SECOND LAST CHAPTER OF THIS STORY, HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY THE DOUBLE POST. BOTH OF THESE HAVE BEEN ON MY PC AND THE SIGHT FOR THE LAST 21 DAYS. SORRY... JUST GOT DISTRACTED...
Their attacks had failed, Mako was exhausted and hurt, Opal was knocked out and there was almost nothing they could do anymore. Korra couldn't even damage the suite in the avatar state, but he knew he could do something, he could have done it long ago, but he was scared. Looking at his brother, he gave him that same smile he gave him the last time he did something stupid, but this time he knew he could end it.
'Help me Balan, we are going to end this now. It's gone too far.' Bolin said solemnly.
'Of course, she's done too much damage and harm. Bolin, it's been great being with you, as your protector, but after this I won't be there anymore. I'm going to give up my soul and my power, I don't want to take over your life.'
'N-no… you can't give up everything for this…'
'I've made the choice Bolin, you've always been my brother. I want to do this last thing for you, besides my life was never my own.'
'o-okay…'
'Let's merge.' Balan said finally letting his essence flow into his spiritual brother.
Bolin started to walk forward as he was enveloped in the signature of Balan, the blue flame. He could feel the fire coursing thru his veins and seep into every cell of his body, he felt the pulse of the earth and the movement of the spiritual energy within the planet. His mind became clearer, no longer needing to have his subconscious focus on things like breathing and keeping his heart beating anymore. Bolin took an unnecessary breath closing his eyes and then exhaled slowly opening his eyes as he did so.
The flames left a path in his wake, burning with the intensity of the sun, but as cold as the reaches of the deepest part of space. Clenching his fists, he lifted his left foot and stomped the ground as he got into his fighting form, causing the entire city to quake with the movement. Looking at where Kuvira should be in the suite he softly said "Sorry" and thrust his hand forward. Molten metal from the rubble shot forward like twin daggers, but a metal hand quickly moved to intercept the projectiles.
Unknown to Kuvira, it had just been a rouge which Bolin used to run along the side of the building, using his element to help him. As soon as he reached the arm that had swatted the two darts he launched himself toward it, his entire body becoming coated in blue fire that burned more intense with each second until a spark erupted turning the entire flame aura into a lightning aura.
Dust particles in the air gathered faster than normal forming two daggers in his hands, small traces of metal joining to form a tip denser than anything known to man, but lighter than steel. As he descended towards the arm the lighting moved along his arms towards the daggers, coating them in lethal amounts of the energy just as he thrust it into the Mecha-suite. The current ran thru the machine starting to overload the power core by redirecting the power flow back into it. Kuvira's team quickly fired off the extra energy that had built up in the core, saving themselves from an explosive death.
Bolin quickly jumped from the spot, running along the machine's arm, using his abilities to its maximum as he melted the armour with superheated dust particles, cutting a large gash along the arm of the machine. On the shoulder of it he was thrown back to the ground, but like some mystical force a sand storm formed on the ground catching him in a soft pillow of fine sands.
In the back of his mind, Bolin knew he had not even scratched the surface of his power, but he didn't want to cause more destruction than there already was. Balan had given him the power he required, but he didn't want to use it, but he had no choice. Slowly he stood up, his face hidden behind his hair, not facing his friends or his enemies.
"I didn't want to do this… Yet you forced my hand and his, now we are one and the same being…" Bolin's voice echoed across the city. "You drove me to accept the power of a being even Raava and Vatuu feared for his power."
The earth cracked and the winds rose, moving clouds into the path of the sun blocking out its light creating shade. Lightning crackled and burst from the clouds towards the ground, causing lava to spew out like fountains of water, gushing out the molten rock into the street. Heat-waves were visible to the naked eye as the lava heated up the area, however, Bolin remained unaffected by the rise in temperature.
"Funny thing is, the being merged with me, giving me complete control over his power." His voice resonated, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Korra couldn't believe what she saw, she had known that the spirit world had powerful beings, but this kind of power was insane. She knew of nothing that could use as much power or had as much influence in the world as the Avatar spirit. She looked at the shocked expression of Mako and Opal, no doubt they didn't know about his power or this other being. She could tell by just feeling the energy that flowed thru the ground that Bolin was using the spiritual network to move around, which shouldn't be possible for anybody.
She saw the blue fire freeze the water, nothing like the fire from Azula the previous avatar had experienced. It was so cold, it actually burned the very ground it moved on. The intense heat of the lava did nothing to hinder the progress of the flames, the two opposing temperatures wreaking havoc on the weather. She could tell that Bolin wanted to instil fear into the hearts of Kuvira and her soldiers, yet it didn't seem to work in his favour. The fear was causing the soldiers to become more reckless and violent.
"Now before I really use the power that has been bestowed on me, thanks to the sacrifice of his soul. I want to ask you if it is really worth it to harm and hurt innocent people, just for the sake of what you believe is right?" Bolin asked as two large spires of earth jutted out of two buildings, and he appeared out of thin air standing on the point where the two met.
"I am tacking back what is rightfully Earth Kingdom property! I'm building the nation back up to be the most powerful one that exists. They had no right to steal from the Earth Kingdom, what makes the Avatar so special?" She shouted back at him.
"So be it then." He said sadly as he closed his eyes.
Opening his eyes again, his irises glowed a bright gold. Faster than they thought possible he dove down to the ground, striking it with his fist forming a crater in the ground, the seismic waves headed towards the robot Kuvira was in leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. Lin could however feel the second purpose of the attack, as it moved thru the entire city giving her a perfect view of the entire battle.
She could see lines forming with the seismic waves towards each and every of the enemies from Bolin, like he was targeting all of them. Lin could hardly believe her eyes when the kid swung his arms like a fire bender and blue fire surrounded him shaping a dragon and launching it into the air. Seconds after he fired the large fire dragon into the sky, hundreds of smaller dragons appeared out of the blue fire that had spread along the ground earlier. It was at that moment that Lin finally realised that he was the cause of the fire, having only seen him use two daggers on the robot and then cut it like butter.
The dragons made out of pure fire flew into the sky, attacking the people highlighted with the seismic sense. Mako could feel the fire burning cold, his fire affinity giving him the ability to track these dragons. It felt amazing, like pure and untamed power just flying around them. It was like a scene straight out of a fairy-tale with these dragons rising out of the fire and flying into the darkening sky like fireflies. One thing he did notice however was the golden eyes they had, just like his brothers.
Mako felt like every bit of stress the world gave him suddenly lifted, as if he was free of everything that tied him down to the earth. He looked towards his hands and saw a golden glow surrounding him and pink light was gathering ahead of him, but he felt no fear towards it. Looking around he saw that everybody was surrounded in the same golden glow, their wounds were healing and their energy being restored at the same time. Suddenly Bolin yelled to the heavens, causing Mako to whip his head towards his brother, but he only saw a greenish-golden pillar of light ploughing straight into the sky.
It looked like a spirit portal, but the energy coming from Bolin was almost tangible to him as well. As if sitting on the back of a bison and looking at the same spot as you flew further and further away, he barely felt him and the rest of the gang traveling away. Korra look on in disbelieve from the island they were standing on now.
"How is this possible?" asked Lin
"As I said, I was gifted this power from a being feared by all." Bolin's voice trembled thru the air. "His name was Balan, the Prince of Hell. He came from the same place all the evil of both worlds go, however he never truly belonged there. He gave everything up to give me this power, and as of now this is my legacy to pass on thru my family."
Everybody heard his voice, like the air itself had spoken to them. It was unreal and completely and utterly undeniable that Bolin was this powerful. Korra watched from afar using her connections to the spirit network to see what was happening. Bolin had grown two wings, pure white on the top and slowly fading to a black darker than night at the bottom tips. His golden eyes seemed more powerful than ever as he rushed towards the giant robotic suite, the earth underneath him evaporating like water.
Kuvira looked on in horror, and heard a final phrase before her life was lost along with her entire army's. "Evanesce Despot" and with those words said, the very thing that represented the rule of the dictator known as Kuvira started to evaporate like mist, becoming nothing more than a distant memory.
Everything was over, but a certain bit of knowledge was implanted in his brain, something that will change the world forever. He didn't know if he should reveal it, but if he did it would change what everybody thinks of the world. It might even help a certain somebody with that person's responsibilities. A part of him was still mad at her, but he decided it was time he settled old quarrels and moved on like an adult.
The world dissolved around him as he moved at speeds impossible to achieve to the normal human, appearing next to Opal. When she saw her fiancé next to her, she jumped at him and kissed him deeply. She was scared for him, terrified that he wouldn't come back to her. He smiled brightly at her and hugged her again, but pulled back with a frown looking at her stomach, feeling a new spiritual presence within her. He could hardly believe it that after a week the spiritual energy their child had would be this strong.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked concerned.
"You… Pregnant." He said with a small smile.
She didn't know what to say, she knew she had been sick this morning for some odd reason, but this couldn't be it… could it? "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I can feel it growing inside of you."
She smiled at him. "I wonder if it'll be little Bolin or Opal." Syuin commented suddenly.
"We are going to have the cutest kids ever Bolin." Opal said.
