So, Ninja makes a good point. I've got a lot of OCs in the story, I can agree to that. Thing is, this is meant as a sequel to the ATLA story I wrote, and the in-between timelines story. I mean, I could definitely just write about Akira and Korra, but then it would just seem like the other characters dropped off the map. Of course there are things I could do, this AN isn't going to be focused on that.
If you don't like parts of the story like Wild Fire, the Akarui Family, and other romances, like Ninja says, let me know. Otherwise I don't know if you are enjoying those parts. It would be cool if I had to power to read people's mind ha ha, but I don't.
Another point that Ninja makes is that I write the story too fast. Yeah. I can see that. It's one of the things I do at times. Whether that's good or bad, probably bad ha ha, it's up to you.
Also, take into account I have the majority of my chapters pre-written. So...yeah.
The last thought I'll leave with is that I'm not going to make every single person happy. It's just a fact when writing or making anything. I'm no professional writer, and I do this for fun.
So sorry for the long AN before the story. I'll let y'all read.
"Unalaq's a liar and a traitor!" Korra exclaims to a gathered Mako, Asami, Akira, and Varrick and Zhu Li in a platypus-bear suit.
"I've been trying to tell you that from the get-go." Varrick shouts.
"What happened?" Mako asks.
"I found out the truth about my Dad's banishment. Unalaq hired the barbarians to attack their tribe. Then he told them to hide in the spirit forest, knowing my Dad would go after them."
"Unalaq wanted your dad out of the way so he could become chief. It was a setup!"
"Just like the whole trial. I can't believe I trusted him. I'm busting my father and the rebels out of jail. I need your help."
"If we do this, there's no going back." Akira states.
"I know. Will you help me or not?"
"Naturally."
"Of course I will."
"Me too."
"Count me in."
Suddenly, the door swings open. In steps Bolin wearing clothing very similar to Desna and Eska, as well as poor Pabu.
Akira does his best not to laugh while Mako remarks, "I don't even want to know."
"So I'm guessing the breakup with Eska didn't go well?" Asami asks.
Bolin sarcastically replies, "No, no, the honesty thing worked out great. So great that she decided we should get married!"
"Sorry."
"I'm pretty sure the guy is supposed to give the girl the betrothal necklace." Korra states.
"I guess Eska didn't get the memo."
"Look, the only way to deal with crazy women is to lie big and leave fast. Lucky for you, Varrick's got your back. Now gather 'round Ping-Ping. Let's talk plan."
After they all devise the plan they break to put it into action. Team Avatar, sans Bolin, will go and break out the Rebels. After traveling through the underground tunnels they arrive at the prison and make a hole under a guard, stealing the keys. They all make their way to the cell and open it, only to find it empty.
"Where is he?" Korra questions.
They all see Unalaq approach, standing a good distance away.
"I'm sorry, Korra. You'll never see your father again."
"Where's my father?" Korra demands.
"On a ship headed to the Northern tribe. He'll serve out his sentence there."
"Bring him back or I'm taking you out, and the rest of your army."
"Remember who you are. As the Avatar, you cannot threaten war. You must remain neutral, or our tribes will never find unity."
"You don't want unity, you want power. You've always been jealous of my father, haven't you? You got him banished so you could become chief and I bet it just killed you to learn he was the Avatar's father. No wonder you kept trying to take me away from him."
"All I've ever wanted is to help you realize your destiny."
"Well, I don't want your help anymore."
"If you start a war, the dark spirits will annihilate the South and even I will be powerless to stop them."
"I'm done being manipulated by you. You're going to bring my father back, then you and your troops will return to the North."
"And why would I do that?"
"Because you still need me to open the Northern portal."
Korra turns her back to Unalaq as he responds, "No, I don't. You've served your purpose."
Korra and Akira share a look before attacking. Korra lets loose a volley of flames as Akira does the same. Unalaq is surprisingly talented at water ending as he blocks the flames with water from a pouch. He then attacks and manages to create ice in a water funnel.
Akira moves back and cycles in Mako to move in to strike. He does so but it battered by water and shoved against a wall. Korra ends the fighting by launching a wave of air at Unalaq, stunning him long enough for the team to make their escape. Their next location, Varrick's boat.
Everyone manages to make it onto the large vehicle as Varrick is getting it started up.
Bolin asks Korra, "Where's your dad?"
"On a ship headed North." She speaks to Varrick asking, "Think we can catch up to it?"
"Sure, once you get us past our friends from the North." Varrick says in reference to the blockade.
"If only we had a plane to get me close to those ships. I could Waterbend them out of the way."
"A plane? Well, why didn't you say so?"
Varrick pushes a button and a plane rises up to the deck.
"Um, why do you have a plane on your boat?" Mako asks.
"In case the boat sinks, of course."
"But there's no runway. How're we gonna pick up enough speed to take off?" Akira states.
"Zhu Li! Take a note, build runway."
"Yes, sir."
"I have an idea." Korra says.
Asami gets in the pilot seat while Korra and Akira stand on the wings. Asami gets the plane moving as Korra and Akira boost the vehicle with their flames aimed behind them. The idea almost fails as the plane slides down but quickly rises up.
As the boat and plane get close to the blockade Korra activates the Avatar State, bending the water to push the Northern ships out of the way.
Now in the clear, the plane occupants scan the area. Luckily, the ship carrying the rebels hadn't gotten too far and Korra is able to point it out.
The three jump from the plane and let it crash into the water, exploding, causing a distraction.
Korra bends an air bubble around their heads as they rise on the other side of the ship. With a Waterbending boost, the three are standing on the deck of the ship. Korra then sends a huge majority of the crew over the side with a wide swing of two water whips.
One soldier far away is frozen against a wall and forced to tell the trio where the prisoners are.
After gathering them, the group move to an extended platform, waiting for Varrick to get closer.
"Korra, this is crazy. You promised me you wouldn't do anything rash." Tonraq says.
"We didn't have much of a choice, sir. We'll explain later." Akira declares.
From above Northern Soldiers lob water strikes at the group as Varrick pulls over. Mako and Akira blast the water as everyone hops onto the friendly ship. With everyone onboard, they escape from the area.
Once safe, Korra explains the whole situation. "So once I knew the truth, I couldn't sit by and do nothing."
"My own brother betrayed me. And our entire tribe!"
"What's our next move?"
"I've been running from my past for too long. It's time to put my brother in his place."
The Rebel Leader and others place their fists over their hearts. "You have our support, Chief Tonraq."
"Mine too. I'll be proud to fight alongside you, Dad."
"No, Korra."
"But you said the South doesn't stand a chance against Unalaq's forces. I can help."
"The best way for you to help is by getting the President of the United Republic on our side. The South can give Unalaq a good fight for a while, but we'll need the United Forces in order to win this war."
"All right, I'll get you all the help you need." Korra then hugs her father. "I love you, Dad."
"I love you too." He replies.
Tonraq and the rebels move to land on an ice platform. With them gone, the ship starts moving again.
"I really need to thank you, Korra." Bolin says.
"For what? I started a civil war."
Enthusiastically, Bolin replies, "Exactly! Now Eska and I are officially broken up."
"Oh, looks like we have company!" Varrick calls out. "And not the fun kind!"
"What is that?" Mako asks, as Bolin takes the spyglass.
Bolin looks through the scope, looking stunned as he wipes his eyes before looking into it again. "That would be my darling Eska. Quick question: Is this thing fast enough to get away from my crazy Waterbending ex-girlfriend? "
"Why do you think I built this boat?"
Varrick hits the throttle, speeding the ship forwards.
Hao wakes up as the morning sunrays seep through the curtains. He groans and stretches his arms, feeling one of them pinned against something, or someone.
Opening his eyes, Hao sees Lin still asleep beside him. She's only wearing underwear and a shirt. Gently, he nudges her awake.
"Morning Lin." He greets.
"Good morning to you too."
Both get ready for the day and eat breakfast together.
"This civil war business is going to get really tedious." Hao comments, taking a sip of his coffee.
"I know. Getting that late night call from Korra doesn't help."
[Flashback]
Hao and Lin are lying in bed, Hao reading a book while rubbing Lin's back. The phone suddenly rings, and Hao answers it.
"Hello? Korra? Yeah, Lin's here do you…Uh huh. Ok. That's…not good. Get back to Republic City and we'll sort this out, ok? Alright. Goodbye."
Hao hangs up and informs Lin about their incoming Avatar and the latest news. Needless to say, it took a fair bit of time to calm the police chief down.
[Present]
"Yeah. I'm going to have to call in Wild Fire. I can already feel the heart attack coming on."
"I wish you wouldn't joke about your health like that."
"Sorry. Bad habit."
Hao finishes his meal first and downs the rest of his drink. He gives Lin a kiss on the cheek saying, "I'll see you for supper. Bye."
Lin says goodbye and watches Hao leave, the door clicking behind him. Finishing her own breakfast, Lin gets to work.
She has an eventful morning, getting to arrest Water Tribe gangsters as the Avatar and her companions arrive.
"Welcome home, Avatar. Thanks for starting a war." Lin sarcastically greets.
"I didn't start a war! Well, I did, but it's more complicated than you're making it seem."
Lin looks past Korra and addresses Mako. "Mako, I want you back on the beat. There's going to be a Southern Water Tribe peace march tonight. I need you there to make sure things don't get out of hand."
He replies, "I'm all yours."
"I'll go too." Korra inputs. "The people of the South need to see that the Avatar is on their side in the fight against the Northern invaders."
"Great. That should calm them down."
"Maybe you should sit this out." Mako suggests.
"What?"
"I just think having you there blatantly supporting one side will only make things worse. You could at least try to seem neutral."
"I'm not neutral, the North invaded my home. The only reason I'm here is to get the Republic to send troops to help the South."
"Zhu Li's already scheduled a meeting for us with President Raiko tomorrow. We'll get him on board."
"I'm going to side with Mako on this one, Korra." Akira says. "Like you said, we need troops. Why don't we see Hao tonight and talk to him about getting Wild Fire support."
Korra takes a moment to think about her options. While she did want to publicly support her home, getting aid from Wild Fire would definitely be beneficial.
While Korra decides what to do, everyone else starts to leave.
"Fine. If you can arrange a meeting with Hao, I'll talk with him."
"Thank you, Korra. I'll find him right now."
Akira walks away and makes his way through the streets to an average looking area. The only noticeable landmark is a bar/brothel. He gives the enforcer a nod of the head before entering unimpeded.
Inside he sees the bar table being operated by Tamako, with very few patrons around. She waves him over and begins to make him a drink.
"I see you're back." She remarks, constructing the beverage.
"Yup. I was hoping you'd help me with something."
"Of course." Tamako remarks, leaning her cleavage towards him.
"Not like that. Focus for a moment. I need to get in contact with Hao."
"Oh. That's easy. Go talk to Tamayo about it though. She's just in the back doing some paperwork, so I'm sure she'll like the interruption."
"Alright. I'll do that."
Akira accepts the drink offered and gives Tamako a kiss on the cheek before walking to the backroom.
Once there he sees Tamayo at a table, a few rolls of money nearby and paperwork in front of her.
"Wow that reminds me of grandpa. From what I've been told anyways."
Now noticing the new arrival, Tamayo smiles and embraces Akira. "It's good to see you again. I'm assuming you said hi to Tamako?" She asks, sitting back in her seat.
"Yeah. She seemed to think that you could use a break, and I should be assisting you in that endeavor."
"Hah. I could certainly use a break."
Akira takes a sip from his glass and places it down on a coaster.
"I could use your help in an important matter."
"What do you need done?"
"I need to arrange a meeting with Hao. With Wild Fire pulled out, there aren't that many agents here."
"What time do you need to meet?"
"Tonight. At our place."
"Alright. I'll arrange it."
"You're wonderful. I should go tell Korra."
Akira kisses Tamayo on the lips, hanging there a bit longer than normal, making the older girl moan.
"Are you sure you can't stay for a few minutes?"
"Yes. Although," Akira trails, running his hand along Tamayo's abdomen, "maybe later this night we can unwind. You can even invite Tamako."
"You know she's always interested in the pleasurable pursuits."
"That I do. I'll see you later then."
Tamayo grabs Akira's face and gives him a deep kiss before allowing him to go. On his way out, Akira finishes his drink and tosses the glass to Tamako, who catches it with ease.
He then heads out and finds Korra on Avatar Aang Memorial. He lets her know about the arranged meeting and the location.
After waiting for time to pass the duo head to Akira's place. Hao is already waiting inside, early.
"Ah, Avatar, Akira. Good to see you both."
"You too, Hao." Korra greets which Akira shakes his hand.
"Now, I understand that you've got a bit of a civil war problem."
"Aheh. Yeah." Korra embarrassingly says.
"Why don't we take a seat on the couch." Akira suggests. The others agree to the idea, getting comfortable.
"I'd be glad to send Wild Fire troops to help. The problem is that it's a very long journey, and Firebenders in the tundra haven't been known to be the most effective."
"Don't you have a detachment of specially trained Chi Blockers?" Akira asks.
"Banshees, Kushi trained them directly, yes. There's only twenty of them right now though. Not enough to do any real damage against the North, and why they didn't show up during the whole Amon event. We could get Apollos to go there though, assist the rebels."
"That would be a good start."
"Is that all you can do right now?" Korra asks.
"We can also send the rebels supplies. Make sure they get food and such."
Korra nods in positive acknowledgement.
Hao lets the two know he'll think on the subject more and get back to them. Korra leaves soon after the Wild Fire Leader to learn how the peace march went.
Now alone, Akira turns the tv on and starts brainstorming his own ideas. His train of thought is interrupted when Tamayo plops down beside him.
"Busy day?" He asks.
"That's an understatement. Do you know how hard it is making it seem like someone's good at sex?"
"Probably very hard?"
"Yup. Tamako's already turned in for the night. I was going to get a drink, but then saw you here brooding."
"I was thinking, not brooding."
"Same thing. Hold on, I'm getting that drink."
Tamayo gets up and grabs a bottle of Fire Whiskey before taking her spot on the couch again.
"What were you brooding about?"
"Thinking. I was thinking about the civil war."
"Boring." Tamayo responds, taking a swig of her drink. After a few more deep gulps the content of the bottle is gone. "So, do you wanna fuck?"
"Always direct, you and Tamako. You know, this is why our family doesn't talk about you two that much."
"Hey, we're open with our sexuality. And we built a business off it. So, yes, no?"
"…I don't know."
"I hate indecisiveness. Fuck it."
Tamayo throws her pants off and sits on Akira's lap, suddenly feeling his now present bulge.
"Good. Now, let's have some fun."
Tamayo slides Akira's pants off of him, then the underwear. She places his member into her mouth and moves down all the way until reaching the end. Tamayo enjoys feeling Akira grab her head and push it down further.
A moment later and Tamayo lifts her head back up, a sultry smile on her face.
"You should be glad Tamako and I taught you so much about sex. I'm sure Korra appreciates our lessons." Tamayo whispers, positioning herself above Akira's dick, lowering herself onto it. "Oh Agni."
She gives Akira a passionate kiss, grinding against him with his member still inside her. Tamayo continues moaning as she sets the pace, raising herself up carefully and lowering herself down hard. She takes in all the pleasure she can.
Feeling him about to cum, Tamayo hops off of Akira and starts sucking again. As he ejaculates she swallows it all.
"Finally, someone who knows how to treat a girl right." Tamayo comments, laying her head against Akira's shoulder.
"We have a very very very weird family."
"Yup."
After the short rest, Tamayo gathers her clothes and heads to her room, but not before hugging Akira.
"Good night cous. Thanks for the fun time."
"Night Tamayo."
Akira gets dressed and heads to his room, only to undress and change into some pajamas.
Even after having heated sex, the civil war plagues the Firebender's mind. Would they be able to win even if they're not able to secure assistance from the United Forces? With luck, they'll be able to. Trying to put the thoughts aside, Akira closes his eyes and falls asleep.
And that's it for this chapter. I threw in a lemon at the end because...why not. Practice and all that
Reviews would be appreciated
Anyways stay awesome guys and gals of the world, and I'll see you next chapter
