Author's Note:
1. Once again, I'm very sorry for the short chapters but I PROMISE that Chapter 6 will be MUCH LONGER.
2. (If I input the final touches in time) Chapter 6 will be coming soon. Very soon. I may even put it up later tonight, I don't know.
3. I'm going to keep this site and the story on my Tumblr blog (whoviansaremagic) on the same chapters now because, even though I've been good about it, I forget to upload here, like this chapter, which has been on my Tumblr for months but I completely forgot about it for here.
4. Lastly, I plan to focus more on writing but my real life has been getting in the way with that recently (not like that's a real excuse, I'm mainly just lazy and procrastinate A LOT).
Anyway, please enjoy this short sweet new chapter, "The Suspense"
"The Suspense"
Korra's POV
"I'm all fired up and ready to go!" Korra exclaimed excitedly, sliding at a stop by Oogi and practically chucking the last of her belongings onto the flying bison's back. While Senna was still inside, Korra snuck to the basement where Naga was. Naga, being as cheery as ever, literally jumped up and down as Korra grabbed a catfish from the fishing net that hung on the wall. Korra tossed it up, causing Naga to leap and catch it in mid-air. However, she landed on Korra and effectively licked her face raw.
"Okay, you're welcome, you big dummy. Remember, it'll be your turn to travel tomorrow."
At this, Naga's normally ecstatic expression fell, and she slumped over, now laying to the left of Korra.
"It's only a day, you'll be fine, buddy. Just remember to badger mom so she won't forget, K?" Korra said, trying to sound uplifting while a hint of resentment showed in her voice.
"Korra? Honey, we need to get going before it gets dark. Are you coming?"
"Bye, Naga." Korra whispered as she expertly scaled the ladder that lead outside and hopped atop Oogi, all before Senna had reached the door.
"Come on, mom, I want to get back to Republic City!" Korra replied, a bright smile shining on her face.
"Oh, you can't fool me, Korra, I know you'll miss this trainwreck of a village while you're gone."
"Alright, alright, Mom, you caught me, but I still do want to go! Everything's so alive there." Korra exclaimed, grabbing Oogi's reins and helping her mother to climb atop the bison.
"Yip-yip, Oogi."
And off to Republic City they flew.
Asami's POV
She loved the look of the lively, vibrant market on a Saturday morning. All of the different people, benders, non-benders, Fire Nation with red clothes, Earth Kingdom with green clothes, Air Temples with red and yellow robes, and Southern Water Tribe with light blue clothes and wolftails. Yes, this was the life. Ridding her motorcycle through the streets was quite – hold on… Southern Water Tribe?
Asami's emerald-green eyes widened when a certain wolftailed Avatar came to mind and, as soon as she possibly could, she pulled over, threw her helmet off and looked down the street. Sure enough, running (childishly) towards a cabbage stand, was the same tan-skinned girl that had flooded Asami's dreams during the night, and her thoughts during the day. Struggling behind said girl, however, was a woman with an almost familial similarity to her, but she seemed a bit older.
That's probably her mother.
And with that, Asami zoomed to the nearest place to park her bike (which, luckily enough for her, was only about a block away) and started her jog towards the cabbage stand.
I almost forgot, if anyone can guess what the first line that Korra says is a reference to, I'll upload Chapter 6 in the morning. OK, that's it, bye!
