Note: This and the next two chapters will deal with the other couplings before the final couples are revealed in the last chapter.
Masami
Korra spun around and thrust out both of her palms. A gust of wind sent three airbenders flying out of the practice field on Air Temple Island. Tenzin stepped onto the field, holding out his arm. "Alright, that's enough for today."
Tenzin brought his arm down. "Korra, can I talk to you for a moment?"
"Fine." Korra followed Tenzin off the field. The two went to the privacy of a cliff side.
Tenzin turned around to face the avatar. "Korra, you've been aggressive ever since you've came back from the Earth Kingdom. Did your new team do something to you?"
"Yes. I mean no." Korra shut her eyes for a moment before looking away. "They all sort of confessed to me." She looked up at Tenzin. "They all want to date me and I'm not exactly sure what to do. I don't want brothers fighting over me."
"Oh, well um…" Tenzin ran his hand through his beard thoughtfully. "Perhaps you should mediate on it carefully and um…" Tenzin wasn't exactly how he should proceeded he was already having trouble with the thought that his own daughter was at the age and up until now Korra was completely focus on being the avatar so he never had to deal with this before.
"Wait, I should ask Pema she should know." Korra ran pass Tenzin.
Korra sat across from Pema in the dining hall. Korra rested her arm on the table between them, leaning forward. "So what should I do?"
"Wow, three guys I guess you hit the mother load," Pema chimed.
"But that doesn't answer my question," Korra responded.
"Well, which one do you like?"
Korra sat up straight with her legs crossed. "I don't know."
Pema smiled brightly at Korra. "That's what you should focus on. It might hurt the others a little, but they'll be even more hurt if you pick them because you're just trying to be nice."
"Thanks, Pema."
Mako stepped out of a flower shop with a bouquet of flowers in hand. He gave the beautiful array of colorful flowers a sniff. He smiled with a light in his golden eyes. "These will be perfect for-"
"Hey, Mako."
Mako turned in the direction of the voice to see Korra's best friend walking up to him. He blushed, placing the flowers behind his back. He smiled nervously at the beautiful black haired girl that looked like she could be in the movers. "Uh, hey Asami." He gave her a small wave.
Asami stopped in front of the firebender. "Who are the flowers for?"
"What flowers?"
Asami pointed behind him. "The flowers behind your back."
Mako placed his hand in his hair as he brought he flowers forward. "Oh, these…there for..."
"Help! Thief!"
The two looked across the street to see a thug take an old woman's purse, leaping onto a motorbike and speeding off.
Asami quickly scanned the road to see a parked motorbike a few feet in front of them. "Let's go!" Asami ran toward the bike with Mako following after her out of simple curiosity. Asami leaped onto the bike. Mako hopped on behind her.
Asami kicked up the break and started up the bike. A man ran out of the store next to it. "Hey, my bike."
"We'll bring it back," Asami promised the man as she started up the bike and headed down the street. Mako wrapped his free arm around Asami's waist so he wouldn't fall off. Asami quickly made it behind the thief.
The thief looked back at the two. He raised one of his fist up that shot a rock out of the road behind him.
Asami shifted to the right to avoid the rock that rose up.
The thief continued to earthbend up small pillars of rock. Asami pulled back and simply maneuvered around the rock pillars with superior skill. Asami shifted her eyes back toward Mako. "Do you think you can get a shot off?"
"Leave it to me." Mako wrapped his arm that held the flowers around Asami's waist so he could use his right hand. He held up two fingers, generating lightning in them. He leaned to the right. He stuck out his fingers, shooting off the stream.
A rock wall rose in front of them that the lightning struck, knocking it down. Asami ran through the hole in the wall. Mako generated another stream of lightning between his fingers and blasted it again that he aimed at the thief's wheel.
The bike and thief were shocked. The bike flipped over and had the man roll across the street. He let out a few grunts as he fell.
Asami turned the motorbike to the side, stopping the bike. She placed her feet down on the ground.
Asami handed the old woman back her purse. "Here you go, ma'am."
The old woman took her purse. "Thank you so much."
Asami turned around just as Mako walked up to her as he stretched out his arms. "Asami, that was amazing! I had no idea you could drive a motorbike like that."
"Well, I do run Future Industries. I have to know how to use all of the vehicles," Asami informed him.
Mako pointed at her in shock. "You're in charge of Future Industries?"
Asami giggled. "Yeah, didn't Korra ever tell you?"
Mako rubbed the side of his hair. "I guess it slipped her mind." Mako felt heat rise to his cheeks as he nervously smiled. This girl was amazing. She was beautiful, rich and knew her way around vehicles something he always had a firm interest in.
"Here, why don't you take these flowers?" Before he realized what he was doing he handed the girl the bouquet he had originally brought for Korra.
Asami took the flowers and admired them. "Thanks," she raised her head, "but didn't you get these for somebody else?"
"Nah, it's alright."
Asami looked at the flowers again. "This is really sweet. Let me repay you. How about we go out to dinner at Kwong's Cuisine?"
"I don't have any clothes for a place that fancy."
"You let me worry about that." Asami patted him on the chest. "Just show up at eight." She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. She looked back at Mako as she started to walk away. "I'll see you later." She headed off down the street.
Mako feel into a dreamy like stare with hearts floating around him with a cheesy grin on his face.
Mako who had his hands stuffed in his pockets walked up the steps to Air Temple Island after his date with Asami. Asami had provided him with some fancy clothes to wear and they found they had many things in common and had a few laughs at the restaurant and even got close in a carriage ride through Avatar Korra's Park.
Mako had changed back into his normal close before he got back to the island. He made it up the final steps to see Korra standing in the moonlight. "Korra, what are you doing out here?" The breeze carried Korra's hair to the side, making it a beautiful sight that made Mako instantly forget about Asami. Asami. The girl was talented and beautiful that had many things in common with him, but he could say the same things about Korra.
They were both amazing. It was no wonder they were friends, but Korra hadn't made up her mind. He didn't even know if Korra was interested in him while Asami clearly seem to know what she wanted. Then again she didn't have the weight of the world on her shoulders like Korra just a famous company.
Korra walked up to him. "I was worried. Your brothers and the others said they haven't seen you since this morning. Listen, I wanted to tell you-" Korra's gaze fell before she brought her lovely blue eyes up to Mako's eyes.
Mako's eyes grew gentle. "Korra, take as much time as you need." Korra looked at him confuse. "I want you to pick me, but I don't want to pressure you. So think it through before you tell me and my brothers what your choice is."
Korra looked at the firebender in amazement.
Note: Please let me know who you like together, but also please tell me what you think of the chapters as well. That will give me more confident in both your votes and who should end up with whom. Thank you until next time.
