Disclaimer: DO NOT OWN Legend Of Korra!


I'm running away from someone but I'm not sure who. I can hear them shouting something.

"You will not get away from me, Avatar!"

Avatar? They found the Avatar?

I was suddenly pulled over to side into an alleyway.

"Come on, Korra! We have to get you out of here!" the voice sounded so familiar. It was too dark to make out the face.

"Why? Who are you? What are we running from?"

They didn't answer me and we just kept running. We finally stopped after reaching an abandoned building. I followed the unknown figure inside. They lit up a fire in their hands and turned around.

"Mako?"

"He won't be able to find us here. At least I sure hope not."

""He? Who's he? Who are you talking about?" what was going on here?

"Korra, this is not a time to joke aro-" an explosion at the door cut him off.

There I saw whom he was talking about, a man wearing a full black outfit and a white mask. He started making odd hand movements and that's when I heard Mako's grunts.

Mako's body was being controlled not by him but the man. He flung Mako off into the wall and took over my body next. He brought me close to him and looked me straight in the eyes.

"I've got you now, Avatar."

I shot up from the desk. I have been having the same dream for weeks since we moved here. I don't understand why. Is there a meaning behind it?

"Hey? Hey, are you ok?" I heard someone ask. I looked up to see who it was," You were starting to worry me a bit. You were tossing in your sleep a bit.""

"Oh, no, I'm fine. Thanks, Emma."

""Are you sure?" she pointed at my forehead," You're sweating a little."

I felt my forehead and wiped the sweat off," Yeah, definitely sure. It's warm in here that's all."

"If you say so. Free period is over, so come on or you'll be late for your next class."

She tossed over my book bag and left. I got up and composed myself. Stupid dreams. Just freaking me out for no reason. Not like there is any point to it anyways. I fixed my ponytail and stepped out just to come across him.

"So, Emma told me you had quite a nap in free period today," Emma why must you tell him," Told me to keep an eye on you. Want to share what it was you were dreaming of?"

I rolled my eyes and kept walking," That's none of your business, Mako."

"No need to brush me off like that," I looked over at him ready to say something, but instead I kept walking," What is your problem, Korra?"

That made me stop in my tracks," What's my problem? What's myproblem? My problem is that people need to keep their nose where it belongs."

"I was just trying to help you, Korra. That doesn't mean you can give me a bad attitude."

"I don't have a bad attitude, Mako. If you want to help why don't you just step off and let me get to class," I snapped back and went off.

Geez, can't a girl just get to class in peace?

English was a bore, not that it's ever exciting either. I spent the class period trying to avoid Mako and his stares by drawing random doodles in my notebook.

The rest of the day went by pretty quick and walked with Bolin to the car.

"Mr. Evans too much homework! I can't even pay attention in class with that monotone voice of his," he began to do an impression of Mr. Evans," Today class we will be learning about the elements on the periodic table."

I giggled," Good impression of Mr. Evans, Bolin."

"You guys done playing around? We have to get to work," Mako scowled. Still mad over earlier I see.

"Chill, bro, Uncle Narook doesn't mind us being a few minutes late. What are you so uptight for today?"

I saw his glaring eyes meet mine," People are just pain sometimes."

"Maybe they wouldn't be such a pain if they would just let them deal with their own problems," I growled.

"Maybe they should quit being so stubborn and accept the help when offered."

Bolin looked back and forth between us, a confused looks dawning on his face," Did I miss something here? You guys always have some secret conversation between each other that I can never tell what you're talking about."

I was the first one to break from our gaze and smiled at Bolin," Sorry, why don't we just get going to work, huh?

"But―"

"Just get in the car, Bolin." Mako growled.


Narook's Noodle Shop-


"Korra, orders ready!" Narook shouted from the kitchen.

I picked up the plates of food, trying to balance them to make sure they didn't fall," Here you are. Enjoy your meal."

I heard the door's bell going off and went to seat the new customers," Table for how many? You."

"Hello, Korra, table for three."

"Hello, Tahno, sure right this way," I snarled. I didn't have to be nice to all the customers. I sat them down and took out my notepad and pencil," What would you all like to drink?"

"Water will be fine. So, Korra, I heard you joined the female Pro-bending team? You know I use to be a Pro-bender myself. I was the waterbender," he flipped his hair and ran his hands through it," I could give you some private lessons if you'd like."

I rolled my eyes and put the pencil behind my ear," I'll pass."

"Are you sure? Maybe we could even do something a little after that," he tries too hard.

Mako appeared beside me and nudged me away,"Korra, you have some more customers. I'll take care of them."

"Uh, yeah, sure," I guess he isn't mad anymore. I was getting ready to leave but I turned back around and whispered something in his ear," Thank you." From the corner of my eye I could've sworn I saw his straight face turn into a slight smile.

After the last customer left, we locked the doors and flipped the sign to get ready to clean.

"So, Korra, I see Tahno has grown a liking for you," Bolin smirked as he wiped off the countertops.

I huffed," Unfortunately, he has. He even offered private lessons."

He burst out into laughter," Are you kidding me? That guy tries way too hard to pick up a girl. He's on the Pro-bending team one season and he thinks he's all that."

"What happened? How come isn't on it this year?"

We heard a bin of dishes fall in the sink," Mako, don't you go breaking my dishes boy!"

" Sorry, Uncle Narook. Tahno was a no good cheater. He claimed to be the best, but he used the easy way to win. Started cheating in the middle of the season. Coach found out and kicked him off. Tahno's not allowed on the team anymore."

"That seems like Tahno," I picked up a clean rag and a started to clean the tables.

Geez, some of these people are slobs. You think they could clean up a little bit after themselves. I picked up some napkins off the floor when I heard the conversation going on between the three.

"Uncle Narook, you should've told us about these bills. We could've helped get some money for you," Bolin whispered.

"Eh, I didn't want to worry you boys. You have school to worry about," Narook, sweet old man.

"Uncle, you still have another two weeks to pay of the bills for the shop. We can help. Let us help," I could tell Mako was beginning to sound frustrated. I guess I would be too if my parents hadn't told me.

"Boys, let me worry about the money. You all have helped me enough with money. Let me handle this," I heard paper being crumpled up and exasperated sighs.

I stood back up and wiped down the last table. They all came out from the kitchen as if the conversation never happened," You done yet, Korra?"

"Yeah, I'm done," I took off the apron and put it back in place," We ready to go?"

Bolin snatched the keys from Mako's hands," I'm driving today!"

Before Mako could protest Bolin was already out of the resturant," I'll see you all Wednesday. Enjoy Pro-bending practice you three!"

I glanced over at Mako and he shrugged his shoulders," He asks about you. We told him. Let's go."


-NEXT DAY AFTER SCHOOL- (quick time skip you'll see why though)


"Alright, get your gear on everyone! We will be practicing together from now on since our female bending team is all ready. Mako, Emma, get over there to your right! Bolin, Chassity, to the left! Xavier, Korra, get in the middle! You'll be going against these four to work on fighting off the other elememts. We'll rotate from there and end practice for today."

Xavier and I assumed our positions, getting into a fighting stance. I stood in front of Chassity and Bolin. Coach counted down and blew his whistle. Bolin immediately threw a disc at me but I was able to dodge in time. Chassity threw another and I counter attacked with a whip of water. They continued to throw the discs in different directions as I dodged and attacked them. I was tired of being on defense mode and decided to go offense. In order to distract the two i sent three seperate streams of water into different directions so as to avert their eyes away from me. It bought me a few seconds and I was able to get a hit on Bolin. Chassity I wasn't so lucky with when she hit with a disc.

"Hey, Korra, ready to switch places?" I heard Xavier whisper.

"Let's do this."

We ducked low and rotated. Now I had to face Mako and Emma.

"Think you can handle the heat, Korra?" Emma grinned.

"I guess we're about to find out," I said before kicking over some water attacks.

This went on for another hour. Each team rotated until we got the last one.

Coach raised his arms up and blew his whistle," Alright, we're done here today. I'll see you all Friday!"

I took my helmet, my sweaty hair sticking to my face," Hey, Korra, good practice. I'm sure we'll take out the other teams."

"Definitely! They better watch out for the Fire Ferrets! You were pretty great out there too, Emma."

"Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime. You can bring Mako and Bolin along too. Or, uh, just Bolin. Here's my number," she scrawled it down on a gum wrapper and handed it to me before leaving to the locker room.


-At Korra's Home-


Parents weren't home and I'm just here trying to focus on this Math. I looked down at my book to see a bunch of jumbled up numbers. I threw my pencil down in frustration and slammed my book close.

"Who needs Algebra anyways. I think it's time for a food break."

I made my way over to the kitchen, poured myself a glass of milk, and grabbed my stash of cookies from the cupboards. I dunked my cookie into milk and just as I was about to take it out, I was distracted by a knock at the door. My cookie broke in half.

"Why do bad things happen to good people?" Who could be visiting me at my eating hour. I opened the door and placed my hand on my hip," I hope you realize you just made me commit cookie murder."

"Thank you for welcoming me in," Mako replied sarcastically as he walked in.

"You welcome," I cheered up," What brings you to my humble abode. Want anything to drink?"

"No thanks. I just came by to see if Bolin was here. Now that I see that he isn't I wanted to know if you maybe knew where he was."

"No, haven't talked to him since practice," he sighed and put on a look of concern," Mako, is there something wrong?"

He buried his head in his hands and mumbled something about Triple Threat Triads," What was that?"

"I think Bolin got himself into a mess that I'm going to have to get him out of."
