This is a Makorra Story. I have been sucked into the LOVE of the two and I just adore it.
Have you ever wondered what life would be if it followed your fantasies?
How everything would seem like a fairytale just so you could be happy?
This is one of those times as Rain turns to Fire.
Korra's POV
It seemed to be a wonderful nigh. One that you would least expect to go wrong, you know? Everyone had been still cheering for the fact that our team the Fire Ferrets had one the Championship. Let me tell you it was an exciting rush standing there in front of the crowd of cheering fans.
iIt had landed on my shoulders to win. I was against Tahno a one-on-one match. It was just the two of us battling our hearts out while our teammates sat there watching. I swirled dodging a burst of his water while sliding my foot against the ground making a whirlwind of water come forth. No one seemed to be paying attention to the timer... this was an all or nothing match. I started to sway the way I would when practicing my Airbending training to dodge the attacks one after the other. When I saw an opening I stomped my foot planting myself firmly as I threw my arms out. I felt the rush of power just as the water rushed past me and knocked the pretty boy off. I hadn't realized I had been holding my breath until I heard cheering.
Before I knew it I felt arms swing themselves around me. My ears were humming as I laughed and hugged my teammates back. I watched Bolin dance around the arena shouting to his fan girls, but then my eyes landed on Mako as his arms wrapped around Asami. I would be lying if I said it didn't sting. It felt like I was being hit by a satomobile over and over. I know that he was confused, but I can't help for feeling the way I do. My mood had been crumbled as I sneaked away before I said something. I felt my chest tighten.
Once I was in the changing lockers I ran. I didn't look back afraid of what I might see./i
This is where I am now walking in the night moon... alone. The cool air helped clear my mind. The mind that seemed to fill a normal teenage girl's head. I know I should have stayed and accepted the award with my team. I just couldn't.
"Congrats, Avatar!"said a voice as I walked down the streets. It was one of the orphans that roamed Republic City. I showed a small smile and tossed the child a Yuan which he accepted with a smile before running off. I walked to the Bay before Waterbending myself across to the Air Temple. I just felt like being alone to practice my bending.
I arrived with the lights on and knew that Tenzin and Pema were still awake. Shaking my head I walked to the back and sat crossed legged to meditate. It wouldn't be long before someone came looking forward. I knew that the man announced my disappearance on the radio which ought to worry someone. I sat there closing my eyes and taking deep steady breaths erasing all thoughts. Mako and Asami. The Championship. The Run. All of it was cleared out and replaced by peace. After what seemed like an eternity I stood up and began to sway my body. Every step was light. Every movement seemed in synced.
I felt like I was dancing around the area as I focused on the Air. I happened to open my eyes to see the light swirls of Air following my hands. My heart had sped up as I lost concentration and the Air was gone. It had been hardly anything, but then again it had been something. A little Air was telling me I was doing it all right.
I turned around feeling eyes on me to see Tenzin and Pema. They were watching me with small smiles even though their eyes flickered with worry.
"Are you alright, Korra?"asked Pema as she laid a hand on her swollen belly.
"You did great at the Championship. Why did you leave?"asked Tenzin carefully. I noticed that he was curious since the Championship was all I had been talking about for the past week. Should I tell them? I asked myself.
"I'm fine, Pema. Thank You, Tenzin, I was just having some internal conflict"I said walking by them after giving them both a quick hug. I left heading to my room before I could be asked anymore questions. I didn't exactly lie to them. I AM having an internal battle between me and my emotions for the teen Firebender. Looking into the pail of water that lied in my room I just realized that I was still in uniform. Quickly I threw the helmet onto my bed and changed. I would return the clothes in the morning once the night has calmed down.
3rd Person Mako
Mako had been standing there watching one of the best fights he had ever seen between to Benders. Tahno and Korra were moving and throwing out attacks like they were nothing. He couldn't help but to feel pride watching the Avatar fight on his team. His fingers had turned white from gripping the bar too hard. One movement made and the match had ended. The Fire Ferrets had taken the Championship.
Bolin had rushed by him and practically tackled hug Korra before releasing her to cheer at the crowd and his fan girls.
Mako went to make his way to talk to Korra when he felt arms wrap around him. He had turned surprised to see Asami as he wrapped his arms back around her. He knew his girlfriend was talking, but no sound seemed to reach the Firebender's ears. He was looking at Korra watching her face fall.
The pain Mako barely noticed had flickered in those ocean blue eyes of hers. He felt his chest tighten as she looked around making sure no one was paying attention as she slipped away from everyone. He wanted to go after her to see if she was alright. He blinked when he noticed a hand waving in front of his face.
"Hey aren't you going to collect your trophy?"asked Asami her green eyes boring into his topaz colored ones. He nodded before stepping next to Bolin who was whispering something about Korra, but the Firebender hadn't noticed.
More voices were sounded around as they took hold of the Trophy. It didn't seem right to Mako to be claiming a prize without their star winner. He knew he couldn't do anything about it though for the moment.
"It seemed like the Avatar didn't want to stay for the Prize"yelled the announcer as everyone only now seemed to take notice of the missing third player.
"TIME TO PARTY!"Bolin cheered walking out with Asami and Mako to the changing room.
"What about Korra?"asked Mako when Asami had left for them to change.
"I bet she is just tired. After all she did use a lot of energy in that last minute"Bolin said giving his brother a warm smile before walking out. Mako was left alone to change out of his uniform. He didn't feel like Korra left do to tiredness. It had looked like she was in pain.
Mako was getting ready to look for her when he was dragged by Asami to Bolin. The Firebender got a little irritated, but looking at Bolin he knew whatever he had planned on doing was going to have to wait till tomorrow. For now it was time to celebrate with or without the Avatar.
