A/n- So uh I'm sorry for being gone for so long still not sure If I'm fully back starting Uni going there tomorrow, but I'm here so enjoy.

Previously on Legend of Korra

Korra and the others have gained a new ally Kai whether he can be trusted has to be seen, while Lord Zuko is hot on the trail behind Zaheer and knowing where he'll be is flying towards the northern water kingdom.

And now

Korra was standing next to Tenzin watching Kia and Bummy go at it Kai swiped his feet with his airbending.

Korra: It's so exciting to be on a diplomatic mission to Ba Sing Se but in all honesty guys I feel uneasy.

Tenzin: Perhaps you need a break you have been pushing yourself, he'll be fine.

Bolin runs to accompany Korra and Tenzin, swinging his legs under the railings in excitement.

Bolin: This is it, Mako! We made it! This is where Dad grew up! Come here! Look, look!

Mako: Okay, calm down, I'm looking.

Soon the airship approached the Outer Wall of Ba Sing Se.

The Airship passed the outer layer of the city and gag to the horrible smell entering their nose.

Korra: Why does the Lower Ring look so terrible? Why isn't the earth queen doing anything about this?

Bolin: Yeah, I can smell it from here. No wonder Dad left.

With time they pass to the middle ring and to the higher ring where the Royal Palace was located. The ramp opens and the party exits the airship, welcomed by a well-dressed Earth Kingdom man.

Gun: Avatar Korra, Master Tenzin, it is a pleasure to welcome you and your party to the Upper Ring of Ba Sing Se. I'm Grand Secretariat Gun.

Korra: Thank you.

Bolin Aah, it's got that Upper Ring smell, he sniffed the air with Naga, Pabu and Oogi with him.

Gun: Oh no, the queen hates animals. You'll have to get them out of sight.

Bolin: Well, I can just stash Pabu in my shirt, these two are going to be a little tougher.

The man sighs and takes them all with him telling them all the crazy rules the earth queen has.

Korra: seems like an awful lot of rules.

Gun: Oh, you have no idea. And I'm the one who gets in trouble when people don't follow them, so please, please for my sake try not to upset Her Majesty.

Kai not paying attention watches Earth Kingdom citizen walks past, with a sly look on his face, he sidles away from the group to go after them.

Gun: Here we are.

Bolin: Ooh, very swanky.

...

On the other side of the Globe, Nathan and Yue were getting closer to the centre of his mind.

Nathan: How far are we, I'm feeling kind of drained.

Yue: Then we must hurry it means Vaatu is weakening your soul and will attempt to take control.

Nathan: Damn it!

He grunts and starts sprinting Yue was flying behind him, he needed to wake up as soon as he could he wasn't sure of what was happening outside but form what Yue told him it was bad but Korra was doing good.

Nathan: 'Just wait Korra I'll wake up soon.'

...

Back in the earth kingdom.

Kai slides out of his top only to leave it in Mako's hand and airbends the two brothers to the other side of the train. Everyone sitting in the monorail looks stunned. Kai runs out of the monorail. Mako and Bolin run to get off but the door closes.

Mako: Hey!

Kai: smiles and waves at Mako and Bolin as the train leaves the station.

Mako: Your little brother, huh?

Bolin: Yeah ... just a lovable little scamp, isn't he?

Mako: Reminds me of my little brother.

Train conductor: Designated express line to the lower ring. Next up, is Poh Kong Station.

The train moves and begins departing from the upper ring arriving all the way to the lower ring. It opens and both step out.

Bolin: All right he got us good he's been here for a day it feels like he's been running the streets for years let's see if we can catch a train back to the Upper Ring.

Mako: Bo, not to burst your bubble but he stole our money!

Bolin: What!? No, *pats himself* no, no aw man.

Asami and Korra were taking the airship to the vaults the Earth Queen said she kept her money.

Asami: Are you sure we shouldn't have brought more people to collect the tax money?

Korra: There are royal guards waiting at the vault. I doubt anything will happen. I think Her Majesty likes ordering me around.

Asami: But do you trust her I'm not trying to overstep but she seems kind of shady.

Korra: Mn I feel the same I'm going to question her when we get back.

Asami: Wow I like this new Korra thinking with her brain hah.

Korra: I learned from the best didn't I?

...

In the lower district.

Bolin: Ohh man, aww I slipped a disc sleeping here. It's been a while since we spent the night in a trash pile. It's about how I remembered.

Mako: I bet everyone's freaking out that we've been gone all night.

Bolin: You mean Asami? My future sister?

He gave a sly smile.

Mako: Shut up.

Bolin and Mako get up walking along the street glancing at a street stall their stomach grumbling.

Bolin: Foo, I'm getting really hungry. Haah, we might have to hustle up a little breakfast with the old, fruit stand scam. Come on. You remember how it goes, I push you into the stand, you scream, I pretend to faint.

Mako: I don't want any part of it. Besides, look at this fruit, it's disgusting. We don't want to steal this.

Suddenly a Bolin lookalike rises from under the stand.

Tu: Hey, you trying to steal my fruit?

Mako: No, I just said I don't want any of this rotten fruit.

Tu: Oh, you're too good for my fruit? This is the best fruit on the block.

Mako: So you want me to steal it?

Tu: Just try me, buddy. [Kisses his bicep.] Go ahead.

Bolin: I'm confused. Are we stealing the fruit or not?

Tu: I knew it. Thieves! 

Mako and Bolin turn around and try to escape, but Tu jumps out of his fruit stand and tackles them. They all land as another man walks to them with a basket of apples unaware of their relations.

...

At the Northern Air temple.

Zuko's dragon enters the Northern Water Tribe along with Zuko and Tonraq, riding on its back. It roars as Zuko and Tonraq walk into Desna and Eska's throne room with the twins slouching on their thrones.

Desna: Lord Zuko, Uncle, this is a surprise, if you are here to see Nathans recovery then nothing has changed although I did play with his hair for a little while.  

Eska: She was about to bleach his hair but the sister attacked, it was the most exciting thing that has happened. Ruling the tribe is so tedious.

Zuko: We are not here for the boy sadly, we need to check on a secret ice prison in the western tundra.

Desna and Eska who are standing up now, pull a smile interested.

Within Nathans mindscape, as he runs closer to the centre of his mind Yue comes to a halt.

Yue: Nathan there here.

Nathan: Whos here?

Yue: Zaheer.

Nathan: What!? Why are they here!?

Yue:... Two things one is to free their final comrade locked in a secret prison and the other is... for you.

Hearing that Nathan stepped back a little.

Nathan: Yue who are these people and why me?"

Yue: *Solemnly* I'm sorry my child it's not how I wanted you to know but I shall be brief Zaheer used to be a part of the white lotus but his Ideals changed and with that change came supporters who believe the best way to free the world is to kill the avatar, they've succeeded before but failed to end the cycle and I fear if they capture you can do so again.

Nathan: I don't understand you mean Aang was killed by these people he didn't die of his age... no this makes sense actually because Korra was taken by the white lotus when they found out she was the avatar and wanted to protect her.

It was all starting to come together and with this realisation, he had to hurry even more.

...

Korra and Asami approach a building where the tax money is stored. Korra looks around aimlessly. The villagers hide their faces away.

Korra: I don't like the looks of this. Let's hurry up and get out of here.

The Royal Earth Kingdom guard opens the door and two come out pulling a metal cart filled with gold.

Korra: 'I don't like this at all,' Go ahead and load it on the airship.

Four Royal Earth Kingdom guards bring the tax money into the airship. Suddenly, a red light appears in the sky. The Royal Earth Kingdom guards look up in surprise, so does Korra and Asami. Four motorcycles jump up a ramp, two motorcycles accompanied the truck to the airship. Royal Earth Kingdom guards run away in fear, dropping one sack of gold.

Asami: So much for our escorts.

Korra: Okay Korra just breathe and be calm.

She closed her eyes and burst open in the avatar state she jumps and slams the ground causing a shockwave and the earth beneath to bend rippling outwards it stopped all the men in motorcycles dead in their tracks.

Barbarians: I-Its the avatar!

Korra gets up dusting herself, her eyes return to normal and she sighs walking to the nearest guy.

Korra: Sorry to disappoint you but the queens ordered me to take this gold back to her but looking around I think I'm missing part of the story here care to fill me in?

Barbarian: T-the money's belongs to us! Look around she's been increasing the tax rate and we've been suffering all this time.

Asami: That explains the lower part of Ba Sing Se.

Korra: I knew I didn't like her.

Barbarians: And worse she's been abducting benders.

Korra froze hearing his words and had to ask him again.

Barbarian: ONe of our pals was able to air bend so you know lucky us right? We have been robbing and fighting the feds easier but when word came to the earth she sent her royal guards after him and... we never saw him again.

Korra: *Shaking fist* that lying stuck-up son of a bitch!

She burst a fuse and turned around.

Korra: Keep the gold I need to have a word with the queen.

She stomped, Asami following with the same pissed of looks.

The barbarian was about to burst into tears bowing and thanking her, some of the villagers also stepped out doing so.

...

Eska: Why didn't anyone tell us we have a secret prison we could have been throwing people in?

Desna: I'd like to put my tailor in here. He never gets my cuffs right. They're so ... crease-y.

A Lift comes up and opens as Zuko and the group walk toward it. The lift is going down to P'Li's prison cell.

Zuko: We built this place secretly with your father to hold a very special prisoner. She's a powerful firebender named P'Li who can create explosions with her mind. Ironically, I hired a guy with a similar ability to kill the Avatar myself once... Didn't work.

Eska:... Don't feel bad. I tried to kill Korra after she ruined my wedding and dating previous snuggle muffin. It happens.

Tonraq: Let's just focus on keeping this woman in prison and about attempts at my daughter's life.

When the door of the lift opens, basking the foursome in light, Tonraq is the first to walk out sing a deep ice chasm with a prison, guarded by two White Lotus members, on the other side. Inside the prisoner.

Zuko: The intense cold prevents her from firebending.

Desna: There's certainly no way anyone's breaking out of here.

Zuko: That's what we thought about the other three prisons.

P'Li: There must be something exciting going on. No one interesting has visited me in thirteen years.

Tonraq Don't get used to it.

P'Li: He's out, isn't he? Mmm, I'm feeling warmer already.

...

In front of the queen is Korra Gun and Hou-Ting.

Gun: Your Majesty. The Avatar has returned.

Hou-Ting: And what about the tax payments?

Gun: Y-yes about that.

Korra: 'I cant believe this!' I gave the money back to the city you earth queen have been wrongly taking advantage of them and I've heard the rumours of you abduction airbenders for your secret army! So let them go because you essential starting a war again the new air nation.

Hou-Ting: You dare barge into my palace make demands of me without completing the demands of my own!? What give you the right to asked and question me!? Guards!

She snapped her fingers and soon both Asami and Korra were surrounded by all her guards Gun gulped and ran away from this.

Korra: 'Are you serious!' Authority right? You have a right to your people and instead, you suck them dry for your own selfish greed you bi- 'stop breath calm down.'

She calmed herself from blowing up, she had to be calm that's what she told herself that's what Nathan would do and she knew it was the right path right?

Hou-Ting: Good, bow and apologise to me and I'll overlook your outburst and let you leave. Atleastdp something right for once honestly I can now understand that boy for dying he's just as crazy as you are.

Gun: Oh no my queen why?

Asami: 'This is bad!'

Asami looked at Korra whose fist was shaking continuously. The queen was about to have a bad time.

Korra:.......
