I do not own Star Wars The Clone Wars or Legend of Korra.

This time was different. When Korra fought against Amon and drove him off, she had a sense of accomplishment. Sure she had lost her bending, but Aang had helped her get it back. Plus she had been able to give others back their bending, and learn air bending.

Then when she had fought Vaatu at Harmonic Convergence, she had lost connection with her past lives. It had stung, knowing she had lost so much knowledge that could never be recovered, but she had beaten Vaatu. not only that, but she had regained connection with Raava.

This time wasn't like that. Sure they had defeated the Red Lotus, but they had left their mark just like Amon and Vaatu had. This mark was much more painful than those ones.

Korra sat in her wheelchair looking out at the sunset on Air Bender's Island. She knew she should try to walk a bit, but she didn't have any motivation. She felt broken, probably looked it as well. Her friends certainly gave off that impression whenever they saw her.

Korra gave a sigh as she wheeled herself out of the room. She might as well do something before the day was done. As she traveled around, she didn't come across anyone. She guessed Tenzin was probably busy getting the new air benders settled in, or spending time with the new air bending master, Jinora. Bolin was probably out getting food or lounging around with Pabo. Maybe she could find Mako or Asami to talk with.

As she got outside of the house, she could make out some people in the gazebo overlooking the harbor. She wheeled closer to see who it was. A small smile reached her face as she realized it was Mako and Asami. She raised her hand to call out to them, but stopped herself. She watched as they leaned into each other, ignoring the outside world in favor of each other's company. Korra dropped her hand to her wheel, spinning around and heading back inside the house.

She parked herself in front of the window once more. The gazebo was out of sight from her vantage point. The courtyard below was muffled by the plants lining the window. Then the padding in the walls blocked out other sounds from the house. Korra was insulated in a bubble of silence, all alone.

"What's the point of being here anyway." Korra mumbled as she stared at the almost set sun, willing the day to finally end.

After a few days of secluding herself in her room, Tenzin decided it might be best for Korra to continue to recover at home with her parents. So they all made the trip to the Southern Water Tribe, escorting Korra home. Korra stayed quiet and close to Naga, refusing to leave the polar bear-dog's side. She was a bit grateful for the cold weather. It gave her an excuse to huddle under her hood.

She spent most of her days either being healed by Katara or laying in her bed reading letters from her friends. Korra didn't care much for human interactions at the moment. The loneliness was bitter, but it was better than when she was on the island, or seeing people pity her.

Her recovery was slow, painfully slow. It took weeks for her to feel confident on her feet again. A few more to manage a single step, but she was determined to walk. She had to walk again. What use was an Avatar that couldn't walk?

Korra finally managed a few steps after a month of gritting her teeth and bearing through the pain. She was on her feet again, and slowly getting back to training. She knew it would be a while before she was back at where she was before, but she could get there again. She just had to put the work in.

Korra let out a sigh as she tried to meditate. She had been trying to travel to the spirit world ever since she had began training again, but it was going about as well as it had the first time. Then again, Korra wasn't that great with spiritual things. Her trouble learning air bending was a testament to that. Plus, ever since Harmonic Convergence, she had been unable to contact any of her past lives through their memories. She even had trouble feeling Raava, even though she knew the spirit was still a part of her.

She got up from her spot at a cliff base and stretched. Naga raised her head and looked over with a curious gaze. "It's alright girl, just need a break." Korra looked towards the horizon. She had a good four or five hours before the sun set.

Korra looked back at Naga, contemplating going back. She certainly wasn't going to get any further with meditating. "What do you say girl? Shall we head...back..." Korra paused as something caught her attention in the ice cliff beside the polar bear dog. This ice looked thin, and it looked like there was a light inside it.

Korra laid her hand on the ice, feeling how thin it was. It was maybe a foot thick, she could easily find weak points to shatter the ice. The light suddenly died out, leaving an all too familiar pattern behind. "Hey!" Korra shouted as she pushed open the wire thin cracks, shattering an opening into the cliff. "Raava!"

Korra looked over at Naga as she looked into the cavern. "Stay here." She ordered as she climbed in through the hole. She took off running, hoping to find the spirit at last.

The path was rather spacious and had a good layer of snow for footing. She could see the faint light just at the end of the path, but when she reached it the light was now at the end of the new path. Korra growled as she ran after the light, winding her way further into the ice cave.

It wasn't until she found herself in a large open space that the light stopped moving. It was now shining from a large ball in the center of the room. The light let Korra see the sheer drop and bottomless pit that made up the entire room. Korra had a determined frown on her face as she reached out to the walls, pulling a path into place for her to cross.

Korra looked around her as she crossed her made path. There was something in the air of this place, it felt different than anything she had ever felt before. As she stepped down in front of the glowing ball, the light all but went out. "Spirits, what's up with this thing?" Korra rubbed her hands together as she conjured some fire. She placed her heated hands against the ball, melting a small portion of it. She kept going until she finally reached the light. Korra frowned as she pulled a pure white crystal out. "What is this?"

The crystal was jagged and about the size of her thumb. It still gave off a small glow, but nothing compared to what had led her to it. What confused her the most was what the crystal felt like. The odd sensation that the room had was coming from this crystal. It felt like a spirit, but solid like earth at the same time. It confused her.

Korra frowned as she thought of what to do. Crystal was a sub-category of earth. Maybe she could try bending it and see what happened? Korra tossed the crystal up and grabbed onto it with her earth bending. She had done a little bit of crystal bending before, but this felt different. The crystal began to slip from her grasps.

She tried entering the Avatar state, stopping when an intense pain ran through her body. She fell to her knees, hugging her pained body as she regretted trying that. A loud crack made her freeze, hoping it wasn't anywhere near her. The last thing she needed was to get hurt again and set her recovery back again.

The platform she was on dropped an inch, along with Korra's stomach. "Nonononononononononononono!" Korra panicked as she felt herself sliding. She tried to get a hand hold but the ice under the snow was smooth as glass. She reached out with her water bending, but the ice was brittle and just broke under her panicked grip.

As her her mind raced to find a solution, she slid over the edge of the platform. She felt nothing under her and could see nothing as she fell down into the dark depths of the pit. All she could hear was the air rushing around her. Korra pulled the air around her, hoping to damped whatever landing she was going to have to make. Seconds ticked by as Korra waited for the impact.

It shocked her when she splashed into a lake. She pushed the water away from her, hoping the air would float her up to the surface. She guessed she had surfaced when the water became easier to move. She let out a breath, freezing a patch of water she could support herself on.

"Well this sucks." Korra muttered as she sat down on her known patch of ice. She could hear water around her, sloshing around from her fall. She started as something fell onto her head. "What the-" Korra looked down at the faintly glowing crystal that was now in her lap. "At least I have a bit of light." Korra looked at the crystal again, wondering just what she had gotten herself into.

Korra looked around the vast darkness around her, wondering how large this cave could possibly be. She looked back at the crystal in her hand wondering what she could do.

A glow beneath the water drew her attention. As she peered over the side, she came face to face with herself, but her reflection was clearly in the Avatar state. "What the-" Korra muttered before her reflection attacked, sending her back into the water.

Korra got her bearings again and hovered over the water, waiting for herself to attack again. As she waited in the darkness, nothing happened. Hesitantly, Korra looked back into the water, but saw no sign of light.

In a hesitant move, she launched a wave of fire around her, lighting up the water filled cavern. In that brief moment, she knew she was alone. She had also managed to spot an exit. Korra let out a long and deep breath, freezing as much of the lake as she could. She lowered herself onto the frozen lake, ready to move on.

Korra held a small ball of fire in her hand to light her way towards the only tunnel in the room. Once she reached the tunnel, she reached out and placed a gloved hand onto the wall of the tunnel. No point in wasting her energy when she could just trust her other senses. As she began to slowly walk down the tunnel, she hoped this would lead her out.

The further she walked down the tunnel, the more confident she became. The air was getting warmer and she could start to make out the walls of the tunnel. After almost half an hour of walking, the tunnel began to be lit by small luminescent plants growing from patches of earth poking out from under the snow. Korra enjoyed the warmer air and patches of light more than the freezing lake from before.

As she rounded a corner, she came across a large cavern. This one was much different than the previous ones. This one was humid and warm. There were plants everywhere and a large waterfall. "Wow." Korra stared in amazement at her discovery.

The entire cavern was illuminated by a large crystal imbedded in the ceiling. "I guess that's where this came from." Korra looked at the piece of crystal she had. "But how did it get up there." She looked behind her at the tunnel she had just come from. This cave was certainly more of a mystery than she had expected. "Maybe I should have gone home."

Figuring it was best to keep moving forward, Korra made her way down to the floor of the lush cavern. There were many plants she was unfamiliar with, but they also felt familiar. "What is this place?" Korra asked as she examined the oasis she had found.

She finally stopped when she found herself directly under the large crystal. Korra looked up at it, wondering where the light was coming from. She looked around at the clearing, wondering why there were no plants growing directly under the only source of light. She would have thought this spot would have been the most overgrown, but it was bare. It was just dirt beneath her boots.

"Weird." Korra muttered as she looked back up at the crystal. "If there is light on the other side of that crystal, then it's my best shot out." She prepared herself to try and bend the crystal. She would try not to completely destroy this place, but right now she needed to get out. Who knows how else she could?

As she prepared to bend the crystal above her, a rock flew at her from the side. Korra spun out of the way and tensed, ready to fight. Her eyes widened as her avatar double walked out form the nearby bush. The Avatar threw a slice of wind at her, knocking her back. Korra picked herself up and swung a few stones, missing her by feet. Korra growled as she launched at her with fire bending.

They fought for what Korra thought was at least half an hour. And while she was huffing and trying to catch her breath, her double was calm and unfazed. "I don't know what you are, but I won't lose!" Korra growled as she pushed herself back up to her feet.

She attacked once more, but her double used the chain wrapped around her arm to block her kick. Her double pushed her back with a burst of air. Korra slowly pushed hersle fonto all fours, not ready to give up just yet. As she tried to get up, Korra found herself stuck as her double trapped her limbs, keeping her in a kneeling position. Korra began to feel panic set in as her double walked up to her, slowly morphing into Amon. "No. No it can't be. You're not here!" Korra shouted as Amon stood in front of her. "This can't be real." Korra whispered as Amon reached for her.

She waited to feel his hands on her, to take her bending again. What she did not expect was a beam of light to crash down on her. She cried out as she fell onto her back, her restraints having vanished. Korra tried to sit herself up, but the light was keeping her down. How could light be so forceful?

Korra managed to roll onto her front and push herself back onto her knees, but almost instantly slipped and face planted into cold snow. Luckily though, the light had died down and nothing was pushing down on her. Even Amon had vanished.

Korra slowly pushed herself up to her knees, bracing herself on her arms. There was a harsh wind blowing, throwing snow into her face. She could make out the figure of something riding towards her. Her Father? "Help." Korra managed to speak before she fell back down into the snow, exhausted.

And so we begin. I know I changed quite a bit from how the last season started, but this is a fan fiction, it's not suppose to be 100% the same as the show.

So, any guesses as to where she is?
