Silver

Hiroshi awoken up the day previous at the hospital after being in a coma since Amon's downfall, he was buried in the rubble at a secret hide out after it exploded. Asami accelerated through the streets, disobeying all road laws, old habits never truly die. They arrived and Asami darted at the entrance, Korra lagging behind her. Asami stormed through the doors and marched towards her dad's room. Korra, still behind Asami, was worried about her. Asami never really mentioned her father since the Equalists were taken down and now she's breaking laws and pushing people out of the way, this isn't like her. She walked up to the room where Hiroshi was recovering and she saw Asami just standing at the doorway, her hands were clenched tightly. Korra walked up to her and placed her hand on her other shoulder, a sideways hug and to give comfort. She noticed that Asami's eyes were closed tightly and her brow was tightened.

"It's ok, Asami. I'm here." Korra tightened her grip on her. Asami walked gracefully through the door and saw her father. Hiroshi was in a very weak state and could only be conscious for minutes at a time, but when he saw her daughter through the door his energy increased.

"Asami!" he said aloud, too loud in fact as he started a coughing fit.

"Dad. It's nice to see you awake again. Do you want need some water?" Asami asked with sincerity. She wasn't sure how exactly to approach her father at a time like this, but with his constant hacking, one more small minute would help her mind settle. "I'll be right back Dad." She exited the room and went to find a nurse.

Korra, still by the doorway, walked to Hiroshi and sat next to him. He was afraid of what the Avatar might do to him now, but as he stared into the eyes, he didn't see anger or hate, just sympathy.

"Hiroshi…" she started "…I'm really sorry for what that fire bender did." Hiroshi's eyes widened. "It's very unfortunate. But you are all that Asami has left. The 'street rat' she was dating left her and so did his brother. She's been toiling at Future Industries, trying to regain its fame. It took a huge hit after the media found out you were an Equalist. Things haven't been doing so well, but she's keeping it afloat, with every ounce of energy she has."

Asami was about to enter but she heard Korra speaking, she lingered behind the door, to make sure she can still hear and not be seen.

Korra placed her hand on his shoulder. "But you can't blame all the benders for the action of one. I'm the Avatar, the living symbol of bending. So take this as your example. I forgive you, Hiroshi. You were just trying to avenge your wife, and your intellect helped you tremendously. This world needs your pure mind."

Asami's father was in shock. The Avatar, the person he was solely trying to destroy with Amon, was forgiving him and accepting him.

"That being said however, the council will still file a case for your actions during the battle. And while I can't stop it, I will try to lessen their punishment." He looked up in disbelief; again, she was going to fight for him? How was this possible for a bender? "When you get well, we'll talk about this again." She paused and looked at the doorway. "You're all that she has left, it'll haunt me if I don't at least try to help you. You're her father, the only blood of the Satos remaining. It'll be a shame if we lost one.

Korra, the Avatar, the living breathing symbol of Bending was going out of her way to help save Hiroshi, a former Equalist. His heart shattered, she shot the proverbial 'silver bullet' into his heart to destroy the monster within. She smiled at him and walked back to the doorway, and Asami entered the room with a big glass of water and a very warm heart.
