Korra hit the ground hard. They all heard a cracking sound and ran over to check on her.
Chapter 2
Tenzin rolled Korra over to face him. She was unconscious, and had a nasty cut on her forehead. He was afraid of that. "We need to get her to the hospital, NOW!" said Tenzin urgently. They all ran to Oogie, who was conveniently located in the Bison's nest less than 80 feet away. Once they got Korra on the bison they flew away to Republic City.
Tenzin was curious as to how Korra got into the Avatar State in the first place. The only person present during the event was Asami. So Tenzin decided to ask her a couple of questions.
"Asami? You were there when Korra was in the Avatar State, Correct?"
"Yes? Why?" She knew what was coming and was ready to answer any question he asked her.
"Well, Korra tends to become frustrated and angry, often…" He stopped to think of how to phrase the question.
"Yeah…?" She was becoming impatient.
"Sometimes the Avatar State can be triggered by deep concentration, or rage." He paused for a couple seconds. "Tell me Mrs. Sato… Was Korra angry about something?"
"… Yes she was." She hoped he would stop there. It would be awkward to explain she was angry at her and Mako's relationship.
"Why was she angry?"
Crap. She could always say she didn't know why, but she knew that at some point she'd spill the truth herself. "She… She was angry at mine and Mako's relationship." There she said it. But now she had to deal with Mako.
Tenzin stopped asking questions and stayed quiet. But Mako looked shocked. His eyes were wide, his mouth was open, and he wasn't moving. "I… I um… I don't know what to say." He really didn't know what to do either. But it was his business to know because he was involved in this predicament, too. "May I ask why she's jealous of our relationship?" He wasn't completely clueless. After he was rejected by Korra after he confessed his feelings toward her, he felt lost and went back to Asami. He Thought Korra had moved on since then.
Asami was angry with him now, so she told him exactly why Korra was angry. "You are so stupid. The reason Korra went into the Avatar State was because she was mad at YOU! How could ANYONE be so blind as to how much she cares about YOU? I've noticed something bugging Korra for a while now, and knew it was about YOU! It wasn't my business to ask her why she was angry because it was supposed to be YOU that comforted her. But YOU chose to ignore her. And the reason YOU don't know about this is because YOU don't ask, YOU don't know, YOU can't see, and YOU don't CARE! And since I'm the only one in our relationship who can see that you have feelings for Korra, we are done." Her words stung him like a like a million bumble-fly's ganging up on him. All he could say was "Ouch."
Asami was annoyed. "You have nothing else to say?"
"Well, I didn't know she felt so strongly about me. I mean she never confronted me about it, and- He was cut off by Tenzin.
"We are here."
"Finally." Said Bolin quickly jumping off the bison.
Tenzin carried Korra into the hospital where he promptly walked up to the front desk and demanded for healers right away. They came out in seconds with a gurney, first aid kit, a bottle of pills, bandages and a large Tupperware container of water. They rushed into a room.
"Are you her Father, Sir?" Asked the healer stopping him from walking into the room assigned to Korra.
"No, but I am her legal guardian and Mentor." Tenzin explained. The healer let him in, but stopped Mako, Bolin and Asami. "Are you three her siblings?" Bolin was about to answer "No" but Asami elbowed him hard in the stomach. "Yes we are, sir." She said with a wide grin. "This is Mako, I'm Asami, and this is Bolin." They both waved to the healer as he reluctantly let them in.
The healers were almost done with her wrists, and hand. The three of them sat in the chairs beside the hospital bed with Korra laid peacefully on top of it. Tenzin stood by the wall with a phone in his hand. "Yes, Pema, she's quite alright. Tell the children Korra is fine and we will be back soon. Okay, I love you too, Dear. Bye now." He walked back over to Korra's side and held her hand as the healers moved to the cut on her head.
Bolin began to cry. He was staring at her with eyes that said, "Why would she do this? She's stronger than that." He moved over to her to grab her hand. As he did a knife fell out of her pocket. He picked it up. It was covered in dried blood and had writing on it that read Be Strong. "Tenzin look." He handed the pocket knife to Tenzin. He said nothing as he handed the knife back to Bolin. Bolin looked at it then put it in his pocket. He bowed his head and began to cry. Mako and Asami comforted him. As Bolin cried out his pain, the healer made things worse by giving bad news. "Oh! That's not good." Mako looked up at him and asked "What's not good." He scowled at him.
The Healer explained. "Well… She almost cracked her head open."
Tenzin yelled, "WHAT?"
"Almost. She just fractured it."
"She'll be fine, but she does need to stay a few nights for observation." Said the healer
Asami found her way into the conversation by suggesting that her, Mako and Bolin will stay with her. "We'll stay with her." Tenzin allowed it and the healer was reluctant to let them, but did.
A couple hours later Tenzin was going home. "Remember if Korra wakes up, or if anything happens, call me right away. Am I clear?" Said Tenzin in a stern voice. He then turned around and walked out the door. "Got it." Said Asami after he closed the door. She turned around and saw Bolin. His hands were covering his face, his hair was intertwined with his fingers, and his cheeks were wet with his tears. She looked at Mako, who was completely speechless. He didn't move a muscle, besides occasionally blinking, he just sat there staring at Korra. Asami then looked at Korra and the bandage wrapped around her head. She walked over and held her hand. Korra stirred. Mako and Bolin shot up from their seats and ran to the hospital bed to stand by her side. Korra opened her cerulean eyes slowly. Everyone looked happy and worried. The first person she saw was Mako. She spoke weakly.
"Mako?"
"Korra?" Mako said more than he asked.
She began speaking a bit more strongly. "Mako. I have… to tell you something… Important."
Mako leaned in. "What is it, Korra?" After he asked this Korra spat in his face and said "You're a real douche-bag."
