FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN THE FINALE STOP REDAING BECAUSE THERE ARE SPOILERS IN HERE
"So I was thinking, I'm not really a fan of a long distance relationship thing. So how about you move to Republic City with me?" Bolin asked Eska.
It took her a minute to process what would happen, but after what had occurred, she could tell he loved her so she said with the smallest smile, "I would love to join you in RepublicCity."
"Could I have a minute with my sister?" Desna said.
"Um...yeah sure." Bolin went to talk with his brother.
Eska knew what Desna was about to talk to her about.
"What am I going to tell mother? That you ran off with an earth-bender you've known for a few months?" Desna asked her.
It's not that Eska wanted to abandon her mother and brother, she just knew it was something she had to do, even though she had ever been away from her brother for long periods of time. That would be the hardest part, nevertheless she said, "I shall come back to visit, but I know it is my destiny to go where he goes. That has been made clear to me," Eska answered.
Desna sighed and rolled his eyes. "I don't understand what it is you see in him, but I guess that I will have to deal with it."
"We are going to go back to the south pole now. Then we are going to go to RepublicCity as soon as everything is settled." Bolin walked over and told the two of them.
"Desna and I must go back to the north to reorganize and figure out things there. Then I shall meet you in RepublicCity later." Eska told him.
"Okay then." Bolin grabbed her face and kissed her just like Eska had kissed him earlier. "See you then. In RepublicCity." He smiled then ran off to the southern portal.
Eska turned and looked at Desna. "Let's just go." She was pretty sure she heard him mumble something like "At least I won't have to deal with that."
Bolin walked in and heard, "I'll always love you Korra."
"And I'll always love you." He saw Korra walk away.
He must have told her. It doesn't look like it ended well.. "You wanna hug?" He didn't wait for a reply. Bolin hugged his brother and it reminded him of all those times when they were kids on the street and Mako had comforted him.
Mako was hurt and sure Bolin helped some, but this was the girl he loved, and he knew he would get her back.
"So you told her you guys broke up and she didn't want to stay with you?"
"After she went in that tree, she saw her memories and she remembered the fight. She said we can't happen."
Bolin looked at Mako's face. "You don't agree with that, do you?" Bolin asked sadly.
"No, I don't. I'll get her back. Someday." He knew he had to do some maturing first. Then he would go after her.
"Mother, we come bearing news," Desna informed.
"Father fused with a dark spirit, leaving Cousin Korra with no choice but to wipe him out. Before his demise he destroyed part of RepublicCity. He had literally turned into a monster." Eska explained to her mother.
She nodded. "Thank you, my children. Though I am saddened by your father's absence, I trust you. If even you think your own father needed to be taken down, he must've been a monster." The reason their mother hadn't been travelling with them was because she disagreed with her husband's spiritual ways and his communication with Vaatu, the force of darkness. She loved her children very much, and knew they could take care of themselves.
Desna and Eska looked at each other then back to their mother. "Desna and I will leave you, now." Eska began to walked out of her mother's chamber.
"Actually, Eska," Desna said as Eska stopped in her tracks, "I believe you have something else you would like to tell mother."
Eska's eyes widened. Really, Desna. You had to bring that up now? She told him with her eyes. She didn't want to tell her she'd be leaving just after their father had left them forever. I can't tell her now. "I...I wanted to tell you that...our Uncle Tonraq was going to be made chief of the southern tribe."
"Okay," her mother said, a little confused why Eska needed to tell her that. "You may leave now. I need to have meetings with the councils."
As the twins exited the large room Desna asked, "So you have chosen not to leave?"
"I am not going to tell her I'm leaving just as soon as she found out about father. That would just be cruel." She was also sixteen, and though this was the marrying age where most water tribe women left their homes, she loved her mother so much and wasn't ready yet to leave. "I'm just going to take a couple weeks before I tell her."
"She will still be saddened, no matter when you do it."
"I know," Eska stated as she left to write a letter to Bolin telling her that she would be staying longer than expected.
"Its been week, don't you think she should've been here by now? What if something happened to her?" Bolin started to panic as he paced around the meditation pavilion trying to speak to Korra.
"I don't know. I'm sure she's fine. You got trapped by her a couple times in the north. She's a strong enough bender." Korra told him trying to calm him down so she could meditate.
"I'm gonna go home and try to get some sleep." Bolin left.
"Okay," Korra said, confused. Bolin had been trying to spend much of his free time with Korra because her and Mako hadn't been talking as much lately. And it kept his mind off worrying about Eska, except today. He'd about had it with the wait, not knowing if she was okay, in trouble, or if she had changed her mind. The last two would break his heart but what would've been most painful is if she changed her mind. He'd always been able to look on the bright side of things, but this time he didn't know how he'd be able to go on if something had happened.
Bolin checked his apartment's mailbox and found a letter from Eska. He didn't know whether to be happy because he heard from her or sad that she wasn't here. Nevertheless, he went to his personal apartment and opened the letter.
Dear Bolin,
I am not ready to leave my home...
Bolin stopped reading, concerned, because he thought she wasn't coming.
because my mother is in grieving from my father's death.
"Whew," Bolin said out loud in his silent apartment.
I did not want to leave her at such a time where two of her family members would not be near. I owe my mother everything, and I will stay with her as long as she needs. I miss you, my turtleduck, and I hope to see you within a month. No longer than two. I promise.
Eska
He was relieved because everything was okay, but he still missed her. It would be a hard month, less if he counted the time the letter took to get here.
