1. Prologue

The Legend of Korra and Kopa: Prologue

It was cold and windy that night, a night in which a blue-eyed lion will never forget. The golden lion was walking through the forest when he heard a horrible scream. The lion stopped dead in his tracks trying to find the direction of the scream. He then heard another sound, a roar it seemed, coming from the same direction that the last scream was heard. The golden lion dashed off in the direction of the scream and roar. He hid himself first before fully revealing himself, for fear it may have been a trap. He looked over the scene and were shocked at what he found. Making sure who or whatever had done this was no longer there, he came out of the bushes and ran to the side of another lion with the same gold fur and red mane that he had.

"F..Fa..Father?" the young lion said as he approached the body. There was no answer from the older lion, not even a sign of life. Tears began filling his ocean blue eyes as he saw his father's body. It had been, bruised, and bloodied, the young lion tried to take it all in but was having a hard time dealing with the idea that his father was truly gone.

"..Kopa…is that you?" a voice called out to him.

Kopa turned to find Aang, the Avatar, laying on the ground with about the same type of wounds as his father. Kopa quickly ran to his side and put his head down close to Aang's face. This caused the Avatar to smile at the young lion.

"Kopa…our time is up… you must find the new Avatar and fulfill your duty, as your father has done for me. "

"Aang don't talk like that. You can pull through this. The world still needs you Aang and so does Katara. Not to mention your kids Aang. What about them?"

"I'm afraid it is my time my young friend. You have always been good to me. You are just like your father. "

"Aang…no"

"Go Kopa, to the South Pole. There you will find the new Avatar. Her name will be Korra. Protect her well Kopa."

With that the Avatar closed his eyes forever leaving the young lion all alone. Kopa looked around trying to understand what was going on, if it was real or just a horrible nightmare. However, Kopa new in his heart that it was not a nightmare, but the harsh reality.

Kopa then raced off into the forest, heading for the South Pole to find the new Avatar. With only one question in the back of his mind. Who would do such a thing to a kind man and a loving lion?
