Ok, so I hope that you like the way that this story was written. I worked really hard on it! I know that I changed several things like the fact that Tenzin is much younger and he has no wife/kids but I hope you like it otherwise. Please enjoy. I don't own LOK.

The White Truth

It's finally time, I thought to myself as I through my bag over my shoulder. The bag contained all of my clothes and bending weapons. I was due to start her air bending training by the one and only air bending master left, Tenzin son of the Avatar.

As my thoughts drew on I flinched a bit when I felt a gloved hand on my shoulder. Turning I saw the saddened face that belonged to my best friend, Anyo. Anyo has been best friend since birth. He was there for me always and it made him very hurt when he found out that I was leaving him.

"Korra, you don't have to leave. You can just wait so he can move here." Anyo said biting his lip. Silver rimmed his eyes as a silver, opaque thread of tears trailed down his cheeks. My expression reflected his own.

Placing a hand on his arm I removed it from my shoulder and held it up to my cheek. Tears moistened his gloved. "You know that I wouldn't do this unless I had to. I am sorry Anyo, but I have to live with Tenzin for now."

"Korra, always remember that I will be waiting for you, never forget me," Anyo whispered as he cried even harder bringing me into a tight hug.

I tightened my grasp around him. I loved this boy and I didn't want to let him go, but I had to move to Republic City. I deeply wished that I wasn't the Avatar at moments like these.

As Anyo and me continued to hug Tenzin landed his Sky Bison, Oogi next to them, he hopped off Oogi and walked towards us. Tapping my shoulder with a shiver he motioned for her to come with him to leave. Tenzin wasn't used to the cold weather of the Water Tribe.

"Korra, sorry to break this up, but collect your things and come with me. We are on a tight Schedule and we have to leave within the next fifteen minutes." I looked over at Tenzin and scanned him with my blue orbs.

Tenzin was wearing the traditional Air Bender robes that hung loosely on his body. Tenzin had pale gray eyes and a shaved head with a blue arrow on his head like his father.

Tenzin was a young Air Nomad that was a very skilled Air Bender. Tenzin even though only a mere 21 years of age already accomplished so much in little time.

I gave a sigh and nodded, "Yeah I understand don't worry let me go get Naga." Naga was my polar dog. I sauntered off with Anyo at her side, getting closer to my home Anyo grabbed my arm and jerked me to a stop.

"Anyo wha-"I was cut off by an abruptly kiss that was displayed onto me by Anyo. Slowly pulling away Anyo whispered, "I love you never forget me." With that he gave me one last hug and ran away back to his own home.

I stood there in a daze for a few moments. I brought up my bare fingers to my warm lips. I was shocked by what just happened.

How can that just happen, I asked myself. As I retrieved Naga from the now empty home, I lived alone, me and my parents once lived together a happy family, but one day when they went out hunting they just disappeared. From that day on I have basically been on my own.

As I was walking back to Tenzin she heard hushed voices. I slowed my walking and listened to them. It was Katara and Tenzin who were talking.

"Tenzin, when are you are you going to give me grandchildren?"

"Mom, will you please stop hassling me about that? I want to wait for the right person."

"Oh, I know my dear I just worry about you. But, just be careful not to fall in love with her."

"Mom stop please."

"Zin, you and her will basically be alone on that island. You're a young man and she a young woman. It would only be natural…" Katara was cut off by an annoyed voice that was Tenzin's.

"Mom, she is my pupil. I don't look at her that way."

"Okay, I am only looking out for both of you."

The voices stopped, I walked into view of both of them. Their eyes shot up when they heard me. "Oh Korra dear you're here!" Katara said was she walked over and gave me a hug.

"Hi, Katara," I smiled at my Water Bender teacher.

"Oh well, you two must be going, goodbye now." She said as she gave me a small wave as I began to walk towards Oogi. I ushered Naga up onto Oogi. She jumped up and curled up into a ball looking like she had no care in the world.

I wish that I could be like her. Never have to worry about anything. No Avatar duties, no worrying about the kiss. No nothing.

As I climbed onto Naga I lay down in the saddle next to Naga and heaved a sigh. "Well, Korra do you have everything?" Tenzin asked me as he jumped onto the Sky Bison.

I looked over to him, he had a curios look as he stared at me. "Yeah, I have my bag and I have Naga." I said as I pointed to the two.

"Okay, good we will arrive at Air Temple Island in a few hours. So until then try to get some sleep. The time change is several hours."

"You don't want me to take over and let you rest for an hour or two?" I offered. I saw Tenzin hesitate and give a small smile.

"Let's see ok? If I get tired then I will let you drive, but that is unlikely."

Giving a nod I turned back around with my back towards Tenzin. For the rest of the ride I slept. While I slept I had dreams of Anyo screaming at me. In every dream he screamed, "Korra why did you leave me? Why did you leave me when I love you?"

After on particularly scary dream I woke up screaming. It was of Anyo, I was trying to run towards him but each time I tried he got farther and farther away.

I woke up screaming, gasping for breath, tears in my eyes it seemed so real. I sat up gasping for air Tenzin heard my pained breaths. He rushed over to me to see if I was ok.

"Korra, what's wrong?" Worry crossed his face.

"A- a dream a bad dream," I sobbed as I tried to hold back to tears. I took deep breaths trying to calm myself down.

"Shsh, Korra cry if you need too. Do you want to tell me what happened in your dream?" Tenzin asked concern dripped from his voice.

"No." I shook my head ashamed. I shouldn't have cried Tenzin shouldn't see me in this weakened state.

"Ok, but if you ever need to talk, you can talk to me." He said as he went back to steering Oogi.

I sniffled and gave a small nod. From that moment on I didn't sleep for the rest of the ride. I just laid against Naga and stared at the stars as they passed up above me.
