A musky odor filled the room like a fog making it uncomfortable to breath. The lone light hanging from the ceiling flickered as it slowly swayed back and forth. Her mind slowly wakened from its lucid state, pulsating in rhythm with the light. She closed her eyes trying to remember where she was but was at no anvil but then she remembered. The thoughts flooded her mind drowning her in pain.

Flashback
The house was cold and lifeless like the dead of night. She glanced from the corner of her eye at the clock before continuing with her meditation. Late again. A small sigh escaped her lips as she brushed a stray hair behind her ear. The clicking of the lock made her almost jump out of her skin. He was trying to be quiet but the old lock kept clicking. Korra up stood in the living room and waited for him to enter the room. The door finally cracked open and he quietly slid through. He turned to close the door quietly behind him.

"You're late." Korra said her arms crossed over her chest.

"You know I had a rough day at work, it was really busy." He grunted, placing his things on the table. Mako turned to kiss her but she took a step back.

"What's wrong?" He questioned.

"You're lying. I called Chief Beifong and she said you left an hour ago." Korra hissed. His confused look quickly faded and was masked by rage.

"What are you talking about? I worked late just like I told you!" Mako barked. She turned away from him for a moment as her hands closed into fists.

"Liar." She growled.

"What? Speak up, I can't hear you." He commanded.

"Liar!" Korra screamed almost falling to her knees. Never in her life had she poured that much emotion into one word and it almost exhausted her.

"You're never here Mako. I'm always alone to care for the house while you are out doing who knows what. Beifong says you flirt with some of the girls at work like I don't even exist." Korra whispered as a lone tear trailed down her cheek. She looked up at him but his back was facing her.

"Please tell me it isn't true."

"I think we should take a break." He said quietly, removing the ocean blue scarf from his neck and handing it to her.

"Bu-but I made this for you, for your birthday." She sniffled as tears painted her cheeks. The scarf fell to the floor and Mako reached for his father's crimson one.

"So that's it. We are done." Korra choked as she reached for her parka. Mako opened the door for her and followed her out.

"Korra I will always lo-"

"Stop with the bullshit Mako." She snapped walking through the door. As soon as she stepped out the door he closed it almost catching her heels. Damn he really wanted me out of there. Korra took a deep breath and made her way to the stables where she kept Naga.

"Naga here girl." She called, still sniffling from the events earlier. The stables were completely which made Korra worry.

"Naga!" She screamed. Her heart raced in her chest as she ran through the stalls searching for her companion. The door of the last stall slowly creaked open and Korra ran to it.

"Naga!" She screeched as she rounded the corner into the stall. Suddenly all in a flash, a hand went over her mouth. She tried to slip away but every breath she took made her vision blurry, her thoughts hard to read. Then everything went blank.

End of Flashback
Korra felt sick as the memories came back. She tried to pull her hands to her face but something cut into her skin making her cry in pain. Barbed wire was wrapped around her wrists tightly, cutting off her circulation. Dried blood painted her wrists and stained the floor. Her mind slowed which bothered her extremely. As she shifted again she noticed something poking at her arm. A needle poked out of her arm and was connected to a IV bag filled with a clear liquid. The drugs were taking a toll on her, making her nauseous, dizzy and clouding her mind. Korra dropped her head down as a lone tear trickled down her cheek.

"I'm helpless, a lost cause. There really is no hope for me." She whispered. Suddenly the door behind her creaked open, snapping her out of her thoughts. Metal boots clanked against the ground, louder and louder. Korra closed her eyes tightly and hoped for it to go away. The clanking stopped abruptly in front of her and her heart began to race.

"Open your eyes." A voice commanded. She hesitantly opened her eyes afraid of what stood in front of her. A man with black hair and green eyes stared back at her, his eyes pouring into her soul. Korra couldn't help but notice the symbol printed on his shirt. It looked familiar a little too familiar.

"Who are you?" She asked her mind still a complete mess. A smile appeared on his lips at the question.

"I am the solution." He chuckled nodding his head. Suddenly something hit the back of her head knocking her out cold.
