A/N: Here's number two of today! Enjoy! Please excuse any typos or any kinds of errors.
"Korra wake up."
"Mom?"
"Korra, you need to get up."
"Mom, where am I?"
"GET UP!"
Korra jumps up out of her sleep looking around frantically. See can't see but the first thing she notices is that she is kneeling with her arms chained. She can't open her eyes, but she can smell Asami, two male alphas and two female Alpha.
"Take the bag off." A second later the bag was snatched off of her head, and in the same moment a cold bucket of water was dumped on her head.
"Holy fuck that's cold." Korra mumbles shaking the water out of her eyes. She looks up at the source of scents coming from the alphas. The strongest one coming from a bald, short man in the center. Korra focuses on him as he walks toward her.
"Do you know who I am?" Korra narrows her eyes but nods. "Good! To make this more comfortable for you, we will speak in English. You are in the Red Lotus compound. We are the ones leading the revolution for worldwide enlightenment. I am Zaheer."
"Uhh, ok?" Zaheer frowns at Korra's response. He nods in the direction of the female Beta guard that was harassing Asami. She steps forward punching Korra hard in the stomach, Asami gasps, but Korra doesn't make a sound or a grimace, but she sure as fuck felt that. She breathes through the pain before speaking.
"Well then, no need to get violent. Why are you holding us captive?"
"Ah, straight to the point. Well we have done quite a bit of research on you and we know that you are one of the leading micro and immunologist in the world, why you would throw that away by joining the military still baffles me." Korra's eyes widen a bit, getting ready to deny his claims, Zaheer raises his hand. "Before you come up with a lie, we have eyes in your country, we have put a lot of time into figuring out who you were and how to get you here, by luck you were already on your way to us. Here's a proposition for you, we want you, along with our current team to help us with a little project."
"What does that even…wait," These fucking people can't be serious. "Are you gonna ask me to help you make a bioweapon?"
"You are smart," Zaheer laughs, "yes, we do and thus throwing the world into a new order. One of chaos, destruction and peace. The worst disease to ever exist, and you are going to create it."
"Ok, two things you are missing here. Number one: What makes you think I can just, create, a new virus? Should I pull it out of my ass? And Two: I'm not doing it."
"But here's the thing. You are." He looks to his guards. "Persuade her."
"NO!" Asami yells trying to run over to Korra, but is restrained.
"What is wrong with you? You belong here now, don't forget that. She," Zaheer says pointing at Korra. "Isn't one of us." With that the guards hit and kick and hit and kick Korra until she is out of breath. She is bleeding from her nose and mouth and her older wounds reopened.
"Want to give up yet?"
"Fuck you."
Zaheer's frown deepens, he looks at a small clock on the wall.
"We don't have time for this." He pulls out a gun holding it to Korra's forehead. "You will help or you will die."
"Do you think I actually care if you kill me? If I have to become a martyr for my country, the world, and everyone in it, so be it."
"Alright then." Zaheer leaves the room, the tension in the air is so thick you could cut it with a knife. She looks at Asami giving her a small smile, reassuring her. Of what? Korra didn't know, but she doesn't want Asami to be upset. In the same moment, Zaheer returns pushing someone into the room. He is limping and has on a military uniform, exactly like hers, a bag over his head and zip ties tying his wrists together. They pull over a metal chair placing it in front of Korra, once he's seated they snatch the bag from his head.
"BOLIN!"
"Korra!" He says trying to speak but his voice hard to hear and distant. "So glad you are ok." Before Korra can respond, Zaheer punches Bolin hard in the face.
"You are going to help us build that weapon."
"No." Zaheer targets the leg Bolin wouldn't put pressure on and kicked it out, cracking the bone. Bolin screams in pain.
"STOP IT!"
"Then do what I ask."
"No Korra, don't." Zaheer holds a gun to Bolin's head this time instead.
"Then, you will watch your friend die." He says pulling back the hammer.
"STOP… just stop. I will do it. Just don't kill him."
"Very good. Oh, don't look so defeated. Here, I will be kind enough to allow him to help you, that way we can move up that deadline. Asami, take them to get fixed up, then show them the lab, the food court and let them meet the team helping with the project. You are to begin working on it in two days. See Korra, we aren't that bad we just have to do what we must for the greater good." Korra says nothing as Zaheer smiles walking away, the guards and the others follow suit.
"FUCK!" Korra yells. Asami hugs her gently before cutting her down and cutting Bolin out of his restraints. She tells them to stay while she gets Opal.
"Korra," Bolin says trying to get the Alpha's attention. "We will figure something out, we always do. This isn't your fault and I know you are going to beat yourself up about this and before you do, don't. We will get through this, I know Kuvira will be looking for us. Ok?" Korra nods. Asami arrives with Opal, who helps support Bolin taking him to his room, while Asami takes Korra to hers. Korra sits on the cot as Asami starts to clean up the cuts on her face. She is using her scent to comfort Korra, caress her face here and there as she works.
"This is going to be to be a personal question but what is someone as sweet as you doing in a place like this?" Asami blushes a bit but smiles at the Alpha's complement.
"Oh, you don't want to hear about that."
"Of course I do. I want to know about you. Other than Bolin and Kai, you are the only other friend I have here."
"Ok," Asami pauses thinking of her words before continuing to dab the alcohol wipes on her cut, might Korra add that they sting like a bitch. "I was sold to the Red Lotus some years ago to settle my father's debt to them, he promised a long time ago that he would come for me, but I have yet to see him."
"Maybe he is trying, but something is making it diffiult?"
"Yea there is. I read in a paper that was snuk in to the compound, that he has a new family. He got rid of me for money to create his own company called Future Industries."
"Oh."
"Yea and I plan to take it all away from him when I find a way out of this mess… Guess I'm not that sweet huh?"
"Yes you are, he deserves what he is gonna get. And Asami, I promise you. I will get you out of this."
"Thank you Korra." Asami says giving her a small smile.
A/N: I am moving back to school, so I will have another chapter up once I get settled. Thanks for reading!
