Chapter 4 no povs
Hey guys thanks for all the support Urghh... I'm trying character POVs here, so on with it !
Amon sat on the edge of his bed, face in his hands. His whole office and room was a mess. With papers and plans here and there, posters and plans ripped out from the wall and books out of the shelves. And that was only his office. His closet was tipped over, with a broken cabinet door and several bloodied holes on the walls from his punches. He has calmed down due to fatigue. He has been on a tantrum until a follower of his was sent to give him his breakfast. He looked up at the desk where his breakfast was, cold by now. Amon stood up and walked over to the tray of delicacies, tossing it off the table as well with a crash.
He decided to take a long hot shower, should it soothe his raging headache. As he stripped off his tunic and turned on the shower, he slightly calmed down but as he stayed longer under the scorching hot shower, then did his anger came back.
Her smile, her laugh, her innocence, he wanted it but he knew he can't. He pounded on the wet walls of the bathroom till cracks appeared. He pulled on his hair until some fell out. He decided that he has been in the shower long enough and got out.
Putting on some civilian clothing, he left. The Lieutenant was just entering as he left, leaving him standing there as he set off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Another Council meeting was held again. It was about the rumors of ex-Equalists resurfacing again, still not content. There were Equalists posters everywhere, telling benders that they are coming back, not satisfied still.
"I think the Avatar should speak to their new leader," Tarrlok spoke up as the others looked up at him. The whole meeting has drained Korra lifeless for she was still so afraid of Amon even if she has exposed him. Zetsui looked worriedly at Korra. She managed to give him a meek smile.
"Tarrlok that is a rather dangerous idea," Tenzin intervened. "Korra is still rather shaken from the whole incident and we don't want to continue her suffering."
"But she may be accompanied, it will be just a treaty with the new leader, ask them how could we quench their thirst for vengeance." Tenzin was not so pleased that he kept on with the idea. "I think it would be a splendid idea for Korra for she is the Avatar and she should bring balance." The other Council members nodded in agreement with Tarrlok. Zetsui just shook his head. She's still afraid. He clenched his fists at the thought of his love all scarred and broken.
"I'll offer to go," Zetsui stood up from his seat. Korra looked at him, eyebrows pinched together. "I don't support the decision either but if this will end the Equalists quicker then, I guess we should." Korra's mouth was set in a thin line. It wasn't really a bad idea, the quicker the better. Maybe she should do it after all, it was just a treaty.
Korra nodded hesitantly before rising up. "I think I will do it. It's just a treaty right? But how are we to contact them."
Tarrlok smirked and answered, "I have my ways."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Korra picked at her cake as Zetsui took a sip of her tea. The two were having tea after long hours of discussion over the treaty. Zetsui put down his cup and placed his hands over Korra's.
"It will be fine Korra, just a simple treaty." She smiled sadly at him, knowing it won't be okay. He knows it too, it has never been okay.
They finished their teas quickly and headed to Air Temple Island, the sun setting. They hopped on a ferry and waited. When they arrived, both got off, hand in hand with each other. Just as Zetsui was about to leave for he was just dropping her off, she quickly hugged him from behind.
"Stay with me for a bit, please."
The two walked around the Island until they reached Korra's favorite place in the whole Island. The cliff. She would usually sit there and stare at the ocean, calming her thoughts. But it felt better sharing it with someone. They stood side by side each other, staring at the sunset hand in hand. They watched until the last rays of sunlight went down. As Korra started to walk back, Zetsui quickly turned Korra around and kissed her on the lips. His lips were moist and soft on her's. When he pulled back, Both were blushing slightly. He hugged her then tightly, like he would lose her if he didn't held on.
"Korra, I love you and I just want this nightmare to end quickly and you to be happy," he cupped her cheek staring sadly at her. Korra just stared back at him, touched. She leaned in again and kiss him. Both were more passionate. They finally pulled back from the heated kiss. Zetsui pulled her in for another hug, his head resting on her head as she rested at his chest.
Zetsui gave Korra a quick peck on the lips, waving slowly. As the ferry set off, the Island shrinking, Zetsui heard a deep, stern voice behind him.
"We need to discuss this,"
Holy shit, look at this I'm finished with chapter 4! I was listening to music that fitted and hell yes I'm done in a flash. I'm not sure if I'll do POVs I might use it but I'm still unsure. Hope you enjoyed this 3Fuck it's still too short whatever the next chapters are longer.
