AN: Hey guys sorry again about another super late chapter, I started summer classes so I have a lot on my plate. Please excuse my typos and any other problems, this is another quickly written chapter, and I only had time to read over it once, rather than my normal 4 haha.
Love you all, hope you like the chapter.
Chapter 10
"Call my parents and Asami's mom. Tell them what happened." Korra says slamming the car in park, and tossing Opal her phone. Bolin and Korra jump out of the car, Korra going to get Asami while Bolin runs to the front door to get a wheelchair. They adjust Asami in the chair, Korra kisses Asami's cheek wheeling her into the hospital and running up to the front desk.
"She's been hit in the stomach, she's pregnant, help!" The nurse pages the head OBGYN while a few nurses in the area check over Asami before the doctor arrives, and to Korra surprise:
"GRAN!"
"Korra? Asami? What happened?"
"She was hit hard in the stomach." Katara puts her stethoscope to Asami's stomach.
"One heartbeat is faint... I can't find the other one. Take her to the ER, Now!" Katara says to the nurses.
"What!? Will they be ok? Wait I have to come with them!"
"Korra please, you need to stay here, I promise I will do my best for them, have you called your parents? And Asami's?" Korra nods. "You have to be here to tell them what happened. Alright?"
"...Alright." Korra sighs.
"You're friends are here with you, it'll be ok Korra." Korra sits in the waiting room, head in her hands praying to anything and everything that all three of them will be ok. The waiting room doesn't help, the bland white walls with a pale blue strip running through it, the worn light brown coffee tables with baby magazines littering it, and the phones ringing constantly are increasing Korra's anxiety. Opal and Bolin sit on either side of her holding her tightly in a small group hug they held her for about 45 minutes before Korra's parents showed up.
"Oh Korra."
"Hey mom, Gran is in there with her." Korra looks up as her mom hugs her tightly.
"It'll be ok, she will make sure of it."
"I know."
They sit there for two hours not moving, not talking, everyone on the edge of their seats. When they hear a pair of heels quickly coming their way.
"Korra! Korra, what happened!?" Yasuko comes up to them, Korra stands and motions to another other waiting room a bit down the hall, where they can talk privately.
"- and now Asami is badly hurt, I don't even know how our kids are doing."
"Brass knuckles!? Is that the girl you were seeing that did this?"
"Yes I broke up with her and she took it out on Asami. All of this is my fault, I wasn't able to protect them." Asami's mom hugs her tightly, tearing up.
"Hon, it isn't your fault. I know my daughter, she's a fighter." Korra nods in agreement.
"Where's Hiroshi?" Korra finally asks, Yasuko rolls her eyes.
"He wouldn't even listen to what I had to say, so he doesn't know about Asami and I didn't have time to deal with him so I rushed over here. When I hear more about Asami I will send him a message." Korra sighs and shakes her head at the disappointing information.
Korra and Asami's mom rejoin the others, another 2 hours tick by slow and painfully. Finally Katara walks over to the group, still in her surgical garb.
"Well?!" Korra demands seeing a sorrowful look cross Katara's face.
"They are all alive." They all release the breath they were holding, "However."
"Uh oh." Bolin says nervously.
"Asami was in worse condition than expected. The blow to her stomach caused a tear in her stomach and diaphragm as well as to the uterine wall. Asami was bleeding internally which caused some damage. There is a chance she will not wake up, however there is a very, very small chance of that happening. Thankfully you got her here with minutes to spare."
"Oh my god." Yasuko covers her mouth, Korra's mom walks over patting Yasuko's back.
"When can I see her?"
"You can go see her now, we've finished with the surgery. However, she is in a medically induced coma." Katara says leading the group to Asami's room. "Before I let you in, I want to prepare you for what you're about to see. Asami couldn't breathe on her own due to the damage her diaphragm suffered, so we had to feed a tube into her lungs so she can breathe." They all nod, Katara enters the room and stands next to Asami as the rest trickle in.
The room is white, too white. It's almost like entering heaven or something but instead of relief Korra feels dread. There is a large open window, allowing in a soft audible breeze, slightly covering up the soft rhythm of the heart monitor. Korra finally wills herself to look at the white bed where Asami is lying under a thin white blanket, with a medium sized tube leading from her mouth held by medical tape. Korra walks over to Asami, kissing her stomach and then her cheek, grabbing her hand gingerly almost afraid she's break her. Asami looked so pale, she has dark circles under her eyes. Such a strong woman looking so frail, to Korra is absolutely heart breaking. Asami's mother walks over to the other side of Asami kissing her forehead before releasing every tear she held back. Korra's mom and dad walk her out of the room, with Bolin and Opal following close behind after giving Asami some encouraging words.
"Asami, I don't know if you can hear me, but I want you to know that I need you. I need you to come back to me. I need you by my side to raise our children, I need my best friend back. But most of all I need you because I love you, and I don't want to spend another moment without you. I was foolish for not seeing it sooner, but you are my rock, my happiness, my everything. I can't breathe without you, I can't laugh or smile without you, I can't live without you. So please, please come back to me. I love you, I love you, Asami, I love you." Korra says kissing each one of Asami's fingers, placing them on her cheek, like Asami usually does to comfort her. She sits there in ear ringing silence for some time before tucking the covers in tighter around her. She kisses Asami's unresponsive lips, then her stomach murmuring her love to her children before leaving to meet up with everyone in the waiting room.
"HEY!" A yell assaults Korra's ears when she enters the waiting room.
"What Mako." Korra says tiredly.
"Is she alright!? What's going on!?"
"She'll be fine. Please stop yelling." Korra says keeping her answers short.
"Yeah bro, no thanks to you holding us up, she could lose her children!"
"Wait what?"
"Goddamn it Bolin" Opal says smacking his arm.
"Ow! I thought he knew! I'm sorry!"
"Are you telling me she's pregnant!?"
"Mako, yes she is, when Kuvira punched her it tore her stomach, diaphragm, and uterus. She started to bleed internally." Korra says getting annoyed.
"But Asami and I didn't have sex, I would remember, unless I was really drunk."
"Mako they're mine."
"WHAT!?" Mako grabs Korra by her shirt and slams her into the wall, but Korra makes no effort to fight back. "You owe me an explanation!"
"Bro now isn't the time!" Bolin says grabbing Mako's arm.
"Yes now is the time, she stole my girlfriend and impregnated her with her bastard children!" Korra can take any insult about her but anyone insults or fucks with her kids, no mercy or forgiveness will be found. Korra growls violently, drowning out their friends' cries for Mako to let Korra go. Korra roars in Mako's face throwing him into the coffee table. Just like before everyone is disoriented by Korra's roar, even her father who is an Alpha took some steps back in shock. While everyone around is coming to their senses Korra gives Mako the same treatment she had done before with Kuvira. Korra drops Mako to the ground and kicks him repeatedly. Finally Bolin grabs her trying to hold her back like last time, this time he can barely keep her from killing him, but Korra easily manages to throw him off of her. It takes both Bolin and Tonraq to get her off of him. Tonraq holds her up in a back breaking hug, she continues to growl and snap in Mako's direction.
"Korra!" Korra stops upon hearing Senna's stern voice. Tonraq puts her in a chair far away from Mako as possible. Senna kneels down in front of Korra, they say nothing, just make eye contact. All of Korra's bottled up fear, sadness and anger comes pouring out she pulls her mother into a hug and finally starts to cry. "What do I do, mom? What can I-" Korra says getting choked up punching a hole in the wall behind her. Her mom shushes her comfortingly, rocking her.
"She will be alright, the kids are strong, they will make it through this and so will you. I know you are scared. It's okay to be, because your family and friends are here with you Korra." Senna, Opal and Yasuko all wrap their arms around Korra, refusing to let go.
"Nurse, a little help here?" Tonraq says picking up Mako, "Bolin help me with your brother here. Good thing we are in a hospital." Tonraq says making Bolin chuckle a bit, as they place Mako on a gurney to be admitted.
AN:I know I will probably get comments saying I'm resolving this too fast, but I want this story to kind of be "slice of life-ish" Regardless, I hope you liked it and I hope to get another chapter out soon, it's already written just needs to be edited!
