AN: Hello again readers!

Answer question time!

Question by Howy: 1. I loved the fight i liked axis merging with the spirit is she the only one who can do that or anyone?

2. Also is axis interested in korra romanticly

Answer: 1 Axis can merge with Spirits and because she's a Voodoo Master ((I am aware that it does not exist in LoK, but this is an AU and a FF :P )) she's able to summon spirits to help her and can choose which abilty she will be using from that certain spirit.

2. Axis feels love for Korra yeah, no doubt, but its more complicated than that. Axis was pretty much Korra's only friend when she grew up in this story. When Korra became a teenager and had raging hormones going insane inside her body, Axis was there to teach her what she needed to know. Its a sort of, friends with benefits thing but with actual feelings tossed in the mix. Axis wants Korra to be happy and she doesnt care in what way she can bring her friend that happyness.

Many worried Guest readers: This will be a Korrasami fic! No worries!

Lee: Thanks for your review again, its was appreciated. For now I am pausing with battle scenes because I am almost 100% sure there wont be any anymore in this story. If I, in the future, plan on making any, I'm sure to let you know :)

Thanks for the reviews and PM's :) they are very appreciated!

Warning: tiny bit of sexual themes coming.

Chapter 5

Hours passed by while the three young women slept peacefully. The sun had already set for several hours when Korra woke up. She rubbed her eyes and blinked a few times. Her gaze slid through their quarters and stopped at Axis's empty bed.

She looked down at Asami who was still sleeping peacefully. She chuckled and gently lifted the vixen's head off of her torso and placed it tenderly on top of a soft pillow. She sat at the edge of the bed for a few seconds before she got up. She grabbed the water pouch that had fallen onto the floor and uncorked it. She eagerly drank from the liquid and sighed satisfied. She put the cork back in and placed the pouch next to Asami so she could easily reach it if needed.

The captain's corpse had been removed. Judging from the blood trail that started at the desk and went all the way up to the door. She opened the door and stepped outside. Closing it behind her again as silently as she could. She looked around the deck and smiled when she saw Axis standing next to the wooden banister of the ship. Her eyes towards the ocean. She noticed that there were two sacks laying at her feet as she made her way over to her friend.

"{Morning...}" she said and wrapped her arms around her friends waist.

"{Morning to you too sleepyhead...}" Axis said. She looked over her shoulder back at Korra, a bright smile present on her face. She turned around in the Avatar's arms. She had her left arm in a triangular bandage. "{Your father pieced my shoulder blade back together but I'm not allowed to do any heavy lifting for the coming weeks.}"

Korra's eyes saddened as they roamed over her friends injured body. She bit her lower lip anxiously. She saw the bloodied bandages around Axis's shoulder where Garuh's weapon had pierced her flesh. Her gaze slid down over her arms and to her forearm that rested in the sling. It was wrapped in bandages as well. she had managed to close the deep cut and stop the bleeding but she had found no time to treat her burn wounds.

"{I'm so... sorry Axis...}" she whispered, her voice cracked from emotion.

Her friend blinked confused. "{What for...?}" she asked and raised an eyebrow.

"{All this...}" she said and gestured to her wrapped up arm.

Axis looked at her arm and then back at her friend. "{Korra... I was aware of the risks when I decided to join you.}" she put her hand under Korra's chin and forced her to look at her. "{I'm not sorry, and neither should you.}"

Korra felt tears burn in her eyes. Her hands moved up and cupped Axis's face. Her friend knew what was coming and closed her eyes when the Avatar brought their lips together in a deep kiss.

Axis had to lean down as the kiss deepened. Her arm wrapped around Korra's waist and pulled her closer. She felt her lips part and slipped her soft tongue in the welcoming mouth of her younger friend.

Korra moaned silently as their tongues touched. She took a deep breath through her nose and pushed her body against the taller woman's form. Her arms now wrapped around the others neck. She felt an aching throb between her thighs the longer they continued.

Axis eventually pulled back and let out a breath she didn't realize she was holding. She swallowed hard and cleared her throat.

The shorter woman had a deep blush on her face but didn't had the intention to move away. They held each other and stayed like this for a few more minutes. She was the first to break the silence. "{I had a dream about us...}"

Axis began stroking Korra's back with the hand of her healthy arm. "{Tell me about it...}"

"{I relived the night we had two weeks ago...}" she muttered.

Axis swallowed again. She nodded absentmindedly. "{You... did enjoy it... didn't you?}" she asked hesitantly.

"{I did, yes.}" she whispered. "{And all the other times it happened as well...}"

Axis chuckled softly and scratched the back of Korra's neck playfully. "{We'll be docking at Roku's Island today... there are hot springs...}" she nipped at Korra's neck before she continued. "{I can make you feel good again...}" she said with a seductive tone. She felt her friend shiver.

"{Y-yes... I'd... like that...}" she kissed Axis's lips swiftly before she stepped back. They gazed at each other before the taller woman broke eye contact and focussed on the sacks that laid near her feet.

She kicked the one at her right and smiled. "{This one's yours. I took the liberty to loot your kills for you, after I was done with my own.}"

Korra smiled happily and took the sack from the wooden surface. "{Heavy. I guess we did well.}" she hung the sack over her healthy shoulder. "{I'll go check on our guest. You coming too?}"

She shook her head. "{Nah, I'll stay here for a while. I'm enjoying the sunshine.}" she said with a grin. "{I'll check the galley later to see if there's any grub left. I'll tell them to bring some to you two.}"

"{Thanks, I'll be seeing you later then.}" she said, turned around and headed back to their quarters.

When she entered, Asami was still asleep. Her pale arms wrapped around one of the pillows. She smiled at the heiress and took the time to take in the woman's features. She sat down on the edge of the bed and filled a cup with water from the pouch. She put the pouch back next to Asami who pushed her face just a little bit more against the pillow she held.

Korra chuckled and bend the water from the cup onto her right hand. It started to glow again and she brought it to the wound of her left shoulder. She sighed in relief when the water touched her skin. The stinging pain she had felt subsided immediately.

She worked on the wound a little longer. The gentle motions of her hand and the healing water had a much needed soothing effect. Her gaze turned to the heiress when she felt her stir under the sheets.

A deep sigh followed and ever so slowly, her eyes started to open up. She blinked a few times and her eyes eventually stopped on Korra who was smiling brightly at her. Asami couldn't help but smile back. "Morning..." she whispered. Her throat felt rather dry and she had some trouble to swallow.

"Morning..." Korra gently pushed the water pouch a little closer to the black haired beauty.

"thank you." She mumbled, her voice sounded a bit raspy. She quickly chugged down the fresh water and her throat felt instantly better. She cleared her throat and settled the pouch back next her on the bed. She sat with her back against the headboard. She was still wearing Korra's parka that the younger woman had given her some days ago.

"How you feel now?" Korra asked as she continued to work on her shoulder.

"Better, much better even." She smiled warmly at the Southerner.

"Good... I happy to hear... that." She bent the water back in the small cup that stood on the nightstand. "Hungry?" she asked and shifted into the lotus position on the bed.

Asami reached to her stomach, which growled by the slightest mention of food, with one hand and blushed. "A bit... sorry."

Korra chuckled and raised her hand. "No sorry. Axis come with food."

Asami tilted her head slightly sideways. "Who's Axis...?"

"Oh... uh... she my best friend. She help... uhm... {save... damnit...} she help, us." Korra was struggling to find the right words.

She blinked surprised. "She did? I didn't see her with the others...-"

The vixen was cut off with a knock on the door. Both heads turned towards the door that was opened from the other side. Axis poked her head through the door. "{Room service is here!}" she had a wide grin on her face and pushed against the door to open it just a little further. Two water tribe warriors came in and placed three trays of food on the desk that stood in the middle of the big room. They got out right afterwards again. Leaving the three women to their meals.

Axis had already stepped inside before the door was closed. She headed towards the two girls that sat on the bed. Dark blue and turquoise met emerald green. "Hello Miss Sato, it's a pleasure to finally meet you." She smiled down at the black haired beauty and reached her a hand.

Asami looked up at the tall woman. She slowly reached her hand to the other and Axis took the lily white hand in her darker one. "I... uh... i-it's a pleasure... yes..." Axis let go of her hand and the heiress slowly placed it back on her lap. She let her eyes linger on the Southerner's face a little longer. They noticed a small piercing just below her lower lip. She also noticed an earring, that had a small feather attached to it, in her right earlobe.

Axis gave a tray to both Korra and Asami before she sat down on a chair that she had pulled closer to the bed. "You look like you've seen a Dark Spirit." She mentioned to the heiress who blinked rapidly.

"S-sorry... I didn't know that you spoke my language..." she blushed again and looked at the tray of food on her lap instead.

"Thought as much... it's alright, I don't really get the chance to use it."

Korra poked her friends ribs. "{Stop talking so fast! I can't follow if you do.}" she muttered and poked her roasted fish with the fork she had been given.

Axis stuck out her tongue. "{I've told you several times before to continue your studies! Not my fault that you refused to learn from me after I thought you the basics.}"

Korra wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words for a justified response. Instead she grumbled something under her breath and consumed her food faster than she should.

Asami giggled softly. "No idea what that was about... but it sounded funny.."

Axis smirked and ate her food slowly. "She's just being a baby."

"Not true!" Korra said and poked Axis's arm with her fork.

She yelped from the sudden attack. "You'll pay for that..." she had a playful grin plastered on her face. "{Once we get to the hot springs...}"

Korra felt her cheeks burn and had a little trouble with swallowing the piece of food she had in her mouth. "T-t-th...e h-hot spr...ings... y-yes... eheheh..." she muttered and turned her focus on Asami instead. "Y-you want... come t-too?"

Axis raised an eyebrow at her friend. The corners of her mouth curled amused. To avoid embarrassing her friend even more, she kept her mouth shut.

"There are hot springs on the Island we're heading...?" she asked surprised.

"We're only going there to restock on fresh drinking water and food. Before we head of to the Earth Kingdom, where your parents will be eagerly awaiting your arrival..." Axis assured her. "And Korra is right, you should come." She smiled genuine at the heiress and meant what she said.

She returned the smile. "I might... but I'll rest a bit more. My body does need some extra hours of rest. I'll come and find you two after a short nap."

The trio remained in their quarters a little longer. Axis laughed each time when Korra tried to speak the common tongue and made mistakes. Asami simply smiled warmly at the young southerner and told her the correct words, which Korra then repeated. Of course to great amusement for the other two.

An hour later and Asami had positioned herself with some pillows behind her back as she listened how the two friends argued over what Water Tribe dish was best. Slowly she drifted off to sleep and it took the other two a little while before they even noticed.

They decided to head out and gathered some small essentials before they silently slipped out of the door. They checked on Tonraq and asked him if he needed their help. He shook his head and told them to enjoy their time on the island. They had surely deserved it. Axis had wrote down some words on a small piece of parchment. She asked Tonraq to give it to Asami once the heiress would feel fit enough to follow them.

So they did. They left the ship and walked over the docks. On the path that would lead them to the volcano if they would continue straight forward.

Halfway they turned right and found themselves surrounded by lush forest. The trail went on for another fifteen minutes before they finally arrived at the hot springs.

It was an amazing sight. There were several different plateaus on different levels. The ones that were at their level had the best temperatures to bathe in. They were all connected by small streams or little waterfalls.

They decided to take one that had a small waterfall that connected the little spring to the one a level higher. Axis knelt down on one knee and put a hand into the water. "{Perfect...}" she muttered before she stood up straight again. She turned around and was about to say something. Whatever the words had been that she planned to say, they were lost when Korra's lips locked with hers in a passionate kiss.

The taller woman lost her balance and they both tumbled backwards and landed in the warm water.

Neither of them cared and both were lost in their own little world. Exchanging feverish kisses. Hands roamed over clothes that were quickly removed and tossed aside. Axis groaned when she had to lift her injured arm to get rid of her shirt but she quickly turned her focus back to the younger woman before her. She felt two hands that cupped her face and pulled her down. "{Promise me... promise me you'll always stay with me A...xis...}"

Axis felt a momentarily hesitation from her friend's side when she mentioned her name. She choose to ignore it and nodded. "{I promise...}"

Lips crashed together again. Bodies were pressed tightly against one another as they continued their passionate game between two lovers.

Asami woke up an hour after the two Southerners had left. She got up slowly and groaned. She still felt a bit tired but wouldn't want to miss out on the hot springs either. She made her way over to the door and walked out with a little trouble. She looked around the deck and waved at Tonraq who waved back once he noticed her. He gestured her to come to him and she walked over to Korra's father.

He handed her the small piece of parchment that Axis had given him. She was surprised but smiled when she saw that it was written on it. Axis had left behind a little route description so she would find them easier. She thanked Tonraq and made her way over to the docks. Her legs still a bit wobbly. She needed to get used to it again, being on land and walking around in general.

As she followed the same path that the other two had walked on earlier, she kept an eye on her surroundings. The island was beautiful. Tall trees. Thick bushes. Birds that sang somewhere hidden in the tree tops. She turned a right and made her way through the bushes.

As she moved aside a branch, her eyes fell onto something she had not expected to see. She saw the two Southerners. Their arms around one another. Scratch marks decorated Axis's back. Their breasts were pressed together as they shared a deep and passionate kiss.

Soft lips moved to Korra's neck and nibbled on a particular ticklish point of her skin. She giggled softly and opened her eyes. Sapphires locked with Emeralds. They eyes of both girls were wide in shock and Korra felt like her heart stopped beating.

AN: I understood many readers think this isnt a Korrasami ff, it is, no worries :)
