Hi guys!

OK I would like to apologize for any typos in the past chapters, I will make sure there are none in this one :D

Enjoy


"Wait a second, let me get this straight. The boy you ran into on the street, he's the kid your tutoring?" Korra asked, practicing her high kick.

"Yea, it was really weird." Jinora answered. "But it wasn't bad; it was kinda nice actually."

"So did you get his contact info; you gonna hang out with him?"

"Korra! I barely know the guy. Plus I only gave him my number for tutoring reasons!"

"Sure... you gotta be brave, put yourself out there."Jinora and Korra were practicing there forms. Each of them kicking and punching while staying synchronized. Each of them shouting out after they had finished.

"That was great. Just make sure you keep your feet close to each other. It strengthens your stance." Korra advised, taking off her helmet.

"Kay." Jinora nodded, taking a sip of her water. "SO...how's it going with Mako and Asami? Do you know what you're gonna do?" Korra's expression turned from happy, to grave.

"I don't know. I don't think I'm gonna do anything. I'll get over it... eventually."

"Excuse me?!" Jinora laughed. "What happened to being brave and putting yourself out there."

"Its different. He's my best friend's boyfriend. I can't just say 'Hey I like you, I think we're meant to be!' That's not weird at all!"

"I would understand if he was just some normal guy. But he's not, he's special to you. I can tell."

"Even if he is special, I can't steal my best friend's boyfriend!"

"Well, then you gotta get your mind off him, doesn't he have a cute brother or something? In the book I'm reading, the heroine, dates the brother of her crush. And she ends up falling in love with the brother, and getting over the guy."

"Thanks Jinora, but I don't think that'll work for me, plus I don't even know if he has a brother."

"Just be his friend then! Why don't you spend time with him, like in a not creepy way." Jinora laughed. "Too bad you can't just join the police force." At hearing this, Korra looked up at her.

"Jinora you're a genius!" Korra stood up, smiling.

"No, Korra I didn't actually mean that!" Jinora grabbed her arm.

"Yea but it was so smart! And I'm taking your advice!" Korra ran inside.

"Korra! you can't... oh, what have I done!"


"Bolin! Mako! I'm home!" Kai slammed the front door. As he walked further into the little house, he was surprised to hear something he's really never encountered since he moved there... silence. "Bolin! Mako! Where are you guys?!" Kai dropped his bag on the floor, and walked towards the kitchen cautiously, as he heard faint voices. Slowly He peeked his around the corner, only to see Bolin and Mako, they were hunched over a bunch of papers, with worried looks on their faces.

"Dude, how the heck are we gonna..." Bolin started in a concerned voice.

"I'll work overtime."

"No Mako. I gotta get a job."

"Bo, you need to finish school. Then we might actually have a chance to-" Mako's eyes caught a pair of green eyes staring around the corner, then suddenly vanish.

Kai ran up to his room, trying to forget everything he just heard. He hated not knowing things, he hated change. It was just like when he was a kid, he had to be strong, he had to find his happy place. He felt around in his pockets until he pulled out the small watch. When he pulled the clasp, it opened revealing the small clock. but on the other side, there was a picture. A christmas picture from 2004, the last christmas he had with them. His Mother had huge green eyes, just like him, but he had his father's brown hair. Soon he found himself on the rooftop, staring out into space. Slowly, the sun began to set, the sky filled with stars, and Kai fell asleep, the watch still clenched tightly in his hand.


"Ok lets start with the basics?" What is a variable?" Jinora asked Kai. They were in the library studying, just them... and algebra.

"A symbol for an unknown number?"

"Yes! When you answer a question, be confident, don't doubt yourself." Jinora smiled, causing him to blush a bright red. After a half an hour, Kai was almost falling asleep."

"Kai? Negative exponents? Kai are you falling asleep?" Jinora playfully puched him, making him jolt awake.

''I'm awake!" He rubbed his eyes. "Can we take a break?"

"Kai..." Jinora crossed her arms, inspiring him to give her the puppy dog eyes. "really?"

"Oh come on! How much math can one person take before dying?!" He comically waved his hands in the air.

"Haha, we can take a few minutes break." She finally gave in.

"Yes." Kai put his feet on the table, While Jinora reached into her bag for her water. "So tell me about yourself." Kai said, sounding like a talk show host.

"Haha, well I've got three siblings, an overprotective dad, and a very interesting kinda big sister. What about you, do you have any siblings?"

"Nope." Kai, sighed taking his feet off the table. "My parents were killed in a car accident when I was little. I've been in the foster system ever since." He looked at the floor, his eyes huge and almost teary.

"oh I'm so sorry." Jinora looked at her feet.

"Its ok, I've got to kinda big brothers. Mako and Bolin." Kai laughed.

"Mako?!" Jinora almost spit out her water. "Black hair, brown eyes, really serious all the time?"

"Yea?"

"Let me guess, he's a cop?"

"Yea, how did you know. Do you know him?"

"Haha, you could say that. He's my kinda big sister Korra's best friend's boyfriend. He's also Korra's friend, kinda."

"Wow, small world." Kai laughed.

"Yea," Jinora blushed with excitement. They talked and talked, and before they knew it, it was six o' clock.

"Haha Meelo sounds... interesting." Kai laughed.

"Yea, I think that's the nicest way to word it." Jinora smiled, looking to the clock. "Oh gosh! Its six. So much for few minutes." Jinora laughed, standing up.

"Its ok, it was fun." Kai started packing up his books.

"Tomorrow, same time?"

"Yea." Jinora smiled, she stood up to leave.

"Jinora wait!" She turned her head to see him. "Thanks." He said, cooly, making her blush furiously. Then she picked herself up and started walking out of the library, trying to conceal her red face. Kai sat there for a second, completely mesmerized and caught in the moment.

"Kai!" Kai snapped out of it. Bolin was shouting at him, causing a barrage of "SSSHHH!"

"Dude, I've been calling you for the past ten minutes. Who's the girl?" Bolin smiled, he loved getting into Kai's business.

"A girl? There's no girl!"

"Dude I saw her walk out of here." Bolin crossed his arms.

"Fine, its Jinora, my tutor." Kai blushed, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand.

"Ooooo, Kai's got a girlfriend!" Bolin laughed, one again followed by "SHHHH!".

"She's not my girlfriend. She's just a friend." Kai squeaked.

"Ok ok, whatever you say little bro." Bolin said, only to appease him.


So?

Ok I know it was very slightly hinted, but I think you can catch what's going on with Bolin and Mako, and how that might affect Kai. Next chapter, more character introductions, and Korra joins the Police force... that's gonna be interesting.

Review please! I'd love to know what you think! :D
