Hey guys, sorry for not updating... like most it was because of school. Gross. Anyway here is the next chapter, I hope you like it.
Mako's POV:
(walking though the streets)
i just got off of work and I needed a break. I have 5 cases I need to solve. They are all piled on me. I keep trying to solve them but every time I get to it I am needed somewhere else.
"Detective Mako your needed here."
"Mako there's a case need ASAP."
One thing after another and I am getting nowhere. The breeze blowing feels great against my face walking through the park. Suddenly I stop, and I don't know why, but then I turn around to see the tree. The tree where Korra and I fell asleep next to each other trying to find Bolin. I blink a few times and try to push the memory behind me. It's over Mako I try to remind myself hopefully convincing myself, but it doesn't work. It won't matter how much time i have to get over Korra, she'll always be the only one I truly love. I keep waking faster than before though to surpass my thoughts. I look up to see that I am getting closer to the cities alley's and think about turning around. This is a pretty bad part of town, I know because I used to live around here. I decide to turn around but stopped when I heard noises that sounded like fighting. I started to turn back around to go see what it was. I know that's not the smart thing to do, but oh well. As I reach the alley where the fighting is I lean against the wall not to be seen and listen to what's happening.
"Is that all you have great avatar?" A man's voce said. Well that was a dead give away that Korra was in trouble. I heard kicking noises and quickly attacked the men knocking them out. No one hurts Korra, I thought. Even though the whole world sometimes wants to.
"Korra! Korra!" I yelled. I quickly picked her up and started to run towards the hospital. . I looked at her face seeing that it was badly beaten up forcing me to run faster. When I reached the hospital I yelled out, "Someone please help." People came over and took korra out of my arms putting her on a gurney and rushing her to the emergency room. They told me to sit down and wait till the healers were done with her. It felt like forever until the doctor finally came out with a report on Korra.
"Korra is stable and her wounds have been healed. There are a few broken bones. One in her ribcage and one on her leg. You can go to her room and see her, but she won't b awake. She's in room 212B." Once he finished talking I nodded quickly and rushed to Korra's room. As I enter the room I remember why I don't like hospitals. It's way to white. I look down to see Korra's body lying still on the hospital bed. Like the doctor said her wounds were healed, but you could see the scaring. That's not going to go away for a while, I thought. I sat down in a chair next to her bedside. I wasn't going to leave until I see her awake I though as I slowly drifted into a needed sleep.
Korra's POV:
As I wake up I quickly shut my eyes. Why is it so bright? Slowly I reopen my eyes, adjusting to all the white. There's a pounding I feel in my head, but I push it aside. When I turn my head slightly I see Mako. Why is he here? I think. I try to sit u, but I gasp in pain loudly. I turn to see if that woke Mako up and it did. Crap I thought. I slowly lied back down hoping the pain would subside. I turn my head again to see Mako and see worry in his face.
"Hey," he says.
"Hey," I reply. He stands up coming closer to me.
"How are you feeling?" Honestly I feel like I have been run over or hit by a bus, but I won't usually admit those kind of things.
"Fine," I reply.
"That's good, now feel me the real truth. How do you feel?"
I roll my eyes and smile a bit. "Honestly I feel like I have been run over by a car, my head is throbbing in pain, and my entire body hurts." Normally I wouldn't admit this to people but Mako is the one I would totally be honest with. And usually no one continues to ask me things when I say that I am fine.
"Is there anything you want me to get you?"
"Um," I thought, "I could use some water."
"Okay, I'll be right back." When Mako leaves the room I try to sit up but my body doesn't let me. When Mako comes back in the room he sees me struggling and helps me sit up. I groan in pain when I finally sit back.
"Sorry," he says.
"It's not your fault." Mako hands me he water and I take a few sips before handing it back to him. "I'm guessing out found me?"
"Yeah."
"What brought you that far downtown?"
"Well, I got off work and I wanted to take a walk to get some air and think." After we sat there awkwardly in silence. Finally Mako broke the silence. "I should probably go, I haven't told anyone yet about what happened, I will if you want though."
"Yeah if you could just tell Tenzin that would help" He nods his head. "Will you come back later?"
"Yeah, of course," he says smiling, and with that he walks out.
So I hope you guys like this chapter and this story. Please tell me what you think! Thanks for reading! :)
