*ALTERNATE ENDING*

...

Her father's mecha tank turned in her direction, it's electric whip firing up again. The light flashed in Asami's frightened eyes. It shot out and there was a loud, painful yelp.

"NO!" Asami cried, trying to run forward. The Equalist holding her tightened his grip on her.

Korra hit the wall and fell to the ground, whimpering in pain. She changed back into her human form. She didn't move. Asami gasped, tears already filling her eyes. Korra...no...no, no, no!

Her father turned his mecha tank around, facing Asami. It rolled towards her, coming to a stop a few feet away. Her father flipped opened the hatch, exposing himself. He stood up and waved his hand, dismissing the man holding Asami. His hands released her and Asami fell to her knees, sobbing. Hiroshi stepped down from the robot and stood before his daughter.

"How could you..." Asami whispered. "Why?!"

"Asami, you don't understand." her father said. "It was benders that killed your mother! And whatever Korra is...she's not normal! Half human, half wolf, all Avatar...she's an abomination!"

"You're wrong!" Asami cried, looking up at him. Tears were still streaming down her face, but her eyes were fierce and hateful. She glared at her father. "Korra is not an abomination! I love her!" She slowly got to her feet. "You're the one who doesn't understand! Maybe if you weren't such a coward back then, Mom would still be alive!"

Hiroshi's eyes widened, then closed. He took a deep breath. "It's not because I was a coward that I couldn't save Yasuko. It was nothing like that." He looked back up at Asami. He held out his hand, opening it. A glove was in it. "I can show you what it's like to be powerful. I can show you what it means to have everything you've ever wanted, and getting revenge on those who tried to take it from you."

Asami stared down at his hand. How could he dare to do this to her? After he so badly hurt Korra? Her friends? She looked around, watching as Kuvira, Mako, and Bolin were lifted up off the ground and put in handcuffs. Her eyes fell on Korra, who still hadn't moved. Finally, she looked at her father. He had a pleading look in his gaze. Her hand clenched into a fist and released. No... Slowly, she reached out for the glove, her hand shaking. What she hadn't noticed is that Korra was getting up. Korra picked her head up, catching Asami picking up the glove from her father's hands. Anger flooded her and he forced herself to her feet.

"Asami!" she yelled, her voice failing her towards the end. She bent over in pain.

Asami bit her lip, closing her eyes. Her fingers closed around the glove and she lifted it out of her father's palm. She slipped onto her hand. It felt all too nice, it fit too well. She looked up at Hiroshi, who was smiling. She smiled back, sadly, and sighed.

"I love you, dad."

There was a flash of white and Asami's hand shot out. Hiroshi had no time to react and he was thrown back. The Equalists holding her friends dropped them and immediately ran at her. She tensed herself, taking a deep breath. Korra watched in amazement as Asami took them on one by one, each of them being enveloped in electricity and falling to the ground. A chi-blocker dodged her strikes and attempted to punch her in the shoulder when a metal plate from a nearby machine separated them. Asami looked past it and saw Kuvira grinning, her arms out. She had metalbent the cuffs off her wrists and had done the same to Mako and Bolin. Bolin was with Korra, keeping her steady on her feet while Mako swept his arms from the ground up, bringing a wall of fire in his wake.

"We need to get out of here!" he yelled.

"I think we can go through there!" Bolin said, pointing at a wide opening at the far side of the room.

"Let's go!" Kuvira said.

Asami saw them as they headed for the exit, but didn't move. Her eyes fell to her father, who was still unconscious on the ground. Tears built up in her eyes again.

"Asami, what are you waiting for?!" Kuvira yelled to her as she ran back.

"Kuvira, I-" Asami began, but was cut off by the sound of metal groaning. There was a metal wall starting to block off the exit.

Kuvira reached her and grabbed her wrist. "We need to get out of here now! Come on!"

Asami didn't show any restraint as Kuvira pulled her behind her towards the exit. The metal wall was almost closed. She could see Mako, Bolin and Korra watching from the rest of the opening. Korra's eyes were settled on her. Kuvira picked up speed and ducked last second under the wall, giving Asami a hard pull through. The wall slammed behind them and they breathed heavily, getting to their feet.

Come on." Mako said, heading up the incline.

"Are you okay, Asami?" Korra asked, letting Bolin help her towards the disheveled girl as they followed Mako.

"Yeah, I'm...I'm fine..." Asami said, meeting her eyes. Even as she spoke the words, she felt her eyes water again.

Korra's expression saddened. "I'm sorry, Asami..."

"It doesn't matter." Asami brushed the subject off. "We need to get you out of here and taken care of."

The rest of the walk settled in silence until they incline brought them to a closed off metal ceiling.

"It's a dead end." Bolin groaned.

Kuvira put her hand to the ceiling. "No, it's not. It opens right here." She steadied her feet and her hands shot out. She made a pulling back motion and the ceiling slid back into some unknown opening. They squinted against the sudden light, but they all breathed a sigh of relief as they finished walking through. The information the brothers had gotten wasn't a lie. They were standing the center of Hiroshi Sato's workshop. Asami bit her lip, but said nothing.

"Let's go so we can call the police." Mako said.

Kuvira made it to the door first and yanked it open. She looked back at the others, then back outside. There were red and blue lights flashing outside. They walked outside and everyone's attention was suddenly on them.

"What the flameo are you children doing here?" Lin Beifong said, approaching them.

"Chief?" Korra said, raising an eyebrow. "How did you get here?"

"I got a call saying there was a bunch of shaking under the ground and low crashes." Lin said, crossing her arms. "You all look like you've been run over."

"The reports weren't wrong, Chief." Bolin spoke up.

"There's a whole factory in there, underground." Mako said.

"How do you know?" Lin asked.

"We were down there." Korra said. "There are more Equalists down there and..." Korra trailed off and looked at Asami, who was staring at the ground.

Lin looked back at her officers. "Alright, you all know what to do!" A large group of them headed towards the workshop and Lin followed them. A she walked away, she said, "You kids better get to your homes and get cleaned up."

"Let's get Korra home first." Bolin said, looking at the water tribe native.

"Yeah." Kuvira and Mako agreed.

As her friends walked away, Asami took an extra second to look down at the glove covering her hand. She opened and closed her hand, turned on the electricity and it pulsed. She clenched her teeth and closed her eyes. She turned the glove off and slipped it off her hand.

It dropped to the ground as she walked away.

...

I think this ending might of been just a little better, but I'm still glad I chose the first one. I started writing this in third person before just to get my plans laid out, but since it wasn't official I just went ahead and finished it that way. Hope you enjoyed!
