"You guys finally made it! Are you ready for my speech?" shouted Bolin, while wiggling his eyebrows. The gesture made Asami giggle and she was quickly escorted to her seat by her kind, male friend. Just as Asami had hoped for, Korra's seat was adjacent to hers. The two sat down in a rapid manner, as the ceremony was already beginning to commence.

"Ha-ha! And though the battle took a severe toll on our beloved city, out of the destruction, love did bloom. So that is why, dearest friends and family, we gather today to celebrate the wondrous and at times inexplicable bond between Sir Varrick and the Lady Zhu Li!"

"Hey, pal. Camera on me." ordered Varrick. "This is my big day!"

"True love is a fickle creature, difficult to find, nearly impossible to tame, but Varrick and Zhu Li have proven that even the longest of long shots can have a chance at happiness together," explained Bolin to the audience. "Now for the vows! Thank you, master Pabu. Do you, sir Iknik Blackstone Varrick of the Southern water tribe, master of the high seas, take the lady Zhu Li Moon to be your lawfully wedded wife? Will you promise to treat her not as your assistant but as your honored and cherished partner?"

"You're darn tootin' I do!" replied Varrick eagerly, already impatient to marry Zhu Li.

"And do you, Zhu Li, take Varrick to be your lawfully wedded husband? Do you promise to care for him in sickness and in health, and and also scrub his calluses on a bi-weekly basis, which isn't really that much to ask Okay, I'm not reading all this." The audience burst out into laughter.

"I do take Varrick, calluses and all."

"You may now do the thing." After the last word was uttered, Zhu Li swept Varrick off his feet, causing him to fall on her. They locked lips in a passionate kiss. Varrick began to cry as the audience clapped and roared for the newly-wed couple.

Asami's heart began to swell. All of the love in the air had warmed her heart and took away some of the pain in her father's death. As she looked around, her head turned towards Korra, and she felt a deep yearning for her friend. Korra had gotten up to talk to Mako and Prince Wu. While continuing to gaze at her friend, Asami realized that Korra was more than a friend to her. The idea of losing Korra was almost as worse as losing her father. No, it would hurt even more. After nearly losing Korra, Asami was determined never to let her go again. A plan immediately began to formulate inside her head. She would tell Korra how much she meant to her and how much she loved her.

Korra had finished chatting with Mako and was now headed towards the pavilion. As Asami was just about to walk towards Korra, Tenzin arrived before she did. He soon began to chat with Korra. I'll just have to think of something to get Tenzin to leave. After a couple of minutes, Asami was ready to have her plan executed.

"Excuse me, Tenzin. Varrick is looking for you. Something about wanting to borrow a glider suit to fly off the tower."

"That doesn't seem like a good idea." Tenzin's brows quickly furrowed as he quickly strode away, leaving Asami alone with Korra. Wow, that actually worked, thought Asami to herself.

"Want to sit with me for a minute? I'm not ready to get back to the party just yet." Korra gestured for Asami to come closer and patted on the place next to her. "I don't think I ever really apologized."

A puzzled expression began to form on Asami's face.

"For what?"

"For being gone all that time. For not coming back sooner."

"You don't need to apologize for anything. I'm just so happy you're here now. I don't think I could have handled losing you and my father in the same day." Asami had meant every word she had said. She didn't blame Korra for anything. In fact, she was very grateful for Korra, for everything that she had done. She had revealed the truth about her father. She had uncovered that the life that she had been living with her father had been a lie.

"I am so sorry about what happened."

"Thank you. I'm just glad I was able to forgive him." There was a silent pause.

"So what now? Back to the dance floor? I'm kind of all danced out."

"Honestly, after everything that's happened the past few months, I could use a vacation."

"Let's do it." affirmed Korra, her eyes suddenly lighting up. "Let's go on a vacation, just the two of us, anywhere you want." Korra could not believe at what was happening. This was what she had wanted for what had felt like an eternity.

"Really? Okay." A break was definitely something Asami wanted. Korra, was what she wanted. "I've always wanted to see what the spirit world's like."

"Sounds perfect."

After bidding their farewells and congratulating the newly-weds again, Korra and Asami departed. The drive was a long one. Finally arrived, the two eagerly hopped off the Sato-mobile. The two women walked towards the iridescent pillar of violet and white lights, both women bedazzled by its surreal beauty. Even more so, they were enchanted by the thought of spending time with the other. Things looked brighter, more illuminating than ever, as the pair took their first step into the magical spirit world.
