Day 5: Death
Only the two of them were left. The Avatar was in her most destructive state. No one was able to lay even a finger on her. She went berserk all over the cave's walls. The chains that bound her were snapped from attachment. All of the elements encircled around her, protecting her as she destroyed the cave.
The airbender grabbed his beloved and ran out of the cave as fast as they can. He carried her with him and used his airbending to boost their speed, jumping down as they made their escape. He let her down as soon as they were back on leveled ground and started running again.
He looked back and saw Korra making a hole on that mountain and flying fast towards them.
P'Li stopped running and shot a combustion beam directly at Korra, grunting as soon as the Avatar remained unscathed. The ground was shaking and she couldn't focus.
"P'LI, JUST RUN!" Zaheer grabbed her arm and dragged her as he ran.
"NO! WE'VE COME THIS FAR." The combustionbender stopped and faced Korra.
Zaheer didn't want to leave without her. He doesn't want to do all this alone, he couldn't. Not without her. Even though they both knew this was going to happen at the verge of success or the point of failure, they still have to continue the mission no matter what.
He was about to grab her arm again and run away until a bright light shone at the direction where he was about to step forward to. A figure was floating in front of him. They were welcoming him, urging him to step into the void. His foot wouldn't stop moving. His body was disobeying him. He held on to P'Li, pulling him with her.
"Zaheer, what are you-"
"Let go of your earthly tether."
"Impossible! How-"
"Enter the void."
Zaheer stepped towards the figure and he felt like he was gripping nothing.
"ZAHEER!" P'Li screamed as her body burned and slowly turned into ashes, swept away by the wind.
"NO!" He shouted at the sight of his lover disappearing as he floated away. The airbender looked back at the figure and noticed that he was gone. He heard a battle cry and looked in front of him, the Avatar with her eyes glowing and the elements surrounding her, plunging towards him to take him down.

He felt his body drop down from his floating state. Different dreams, the same meaning, Every night, this was happening. Zaheer panted, sweat dripping down from his temples. He recalled that very day. The day when P'Li died, her whole body exploding after the matriarch of the Metal Clan covered her face with the metal vest causing the explosion to get contained. His face grew weary, and not even the Avatar gave him the chance to kneel and mourn at the death of his beloved. That time, he felt nothing anymore. But now, he was shedding tears whenever he remembered P'Li and their times together until her very last.
