Observatory…" A voice echoed. "Find the Observatory Korra…"
"T-The what?" Korra yelled back out, she was in some sort of cave, dimly lit, barely seeing 5 feet in front of her. She kept trying to go towards the voice but it got father and father.
"The observatory Korra…" It whispered at last.
LOK
Korra woke up, rising slowly from her bed and sitting up. She looked around still a little dazed from her dream. "H-how did I end up in the bed? And what is the observatory?" Korra looked around again, making sure nothing was out of the ordinary. She looked over to where Asami should have been lying, but the space was empty. "Princess?" Korra called out.
Asami sauntered out of the bath room, only in one of korra's pirate shirts. "I hope you don't mind captain, I need something to put on, my clothes smell horrid. And I didn't really pack for this unexpected vacation. " Asami said with a small laugh.
"No, no, yer fine Sami." Korra said wiping the sleep out of her eye.
"Korra?" Asami said
"Yes m'lady?" Korra said putting on her pants.
"What is the observatory?"
Korra stopped and looked over to her "What do you mean?"
"I'm not sure but you kept saying it last night and then slept walk into the bed."
"Oh so that's how I got up here."
"Yeah I thought you were about to misbehave until I realized you were sleep still."
"To answer yer question, I'm not all sure about it, i'll have a word with Mako about that layter."
"Captain one more thing."
"Yes Asami?"
"I need more clothes and shoes, only pair I have are my bedroom shoes."
"Aye, aye. We will go out and find something to suit thy." Korra said finally getting dressed and putting her captain's hat on with her signature blue feather." Meet me at the Tavern when yer all done. I need to have a talk with Mako." Asami nodded her head and with that Korra left."
LOK
Korra walked up the dirt path that led to the Tavern, she spotted Bolin and Mako and headed straight for them. "Mornin hearties." She said as leaned against the rail by them
"Aye Korra" Mako said nodding his head.
"Mornin cappy." Bolin said happily.
Korra turned her head and looked at him and smiled
"What you happy fer?" Korra asked.
"Me and Opal had sex last night."
"My boy's all grown up!" Korra said slapping him on the back. "Now you can crack jenny's teacup a few times." She winked at him.
"Nah I think Opal is the one for me."
"Don't be a hoe like Korra, Bolin." Mako stepped in.
"Fair." Korra said. "Bo, if that is the sea to yer land, than jaysus mate you sail her until you die."
"Thanks Korra." Bolin said."I'm gonna go find Opal." With that he was off. That boy is love struck.
Korra turned to face Mako. "What is it?" Mako asked feeling her aura change.
"I-I have to ask you about something." She said taking a seat at an empty table. He followed suit and eyed her.
"What is it Korra?"
"Have you ever heard of The Observatory?" Korra asked looking at him.
Mako was pretty shocked that she asked about this, he knew that it was an old ancient place, where you read about it in books. And he knew her impatient ass didn't read to find out about it.
"Yeah I have some knowledge bout it. Why?" Mako said.
"Well last night I had a dream about it, but I'm not sure what it means."
"Have you heard of the Assassins Brotherhood and The Templars Order?"
"No I can't say I have."
"They are two enemy factions, both wanted to seek out The Observatory. Legend has it that he who finds the matrix piece of the observatory, controls all 4 elements."
"Pfft...You really believe that?" Korra said in disbelief.
"I'm not the one who had the dream." Mako said. He did have a point.
"You have a point." Korra said. "But, how did the become enemies."
"There are many different speculations, One stemming from the killing of Abel by his brother Cain, so he could obtain Abel's apple of eden. Another reason for the war between them could be from the aftermath of Human-Isu War, it was fought between soldier pawns but both had ties and manipulations in the government so that each faction can achieve their aims. But that's all I know about it."
"Do you know more about each faction?"
" I know a few things. The templars wanted to create the perfect world. While the Assassins brotherhood insisted that it would take time for an utopian society to happen, but, the Templars said that the human race is to corrupt for the process to happen for that long. That the human race need a society of people to shepherd then into the right path, them being the society of people. The templars wanted to control free will as a way to save Humanity."
"What kind of Clap of Thunder were they drinkin'? To save human race by controlling free will? We have rights. We have freedoms."
Mako Smiled, "I see now what faction you'd swing towards."
"The Assassins?"
"Aye, They wanted to insure the free will of people and sought to protect the survival of freedom. They thought that it would allow progression of new ideas and growth of individuality."
"Now they're on to somethin' with that." Korra said smiling. "What else do you know?"
"That's pretty much it." Mako said.
"Damn."
"I do have a mate of mine sailing in later, names James Kidd. I hear he's pose to be all into the Assassins brotherhood, I have strong feelings that he might be apart of it also.
"Aye. Let me know when he arrives."
"Aye." Mako said, he looked past Korra and saw the princess walking up. "Princess." He said as he got up to give her his seat. She bowed her head to him and looked over to Korra.
"I'm ready now Captain Korra." Asami said.
"Aye then we be off shall we?" Korra said. "I'll meet you here later Mako."
"Aye." He said and walked off.
LOK
Asami was in the dressing room trying on different dresses. She finally settled on this red flowing dress with black embroidery, it had a kinda of a low neckline showing a bit of cleavage. She looked at herself in the dirty mirror. Checking out every angle. "Perfect." She thought as she smiled to herself. She walked out of the dressing room and found Korra sitting down cleaning out her Flintlocks.
"So how do I look Captain."
Korra looked up and saw Asami standing there, everything just fit so right, in every place. A blush ran across the Captain's face
"Korra. Korrrra." Asami said snapping Korra to reality, she didn't know she was staring. She stood up straight and looked the princess in her eye.
"You look magnificent m'lady." Korra said taking of her hat.
Asami was surprised by the sincerity in her comment, she was use to the pig and misogynistic comments. She blushed and smiled at Korra.
"Thank you." Asami said. She stepped a little closer to Korra and softly smacked her. "That's for starring." Asami said laughing softly.
Korra grabbed her hand softly and smiled. "I'll take that." This gained a blush from Asami as Korra let her hand go. "Let's go, I'm gonna take you Weapons Cabin, so you can have a little protection at all times."
"I can handle myself." Asami stated, as they walked out of the clothing store. Korra was in front of her and turned around unsheathing her sword.
"What are you doing?" Asami said in shock.
"Seeing how much ye can 'handle' yer self." Before Asami could reply Korra lunged at her with the sword. Asami dodged it but wasn't quick enough to evade Korra's second attack. By now Korra was behind her with her cutlass across Asami's neck.
"Princess, you won't get that far without at least one sword." Korra released her and stepped back sheathing her sword once more.
"Aye, aye. You win Captain." Asami said in defeat.
"Korra 1, Asami 0."
"More like Asami 5." Asami started laughing.
"Okay maybe." They walked along in a comfortable silence, checking out the scenery. Asami never got out of the castle much so she was all new to this. She was like a kid in a candy shop. Seeing how vibrant the colors were and how everyone was basking in the warmth of the sun, or huddle in the corner gambling, or a few kids here and there running around chasing animals. It was way different then the dull Castle, only her there with her father and royal guards. Now that she thinks about it, she couldn't remember seeing anything other than the color gray. Maybe it wasn't so bad getting kidnapped. They made their way to the Weapons Shop and went in.
"Aye there, I need a set of cutlass and a flintlock for the lady."
"Yes Captain Korra." The merchant said as he went into the back to fetch the swords, pistols and holsters, A few moments later he came back with the finest pair of swords he had. The handles were made out of gold and had a fire red pattern going in all directions of the handle. Asami was in love. Red has always been her color of choice, but this, this put her in awe.
"It's beautiful." Asami said as she ran her finger over it. Korra smiled at her, not understanding why Asami excitement for the swords also made her excited too.
"We'll take those."
"Aye and the gun?" In contrast to the swords it wasn't as awe inspiring, but it wasnt anything shabby either. It was one just like the ones Korra's had. A golden flintlock.
"The gun too."
"That'll be 5000 reales."
"Aye." Korra just threw some money up there as she was distracted by Asami trying to fix her holsters on. Korra walked over to her and straighten out the holsters that hugged her hips. She grasped the band and slid it across her hips so that both holsters sat symmetric. Asami tried to hide the heat that went to her face when Korra's hand were around her waist.
"Thank you." Asami said turning around. Inches only away from Korra's lips. She didn't realize that they were so close.
"Aye." Korra said almost in a whisper. They stared into each other's eyes. Emerald meeting cobalt, cobalt sinking in emerald.
'Ehem…" The Merchant cleared his throat obviously sensing the unknown tension between them. "Captain you only gave me 4000 reales." Korra reached in her pocket and flicked a gold coin in his direction never taking her eyes of the princess.
"Will that do?" She said after a few moments and looked back at him.
"Y-yes it does. Have a good day." He said as he hurried to the back.
Korra looked back at Asami and then down to the holsters. "Are they comfortable?"
"Yes." Asami said eyes never leaving Korra.
"Alright let's get this last one around your chest. Korra quickly placed it over Asami's chests, she was about to tighten the straps hen Asami's hand moved hers.
"I want it to be on my back not my chest." Asami quickly turned the holster around where the crossing straps that would sit on her back, were now sitting under her breast cupping them. Which made them stand out even more.
"You like?"
"Very." Korra went over to the counter and handed her, her cutlass and flintlock. She placed them in the places and took a look in the mirror.
"Wow, no gown would compare to this outfit." She felt like this is what she was meant to wear.
"I assume you like?" Korra said walking back up to her.
"Aye, I do." Asami turning around to face Korra.
"Aye, lets headed over to the Tavern so everyone can see you."
LOK
Opal, Mako, and Bolin were all at the Tavern, laughing boastfully and drinking. There was gambling going on here and there, some people were up dancing to the band that was playing and others were drunk of their ass ready to fight.
"Aye bucko's." Korra said as she rounded the stairs. They all looked her way and smiled.
"Aye cappy." Bolin said. He then looked past Korra and his jaw dropped.
"Princess?" He said shocked, she looked like a total badass, she even had red lipstick to add effect.
"Aye Bolin, long time no see." She said greeting them.
"Wow you actually remember me?!"
She laughed at his kid like innocence. "Yes I remember you, you and Mako."
"M'lady." Mako said bowing his head.
"Please just call me Asami." She said smiling
"You look so pretty." Opal said sitting next to her. "My names Opal I helped with kidnapping you." She said grinning
Asami laughed "Good to know." The bartender came over and slammed 5 cups down, the liquid splashed everywhere,
"On the house!"
Mako, Opal, Bolin and Korra all yelled "YO HO HO!" and all laughed. All Asami could do was smile and enjoy the excitement. They all downed theirs in one gulp. Asami was still just sitting there enjoying the moment.
"Does the little princess only sip her rum?" Korra said sarcastically, Asami raised an eyebrow and downed the whole mug in 5 seconds flat. She slammed the cup down and yelled
"YO HO HO!" And looked at Korra in the eye, "How was that?"
"Gentlemen, I think I've found the sea to my land." Korra said. They all started laughing and ordered another round. They drank and drank till their hearts content. Korra started tapping her foot to the beat of the music from the band
"A soldier lad came here last night
With riding he was weary
A soldier lad came here last night
And the moon was shining clearly
Korra got up and began jiving around tapping her foot. "C'mon." She grabbed Asami's hand and began jiving with her.
Bonnie lassie, will you gang with me
Bonnie lass, will ye lie near me
I'll get all your ribbons reel
In the morning ere I leave ye
Opal and Bolin followed suit, getting up and dancing with them, even Mako got up and two stepped to the flute.
She's takes the trooper by the hand
And leads him to her chamber
She's given him some wine to drink
And his love it flared like tinder
The danced for the entire song, catching people's attention, most started clapping to the beat while the rest cheered them on
Bonnie lassie, will you gang with me
Bonnie lass, will ye lie near me
I'll get all your ribbons reel
In the morning ere I leave ye
They had not been in bed an hour
An hour but scarce a quarter
But the drums coming up the street
And then the beat was shorter
Its up, up, up, our colonel cried
It's up, up, up and away, then
It's up, up, up, our colonel cried
The morn's our battle day then
Bonnie lassie, will you gang with me
Bonnie lass, will ye lie near me
I'll get all your ribbons reel
In the morning ere I leave ye
It's when will you come back again
My own dear soldier laddie
When will you come back again
And be your bairnie's daddy
Oh, hold your tongue my bonnie wee lass
Never let this parting grieve thee
When heather cows grow oxen bows
Bonnie lassie I'll come see ye
Bonnie lassie, will you gang with me
Bonnie lass, will ye lie near me
I'll get all your ribbons reel
In the morning ere I leave ye
Bonnie lassie, will you gang with me
Bonnie lass, will ye lie near me
I'll get all your ribbons reel
In the morning ere I leave ye
In the morning ere I leave ye
Once the song was over, everyone cheered and clapped for the band. For the next song they decide to take things down a bit to calm everyone down before some left or before some past out where they were. The group sat down and laughed. They all enjoyed a little drunken small talk before heading out different ways, they all said their goodbyes and parted ways.
Asami and Korra basically had to help each other back to their shared room. Once in the room the both started laughing uncontrollably. They both were laying down on the bed facing each other reeking of rum but all they could do was laugh. Korra scooted a little closer. Asami got quiet for a moment then bust out laughing, gaining a few giggles from Korra as well. While Asami was still laughing Korra captured her lips with her own. Asami was shook for a second but in her drunken slur she kissed back. They made out for a few moments. Asami parted her lips so Korra could slide her tongue in. They stayed like that for a few minutes until Korra got on top pinning Asami's wrist down. She was going to kiss down Asami neck and then stopped herself. She soon got up and sat on the edge of the bed. Asami was confused as why the tan pirate got of her.
"What? What's wrong Korra." Asami said sitting up.
"Y-you're my captive. I can't be doing this. This is a job and personal feelings aren't pose to get mixed ye see." Korra said.
Asami came somewhat to her senses still stuck in her drunken stupor. "It's okay Korra I understand. This is only for a few more days anyway. My father'll pay up as soon as he can," Asami still drunk off her shits rolled over to the side of the bed she slept on.
"Captain."
"Aye?" she said looking over to Asami.
"You can sleep in the bed tonight." Asami said sounding like she was about to pass out. She wasn't about to, she actually did right after that sentence.
Korra only shook her head, "What have I gotten myself into? She's right only a few more days." Korra laid down in the bed and passed out a few moments later...
