** Infatuation
He had always had a thing for control. He had always had a thing for power. Maybe it was his humble beginnings and his untimely demise that led to it, but he wasn't ashamed. People loved him and people hated him.
Then I must be doing something right.
But it was times like these – in the darkest shades of the night – that he wanted nothing but to disappear inside himself. It was times like these that he would've given up all the power, all the control, everything that he had ever had to get her back.
It wasn't fair, choosing between life and death like he had been forced to do. He wished his daughter was by his side, not strolling around with the Avatar.
When she had been born against all odds - for every doctor told them she would never survive - he had whispered to his wife that love conquered all. It was the greatest feeling he had ever known.
But here, trapped under all this crushing darkness he felt nothing but pain. He had risked everything; his livelihood, his company, his life to get her back. And nothing had worked.
Someone had once told him love conquered all. He didn't believe it now.
Am I the only one that actually feels bad for Hiroshi Sato? Yes? Okay. Write now I'm listening to 'Wishing you were somehow here again' from Phantom of the Opera and it just fits so well; for him, for Asami. Gosh.
Hey guys, Korra's on TOMORROW! YES! Alright, I'm done...

p.s I forgot to mention the part with Asami being a miracle baby isn't actually from the canon. I just added that in because I like the characters I write to have some background and it fit in sooooo yeah:)
