Asami

We followed the path that Fu had shown us for half a day before we found a spot to make camp it was right next to a waterfall that's waters flowed up instead of down. Tenzin had gone into the woods to search for food leaving me alone with Korra. With her sight returned Korra was starting to act like her usual self which made me smile.

I look up from making a hammock for the night and notice that Korra wasn't there

"Korra?" I say aloud looking around

I get a bit worried and start to look around for any signs were she had gone off to, I see some footprints leading to the waterfall but they stop just at the water's edge. I look down at my reflection in the water but fail to notice the shadow until it was too late.

Within moments I find myself on my back as a very wet Korra sprang from beneath the water and pinned me on my back as she claimed my mouth in her own. I fell her tongue probe my mouth and decide to let our tongues battle in out as we made out. Before we start to complete loose ourselves in the moment a voice interrupts us

"If it's not too much trouble could you two wait until nightfall to be intimate?" we hear Tenzin state as we quickly detach in embarrassment at being caught in the act.

I look up to see Tenzin covered in a purple slime

"What happened to you?" Korra asks making her way off me

Tenzin looks down at his robes before he sighs

"I tried to pick some fruit from a tree but when I did it exploded, it seems the spirit world is a very strange place."

We manage to find some food that was familiar to us and sit by a fire Tenzin had made by rubbing some sticks together. After that we retire for the night and Korra and I climb into our hammock and call it a night.

I the morning we set out on the path again but after two hours we start to run into some spirits. Some are just flying about in the sky while some just stole glances at us while we passed.

Within a couple of hours of following the path we see a great temple like building attached to the side of a mountain.

"Is that the library?"

"Yes it matches some drawings I found in the temple, but be warned Wan Shi Tong was said to be extremely proactive to his books and his rules."

Another hour of walking and we find ourselves at a giant stone door that takes all three of us to get it open. We walk along a dimly lit path until we come to a giant walkway. I look around and every direct I look I see shelves and shelves overflowing with books of all shapes and sizes.

"Wow I've never seen this many books in my life."

Korra says as she looks around.

Before we start to look for the information a great shadow stretches down and we look up to see a giant owl like creature perched on a railing looking down on us near the very top of ceiling. It spreads it giant black wings and flies down swooping underneath our walkway before circling back and landing in front of us.

"And you never will again, my library is the greatest source of knowledge in existence and I will not have humans ruining it leave now and don't come back."

Tenzin steps forward and bows

"Great Wan Shi Tong forgive our intrusion but we come here seeking a way to restore avatar Korras inner balance."

Wans head turns to stare at Korra his eyes never blinking

"The last time the avatar set foot in my library he broke my rule about using my knowledge to harm, why should I help you?"

I do my best to restrain Korra knowing that she would have gone on a rampage against Wan If I didn't.

"Because if you don't allow us to stop Koh now he will throw both words out of balance." I say after a moment

"What happens outside of my library is of no concern of mine."

This time I decide to go a different way

"Very well come on Korra, Tenzin let's do as he says and get out"

"What?" they both say looking at me strangely

"Well it's obvious that he doesn't have the information we need so I guess we'll have to go to the other library instead."

At hearing this Wan tilts his head to the side before shifting it back.

"Other library?"

I take Korra and Tenzin's hand and start to walk away giving them a wink which they nod they start to understand what I was doing

"Of course Asami the other library would be a much better palace to get our information"

Wan flies up and lands ahead of us blocking our path

"Impossible there is no better library than mine for I am Wan Shi Tong the one who know ten thousand things."

"Well if you don't have the information on Koh I guess that means you only know nine thousand nine hundred and nine, but don't let that get you down."

Wan lets out an extremely loud shriek as his form changes into a more serpent like form.

"I'll prove that my library is the greatest! I show you that I have the information that no other has!" he says as he flies down a path of bookshelves.

After a moment I let out a breath I hadn't know I has holding before Korra pulls me into a hug.

"That was amazing Asami"

"Yes very well done I didn't think it was possible to trick Wan into helping us"

"Yeah well it occurred to me that he was probably extremely prideful and so it occurred to me that if I said he didn't have the information he would prove it."

After I said that a fox comes running from the darkness with a book in its mouth he stops in front of us and sets it down. Tenzin picks it up and reads the title

"Koh the face stealer, a spirit as old as the spirit world itself"

The fox starts to walk away but turns to us.

"Nice job in tricking the boss, he's a real jerk to humans but I'd get out now he may be prideful but he's quick to realize when he's been tricked"

A shriek comes from the darkness to emphasize his point and I turn to Korra and Tenzin

"Run?"

"Yeah…Run!"
