A few months later…

Kanari sits on the bench, looking at the ground of the teams changing room. Mako looks over at her and smiles. Even in her uniform she looks beautiful. Her blonde hair is pulled back in a high ponytail to keep her long hair out of her face. Despite her efforts, her side bangs always fall from the tie and hang right over her amazing blue-green eyes. He notices that her eyes are dull rather than shinning with pure happiness like they normally are. They also hold a bit of sadness behind them. She was sick earlier this morning but insisted that she was fine and even though Mako begged her not to, she is still going to fight in her last pro bending match. They were all glad that Bolin is finally better but he knew that she loved the sport so dearly and would miss it.

Mako- "Kanari, are you sure you can play in the match today? You still seem like your sick. I don't want you to make things worse for yourself."

She looks up to him and smiles at his concern for her. He was so caring and considerate and that was always one of the reasons she loved him so much. He had been so helpful the last few days since she started getting sick. He even made her go to the doctor for him. She knew why she was sick and the doctor confirmed her theory, but she just couldn't tell him, not yet. She was waiting for the perfect moment, right after they win their match and the two would go to celebrate at her favorite restaurant that Mako always took her to. She took his hand and smiled at him.

Kanari- "Mako I'm fine, really. Please, this is my last match just let me be in it. I promise I'm perfectly fine."

Mako- "Are you sure, because Bolin can sub for you if you want."

Mako motions to Bolin who is being given one last healing session with Korra, he hears what Mako said and waves to Kanari.

Kanari- "Mako that's really not necessary. I will be fine."

She stands up and puts her arms around his neck. She then gives him a kiss to calm his nerves. He smiles at her and knows that everything will be all right. But deep down, Mako feels that something is wrong. He just pushes it out of his mind and focuses on the match again.

Kanari- "Besides, I have you to protect me."

The match begins. Korra easily knocks two of the players back to zone two. The third is aiming all of his fire at Kanari. Mako sees this and quickly comes to her side catching the ball of fire right before it hits her and sends it back towards the player, who falls off the back of the ring. Korra then takes out the other two players with ease and the Fire Ferrets have won the first round. The second round comes and the other team gangs up on Mako. He tires his best to fight back but he needs help. Kanari runs to his side to help fight them off. The earthbender does her best and knocks out the other teams waterbender. Korra joins them in their 2 on 3 fight. The other teams earthbender sends a disk aimed right at Kanari. She's distracted in her current one on one battle with the firebender and the disk hits her square in her stomach. The force throws her body to the ground behind her. She grabs her stomach and screams horribly at the pain. Mako runs to her side in panic. His eyes wide with fear

.

Mako- "STOP THE MATCH! STOP THE MATCH!"

The reff blows the whistle, signaling a time out. Mako gets on his knees beside Kanari who is curled up in pain, tears streaming down her face. He takes her hand tightly. He tries to calm down and he smiles at her. He then takes his hand and brushes her bangs out of her face.

Mako- "It's ok Kanari, they will get the medics and everything will be fine. Korra! Come here and heal her or something!"

Kanari- "No. Mako, you don't understand. I'm, AHHHHHHH!"

Kanari's eyes squint in pain and she grits her teeth trying not to yell again. Mako's eyes are wide open again. He wonders what could be wrong with her but nothing he knows comes to mind. He shuts his eyes; he can't stand to see her in such pain. Korra is now by her side. Her hands covered with glowing blue water. She puts her hands on Kanari's stomach gently. Her face shows a confused expression as she tries to heal her. Something about this healing feels different.

Korra- "Huh, that's strange."

The paramedics arrive and Korra let's them handle everything. They put Kanari on a white stretcher and carry her to a satomobile. Mako runs to be with her but is stopped by the doctor. He was the same doctor Kanari saw only a week or so ago about her being sick.

Mako-"What's going on? I've never seen anyone hurt so bad by a disk before. Is she going to be ok?"

Doctor-"We will try the best we can. She should be fine but we aren't sure how bad the baby has been hurt. I told her not to participate in the match today but she obviously didn't listen to me."

Mako- "The what?"

Doctor- "She didn't tell you yet, did she?"

A nurse calls the doctor over to the satomobile. They both get in and drive off to the hospital. Mako stands there, eyes wide and mouth open in shock. How could she not tell me this? He thought. He knew there was something wrong. But, how? Well he knew how. But, when? Then he remembered. Ember Island.
