-Episode 10 left me...what's the word? Depressed? Baffled? Something like that. All I could say was, "What the-"

Next week on Legend Of Korra...

"WHAT THE?"

As you can see, I am utterly saddened by what just happened. I mean, are they trying to get rid of Lin's badassery? *ahem* But it was sort of her way of saying, Tenzin, this is what you're missing out on.' At least Asami may have the chance of being with Iroh, and there may be some Makorra! Finally. -Back to this story. I'll try to make the next few chapters have good endings relating to episode ten, but no promises about the last one. I read over the first couple of chapters and found that some don't make any sense. I'll be correcting and spell checking.

Korra's POV

I grasped Mako's hand as we made our way through the winding hallways. They were unusually empty, though. So where were the other air acolytes? Did they suddenly move to a different part of the temple? I guess they did, because everything seemed to be silent. I slid open the door to Pema's room to hear the sound of a newborn.

Mako and I moved through the crowd until we stood at the end of the bed where Pema was laying. I could see a cute baby boy with shimmering green eyes. "What'd you name him?" I inquired.

Tenzin couldn't hide the fatherly smile on his face, "Rohan."

The kids dragged in all of the toys we bought for him earlier, proving to be a struggle. Pema thanked, "You kids were really thoughtful."

Ikki gently rubbed Rohan's chin, something that made him smile. Everyone in the room silenced for a moment, grateful that something nice occurred for once. We sat there for a while until a loud thump and boom made the room shake. Rohan's eyes were tearing up and started crying. Two and three more thumps were heard, almost like footsteps. Tenzin moved the curtains aside to reveal the window of a mecha tank in front of us.

Bei Fong ushered Pema and the kids out of the room, seconds before the roof was smashed by the metal claw. The two acolytes ran out, as my friends and I got into a ready stance. The mecha tank took no action, just standing still. The equalist inside was running away as I muttered, "Coward."

Mako reported, "Not so fast." He pointed to where the man was heading to, an Equalist airship. A large wire shot out, allowing them to use it as a zipline. No way were these guys taking over the island. I wouldn't let them.

Before Mako could stop me, I hoisted myself on the top of the roof and prepared to stop them from getting any closer. The Lieutenant was the first to land, his kali sticks electrified. As he spotted me, I summoned two streams of water and kicked it towards him with a perfect backflip. It definitely hit him, only knocking him back ten feet. Then my mind drifted back to when they attacked the arena.

So I just had to wait until his kali sticks were lit up, and attack with water to shock him. He charged, stabbing in every direction-missing me by an inch. The icicles I had impaled his arm, failing to delay him. Two chi-blockers jabbed my arm, and I got rid of them with two fire blasts from my feet. My chance came as the Lieutenant wore a sly grin on his face, sparks igniting from his weapon.

Using the moves I used in probending and airbending, I twirled and dodged his attacks. On my last cartwheel, my hand got cut with a rock. It didn't hurt much, but he used my distraction and kicked me in the stomach, making me fall back. He was going to electrocute me; but the thing he didn't expect was that I was holding two orbs of water behind my back. At the right moment, I threw the element at him, forming them into streams.

The stream overturned his arm to make the kali sticks face him, and I gave a lunge which commanded the water to make him shock himself. I did a victory jump when he toppled.

Naga came barking, but just a few seconds late. Mako hollered, "Korra! What're you doing? You could've gotten killed!"

I snapped, "I beat the Lieutenant, that's what! And where were you, anyway?"

He sighed, "I was about to go after you, but we needed to help everyone get out."

"-So, where are they now?"

He showed me to the courtyard, flooding with panicked people. I held my fingers out to my mouth and blew a loud whistle, something Naga was used to. The people froze, hoping that I would bring good news. Tenzin patted my shoulder, lifting his own hand, "Please, stay calm! We will evacuate the island immediately! Board a sky bison and split up so that they cannot follow!"

This left me skeptical. Does he seriously want us to leave? "Tenzin, I'm not giving up! I'm staying!"

He informed, "I don't want you to give up. Just for now, you and your friends have to flee from Republic City. Meet up with us back at the South Pole. The United Forces will be arriving soon. By the time we come back, we'll be prepared and have our allies with us. Okay?"

I reluctantly nodded as I watched the remaining acolytes get on their sky bison. Mako and I sat on Naga's saddle. I hissed, "Naga, don't throw us off this time. I know you can carry four people."

The polar bear-dog grumbled, allowing Bolin and Asami to board. Tenzin and Pema were to travel with the airbender kids. With Lin, Katara and the Council kids on another sky bison. Another airship was spotted, releasing dozens of Equalists. Naga sprang into the cold water of Yue Bay, with Korra creating a bubble around them for air. It didn't take them long to reach the outskirts of the city.

Up in the sky, a flurry of white fur and brown spots appeared, the bison all pretending to go in different directions. But they all would eventually meet back up in the South Pole. The second airship struck the island with a five bombs, having walls and buildings crumble down. Naga resurfaced into the bay, giving the group a view of the chaos currently taking place. Civilians were running and screaming for their lives, although no harm came to them in the first place.

Police officers failed at calming them, for it only became worse. Korra sighed and elevated herself above the crowd with a rock pillar. Once again, she had to get everyone's attention-except that it was many more people this time. She shot an impressive flame in the sky, making many of them gasp. One man called out, "Hey! It's the Avatar! Isn't she supposed to be helping us?"

Chief Saikhan hollered, "She is! But what we need for you to do at the moment is evacuate in the next half hour! You need to understand that Republic City is being attacked, and it isn't safe! The United Forces will be here, but when they do, this city will be their battle ground!"

Some had disbelieving faces, while Naga barked at the sky. They looked up, at the many sky bison flying away from the city, convincing enough to listen to the police for once. Korra sighed, retreating back to her pet. She flicked the reigns, leading a clear path for the citizens. A voice stood out as opposed to the rest.

"Hey, Asami! Mako! Guys!" Team Avatar swiveled around in their seats to find Mingyu-again. She panted from her quick jog to them. Korra rolled her eyes, not completely excited to see this girl again. She nonchalantly asked, "Oh, Mingyu. Nice to see you again. Wanna come with?"

Korra mentally flicked herself for inviting her. Mingyu didn't seem to notice, enthusiastically nodding. Korra perked up when she found how there wasn't any more space in the saddle. "Sorry, but there isn't any more room for another on Naga."

Mako was so unaware of what Korra was feeling towards Mingyu that he said, "It's alright. Minguu can sit behind me, that's all."

The Avatar unwillingly let Mingyu sit behind Mako, having Mingyu holding onto his waist. Korra felt her eye twitch annoyingly, flicking the reigns once again. She had guided enough people out of the city to continue their own journey. The group continued until they arrived by the mountainscape, being blanketed in white. From a distance, it almost resembled Naga's vibrant fur color.

The polar bear-dog galloped at full speed, refusing to fall back. The horizon ahead was clearing of the sky bison, the flying animals splitting up into four groups. One of the red airships shot a net at Oogi's group, the net being split in half by what looked like a wire. Korra was amazed, "So I guess Bei Fong, Pema, and the airbender kids are heading South. Katara and the Council kids are probably with them, too."

Mingyu asked, " But where's the Council?"

Asami politely answered, "The Council's been missing, actually. The page told me this morning that they were never seen at City Hall."

Korra snickered, "And I'm sure Tenzin's glad that it's turn to be in charge."

Team Avatar set up their temporary camp. Mako and Bolin laid out the tents while Asami was setting up dinner. Korra and Mingyu's jobs were to collect firewood. Mingyu skipped along, "Here, I'll collect wood from this side while you take the other."

It was difficult to grab enough wood from the few trees by the mountainside, but Mako and Korra didn't want to light their own flame. They needed rest, by the way. Korra's brown boots had snow crunched as it came in contact. She bent down to pick up a few logs. The Avatar headed pretty deep into the small forest, but it was large enough for anyone to get lost. She summoned a flame in her palm, having it flicker by the wind.

From the corner of her eye, she spotted a darkening figure. "Who's there?"

The figure stood still, something Amon would've done if he were to intimidate her. Korra was growing impatient, the flame she was holding growing as she took steps closer. With Korra's fourth step, the figure faded. Korra kicked herself, "You're going crazy, Korra. Just an illusion."

The waterbender turned, but stumbled back when the shadowy being was in front of her. The figure raised his hand which had a deafening screech fill the air. Korra covered her ears, shutting her eyes closed. But finally, the screeching stopped. Korra wobbled when she stood, whatever that thing did to her left her with a headache. She wasn't the stay-and-chat type, this was proved by how she sprinted without turning back. She exhaled deeply-leaving the warm air form a cloud in the winter temperature. 'I'm definitely going insane,' she thought. That thing couldn't be Amon, because he would have gone chasing after her or sent chi blockers to capture her, at the least. Besides, she didn't see a mask.

So who or what was the figure? Korra pondered this, but still went on her way to running back to the campsite. She ran as fast as her legs could carry her, approaching the opening and out of the woods.
