Korra POV
I lied down in my bed, staring up at the ceiling. So much had gone on today. Amon.. Tarrlock... Mako.. Avatar Aang. I could finally connect with the spirit world. Tenzin was right. Maybe meditating was all it took.
There was a knock on my door. I sat up quickly, a little too quickly. "Come in!" I said.
The door opened to reveal Mako, who closed the door quietly behind him. He walked towards me and sat beside me.
"Hey," I said quietly.
"Hey. How are you feeling?"
I smiled. "Better, thanks."
"So... what happened, exactly?" I asked.
Mako sighed. "Well.."
Flashback:
"Korra's in trouble. Amon captured her," Lin explained.
"No. No, she can't be gone!" Mako exclaimed.
"Come on, we have an Avatar to rescue."
The team walked into Tenzin's office, finding him on the phone.
"I have to go. Call me back the minute you hear anything." Tenzin hung up and stood up. Lin? Wh-what? What are y-? You should be in the hospital! And you three! You should be in prison!"
"I figured you could use our help finding Korra," Lin said quickly.
Mako stepped forward. "Do you have any leads?"
Tenzin sighed. "I've been on the phone all morning, but nothing yet."
"We need Naga!" Mako exclaimed. "She can track Korra."
"I'm afraid her polar bear dog is missing as well."
"Then where do we start?" Bolin chimed in.
"My guess is the equalists are hiding underground, in the maze of tunnels beneath the city," Lin explained.
"Underground... just like my father's secret factory. Figures," Asami said solemly.
"Yeah! Yeah, that makes sense! When those chi-blockers had me in their truck, it sounded like we drove into a tunnel!" Bolin shouted.
"I know where to start looking! Come on!" Mako said. They rushed out of the room.
They stop at an alleyway. "The truck with Bloin took off down this alley," Mako explained. The group jogged to the next intersection.
"Which way?" Asami asked.
Bolin sniffed the air. "Hmm. This way kinda... smells familiar."
Lin feels for metal using metalbending.
"There's a tunnel nearby."
There was a large metal gate. "There!" Mako shouted.
Lin inspected the ground, narrowing her eyes. "Motorcycle tracks." She quickly metal bended the gate up.
"Korra has to be in there... somewhere," Mako said.
"Let's try this way," he said, using a flame to light the way.
"And what if Korra's not down there?" Asami asked.
"Then we pick another tunnel until we find her!" Mako said sharply.
Motorcycles were heard, and Lin whipped her head around. "Hide!"
TIME SKIP...
Mako grabbed one of the Equalists and shoved him against the wall. "Avatar Korra. Where are you keeping her?" he asked angrily.
The Equalist looked shocked.
Mako's face twisted into a sneer. "I'll ask you one more time; where is she?"
"We don't have the Avatar, and the Equalists didn't attack City Hall. Tarrlock's lying," the Equalist said shakily.
Mako dropped him. "What?"
"I scanned the entire prison," Lin said, "Korra's not here."
"Why would Tarrlock make up a story about getting attacked?" Mako asked.
"Because he has Korra. He has fooled us all!" Tenzin said.
A siren was heard.
"Let's go, people!" Bolin said.
*FIGHT SCENE*
"Try to chi-block that, fools!" he said triumphantly.
"We got more company!" Lin shouted. "Hang on!"
HUGE TIME SKIP
End Flashback:
"That's basically it," Mako said.
I looked down at the floor. "You got pretty angry, huh?"
Mako sighed. "Yeah.."
"I don't really remember anything..."
"Good, I don't want you to have to think about it."
"But.. I do remember one thing.."
Flashback:
Korra suddenly heard Mako's voice.
"Give her some space!"
And then she was being cradled in someone's arms. She looked up to find Mako.
"I was so worried," he said. "Are you all right?"
Korra smiled weakly. "I'm fine. I'm glad you're here." She closed her eyes and rested her head against Mako's chest. She could feel herself being put down, then a hand brushing her hair back from her face. The last thing she heard was Mako saying "You're safe now," then she fell asleep.
End Flashback:
"Mako... you saved my life.." I whispered.
Mako pulled me into a hug. "I don't know what I'd do without you," he said, kissing my nose. I blushed furiously.
"Mako..."
He grabbed my chin and tilted my face upwards. We locked eyes for a second, before he crashed his lips onto mine. I kissed him back, trying to connect with the fact that Mako was kissing me.
I pulled away reluctantly. Stupid oxygen. I looked up at Mako, and smiled, then realized something.
"Mako.. what about Asami?"
"We broke up. It was mutual," he said, kissing me again. This time, I didn't think twice about hurting Asami.
"I love you, Korra. I'm sorry it took me so long to realize it."
I broke out into a wide smile. "I love you, too, Mako."
Aww :D
