Korra's POV

I went home earlier than usual, intending to take a break from my night job. Jason had been sitting in between my parents, watching television when I came in. The little Firebender smiled broadly before running towards me. I smiled back and picked him up in my arms, giving his cheek a gentle kiss. I walked over to my parents and my mom informed me that Asami had called.

I went over to the phone and called her back. She answered the phone and told me that she wanted Jason and me to come over. I smiled at that and told her I would, I definitely needed a break. My best friend asked that I bring a baiting suit for both me and Jason. After a quick confirmation we hung up and I told the little tyke the news, causing his eyes to light up.

We arrived early the next morning and Asami greeted us at the front door, looking as happy as I was to finally be able to spend time together. I had missed the simpler times. She asked us to change and told us to go to the back of the house where the pool was when we finished.

Shortly after Jason and I came in I noticed she had all sorts of toys to use in the water for him. The little Firebender ran up to her and she picked him up, showing him the various toys she had gotten him before getting in the pool. I sat on the edge, watching as they played. Asami was a great aunt, that much was obvious.

"Korra, aren't you going to get in?" she called.

"Get in, Mom!" Jason called excitedly swimming towards me. I chuckled at that, picking him up and placing him on my lap. I noticed Asami staring at me and raised a brow in response.

"Never thought I'd see the day," she began, a teasing smirk on her face. "You've gone domestic on me."

I rolled my eyes at this but smiled nonetheless, kissing Jason's temple.

"Come on, Momma!" the boy ordered, tugging on my arm. I laughed.

"I have to go to the bathroom first," I said. "Then I'll get in."

"Well go and hurry up!" Asami said as I handed him back to her.

"I will," I replied, practically running inside.

I was walking out of the bathroom when I heard someone arguing over the phone. I frowned at this, noticing that Hiroshi Sato's office was a door down. I thought about ignoring it and going back downstairs but I thought about recent events and I just couldn't. I went towards the door and noticed it was open so I just stood outside, listening to the conversation.

"I assure you, everything is going exactly as planned," the industrialist repeated. "The Dragon Flats incident has bought us some time." My eyes widened at this. "Trust me; soon we will be able to strike with everything we've got."

I'd heard enough. I quickly went downstairs and started to pack everything, changing into my clothes and asking Jason to get out of the water. He did as he was told and I wrapped him up in a towel, drying him off as Asami came towards us, looking confused.

"Korra, what's wrong?" she asked.

I didn't want to lie to her again. But hearing what I had from Hiroshi...I had to get out of there. "I just remembered that I have to go to work early," I replied, not meeting her gaze. "I need to drop off Jason before it gets dark."

"I can take him later," Asami offered.

I shook my head. "I'm sorry, Asami," I apologized. And I really was. I hated having to leave so abruptly, especially when we'd just started hanging out again. "I'll come visit some other time," I added as I put the little Firebender's shoes on before picking him up.

"Okay," she replied sounding disappointed.

I forced myself not to look back at her as I left the Sato mansion, getting on Naga to go back to the island. When we arrived, I gave Jason a bath before looking for my dad, explaining that I had to go to work early. He nodded at this and the little Firebender gave my cheek a kiss as I handed him over to his 'grandpa' as he started calling him. I smiled at this, returning the kiss before going to headquarters.

When I arrived at headquarters, Howl was already there. I took in a deep breath before walking over to him, and sitting on the stool. The sentry raised a brow at this before walking over to me. I let out a sigh before I told him what I'd heard. He didn't seem the least bit surprised, and I didn't blame him. We sat in silence for a long time before I spoke up.

"I've replayed what I heard in my head more than fifteen times," I said. The sentry didn't answer. "I just can't believe he's involved."

"We all have blind spots when it comes to family and friends," Howl replied. "The lesson you need to learn here is that blind trust can be dangerous."

I looked up at him, clenching my jaw before looking away. He was right, and we both knew it.

"You said Lieutenant mentioned that the 'Endgame' was coming," he said. "What is it?"

"I don't know," I answered. "But with all the bold attacks Amon has done, it can't be good." He nodded at this and I closed my eyes before speaking again. "You warned me that whatever he was involved in, it was something dangerous. I need to know how dangerous."

I stood up and grabbed my bag with my suit. Howl watched quietly until I was fully dressed, but face still uncovered.

"What are you going to do?" the sentry asked.

"I need to have a chat with Asami's father," I replied, putting on the mask.

As I made my way to the industrialist's office I couldn't help but feel that this was wrong. Hiroshi had never said or done anything to show that he didn't like Benders; I mean…he sponsored our team! Bolin would go to his house like Mako and I did. He wouldn't be involved in our disappearance…he couldn't be.

I climbed up to the window and took a deep breath before opening it and coming inside. Asami's father seemed taken aback by this as he stood from his seat. I took out my blades and held them in front of me.

"Hiroshi Sato," I began. "You and I have a pending conversation."
