A/N: I really liked writing this one, I like to imagine Lin being just as stubborn and hard headed as Toph as a kid.
P.S. I don't own anything, Avatar, Korra, and all that other stuff belong to a lot of other people, sadly.
So without further ado . . .
School Daze
Lin turned the narrow hallway's corner and gasped in horror at the scene unfolding in front of her. A small classroom door hindered the view from the hall as a small boy writhed to escape the clutches of an older student.
He squirmed, trying to not to start a fight as a tight grip held him in place at the front of the classroom. Lin took one look at the attacker's grasp upon the boy and knew she had to save him, immediately.
Without thinking, she tore the flimsy door from its hinges and threw her childish hands into the air, a menacing angle pierced across her brow. Instantaneously a whole row of desks flew into the air, whipping past her face as they flew towards their target, straight for the bully's side.
"Oof!" he grunted as the solid metal square slammed into his body, knocking the wind out of him as he flew through the air, landing with a loud thud against the far wall..
Teeth clenched together, Lin slowly squeezed her hands into tiny fists, concentrating as the legs of the desks bent backwards over themselves, encasing the boy in a spidery grip. His eyes grew wide in fear and awe as she stared him down, daring him to move.
Her fingertips curled inwards, slowly tightening her grip; the metal easily responded to the movement, bending effortlessly as if turned to liquid until she was satisfied with her work. She knew he would not be able to escape the room without first receiving punishment for his actions.
Lin reached down to help the boy off the dusty, turning to see a small smile of relief pass over his calming face, happy to have her help.
"Thanks Lin" he smiled up at her, reaching up to her outstretched hand.
"Any time Tenzin" she grinned slightly, kicking her heel into the dirt and thrusting him upwards to his feet.
