My arm had to be put in a cast and my grandmother healed it as much as possible for me when we went to see her in the south. She and I worked on Korra, trying everything we could possibly think of in terms of trying to restore her bending, but nothing was working. "Gran-Gran, Amon took away Korra's bending with blood-bending, surely the only thing that can restore it is blood-bending itself." I tried to reason with her but she wouldn't hear of it, telling me sharply that such a practice was forbidden so I kept my mouth shut and looked away. I hadn't told her that I had used blood-bending on Amon, how could I? She'd be so ashamed of me and disappointed. Even a little horrified by the fact that I didn't care.

After hours of trying, we still found nothing new so I crashed to the ground, flopping down in front of Korra who hung her head. "This isn't over yet Korra." I told her stubbornly as she lifted her head and looked into my deadly serious gaze. "There are still things we can try and even if Gran-Gran isn't willing, I can research blood-bending techniques. If I can just understand how Amon severed the connection, I can undo it. I know I can. If not then…well then we'll keep on trying. We haven't tried any spiritual healing, after all. Maybe if you connected to the previous Avatars they would be able to help you." I reasoned however I could tell that she wasn't really listening.

Falling silent I watched as she stood up hopelessly and stepped outside, pausing to look at everyone before walking away. "It's going to be all right, Korra." Tenzin tried to reassure her as she walked past but Korra did not even lift her head.

"No, it's not." I flinched at the sound of her hopelessness however it only made me more determined to help her. I can fix this. I have to fix this. Korra wasn't Korra without her bending, it was her entire life. Sighing wearily as I lingered at the door I looked up to Asami who looked saddened by the fact that Mako had gone after Korra. I heard that they'd broken up. Had to say I was both surprised and not surprised considering the way he's been acting around Korra lately, I felt sorry for Asami.

"So what can we do? There has to be something!" Lin reasoned as everyone else looked around, hoping for answers. Ikki and Jinora came over to me, hugging my waist and legs depending on where they could reach and I naturally placed my arms around them.

"We can attempt to connect Korra to the Avatar State." I reasoned wisely and all eyes turned to me. "As far as I can tell, her connection to the past Avatars would not have been affected by whatever it was Amon did to Korra, maybe they'll be able to advise her. If not, then there have to be spirits in this world that can help her, we just have to find them." The sound of my strong voice seemed to bring comfort to everyone as they relaxed a little. "We're not giving up."

"That's right, never surrender!" Meelo agreed, making me chuckle as Tenzin passed him over to me.

"I'm going to go and see Korra, perhaps she needs just a little guidance and counselling." He said thoughtfully, making me arch an eyebrow as Meelo climbed all over my head and shoulders.

"No offense uncle, but Korra needs a little space now. You can go bring Mako back though, he shouldn't be pestering Korra when she's like this. I can go after her later, but for now Korra will need time to adjust to this. Being the Avatar meant everything to her, this is going to be difficult for her to accept." I reasoned and my uncle nodded his head in understanding, heading outside as Bolin fidgeted nervously.

"So…Korra's going to be okay, right?" This time I didn't answer, not entirely sure what to say. Gran-Gran patted my shoulder gently, understanding how tired I was as we'd both been working on trying to heal Korra for the past four hours continuously. I was only sorry nothing had worked. We'd tried clearing her chakra flow, searching for blockages or abnormalities but nothing. Absolutely nothing. I kind of wished I could find Amon and make him tell me exactly how he'd done it. It had to be something to do with chi blocking, just like those soldiers he'd hired. Pressure points. I bet it was something also to do with pressure points. If I can just learn from them, then I might be able to fix this. "Shouldn't we go after Korra or something?" Bolin fussed as he tickled Pabu.

"No, not right now. Let's just…I don't know." My brain had melted to mush so Asami came over and made me sit down, pulling Meelo off my head and Pema fussed over me as I tried to stifle a yawn. We barely talked, no one in the mood for conversation even after Tenzin came back, however after a while I heard snow crunching under foot and Mako flung open the doors.

"Everybody come look! Korra got her bending back!" Instantly I was up on my feet and running, pushing past Mako to find Korra standing outside the earth meditation facility with her back to me.

"Korra!" I called out her name and she turned, giving me a smile.

"You were right Kanna, I just needed to connect to my Avatar State. Aang helped me with his spirit-bending, he helped me get my bending back." She told me and held out her hand which held a small flame. "Thanks for not giving up on me."

"Hooray!" Cheering excitedly I leaped forwards and flung my arms around Korra, hugging her tightly before drawing back quickly. "Ow! Ow! My arm still hurts." I flinched, gripping my shoulder as I pouted at the broken bone before beaming at Korra. "But this is amazing! I knew you could do it Korra, nothing keeps you knocked down for long, am I right?" Gripping her hand securely we leaned against one another as she finally let go of all the tension she'd been carrying around with her these past few days.

"That's true, but now I've got my bending back, I can also help those who were affected by Amon. Chief Beifong?" Korra turned towards Lin who blinked before walking forwards so I quickly hopped down, turning to watch as Lin knelt down and Korra placed one hand on her shoulder and the other against her brow, concentrating before suddenly her eyes glowed with an eerie white which I had never seen before. My mouth dropped open a little, staring as Korra returned Lin's bending to her and when she pulled back, Lin rose up and flung out her hands, lifting all the stones that circled the meditation room effortlessly and the kids all cheered in celebration. I relaxed into a smile, pushing back my beaded and braided hair. She'd finally done it. Korra was finally a full Avatar with access to her Avatar state. Look out everyone, because Korra is better than ever before.
