I do not own LOK & don't earn anything from this fiction

If that's not enough there will be torture, sexual violence and just flat out nastiness, you have been warned! I made some spelling, grammatical and format changes, if you read it, review it.

7 hours earlier in the ruins of what was downtown Republic City, Varrick sits tied to a chair, stripped to his skin, his arms and shins lashed to the chair, trying to remain upright in a chair that has no seat. Zhu Li hanging by her wrists, her toes just fraction of a millimeter above the floor, vainly reaching for the floor with her toes, facing each other about 2 meters apart.

"Varrick!, I finally get the chance to show you just how much I appreciate your kidnapping attempt 3 & 1/2 years ago", as a man appears from the darkness behind Varrick in the dim light casted by the hurricane lantern dangling from a cable between the two lovers.

"Raiko, what do you want? Money?, I got's lots of money! Just let Zhu Li go, you can have it all!"

"Money? Ha, Varrick we both know you don't have any! You haven't had any since the United Republic of Nations seized Varrick Industries after you tried to kidnap me. And to think I almost had Asami Sato then, but she put in that escape clause if you did anything illegal! But no matter I will have her once I destroy her and the Air Nation! And yourrrr going to help me Mr. Varrick.

"Help, you! Of course I'm not going to help you! Whadda think I'm crazy!"

"Oh no Varrick, I don't think you're crazy, but I do know that you are in love, isn't that right Zhu Li?

Varrick futilely strains against his bindings, screaming "Don't you hurt her, don't you dare hurt her!"

"Or what Varrick? You're not actually thinking that you're in a position to make demands now are you? I on the other hand am! And what I want to know is what I have to do to get the Spirit vines to charge the cannon. You designed it. Ironic isn't it, the same cannon that destroyed my city will be the same cannon that will protect my city from any military in the world!"

"I can't do that, you'll do the same thing Kurvia did and try to take over the world!"

"Now that's an excellent idea Varrick, but for now all I want to do is protect Republic City! So, if you won't help me maybe the lovely Ms. Moon will?" As Raiko walks towards Zhu Li he flips out a straight razor, grabbing Zhu Li's skirt and slices from hem to waist line, leaving her legs bear except for her under bindings, as Varrick screams wordlessly at him. "Well, Varrick shall I continue or will you tell me what I want to know?"

Zhu Li screams to Varrick "Don't tell him Iknik, I'm not wo..." stopping as Raiko places the flat of the razor against her lips, a drop of blood sliding down the blade.

"Ms. Moon, don't you know it's rude to interrupt a conversation? Ah, the youth of today just have no manners, don't you agree Mr. Zolt?"

"Yes, Mr. President." a cold flat voice responds from the darkness.

"Now Mr. Varrick, where were we? Ah yes, you're about to tell me what I want to know!", as Raiko hooks a finger under the top of Zhu Li's waist bindings and moves the straight razor slowly up her thigh.

Varrick blurts out "Just put a Spirit vine against the breech and pull the firing lever on the side, to stop firing separate the vine from the breech! Now please just let her go, please!"

"Oh, Varrick you are hardly in a place to make any demands. Zolt I want them dead before dawn. Do what you want to the woman, and make him watch it all, do you understand Mr. Zolt?"

"Yes Mr. President, kill the woman first."

"Very good Mr. Zolt, very good."
