Bolin and I followed Korra all the way to Air Temple Island. "Okay now everybody stretch." I really do not see how this was going to be such a tiring workout… Bolin and I did our normal pre-training stretches before Korra came over to us.

"That might be fine for a match, but not for my type of training! Like this!" She showed us a back bend, a split, and finished off with a stretch I wasn't even entirely sure was possible! She stood on one foot and touched her toes with one hand and lifted the other leg extremely high in the air with her other hand wrapped her ankle.

"It stretches your hamstring. Now you guys try it! Especially you Bo-Bo, it is really easy to hurt leg muscles in earth bending."

"Would you stop calling me Bo-Bo? I mean really you're killing my masculinity here Imp." She stuck her tongue out at him.

"Don't call me Imp! That is such a stupid nickname! At least Bo-Bo makes sense!" Bolin and I exchanged looks.

"I think that it's the perfect nickname for you, you're both small, loud, and uncontrollable!" She glared at me.

"Just do the stretches Jerkbender. And just because I am shorter than you guys doesn't mean I am small! You guys are HUGE" I shook my head.

"Face it, you're short." She glared at me, "Well how old are you guys like 18! I am younger so I can be shorter!"

I smiled, "Close I am 19 and Bolin is 17." She rolled her eyes and mumbled, "Whatever just do the stretch."

I saw Bolin attempt the 'toe touch' first. He fell on his face.

"Well your turn!" Korra said brightly while helping Bolin up.

"I am sorry but it is physically impossible for Jerkbenders to do that stretch, its hereditary I am afraid." I said smugly.

"Well then let me help you!" Something wasn't right here… She grabbed my ankle and pulled it out from under me so that I fell down.

"What was that for?" I asked while rubbing my back.

"You needed to stretch! Even I knew that Mako!" Said Bolin. I glared at him, "Shut up Bo-Bo!"

He stuck his tongue out at me.

"You guys ready for the real training to begin?" We both nodded quickly.

"Okay but just remember be a leaf and don't bend okay?" We nodded with a confused look on our faces. She led us to a cleared area with a bunch of panels turning.

"Get though their without touching the panels. One at a time! Mako go first!" I stood in place.

"Why do I have to go first? I am the captain!" She punched my shoulder.

"You gave me attitude! Now march mister!" I sighed and went through. I heard snickering behind me.

"Is that the thing you were telling me about?" I could practically hear the evil smile on her face, "Yup!"

"No way! Mako! BE THE LEAF!" I rolled my eyes and started to strategize. I needed to be light on my feet, willing to change at a moments notice. With this in my head I went in and got back out again quickly. I was met with Korra's shocked expression.

"How! It took me forever to learn that!" She complained.

"I guess I am just better than you." She glared at me. "Fine next thing, we are going to run! And Mako?" She asked me.

"Yes?" She smiled.

"You just earned yourself an extra lap around the island." I didn't get a chance to respond before we started running. In total we did 10 laps around the island until I had to do my extra lap. And let me tell you that island is BIG! When I got back I faced the disappointed face of Korra.

"20 minutes? For one lap around the island! It is only a small island!" I glared at her.

"Where is Bolin?" She smiled and flipped her hair behind her ear. She wasn't even tired! I was out of breath!

"Creating rock boulders and then lifting them without bending." At least he didn't get out of work.

"One more lap but this time you have to carry me!" She said while jumping on my back. I held her tightly to my back, she wasn't heavy by any means I just did not want to drop her.

"Why? I did the extra lap!" She smirked.

"It wasn't bad, but, you obviously need someone to push you and you're in luck! I happen to be very pushy! Now mush!"

I rolled my eyes and ran. If I slowed down she would scream things like, "My grandma can run faster!" the classic, "I don't want to be in the next Avatars body before we get there!"

By the time she had finally gotten enough of me running I was on the ground panting for breath. Bolin soon joined me.

"Now that is how you do a training session boys! Who needs a gym!" She was met with silence because neither of us had energy to talk.

"Now for the last part I want you guys to swim back!" We both gathered up enough air to groan. By the time we finally got back to the apartment Bolin went to the bar claiming he needed to relax. I was just going to go back and pig out on the rest of my pancakes. But when I entered the kitchen I saw Korra making beef stir fry.

"It is important that after an intense workout that you eat a lot of protein to rebuild muscle." She said quietly. I nodded and sat down and started eating. I noticed that she did not touch her food.

"You did well today, maybe with some more training you can be as good as me!" She said while laughing.

"Well I think the question is how much more training until you are as good as me." She gasped.

"Please I am better than you in my sleep!" I realized I had finished my stir fry so I stole a little off her plate.

"Prove it." I said while leaning in close to her. I saw her gulp a little before she got a stubborn look in her eye.

"Finish eating, I decided that training isn't over yet. We are going to spar, without bending." I leaned back and shrugged, "I hope you love losing, because I would hate to see you sad." She glared.

"Gym now." She commanded.

"Wait Korra, you haven't eaten!" she turned around.

"Oh- I am not hungry. I usually don't eat much dinner." After that workout?

"You didn't eat breakfast either, and none of us stopped for lunch." I said calmly. Why wasn't she eating?

"So? I have a weird appetite." I quickly grabbed her wrist and gently sat her down in the chair.

"We are not sparring until you eat at least half of that meal." She rolled her eyes at me. "I don't eat when I do intense training, I get cramps!" I looked into her eyes.

"Eat or you forfeit." She glared at me but started eating. She shoved it down and shot up.

"Prepare to lose!" We ran to the gym. We got into our fighting positions. I noticed that her back foot was in normal position but her front foot was balancing on the ball. I decided that I would exploit that weakness. She kept the defensive as she waited for me to strike. I did a distraction jab to her face while trying to trip her from foot. Needless to say she expected it and her back foot tripped my back foot and we both came tumbling down. I landed on top of her, accidentally straddling her waist. She looked so beautiful laying there. Her hair had tumbled out of its wraps during the fall and it was all around her. Her cheeks had a bright splash of red in them. And her lips were open because she was breathing heavily. Adrenaline? Excitement? I didn't know, but I knew that I could not resist leaning down and placing my lips on hers. Her response was instant, she kissed me back shyly. But I wasn't having that so I grabbed her face with my hands in a gentle hold. This seemed to inspire some confidence in her and she kissed me back eagerly. I was running out of air so I broke apart. It was Korra who spoke first.

"Glad to see I got rid of the sadness you felt when you lost." She then smiled brightly. I rolled my eyes.

"It was a draw!" She laughed and pulled me closer.

"Kiss me again and then try to tell me it was a draw." This was going to be a battle. Only Korra…
