Chapter 10 Republic city EVO Chase pt1

Air Temple Island

A giant statue of the previous Avatar stood right next to the home headquarters of the Air Nation. Rex and company were flying towards the island hopefully to get some shut eye, after many hours of flying to get there.

"Are we there yet?" "Mr. Bobo Haha it was not funny the first nine hundred and nine times. So please give me a good reason not to THROW YOU OFF INTO THE OCEAN!" "Jeez, what is the problem with little Ms Arrow here?" asked Bobo after annoying Ginora to no end for most of the trip

Ginora, Bobo, Rex, and Oppal were the only ones awake. The rest were asleep due to the long ride. Korra was using Rex as a pillow and the rest of Oppal's family where huddled together trying to stay together after the loss of their home. Rex had also had it with the chimp's constant questioning. "Bobo, please be quiet, don't make them metal duck tape you." "Kid, really after all these years you still don't get how annoying I can be." "Bobo, for the record I do, and we are finally here." said Rex with a huge smile waking Korra.

On the ground of the island laid Naga asleep and Pabu playing with her tail. At the sound of a sky bison landing she opened her eyes.

"Naga!" yelled Korra waving her arm. This got Naga very happy, so happy that she took off with Pabu other tail.

After the sky bison landed everyone was awake and started to get down to solid ground. Bobo was one of the first stretching his legs and rubbing his butt.
"Ahhh that is much better." said Bobo enjoying the feeling of standing. Which didn't last long because Naga came in hot and knocked him out of the way.

Korra hugged Naga really hard and Naga licked her in return. "Oh Naga I missed you so much." "Then what am I chopped liver?" asked Rex to which Korra responded by pulling him into the hug and Naga licked him too. "I missed you too you oversized fur ball." said Rex responding to the show of affection of Naga.

"Mom, Dad we are here and we brought Korra and plenty of company!" yelled Ikki as their parents came out to see them. Ikki hugged her dad and Meelo hugged his mom.
"I am so proud of you three." "Proud enough to give me my tats?" "No." was all Tanzin said.

"Well hello there Korra. Me and Bumjun have missed you a lot." said Bumi as he hugged Korra. "Bumi, its great to see you and Bumjun too." Bumi then took notice of Rex. "And who is this? Korra could you please tell me who this young man is?" "Oh Bumi this is Rex. He is my boyfriend." "Boyfriend!? Well hello there young man. I'm Bumi and this is Bumjun. Fair warning Korra's father is on the island be careful." was all Bumi said to Rex in a whispery voice.

Almost as in cue Tonraq, Tenzin, and Lin walked to the group. "Korra we are all happy to see you here. And this must be Rex, I thank you for helping and watching over Korra for all this time. We are also aware of what you both did at Zaofu." said Tenzin with a smile. Tonraq seemed a little angry and Lin seemed to be suspicious of Rex and his abilities.

"We are happy to be here." said Korra hugging Tenzin. Tonraq took this chance to talk to Rex and before he could say anything Rex interrupted him. "Wait." Rex then put his goggles away and closed his eyes. "Okay do it." "Sorry, what are you doing?" asked Tonraq confused. "I know I deserve a punch for not telling you the entire truth and then you found out about it by a message about me using my powers to fight an army. So just punch me and get it over with."

To Rex's surprise Tonraq only laughed for a few moments and nearly started crying. "I'm confused aren't you angry?" "Rex, you watched out for Korra for two years on your own and you saved her from a power hungry harpy. If anything I'm happy with you, also Korra wrote me and my wife a letter which explained everything about you." said Tonraq giving Rex a hug. "Just for the record Korra is a lot scarier than you." "No questions there."

Lin was talking to her family about what had happened. "Are you alright?" "Yes, yes we are Lin." "You can stay with me until we can solve this."

Korra and Tenzin were talking about the situation that had happened in Zaofu.

"I still can't believe some one has that kind of power." "Well my Rex did save us back then. Kuvira brought her whole army to greet Zaofu and nearly took Zuyin's family prisoner along with Zaofu if it had not been for Rex I could have been killed." "Nobody expected you to take her on alone nor so soon after getting better." "Still I wish I could have put up more of a fight than what I did." "Kuvira was using nannite infused earth you couldn't have done any better." said Rex joining the conversation.

Tenzin was confused by the last sentence. "Nannites?" "Yeah Mr. Arrow they are these microscopic machines that can do all sorts of things from curing all sorts of diseases to regenerating cells to turning people into EVOs to...OUCH!" Bobo never finished that sentence because Korra punched him in the arm.

"Calm down Mr. Tenzin everything will be taken care off in no time." said Rex with a reassuring smile. "In the mean time I would like Korra to show me around the city."

With that said Rex, and Korra got in contact with Korra's friends Asami and Mako and made arrangements to meet in a restaurant. Korra decided to change into her new clothes. She now wore a blue sleeveless shirt, blue pants, fingerless elbow long gloves and her normal South Pole shoes and belt. But before they left they made sure Bobo promised to behave while they were away.

Republic city restaurant

Rex was going around the city with Korra on Naga for a change since walking would have taken too long and the Rex rider would have called too much attention. It was all a good change of scenery for Rex since he was usually the one that gave Korra lifts. Rex was also enjoying the city it was sort off like New York and Beijing back in the 1920's plus the spirit wilds that were filled with spirits.

"This place looks amazing. I bet White Knight and Six would feel like home in this city." "You still miss them?" "Yeah, but I have you to keep me company." responded Rex kissing Korra on the cheek.

A couple of minutes later they arrived at the restaurant. They left Naga outside and went inside to meet up with Asami. She was a woman around Korra's age with raven balck hair, green eyes and a black suit.

"Korra its good to see you." "It good to see you too Asami." "And this must be Rex. You are exactly as Korra said you were." "Hello, nice to meet you." "Why don't we go sit down. But do you mind if I borrow Korra for a moment?" "Yeah no problem."

Korra and Asami went into the bathroom to talk while Rex walk looking for the table. Only to feel like he was being watched by several people.

"Korra, did you tell Rex about Mako?" "Calm down, I did tell him that we used to date but it ended on equal terms. He made a very goo d joke about it, completely inappropriate though." "Well, that's a relief." said Asami.

After they exchanged those words they went out and along with Rex they saw Mako. Who was wearing his bodyguard uniform with his hair all tied up.

"Korra is so good to see you." They both hugged. "Mako it is also good to see you, look at you." "Yep all uniformed up."

Before Rex could present himself to Korra's ex someone else got between the conversation. It was a snooty rich boy of God knows where.

"Hello Prince Wu heir to the throne, and this guy's boss. I bet he has told you a lot about me." "Nope not a thing." "Thankfully." said Rex quietly. "Then we have a lot to talk about." said Prince Wu putting his arm on Korra's shoulder.

Rex was two seconds away from busting out the Slam cannon and shoot this twerp to the Moon. He then remembered that he was with Korra's friends and that would not make a good impression. He was about to sit down when he noticed that there were only four spots.

"Uhm, sorry where am I suppose to sit?" "Hang on a second dear. My friend this is a private reunion so go some place else." "Oh really I didn't noticed." said Rex holding the urge of busting the BFS and the Slam cannon.

"Prince Wu this is Rex my boyfriend." said Korra with authority. This struck a nerve in Prince Wu who suddenly realized who he was talking too.

"Um, Rex as in the guy who tore Kuvira's army like they were made of toilet paper? That Rex?" "The one and only. So I'll ask again. Where is my..." "Our seats?"

They all turned to see Bobo with some take out food. With a mischievous smile he stared at the group.

"BOBO!" yelled both Rex and Korra.

"So where are we sitting?" "What are you doing here?" "You nearly broke my arm ordering me to behave in the temple, but I was never ordered to behave outside the temple." responded Bobo trying to get under the couple's skins.

Mako, Asami and Prince Wu were completely confused. "Korra why is there a talking chimp smiling like that?" "Mako, Asami this is Bobo Haha my associate. Who is going to behave." "Talking monkey, talking monkey, talking monkey." was all Wu said before passing out.

"So can we take his seat?"
