"I love you," I whispered again, looking into her eyes which widened with shock. "How could you not see it Korra? I've loved you since I first saw you." I couldn't stand looking into her eyes as I said the last part. Lowering my head I stared at the ground. When she didn't respond I sighed and made to turn away, silently chastising myself. She stopped me though. Throwing her hands around my waist she hugged me. When she let go she looked into my astonished eyes with the biggest grin I had ever seen on her face.
"I love you too, city boy." My heart jumped and I scooped her up in my arms and kissed her full on the mouth. When we came up for air she was laughing giddily. "Finally," she teased, poking me in the chest. "It took you long enough." I didn't know what to say so I just laughed with the pure joy knowing that the woman I loved, loved me back.
Recovering my voice I set her down. "Let's go take a walk. The others won't miss us for a while."
"With pleasure," she said with a smile. As we walked towards the trees on Air Temple Island I couldn't stop looking at her. She glanced at me, a teasing smirk on her face. "What?" she asked. I smiled before turning away. I had to tell her.
We soon reached the tree line and after walking aimlessly through the trees hand in hand I stopped her. She turned to me with a questioning look. "Before this goes anywhere I have to tell you something," I looked at the ground. "Agni this is hard but-"
"I hate to interrupt," a cold voice sneered out of the darkness. Oh spirits no! He's here, Korra's not safe. I quickly shielded Korra as Amon stepped through the trees.

My blood ran cold as Amon stepped into view. His mask hid his expression but his eyes were full of glee. He was soon followed by his lieutenant and at least half a dozen chi blockers. "Amon," Mako spat, trying to shield me from view. Amon stepped forward, eyes gleaming.
"Don't worry Mako I'm not here for the avatar," he sneered. "I'm here for a traitor." Traitor? What was he talking about? Noticing my look of confusion Amon laughed gleefully. "So you didn't tell her?" Mako was glaring hatefully at Amon but didn't say anything.
"Tell me what?" I asked laying a hand on Mako's arm. He wouldn't look at me. "Tell me what Mako?" I repeated, louder.
"Oh this is even better than I had anticipated," Amon said with a chuckle. "Well, little avatar it seems that your boyfriend has been less than truthful." I shook my head still confused. "Mako here has been working for me for the past five years." I shook my head.
"That's Impossible, Mako wouldn't do something like that, you liar" I snarled. Amon shook his head.
"Go on Mako, tell her," Amon taunted. When he didn't respond he continued. "Tell her about your special assignment that you begged for."
Mako's gaze remained fixed on the ground, but he spoke. "Just take me and let her go." He growled. I looked at him with confusion. I stared at him. Had he lost his mind?
"No Mako!" I exclaimed loudly.
"It's true Korra!" He yelled. "I lied and tricked you all so that I could give you to this evil piece of shit in exchange for money." His eyes glistened and he turned away, leaving me feeling as if I had just been sucker punched in the gut.
"What?" I rasped. "So everything…all of it was a lie?" He turned towards me sadly.
"It began as that but I fell in love with you Korra. I told Amon I wouldn't do that to you and that's why they're here for me, because I'm a traitor."
"Isn't that sweet?" Amon sneered. "But I've had enough." He motioned his chi blockers toward Mako.

I closed my eyes readying myself for the Electricity that would soon course its way through my body, but it didn't come. Instead I felt Korra's warm hand in mine then she yanked me back knocking me off my feet my head hit a rock and I lay there stunned. I focused just in time to hear Korra say "…Me instead." What was she talking about? I heard Amon laugh and then chi blockers attacked Korra, tying her hands behind her back.
I struggled to my knees in time to see Korra electrocuted by the lieutenant and screaming in pain before falling unconscious. "Korra!" I screamed trying to get to my feet. Two chi blockers came and restrained me. I watched desperately as Korra was dragged away by chi blockers and out of sight. I struggled, calling out for her but it was useless. Amon walked toward me eyes gleaming in the dim light. "Let her go!" I snarled at Amon. "It's me you want."
He chuckled at this. "Mako, Mako, Mako," he said in a condescending tone. "Don't you see? We never wanted you." I looked at him, confused. He sighed at my stupidity. "We knew the avatar would never let us take her precious boyfriend, she would give in without a fight. It would be quick and easy." He leaned in closer, "you played your part well Mako."
My eyes widened, "no." Amon smiled. No, I couldn't have played a part in this. I swore to protect her when I had left Amon.
"She really does love you, you know." He leaned in closer. His eyes were level with mine. "Keep that in mind when you bury her body." Fear griped my stomach.
"Don't you touch her-" I screamed, struggling like mad to escape, but his booted foot came around, knocking me square on the temple. The last thing I saw was his eyes, full of victory, before I fell to the ground. I managed one last weak "Korra…" before blackness was all I saw.
