Korra awoke with a burning pain in her gut and head. She quickly noticed her surroundings of that of a hospital. She had bandages on various parts of her arms where she was hit from the attack last night. She looked to her right to see Mako next to her in a similar state but with a bandaged left arm.

"Mako," she cried out weakly. Korra extended her right arm to him. To her luck he was partially awake trying to brace his pain.

"Korra?" he replied weakly. "You're ok!"

"Yes," she said with a smile. "It takes more then a freak in a bat costume to put me down."

Just then Chief of Police: Lin Beifong walked into the room. She had a look of anger and worry on her face.

"Korra, Mako, are you two alright?" she asked with her usual ferocious tone.

"In pain but alright I guess," Mako answered.

"That's good to hear," she replied in a hurry. "You two need to tell me though, who was it that took you down and a dozen of my cops with you?"

Korra and Mako looked at one another in disbelief. Mako knew Korra went up against the man dressed like a bat but to what extent and how much she saw was questionable.

"He calls himself Batman," Korra replied. Lin looked in disbelief but was curious.

"Batman?" she asked. "What did he look like? What did he do apart from beat you up?"

"He was well over six feet tall and wore some kind of body armor," Mako answered.

"His cape," Korra began. "It was made of Dragon Scales. It was able to survive my firebending. He wore mostly black and had a belt that he constantly got tools from. One was a dart thing in the shape of a bat. And his mask, his mask. It covered all his face except his mouth and chin. But those eyes... those eyes. They were pure white."

Korra was acted slightly shocked when she mentioned the eyes. She then noticed that one of the bat shaped darts was stuck in her shirt. She took it out and handed it to Lin.

"This was it," Korra explained. Lin eyed to dart carefully.

"It's hand crafted," Lin explained while she tried to bend it. "And made of Platinum. I can't bend it. Would you say that this Batman is human?"

Korra and Mako both looked at one another in question. Given the circumstances of their defeat and what Batman was capable of. Needless to say they were unsure.

"I don't know," Mako said. "There were fifteen cops and nine equalists and he took out all of them."

Lin sat down at the end of Mako's bed; fiddling with the dart. She rubbed her forehead, contemplating what their next move should be. Just then Asami and Bruce walked into the room. Asami rushed to Korra and Mako.

"Thank the spirits you two are okay," Asami greeted the two. Bruce took quick notice at Mako's and Korra's injuries. I better ease up on them next time, Bruce thought to himself.

"What happened to you to?" Bruce asked. "Were you two mugged?"

"We were attacked by a figure while constructing a raid on a equalist hideout," Korra explained. "The figure called himself Batman."

"Batman?" Bruce said with a startled look. "He's in Republic City?"

Lin Beifong immediately responded.

"In Republic City!?" she shouted. "What do you know about him, and where else has he been!"

"Relax Ms. Beifong," Bruce asked nicely as he grabbed a chair to have a seat. "This Batman character is from my home in Gotham. I only ever met him once; he saved me from a mugger years ago. He must have made his way to fight the equalists or something. He is a vigilante of sorts. He doesn't like cops too much either."

Everyone in the room took in the information he just explained.

"Is that everything you know?" Lin asked with her interrogation voice.

"That's everything," Bruce said. Just then Alfred, Bruce's most loyal butler and best friend walked into the room.

"Sir, a quick word," Alfred asked.

"One moment please," Bruce told everyone as Alfred escorted him out of the room.

"Sooooo," Korra moaned. "You and Bruce seem to be hitting it off fairly well."

Asami snapped to attention and blushed at the comment. A day out followed by a romantic dinner was all it took for Asami to get absorbed by Bruce Wayne.

"Well I... Uhhhhh..." Asami stuttered. She knew she beaten. "He's something I'll tell you that. We went for dinner last night. It was incredible but short."

"What do you mean?" Korra asked. "About eightish or so he had to leave for something important. He was acted rather sketchy about it. But he made up for it this morning over breakfast."

"Someone's getting the royal treatment," Mako joked.

"Shut-up," she laughed.

Elsewhere. Alfred and Bruce were talking just outside Korra's hospital room.

"It is sitting in your private hangar sir," Alfred explained.

"Excellent as always Alfred," Bruce thanked. "It should make my search easier."

Bruce walked back into the room.

"I think we should head out Asami, our business deal is just a few hours and I still need to prepare a few things," Bruce explained.

"Ok," Asami answered. She gave Bruce a quick peck on his cheek. "See you at two."

Bruce and Alfred walked out to prepare for the business deal. Just then a doctor walked into the room. Chief Lin Beifong also left the room.

"Your injuries should be well healed by this point," he explained. "You will discharged this afternoon."

"That's good to hear, thank you," Korra said. The doctor walked out. "We can get back into the action soon enough."

"Uh no way!" Mako protested.

"What?" Korra responded with. "You need me to help get this guy."

"After what he did to you I'm not risking your safety," Mako proclaimed. Korra just looked at her boyfriend in disgust and anger.

"I think I've said this to just about everyone at this point but you do I'm the Avatar right?" Korra proclaimed smugly. Mako just looked in disbelief.

"That does not mean you're invincible!" Mako yelled. "Remember what Amon did to you?"

"Well... yeah but I also stopped him and saved you in the process," Korra replied.

"Look Korra," Asami cut in. "Mako just wants you to be safe. And besides, he's in no shape to go after this guy or the equalists."

"Yes," Mako answered as Asami started walking towards the door way. "Wait, what!?"

"Mako be reasonable," Asami explained. "I think it is best that you two rest up and recover fully instead of ending up here after every encounter. Beifong would understand."

"But, I... fine," Mako protested. Asami began to walk out of the room.

"And besides," Asami added as she walked out. "You two can work on your relationship."

"What!?" Korra and Mako shouted out as Asami escaped.
