We're back on chapter thirty-three.
REMINDER: I DO NOT OWN LEGEND OF KORRA OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS.
Meanwhile, at Pro-bending Arena, where a large poster of Ginger and Nuktuk was hanging above the main entrance. A crowd of people as a Satomobile limousine arrives.
Children were having their picture taken with Juji and Roh-Tan. "Say 'Nuktuk'!"
Bolin, and Ginger stepped out of the limo, arm-in-arm. The two were walking into the arena.
"There they are, folks. The sweethearts of the big screen, and Republic City's most famous couple, Bolin and Ginger."
Bolin walks inside with Ginger. "Wow, that was fun! And did you hear what Shiro said? We're Republic City's most famous couple."
"Bolin, you're a doll, but you're as dumb as the rocks you bend. We are not a couple." Ginger said.
"That's not what Shiro said!" Bolin shouts as Ginger walks away.
As Bolin and Ginger entered the Arena, Asami walks to Mako, who was wearing a trench coat, a hat, and glasses.
"I hope this plan works." he said.
"It will. For Korra's sake." Asami said before she entered the Arena.
Gang was shoving a Varri-cake in his mouth outside of the arena, including Lu. Lin Beifong steps in from the side.
"Stop stuffing your moustaches with Varri-cakes and get to your post!" she snapped.
Gang stands at attention with Lu. "You got it, boss."
"You two are the pinnacle of refinement." Beifong said sarcastically.
Another limo arrived, and Raiko steps out of the limo.
"This star-studded event just keeps getting star-studdier folks. President Raiko just arrived, and he's being greeted by entrepreneur extraordinaire, Varrick." Shiro said.
Varrick approaches him.
"There he is, my most honoured guest." Varrick handshakes Raiko's. "What do you think?" The two walks forward.
"No expense has been spared, I brought in the finest entertainers from Ba Sing Se, and the best food from around the world. Heck! I even had this red carpet imported from the Fire Nation! They make the best red stuff over there. Fact! All right, picture time."
"Varrick, you didn't have to do all this for me." Raiko said.
"I wanted to. Mr. President, I knew that you were a man of exquisite taste. And that's why I know you're gonna love this mover!" Varrick said.
"Varrick, I know what you're doing, and I doubt your propaganda is going to change my mind about going to war with the Northern Water Tribe." said Raiko.
"Oh, I think you'll be surprised how persuasive I can be."
Inside the arena, where the playing area has been fitted with speakers and a giant screen. On an open booth where President Raiko was seated. On the left of the booth to show two more VIP booths; Bolin, Ginger, and Asami occupy the left booth, and Naga and Pabu were in the right one.
The animals' booth, where a waiter serves them food. On the playing area where Varrick was standing in the darkened arena, with a spotlight shining on him.
"Thank you all for coming for the finale of 'Nuktuk: Hero of the South'! You know, when I first started this project there were a lot of naysayers out there. 'You can't make pictures move' they said. 'You can't take some knucklehead earthbender and make him a star' they said." Varrick said which made the crowd laugh.
"'You can't teach a polar bear dog to speak' they said. Well, they're wrong! Thanks to the magic of the movers, our furry friends have found their voices, and you'll be shocked to hear what they have to say. They speak of the injustice that is happening in the Southern Water Tribe right now." He stares at Raiko's booth.
"My hope, is that their words, and this epic mover, will inspire a real-life hero to rise up, and help." Varrick said before Raiko glances uneasily.
"Thank you again, enjoy the show!" The screen lights up, revealing Nuktuk held by a bird on the shoulders.
"When last we left our hero, he was captured by the Evil Unalaq's dastardly pet bird. Amazingly, with the power of his whistling, Nuktuk escaped." A whistling Nuktuk, followed by the far shot where the bird drops the hero. "And decided to seek out council."
A seal lion growling, with Nuktuk kneeling in front before a fish was thrown to the animal.
"Thank you, wise sage. I will travel to Republic City and seek help." said Nuktuk.
At Republic City, at the President's office, where Nuktuk enters the room to find an actor, as President Raiko was working with chemicals.
"Have a seat, I'm just working on a cure for the common cold. No longer will my citizens suffer from the sniffles." he said.
"Mr. President, there's something more important than the sniffles right now. I need your help to stop the Evil Unalaq." Nuktuk said.
"Did you say 'help'? If there is one thing I love doing, it's helping people."
"Hmm. The seal lion seemed a bit far fetched, but the portrayal of this president is right on the money." Raiko said.
Meanwhile, at the ocean, where the flying bison flies the way back to Republic City.
"Tenzin, I'm telling you, the President won't help us." Korra said.
"We have to convince him. The fleet is what we need to stop Unalaq." Bumi said.
"I sure hope he's changed his mind." Korra said. "Harmonic Convergence is coming within a day."
"We have enough time to prepare for this." Tenzin said.
Back to the screen; Nuktuk was chained to the wall while three automatons approach him.
"Northern Water Tribe automatons! No!" he shouts.
"Bee bow bop, Nuktuk cannot stop Unalaq, must destroy Nuktuk."
Roh-Tan stops between Nuktuk and the automatons and growls at the machines, forcing them to retreat. Juji joins in the growling, before freeing Nuktuk by firing laser beams from his eyes.
Nuktuk starts rubbing his wrists. "Haha! Arhg!" He retreats from an approaching automaton before throwing water at the machines, causing the machines to short circuit. "Looks like you forgot that water, and automatons, don't mix."
"Bee bow bop, oh no, circuits no working." The automatons breaks down.
"Hahaho!" He high-fives Roh-Tan. "We did it! But wait, where's Juji?" A belly-up Juji who was coughing, while a spotlight shines over him.
"Nuk-no!"
Nuktuk picks up Juji. "You can't die, Juji! Not on my watch!"
"It's okay, Nuktuk. At least... I got to be your friend." Juji said. Before he licks Nuktuk's fingers before dying. Roh-Tan cries.
"Juji!" Nuktuk shouts in sadness.
"Now's your chance." Asami whispered before Bolin nodded and walked out.
Bolin walked to Mako and Varrick who was armoured.
"Why are you wearing armour?" Bolin asked.
"It's my first time to battle an evil warlock." Varrick said.
"Now, are we ready for this?" Mako determined.
"Yeah. let's get Unalaq's twin." Bolin said.
At Raiko's booth where the President was watching the mover.
"You're too late, Nuktuk." Evil Unalaq shows Nuktuk his doomsday device. "Soon, my doomsday device will shoot this block of ice into the Earth's core, freezing the entire planet, and I will be ruler of Ice Earth!" He laughs diabolically.
"I don't think so." said Nuktuk.
"Huh, this actor playing my brother is so talented. Where am I in there?" Raiko asked.
Raiko was pulled backward by an unseen figure who have his hands clasped over Raiko's mouth in order to restrain them from making a sound. Revealing Mako, Bolin and Varrick, who were now busy tying up the already gagged President.
Raiko suddenly broke free from the ropes with such strengths.
"What is the meaning of this?!" he demanded.
"You're under arrest, Sarlaq." Mako said.
"Are you threatening me, Mako Wang?" Raiko glared bitterly.
"The court will decide your fate." Varrick said.
"I AM the court." Raiko snapped.
"Not yet you are, warlock." Bolin said.
"It's treason then." Raiko said evilly.
The President's guards barged from the door and grabbed Bolin and Varrick. Raiko jumped from the booth and climbed up to escape, and Mako followed him.
Bolin broke free and uses his momentum to dislodge a slab of rock from the wall behind him and hurls it at the guards.
As the waterbender was hit square in the chest and thrown out of the booth, into the pool. The man plunges into the water, screaming.
The people gasp and turn toward the direction of the noise. Lin, who also turns around with suspicion.
"Let's get him!" Bolin shouted before he and Varrick climbed up the booth after Raiko.
The two reunited with Mako and chased after Raiko. Then they saw a flying Zhu Li with mechanical wings speed to Raiko, but he ducked.
"Do the thing, Zhu Li" Varrick cheered.
Zhu Li threw paint bombs at Raiko, and she threw a pie at his face.
Beifong was confused with what was going on. "What has gotten into these three that made them attack the President?"
Raiko rubs the pie off his face. "I order you to stop this ridiculous charade, you little…"
Bolin used his earthbending to raise the rock from the ground and Raiko was on it. Then he falls down to the pool.
"We've got him now." Mako said.
The growing Raiko climbed up to the arena in anger. The flying Zhu Li sprayed water at the President. Mako, Bolin and Varrick landed on the arena.
"Looks like there's nowhere to go, warlock." Mako said.
"Yeah, take this!" Bolin threw a disk at Raiko's head.
"Why, you…"
Raiko tried to zap Bolin, but he dodged the magic blast. Mako used firebending to attack the warlock in his Raiko form, but he dodged it with his magic.
Shiro Shinobi sees the fight. "This is unbelievable! Bolin, his brother and Varrick are bending three full stacks of earth disks at once, which would normally be illegal, but then again, their fighting the President who has magic, so all rules are out the window!"
Varrick charged at Raiko, the President tried zapping him, but his armour was magic-proof. Then Varrick punched Raiko in the face.
Yhe soldier attempts to attack Varrick, but Bolin retaliates in time and slams a disc to his stomach, tossing him into the pool, while Unalaq was defeated.
"It's a knockout!" Shiro Shinobi said enthusiastically.
The audience, Sheng and Asami, who cheered at Mako, Bolin and Varrick. Bolin turns and waves back at the audience with Nuktuk.
Chapter thirty-four will be coming.
