Alright. You may all read while I just sit and stuff ha ha


The next morning everyone gathers around the training ring, watching as Bumi tries to Airbend again. He's having no such luck.

"Ugh! I can't figure this thing out!" He exclaims.

"Do you think being in the Spirit World during Harmonic Convergence could have given him bending?" Korra asks Tenzin.

"I suppose it's possible."

"Maybe Uncle Bumi is just a late bloomer." Ikki inputs.

"I have been noticing a change in your aura lately." Kya states.

"And you didn't tell me?" Bumi asks.

Kya looks a bit annoyed by the questions.

As Bumi continues waving his arms Lin and Mako walk over to the group.

"Invisible spirit monster attack?" Lin asks.

"Lin! You won't believe this. Bumi just started Airbending." Tenzin tells her.

Lin and Mako exchange a look before Lin responds, "I'm afraid he's not the only one."

Tenzin, Korra, Asami, and Akira all simultaneously exclaim, "What?"

"I got a call last night about a guy who just started Airbending out of nowhere." Mako inputs.

"You mean there's another one? Where is he now?"

"He...blew a door down on me and got away. We've got an all-points bulletin out on him right now."

"Smooth, Mako." Akira jokes, getting a friendly punch to the shoulder.

As the two cops begin to leave, Korra offers their assistance, "Wait, we'll help you look for him. Where should we start?"

"Well, I guess you should check the bridges. The bulk of the police force is searching the actual city, so he could use the opportunity to run away."

"Alright. We'll check them out."

Mako nods his head and follows Lin away.

As Korra, Asami, and Akira walk to the car, Korra says, "This is so exciting! New Airbenders in the city? I bet we can find that guy before Mako does." Asami then tosses a set of car keys over to Korra from the other side of the vehicle. Korra catches it and looking at the keys uncertainly. "You know I'm not very good at this."

"You're the Avatar, master of all the elements. You should know how to drive. Besides, it's relaxing." Asami states.

Right. Better make sure my seatbelt is secured Akira thinks.

Just as he suspected, Korra is not the model driver. "Clutch!" Asami repeats as the car keeps jerking forwards. Korra eventually just stops the car, letting Akira ease the death grip he has on the back seats. "That's the brake."

"So, relaxing, right Asami?" Akira jokes, laughing with the girls.

"Let's try again. You ready?

Korra nods and begins driving again. This time it's a bit smoother.

"So, how're things with Mako?" Korra asks.

"We're doing well. We haven't had a chance to go on a date in a while though. Things have been pretty busy lately."

"I understand that." Akira comments. "My cousin, Tamayo, told me that she had to make a new deal in order to get her supply of Fire Whiskey. Turned out to be more beneficial though, so count that as something good that came from keeping the Spirit Portals open."

"A better supply of alcohol?" Asami asks.

"Yup. We should go by the place sometime. Just for drinks though."

"What else does the place offer?"

"Women." Akira plainly answers.

"Oh."

Asami's face blushes, as does Korra's a bit. Suddenly, Asami sees a vine and shouts out in alarm. Korra quickly slams the break, stopping the vehicle.

A spirit Fruithog pops out of the vine and shouts, "Hey! Watch where you're going!"

Korra stands up and points at the spirit asking, "What are you doing living in the middle of the road in the first place?"

"Don't ask me, Avatar. You made the world this way, we're just living in it."

"Look, I don't have anything against spirits, but these vines are causing major problems all over the city."

"Spirits? Vines? We're all the same. Seems like the Avatar would know that." The spirit then disappears, ending the conversation.

Korra sits back down with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Korra, you ok?" Asami asks.

"I think that spirit just gave me an idea how to get rid of these vines. But I'm gonna need a lot of water."

Asami and Akira pick up on the idea. The trio divert their route to a canal with a bridge, with spirit vines covering a building. As they wait for Lin and Bolin, Akira decides to leave, feeling his Firebending wouldn't be much use in this situation.

Once Lin and Bolin arrive, Korra begins.

"I hope this works." Korra intones, turning around to see President Raiko and the press arrive. "What are you guys doing here?"

"I was alerted that you had a new plan to wipe out these noxious weeds. So I thought you'd want everyone to be here to watch."

A reporter raises his hand and asks, "Avatar Korra! Do you really think-," before getting cut off.

"No questions! Just stand there. Silently!"

Korra then uses her Waterbending technique on the building covered in vines. The vines soon begin to recede into the water, and within seconds they're gone.

"Go in peace." Korra utters.

The press waste no time in approaching the Avatar with questions.

"How did you know what to do?"

"Will you send the spirits away now?"

"How soon can we expect public water service to resume?"

Unfortunately, the Spirit Vines return and burst from the water, more numerous than before. Now they reach across the other side of the bridge and begin to pull a building down.

"Look out!" Korra shouts, quickly using her glider to get over to the collapsing building.

Lin and Bolin quickly bend stone pillars to catch the building, keeping it from moving for now.

With the building now under semi-control, Korra busts the door down and evacuates the people. After everyone gets out she glides up to a vine and sees a child standing on the windowsill. She grabs the child and sees a large chunk of debris begin to fall.

Korra manages to get the child down to the ground and just barely prevent the debris from crashing to the ground and crushing the civilians.

"I think that could've gone better." Bolin comments.


Akira sits nearby Tamayo at her business table, massaging his head.

"You know, you don't have to be a bodyguard." Tamayo remarks, flipping through some pages. "We've increased security drastically, and the asshole was arrested."

"I know. What if I'm here just to spend time with you and Jelly?" At the mention of the spirit, said Jellyfish floats over to the man and hovers around his head. "I like this one."

"That's good to hear. He's been especially adorable as of late."

Akira stands up and pours himself a drink, asking Tamayo if she wants one.

"I'm good, thanks." Is her reply.

"I've never known you to reject a drink."

"I decided to take a break. Temporarily though."

"Oh? What's the special reason?"

"That, is a secret. For now anyways."

The phone suddenly rings and Tamayo answers it.

"Tamayo speaking. Yeah. Ok. Yeah I'll tell Akira. Thanks Kasem."

"Something up?" Akira asks as Tamayo hangs up.

"An Airbender was spotted on Kyoshi Bridge. Kasem said he saw Korra there and thought you'd want to know."

"Ah, yeah I should go. I'll see you around."

Akira bolts out of the room, causing Tamayo to roll her eyes and shake her head in amusement. Jelly floats over to her.

"Never a dull moment, Jelly. Never a dull moment."


Akira arrives at the scene to see Team Avatar, Tenzin, and Lin standing around looking upwards at the Airbender. Akira joins them, nodding in greeting.

Lin raises a megaphone and declares, "Come down immediately, or we will be forced to take action."

"Stay back! I'm dangerous!" The Airbender states, proving his point as he unintentionally blows the Metalbenders off the massive beams. Luckily, they manage to land safely. The Airbender shouts out an apology as they do so.

Korra decides to use her glider to get up and speak with the Airbender.

From the ground they others can't make out what they're discussing. A few moments later though the Airbender falls, and Korra manages to save him from the great height.

Korra then introduces the Airbender, Daw, to the Master. "Daw, this is Tenzin. He's going to help you."

Tenzin politely bows to Daw and greets him, "It is absolutely my pleasure to meet you, Daw. I've never met a new airbender before. Well, at least no one whose diaper I didn't have to change."

"Actually I just fell off a bridge, so I could use a fresh diaper right about now."

Raiko then appears and announces, "We have a crisis every other day now, thanks to you."

Korra addresses the president, "Listen, I know you're having a tough time getting used to these changes, and I'm sorry for that. But you and everyone else are gonna have to learn to live with it. The vines and the spirits are here to stay."

"Well, you know who's not here to stay? You! I order you to leave this city. You've caused nothing but trouble since you arrived!"

Korra looks taken aback before responding, "Don't worry. I was already leaving." She then ends the conversation, turning her back to him and walking to Tenzin.

"I can see my path now. There are new Airbenders out there, and I'm gonna find them and rebuild the Air Nation."

"Don't think I'm not going with you." Tenzin says excitedly. "It's so exciting. Who knows who's out there right now, discovering the gift of airbending for the first time?"

Tenzin, Korra, and Akira hop onto Oogi. As they fly Akira already starts planning on what they'd need.

"Let's see. We'll need provisions, blankets, sleeping bags, a map, and-wait, why don't we ask Asami for an airship?"

"Good idea. I doubt we'd be able to fit everyone on Oogi." Korra replies. "I can give her a call once we touch down on Air Temple Island."

"Sounds good. I should tell my family I'm off on the next big Avatar Adventure."

Korra gives Akira a playful slug to the arm.

Tenzin is kind enough to drop Akira off at his house before flying off to the island. Once inside, Akira immediately sees Amako and Kasem playing chess. "Hey guys." He greets.

"Oh, hey Akira." Amako greets.

"Hey bud." Kasem says, focusing on the chess board.

Akira takes a seat between them and says, "Korra has her next goal planned. We're going to bring back the Air Nation."

Amako looks up in interest. "Wow. I heard about the Airbender, but I didn't think it was true. This'll certainly be an interesting adventure. Stay safe, alright?"

"Will do. We're planning on using one of Asami's airships. Any of you wanna join us?"

"Too busy, unfortunately." Kasem utters, moving a piece on the board.

"Same. Sorry." Amako replies, moving her own piece. "Check-mate."

Kasem groans and wipes his face with his hands.

"I'll see you two later then. Gonna visit the Twins, and get a drink while I'm at it."

"Coolness. Wanna go again, Kasem?" Amako asks.

"Ugh, fine."

Akira chuckles as he leaves, walking his familiar route to the Burning Heart. He gives the enforcer the usual greeting and enters the establishment. Upon entering he sees Tamako wiping the inside of a glass with a rag, using it to wave at him.

"Hey, Akira. Same as always?" She asks.

"Yeah. How about I save you the trouble of cleaning another glass and take the bottle?"

"Alright. Enjoy." Tamako states, handing him a medium sized bottle of the burning alcohol.

Akira gives it a lift before taking a swig. He coughs a moment after and says, "Whoa. Good stuff. So, my next adventure is going to be joining the Avatar in her quest to rebuild the Air Nation. You want in?"

"Eh, I'm good. My specialties include drinking, fighting, and fucking. Should you manage to send Airbenders here though, I can introduce them to our famous Republic City hospitality."

Akira aims the bottle at Tamako. "Good idea. Although some people may abstain from the fucking."

"Get enough drinks in them and we don't have a problem."

"Hah. I'll leave you to continue formulating your…plan."

Akira states, finishing his drink. He then gets up and walks to the office. Tamayo is leaning back against her chair, eyes closed.

"Hey, Tamayo." Akira greets, standing behind her and massaging her shoulders. "Feeling alright?"

"Yeah. Just annoyed by all this paperwork."

"Well, I have a proposition for you."

"Lay it on me."

"Korra's going to bring back the Air Nation. I'm asking our family members if they want in. So far, Amako, Kasem, and Tamako said no. How about you?"

"If it gets me away from the paperwork, I'm in."

"Awesome. We're going to be using one of Asami's airships, so we'll have plenty of space."

"Good. I'm going to bring a crate of Fire Whiskey then."

"I thought you weren't drinking?"

"I'm not, but you never know when you'll need one on these adventures."

Akira smirks and kisses Tamayo on the forehead before leaving, telling her he still has his parents and the others to tell.


"Reviving the Air Nation, huh?" Yumi asks.

"That's right. It's going to be a big undertaking." Akira states.

"I imagine so. You said you're going to be using an airship?"

"Yup. Courtesy of Asami."

"Make sure not to fall off then. I know you can fly with your Firebending, but even still."

"Alright, Mom. I'll keep my aviation to a bare minimum."

"Good. So, am I the last one on your list of family members?"

"Yup. Thought I'd come to you last so we could enjoy some time together."

"I appreciate the thought."

Together the mother and son drink tea and talk about things. Some are good topics, some bad. Eventually Akira finds himself standing near the front door, Yumi giving her son a hug.

"I'm glad to have you as my son. I'm proud of you." She declares.

"Thank you, Mom."

Akira then takes his leave, heading to Air Temple Island to visit Korra. A few days later and Asami arrives at the island with the airship. A few acolytes help lead it as it docks.

Korra, Akira, Tamayo, Bolin, Tenzin, and his siblings and family watch as it lands. After it does so the front ramp lowers with Asami standing inside.

"Did someone order a fully-equipped Future Industries airship?"

"It's perfect." Korra compliments as Asami walks down. "Thanks, Asami."

"It's no problem. I picked out one of the better one from its fleet. I figured if we're going to Ba Sing Se to search for Airbenders, we should do it in style."

Ikki and Meelo then run up into the airship, excited at the prospect of being in one. Of course Poki joins Meelo.

To the side with the others, Kya says, "While you guys are gone, Pema and I will hold down the fort." She then picks up her nephew, Rohan, and speaks to him in a baby voice, bouncing him up and down. "Who's excited to spend some time with your Auntie Kya? " Then he pukes on her. "Oh."

"Aww. He likes you." Pema says.

Luckily Kya just uses her Waterbending to clean up the mess, tossing the slosh to the side.

Mako then appears, holding a map canister. Korra walks over to greet him.

"Mako, I'm so glad you're here." She greets.

"Of course, Korra. Once I received your message, I proceeded to contact various locations within the Earth Kingdom. There are reports of Airbenders popping up all over the Earth Kingdom. I marked the villages on this map."

"Awesome. This'll definitely come in handy."

Mako then walks past Korra to greet his girlfriend, giving her an affectionate peck on the cheek.

The various people begin to say goodbye, with the two youngest of the Airbender Children asking why they didn't get to go when Jinora could. As they do so Akira and Tamayo stand on the ramp.

"This is already looking to be a fun outing." Tamayo comments.

"I know. I can't wait to see how many Airbenders we're going to find."

A few minutes later and all necessary party members are aboard the airship. After it takes to the sky everyone gathers around the map Mako brought. "As of now, these are the towns where we've gotten reports about Airbenders. It looks like we can hit up most of them before we get to Ba Sing Se." He states.

"We're going to bring the Air Nation back from the brink of extinction after nearly 200 years." Korra declares.

Tenzin responds, "And it's all because of you, Korra."

With the meeting adjourned, everyone dissipates into different parts of the airship. A few people, such as Tenzin and Mako, continued discussing their plans and map. Others like Jinora and Tamayo returned to their separate rooms. Akira and Korra decide to relax in her room, choosing to read a book and exercise doing pushups respectively.

As dinner comes around Tamayo and Asami whip up a delicious meal. As they do so, Asami makes conversation. "So, I heard you own a bar."

"Yup."

"And it's also a brothel."

"That's correct."

"That must be a…lucrative business?"

"It is, at times. Everyone wants a drink, and everyone wants someone to warm their beds. Tamako works at the bar, I handle the paperwork, and on occasion we both sample the clientele."

"Huh."

"Sounds pretty dull, right?" Tamayo asks, chopping a few carrots.

"I guess you could say that."

"To be honest, I was thinking of taking a vacation soon. I've had enough paperwork to last me a lifetime."

"I can very much sympathize with you on that account."

The two finish cutting and preparing the vegetables and set the table. One call throughout the airship later and everyone has gathered for the meal.

Things seem to be going well. People are conversing with each other, a few jokes are made, but Tamayo suddenly leaves the table, excusing herself.

She makes it just in time to the bathroom, throwing up in the toilet.

Oh shit. I hope no one walks in on me. Ugh, being pregnant is not enjoyable.

After cleaning herself up Tamayo decides to head straight to her room. She snacks on a few things while opening up the book she was previously reading. An hour later someone knocks on her door.

"Enter." She commands, interested in seeing Akira enter.

"Hey. You feeling ok? You left dinner in a rush and didn't come back."

"Sorry. Felt a bit sick."

"Are you coming down with something? I'm sure we have medicine on this thing."

"No, I'm fine. Thank you for your concern though. It's probably just my body getting used to being so high up."

Akira takes a seat beside Tamayo on her bed. She responds by putting her book aside, marking the chapter, and taking his hand.

The two then embrace each other, deciding to simply cuddle this time. Before long they part ways and enjoy the rest of the night in peace.


Alrighty! We're off to search for Airbenders. Hope y'all enjoyed. I'mma just stay sitting here ha ha
