Companion for ch 26.
"Hey," Korra and Asami walked into the gardens, where Opal, Jinora, Kai, Bolin, Ikki, Mako and Wei were.
"Hi," They chorused back. Bolin was sitting under a tree, Opal leaning back against his chest. Jinora was reading a newspaper, sitting on a stone bench. Kai and Ikki were sitting at her feet, playing with three winged lemurs. Mako and Wei were leaning against the railing of the covered walkway that when around the garden, talking.
"What are we doing?"Korra asked, taking a seat in the grass next to Bolin. Asami sat between her legs wrapping Korra's arms around her waist.
"Nothing, just killing time until dinner," Bolin said.
"We passed home, saw Tu," Asami said.
"Oh yeah?" Mako asked, "How are they doing? I've been meaning to pass, I haven't been around enough since the big fight,"
"Me either, you want to go tomorrow if you have time?" Bolin asked.
"Yeah, sure," His brother nodded.
"Can I come with? I haven't really spent much time with your family,"
"Sure. I'd love it for you to come. Medium U still doesn't believe you're my girlfriend,"
"We told them about the charity match, they're really excited."
"Oh yeah, they've never seen us play. They'll love it for sure," Bolin said slapping his knee.
"Tu certainly was excited,"
"Talking about the match, there was an article announcement the sports section," Kai said tapping the papers.
Asami nodded, "Yeah, I know. There are already calls about tickets. At this rate we'll be sold out in no time,"
Mako chuckled, "Well between our family, and all you guys and the rest of the Beifongs that's half the stands right there,"
"It's great! We never had so many people we know come to watch,"
"Back when we were pro-benders our circle of acquaintances consisted mainly of criminals,"
"For really?" Wei asked.
"You don't know? Mako and Bolin used to be in the triad," Opal said.
"Dude, that's so cool,"
"Not as cool as it sounds," Mako said.
"Not, that's very cool. Bolin that's another reason I want you to be my brother-in-law," Wei said holding up a hand. Bolin high fived him and Opal shook her head.
"You still haven't told us you you're playing for the charity match," Kai said.
"We don't know yet," Korra said.
"But haven't three other teams' agreed to take part?"
"Yeah, but we won't know who's going against who until the night of the games," Asami said, "There will be three matches in all. Before the matches the teams will pull straws to decide who will face who and then the winners of those two fights will face off in the third match. That way it's fair as possible."
"I just hope we get to face the Wolfbats in our first match. I so want to pay back those cheating grub worms."
"They only way we won't face them is if they lose in their first match, because we're planning to win both games," Mako said. Korra and Bolin grinned and nodded.
"We'll see how well they'll fair against us if they can't play dirty," Bolin said.
"I'll be making sure personally that all the officials are honest." Asami said, "No one is going to cheat you guys again,"
Korra kissed her cheek quickly, "With you in charge I'm sure no one will,"
