This story will go along the plot of The Legend of Korra with some of my OCs and including Howl. One more thing, some of it might change a little though. So it sounds OOC, please don't flame me or whatever. Just enjoy. Don't read it if you don't like it all. All characters and everything else, except for my OCs, in the series The Legend of Korra belong to Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko.
Concentrating on Popping
Kanna pulls Korra from the crowd to the center of the room. "We're going to enjoy the night before Tarrlok gets you to answer some questions."
"How?" The crowd looked at the sisters while they stand back to back. The sisters bended some of water from thin air in streams. The streams circled around them.
"What are they doing? Korra is supposed to answer some questions."
"I believe that they're putting on the show, Tarrlok." Tenzin smiled as he stares at the bending sisters' display. Reminds me of the time when Senna and Nujalik were practicing their waterbending. If only you were here to see this, Nujalik. You would have been proud of both of your daughters.
The streams then burst into snow as they fall gently to the ground. The sisters faced one another and slightly bowed. They twisted and spun around each other, occasionally grasping hands and twirling around each other. The crowd fell silent as the lights gleamed off of their skin and their faces became flushed; the streams of water dances around them. Then they bend significant blobs of water, captivating Mako, Bolin, and Asami. They merge the two blobs into one stream, bending it around each other.
"I never would have thought that bending can be turned into a dance like that. It's lovely."
"It's so beautiful. Don't you agree Mako?"
"I wouldn't have agreed more." Korra and Kanna then see a band playing and run towards them. The crowd sees them dancing to a jaunty jig, and the sisters made some of them join in; Kanna drags Tenzin and his family while Korra drags Bolin, Mako, and Asami into the dance.
Soon everyone claps to the beat as they dance around a tile flooring of the emblems of the Fire Nation, Earth Kingdom, Water Tribe, and Air Nomads circling around the emblem of United Republic of Nations. They're still dancing as Bolin and Korra tries to join hands but keep getting dragged away by their dance partners. As they danced, Korra kept searching for the right moment by moving her hips in the rhythm of the beat. Each hit of the drum her hips would move as her feet were pointed before she performs a cartwheel slanted with the legs coming down over her head rather than sideways.
Bolin noticed her and for a moment, he fell in love with her. So both Bolin and Korra began cart-wheeling through the air, crouching, and kicking over one another's head. The crowd stops dancing and watches them with amazement. Bolin and Korra finally join hands, and the people applauded and cheer wildly. "You dance pretty good Korra. Where did you learn how to move like?"
"I just pick things up in different places. You move pretty well, too." Then they both stared at each other for a moment and smiled; their hearts have been beating at the same rate.
Later in the evening, Tarrlok and Korra walked towards a stair, and many reporters were waiting downstairs. As soon as the media notices Korra they rush for the stairs and start bombarding her with questions. "If you'd be so kind, they just have a couple of questions."
"But-" Tarrlok pushes her forward. Korra looks at the crowd with nervousness seeping out of her, and she takes a deep breath. Whoa, big crowd. There's Tenzin and his family. Kanna's also here along with Bolin and Howl. Even Mako is staring at me. I hope I don't blow it.
"Avatar Korra, you witnessed Amon take away people's bending firsthand. How serious a treat does he pose to the innocent citizens of Republic City?"
Korra clears her throat, "I think he presents a real problem." She sounds a bit confused when she answered it. It didn't sound right at all. Amon does have some good points about the city today, but should I really agree?
In the crowd, Kanna sees Tarrlok smiling; she knows what he's planning. He's planning to force Korra into his task force, and it seems to be working. Not if I have anything to say about this.
"Then why have you refused to join Tarrlok's task force? As the Avatar, shouldn't you be going after Amon?"
"Well, I-"
"Why are you backing away from this fight?"
"What? No, I've never backed away from anything in my life!"
"You promised to serve this city, aren't you going back on that promise now?"
"Do you think pro-bending is more important than fighting the revolution?"
"How do you think Avatar Aang would have handled this?" Korra is clearly starting to get confused, annoyed, and intimidated by this bombardment of questions. There even camera flashes as she tries to speak.
"Are you afraid of Amon?" As the questions began to grow, Korra closed her eyes for a moment and suppressed all the noise that is surrounding her. She then stared at her sister, but it wasn't her sister. It was more of a woman in elaborate Water Tribal robes. She has straight bangs, and her long white hair is split into two at the front with the ends bound. On her face is a mask with just the eye slits, two dots above them, and deer antlers coming out of the top of the mask. The woman then walked towards Korra and placed her finger on Korra's lips. She then placed her finger on her own and made a shush noise.
Korra closed her eyes again and sees her sister back to normal. Weird, who was that lady? Then she yelled, "Be quiet!" Everyone stopped talking and turned around to see Korra clenching her fists tight.
"What's wrong with all of you? Pressuring me to answer your questions, I know that I made that promise to serve the city and I never back away from any promise. No one could be brave all the time; we all have our fears to admit. Besides I kind of agreed with the Equalists. Non-benders are being oppressed by benders. You shouldn't be paying that much with me. I'm just here to help. Avatar Aang wants Republic City to be an example of peace and tranquility, but I haven't seen it since I arrived here. Non-benders have been the foundation of our society, helping everyone with everything. And what do they get in return? It's just nothing but oppression from benders."
"It sounds like you're agreeing with the Equalists. So should you allow Amon to take away bending?"
"That's not it. Amon is making it worse by trying to take bending away. I'm not afraid of anything. If the city needs me, then-"
"I'll take Korra's place in the task force and help defeat Amon once and for all." The crowd turned around to see Kanna all furious in her eyes. Kanna walked towards the stairs and faced the crowd. "Korra is in no position to join Tarrlok's vanity project. Please don't drag her into this insanity; she's just a young girl. Now there's your headline, folks. Have a great evening and good night everyone."
Kanna dragged Korra off the stairs by the hand but was stopped by Tarrlok as he rushes forward to put his arm on Korra's shoulder and yells. "This is ridiculous, Korra. I give you one final chance. And you stay out of it Officer Kanna."
"Don't touch me, Tarrlok. I still need to worry more about my role. Not yours, your words mean nothing in your mouth. Kanna is my sister and knows more about me more than anyone else can." The sisters then left city hall, leaving the crowd and Tarrlok in shock; the cameras began flashing, Bolin and Mako look at each other with confused looks. Asami, however, is still smiling while holding Mako's hand.
Howl bowed to Tenzin and left in a hurry to follow the sisters. Tenzin and his family smiled at each other, knowing what they all were thinking. Yep, those two are definitely like Nujalik and Senna.
As the sisters left the building, they both laughed as they clutched onto their stomachs. "Did you see Tarrlok's face? That is so priceless."
"But why did you take my place in the task force?" Kanna immediately had her laughter turned into silence and sighed. "Was it part of the reason why you quit the pro-bending league?"
"Yes, I didn't want you to be traumatized already if you join the task force."
"But Kanna-"
"It'll be enough for me alone to be back in the task force. But I promise to grant that wish you made back then."
"You promise?"
"I promise." They entwine their pinkies and shook on it. "Howl you're finally here."
The sisters look around to see Howl completely out of breath; his breath came out ragged. "I can't catch- my breath." In pure exhaustion and defeat, Howl dropped to his knees. Kanna stood next to him, patting his back gently.
"We're all going to be taking a cab anyway. Let's call cab!" So they all shouted out loud for taxi until the cab comes.
I was listening to Kingdom Dance by Alan Menken from the movie original soundtrack "Tangled" and the inspiration for a Borra moment came. Try to listen to this song as you read this chapter. I imagine Korra as Rapunzel and Bolin as Flynn Rider. OTP I guess. There should be some fun though in the fanficton, I mean who wouldn't? Please R&R.
