Okay so, I'm going to try some things here. So first, I'm going to add in the intro/recap bit they have at the begining of every episode of Korra in future chapters. Second, I had this practically half written, and then I got deleted. Becuase of this, I'm going to give you the short version of what happend. Basically the first 7 or so minutes of "The Battle of Zaofu" happened exactly the same, Su attacked, got captured, Korra and the gang had a nice chat, and they decided to go have a nive chat with Kuvira on the battle field. Kuvira tried to convice them to hand over Zaofu, and they wouldn't. We rejoin them where Kuvira has baited them into a deal, one of you fight me, and I'll go in peace if you win. Korra felt it needed to be her, obviously kuvira was baiting her. Aang didn't want her to do it, but Korra insisted.

Sorry If it seems lazy not to retype that all out, but I don't have alot of time right now, so If I didn't do that you probably wouldn't get a chapter today.

Anways, I hope you enjoy.

"Just be careful," Aang said, putting a hand on Korra's shoulder, before walking away.

"Use whatever you need, all the elements, the avatar state, anything you want." Kuvira said, walking forward. "I know you're a little rusty."

"Enough talk." Korra said, and she shot two blast of fire quickly at Kuvira.

Kuvira easily dodged them and Korra's following bending. She then brought out two metal bending attacks, hitting Korra twice and sending her to the ground. Aang grimaced. Kuvira's army cheered.

Kuvira laughed. "Looks like the avatar is a little off her game." She taunted.

Korra got to her feet, panting.

"Don't let her frustrate you Korra!" Aang said.

"She wants you to make a mistake!" Opal added.

Korra attacked again with earth bending and air bending, Kuvira dodged and hit her quickly in the feet, sending her to the ground again. Korra bounced back up again though and continued to attack, as Kuvira in turn dodged. Kuvira trapped her foot with earth bending and covered her eyes with a piece of metal bending again before hitting her in the chest with earth bending. Korra was thrown the ground again.

Aang couldn't take it, he couldn't watch Korra get beat up like this. Not after everything she'd gone through. He took a step forward, but Jinora held him back.

"You can't do anything right now Aang."

He grimaced, and stepped back.

Korra mustered her strength and got back on her feet, sending a ball of fire forwards.

The fight continued much the same, although Korra got much better at dodging Kuvira's metalbending, she still was getting hit.

"Come on avatar," Kuvira taunted as she had hit Korra down again. "Get up! Are you really so pathetic you can't fight me?! Come on, get up, show me what you've got."

"We have to help her." Opal said, stepping forward, Aang was about to follow her.

"No!" Korra said, looking up. "Stay back!" She said, getting to her feet. "I can handle this."

Korra sent a blast of fire forward, which Kuvira easily dodged and sent Korra to the ground.

"You have to go into the avatar state Korra." Su told her.

"Go into the avatar state." Aang said, although he wasn't sure if Korra could even hear him.

Korra did, just as Kuvira was about to land another attack, extending her hands as her eyes glowed. Air bending rushed forward. Aang felt himself pulled into the avatar state to, but let it pass through him like water through the stream. The only noticeable signs around him was a slight breeze.

Kuvira was thrown backwards. Korra attacked again, and landed another hit. Korra raised up on a cyclone of wind, several boulders floating around her and another large one above her head.

She was poised to strike.

And then Aang started seeing double, through Korra's eyes. Kuvira's head was...Korra's face.

A sharp ring rang that had no sound ran through both their heads and the light dissipated, sending Korra to the ground.

"I don't understand." Jinora said. "We got the poison out. What's wrong with her?"

"There's something else holding her back." Aang said softly.

"I knew you were weak." Kuvira said, attacking. She held Korra in the air with metalbending like a rag doll. And sent her crashing to the ground. Kuvira brought up a earth cage around Korra and walked forward. She was going to use her metal bending she was going to..

Aang stepped forward with the airbenders. They sent a colum of wind blasting into Kuvira, getting her away from Korra and to her army.

"You broke our agreement Aang!" Kuvira shouted. "Attack!"

"Jinora, call for help." Aang said, she nodded and turned to meditate, and then he went into the Avatar state himself.

Korra's eyes glowed only faintly, and since it was Aang channeling Raava, he hoped he could control it.

He raised his arms and wind spun around them in a huge cyclone. Opal added their airbending to it.

Kuvira's army was being hard pressed to keep their footing in the wind, butr they were making slow progress. It was slow, but they were still coming.

A couple minutes later Ikki and Meelo showed up with the two bison, just as the mech utis were starting to get through. "You can't handle all this meelo!" Aang's grandson shouted as Jinora and Opal lifted Korra safely onto Pepper. Aang held them off for another minute and then dropped the avatar state and jumped nimbly onto Appa.

The took up off into the sky.

"We have to save them!" Opal shouted, going as if to jump off.

"Opal we can't." Aang said, jumping bisons. "You know about jings right?"

"What?" She said. "Right there's positive, where to attack, or negative, where you retreat. What does that have to do with anything?"

"There's also neutral jing. Doing nothing. Living to fight another day."

Was that a good Bumi callback? I don't know. I hope you enjoyed that chapter, sorry the first bit got deleted. Also, to remind you during this episode Bolin and Varrick were busy escaping from Kuvira's army.

Have a nice day,
