Duke
"Aang, what do you mean?" She asked. But Aang didn't answer and her room faded. She was left in darkness until she heard a cry. There Korra was again in the middle of watching Duke get captured.
She saw Lin knocked out by the door and Oji Spence holding Duke.
"Come on," Oji commanded. "Leave the woman! Gather up the troops and let's get back to headquarters." The men did as they were told and left Oji alone with the baby.
"I'm going to kill you," he instructed with a hint of madness in his voice. Korra followed Oji out of Air Temple Island and into a small cave just outside Republic City.
"Hui come here!" Oji yelled. Korra was starting to realize Oji was mean, maybe even evil.
"Hui I said come here!" He said once more. A short skinny women entered.
"You wanted me, sir?" She said looking very terrified.
"Ah yes! Here take this mutt and make sure you don't let him out of your sight," he said while handing Duke to Hui.
"Yes sir, but may i ask why?" The women asked. Oji didn't reply at first. He walked around trying to find an answer.
"Well Hui, we will soon have an...unexpected guest."
"How do you know," the women quickly asked.
"Dont talk back to me!" He shouted holding up a hand as to beat her with it, but didn't. The girl looked petrified. He put his hand down and started to talk again. "Just take the baby and hide. I'll be back to kill it later."
"Kill it! But it's a baby!" Hui cried out.
"Do as your told," they heard footsteps coming towards them. "Hui go!" Oji instructed pointing to an escape door. She followed his orders and left. Holding Duke tight in her arms.
"Well, well, well look what we have here its the happy new parents! congratulations you guys!" Oji mocked to his unexpected guests, Tenzin and Lin.
"Where is our son Oji?" Tenzin asked Oji.
"Look at you. You look pathetic! But to answer your question lets just say he's close to death," He laughed as he mindlessly took out his sword. "Now which one of you should i kill first?" He said getting his blade ready.
"Give up Oji the police force will be here any minute to put you away. Now I'm going to ask you one more time" Lin said earthbending him to the ground and getting close to his face. "Where. Is. My. Son!"
"I don't know what you're talking about," Oji said innocently.
"Lin he's just trying to distract us. Come on let's go search the cave. You've trapped him well enough . The police force will be here soon to get him."
"Well Okay," they left to search the cave, leaving Oji all alone. Big mistake. Oji broke free and left out the same escape door Hui had recently escaped from. The police force came. They searched for clues, but couldn't find anything. They continued there search for the lost boy and his kidnapper.
"I wonder what your name is little one," Hui said cradling the baby in her arms while hiding under some rocks.
"His name is Duke," Oji said hovering behind her which gave her a fright.
"Sir, I don't wanna be rude or anything, but why do you want to kill him?" She asked wondering.
"Hui, he's the second to last airbender. Once he's gone it'll only be Tenzin left." He said with a glimmer in his eyes. "Anyways a change of plans are in order. You see that boat right there?" Oji said pointing at a large metal boat. She nodded in return. "You and that thing will get on it. Its heading to a village near the earth kingdom. If I'm not there in two days kill him with this," he handed her a knife."Do you understand my directions?"
"Yes I do," she said looking a bit teary eyed.
"If I don't make it there and I find out you didn't kill him i swear I'll-" he stopped as he heard voices behind him. "Just get on the boat and remember what I told you!" Hui snuggled the baby closely in her arms as she ran towards the boat not looking back. It only took a few hours to get to the village. As she was getting off the boat she overheard a conversation.
"Ey Song, did you here they caught that Oji Spence guy last night," said a man.
"Really? Did they find the baby?"
"No not yet. I bet the babies dead."
She couldn't believe her ears. Hui took out the Knife Oji gave her. She couldn't kill an innocent baby. Could she? Hui found an abandoned house in the village. She smelled something disgusting, then realized Duke's diaper hasn't been changed since last night. She didn't have diapers but found a towel on the floor. That would have to do. As she was changing his diaper she saw glowing grey eyes look up at her.
"I can't kill you," she said lifting him up back into her arms." But if I don't he'll know?" She looked at him once more. "I can't take you back to Republic City, he'll find out and get the both of us." Duke giggled as he chewed on the necklace his father gave him. "I'll keep you safe. I promise. Then one day everything could go back to normal." Hui said holding him closely.
The image faded and Korra was back in her room. It was still dark outside,but she didn't care.
"Oh my god! I have to tell Tenzin," she ran out of her room and headed towards Tenzin and Pema's room. She didn't even bother to knock. Korra just barged right in.
"Tenzin wake up I have news that you won't believe," she yelled waking up the sleepy couple. She told them the story. Duke's story.
"Korra thank you this is wonderful news! I'll call Lin immediately," he said picking up the phone. Korra was so happy she solved a crime and Tenzin would soon have his son back! The next morning Tenzin, Lin, and Korra headed to that village on oogi. Everyone was silent during their journey. They were all thinking about what he would be like and act like. They arrived just before dusk. Korra found the place Hui and Duke were hiding. It looked much nicer than the vision, then again that was thirteen years ago so of course it would look nicer.
"Are you guys ready," Korra asked. They both nodded their heads. Korra knocked on the door. Hui answered it. She had a few wrinkles and a couple of grey hairs, but other than that she looked the same. She answered the door with a gasp. She recognized them at once.
"Your too late. He's gone."
