I own nothing! I don't own Harry Potter or The Legend of Korra, or any of the characters in either one! I just own the Snape family members (except for Severus, of course), and the other OC's.
Last time…
"Well, let's not stand here wasting time, then," Lin snapped, "Let's go find her. I've got a plan."
Piece by piece, layer by layer, Silvana was stripped naked as she was chained to the wall with chains that were designed to prevent any kind of bending. She was terrified, and as badly as she wanted to cry, she forced herself to keep her tears in, knowing it would only make him feel more empowered.
"Well, I admit, you've got some guts," he grinned foolishly, "But it just so turns out that I know that you're afraid of men except for Iroh. Or rather, that you're afraid of men who are turned on."
"Get away from me," Silvana growled, "Iroh will kill you if you touch me like that."
"Oh, I won't be touching you," he grinned maniacally, "No, I intend to drive you into insanity. And then rape you."
"Get away from me!" Silvana repeated louder, and the chains on her electrocuted her as she struggled to be free. "I'm warning you, I've killed more people than you could ever hope of killing!"
I dreamed I was missing; you were so scared.
But no one would listen; cause no one else cared.
After my dreaming I woke with this fear:
What am I leaving when I'm done here?
"This is the one," the child said as he leapt off of Appa. "Father said it would be the quickest one for him to get to if he was in a hurry and if she was injured!"
"Allow me," Lin said before jerking the doors open with metalbending. "We'll need to act fast. She could be anywhere."
"Right, we'll split up," Korra said with a nod. "Iroh, you, Lin, Asami and Tenzin take Naga and go that way. Bolin, Mako, Fire Lord Roku, you're with me."
Iroh leapt onto the large polar bear dog with the others following in suit. He snapped the reigns, driving it expertly. After a few twists and turns, the large canine lifted its head and sniffed. It growled before bounding forwards angrily and snarling at an unseen enemy.
"Get away from me!" Iroh heard Silvana yell faintly, and he nudged the white steed forward with his legs gripping her tighter.
"Don't let us be too late," he pled quietly.
So if you're asking me, I want you to know:
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done!
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed!
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory!
Leave out all the rest!
"Get away from me!" Silvana yelled as Ozai removed his next to final garment.
"Oh, tsk, tsk, tsk," he smiled shaking his head as he removed his shirt to reveal his chest, and a fair amount of body fat. "Such a pity you haven't seen Iroh like this."
"Says you," Silvana spat.
"Oh, so you have seen him naked? Hah! I'm going to love making him lose the crown throne," he laughed maniacally, "As soon as I'm the Fire Lord, you'll be my bride! And then I can rape you every day and not have to worry about a damn thing!"
"I hope you die," Silvana growled as she moved her wrists to try to blood-bend to save her life.
"Oh, you've got a long way to go before you can use blood-bending," he laughed, his underwear bulging in a manner that made her want to vomit. "Now be a good girl, and denounce your engagement to Iroh."
"NEVER!" she screamed angrily, and he yanked her downwards, moving her hair so that it was above her head, and snarling.
He positioned her so that she was lying with the right side of her jaw touching the ground, and he stepped back before ramming his foot onto her ribcage multiple times until they both heard a sickening snap before Silvana screamed.
Don't be afraid.
I've taken my beating.
I've shed but I'm me.
I'm strong on the surface – not all the way through.
I've never been perfect, but neither have you.
"Silvana!" Iroh yelled as he heard her agonized screaming. "I'm coming!"
"We're coming," Lin corrected, "We're not leaving this fight to you alone, Iroh."
"Wait, we have no medic!" Asami panicked, and the three benders scoffed.
"We aren't exactly healers, but we've learned some," they said in unison.
"I just hope it's enough," Asami worried as she clutched Lin's gut fearfully.
"We can only do our best," Lin said as Korra raced up beside them, her feet moving like lightning and the earth beneath her propelling her forward, two of her strides equaling six of Naga's. "Nice thinking."
"I figured we'd need a healer," she said, "Fire Lord Roku knows the way around."
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well.
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are.
Silvana kept screaming in pain as her attacker melted the door shut, blocking it with more objects that would react and trigger traps upon the intruders that he knew were in the building.
"Your precious General is too late," he laughed, "You're mine."
"No!" she screamed, her eyes closing tightly. "Never!"
"Too bad," he smiled, yanking her legs apart.
"I SAID NO, YOU BASTARD!" she screamed, and she opened her eyes and let out a steady stream of fire at her attacker.
"Impossible!" he yelled as he tried out counter it, but Silvana continued , and a tiny spiral of the fire almost touched his head. "You little bitch, you're mine, and you know it!"
"SCREW YOU!" she screamed.
"Silvana!" Iroh yelled just outside the door.
"Move," she vaguely heard Lin say. "Korra, Iroh, be prepared to destroy some traps."
"Right," they said as she broke the metal doors down.
They stared in shock as Silvana was locked in a fire against fire match against her attacker, wearing nothing but a layer of earthbending on her front and across her hips and covering her lower regions. She dodged to the right before screaming in pain at the burn she received across her back as she raised her wand to her opponent.
"Sectumsempra!" she yelled, and a jet of light shot out of wand, hitting Ozai square in the chest as he laughed at her "light show".
Team Avatar stared in horror as he dropped dead with a large gaping sword-like wound to his chest, a gaping hole in the center of his ribcage as Silvana fell to the ground exhausted.
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done!
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed!
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory!
Leave out all the rest!
"Silvana!" Iroh yelled as he leapt forward. "Korra, can you help Silvana, please?"
"Sure," Korra nodded.
"I'd have banished you, but that's not enough of a punishment. I daresay you got what you deserved after all the crimes you've commited towards the Fire Nation, and the Fire Lords Roku and Zuko, as well as myself. Azulon, what did you mean when you said he'd been taking orders from Azula? Which one?"
"I-I," the child stammered as he came foward, "My father is a good, man, sir, but he's not right in the head. It was when I was about five that he became a guard, and he used this position to try to find his birth mother since the one who raised him was released from prison duty when she grew pregnant with my mother.
"It was when I was seven that he discovered that his birth mother was Azula, the former heiress of the throne. He was so happy when he'd gotten home and told us. But mother was terrified of him and tried to get away from him. In a blind rage, he banished my mother and told her that if she ever tried to come back for me, he'd kill her.
"A few days ago, father took me to meet her. She kept ranting and going off about how she was supposed to be the one retired from the throne instead of Fire Lord Zuko, and how my father was supposed to be Fire Lord while I was the crown prince. I asked her why, and she said that it was because Zuko had stolen her throne from her.
"I told her that she wasn't making any sense, because Fire Lord Zuko beat her fair and square in an Agni Kai, and she screamed out a bunch of swear words before saying that Lady Katara had cheated during the Agni Kai by intervening. But, I'd already memorized the rules of the Agni Kai, and how each side was permitted to have one use of a medic with no interference from their opponent. I told her how she'd broken the rules of the Agni Kai, and that that in itself caused her to forfeit the match, and that Fire Lord Zuko beat her fair and square after that, since the battle was in the history books, as well as the fact that it was her grandfather who'd ordered the killing of all the Air Nomads."
"She probably didn't take that very well," Bolin said happily. "Nice one, kid!"
"Thanks," he said, "But that's not all. She turned to my father, and told him to punish me like her father had her brother. Father took me into my room that night and burnt my chest, telling me that if I ever spoke highly of Fire Lord Zuko in front of him again he'd make me look just like him."
"She'll live," Korra said firmly, "She'll have burns on her back, but Silvana's going to make it. If you're really worried about this, then we can take her to the Northern Water Tribe and get some special water that Katara got from there that she used on Avatar Aang."
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well.
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are.
"Iroh," Silvana groaned, her eyes closing as she was just barely able to make out the others who were in the room. Korra blinked and covered the fellow multi-bender.
"Everything's going to be fine," he assured her, eyeing the ring he'd given her that was somehow still on her neck.
"I can't be who you are," she moaned as she lost consciousness.
