The Southern Water Tribe
Lin had never felt so alone. Amon had taken people's bending away and he had done the same to her and Korra. Of course, everyone was more concerned for Korra than her. She was The Avatar after all.
Naturally, everyone had panicked when they found Korra, but no one had even blinked in her direction. It was her own fault. They had all assumed she was fine and that Amon had failed to take her bending away but he hadn't.
She had never felt so alone and lost. Sitting on the Sky Bison. Heading towards the southern water tribe to see if Katara could heal Korra. Maybe she could console in Katara and see if she would heal her too. Kya always said she could always talk to Katara if she needed to.
KYA!
Spirits! Would she be at the southern water tribe? Would she still talk to her? Would Katara help her after she broke Kya's heart?
She hadn't seen Kya in years and the thought made her pull her knees up to her chest and curl in on herself. When she had said she was coming to the southern water tribe she hadn't thought Kya might be there. Probably with her family. Her Wife and Kids. The thought made her stomach churn and tears well in her eyes.
Why had she given Kya up? She could have had that too with the women she loved. She realised that all these years trying not to turn into her mother. Putting her career before her life had been a terrible mistake. Why couldn't she have both? She did have both, but she drove one away out of fear of being vulnerable.
Something off in the distance caught her eye. The southern water tribe had come into view and it wouldn't be long before they arrived.
What would she say if Kya was there? At Least she had something else to focus on other than Amon taking her bending away.
The last part of the journey dragged by and Lin's head was a whirlwind of never getting her bending back and how Kya would react to seeing her after all these years. Sure they had bumped into each other but Kya treat her like anyone else and they had never been alone together since she ended their arrangement.
When Oogi landed Lin had to force herself to her feet and off the beast. They had clearly been spotted because people waited for them to dismount. Lin made sure she was among the last to do so.
She had always thought the southern water tribe was beautiful. Since her first visit as a child. And she found it interesting how everyone looked similar. Blue eyes, dark hair and dark skin. The people that weren't from the southern water tribe stuck out and when those people had children it was amazing to see what traits they would inherit.
She had once thought her and Kya's children would be beautiful and longed to find out how they would have looked.
Her eyes landed on Kya at last. She was among the people who were around the avatar. She was still as beautiful as ever but their eyes never met.
That's when she noticed two girls heading toward her with an excitable look in their eyes. They both fit into the water tribe perfectly. Their hair was a beautiful brown colour. Just like Kya's used to be. Their skin was a few shades lighter than Kya's but their eye where an exact match sparkling with excitement like Kya's use to. They both looked like her too but they also had their unique differences and one was clearly younger.
"Wow, So you're Lin Beifong?" The Older one asked eagerly.
"Well of course she is Meena. Why would mam tell us any different?" The younger one looked at her sister, then went back to gawking at Lin. Meena opened her mouth to say something but another voice interrupted.
"Meena, Risa. Why are you bothering Lin after a long journey?" He said scowling at both of them in turn. Lin stood there unsure what to do as the girls reacted.
"Hey, where adults now we can talk to other people" they both said in unison.
"Should I shout of Ma?" He replied raising an eyebrow. Both girls squealed and scurried away without saying another word and Lin let out a sigh.
"Sorry about my sisters. They still act like kids" He said shaking his head "I'm Ajax. Nice to meet you finally. Ma has been telling us stories about you two for years" He beamed a smile at her.
He was one of those people that fit into the water tribe but didn't simultaneously. His skin was tanned but his hair was almost as black as Lin's used to be and his eyes the same pale green. He was tall, toned and handsome. Every woman's dream. She could see Kya in him but also someone else. Someone familiar.
"C'mon everyone is going inside. You should probably get some food and rest" He said softly to her as he started to follow the crowd.
She was lead to a house where she began to wash. Ajax had said the food would be ready in a few hours and that she would have enough time to wash and get some rest first. He had given her his room to clean up in. It was a nice room with its own bathroom but it wasn't big.
Lin found her thoughts wandering to Kya once again as she started to dress. She had gotten her family after all and she seemed happy. She had noticed some photos on the way is of Kya and a water tribe women. She assumed that women was their sire and she hoped she had been a good one. Regret started to fill her as she thought of how she could have had that. Maybe she still could but she only wanted Kya and she was married now.
A soft knock came at the door that made her jump she approached it with caution, expected one of Kya's girls or maybe someone else. Who, she saw standing in the hall took her breath away.
"Kya!" Lin said. She was shocked that Kya had approached her so soon. She was holding a bowl of water and smiling softly at Lin.
"I thought you might need healing" Kya stated.
She was just as Lin remembered her, apart from she was older. Her hair a beautiful silver colour and pulled in a sophisticated pony tail with two bangs left hanging loose on either side of her face. One was clearly a fringe as it was bigger than the other. Her blue eyes were still as gorgeous as Lin remembered them but some of the sparkle had faded from them and she looked tired. Probably due to raising three kids. Her face had been aged with time but she was still beautiful, Lin thought she was more beautiful now.
An elegant blue dress hugged her full body in all the right places and made her look the part of a mother with the bonus of having an amazing figure and of course a betrothal necklace was fitted perfectly around her neck.
"Lin? Are you alright?" Kya inquired. Her brow had furrowed into a concerned look that she wanted to kiss away.
Shaking herself back into sense she cleared her throat and gestured for Kya to enter. As she stepped aside and held the door Kya strode in with her healing bowl. She caught a scent of Kya as she walked past and inhaled a little deeper to get more. She had always loved the way she smelt and could never get enough. Kya smelt of the spring flowers and the summer breeze coming off the sea. Well, that's how lin would have described it.
Finally, Lin closed the door trapping her in a room all alone with the woman she loved but couldn't have. She found herself wondering if maybe she could have a second chance with Kya, But she was married now and seemed happy. She wouldn't ruin that for Kya.
