The pricinct is quiet. The snow is flurrying and blowing around outside. The night is cold and crisp. I'm sitting at my desk rifling through paperwork that I've been avoiding for the last few weeks.

I picked up this holiday shift, because I really have nowhere to go for the holidays and the holiday pay is pretty nice. Double the money plus another couple yuan an hour for working overnights.

My eyes are seeing double by the time I reach the middle of my stack of reports. It's not that I slack at my job, I'm excellent at what I do in the field, but this part is tedious. I'm a cop, not a novelist. I roll my eyes, grumbling internally.

That's what this shift is for, so I can catch up on all my delinquent reports. I'm getting too tired though staring at these papers. I stand up stretching my arms to the sky. The lighting is dim, because I'm the only one at my desk.

A few guys got a call a little bit ago to head out for a possible B&E. They beat me to it. I almost burned their eyebrows off. I have a little temper, but I have it under control... for the most part.

I look around and see no one in sight. I feel less powerful at night, but my inner flame always burns strong within my chi. Agni flows through my veins. I take a deep inhale through my core and exhale slowly. My stomach hurts a little, but I'm not sure why.

I was always worried about joining the force that's meant mainly for metalbenders, but I knew I had what it takes. I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty and I love protecting the citizens of this city. Something inside me has always wanted to look out for the little guy. I may also like roughing up the criminals a bit, but I swear that's not the main reason.

What can I say? I grew up with some of the most prestigious firebenders this world has ever seen. My father wanted me to grow up knowing my roots and living at my full potential. I also just simply fell in love with it.

Princess Azula is infamous, and she's my hero. I mean c'mon! Her fire was blue! I've tried so hard to get the heat of my flame that color, but it takes serious discipline. I could only dream of reaching that height in my bending, but I continue to try all the time.

You'd think with how strong of a bender I am that I'd be an alpha, but I was born an omega. They're rare around the city. Most of them are protected closely, but I refuse to be one of those. I'm not hell bent on mating and having pups, at least not right now. My career and bending are so important to me. I couldn't imagine seeing myself taking on all that responsibility.

It's not too bad being an omega. You draw a lot of attention, especially around the time when you go into heat. I try to keep my status on the down low, though. Getting attention for being an omega is the last thing I want. I use this spray my dad gave me a long time ago around the time I started going into my heats. It helps a lot. Most people at the station think I'm a beta. Ugh... what I would give to be an alpha.

Don't get me wrong, I'm completely attracted to alphas and wouldn't mind snagging my own one day. I just would rather deal with the occasional boner than those agonizing heats. They bring me to my baser instincts and I hate feeling like anyone has control over me or my desires.

A loud clang comes from the other side of the precinct, where the Chief and her Captains' offices are. I turn looking in that direction and see a shadow coming from the Chief's office. Her light is on inside.

I'd go say hi, but she's pretty intimidating. One of my first days as a recruit I passed out from dehydration, and she used me as an example of what not to do to my whole class. I've worked my ass off since that day to prove myself to her. She pokes and takes jabs at me whenever she can. Most of the time I just laugh it off, but I'm not sure if it's coming from a good or bad place. You never really know with her.

Another sound came from her office. It sounded like a grunt this time. I start to get worried. What could it be? She's in her office. Did she stub her toe? No, she has metal boots. Dumb. My curiosity is getting the better of me and I start to inch my way over to her office. "Chief! Are you alright in th..."

She cuts me off, "Get back to work!"

Oooookay. That's not too weird, but I hope she's okay. "Roger, Chief." I walk back over to my desk, but I definitely do not want to sit back down. I walk out towards the entrance and open the door. A hefty breeze makes its way past me and push the door close with a little extra strength. Man, that wind is howling. I hope those officers will be alright.

I hear another pained grunt come from the Chief's office. She isn't seeing anyone that I'm aware of. It's probably why she's still here. No family to go home to, like me. Maybe it wouldn't hurt if I just take a peek inside.

I head back towards the offices and don't seem to hear anything else. I watch her shadow plop straight down into her desk chair. It turns and I figure now is my chance to check. I peek around the corner and she's leaning back against her chair.

The Chief is an alpha. I always thought she had an amazing scent, but I never saw myself as someone lucky enough to catch the Chief's attention. She's a master earth and metalbending badass. She's one generation removed from the creator of metalbending, and she's a little older than me. Okay, maybe a lot older than me. I never thought age mattered much anyways.

I hear the woman in front of me take a deep inhale. Maybe she's stressed. It is a rough time of year for some people to be alone. Maybe I really should check on her. My heart is pounding in my chest for some reason. Get a hold of yourself! It's just the Chief. She's human too. Just a really angry, sometimes scary, strong human. I can do this. I'm not scared. Just do it!

I cough to let her know I'm here. I see her body stiffen in her seat. That was weird. "Hey, Chief." I look around awkwardly leaning against the doorframe. "You're working the night shift?" I can't come right out and ask her if she's okay. The Chief doesn't work like that. She'd bite my head off in an instant and tell me swallow my feelings.

Her chair turns slowly and she leans her elbows on her desk, also slowly. "What are you doing, officer?"

I take a deep, subtle breath and something catches my attention. The aroma in my nose is coming from her. It's intoxicating. Why am I getting such a strong scent from her? I keep my reaction to it very minimal, but knowing her she probably noticed already. "Just making conversation. I heard you from out there, Chief. Just wanted to shoot the shit."

Her eyes narrow at me like she's measuring me up, or trying to decide if I've lost my marbles. Nobody tries to talk to the Chief. I start to sweat under her glare and I'm not sure why, but my stomach starts hurting again. The woman in front of me groans and something stirs inside me.

My eyes widen for a split second before I catch my reaction. I don't think she noticed, but I definitely know why I'm burning up, why she smells so good and why my stomach is hurting. My heat. I had that scheduled out in advance. There's no way this is happening right now! Ugh!

"Shooting the shit, huh? Sure it's not something else?" She clears her throat adjusting in her seat. Her green eyes are staring right at me.

She thinks I came over here on purpose. I need to walk away, before this gets awkward. If it's not already! I laugh slyly. If there's one thing I can do it's lie my ass off. "No, really. I'm just not one for paperwork. But, if I'm bothering you I can leave." I point back towards the front of the station.

The Chief raises her hand. "I feel the exact same. Although, it's because my mother made me transcribe her reports in my spare time at work." She rolls her eyes.

Her scent is driving me crazy. Chief is an alpha and my mind is wandering to some unclean thoughts. "Tell me about it." I laugh. "Well hey Chief, I'm gonna get out of your hair. I think I'm going to go down to the training arena if you need me. Is that okay?"

"Are the other two monkeys still out on mission?" She cocks her head to the side and her hands are in the same spot on her desk.

"Roger, Chief. Want me to radio them and get an ETA?"

She raises her hand again. "Don't worry about it. If I need to, I'll check on them myself. Go ahead. I'll hold down the fort." Her face is serious and her brow is furrowed.

"Thanks, Chief. I just need to get some of this energy out. Maybe some firebending will do me some good." I light a small flame briefly in my hand and it catches her eye.

"Just don't burn the place down. Got it?" She glares at me with intensity. My eyes wander down over her metal chest plate and that's when I realized that I need to get out of here.

"Yes, Chief." I catch a whimper in my throat. I hate this! She's making me lose control of myself. All I can think about is how I want her to bend me over this desk an... Stop! I smile and walk away. I hear the Chief exhale loudly as I make my way quickly to the basement.

I get there and scream. Fire shoots out of my mouth and I release it from my hands. Oh, spirits! That felt so good. My chi feels like it's supercharged right now. I need to release this, but I don't know how to besides running upstairs to Lin... Ugh just taze me with lightning already!

I wave my arms in front of my body and feel the supercharge inside me become organized. I pull my poles that are in me apart and charge up my hands. I make eye contact with one of the conducting rods that's erect on the far end of the arena. It's not a large area, but it's a good distance away. I have to focus and be precise in order to hit the rod. I release my chi and the bolt extends out from my finger tips.

I make direct contact with the conductor. A surge of electricity goes through the lights as the stream leaves my body and enters the apparatus. I feel as though I can catch my breath after it's left me. I pant for a few moments and then center myself.

I meditate for another few moments as I focus on my chi and breath with my diaphragm. My stomach slowly inflates with air and slowly releases it. My body temperature is still out of control and my stomach hurts, but I'm able to take back control of my body. I have control.

I step out to the side and begin my katas. I start with the basics. Fire releasing from deep within my chi and directed outwards from my hands and feet. I flip and send flames flying in an arch. My hands control the element around and within me. I sweep my foot low to the ground and bright red flames spew out around me. I try to stay towards the middle where most of the dirt is. I don't want to burn anything up. My flames are unusually hot, but I'm not at all concerned about losing control of them.

"Nice form" The voice comes from behind me at the entrance of the arena. I'm breathing heavily as I try to regain myself. Her scent. I can tell it's her before I even see her.

I turn slowly trying to get my breath under control. "Thanks, Chief." I say it in between pants.

"The monkeys returned." She looks over at me with her arms crossed. "Wanna spar?"

She catches me totally off guard. I almost choke on my own spit, but spare myself the embarrassment. "Hell, yeah." I smile maybe a little too brightly at the prospect.

She steps down into the arena. She shucks away her metal boots and digs her feet into the dirt of the arena. "Alright, no lightning." She stares at me with a serious glare.

"Okay, then no metalbending." I fold my arms defiantly. Her damn scent is catching in my nose again. I need to stop before my legs soak with arousal.

"Fair." She says short and pointedly. She gives me a smirk and it totally throws me off. She notices and stomps her foot into the ground. She shoots up a pillar right under my feet. I fly into the air and land into a power stance. My leg extended and hand planted down. I smirk. I throw a thick flame at her side and she dodges it easily. It's the Chief. I don't have to go easy on her.

She lands to the ground and launches boulders up in the air in the process. She side kicks them my way. I backbend and flip out of the way of the multiple projectiles. Then sweep my foot out and launch the flame towards her legs. She jumps and I shoot fireballs with my fists, one after another after another. She kicks up a barrier and blocks the flame.

She punches at the wall and sends a chunk of it at a time at me. I run and serpentine the attacks. She keeps her sights on me and uses precision with each attack. One grazes my arm, but I move through it. I wave my arms a few times and create a cylinder of fire directed right towards her.

She launches herself into the air and barely escapes my attack. If she would've fallen faster she may have burned her feet. The fight continues to excite me and my movements feel crisp.

She lands in front of me and I don't let up. I send a front-flip-flame wheel towards her and she dodges it to the side. She rises two pillars and shoots them both directly at me. They cross into an 'X' leaving me hardly any room to escape it. She makes contact with my body and it throws me backwards.

I regain my stance and I run at her shooting flame after flame. She puts up a block to dodge them. She slides on a ramp of earth out from behind the wall and I narrowly dodge her. I launch myself to the side, land, and pivot towards her last location. I release a flame and she isn't there. I center myself and place my hands up for a surprise attack.

The earth under my feet rotates and kicks one of my legs right out from under me. I fall to my back on the ground and she lands over top of me. One knee is up and the other is down at my side. She has a fist reared back and a big rock hovering over my head.

I'm panting as I allow my body to catch its' breath. I put my hands up and smile at her. "If only I had my lightning." Dammit!

Chief tries not to show how hard she just worked as she keeps her breath under control. "Yeah, lightning." She rolls her eyes and tosses the earth chunk under her will off to the side. It makes a loud cracking noise as it broke apart.

She goes to stand and I let out the most annoying, feminine, little whimper I've ever made. I want to shank myself with a fire dagger. My heart sinks into my stomach and I feel like she could sink me into the dirt and I will be okay with that. I'll die of embarrassment.

I hold my breath as all these thoughts go through my mind in these short moments. She turns her head back towards me slowly. Her eyes are like daggers piercing into my soul. She bends down, her hands are on both sides of my head. She's on all fours hovering above me, and we're not touching.

I'm a panting mess underneath her. Her eyes shift down my chest and she swallows. Her eyes are burning my skin. I feel like the fire is escaping my gut and is seeping out of my pores. I bite my lip, because it's the only think I feel like I could possibly do.

Her eyes dart up to my mouth and my breath catches again. How is she doing this to me? I can feel a rush of arousal between my legs again and she takes a deep inhale through her nose. She grunts in what looks like pain. I slowly extend my hand down sliding over her metal armor. I get to her stomach and she grunts again. She startles me, but I don't let it show.

Anyone knows that when you're around an aroused alpha, that you have to be careful. You can set off an alpha with any quick movements and I'm sure the Chief is no exception to the rule. She's one of the toughest women I've ever met and I imagine she knows just how to take control.

I continue sliding my hand down her stomach covered in her metal armor and I'm a mere few centimeters from the join of her legs when...

"Chief! You down there?"

She made what sounded like a pained noise. "What!?" Her voice sounds angrier than I've ever heard it. The idiot on the other end of this conversation does not know what they just walked into. The metalbender is almost snarling above me.

"Uh... we were just letting you know that we're ready to debrief you on the case." The voice was worried and clearly understood her previous intonation.

"I'll be there shortly!" Her voice still has a sharpness to it.

She's still over me, and all I want to do is pull her into me. She's clenching and unclenching her jaw. The restraint she's using right now is incredible. I've never seen an alpha have so much control over her instincts, especially on the first day of an omega's heat. Of course she would be able to no matter how badly I could tell she wanted to disobey herself.

Her face looks pained as she looks down at me. Her green eyes look into my amber ones. I so badly want to tempt her, but I know she can't stay and it wouldn't be the best place to handle this. Besides, what if she isn't into me and she's fighting the hormones of my heat? I don't want to drag her into something she doesn't want.

Chief Beifong growls deep in her throat and I can feel the reverberation through the ground. I look down and see the metal plate against her waist is extended out a bit from her frame. My poor alpha. her cock is straining against her metal armor. "You're not helping." She growls again.

My eyes shoot up, "yes, Chief." My hands come back up beside my shoulders.

She grunts, "stop talking." She pauses. "I need to get up."

I nod my head. I am trying so hard to not make another sound like the one that put us in this situation in the first place. My heat was just barely starting. Thankfully, it hasn't gotten in full swing yet, or there's no way I would let her leave my sight.

The metalbender starts to move her arms, she shifts her weight and gets back to her knees. She's straddling my lap and her bulge is pressing lightly on me. I am fighting so hard not to make a noise. My eyes roll into the back of my head and I bite my lip hard. She doesn't move again and I open my eyes. She's starring daggers at me again. "Sorry Chief." I pause to swallow. "You have to rip it off like a bandaid."

She shakes her head and rises from my lap. She walks off towards the stair case. She readjusts herself as she walks away. My throat clenches. It feels like I can barely breathe. I continue to lay there, on fire. It feels like my element is consuming me. I felt like there was only one release that might be able to help.

I stand and plant my feet. I charge my chi by splitting my poles, my hands waving back and forth. I try my hardest to concentrate. The electricity inside me charges completely and I finally release. The lightning flows through me and I aim right at the conducting rod. The lights flicker again and I hear footsteps barreling down the steps.

The lightning continues to flow through me and I finally release it. My breath flows out in a shudder and I drop to my knees. I try to catch my breath once again. I catch the scent of another alpha. My eyes shoot open. I forgot that I started my heat and that other alphas will be around.

I turn around slowly and see one of my partners panting furiously. "You're an omega?!"

Shit! "Yeah..." I pause. "Let me get by you and you won't do anything we'll both regret."

He shakes his head roughly. "Okay, hurry." He turns and bends the earth from the arena. I make my escape and run upstairs. I panic. I look around and no one else is in sight. I let out a breath, but I can still hear the officer down stairs.

I can smell the Chief's scent and it's pulling me towards her office. She's my only shot I have to tell her. I knock a few raps on her office door. I hope I don't piss her off. I hear grunting from behind the door. "Chief? I'm sorry to bother you, but... Tao... caught my scent. I um... don't know how much longer..." The door opens. Chief is behind it. Her musk is much stronger in her office. My eyes go wide.

"I'll take you home." My eyes must show my relief, because she relaxes her posture some.

"Thank you, Chief." I refrain from sliding my fingertips over her arms.
