Sorry I haven't updated lately. I've been really busy. But two things. First I will answer a question that came from Masterkungfu2013.
Q: How is it happening (the visions), is it coming from where Korra is meeting Aang or another source?
A: …...I really don't want to answer this because its a spoiler...But I will answer. The visions are being sent from Aang. That's all I'll say. Keep reading to find out how and why though.
And two...read and review.
A month had past. Neither one had spoken to each other. The nights were short and the days long. There seemed to be no balance anymore. Korra stayed with Aang and was never seen. Of course everyone was concerned. Korra was always in public helping to keep the city safe, but now you didn't see her at all. But she didn't want to be seen. Her stomach now was a little round. If you didn't know she was pregnant you would have thought she was eating too much. She wasn't doing much eating but she was doing much meditating. Instead of being hot headed and impatient, Korra was now peaceful and calm. Her eyes and hair were a shade lighter. She now focused on the present and always questioned the outcome of decisions. Korra didn't stress over anything. You could just say she became another Aang with a better temper.
Korra was now meditating sitting directly in front of Aang. Aang kept his gaze on her. Today they were trying to see into the past. But not Aang's past.
"Okay Korra now just think about your mother or father. Which ever one you choose."
Korra thought hard about her father. She thought about the way he looked, his voice, his smile. Then it clicked. Korra was now shivering and felt snow touch her bare arms. She opened her eyes and saw the water tribe. But it looked different. Korra stood up and walked into tribe. She saw many men leaving to go hunting. All that remained were the women and children. Korra was confused. She had Aang send her hair to see how her parents met. Not to see the water tribe in the past. But then she heard someone yelling.
"Tonraq!"
Korra's eyes lit up and she followed the yells. She then found herself standing in a hut. In front of her was a man with his back to her. In front of him was a woman. She looked about forty and Korra noticed she looked just like her father. Korra didn't even hear a word they said. She was anxious for the man to turn around. When he did Korra about died. Her father was tall but kind of...fat. He was good looking though. But his facial expression wasn't a good one. He seemed upset. Tonraq practically walked through Korra and out the hut. She was about to follow him when another man walked through the door. He was shorter than her father and slimmer. Korra recognized him as her uncle. He said something that caught her attention.
"I'm glad he's leaving mother. He's always in my business. I can run the Northern Water Tribe by myself."
Korra's eyes widened. Her father was from the Northern Tribe not the Southern. Korra saw now why he left. Her uncle was the ruler and her father was quite jealous. It all made sense why they didn't talk much. Korra then turned around and walked out of the hut. She was going to go look for her father but instead she found herself at the Southern Water Tribe. She recognized the buildings, the people, and even the animals. Korra's heart was warmed by the thought of home. Then she was filled with sadness. She didn't even tell her parents about the baby. But her sadness was interrupted by a man walking through her. It was Tonraq and he was lugging his few items he had on a sled behind him. But instead of going into the tribe he went out into the snowy lands. Korra followed and watched as he built a small hut from what he had. He built it quick too. Her father was always strong. The she followed him inside. It was small. Not extravagant. Just a place to sleep. But she noticed her father was crying. She never once seen her father cry. She couldn't take it she came back to9 Aang. Aang looked at her with confusion on his face.
"I can't stay there and watch my father cry. And plus what was your reason for sending me there? I just wanted to see how my parents met."
"Korra," Aang started, "Your father had a rough past and he wasn't always as tough as you think he is. He did leave home to make a better life for himself. He didn't want to be under the greatness of his brother. I sent you back because all of this leads up to something..." Aang trailed off.
Korra looked at him intently as if searching for an answer. But then Aang snapped his fingers in her face and Korra closed her eyes. When she opened them she was at the Southern Water Tribe again. This time she was in the middle of the snow and she saw a woman. Slim little thing with long dark brown hair. The woman was surrounded by wolves. Korra was frightened. She wanted to help but couldn't. Then the woman shrieked and dropped some kind of book. Korra ran towards her trying to see if she could do something but she still could not. Then her father appeared. He fought against the wolves with his water bending. Korra realized he was a powerful water bender. Each shard of ice he threw stuck the wolves, he never missed. When the wolves ran, the woman ran up to Tonraq and hugged him tight. Korra now got a better look at the woman and realized it was her mother. But she looked so young, like a child. Korra closed her eyes and opened them again. She now saw something so similar to her situation. Her father and mother were siting close and talking in almost a whisper. Korra sat on the cold snow beside them and listened.
"Tonraq...I just...you're the only one I can trust."
"I know...but what will people say when they find out?"
"And we're not married."
Senna began to cry. Tears streamed down her face and Tonraq held her close.
"I know you're scared, so am I. But we will get through this, one day at a time."
A tear streamed down Korra's face and she couldn't stay there more no more. The hurt she felt. At least her father stayed by her mother's side. But Mako...left. Korra couldn't take the hurt. She closed her eyes and never opened them. Even when she felt warm arms hug her close. She knew whose arms they were. But she also knew it was an illusion. She was imagining it. Then she opened her eyes and saw red. She pulled back from the hug and saw Mako. But it wasn't real. It wasn't the same. Korra closed her eyes and opened them once again. Now she was looking at Aang who seemed to be meditating. Instead of bothering him Korra got up and left. She needed to take a walk.
Meanwhile
His mind wasn't where it was suppose to be. His heart wasn't in his work. So where was it?
Lin had sent Mako home after he couldn't answer these questions. He wasn't upset that she sent him home. He need sleep. Or so he thought. Walking to his room at the Island he ran into someone. Mako fell down and so did the other person. He stood up and looked to see he had ran into. HE was going to yell at them for not watching where they were going. But he didn't h just stared. It was Korra. His heart stopped and his mind went blank. Then he held out his hand to help her up. She didn't accept it at first. But then she took it. Their hands locked and he pulled her up. They stood there in silence. Korra looked at the floor and so did he. Mako then looked at her and noticed her face was puffy and her stomach was a little round. His eyes lowered. He was regretting leaving. But was it too late? She wouldn't even look at him.
"Korra..."
Korra didn't even look up. Why would she talk to someone who left her? How could she forgive him so easily? She couldn't. As much as she wanted his arms around her and to know he was here. But she didn't want him to get off so easy.
"Mako don't start. I don't want to talk about this now. Just please leave me be."
With that Korra turned around and left. Leaving Mako standing there. He couldn't blame her. It was all his fault. He came back too late. But now what was he to do?
"I gotta make this right."
I know it was confusing. But Aang had a reason for all of what happened in this chapter. The next chapter will explain this one. So review and leave any questions, comments, complaints.
