"It's okay, Korra. I'll never let you go." Mako said gently to Korra. The young lovers were still locked in their intimate embrace after Korra finally came out of the Avatar State. However, their moment was short-lived. Clapping was heard and when everybody turned around, they saw Amon clapping, obviously enjoying the romance.
"Well, well, well. The Avatar has finally found her soulmate. Too bad the two of you won't be able to live long enough to be together forever." Amon finally spoke with pure evil in his voice. Amon instantly sprinted towards Mako and threw a gigantic wave at him, causing the teenage firebender to hit his head on a piece of ice and get knocked out. Amon then walked towards the vulnerable teen and created a stake made out of ice, preparing to give the final blow. Korra got aggressive.
"AMON! GET YOUR FREAKIN SICK, BLOODBENDING HANDS AWAY FROM MY BOYFRIEND!" Korra angrily demanded. With no time to waste, Korra full out sprinted towards Amon and suddenly jumped into the air. Amon then noticed that Korra's right leg was on fire and unfortunately before Amon was able to defend himself, Korra's fire leg was used to kick Amon right across the face. Amon then fell to the ground. He wasn't moving. Korra, thinking that it was over, ran over to her beloved firebender and positioned him in her arms. He had a small cut on the back of his head, which was also bleeding a little bit. He also had a medium bruise on the left-hand corner of his head.
"Mako! Are you okay? It's me, Korra! Please say something! ANYTHING!" Korra shouted with tears of worry in her eyes. Slowly, Mako's eyes began to open and he started to receive a clear view of his new girlfriend. When he saw her frowning, Mako began to feel stupid for not blocking Amon's water attack.
"Korra, it's alright. It's just a few bruises, so I'll pretty much live." Mako reassured with a small smile. Korra kissed Mako on the cheek and helped him up on his feet. Mako looked around the area with concern, causing Korra to get worried.
"What's wrong?" Korra asked.
"Amon. Where is he?" Mako asked firmly.
"Dead." Korra replied, sounding pretty dark. Korra pointed at Amon's direction with her eyes closed. She just wanted to forget everything that had happened with this whole Equalist situation and Amon's rampage. However, Korra's train of thought was paused when she felt a gloved hand on her shoulder. Korra turned around and saw Mako's face. He looked pretty worried.
"Korra? If Amon's dead, HOW THE HECK IS HE STANDING IN FRONT OF US WITH HIS FREAKIN HAND ON HIS FACE?!" Mako shouted firmly, trying not to hurt Korra's feelings. Korra turned around and gasped. Amon was just standing there. There was a small puddle of blood forming at his feet and she could've sworn that she saw some burned skin. Once Amon removed his hand from his face, Korra and the entire gang screamed and reacted with terror.
"OH MY GOD!" Korra screeched, beginning to cry due to fright.
"THIS JUST HAS TO BE ANOTHER TRICK!" Mako shouted with anger.
"NOW I REALLY WON'T BE ABLE TO SLEEP!" Bolin stated with his face pretty much turning green.
"WHAT'S WITH THIS GUY?" Asami screamed and was holding her hand to her mouth, trying her best not to vomit.
The sight was horrifying. Amon's face was completely burned due to Korra's kick. It looked like Amon's fake scar, only this time it was real, there was blood, pieces of burned skin were literally falling onto the ground, and his left eye was not only burned, but it actually fell out of its socket. Amon really got infuriated. This time his sights were only set on Korra. In a quick second, the bloodbender zoomed past everybody else and was holding Korra by the neck. Mako was about to stop him but Amon used waterbending to trap his arms and feet and the same thing happened to Bolin and Asami. Korra was really starting to sob. Just seeing Amon's freshly burned face not only made her want to vomit, but it made her wanting to just run into Mako's arms and just cry.
"Amon! I really didn't mean to burn your face! I just wanted to kick you in order t-t-to get you knocked o-out! I n-never realized that I burned you until I saw y-y-your face! Please j-just let me go!" Korra sobbed, hoping and praying to the spirits that he would actually let her go. Amon threw Korra onto the ground and used waterbending to chain Korra's legs and arms. Amon got down and just stared at Korra.
"Now you will know what it's like to feel pain!" Amon shouted. He then started punching and smacking Korra multiple times in the face, kicked her in the sides only two times, and kicked her legs, which began to bruise just with one kick to each leg. Korra was screeching and sobbing at the same time due to the pain and everybody had to watch in horror as Korra was getting treated like a punching bag. Mako, having seen enough, started to cry along with everyone else.
"This isn't right. Korra might die and there's nothing anyone of us can do!" Bolin whispered. He then looked around the area to see if there was anybody who might be able to do something. Asami and Mako were still stuck due to the ice and Tenzin somehow disappeared from where he was. Bolin found this odd since Tenzin got knocked out hardcore by Amon a few hours ago. Suddenly, he heard silence. Amon had stopped.
Korra was just laying on the ground with a few cuts and bruises and seemed relieved and yet terrified that the beating was over. Asami, Mako, and Bolin looked at each other and then looked back at Amon and Korra. Amon created a big ice dagger made out of water and walked towards Korra. Korra, seeing the dagger, once again started to sob uncontrollably and started begging Amon not to do what she thought he was going to do, which was stabbing her right in the heart. Amon then lifted the dagger up into the air.
"DON'T DO IT!" Mako, Asami, and Bolin all screamed at once with tears in her eyes.
"Good-bye, Avatar. Tell Aang that I said that I feel bad that he was reincarnated into you." Amon said with a half smile on his face. Korra then started to scream, wishing it was over. Before Amon could even lower the dagger, a huge gust of wind carried the dagger out of Amon's hands and over the cliff. Everybody turned around to find it was actually Tenzin, who had finally become useful. He then released sharp waves of air to cut Asami, Bolin, and Mako out of the ice cuffs. He then later ran and began to fight Amon.
"You go and take care of Korra and get her away from here. Bolin and I will help Tenzin subdue Amon." Asami told Mako. As the other two teens ran, Mako ran as fast as he could towards Korra. When he finally got to her, he used firebending to quickly melt the ice and Korra quickly hugged him and sobbed while Mako was saying calming things to calm her down. A few seconds later, Korra finally calmed down.
"C'mon sweetie, I gotta get you out of here." Mako said gently.
"No way! Everyone else needs our help!" Korra replied worried. As soon as she said that, Bolin, Asami, and Tenzin all flew past them and managed to land on their feet. Korra and Mako also got up on their feet and they all stared at Amon.
"That son of a bitch." Mako whispered to himself with gritted teeth.
"You filthy peasants! You all foiled my plot and now all of you will pay!" Amon screamed, looking at Mako and Korra, who were three feet in front of everybody else. Amon then ran towards them in full force with two big ice daggers in his hands.
"Korra, what are we gonna do?" Mako asked quickly. An idea quickly popped into Korra's head like her favorite buttered popcorn.
"How about we combine our bending into one large attack?" Korra asked confidently. Mako nodded, knowing this was their only option and that it was all or nothing. Korra and Mako formed their elements in opposite circular rotations and used the technique to create one super element and they hurled it at Amon, who was still running towards them.
"Hey, Amon! Tell Ozai I said that he should think twice about messing with the Avatar and their friends!" Korra shouted with confidence. The attack finally reached Amon and pushed Amon of the cliff. Bolin and Asami ran towards the cliff to see Amon. The water had disappeared and Amon then started to catch on fire. By the time the bloodbender fell into the ocean, he was burned everywhere. Asami and Bolin stood there for two minutes and looked around to see if they saw any movement. There was none. Amon was finally finished!
"Ding dong! Amon is gone!" Bolin finally said with glee. Everyone cheered and hugged each other. Bolin gave Asami a huge bear hug and Mako was careful when he hugged Korra. Everyone then came together and had an gigantic group hug! A few minutes later, everyone was talking to each other and Korra had finally finished healing her final wound. She now had zero bruises and some faint scars.
"How are your wounds, sweetie?" Mako asked Korra, worried that she wasn't able to heal them.
"Thank Agni that Katara taught me to heal wounds! I managed to heal the bad wounds so the only things I have are some scratches." Korra replied relieved.
"Thank goodness! For a second there, Bolin and I were worried that we would have to send you to Katara!" Asami said while laughing with relief. Everyone started to laugh. Korra was so glad that she had such loving friends who were actually willing to put their lives on the line to help her.
Tenzin finally stepped into the group circle. Everyone was still mad at him since he caused Amon to drop Korra. Even Korra was annoyed! Everybody just crossed their arms as Tenzin walked up to him. He just looked at everyone from left to right as they all stared at him sternly.
"Okay, now that Amon has been vanquished, we will alert Republic City tomorrow about what happened. In the meantime, all of you should be apologizing to me for blaming me for causing Korra to fall when she's not even dead. This also goes for you, Korra." Tenzin stated in a greedy tone. Korra then got really upset. Tenzin thinks that he can just expect everybody to say sorry after he dropped her? She wasn't going to let this stand.
"Oh no! You made Amon drop me! You don't know what it's like having to try to get out of the ocean after having your bending getting temporarily taken! Time to learn respect!" Korra said with an evil grin. She earthbended the ice to get Tenzin stuck and not even airbending could get him out, causing Tenzin to complain while causing everybody else to laugh. Suddenly, it started to snow and everybody scattered around to play. Mako and Korra were just walking around enjoying the snow.
"That reminds me. How did you manage to get back up here with your bending restored?" Mako asked.
"I'll tell you later. Right now, I just wanna be with you enjoying the snow." Korra replied smiling. Mako leaned in and kissed her on the lips, causing Korra to place her hands on his shoulders while Mako placed his hands on Korra's cheeks. However, their romantic moment was interrupted when a snowball hits Mako in the back of the neck. He turned around to find Asami and Bolin grinning.
"C'mon guys! You and Korra versus me and Bolin!" Asami shouted at Mako. Mako and Korra ran towards them holding each other's hands. While a beautiful sunset was finally overcoming the dark clouds, Korra and Mako vowed to remember the day when they finally defeated Amon and how their love became stronger than the storm.
