"Korra?" Mako asked, but Korra was crying again

"Korra what's wrong?" he asked, his eyes locked on the beautiful woman, that's when Korra passed out in his arms. Her eyes shutting and her body going limp

"KORRA!"

CHAPTER 2

"Korra? Korra wake up!" Mako clung to her body, what was he going to do? He scooped her up in his arms and ran as hard as he could the direction he had come. His voice was hoarse from the earlier fight he and the avatar had, but it didn't stop him, what was wrong with her? "Somebody help us, please!"

He legs were moving so hard to get to somebody; he just needed to find someone. As he neared the dining room, he quickly opened the door and saw Tenzin and Pema "What happened?" he asked, his words catching, he looked down to Korra her arms were hanging down from where Mako was holding her

"I don't know, one minute she was fine and the next she just passed out!" Mako yelled, was this his fault? He knew he and Asami was hurting Korra, but knowing it contributed to this, he felt like passing out himself, he didn't want to hurt Korra, so he ignored her and kept his distance from her, if he had of known that this would be the out-come he wouldn't have done it.

There was long, thick heavily silence, as everyone in the room looked at Mako, he was terrified. Pema was the one to break it "We need to get her to some healers and a hospital; I will go and find Asami and Bolin. Tenzin can you also call Lin?" She asked so sweetly

"Yes we need to get her to a hospi- Why would I call Lin?" He asked shocked,
"As much as I dis-like her, she is the only one I trust with my children and with everything that has been going on lately, I know you do to." He looked at her his face going pale, but he was to worried about Korra to fight back
"Yes, dear"

Once they were on outside, Oogie was saddled up and ready to go, Korra was still panting, and her clothes were drenched in sweat. Her body temperature was through the roof, Mako was still holding her, he wasn't going to let her go. He held her close to his body, why didn't she tell him that she was sick…or whatever she was.

"Mako would you like me to hold her?" Tenzin asked
"No" he answered bluntly, why would he even ask that? Of course he wasn't going to let him hold her, it was Mako's fault she was like this, and he was going to fix it. Mako sat down on the back of the bison, gently sitting down trying not to stir her. Mako didn't take his eyes off her, how could he have ignored her like that, even if he and Korra weren't together they were friends regardless.

As he looked at her, her eyes fluttered open
"M-Mako?" her voice catching
"I'm here Korra" he replied, she gave him a smile as a tear rolled down her cheek, he moved his thumb to her cheek and wiped it away gently, that's when the shaking started again.

"Korra?" he asked, frantically pulling her tighter towards him
"H-help me Mako" she cried, he didn't know what to say, what could he say? She let out a strangled yelp then started thrashing violently. Her head was pounding, her heart going a million miles per hour. Mako held her tightly trying to stop her from hurting herself; she let out a blood curdling scream, everyone on the bison cringed at the sound of it
"Tenzin hurry it up! She needs help!" Mako screamed almost as loud as Korra's, Tenzin was probably shocked that Mako had screamed at him but he was right. Korra did need help.

When they finally arrived at the healers, Korra's condition had only worsened; she was thrashing around so violently Mako was having a hard time keeping her in his arms. Mako ran into the small building where the water benders were already running out to help her
"Son, we need to take her from you now" The older one said to Mako, Mako just clung to her tighter, he was not about to let some stranger take her from him

"What? No, I'm not leaving her!" he yelled at the old man

"If you want her to survive, then you have to trust me" he looked at Mako, his voice serious, Tenzin placed his hand on Mako's shoulder

"Mako, you have to let them help her…who knows what will happen if you don't" Tenzin said, he was obviously worried about her as well. Mako took one last look at her face, taking in all her features.

He walked over to the older man and placed her in his arms "just bring her back…"

The old man then walked away with the young avatar in his arms, Mako stood there frozen and fell to his knee's not knowing what would happen to her.

Tenzin was pacing around the room, his robes flowing gently behind him; Mako was sitting down on the ground, his back to the wall and his head down. Tenzin looked down at the young fire bender; did he notice that anything was wrong with her? He had to ask

"Mako, did you notice anything unusual about Korra's behaviour lately, anything unusual?"

Mako looked up at him "Besides what has happened tonight, no I haven't" how could he have, he had been ignoring her, Tenzin then looked down

"Have you?" he asked, his eyes firmly locked on Tenzin, he looked over to Mako then sat down on the seats on the other side of the small room

"When Korra was training for her air bending, she was very jumpy. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, well to be honest I still can't" he then stopped and let out a sigh

"Ever since Tarlock took her, and she had to face Amon while escaping him, she has been waking up screaming, gasping for air. She cries herself to sleep every night, I have tried talking to her, but she just shuts me out" he said looking at Mako, his eyes were wide and his face was white. He was a horrible person.

"Why didn't you tell me this?" he said, his voice slightly sharp, but still hoarse

"She was losing her mind and no one told me! I would have helped her through it, I would have done something!" he yelled standing up, walking out of the waiting room

"Where are you going?" Tenzin yelled at him

"To see Korra, and not you or any of the healers or doctors in this building can stop me" he spat; he was infuriated that no one told him about this, why didn't she tell him about this?
"Oh yeah that's right because I'm a horrible friend!" he screamed to himself, walking towards the room where they had taken Korra, the old healer walked out to stop him

"I don't think you should go in there son"

"I don't think you should be ordering me around" he said, his eyes narrowed at the old man. He then stepped towards the door pushing it open, he walked into the room frantically searching for Korra.

"Where is she, I saw you take her into this room!" He yelled, running over to the bed, it didn't look like anyone had been in it.

"I told you not to come in here son" the old man, standing near the door looked over at Mako

"What have you done with her?" He then lit a small flame into his hand, he then looked over towards the bed again and realised the window was open; the old man looked harmless enough. Mako could take him down easy

"Where is she!" he screamed, he heard the old man chuckle, he also heard footsteps coming from behind him, he quickly turned himself around to look at the window, a whole group of chi-blockers were now in the small room. Mako kicked a large wave of flames towards the group of chi-blockers, the dodged the attack easily. Mako had barely any room to move, but he wasn't going to give up that easy, Mako was an amazing fire bender, he could take out a couple of chi-blockers.

One after the other the chi-blockers fell, Mako not going easy on them, there were two left out of a group of twelve, he went to go throw another kick when he felt a sharp pain on the temple of his head. He fell to the ground, the fire in his hand going out, one of the two chi-blockers started wrapping a rope around his hands, he then looked over to the man and he was holding a metal stick, he was flicking it up and down in the air with a smug look on his face. Mako was still conscious but barely, blood was dripping into his eye from his cut, and that's when the blackness started to engulf him. The last thing he heard the man say was

"You want to know where she is, we will take you to her"
