Don't Think Twice

Author's Note: It's been a minute since I've updated this. Probably too long of a minute, lol. I already know what's going to happen, I just haven't gotten around to updating it. I've seen the recent reviews and old reviews from you guys, and now I'm back in it. Love y'all! ;)

Intro Music: Avatar: The Last Airbender Theme

Chapter 12: Superman Lover

Asami ran away from Air Temple Island, eventually making her way to Republic City so she could be alone to herself after what happened. That whole idea Sonic had with inviting Hiroshi to dinner turned out to be a complete disaster, and that still might be putting it lightly. She found a secluded area in Republic City, closing her eyes as the tears ran down her face. Everything that happened, from Hiroshi suddenly deciding to leave, the argument, him accusing her of not loving her mother like he did, which might have been the thing that stung the most…

You get the point, it was awful.

Maybe she was foolish in thinking that she would ever get the old Hiroshi back. False hope can be deadly for a person, and when that small glimmer of light is erased, or at least thought to be erased, it makes somebody feel even worse than what they were feeling before.

As Asami was crying, she heard a voice that wasn't far away from her.

"Asami?"

Hearing her name, Asami looked up to see that Tails had followed her. Knowing that she was crying, she looked away, not wanting her friend to see her like this. Tails could only frown at this reaction, coming closer to Asami and put his hands on her shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. You don't have to hide anything from me."

Asami continued to cry, still refraining from looking at Tails in his eyes. She honestly didn't know what to say, and at this point, she felt like she was being a burden to him. Because of her own family drama, Tails came all this way to see if she was alright.

"It's best if you leave…" Asami said, Tails nodding in disagreement.

"Sorry, but I can't do that." replied Tails, being completely serious, yet was still able to show a smile on his face. If there was one thing he learned from his best friend Sonic, it's that he's going to be there for his friends whenever they need help. "Remember what I said before?" he began, continuing since he wasn't looking for a response at the current moment. "When I said that we're gonna be here for you. Whenever, literally whenever you need to talk, your friends will be here for you."

There was a moment of silence, but hearing Tails say this finally made her look at him in his eyes.

Tails still wasn't finished, though.

"I'll be here for you." he added, still keeping his smile. During his time in this world, Tails and Asami have grown close to each other, finding out that they're able to relate to each other in multiple ways. Asami's tears were still flowing, but her face showed that she was touched by Tails' statement. She wasn't alone in this situation at all, not in the slightest.

Showing her thanks, Asami hugged Tails, the boy at first not expecting this but hugged her back as well.

"I'm just so sad and angry at how everything turned out…" Asami told her friend, still not letting go of him. "The dad that I once knew might truly be gone forever, and it hurts to realize the truth. Part of me already knew this, but the helpless little girl inside was still telling me there was a chance I could bring him back."

She had a short pause.

"I was an idiot for believing that could happen."

Tails continued to hug the crying Asami. "No. What you felt was completely understandable, and you're not an idiot for thinking that you could get your father back. Though, I still wouldn't give up hope."

The two finally separated from their hug. Asami's tears were still there, but they were slowly going away due to Tails helping her. "I know you're trying to be positive for me, Tails. I appreciate it, I really do, but I have to be realistic. My father returning to how he was before isn't happening."

Tails guided his hand and wiped off some of Asami's tears off her face. "And I'm being realistic with you," he told her, adding, "During that argument, even if he was really angry, he showed that he still loves you. He loves you a lot, I might add."

He held his chin, thinking about what to say. "Now his disdain for benders… that part isn't great, but… Is it wrong for me to say that I can understand where he's coming from, even if I don't agree with his reasoning?"

Asami gave a slight shrug. "You mean how he relates those benders that killed mom to every other bender?"

Tails gave confirmation by nodding. "Yeah, because it's unfair to all the other benders who had nothing to do with that." Tails looked down, wishing there was some way he could get Hiroshi to look past these clouded views. "Even so, like I said, it's not outrageous to understand his views given what happened."

Now Tails felt a little awkward diving into this subject, but that would be a given. Hearing about the death of Asami's mother, and now trying to find a way to successfully talk about it, was a whole lot harder than he thought it would be. This went way better in his head.

Luckily, he would be saved by the bell.

Or in this case, his best friend.

"There you guys are!" Sonic exclaimed, finally finding Tails and Asami. He walked towards them, mainly looking at Asami in concern. "Asami, are you okay?" he asked, looking saddened. "I feel bad because that whole thing was my idea, and-"

Asami cut Sonic off. "It's not your fault, Sonic. You were only trying to help."

Sonic sighed a bit. "I don't think I helped much…" In his mind, he thinks he kinda made things worse now.

Though, Asami forced a smile on her face, for not only the sake of herself, but the sakes of Sonic and Tails as well. She's had a long, long day. "Regardless, you were only being a friend trying to help another friend." she said, now beginning to walk away. "I'll be fine guys. I just need some time to myself." Her forced smile became even more forced, waving the two goodbye as she walked away.

Sonic and Tails looked at Asami leaving, then at each other. They both shared a frown at this messed up situation.

Poor Asami.

Equalist Hideout

"So, what you're telling me is that some speedy blue haired fool bested you and your machine as you were searching for the emerald. Not only did he beat you, but he also took the emerald from you as well." Amon spoke, having his arms behind his back as he looked at Hiroshi.

"You have to believe me!" Hiroshi exclaimed. "In all my years of living, I've never seen somebody be as fast as him. On top of that, he's supposedly my daughter's friend!" He was quite frustrated with this predicament. When he witnessed Sonic for himself, not only in their battle, but him showing up to Air Temple Island… That's what caused the whole situation to go downhill.

Amon remained silent, looking into Hiroshi's eyes. The silence was creating an eerie feeling, as you could hear a pencil drop by how quiet it became.

It took a minute, but Amon finally decided to respond.

"I believe you," he simply said. "In fact, I know who you're talking about since I've already dealt with him before."

Hiroshi looked surprised. "You fought him?!"

Amon nodded. "Indeed I did. Probably one of the most exhilarating fights I've had in my lifetime, to confirm. Although… I'm shocked to hear that he's still alive."

Hiroshi's eyes widened when he heard this. "Wait, you tried to kill him?"

"Yes, but it seems like I was unsuccessful in my attempt." Amon may have won the battle by his bloodbending, but he didn't know that Korra was the one who saved Sonic later that night. He turned his back to Hiroshi, walking closer to the map on his wall. Below the map was a glowing purple gem that had unlimited power.

The purple Chaos Emerald.

"We need to find out more about this emerald, the power it possesses…" he muttered, continuing to have his back turned to Hiroshi but was still speaking to him. "How's the research coming along on your end? Have you found a sufficient way for the emerald to power your machines?"

Hiroshi sighed, looking down in disappointment. "No, unfortunately. I've never seen anything like these things. It's like they came out of nowhere with no real explanation at all." He clenched his fists, gritting his teeth. "If I ever cracked the code, my machines would be unstoppable, and the revelation of purifying Republic City by murdering every bender would be nothing but guaranteed. Then afterwards… After we save Republic City, we can save the world. We can get rid of every bender for good."

The memories of how Hiroshi lost his wife to a group of firebenders were starting to come back to haunt him once more. His breathing became heavier as he was reliving the horrible tragedy once more, the tragedy that changed everything for him and Asami.

Whatever it takes…

He'll avenge her.

While Hiroshi was deep in thought, the Lieutenant came into the hideout with two other Equalists. "Amon, sorry to disturb you, but I have some very important news."

Amon wasn't looking at the Lieutenant, preferring to look at the purple Chaos Emerald instead. "Go on." he casually replied, waiting to hear what the Lieutenant had to say.

"A person says that he can aid us in our Republic City Revelation. Specifically…" the Lieutenant paused, still facing Amon. "He can help us unlock the secret to the emeralds."

Now that caught Amon's attention. Finally, he turned around and faced the Lieutenant. While his mask didn't show how his actual face was looking, it was clear that his curiosity was piqued.

Behind the Lieutenant and the two other Equalists was an egg-shaped man that would be unmistakable to recognize on Sonic's world. However, in the Avatar world, that was a different story.

Fully revealing himself, the man had a smirk on his face. "Greetings, Amon! I have heard so much about you!" he began, his smirk getting wider. "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Dr. Eggman."

Under his mask, Amon raised an eyebrow. "Dr… Eggman?" he repeated, never hearing a name like that before. He looked at Hiroshi, then at the Lieutenant. "This is some kind of joke, isn't it?"

Eggman waved his finger. "Nope! I assure you, it's no joke!" he confirmed. "It's been brought to my attention that some speedy blue haired idiot has interrupted a couple of your plans already." He started rubbing his hands together, salivating at the thought of taking Sonic down.

"I know how to defeat him."

It's safe to say that Amon didn't quite believe Eggman at first. "What? You know him or something?" he asked.

"You could say that." Eggman casually replied, giving a shrug. "Plus, like your Lieutenant already told you, I can help you with the Chaos Emeralds."

"You know what they're called?" Now it seems like Amon was questioning everything.

"Yes, what you have in your hand is the purple Chaos Emerald. Quite a pretty one, if I do say so myself." Eggman was fully confident in his responses, as he should be since he's the only one in the room that's had experience with Chaos Emeralds. "I can help you defeat Sonic, and help you save Republic City."

Hiroshi was shocked. He actually knew Sonic's name. He looked to Amon, giving his two cents. "He's not making up the name. Maybe this guy is for real."

Amon looked at Hiroshi, then back at Eggman. "Why do you want to help us? Is there some ulterior motive behind all of this?"

Eggman shook his head. "Sonic and I go way back. Nothing would make me happier than defeating him once and for all." He started looking around the hideout, gaining confidence as this conversation went on. "Besides, is there anybody else that's said they can help you master the Chaos Emeralds?" He was asking the question, but Eggman already knew the answer to that. His confirmation was the silence from everyone when he asked this question.

"Didn't think so." Eggman said, almost in a victorious tone. "Heck, I can even help your friend out with his machines." Obviously, he was referring to Hiroshi. "To be frank… a lot of his machines are below amateur level at best."

Hiroshi was outraged by that statement. "What?!"

Before things could escalate, Amon stopped Hiroshi's outburst by adding in another question. "How do you know about all of this, really? You know about this Sonic boy, you know about these… Chaos Emeralds as you call them, just where in the world did you come from?"

Eggman pushed his glasses up, laughing at Amon's curiosity that was mixed with him being suspicious. "That is a story for another time. No need to go over every single detail." he replied, holding his hand out.

"We have a deal?"

Amon looked at Eggman's hand, still being unsure of whether or not he could truly trust him. It's not the wrong feeling to feel, in Amon's defense. This random egg-shaped person just came into his base and says that he could help.

But… if there was a chance that he was telling the truth, then maybe they could really save Republic City and rid the world of benders.

And if Eggman did have something up under his sleeve, Amon would just bloodbend him into oblivion.

Wouldn't hurt to try.

Amon shook Eggman's hand, signaling that they had successfully formed a deal.

"Excellent choice of judgment, Amon." Eggman told him. "I'm sure we're going to do great things together. Given that I'm now on your side, we should talk about future plans, which actually leads me to a question."

By the tone of Amon's voice, he was confused on what Eggman would possibly ask. "What?"

Eggman, already forming a plan in his mind, had a devious smirk on his face.

"Are you skilled at making announcements?"

Later That Night

Back on Air Temple Island, it was clear that everybody was tired, both mentally and physically, after what transpired. Dinner with Hiroshi was an absolute disaster, and people tried to get their minds off it by drifting off to sleep.

However, just drifting off to sleep wouldn't simply happen for three people.

Korra wasn't sleeping due to the amount of stress she's been feeling lately, and with the fact that she felt really bad for Asami. She was the freaking Avatar, yet she didn't do a single thing during that argument to possibly calm them down. Once again, she felt helpless, putting the weight of the world on her shoulders.

Tails wasn't sleeping since he's grown really close with Asami ever since they got to this world. He kept on thinking back to when he tried to comfort her after she ran off, but even with him making a good attempt, he had no idea how to tackle the topic of her mother dying. Asami eventually left to be alone, and Tails couldn't stop thinking about her. He wished he could do more.

Sonic was awake as well. Every time he tried to fall asleep, he simply couldn't. He felt like this whole thing was his fault, since it was his freaking idea. All he wanted to do was help, but ultimately made things worse for his friend and her father. All he was doing was looking at the ceiling while on his bed, the guilt overtaking him by the second.

But then… something odd would happen.

Sonic's eyes widened, sitting up as he clutched his chest. He felt an unusually sharp pain there, but that wasn't even the weirdest part. The strangest thing was that his chest began to glow a white and blue light, almost acting like a flashlight cutting on and off.

Then if that wasn't enough, Sonic now felt like he couldn't breathe. He tried to force his body to move, but that would prove to be futile. The only movement his body would make would be him crashing to the floor, making a big enough boom sound for the people that were still awake to hear it.

Korra sat up in her bed, hearing the loud boom. Immediately getting on guard, she got up and ran out of her room, trying to figure out where the boom came from. In mere moments, she would get her answer.

During her search, she heard an in-pain Sonic that was still in his room. Immediately opening the door, her eyes widened at what she was witnessing. Sonic looked to be in excruciating pain, making Korra run to his side.

"Sonic! Sonic!" she fearfully yelled, kneeling down to his side. "What's wrong?!"

As much as he wanted to, Sonic couldn't get the words out. It seems like if he even tried to speak, that would put him through more pain that he did not want to go through. But even with that being said, he felt like he was about to die right now.

His vision was starting to become blurry, his breathing becoming heavier which only made Korra worry even more. She quickly grabbed Sonic's hand, saying, "Stay with me, okay?! Just hold on!"

Unknowingly to her, Korra grabbing Sonic's hand did something. Sonic's eyes slowly began to close, and that made her freak out.

"Sonic! SONIC!"

Within Sonic's Mind

BGM: Kingdom Hearts 2 - Roxas

Sonic found himself in an endless abyss, the ringing in his head getting worse as multiple unknown voices in his head were starting to form. He held his head, yelling in agony as all of these voices were coming at him at once.

"We need your help…"

"Are you from the Spirit World? I haven't been there yet, but the monks told me that I would encounter things like this."

"What good would it do me to stay here? You're the only person that could vouch for me, and yet you're the one that's leaving? Puh-lease. I'm going with you whether you like it or not. I don't know a dang thing about this world."

"Besides, I can't let my new friend go away like that."

"WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING?! IS THAT A GIANT RAT?!"

"Alright universe, take me. I'm ready, take me now."

"Aside from my brother losing his mind, and I'll admit, I might be losing my mind a little bit too, I'm sure I'm still sane… I think."

"I believe that from this day forth, your destinies are intertwined with his."

"I have no idea who or what you are, but you're getting on my nerves, freak!"

"Here, we'll ride the hopping llamas. Then waaaay over here we'll surf on the backs of giant koi fish. Then back over here we'll ride the hog-monkeys. They don't like people riding them, but that's what makes it fun!"

"Please freaking work…"

"CHAOS CONTROL!"

With that last quote, the abyss around Sonic started to bring him back to the large platform he saw when he, Tails, and Knuckles first got to Korra's world. Multiple upon multiple adventures started to show like they were on TV screens once more, except this time… Sonic had no recollection of these things happening. Along with that, they were going by so fast that he couldn't even make sense of them.

But then, these final quotes would bring him to his knees, and for some reason… It was making the blue blur fight back tears.

"Do you really think friendships can last more than one lifetime…?"

"I don't see why not."

The once dark abyss, just like the first time, eventually faded into white.

Back In The Real World

Being awake himself, Tails ran into Sonic's room, and when he saw what was happening, his heart dropped. His best friend was looking completely lifeless in Korra's arms, and he now began to yell. "What happened?!"

"I-I don't know!" Korra said, trying to fight back her tears. "I came into his room and he was in pain! He couldn't even say what was wrong!"

Tails came closer to Sonic's body, putting his hand on his best friend's hand. He gritted his teeth, the sheer sight of seeing Sonic in this state clearly getting to him. "Come on, man… I know you're still there…"

Oddly enough, as soon as he said that, Sonic awakened like he rose from the dead, his eyes being full of life as he quickly sat up. He felt a bevy of emotions right now, the most notable ones being confusion and sorrow. Everything felt like a dream that he couldn't make out.

But maybe… maybe what he heard, what he saw, whatever they were, weren't dreams.

As quickly as he sat up, Korra just as quickly hugged him, not wanting to let him go. It took a moment for Sonic to realize what was going on, but he hugged her back. It wasn't some type of regular hug either. It felt like a 'this is the last time I'm going to see you' type of hug. It's weird because death isn't knocking on Sonic's door at all, but something within him… just made him hug Korra like that.

"Sonic! Are you okay?! What happened?!" Korra asked, relief being in her voice as she still tried to fight back her tears.

There was a silence that came from the blue blur, still not knowing what the heck happened to him.

"I wish I knew…" muttered Sonic, having his eyes closed. Tails put his hand on Sonic's shoulder, feeling as relieved as Korra was.

"Please don't scare us like that again. You almost made us have heart attacks." Tails told him, Sonic turning to him and gave his best friend a smile. He grabbed Tails and brought him into the hug.

For the moment, everything seemed to be somewhat normal again.

Though, that can only last for so long when you're connected to Sonic.

The Next Day

It was nighttime once more, and the group figured that they could use some fun in their lives for once. It also might be one of the last times they're able to focus on group related activities since the Pro Bending Tournament was right around the corner. They invited Asami to see if she would come, and to everyone's surprise, she accepted the invitation.

They all met up at a Water Tribe themed restaurant. Whether or not it was a coincidence, it was the same restaurant that Sonic and Korra ate at some time ago. Some time ago, meaning the night where Korra and Sonic both got bested by Amon.

They were all sitting at a table, the attention at first being on Asami. Mako held her hand, asking his girlfriend, "Are you doing okay?"

They didn't leave off on the greatest note in their last conversation, but Mako did want to let her know that she was there for her.

Asami, putting on her best act, smiled. "Yeah, I'm fine." she said awkwardly, mostly because she felt bad for yelling at Mako last time. "Listen… I'm sorry I yelled at you earlier. It's just that-"

"You don't have to explain yourself," Mako told her. "I know emotions were running high, and I shouldn't have said that about your father to begin with."

With both of them apologizing to each other, they leaned in for a short kiss. Most of the group didn't seem to mind… Except for probably two people. Korra could only sigh at the sight, and Tails… Well, Tails wasn't sure what he was feeling when he saw Mako and Asami kiss. He felt… weird?

But why would he feel like that?

"Ahhhh, well at least one thing's going right." Bolin said, smiling at the fact that Mako and Asami made up.

"Relationships never cease to confuse the heck out of me." Knuckles stated.

"Maybe it's because that you weren't made for relationships." Blaze replied, actually being in a joking tone.

Knuckles looked at her, becoming wide eyed. "What is that supposed to mean?!"

"It sounds exactly how it's supposed to sound, Knux. If you were in a relationship, you'd probably suck." Sonic said, beginning to chuckle. "You're too much of a loner to make things work."

"And since when did you become a relationship expert?!" Knuckles retorted, knowing Sonic long enough to know that was the farthest thing from his strong suit. This caused the rest of the group to laugh, but all Knuckles did was pout, crossing his arms.

"Don't worry, Knuckles. I'm sure Rouge is out there looking for you." Blaze said, making Knuckles have a faint blush appear on his face.

"Ooooooh, who's this Rouge character?" Bolin questioned, smirking at Knuckles.

"A girl that flirts with Knuckles and he never knows how to deal with it." Tails joked. Since he couldn't tell the complete real deal, he gave a simplified version.

"Uh oh, Knuckles! You have someone flirting with you!" Bolin teased. "Come on, is she not cute or something? Is that why you haven't made a move yet?"

"I'm not answering any of those questions!" shouted Knuckles, regretting that he even brought up the word relationships at this point.

As the whole conversation turned into a comedic mess since everyone was talking about Knuckles' love life, it did seem like everyone was enjoying their time together.

Then… all of that would get interrupted.

BGM: Johnny Guitar Watson – Superman Lover (I usually don't say this, but it's mandatory that you guys play this song for what's about to come up, lol)

More than a few people were coming into the Water Tribe themed restaurant, and the rest of the people that were inside collectively gasped. After that gasp, they were going crazy with cheers. The group turned around to see what was all the fuss about, but mainly Bolin and Mako looked somewhat shocked.

"What's going on? Who are those guys?" Korra asked.

"Tahno and the Wolfbats, the reigning champs three years running." replied Mako, Korra's eyes now getting wide at the news.

Tahno, the leader of the wolfbats, proved to be the one that relished all the attention. He was a slender guy with pale skin, grey eyes, and silky black hair. But… what caught the attention of most people was his style.

He came inside the restaurant in an all-white glittery pimp suit, a lot of it showing his bare chest, a white hat that was cocked to the side, all white glitter shoes, a gold glitter cape that surrounded his back, and he was leaning to the side while he was walking. Girls from every freakin' nation were around this man. Earth Kingdom girls, Fire Nation girls, Water Tribe girls, and if the Air Nation wasn't darn near extinct, they'd be all up on him too.

Heck, even the men in the restaurant essentially had their breath taken away from Tahno's presence, leaning back like they were on the verge of fainting.

Tahno was the king of pimps.

He was THE pimp, might I add.

"TAHNO, YOU'RE SO FINE!" One girl called out, being one of the many that was fangirling over him right now.

Tahno, now seeing that the Fire Ferrets were in his vicinity, stopped himself.

He would snap his fingers.

"Cape."

One of his girls came close to Tahno, gently taking off his cape and enjoyed touching the back of his body.

"Lint."

Another one of his girls came, having a lint roller and started to get the lint off his clothes. She started from the bottom, and once she rose up to his shoulders, the girl blew in Tahno's ear. She eventually stepped back to give respect to his fabulous royalty.

"Towel."

Yet another girl would come to Tahno's aid, having a towel and started to gently wipe his face. Then, she went down to his mostly bare chest, at first doing it smoothly, but then she eventually got more aggressive because she was so close to the most fabulous man on the planet. Tahno moved his hand to take the towel out of the girl's hands, but she was reluctant to give it up. Using his strength, Tahno snatched the towel away from the girl, turning back to her as his eyes got really big. That was basically telling her to step back without actually saying it.

With the girl conceding, Tahno threw his towel at the crowd of people that were in the restaurant, all of the girls now diving to the floor to get his towel. Some of them even began to fight for it, while some of the men had already fainted by this time. Screams of crazy fangirls fighting over Tahno's towel would be the traumatizing sound that Sonic, Korra, Mako, Bolin, Asami, Tails, Blaze, and Knuckles will all hear in their nightmares for a very, very long time.

When Tahno finally made his way to the group, he stared at them smugly, mainly at the trio of Korra, Mako, and Bolin. "The pathetic Fire Ferrets, eh? I certainly wasn't expecting you guys to be here." he said, his smirk oozing with arrogance. He would turn to Mako and Bolin. "You guys are lucky that the Avatar joined you. Before she joined, you guys were nothing but bums."

Mako and Bolin gritted their teeth, but then they noticed Tahno was slowly making his way towards Korra, getting extremely close to her. "How about you ditch these guys, Avatar? That way, I can show you a real pro bender. I can even give you some private lessons."

Korra slowly got up, being mere centimeters away from Tahno's face and was so, so tempted to punch him into another dimension. "Sorry, but I'm not interested, pretty boy."

Tahno didn't seem phased by the comment, though. "Sure you are. It's okay to express your love for me. It's not out of the ordinary, as you can see." He was referring to the madness going on in the background with the girls still fighting over his towel.

"Korra, don't attack him. He's trying to bait you. If you do, we're out of the tournament." Mako said, knowing how aggressive Korra can be with her 'hit first, ask questions later' attitude. It was true, Korra couldn't jeopardize their tournament hopes since she was on the team.

However, there was one person that shared the same, 'hit first, ask questions later' mindset, and he wasn't on the Fire Ferrets.

Sonic would get up, getting in between Tahno and Korra. "She said she's not interested, pal. I'm beginning to think that you might be deaf. Heck, maybe stupid. Can't decide which one."

Tahno's eyes moved to Sonic after his statement, trying to intimidate him. "What? Is this your girlfriend or something?"

Sonic, ignoring that last part, clearly wasn't intimidated in the slightest. "All I know is that if you don't get outta here and leave her alone, things are gonna get real ugly."

The group became wide eyed at this, Sonic and Tahno now being in a stare down of some sorts. There was a really good chance that they were going to fight due to both of their stubborn natures.

And Korra wasn't going to let that happen.

She brought her hands to her mouth, whistling for Naga to come, and Naga indeed made herself known. Naga's head burst out the window that was behind Korra, the shutters opening as the polar bear dog made a massive roar that scared the ever-living crap out of Tahno and his group. Heck, even Pabu joined in on the roar while being on top of Naga's head. Pabu's roar wasn't nearly as powerful, but hey, the more the merrier.

Tahno stumbled back, not expecting for some random polar bear dog to come out the window like that. Afterwards, he made a mental note to himself. They may have won this battle, but if they meet each other in the tournament, then he will do whatever he can do to utterly destroy them.

He gave one last smirk, before walking away with his group.

Now, as for the main group…

They couldn't contain their laughter whatsoever.

"I've never seen Tahno that scared before!" Bolin said, feeling like he had witnessed the greatest moment of his lifetime. "I gotta say, you are one of a kind, Korra."

Korra grinned at Bolin's compliment, as Sonic wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "She sure is." Sonic agreed, Korra now laughing as she put her arm around Sonic's shoulder, the two smiling at each other.

"You're one of a kind too, ya know." Korra told Sonic, smirking as she lightly punched his chest with her free hand. "You had me thinking you were actually gonna fight for a second."

"Oh, I was," Sonic confirmed. "In a way, Naga saved him and beat him at the same time. He got off easy." he said, everyone laughing at that statement.

Everything was right with the world.

For now.

END OF CHAPTER 12: SUPERMAN LOVER

BGM: Sonic R – Number One

Bolin: Finally, it's tournament time!

Mako: Didn't you say that in the other preview?

Korra: I think the author might be saving that for the next chapter.

Bolin: Darn it, Author. Be clearer next time!

Sonic: I wouldn't say that to him if I were you…

Next time on Don't Think Twice!

The Announcement

Knuckles: I'M GOING TO BE DOING WHAT?!

Author's Note: Well, there it is everybody. Chapter 12 is done. If you're wondering where the whole pimp Tahno thing came from, it was inspired off a scene from the movie Roll Bounce, where Sweetness made his entrance. If you've seen the movie, you know what I'm talking about, lol. Tahno's personality was definitely exaggerated in this chapter, but that was specifically for comedy purposes.

As always, if you like what you read, leave a follow and a favorite. Don't forget to READ AND REVIEW! Love you guys, and see y'all next chapter!
