Sorry for the wait guys, had a lot of family stuff to deal with since my aunt had passed away. Wanted to just ride the holidays out too. But I will also admit, I struggled hard with this, like, ugh, pain in my butt struggle. Writers block sucked, then, I knew what I wanted to write, but I was just too lazy to do it, having more fun with my other fic ideas. I am loving my Rhode PJO fic so much, Korra just honestly took a backseat compared to that one.

Combined with looking for a job, my priority right now, writing takes a back seat to real life too. You have to deal with that guys.

All I have to say is one or two more chapters and season 2 will be finally done. Gah, season 2, how you have pained me so over the year!

Oh, and Happy New Years. Yeah.


The youthful Avatar couldn't believe her eyes, Kazou, Naruto's enigma father, was right before her.

The man sat on a grabbed a slab of cake, "Ooh, spirit cake." He munched on it happily. He swallowed and let out a blissful sigh, "Yeah, these things rock! Heh, get it? Rock?" he winked at the group, getting groans at the lame pun, "Ya'll suck." He pouted, eating his spirit cake in comfort.

Iroh laughed jollily, "Please, have some spirit cake as well, Korra." He said, passing the pastry in front of the avatar, but her eyes were glued on the blond man before her. "Fun fact," the firebender winked and whispered, "You won't gain any weight." He smiled and patted his round belly, "Of course, you won't lose any either." He chuckled.

"No duh on that one, old man." Kazou said, pointing his cake at the older man.

"Bah, you young folk. Always rubbing it in."

"What can I say," Kazou shrugged, "I died while I was in my primly stud muffin self."

Iroh just shook his head in amusement.

"But you did die, right?" Korra asked with a cock of her head.

"Hm?" Kazou questioned with a mouthful of cake and swallowed once more, "Well, yeah. That sucked." He nodded, "Having a building come down on you just sucks. Then, here I am, puff!" he said and a wave of his hand, "Spirit World."

"Kazou may not look it…or act like it, but he was raised an Air Acolyte." Iroh informed.

Kazou groaned, throwing his head back on the chair head. Raising his hand in the air, finger pointed, he said, "Worst. Childhood. Ever." He gripped and looked back into Korra's eyes, "Seriously, I had to shave my head!" he grabbed his amazing blond locks, "That was a dark era for me. I mean, it was a crime to shave this much awesome!" he proclaimed, standing up at the declaration and plopped back down, "Oh, sure. They were like, 'Oh, Kazou, you are so enlightened. Being able to enter the spirit world.' Bleh, I was an earthbender, not a flower picker and bison washer." The man huffed, "So I ditched the Western Air temple and came to the bustling Republic City."

"And that's how you met Lin!" Korra pointed out, but scrunched her nose, "That must've stunk."

Kazou nodded sagely, "It did at first. But once you get to know her and get past all those quills she's got up, she's a big softy." He assured.

"Riiight." Korra nodded, disbelief clear on her childish face.

"Tea, Korra?" Iroh asked with a chuckled at the abridged version of Kazou's tale. He reached over for the teapot. Korra's eyes widened and pointed.

"My teapot!" she exclaimed.

"That's right." Iroh nodded, "it was yours long long ago." He said, lifting it up and holding it with utmost care, "When you were Avatar Wan, You used it to carry the light spirit, Raava, around until the two of you become one. It's my favorite thing I found here." He leaned down, making a cup for Korra, "You know, when you make tea with it, you can still taste a little light in every cup."

"Helps with heartburn too." Kazou added, getting a glare from Iroh. The earthbender shrugged, "What? It's true."

Korra gingerly took the cup with both hands and brought it to her lips, taking a sip, a peaceful smile adored her face as her heart warmed. Her blue eyes opened as she looked around, it was nice here.

Just so peaceful.

Korra continued to converse with Iroh and Kazou. Soon, Iroh was playing Pai Sho with a plant spirit.

Kazou was napping in a chair. After continuous pokes from Korra, she confirmed he was indeed asleep.

Iroh commented on how the spirits had created Pai Sho, though some weren't very good at it. He claimed Kazou was his best challenge, though played far too fast.

When Korra has how long he had been in the spirit world, he stated that he'd been there for years after leaving his physical body behind. Iroh glanced around, holding his cup up to his friends, stating he had met so many wonderful spirits.

The elderly man noticed the sad look on Korra's face and asked, "Korra, what's wrong?" he asked with a touch of concern.

The young Korra had small tears in her eyes, looking in his eyes, "I came here with my friend, but we lost her and now I'm all alone." She sulked.

Iroh leaned forward, "It's okay, Korra, you are not alone."

Anger filled Korra's eyes as her tiny fist clenched. Shaking her head, she said, "No, it's not okay!" she stood up on the Pai Sho table, "Jinora's gone and I need to find her! She's lost and we need to go home! I don't like the spirit world, I don't want to be here anymore!" she screamed out in a tantrum as the dark clouds in the distance started to roll in.

The spirits around them started to change, their soft and kind demeanor gone as darker and harsh features arose.

"What's that?!" Kazou startled awake at the scream and looked around him, "Oh boy." He grimaced.

Iroh quickly looked at Korra, a gentle hand landed on her shoulder, "Korra, please, stop. Look at what you are doing to everyone." He said as Korra opened her eyes and looked around.

A stunned expression came to her face, "I…I did that?" she meekly asked.

"In the spirit world," Iroh explained, "Your emotions become your reality. Especially for the Avatar."

"So try not to get you undies in a wad." Kazou helpfully added, "Because that'd suck for us."

"Kazou, much to his tasteless analogy-"

"Oi!"

"-is correct. You, as the Avatar, are the bridge between our worlds." Iroh continued, "You must try to stay positive."

"So stay calm, and sing a jaunty tune, kiddo." Kazou winked with a grin, "Works every time."

Korra sat back down as Iroh took his napkin and wiped her teary eyes. She let out a sniffle and turned to the spirits with her palms together and bowed in apology, "I'm sorry." She said.

In moments, the spirits returned to their kinder forms as the sun broke through the pitch black clouds that hovered above, banishing them back.

"There, you see?" Iroh asked with a smile.

Korra looked dumbfounded, "I can make the sun shine?"

"Even in the material world, you will find if you look for the light, you can often find it. But, if you look for the dark," Iroh frowned, "that is all you will ever see."

"Ominous." Kazou said in a chilling tone and got another glare. The blond just shrugged, "Hey, someone has to be the funny one. Lin failed at it. You're more the jolly type anyway."

Korra gained a happy look, "I'm looking for my friend, I want her here now." She said and closed her eyes to concentrate. After a few moments…nothing happened. Korra looked around with a frowned, "Why didn't she come out like the sun?" she asked.

"I'm afraid finding her won't be so easy." Iroh let out a dejected sigh.

"But," Korra's frown deepened, "What am I supposed to do?" she asked, feeling lost all over again.

"Sometimes, the best way to solve your problems, is to solve someone else's." Iroh said, turning to the young dragon bird chick, "This little fellow needs to go home as well." He held out his palm and the chick hopped on it, "Maybe if you help him find his friends," he helped the young hybrid before Korra, "You'll end up finding yours."

The dragon bird chick hopped into Korra's opened hands, she looked up at Iroh and said, "I'll take him home! …Where do I go?" she cocked her head to the left.

"There dragon bird nest is located there." Iroh pointed in the distance to the scary looking mountain, "At the top of Hai-Riyo Peak."

"Oh." Korra gulped as the dragon bird chick squawked.

Korra (dragon bird in hand), Iroh and Kazou made it to the road leading up to the Peak.

"This looks scary," Korra pointed out and looked to the older men, "Will you come with me?" she asked with childish fear.

Iroh knelt down, palms on her shoulders and said, "This is something you must do on your own."

"Besides," Kazou winked at her, a carefree smile on his face that reminded her so much of Naruto, "You got this kiddo, I believe in you."

"As do I," Iroh nodded in kind and turned serious, "The people coming to the spirit world lately have brought nothing but darkness and anger. So that is what you see now, but you have light and peace inside you. If you let it out, you can change the world around you." Korra gave a slow nod, "Besides," the old man smiled, "look at this little fellow." He pointed to the dragon bird chick, "this mountain is his home. When you first met him, you were frightened, but does he seem scary to you now?"

Korra pet under its beak softly, "No." she shook her head.

"Lots of stuff is scary, Korra." Kazou smiled, "Especially in the dark, but giving it some light? You can see so much different then you first thought."

Iroh gave Korra a hug, "It was so nice to meet you, Korra. Come visit us again. In this life, or the next."

"Yeah." Kazou nodded with a gleam in his eyes, "Tell that kid of mine to stay healthy and all the other parental junk." He waved off, "Oh, and not to piss off his mom too much."

Korra nodded and waved her goodbyes with a smile as she looked down at her little friend, "Okay, time for you to go home." She said and began her journey to the mountains peak.


Naruto had an epic pout of epic proportions on his face.

"This sucks." He surmised as he was at a tailor, his arm extended for a new suit for the coming Mover featuring Nuktuk.

"You could never stand still for these things." Asami pointed out as she came with him. After their little heart to heart, their friendship strengthened even further.

"Can't I just wear my metalbender uniform?" the blond whined but yelped, "Hey! Watch the needles!"

"Stop moving." The tailor deadpanned as he continued his work.

Asami laughed at his extended pout, "You're still on suspension." She stated, getting a groan from her earthbender friend.

"I know." A broody look appear on his face until he sighed.

Asami's green eyes turned sad, "Still no word?" she was referring to Korra.

Naruto said, "No…It's been a while now." He looked worried and with good reason.

"Naruto," Asami walked over and rested a hand on his shoulder, irritating the tailor, "This is Korra. You know how tough she is."

"I know, but here I am getting fancied up and she's out there doing something important." The blond earthbender sighed, "Just doesn't feel right."

Asami nodded, taking a step back, "I know, but you can't be by her side for everything." She stated and smiled beaming, "Besides, next we're getting a dress for me!" she chirped as Naruto went ash white.

Oh spirits, this was going to suck.


Korra awoke with a harsh gasp, shaken from her experience.

She had managed to bring the dragon bird to its nest and went to close the portal. But sadly she had ran into Unalaq and met Vaatu for the first time, well, her first time. Then she was forced to open the spirit portal. But worst of all, they had taken Jinora's spirit hostage.

The Avatar had just barely escaped.

"Korra!" Tenzin breathed easy, "You're back. What was it like?" he ran up to her, "Did you manage to close the portal? Was Jinora able to help you?"

"Tenzin, I'm…I'm sorry." Korra mustered out, turning to Jinora's spiritless body.

Tenzin followed her gaze. His daughter unmoving. "Where's Jinora? Why isn't she waking up?" he rushed over to her, holding her limp body tightly, "Korra, what happened to my little girl?" he said with horror as tears filled Korra's eyes at her failure.


Itachi, Tonraq, and Mangetsu were looking over the Southern Water Tribe city as the morning sun lulled before them, laminating the icy city.

"We can't wait any longer," Mangetsu commented, "We have to strike big."

"I wish we could wait for Korra, but I don't see that happening." Itachi sighed.

"Agreed." Tonraq frowned, and with a heavy heart, turned to the rebels. "It's time to take back what is ours!" he declared, "It is time to take back our city!" he threw his fist in the air, getting a rallying cry from the rebels.

"He was a former general, right?" Kisame scratched his chin.

"Yep." Yuki nodded.

"This is going to be fun," Ringo grinned wickedly, "No more baby footing around. We get some real blood staining our swords."

She got murmurs of agreement from the other swordsmen.

Now they didn't have to hold back.

Soon, the rebels and mercenaries descended down the mountainside, getting into the fight of their lives.


Naruto adjusted the black tie he was wearing with aggravation and brushed imaginary dust off his dark green jacket that held the Beifong Family symbol on the lapel. "I hate this." He told Asami as they rode in a Sato mobile to the Pro-Bending Area where they'd be premiering the Mover finale of Nuktuk, Hero of the South.

"Just try to bear it, Naruto. This is a big day for Bolin." Asami scolded with a wag of her finger. She wearing a gorgeous sleeveless red dress that hugged her curves and flowed to her ankles.

Naruto sighed as he leaned against the window, peering out it, "Huh, I see Reiko and his wife, chatting with Varrick. Oh!" he smiled, "There's Bolin," he then knitted his brow, "With, uh, Ginger…I still think that's not her real name." he commented.

"They look nice?" Asami asked, looking through the window with him.

"I guess so. You know that's not my thing."

"Anything that's fancy isn't your thing."

Naruto huffed childishly, "I get that from a strict cop mother."

Asami rolled her eyes playfully, "Of course you do." She nodded mockingly.

Naruto gave a grimace as their ride had rolled up to the red carpet, "Show time," he said as he opened the door, lights flashing from the multitude of cameras, making him blink a few times. He got out of the car and lent his hand to Asami, who took it daintily.

"Mr. Beifong, is there any news of the Avatar?"

"Are you and Miss Sato dating now? Is this why the Avatar is absent?"

"Miss Sato, your thoughts on your current situation with Sato Industries?"

"Your thoughts on your cop you were dating that is currently arrested."

Asami leaned in close to Naruto, whispering, "They're like lion vultures."

"I know." The blond whispered back, "No comment." The suspended officer said to the paparazzi as he and Asami shuffled into the building as they were peppered with more personal questions.

They moved up to the VIP area where Bolin had reserved seats for them with him.

The usher bowed his head as he opened the door for them, making Bolin, who was already seated next to Ginger, to turn and smile at them, "Hey guys!" he waved eagerly.

"Thanks for the seats, Bolin." Naruto said as they moved to sit next to him.

"Yeah," Asami nodded but frowned, "How was visiting Mako?" she asked, worry lacing her voice.

Bolin's smile faltered, but still held strong a second later, "It was, well, okay…I guess." He shrugged a bit, "I know things are looking bad, but I know he'll get through it." He nodded to himself.

"Ginger." Naruto greeted, the Mover Star just nodded, looking into her compact.

Classy.

Asami moved to sit next to Naruto at the far left and soon the lights dimmed. In the center of the Bending Arena, the spotlights shined down on Varrick, who was holding a mike.

"Thank you all for coming to the finale of Nuktuk, Hero of the South!" he started off, getting a round of applause. He leaned into the mike, "You know, when I first started this project, there were a lot of nay-sayers out there. You can't make pictures move, they said. You can't take some knucklehead earthbender and make him a star, they said. You can't teach a polar bear dog to speak, they said." Varrick paused, "Well, they're wrong!" he proclaimed, "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." Varrick closed his eyes, his tone far more serious than it ever has been to the Krew. "They speak of the injustices that are happening in the Southern Water Tribe right now. My hope is that their words, and this epic Mover, will inspire a real life hero to rise up and help." He said, looking right at President Raiko, who avoided his eyes as best he could.

Varrick soon smiled, "Thank you again, now," he pointed to the screen, "Enjoy the show!"

The lights turned off and the Mover soon started playing for all to see.

Naruto munched on some peanuts as he watched the Mover. Huh, it was pretty cool.

"I think this is your best Mover ever." Asami whispered to Bolin.

"Same, I've only seen a few, but it's cool." Naruto added.

"I just wish Mako was here to see it." Bolin said with a downcast look, getting strained smiles from his friends.

As the Mover progressed, Bolin was distracted and decided to get some air. Seeing, this, Asami and Naruto followed him out.

When they caught up to Bolin, he was leaning against a railing, looking out into the bay of Republic City.

"Are you okay?" Asami asked him, standing on one side, Naruto moving to his other, "Seems like this Mover is really getting to you. You do know Juji is not really dead."

"Of course I know." Bolin sighed, "Juji's fine. He comes back to life in the end when the dooms day device shifts the polarity of the earth. Oops, spoiler. Sorry." He looked down.

"Dude," Naruto frowned at him, he hated spoilers, "Also, that makes no sense."

"Right?" Bolin asked him, getting Asami to roll her eyes at the two before shifting the conversation back on track.

"Then what's really the matter?" she asked.

"I guess…I just miss my friends." Bolin stated with a frown, "Everything's gone so well for me, but ti feels empty with everyone not around. Korra's gone, Mako's in jail, Naruto's been doing his police stuff, and you've been…doing business lady stuff." He explained.

"I've been suspended." Naruto frowned.

"I know, but still, you were focused on your job the entire time back."

"A little." Naruto affirmed.

"Basically, the Krew's fallen apart." The black haired boy said.

Naruto gained a somber look, staring out into the bay as well, "You got a point." He admitted.

"Things have changed so much since we first met." Asami said, a frown on her lips. She looked to Bolin, "Why don't we go back inside and finish watching the Mover, all together." She smiled.

"You guys go ahead, I need another minute." Bolin sighed.

Naruto patted his shoulder, "We're here for you buddy." He said, getting a small smile from Bolin.

"Thanks." He nodded as the two headed back inside.

As he was alone, Bolin heard some banging nose and looked down to see a small boat by the docks, "That's weird." He narrowed his eyes.


Asami and Naruto were chatting.

"Think he'll be okay?" Asami asked the blond.

"Bolin's the kind of guy to bounce right back, just you wait and see." Naruto assured her, the other earthbender was that kind of guy.

As they continued to watch the Mover, all of a sudden someone flew out of the president's box and into the water below.

"Um, what was that?" Naruto asked, leaning over to see, suddenly three more people flew out of the box.

"I don't kno-Is that Bolin?" she asked with a startled gasp as the boy had leaped from the box and tore off his sleeves.

"Yeah." Naruto nodded as Bolin started fighting the group of what seemed to be waterbenders with the pro-bending earth disks.

"Naruto, help him." Asami hissed, worried for their friend.

"I don't think I need to." The blond smiled at the scene.

"What?!"

"Look." Naruto pointed out, mirth swimming in his eyes, Bolin just sent one of the water benders flying, "He's got this, plus," the crowd was roaring for Nuktuk, "The crowd is loving this." He laughed, he'd have thought Bolin would've been out of shape with his Mover career, but it seemed he was wrong.

Bolin had downed the last waterbender and raised an earth disk threateningly, "Who sent you?" the Mover star demanded.

The man cowered, covering his face, "It was Varrick!" he cried out, "Please don't hurt me Nuktuk!"

Bolin, stunned, turned to Varrick's booth to see him. The business man was looking a bit hot under the collar.

With his back turned, the hired man rushed at Bolin, but the earthbender saw this and sent the man flying into the drink as soon as he ran over an earth disk container.

The crowd was foaming at the mouth for Bolin, Naruto and Asami clapping for him with big smiles on their faces.

Bolin stared around, a smile forming as he raised his arms in the arm, just as his Mover character was on the back screen.


"They're falling back!" Tonraq cried as the Rebels and the mercenaries combated the Northerns.

"Let's keep up the tide." Itachi informed as he witnessed the Swordsmen go to work.

Kushimaru was skewering every Northern in his path. The lanky man was like a leaf in the wind, twirling around attacks, slitting every throat he could all the while cackling in glee. He rolled out of the way of a slash and snarled, "Watch it, Jinpachi!"

"Oops," the one eyed man sneered as he was hacking away at whatever opponent he could get, dosing himself in blood.

"Quite your bickering!" Jinin grunted as he made a fissure with his earthbending with aid of his mighty axe and hammer, making Northern soldiers fall in. With a twist of his foot, the fissure snapped shut with a crunch.

"Quiet being a grump, Jinin," Ameyuri cackled like a lunatic as she was dancing in rotations to generate lightning for her blades, "Let them play with the prey!" she said frying some soldiers, enjoying their screams. She flipped backwards and decapitated a soldier that had tried to sneak up on her.

"So I was thinking after this we could use a vacation, like a group getaway." Suigetsu suggested to his brother as he hacked a man in half from his stomach, "What you think, Mangetsu?" he asked, spinning around and sending some hardened water blades flying and nailing a cluster of soldiers.

"Are we talking about this, right now?!" Mangetsu snapped as he send ice tipped tendrils of water into a row of enemies.

"What better time now that I got your attention!" Suigetsu beamed as he socked a man in his face.

"Can't you focus more, like Kisame?" the older brother demanded and pointed to the blue skinned man.

Kisame was shredding his opponents' limbs off while riding on a wave, leaving crimson waters trailing behind him.

Suigetsu pouted, "Suigetsu do this, Suigetsu do that, Suigetsu shut the hell up, Suigetsu acts like so and so," he stomped his foot childishly, swinging his sword back and decapitating a man, creating a fountain of blood, "You guys are always bringing me down! It is so uncool!"

"Stop being such a baby!"

"Whee!" Yuki cheered as she was chi-blocking the waterbenders that went for her and cartwheeled away to the next group.

"Gory, aren't they?" Tarrlok said as he whipped his hand forward and a water whip slapped the head of a Northern.

"A bit." Tonraq said as his rebels were getting into the fray, "I just wish they weren't destroy so many of the buildings. But at least we got the people out." He sad with relief.

"Let's not stay out of the fight." Itachi said as he leaped forward, a burst of black fire pushing his leap as he swung down with a blazing axe of black fire, burning his opposition.

"He's got style." Tarrlok said, looking impressed as he rode a water wave into the fight, Tonraq right behind him.

"Ah, ah!" one of the rebels wailed as he was face to face with a dark spirit.

Tarrlok looked around, more and more dark spirits were coming. Some were hanging off buildings, others flying around.

"Hm, not good." He concluded.

"I can see that." Tonraq said dryly, tensing in his stance, eyeing his brother as he stood atop a flying dark spirit, the former general's niece and nephew nearby on the top of the buildings.

"RAAH!" Kisame roared as he was in the air, his sword, Samehada unbound and showing rows of dark blue scales and sharp shark teeth at the end that had an opened mouth. He swung at the spirit Unalaq rode, making it wail in pain from the ripping slash and disappearing.

Unalaq was wide eyed at the action and as he fell, rotated his arms to save himself with the water below, landing safely.

"How-!" the spirit master cried out while Kisame rose from his crouched landing.

The blue man chuckled, shouldering his sword that licked its lips, "Samehada was a cannibal spirit, fed on others to live…now I can give him a feast!" the Waterbending master laughed as his sword giggled with glee.

Unalaq turned red at that and shouted, "Attack!"

The dark spirits rained down on the troops of rebels as Kisame jumped right into the front lines with battle lust.

Unalaq in the meantime raced into the city, riding a small wave.

"No you don't!" Tonraq shouted, chasing right after him.

Unalaq waved his arms, sending ice at his older brother, but Tonraq blocked them all and made an ice pillar that threw Unalaq off his wave. He landed into a roll and as soon as he was up, he sent tendrils of water at Tonraq.

The warrior dodged them and unleashed a flurry of ice as the two brother fought viciously.

As they fought, two icy waves were coming at Tonraq just as his dodged backwards from an attack by his brother.

"Whoo!" Suigetsu shouted as he and Mangetsu blocked the waves with their own waves and counter attacked icy spears, forcing the twins to dodge.

"Didn't anyone tell you not to interrupt a brotherly fight?" Mangetsu mocked Eska, swinging his blade at the girl, nearly taking an arm off, "It's rude. And I should know that."

"Hey gorgeous." Suigetsu winked at Desna with a grin, "Heard your fiancé ditched you. Too bad for him because you are a perfect ten babe."

"…Suigetsu." Mangetsu said, eyeing Eska carefully, adjusting the grip on his sword.

"Yeah?"

"That's the brother, I'm fighting the sister."

"…What?!" Suigetsu shouted, panic in his eyes, he need mouth wash, no, mind bleach! "Quick, switch with me!"

"Not now Suigetsu!"

"Bro, come on!"

Suddenly Desna and Eska were lifted into the air, as though they were being squeezed and crying out in pain.

"Both of you stop whining." Tarrlok drawled as he stepped forward, both arms raised as his fingers were clawed, "Now, before this gets any worse, Unalaq, I would suggest giving up or your heirs will die." The criminal stated firmly, his hands slowly closing making the twins wail in pain.

"Tarrlok," Tonraq frowned, while he did not like his niece and nephew destroying his home, they were still family…unlike their father they were still children.

"Be silent," the ponytailed man said curtly, "I'm ending this now. Well, Unalaq?" he asked once more, the twins faces' beaded in sweat from the pain they were in.

"Father!" Desna pleaded as Eska was screaming in pain.

Unalaq just remained in his stance, silent, his eyes barely blinking.

Tarrlok saw the sight and clicked his tongue, "Well, it is a shame children, but it seems your father doesn't care." He throwing his arms to the side, sending the twins crashing into buildings, cracking the exterior of them, "I would suggest a retreat."

"We have him though," Tonraq argued heatedly.

"Against that?" Tarrlok pointed into the sky as another wave of dark spirits were coming.

Tonraq gritted his teeth, throwing a venomous glare at his brother, "This isn't over. Retreat!" he bellowed.

Mangetsu and Suigetsu quickly secured the twins as the rebels were forced into retreat.

And all Unalaq could do was smile.


Naruto was patting Bolin on the back, congratulating him as Varrick and Zhu Li were handcuffed and thrown into cars to be sent to jail.

Varrick's plan was to kidnap the President and blame it on the North, the Republic City wouldn't have a choice and join the war in the South. It was a good plan, Naruto thought, but a bit extreme.

Best part was, Naruto's suspension had been lifted.

Right now, all was looking good.

Then suddenly Korra arrived.

Naruto smiled, yeah, this day just got better.

"Korra!" Naruto waved, jogging over to the flying bison with Tenzin and Kya.

Korra leaped off and Naruto caught her, "Naruto." She hugged him tightly, "Listen, love to stay and chat but I have to talk to Raiko." She said, wiggling out of his hold with an apologetic look.

Naruto nodded as the president walked up to them.

"President Raiko," Korra said, a serious look on her face.

"What's wrong?" the aged man asked as Lin walked next to him.

"I know I've asked for your help before, but things have changed." Korra said sternly. "Unalaq doesn't just want to take over the South anymore, he wants to destroy the whole world." She declared, the atmosphere suddenly dropping at her very words.

Okay, suddenly this day just got a lot worse.

"Unalaq is going to destroy the world?!" Bolin gaped, "He really does have a doomsday device?" he questioned.

"He's trying to release a powerful dark spirit during Harmonic Convergence." Korra explained, "Which is only a few days away." She frowned, "If he succeeds, the world as we know it, is over."

"Then we have to stop him, now." Naruto stated firmly.

Korra looked to Raiko hopefully, "Sir, we desperately need your help."

Raiko was silent for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry Avatar Korra, but my answer is still no."

Everyone just looked at him as if he was insane.

"What?!" Naruto snapped at the man, oh this was ridiculous!

"There are lives on the line!" Tenzin marched forward, "And my daughter is one of them. Raiko, you must reconsider!" the airbender urged.

"I'm aware lives are on the line," Raiko calmly said, "And that's precisely why my troops are staying here. If the world is going to be thrown into chaos like you claim, I need to protect my citizens." He said, folding his arms behind his back.

Bolin walked up to him, resting a hand on Raiko's shoulder, "Sir, Nuktuk needs your help." He said sincerely, "I know you love helping people."

Raiko just glared at him, "Son, I appreciate you saving my life and I am a big fan of your work but my decision is final."

Just as Raiko was walking away, a fist cleaned his clock, knocking the man out.

"Naruto!" Lin shouted as her son pulled back his fist.

"What?"

"You just knocked out the President!"

Naruto gave her a dry look, "Someone needed to."

"I agree with this." Korra frowned, crossing her arms.

"I should have never saved him." Bolin huffed.

Lin just palmed her face, wonderful, this was going to be fun cleaning up.

Asami sighed out, "Well, if you guys need help, I'm here for you." She told Korra.

"Me too." Bolin smiled.

Korra smiled at her friends.

Naruto reached for Korra's hand and pulled her in for a quick kiss. Their lips parted and Naruto gave her a wild grin, "Come on, we got to go save the world. You ready?" he asked.

Korra gave him a confident smile, "Always."


Done and done!

F-ing finally!

Ugh, I hated doing this, I hate the Nuzelocke challenge (damn rival battle!), I hated my procrastination, and I hate (love) Dragon Age Inquisition for being so awesome! This chapter feels like crap to me, but I had to get it out sooner or later. Hope you guys like it, I'm personally only decently satisfied with it. But still, it is the prelude before the end of the season, that's probably why it's dry.

Still, Korra is over guys. Sad, I know. But HA! I knew Korrasami would come through and I have done my happy dance. It was nice and subtle how they did it too. Little kids wouldn't catch on to it and it wasn't outright said in the show but the creators mentioned it after the series. Which was well done.

And no, I am not making it Naruto/Korra/Asami. That's stupid to do.

Also, I did not forget Mako. He's in the next chapter. It just ended better this way.

Alright, now, I just want to make note that the next chapter is not coming out right away, it is going to take some time as I have to do real life stuff guys, like I mentioned at the start. But I will try to have it come out quicker than this one since I was in the middle of mourning. I am feeling better thankful and my family is staying strong as well.

Also, happy Superbowl Sunday my dear readers!

R&R, no flames, peace off!
