I OWN NOTHING; I DO NOT OWN THE LEGEND OF KORRA OR AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER.
Chapter 10-
*With Toph, Suki and Lin.*
"What was that crash noise?" Toph asks with a hint of worry in her voice.
Suki and Lin look around but don't see anything unusual.
Lin turns to Toph and shrugs her shoulders, "There's nothing I could see from here. I just think that maybe someone dropped something or maybe-"
Before Lin could finish, two of her metalbending policemen come running in, panting.
"Ch- chief Beifong, Equalist! Equalist are attacking the police department! There in the back!"
Lin's eyes widen but she quickly wipes the worry off her face, "Oh no they aren't. They are not attacking my police department without getting through me first."
Lin, Suki and Toph run to the back of the department and towards where the crash was.
After running through some long hallways, they make their way to a metal cell where they are attacking.
Suki gasps when she sees that the Equalist are attacking the cell where her boyfriend and Bolin are being held.
Bolin and Sokka were both still . . . not themselves so they didn't even try to fight back.
Lin immediately opens the cell and fights with the Equalist; Suki and Toph fighting alongside her.
While they were fighting, Suki manages to yell out a question to Lin, "So, these are Equalist?"
Suki hits one of the Equalist on his neck then jumps in the air and kicks him in the face making him fall to the ground, bleeding.
Lin smirks at what she just saw, "Yeah, they work for Amon."
Lin earthbends three Equalist to the wall and then she rips the metal off the cell and ties them up with it.
Toph could feel what Lin did and it actually makes her smile. While Toph is fighting four Equalist, she starts to think to herself, 'Huh, look at that. My uh- daughter . . . could metalbend, not bad. I wonder who else can metalbend . . .'
Toph earthbends two Equalist to the floor but before she could get the other two, one chi- blocks her arm and the other electrocutes her in the side.
"Ahh!" Toph cries out as she slams against the cold floor.
Lin turns around to see what just happened to her mother and she starts to get mad as anything, "You will regret that. Tell Amon, give me his best shot."
Lin opens up a secret apartment that was in the middle of the cell and under a broken title.
Inside the secret apartment, there was a bunch of rocks so they could use their earthbending with real rocks; not little pebbles that are in the corner of the cell.
Lin lifts two large rocks and swings them at two Equalists, one rock hit one's stomach and the other rock hits the other Equalist's head.
Suki helps Toph up then she jumps in the air, spins, and then kicks two more Equalists on their heads.
Sokka and Bolin were still lying on the ground, still laughing and not themselves.
After an Equalist hits Toph in her stomach she huffs, "How many more are there?!"
Lin gets hit in the middle of her back, "Ugh, you tell me!"
Toph feels the ground and moans, "At least twelve more."
Lin's eyebrows knit together, "How do you know that?"
Toph kicks three rocks at an Equalist, "I could see it- well, more like feel it with my feet."
Lin nods then metalbends four Equalist.
Suki looks through the large opening they made in their wall and sees a large air blimp with a bunch of Equalist on it.
Suki takes a deep breath then jumps out of the hole and falls on top of the blimp.
Lin gasps, "What on earth is she doing?!"
Toph smirks as she fights three other Equalists surrounding her, "Kicking some Equalist butts."
Suki lands on the blimp and cracks her knuckles, "Alright Equalist, let's see how strong you guys really are."
Suki takes the small, sharp, pointy rock out of her pocket and digs it in the blimp making it pop and fall to the ground.
Suki didn't have enough time so she couldn't jump off the blimp so instead she went down with it.
*With Asami, Zuko and Uncle.*
The lightening went right passed Zuko and as Zuko turns around he could see the lightening strike Asami and hit her right in the upper stomach.
Zuko gasps and his golden eyes go wide, "Asami!"
Uncle turns to the Triple Threat and shakes his head.
Zuko looks at his Uncle and his Uncle nods. Zuko throws his fist which was burning with bright, hot fire right at Two Toed Ping which knocks him off his feet.
Zuko runs to Asami and bends down next to her. He grabs her hand with one hand and with the other he cups her cheek, "Asami, Asami can you hear me? Come on, open your eyes, wake up . . ."
Asami doesn't respond which makes Zuko slam his fist on the ground and lifts Asami's shirt to see how bad the lightening mark is.
While Zuko was checking the lightening mark, Uncle was fighting the three gangsters.
Rebecca knees down and helps Zuko and Asami in any way she could.
Uncle was throwing hot flames out of his foot and fists and completely beating the Triple Threats.
Uncle grabs the waterbender's wrist and throws him out the glass window then turns around and fights the firebender and earthbender.
Uncle smirks when the two gangsters try to tag team him but miss him and they both throw themselves over the counter and fall to the floor.
"Do you have any rope by any chance?" Uncle asks Rebecca, keeping a smile on his face.
Rebecca hesitates but then shakes her head, "Not that I know of."
By the time Rebecca answers Uncle, the Triple Threats are already running out the door and into their car, driving away as fast as they could.
Uncle sighs and walks next to Zuko. He bends down and looks at the unconscious Asami.
"How is she holding up?" Uncle breaks the silent.
Zuko shakes his head, "It's bad . . . I could tell."
Rebecca bites her lip then looks up at Zuko and into his golden eyes, "Iroh and I will watch and take care of Asami, you get some help."
Zuko was about to protest but then nods in defeat when she gives him a look.
Zuko stands up, looks at Asami one more time then runs out the door.
*With Korra.*
Korra was walking in a dark alley by herself with silent tears streaming down her face.
She has her arms crossed over her chest and she was looking down at the wet ground.
The sun was starting to set and she knew that there two hours were almost up but she had no clue where she was and didn't really care at this point.
Korra looks up at the sky and sees small rain drops falling down from the dark, black and gray clouds.
Korra sighs and squeezes her eyes shut; trying to stop the tears from falling but it was no use.
She opens them slowly and she allows the hot tears to roll down her cold face while mixing with the rain drops.
The alley was dark and cold. Even if it were still light outside, in the alley you wouldn't be able to see it because of the tall buildings.
Korra's body shivers and her legs are shaking.
While Korra was walking, she wasn't watching where she was walking and slipped in a small puddle; making her fall face first on the cold floor.
"Ughh!" Korra moans as she rolls her body out of the muddy puddle and sits on her knees.
Korra couldn't take it anymore. She kept thinking of how Mako and her left off, the things she said to him, the things he said to her . . . the things he said to her about how he feels . . . he thinks she's annoying . . . the worst Avatar.
Korra covers her face with her muddy hands and cries into them. She cries and cries as she shakes her head. The rain was starting to pour down and was soaking her.
While Korra was crying, she didn't notice that someone was walking towards her and standing over her.
Finally, Korra hears someone cough and she immediately looks up and sees a woman, somewhat the same age as her standing over her.
Korra stares at the girl with her now small blue- grayish eyes. The woman smiles down at Korra and crosses her arms, "You need some help . . . Avatar?"
Korra eyes the woman and her eyebrows knit together, "Who are you?"
"You don't recognize me? That's a shame. I'm surprised, I would of thought that your 'new friends' would of shown you a picture of me or something or at least described me." The woman mocks a frown.
Korra bites her lip, "I am not going to ask again . . . who are you and what do you want?"
The woman sighs and frowns, "Aw, you're no fun. Well, since you just want to jump to the point here, fine."
The woman bends down so she is eye level with Korra and a large smirk appears on her red lips.
She had jet black hair that was in a bun, her skin was pale, her eyes were gold and shining in the dark, her finger-nails were long and sharp just like a nail, and her lips were wide and a dark red. She was wearing a black short- sleeve shirt, her pants are black and her shoes were black with a red line on them.
The woman licks her dark red lips and sighs, "Well, let's start with names, shall we? My name is . . . Azula."
Korra's eyes widen in fear, she knows that name. She knows what she did in the past and she knows she's dangerous and she can't take her.
Azula laughs at the fear that was in Korra's eyes, "I'm guessing you heard of me?"
Korra goes to stand up but Azula takes her long sharp nails and digs them into Korra's right leg.
Korra screams but is shortly cut off when Azula takes her by the throat and digs her nails into the skin, "I wouldn't scream if I was you. So, now where were we? Oh, I know. You see, my friend, Amon, thought it would be a good idea for me to finally meet the 'oh so great' Avatar Korra. I'm sure you've heard of him . . . yes? You know, Avatar Korra, I hope you know that I am not someone to pick a fight with. I would wipe you off this world in seconds. You and your little friends don't stand a chance and Aang and my brother, Zu- Zu knows that. They might have defeated me once and put me in jail but I can assure you that will NEVER happen again."
Azula keeps her nails digging into Korra's neck but Korra manages to ask her a simply question, "Zu- Zu?"
Azula starts to get annoyed that that was the only thing Korra even questioned or cared about.
"Oh, this is how you are gonna be?" Azula yells as she throws Korra against the alley wall.
"Ahh! Ugh . . . you know, I've had it with you." Korra mumbles under her breath as she rubs the back of her head.
As Azula walks towards her with a large flame in her hand, Korra smirks.
Right before Azula throws her fire at Korra, Korra picks up a rock that was lying on the ground and throws it at Azula's head.
"Ahh!" Azula screeches the air as she slams against the cold, wet floor.
Azula shakes her head as she sees Korra running towards the streets and out of the alley.
Azula stands up and crosses her arms . . .
Azula watches Korra and then what her plan was finally happens.
Right before Korra leaps out of the alley and into the streets, there was an invisible wire that shocks Korra.
"Ahhhh! Oww!" Korra screams as loudest as she can as her body goes numb and her body hits against the cold, wet ground.
Azula slowly walks towards Korra with a huge smirk on her red lips.
"Not so fast, Korra. But, if that's the game you want to play . . . let's play."
Azula makes the flames reappear in her hands, she bends down slowly and places her burning hands on Korra's stomach.
All Korra could do now was scream, her body was numb she couldn't fight anymore. The warm tears run down her cheeks as Azula continues to burn her stomach.
After Azula was done with that, she puts her hot hands that has the flames burning on Korra's left cheek and then to her neck where there were marks from Azula's nails that were digging in her skin.
Korra was sobbing and pleading for Azula to stop with the torture but it was no use. Azula had no intentions of stopping . . . any time soon.
Azula kicks Korra in the stomach and then lets the fire out of her foot and slam against Korra's leg. She takes her nails and digs them in her left ankle and works her way up to her left shoulder. The nail marks were deep; they were even deep enough to make them bleed.
Azula kicks Korra's helpless body a bunch of times. Even though Korra's body was completely numb, she could feel the pain run through her, she could feel the black and blue bruises forming all over her body, she could feel the kicks that were hitting her just about everywhere, she could feel the burn marks forming on her tan skin. Korra could even feel the pebbles that are pressing against her skin as she lies on the wet ground. She could feel the sharp dangerous nails ripping her skin apart and digging them into her flesh. Even though all of this pain was running through her, the only thing she begs for now was not for Azula to stop or even for the pain to disappear . . . she begs for one thing. Well, it was more like . . . one person. Mako.
Korra could no longer keep her blue eye open. She could no longer think straight anymore. Azula was throwing fire punches and fire kicks at her left and right and she couldn't handle it anymore. Korra begs and whispers to herself for Mako. Korra thinks of Mako looking for her in the rain and calling out to her. He passes an empty alley but when he hears a small cry for help . . . he comes running.
He sees Azula torturing her . . . he sees her hurting his love and he fights fire with fire. He throws her against a wall and bends down to check on his only love. He picks her up in his strong arms and runs out of the alley. He saves her. That doesn't happen though.
Instead of all of that happening, Azula bends down and smiles at the beaten up Avatar.
Azula puts her lip so close to Korra's ear that Korra could feel the cold, evil breath against her head.
"Give me your best shot Korra. Oh, and tell Avatar Aang . . . I'll be waiting for whatever plan and whatever they try to use against me. I'll be waiting to see you again. Hey, maybe even your friends will come with you to say hi. Oh, and by the way, Amon says hello and he'll be paying you a visit soon." Azula laughs at the last part then she grabs Korra's hair, making Korra face her.
Korra looks at her crazy, hurtful, golden eyes. Azula makes two flames on her hands and she places them slowly on Korra's cheeks. She lets them burn there and then she stands up.
Azula gives her a disgusted look, "Pathetic"
Azula kicks Korra in the stomach one last time then turns around and walks away like nothing ever happened.
The rain starts to get harder and it starts to pour. The rain falls on top of Korra's helpless body and mixes with the pool of blood under her.
Korra couldn't move and she is barely breathing. She opens her ocean blue eyes and looks up but there was no one to help her. No one was anywhere near her.
Korra lets the tears run down her face and she lowers her head. She cries and cries and finally she doesn't have the strength to stay awake.
Right before she blacks out, she whispers to herself . . . or to anyone who could hear her, "Ma- Mako . . . I love you . . ."
Finally, Korra's body goes completely numb and her head falls to the wet ground. Blood, water and mud all mix around her body. Blood pours from her forehead and down her face. Only one good thing happens to Korra at this point . . . the pain is finally gone.
*With Mako.*
Mako was searching the entire city for Korra. He hated how they left off and he needed to find her.
Mako was searching every street, every corner, every shop and every alley.
He sighs when he still doesn't find her but he doesn't stop looking.
There was only one alley left to look so he walks towards it.
He walks a little bit into the alley and when he sees nothing he goes to turn around but he thinks he sees a person's shoe.
He squints his eyes to try to see it better; it looks like a human leg to him.
He starts to walk towards it but stops when someone yells his name.
"Mako! Thank spirits I found someone!" When Mako turns around he sees Zuko waving his hand and yelling out to him.
Mako's eyebrows knit together, confused, "Zuko? What's wrong?"
Zuko shakes his head, "As- Asami . . . she- she-"
Now it was Mako's turn to shake his head, "She- she what?"
"I was fighting with some gang called The Triple Threat and the- the firebender created lightening and- and-"
Zuko looks down and a small tear runs down his cheek, "He hit Asami with the lighting. She needs help, she's badly hurt, Mako."
Mako's amber eyes open wide with fear and shock at the news. He stares at Zuko for a few seconds then he stutters his words, "Wh- where i- is she?!"
Zuko cocks his head towards out of the alley to show Mako to follow him.
Zuko runs off, out of the alley and back to the tea shop with Mako following.
What Mako didn't know that Korra was laying on the ground in that same alley he was just in . . . those human leg was hers. That shoe was hers. Now Mako left the alley . . . he left Korra and now Korra has no one. She's alone in a dark alley with no one to help her. No one knows she's even there . . . Mako was so close but now he is gone. Korra is left to fend for herself. Korra was now beaten, bruised, bloody, destroyed, cold, unconscious and alone.
Okaaay that's it for chapter 10! :D
I hope you liked it, thank you for reading! :)
Please review/comment and let me know what you thought of it, thanks!
So, what will happen to Korra now? Mako was so close but he left to go see if Asami was okay.
Did Suki make the fall okay? Did she make it?
What's next for Azula and Amon's plan? What else do they have stored for the two Avatars and their friends?
You'll find out next chapter! ^_^
