AN: hello again and thanks for reading :)
I guess you've all guessed by now that two of my drabbles will receive their own story but I also wanna say that I won't update these stories as frequently as you're all used to. I want to focus on Homeless and Slavery first and when I have some spare time, I will work on either Change, or Stress Relief.
Some of you, who read the drabbles and are now reading this, might find changes in the story. I added something here, changed something there... I made some changes in the timeline in chapter 1 so nothing seems rushed. (not anymore, I hope, lol ) the parts that have some adjustments in the first chapter are recognized with a little - in front of them :)
Anyway, enjoy :) and dont forget to review!
I woke up next morning, alone. The Avatar was gone but it hadn't been for long. The side where she slept was still warm and so was I. my blankets felt unfamiliar. I blinked a few times and let my hands roam over the fabric. It weren't just ordinary sheets. It was a pelt. I tried to sit up slightly but the horrible throb in my head made me stop any attempts to sit up. The room was spinning again and I quickly laid down to make it stop. I guess I wasn't fast enough and I became extremely nauseous.
I was in the middle of puking my guts out when the door opened again. I hung over the edge of the bed to prevent myself to throwing up on the bed and the pelt. With all my might, I tried to stop but another wave of vomit made it's way from my stomach, through my throat and out of my mouth. It was painful and I sobbed in between the waves. The Avatar had come back and with her some female members of the Red Lotus.
I couldn't quite hear what was said but people moved around quickly. My head was hurting to much to care and I was about to let myself collapse back onto the floor when warm arms found their way once again around my body. The Avatar pulled me out of bed and carried me out the room. I shivered when a breeze touched the bare skin of my legs and arms.
"It's not far…" she whispered soothingly in my ear.
I nodded slowly, my head rested against the Avatar's chest. Eyes closed. I had no idea how long it took but it couldn't have been longer then a few minutes until we arrived. Doors closed behind us and when I opened one of my eyes, all I saw was a steam filled room.
"where…" I started but the Avatar slowly put me down at the edge of a filled bath.
"The bath house…" she started and called one of her servants. "wash her clothes and if anyone hears of what happened… I will make you wish you were never born…" she added the last part with a growl.
I didn't struggle when the Avatar slowly removed my clothes and handed them to the servant. He quickly dashed off once he had all he needed and once he was gone, I was alone with the Avatar once again. I took a shuddering breath and wrapped my arms around myself. Even though the room was filled with steam and the bath was filled with warm water. I felt cold. "Why… am I here…?" I asked weakly, having a hard time to focus on anything and everything seemed a bit blurry.
"The force that you used to throw up… caused you to wet yourself…" she said and I felt like I could die right there and then. I covered my face with both hands and vaguely heard her step into the water. "I figured you could use a bath…"
I removed my hands slowly and looked at her, tears in my eyes from embarrassment. I expected her to laugh at me, to make fun of me but nothing of that happened. Instead she stood before me in the bath. Water up till her hips and she moved closer until she stood between my spread legs.
I realized then how naked I was and when she put her hands on the small of my back to pull me into the bath as well. I put my hands on her arms and revealed my breasts. She didn't seem to care one bit that I was naked but then again, she had probably already seen dozens of naked women. Still, my heart raced and I felt nervous. "Avatar… wait I…"
"Korra."
I looked at her in confusion. "W-what…?"
"Call me Korra…" she said with a warm smile and before I knew it, she pulled me into the water. I was glad that she had a firm hold onto me, otherwise, I'm sure I would've just collapsed into the water and drowned. In a reflex, I wrapped my arms around her neck. My face showed a deep crimson and we just stood there. Heart pounding against my rib cage in an attempt to escape, I reckon. She walked backwards and eventually turned.
"Please sit. Do you think you can wash yourself or do you need help?"
I felt an edge under the water and my guess was that she wanted me to sit down on it. I nodded slowly at her question. "y-yeah… I think so…" I swallowed hard, slowly sat down and for some reason, I felt even more naked without her arms around me. She had pulled away and reached me a washing cloth and a bar of soap. She was about to leave and before I had time to think, my mouth already uttered out the words. "c-could you wash my hair?"
She looked at me almost shocked but quickly recovered and smiled at me. I noticed then how beautiful her smile was and made a note in the back of my head to try and make her smile more often.
"Of course."
We spend an hour in the bath, me cleaning myself and Korra washed my hair. She promised to work on my head later on and on my lungs, since I had another coughing fit. It hit me right after she was finished washing my hair. We stood near the edge of the bath and she had one arm around my waist and the hand of her other arm gently massaged my back muscles to try and calm my lungs.
I was gasping for air and tried to calm myself when the soothing feeling of last night surprised me. My arms found a way around her waist and I leaned against her for comfort and because I had trouble enough standing straight as it was. My face was buried in the crook of her neck and I took in her scent. She smelled like the ocean and roasted meat.
I heard her ask me if I was okay and once again, my mouth was faster than my brain. Which caused me to blurt out things I was hardly aware of. "Yes… sorry… you're just… really comfortable to lean against…"
She just chuckled softly and the soothing feeling stopped. Far sooner then I liked but I was able to take deeper breathes without going in an immediate coughing fit. She pulled me out of the water and dried off my body with a big, white towel. When she was done, she grabbed another one and wrapped it around me. I yelped softly when she picked me up like this. I felt like a big burrito but trusted my host nonetheless. We left the bathhouse and walked into a different direction than that we came.
I didn't care anymore and my eyelids slowly fell shut. When I finally woke up again. I was warm and comfortable. I opened one of my eyes slowly but panicked when I noticed I wasn't in my own room. I moved my hands over my body and felt the familiar fabric of my sleeping clothes. Slowly, I turned to lay on the right side of my body and sighed deeply. I was comfortable, warm and right at that moment, I heard my stomach growl. Apparently, I was hungry as well.
I decided to try and sleep some more. My throbbing headache had become less, but it was still present and I didn't want to risk throwing up, again. I let the warmth take me and slowly, I drifted back to sleep again. This time, I did have a dream. One I never thought I would have.
I was laying in my own bed, in my own house. It was during a summer night and summers were hot in Republic City, so I slept naked, my arms above my head. Someone entered my room and without hesitation, crawled on my bed. Tan hands moved from my ankles up. Kneading my muscles all the way up. I moaned softly from the touch and when I opened my eyes to see who it was, I was in complete shock. Korra was hovering over me. I swallowed hard, unable to move or say anything.
Her Sapphires looked at me in a way no one had ever looked at me before. She lowered herself and I was helpless. My state of shock only increased when our lips met in a kiss. It was exhilarating and it send shocks of pleasure throughout my body. I took a sharp breath though my nose as the kiss continued. I didn't resist. Didn't want to, so I surrendered to it.
One of her hands roamed over my naked form. Slowly it discovered, explored and I gasped when she cupped one of my breasts. I pushed my head back against my pillow and moaned sweetly into the air. Her lips caught mine again and we kissed like before. I parted my lips slightly and she licked my bottom lip before she slid her tongue in my mouth. I tremble underneath her and whimpered softly as our tongues touch and dance around each other. I cupped her face with both my hands and tried to pull her in even deeper.
I felt her hand travel from my breast over my abdomen and it stopped to cup my sex. My mind went white with want and I bucked my hips unintentionally. I arched my back violently when a finger slid between my folds and I could tell that I was already soaking wet by how easy that single finger slid through my moist lips. Slowly, she started to circle my clit. I pulled back from our deep kiss to moan out loud and pushed back against the pillows again like before.
She buried her free hand in my hair and laid down on top of me. We were both panting and my breaths come and go rapidly. My moans became higher and shorter the longer she continued to finger me and her lips eventually found the skin of my neck. She nibbled, sucked, kissed and licked every inch of skin she found. I started to roll my hips to meet the rhythm of her delicious finger and the tension in my lower belly started to build up more and more until I cried out her name.
My climax hit me hard and without mercy but I continued to grind and roll my hips nonetheless. I trembled in the aftershocks of my release. My nails dug into her skin and left red marks all over her arms and shoulders. Her finger circled my bud a little longer and her motions became slower in an attempt to let me ride my orgasm for as long as possible. Our eyes locked again and I couldn't stop looking at her or turn my gaze away. The way she looked at me, it rendered me breathless. She looked at me with such adoration and love, I couldn't believe it.
"Asami…"
I flinched, but answered her anyway. "Y-yes…?"
"Asami… wake up…"
Everything around me disappeared and I'm surrounded by darkness. I heard the voice again. It urged me to wake up. I was vaguely aware of a warm hand on my arm and I flinched. I opened my eyes and blinked confused. Panting and with a pleasant throb between my legs. I swallowed hard and pulled the pelt up to cover myself some more. It had all been a dream. All of it and for some reason, I felt more disappointed then ever.
Korra sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me with a worried expression. "Are you alright? I thought you had a nightmare."
I smiled and rubbed my eyes with the palm of my hands. "Y-yeah… I'm alright…" I managed to utter, still trembling from my dream. What's wrong with me...? I thought and she shoved a tray of food my way. She smiled at me and together, we ate the food she had brought with her. She asked me how I felt and if I needed anything that would make my stay more comfortable. I eyed her up and down and I don't know why, but she was being genuinely interested so I admitted that I felt rather lonely around here. That I wasn't used of cold weather and that I was quite bored with the books I had with me.
She listened carefully and seemed to absorb all the information I gave her. She looked so different than when I had seen her at my home. She had this gentle and softer side of her that I, obviously, felt attracted to. It scared me a bit.
In the week that I recovered from my illness, she spend more and more time with me. She brought me food and we ate together. She worked on me with her healing water and at night, she slept next me. Her arms around my frame and my face in the crook of her neck. Flashes of the dream I had rose to the surface of my memory, each time her hands worked on me. I tried my best to forget and push the memories back but my pulsating core made the job just that little bit harder.
After a week, I was finally better and moved back to my own room. She continued to find excuses to spend time with me and had even brought me different clothes to wear that were better resistant to the cold climate. I wore a blue parka along with my regular clothes and it kept me perfectly warm. I looked forward to the moments where we would spend time together and today, some weeks after I moved back to my own room, was one of the days. She had asked me to help with something. Her engineers couldn't seem to fix a problem with one of the radio's that connected this place with others in the world. So I came along with her to the communication room.
There were two Red Lotus guards outside the room. They eyed me up and down and looked at the Avatar. "She's with me." She said simply and the guards gave her a polite bow, opened the door and let us in. I looked around, my mouth half open. There were several people at each wall of the room. Talking to whomever was on the other side. Korra guided me to the wall opposite of the door and I sat down in front of the radio that was out of service.
Korra had brought my toolbox with her and I returned the smile she gave me with one of my own. It didn't take long before I knew what was wrong with the machine and I fixed the problem within an hour. I put all the tools back and she pecked my cheek as a thank you. I felt my cheeks burn with a fierce blush and quickly averted my eyes. One of the women who was stationed behind the radio's called out for the Avatar and she excused herself.
She and the woman were in a deep discussion, I couldn't hear what it was about, judging from the look on her face, it wasn't a pleasant report. She walked back to me, a frown on her forehead.
"I'll be gone for today, some gangs in Republic City are causing trouble. Me and some members will be leaving within now and an hour. If all goes well, we'll be back by nightfall." She smiled at me and I felt my heart flutter in my chest. "If you'd like, you should go to our library. They got the fireplaces to work again so it's nicely warm in there."
I just nodded and smiled. "I think I will…" I turned around to leave but instead, I turned back towards her and took her hand with my own. She was surprised by the gesture but continued to smile. "Be careful, okay?" I said and she nodded.
I finally left and after I dropped my toolbox back in my room, I continued to the Library. Pencil and note block in hand. I had been surprised as to how many books about engineering and mechanics there were stocked in the library. I also loved to learn and read about the history of the Avatar's before Korra.
The hours ticked by and I lost track of time. All other people were already gone when I noticed footsteps. I smiled to myself and when I looked up from my books, my smile fell as quickly as it came. Before me stood five young women. All dressed in their regular Red Lotus outfits. I recognized some of them and my guess was that they were all Korra's groupies.
I got up from my sitting position and just had enough time to block an attack. I gasped at the intensity of it and tried to ignore the pain that the impact had caused. I swallowed hard and dodged the second attack. It knocked the lamp off of the desk I had been sitting next to. I moved to the right and a fist nearly hit me against the side of my face. Instead, I grabbed the arm that belonged to the fist and used the girls momentum to swing her around and throw her against one of the bookshelves.
I continued to block or dodge attacks with both my arms. Every so often I had an opening and took it. My fists never missed target, nor did my feet when I kicked against my attackers. Sweat formed on my forehead and some strains of hair stuck to my forehead. I was panting but three out of five were already down and my attackers showed more signs of exhaustion than me.
One of the two tried an direct attack and in one smooth motion, I swiped her off her feet and she made a dive against the desk behind me. I heard something crack but didn't care. There was one left and I didn't plan on giving up now. I got ready and expected her to come at me, just like the one before her had done. Instead, I saw her, just standing there. A wicked grin on her face. My pounding heart was in a grip of panic. I noticed footsteps behind me and I knew I was to late. There had been a sixth…
Before I could turn around, I felt a sharp pain that came from my back and I cried out in pure agony. Whatever they used, it was pulled out of me and I slowly turned around to face my attacker. My eyes wide in horror when the sharp item was forced inside me, again. The left side of my abdomen, just above my hip. I looked down and I saw the hilt of a dagger. It was pulled out again and I fell to the floor. My hands clutching the deep wound just above my hip. Trying to keep the blood from oozing out. My breath was ragged, short. My entire body and every muscle seemed to be on fire. I collapsed and fell to the side.
The woman that had stabbed me hovered over me, the bloodied weapon still in hand. "There's nothing special about you… filthy non bender!" she spat and growled at me. I whimpered pathetically and gasped for air. Tears formed in my eyes and streamed over my pale cheeks.
"The Avatar is ours!" another one said and one by one, they got back on their feet and left. The one who stabbed me was the last to leave and all I could do was lay there. I could taste blood in my mouth and my heart raced. I needed to get help. "Help… please…" my voice was to soft for anyone to hear and my eyelids became heavy from exhaustion.
No… no I can't let them win! I can't give up…! I thought and tried desperately to crawl my way to the exit. I didn't came far. The pain from my back and abdomen became to much to bear and I stopped moving all together. I could feel the darkness take hold on my mind and it was so tempting to give in.
My breaths became shallower, my vision became blurry and the outer lines became black. Slowly, it started to overwhelm my vision all together. "Korra…" I said her name and I liked how it rolled off my tongue so easily. "I…" I closed my eyes, unable to say the words I wanted to say. The taste of blood invaded my mouth and gave into the tempting darkens when I closed my eyes.
