looking for someone who doesn't want us! We're supposed to hate them!"

Rei is now in tears and Korra and Mako heard what Haku said. Korra whips the tears off her face and bends down to Haku so she's eye level with him, ". . Haku . . . what they did was wrong but hating them isn't going to do any good. You know, it's okay to miss them."

Haku shakes his head, "How am I supposed to miss them and love them if they left us without caring what would happen to us?"

Korra bites her lip and looks at him, "It's hard . . . I know it is but you can't help how you feel."

Mako now bends down so he's eye level to the two kids, "My parents died and I blamed them at first. Doesn't that make sense? My parents were murdered and I blamed them. I hated them for leaving my brother and I on the streets and leaving us to fend for ourselves."

Haku doesn't even say anything; he just jumps into Mako's arms and hugs him tightly. Mako, at first, doesn't do anything because he's shocked but then he smiles and returns the embrace.

Haku cries into Mako's arms for a few minutes while Korra is hugging and comforting Rei.

After another few minutes go by, they all finally pull apart and Korra smiles at the two kids, "Hey, are you either of you two benders?"

They both nod and Korra nods slowly, "Okay, I got this. Rei . . . you're a waterbender."

"How do you know? Rei questions with a small smile on her face and her neck crooked.

"Your personality. Your personality shows and expresses that you're a waterbender." Korra says with a smile and her blue eyes wide.

Mako chuckles and then points to Haku, "And what about him?"

Korra rubs her chin and thinks, "Well . . . you're protective like a firebender but your also determined and focused like a earthbender."

"I'm a-" Haku begins to say but Korra shakes her head and cuts him off, "No! I want to guess. I got this!"

They all laugh and Korra continues to rub her chin, "Hmm . . . okay you could only be three elements, I got this."

Haku chuckles, "I'll give you a hint, I'm not an airbender or a waterbender."

Korra nods and smirks, "See, I got this! I only have to guess between being a firebender and an earthbender!"

They all laugh and roll their eyes. Mako claps his hands together and smiles, "So, who wants ice cream?"

Haku and Rei both raise their hands and jump up and down while yelling in unison, "Me! Me!"

Mako chuckles and wraps one arm around Korra's waist, "Then let's go!"

They all begin to walk as Korra's eyebrows are knit together, "What are you?! What, are you both?! Oh my spirits are you another Avatar that I should know about?!"

They all laugh and Haku sighs, "I'm an earthbender, Korra."

"I knew that! I had a feeling!" Korra yells out in a defense tone.

They all laugh and roll their eyes. "Sure you did, Korra." Mako says with a smile as he places a kiss on her temple.

Korra folds her arms across her chest and pouts, "What? I did."

The four of them were all lined up next to each other; all walking down the hill and towards a small ice cream shop.

Rei is on the end, then Mako is holding her hand walking next to her, then Korra is holding Mako's hand walking next to him and then Haku is on the other end holding Korra's hand and walking next to her.

It might take some time and getting use to but they are all a family. They all love each other if they want to admit it or not and they are a new family. Korra and Mako know that they would protect these two kids with their lives and they will love them forever.

This is their family and this is their new lives.
