Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Legend of Korra.
A/N: Still let me know if you want Naruto to learn Lava bending and/or flying without a staff learning both as been what's requested and in the lead but will still take 'Votes' until the end of this season. And I will only count one vote per account/person.
And I won't count guest reviews if you can do multiple reviews under that after signing out/spam if you don't have an account. ALSO, I have a quick poll up on if Naruto should learn Rasenshurken for Maelstrom Jedi. There's Yes. Or No jutsu and Force are enough. It'll go down after 2 Chs for each story (One now for this) or until we get to ep 3/4 of season 3 of Ultimate Spider-Man.

Book Two
Spirits
Chapter V
The Sting.
Someone has attacked the Southern Water Tribe cultural center. All the evidence points to Northern sympathizers, but Mako and Naruto suspect there's more to this case. Meanwhile, Varrick has cast Bolin as the hero of his newest mover. Asami has also ventured into business with Varrick, and a shipment of her mecha-tanks is on its way to help the South in its war against Unalaq.
Night, Sea.
A man in blue clothes watched from the upper deck of a ship before bombs fell onto the shipping container.
Boom-Boom-Boom!
He shielded his face with his arm before one hit behind him revealing it was stuck to putty. He jumped over the railing and slid down a pipe just as it blew.
Boom!
"We're under attack!" He yelled just as four waterbenders came up via a wave.
Later, the crew is on an inflatable raft looking at the ship as smoke comes off it. "Varrick is not gonna be happy about this."
Southern Spirit Portal.
Eska and Desna stood at the portal as a wooden wall and watchtowers surrounded it. "Where is he?"
"Father said he would meet us at this location. He'll be here." Desna replied as they looked behind them. Suddenly Unalaq walked out of the portal having his kids turn to them. "Were you just in the spirit world?"
"Never mind that. Where is the Avatar?" Unalaq spoke walking past them before Eska explained.
"She was within our grasp until a dark spirit attacked her."
"They're out of control."
"You didn't get her?" Unalaq turned at that.
"The Avatar is dead," Eska said as her father sighed.
Republic City.
In a theater, the Nuktuk mover is playing as on screen.
Nuktuk walked across with Naga who had black makeup on her legs, eyes, and ears as Pabu sat on her saddle.
They stopped at a boulder at a cliff before looking at a fortress with a skull on it. "We finally made it. Now we must stop the Evil Unalaq!"
The crowd of kids cheered at that as the scene then changed to inside the fortress with an actor playing Unalaq standing at a throne with two guards.
"The Southern Water Tribe is mine. Next, I will conquer the world with my water-bending doomsday device!"
The crowd booed at that while throwing popcorn at the screen before the scene went back to Nuktuk.
"Don't worry, Juji and Roh-Tan, I will end the Evil Unalaq's reign of terror. For I am Nuktuk, hero of the South!"
"Nuktuk, you're not just the hero of the South, you're our best friend." Pabu/Juji 'spoke' in a high voice before Naga/Rho-Tan 'spoke' in a male's voice.
"Nuktuk-ity!"
"You two are the best snow raccoon and arctic panda a guy could ask for."
A song then played with different scenes of Bolin using water bending, or fighting men and Unalaq with a man singing.
Who's gonna fight for friends and freedom?
Nuktuk
He's the biggest, baddest bendingest man I know
Who protects the icy tundra? Nuktuk
Battling northies out there in the snow
when Unalaq starts trouble he'll punch him in the mouth
He's Nuktuk, the hero of the South
The kids cheered as Varrick leaned on Bolin from their VIP seats. "Bolin, look up there. What do you see"
"I… is this a trick question?"
"I'll tell you what I see… A star being born. You're a star. People love stars. Stars tell them what to think and how to act. Bolin, have you ever tried to force a monkey-marmot to ride a bicycle?" Varrick asked, confusing Bolin.
"Uh... Not that I can recall."
"Of course, you haven't. You can't force monkey-marmots to do anything. They've got to want to do it themselves." Varrick explained having Bolin blink.
"… Right."
"With these movers, we'll have the support of the people, and before long, they'll persuade the president to lend his troops to the war effort." Varrick finished as Unalaq laughed when men brought Ginger to him.
"My evil plan is working. I've captured Nuktuk's beautiful girlfriend."
"Not so fast, Evil Unalaq!" Nuktuk said, bursting in on Roh-Tan. "Oh, I will save my true love and the South!" He was then lifted in the air via a rope behind him. He landed in front of Roh-Tan before throwing his arm out, having a stream of water off screen come and hit the men away. "And now, your time is up."
Four men walked over before all of them walked off screen to show their shadows fighting with Nuktuk throwing one man away. He then shot water at another as the last two grabbed a net and threw it. The scene switched to show Nuktuk and the animals in the net before Unalaq walked over.
"It's no use fighting, Nuktuk. My anti-energy net makes bending impossible."
"No! Please. Power… Weakening." Nuktuk weakly said before Rho-Tan spoke.
"Nuk-terrible."
Just then a narrator spoke up.
"Will this be the end of Nuktuk? Can he escape from Unalaq's trap and save the beautiful Ginger? Find out next week on The Adventures of Nuktuk: Hero of the South."
The mover ended with Nuktuk holding Ginger pointed as 'Nuktuk, Hero of the South' written in Chinese.
"Wow. We got some major chemistry on-screen. Am I right?" Bolin asked Ginger who just got up and left.
"Yeah. On-screen."
"What's wrong? Are you mad because I left you in the clutches of the Evil Unalaq? I'm gonna save you in the next episode. Ginger, let's work through this." Bolin begged looking back before Zhu Li walked to Varrick.
"Varrick, another one of your ships has been captured."
"Darn it, Zhu Li, haven't I told you I hate getting bad news without first getting good news?"
"Oh, well, the good news is it looks like your first mover has gotten a great reception." She replied as he crossed his arms.
"That's old news! Let's go." He said before walking out of the room
Police HQ.
"Is it true?"
Asami asked Mako walking into a room in front of the interrogation room.
"I'm so sorry. Your entire shipment was stolen."
"Without that sale, I don't know how much longer I can keep my company going. What am I gonna do?" She asked, looking down before Mako sighed.
"Don't worry. We're gonna find whoever's responsible. Chief Beifong and Naruto are about to question the captain of the ship."
They turned to see Naruto and Lin with the two detectives talking to the captain of the boat.
"I know it's been a long day, but walk me through what happened," Lin asked as Naruto crossed his arms.
"We were ambushed a couple of clicks outside the harbor. We never heard them coming."
"This is the third attack this week. At about the same location." Naruto spoke looking at the chief.
"Yep, and smack-dab in Republic city's jurisdiction, which means another problem for us. All this stress is gonna turn old black beauty gray." The dark-haired detective said, messing with his mustache.
"Yeah well, you're cops, it comes with the job," Naruto spoke up before looking at Lin. "It's not the Northern Tribe, Unalaq wouldn't risk getting the city forces involved." Naruto then raised a hand to look at the other detective. "And if they wanted to halt supply lines they would wait until it gets in water that's not in any jurisdiction… Yes, there's the fact he's staying in the South so I'd doubt he would risk not taking supplies for his men at the very least. But again, he wouldn't risk any other nation getting involved."
"Is there anything else about the attack you remember?" Lin asked the captain, not being able to argue Naruto's point.
"Anything unusual? There is one thing. The bombs exploded in a way I have never seen before. They didn't have fuses. It was like they were being detonated remotely."
"Like the bombs at the cultural center." Naruto mused as Mako ran out before Varrick walked in. "Zira found the guys responsible, said some guy in a cloak bribed them to attack unseen to blame the Northern Tribe."
"Why would anyone frame the Northern Tribe?" The first detective asked as Naruto sighed.
"Someone who sees profits in funding the war," Naruto replied before Looking back at Varrick and Asami.
"Asami, I heard the news. I can't believe they took my fifth favorite ship in the Varrick industries fleet! Named her after my mom. Rest in peace, rocky bottom."
"Without the money from that shipment, Future Industries is almost broke."
"Chief Beifong, I'll let you know if we find anything else," Naruto spoke up before going to the door.
Later, he was talking to Mako and Asami about a plan. "A sting operation?" Naruto asked as they walked out of the building.
"I was thinking we'd set up a bait ship, take it out into the open ocean, and capture whoever attacks it."
"Let's do it," Asami spoke as Naruto looked at her.
"It's not that easy… We'll need a ship and supplies… Plus we'll have to be careful on who to get. As I said inside, Zira found out the man at the culture center was bribed. So, there's no telling who else could be."
"First of all, we'd need a ship."
"Aah!" The three yelled as Varrick appeared beside them
"You need a ship? I got a ship. I want in on whatever you're talking about. I love being in on plans." Varrick spoke before Mako looked at him.
"The less you know, the better."
"Perfect! I love not knowing things."
"All right, I'm in," Mako said to the two. "Let's get these guys."
"I'll get my men," Naruto said walking away. "I'll meet you at the dock."
Dusk, Harbor.
Naruto wearing a black shirt and jeans walked with Zira who was wearing a red shirt and tight black pants walked with a group of men and women dressed in civilian clothing.
He walked up to the ship and to the cargo to see plans and the Mecha Tanks before seeing Asami and Mako. "The ship's all loaded with the dummy crates. Let's get this sting operation going."
"I'll go talk to Bolin," Mako spoke up before leaving before Naruto turned to Zira.
"Zira, have a person at the bow, stern, port side, and starboard."
"Right sir." Zira saluted at that before leaving.
Several Hours Later, Sea.
Naruto was hiding in a lifeboat before seeing a group of men get on board before lights came on. Naruto's men dropped on the ground revealing a man in blue clothing, one in green and another in gray.
"Who hired you, Viper?" Naruto asked the man in gray before he was spat on. Wiping his cheek, Naruto then grabbed the man and brought him to the edge before throwing him over the rail, and grabbed his ankle. "Can you swim?"
"You can't do this!"
"Ah, I'm off duty, and we're outside of the city's jurisdiction. I had my man speed out into international waters as soon as the lights came on. Now… Who hired you? Or do you wanna take a chance with a dark spirit? I hear they're common out here."
"Alright, alright!" Naruto then brought him back up as he was surrounded by fire and water benders. "It was some guy. Said his boss wanted us to keep attacking so he could get Future Industries to sign with him!"
Naruto glanced at Asami at that, before sighing. "Let's get a warrant for his arrest and for checking his apartment. Glad I had Lin guard your warehouse."
Varrick Industries.
Naruto wearing his chest armor with his badge walked in to see Bolin sitting on a chair eating popcorn. "Bolin, where is Varrick?" Bolin ignored him as he closed his eyes. "Bolin?" Bolin still said nothing, having Naruto pinch his nose. "Bolin, I'm on Task Force business, you don't speak up now and I'll throw your ass in jail for obstructing justice."
"Whoa hey, I thought we were friends Naruto," Bolin spoke up, before standing.
"We are Bolin, but I got a warrant for Varrick. We have evidence he was the one attacking Asami's shipments as well as finding plans he was going to kidnap the President and blame Unalaq to get Raiko to back the South. Now, where. Is. Varrick?"
Later, Naruto brought Varrick out in cuffs before putting him in an armored truck before being swarmed by reporters. "We have found evidence that Mr. Varrick was involved with some attacks as well as a plot of kidnapping… That's all I'll say."
Naruto then got in the driver's seat before starting the truck and drove off.
(Flashback End.)
Korra.
Korra groaned as she woke to see trees above her. Two of the three members of the Bhanti, are carrying her on a stretcher, running toward a temple. Once they got inside, they saw an old woman inside who turned around before the female sage spoke up. "We found the Avatar washed up onshore, but she doesn't remember anything."
The other two put Korra on a table as she mutters. "Raava. Raava. Raava."
The older woman then creates fire from her palms and waves her hands around Korra. "A dark energy has infected her. We must purge it before it destroys her Avatar Spirit."
Later, they're in a cave with a large hole in the ground with light coming up. The Sages then lower Korra down revealing she's being lowered into subterranean spirit waters. "Let the waters cleanse the darkness that plagues your spirit."
The large pool of water is lit with light shining up from below as Korra touches the surface, the hammock keeping her face above water.
Dreamworld.
Korra opens her eyes and sees she's surrounded by a purple light before seeing her reflection in front of her, engulfed in blue light.
"Who are you?"
"I am you." Her reflection replied as Korra blinked.
"Who am I?" She asked as an adult Aang replaced her reflection.
"You are the Avatar."
Korra just stared at him. "I don't know what that is."
Suddenly, an elderly fire bender man took Aang's place. "In order to remember, you must regain your connection with your Avatar Spirit."
Then he changed into a woman in armor and white face paint on. "If you don't, darkness will engulf the world. You will die, and our era will end."
"How do I regain my connection?"
The woman then changed into a water-bending male with a beard. "Go back. Return to the beginning. Find Raava."
Korra is pushed away by a strong current of water and bubbles. She frowns in discomfort as her body flips around, but the current quickly stops. She then turns around and sees a man in front of a circle of light. He has fair skin, spiked-up brown hair, copper eyes, and is wearing simple clothing of an orange shirt and brown pants.
"Are you Raava?"
"No, but I can help you find her. My name is Wan, and I will show you how I became the first Avatar." Wan said before a bright light blinded Korra.
To Be Continued.
