Korra and Mako are both experienced,young detectives, they are both from different nations and have a different way of working. What will happen if they have to work together for a big case? Will they get along or reach for each other's throat?

"Detective Korra! Someone wants to talk to you!" Korra's assistant, Ling said while holding the phone in his left hand.

"Who is it?" Korra asks.

"Chief Bei Fong. From Republic City,boss." Ling responds.

"Okay. I'll come" Korra gets up from her chair and gets to the phone. "Detective Korra speaking."

"Hello. This is Chief Bei Fong. Do you have any cases now?" the Chief never chitchats.

"No. Everything is under control in the Southern Water Tribe. Why?"

"There has been a big attack on Air Temple Island. Some airbenders were killed." There is a short moment of silence. "Are you in or what?" Lin asks impatiently.

"Count me in. I'll be in Republic City by tomorrow morning." Korra says confidently.

"See you then, detective." As Korra puts the horn down, she looks at her assistant. "Seems like we have to go to the big city!" A smile grows on Ling's face.

"What?!" the hot headed detective shouted. "How could you lose that file? This is why I should've fired you a long time ago."

"I am so sorry,sir. It'll never happen again.." Izumi,Mako's assistant, bows and leaves Mako's office. The door closes and Mako starts mumbling and complaining about his 'stupid' assistant.

*knock knock*

"Come in." Mako growls.

An officer comes in and says "Chief wants to speak to you."

"What have I done now?" the detective mumbles as he gets up from his chair.

"She wants to speak to you. Like, right now."

"Okay,okay. I'm coming."

The officer guids Mako to Bei Fong's office. The firebender knocks on the Chief's door and immediately gets an answer.

"Open the door already." Mako salutes Lin and she responds with a nod. "Sit down. I have a new case for you. A big one. If this case is going to be succesfully closed, you will be transferred to the Fire Nation."

Mako's mother still lives in the Fire Nation. It would be perfect for Mako, he could visit his mother more often. "And that's not the only thing."

"Wait.. There's more?" The detective asks suprised.

"Yes. You will get a higher title and a bigger salary."

"It's like I've won the lottery!" Mako can't believe what's happening. He took every case possible and solved it, and he is pretty sure he'll do the same with this big mission.

"But,.." Bei Fong isn't finished yet. "if you screw this up, you are fired!" just these words in one sentence gave Mako a nautios feeling. He can't lose his job, after everything he already achieved.

"It's risky.." he whispers to himself.

"Is that a yes or a no?"

"I'll take it."
