"Please mom, can I go," ten year old Korra asked her mother with big, begging, blue eyes.

Senna looked down at her daughter and then at her husband for some help on what to say. Tonraq just looked and shrugged his broad shoulders at her. She then let out an exhausted breath. "Fine, I guess you can go to Republic City with your father." Quickly after receiving the permission, Korra jumped in the air and hugged her mother. "But only if it's ok with Katara as well," Senna quickly added.

"Ok, I'll go ask her right now." Korra excitingly said as she let go of her mother and ran to get her coat at the door. "Come on Naga! We're going to see Master Katara!" Korra yelled out as she opened the door and then ran out with a Polar Bear-pup following.

Senna walks over to close the door her daughter left open and then looked over to her husband with angry eyes. Tonraq slightly jumped. "What?"

"I blame you," Senna simply said as she walked passed him toward their kitchen.

"Oh, come one honey. Korra told you she just wants to come along to go see Tenzin and his family." Tonraq tried his best to calm his wife down as he followed her. "Besides, I'll be with her so she'll be fine. I promise."

Senna sat in a nearby chair and sighed. "Can't I just be a mother and worry for once?" Tonraq laughed and left a kiss in his wife's messy hair.


Tonraq and the other men on his ship were busy loading up the following morning. As he took a break to take in his work he heard a small bark from behind him. Tonraq turned to see his daughter with a small backpack on her back and her friend right behind.

Tonraq laughed. "Korra, sweetie I told you Naga couldn't come. The ship's crowed enough as it is."

"I know," Korra said swiftly as she began to walk toward the ship with Naga closely behind her. "But you try telling her that. I already gave her the talk."

Tonraq watched his little girl climb up the small ramp and onto the boat, her best friend closely behind. He then sensed a presence behind him and turned to see his wife and his daughter's teacher standing side-by-side.

Tonraq walks up and hugs his wife caringly. "Please be safe and keep an eye on her," Senna whispered to him as she hugged him back.

Tonraq smiled. "I will," he simply said before he rested a soft kiss in her hair.
