I do not own The legend of korra. UUnfortunately.
name is Korra. Im the Avatar. I am 17 years old and a master of earth, water and fire ; currently on my way to Air temple island. I need to master Air. I sneeked onto a ship with my polar bear dog Naga. I cant wait till I get to Repubic City. My waterbending teacher, Master Katara, says thats where my destiny is. Where I must go. I need to find my own path as the Avatar. I can remember Katara telling me to stay out of trouble. Ill try.
All my life ive been locked up in a compound. No friends or a normal teenage life. But being the Avatar was all I ever wanted. I Iove to bend, listen to Probending, draw, fight, play : basketball, netball and rounders. Even football. Well, thats what I did in any spare time.
Im also very smart. I was home schooled. I hated every minute though. My teachers were horrible. Terribly boring. Can I even say I was home schooled? I dont count the Compound as my home. More like a prision. Im not sure on what the world thinks about the Avatar - apart from them obviously being a waterbender. Do they even know my gender? Well ill find out at Republic City.
"Unload the boat!" Well thats my cue.
I dashed out on Naga leaving the dock behind. I was taking in the incredible features of Republic City. Ive never seen anything like this before. Obviously if you've been locked up in a compound all your life. I could tell Naga was hungry, but I knew we couldnt get food for free. So I decided to swim. Hopefully they'll have some food for Naga on the Air Temple.
"Ready for a swim girl?" I asked. Naga barked but I heard a whine." Come on they'll be food on the island." Naga then jumped in the bay on the mention of food. I waterbended a water bubble around us so we wouldn't drown or get wet. Then, with a swift movement of my arms, we launched forward. Quickening our journey to Air Temple Island.
When we reached the Island I was truely amazed. Me along with Naga walked up to the building. All of a sudden there was a deafening blast of wind - coming from my left. With quick reflexes, I turned around, ready to attack, but was met by a bunch of children. They were riding on air spheres. Ive always wanted to do that. But I cant ecsactly airbend. At all. They stopped when they spotted me. They made their way over where me and Naga were standing.
One of the girls with two buns said : "Who are you? Where did you come from? Im ikki! Are you a waterbender? You look like one! How did you get here? Who's the big fluffy bear thing? Is it a Polar bear dog? I love Polar be-"
"Enough Ikki!" Shouted one child with a side bun. She clearly was the oldest. Im just glad she shut Ikki up. "Sorry bout that. Im Jinora. This is ikki-" she gestured to the annoying one in air acolyte clothing - "and thats Meelo." Meelo was easily the youngest of the three. He wasnt paying attention though. He was picking his nose. Disgusting.
"Oh hi Jinora, Ikki, Meelo. Im Korra. And this is Naga my Polar Bear dog. And yes I am a Waterbender. Im from the South Pole and im here to learn Airbending. Tenzin never showed up at the Compound... so I came here instead. Can I see Tenzin Please?" I asked impatiently. I dont like waiting. But if these are airbenders, they must know Tenzin.
" Daddy is at a Meeting with the Council. He'll be back soon tough. Hey wait. If you're a waterbender then why are you here to learn airbending? Unless... Oh my Spirits! You're the Avatar! " repiled energetic Ikki. Will she ever shut up? I think I know the answer to my own question.
" Yes im the Avatar. Do you know when Your dad will be back-" I knew they were related!-" and do you have any food for me and Naga?" I asked hopefully.
Jinora was the one to reply. Thank god. "Yes we do. Daddy will be back in approximately an hour. Come on Pema will give you something to eat. Come on follow me." Me and Naga followed Jinora and the other two children. We walked through big long hallways until we reached a room. Wow this place was huge!
"Hello dears- whos this? Hi im Pema". Pema shaked my hand while Jinora told her why im here, who I am and how I got here. Pema was calm until she noticed Naga in the door way. She screamed.
"Ahhhh! Get the beast out! Tenzin will be home soon, he doesnt need more stress, take it to the stables!". "Yes mom". Jinora replied. I tried to follow my best friend and new friend but Pema stopped me.
"You can talk to Tenzin soon. Come on. Thets get you and your pet-" "Naga" I interrupted. "Yes Naga, some food." I sat down at the table while Ikki and Meelo mimicted. Pema then rushed to the kitchen. Should she be running? Im not an idiot. I have noticed she's pregnant.
"Do you like fruit and vegetables?" Meelo asked. I nodded. "Good because we dont eat meat." Wow. I forgot about that. What about Naga? As though reading my thoughts Meelo continued. "Naga is an exception" well, hes quite observant. Well atleast hes stopped picking his nose.
Pema then came back into the dining room with a bowl full of fruit and leechie juice. Me, Ikki, And Meelo each took some fruit enthusiasticly. "Dont take too much darlings. Its for Korra. Jinora hi darling. Sorry I forgot, but take this meat to Naga quickly." As soon as Jinora was here she was then again gone.
"Soo Korra im sorry we never made it to the South Pole. There was too much commotion. " Pema stated.
"Thats ok. Im here now anyway. So what was all the comm-"
"Im back! That was a nightmare! So how are you Pem-" Tenzin then spotted me. "Korra! Is that you! What are you doing here?"
"Ohhh... hi Tenzin... hehe" I wasnt sure what do say but Pema filled in all the details. I heard Tenzin sigh a few times. I wonder how this is gonna turn out. Uggh! I never think things through!
" Ill except your training Korra. But on one condition. " I nodded understandingly to Tenzins clarification. "You will be Going to high school"
"What!" Everybody flinched at my outburst as me and Tenzin stood up. "Thats... thats.. amazing! Ive always wanted to fo to school! I cant wait! Wait. Why exactly am I going?"
Everyone had confused faces at my mini rant. Tenzin was still unsprisingly calm. " If you are going to bring balance tobthe world - as a fully realized Avatar - you must understand what goes on in it. I knkw you never knew what the outside world was like in the compound so... after you master airbending we'll announce your identity." That kinda made sense. I guess no one knew who the Avatar is after all.
"Alright Tenzin. When do we start airbending? When do I start school?" I asked as nicely as possible.
"Both. Tommarow. Now thets have the girls show you your already personalised room... while ill ring Republic City Highschool and the White Lotus guards. You will be a waterbender at school, judging on your origin... and the White Loyus will guard the Island. Ill see you at dinner girls... oh and Meelo help Pema in the Kitchen. Jinora and Ikki if you do as told you can then show Korra around the Island." Tenzin stated swiftly before going off to his office to do his calls.
Wow this is going better than I thought!
