Chapter 17: Closure
*Bolin Pov*
Bolin: Your a FireBender Opal!?
Opal: Uh...Yeah...Shocker Huh? Hehe....
*She had stood still as the Hooded Figures looked at them with all of them deciding to charge at them full on.*
Hooded Figures: Die Metal Clan Filth!!
*They where about to throw another smoke grenade at them before Opal had acted quickly and used her leg to blast fire at them sending them back. From everyone hearing loud noises outside. Suyin, Lin, Rivin, Aiwei, Kai had walked outside.*
Kai: What the HELL is all this noise!?
Bolin: N-Ninja's!! Bending...Gone for a bit...Opal FireBender!!
Rivin: Wait, What!?
*The Hooded figures looked over seeing they would be outnumbered and this wasn't what they where needed to do here so they began to run away.*
Hooded Figure: Retreat!! We already have what we need!
*They all jumped off the ledges and made there escape by them having there body armor give off a flight suit and they glided away. Lin had rushed over and looked extremely angered Before looking at Suyin.*
Lin: "Safest City" in the world Sis?!
Suyin: I'm just as mad about this as you Lin. I don't know how those people got in! Aiwei, you made sure they weren't followed in correct?
Aiwei: Yes, I did my lady. I promise.
Kai: Something is going on. And I don't like it.
Rivin: What are you talking about?
Kai: I think there's a spy here.
Lin: Well...not the worst idea.
Suyin: Lin, If there was a spy we would know. Aiwei is a Truth seer. This..."Shredder" individual you speak of could just be sending people across the world to look for you all. But I promise you will all be safe here.
Lin: That is the biggest load of crap and you know it Su! I've had enough of you, I'm taking matters into my own hands and having Korra leave with me. I need to- *Made a painful grunt as she held her head*
Aiwei: Are you Okay Ms?
Lin: I'm fine...I just have a headache is all. I'll be fine.
Aiwei: It doesn't take a Truth Seer to know that you aren't doing okay. You need to deal with your meta issues or else it will get worse.
Lin: I'm not going to talk about my feelings.
Aiwei: I know this acupuncturist. *Gave her a card* You won't have to say a word.
Lin: *Looked at it* Hm.
Kai: And where would we go exactly? We are basically wanted all across the world. Here we can at least defend ourselves.
*Rivin was sitting down next to Bolin who was holding four fingers infront of him to check his vision.*
Bolin: Four, right?
Rivin: Yes.
Bolin: *Stands up* Okay, are we gonna at all talk about that Opal is a fire bender?!
Rivin: That does seem a bit odd. Opal did you father have any FireBender ancestors by chance?
Opal: Oh well...I don't think so.
Suyin: This is all strange but let's just move on and focus on the important issue.
Rivin: Uhh...isn't THIS an important issue?
Suyin: No it's just-
Opal: Mom...are you hiding something from me?
*Suyin went quite for a bit before she looked at Aiwei.*
Suyin: Aiwei, please leave us. This is...private between family.
Aiwei: Of Course Miss.
*He then left them all as everyone was looking at Suyin weirdly as she did that.*
Lin: Su, What is with you? Why are you acting like this?
Suyin: *She sighed* I can't believe I have to reveal this...
Opal: Reveal What?
Suyin: Kai...*Looked up at him* Remember when you came to visit me seven-teen years ago?
Kai: Yes? What do you- *Stoped speaking and turned a pale color* No.....
Suyin: *Nods while looking to the side*
Kai: No...
Suyin: *sighed* Yes...
Rivin: Will someone...PLEASE explain to me what you two are talking about!?
Kai: Rivin, me and Su had a...We well...spent a night together seventeen years ago.
Rivin: Wait, Wait, Wait. She was married at the time...
Kai: I...Know.
Opal: Mom, What are you saying!?
Suyin: Opal....*Held her hand* Kai is your Father.
Opal: W-What?
*She was taken shocked and backed away and didn't let her mother touch her.*
Opal: Y-You cheated on dad!!?
Suyin: Opal, you have to understand...I was unhappy and confused at the one and-
Opal: And!? Y-You Just thought about hiding it and didn't tell Kai that you had a KID with him!?
Suyin: Opal...I know my mistakes but please let me talk and explain.
*Opal shook her head as tears began to form in the corner of her eyes as she then ran off behind her heading to her room.*
Bolin: Opal!!
Lin: *To Bolin* Go, someone needs to comfort her. I'm gonna have a serious conversation with these two.
*She looked over at Kai and Suyin glaring at them before Bolin nodded and ran off to go and comfort Opal.*
*Time skip*
*Lin Pov*
*Lin was laying on a table with her only wearing a tank top and her pants as she and an acupuncturist was placing thin needles across her body.
Lin: How many of those things are you gonna be sticking in me?
Acupuncturist: I'll be placing several needles on each of your pressure points. There is nothing to be scared about.
Lin: I'm not afraid of needles!
Acupuncturist: Please, close your eyes and take a deep breath.
*Lin did as told and closed her eyes as needles where placed across in different parts of her body.*
Acupuncturist: This process will the imbalances in your Chi. Please tell me if you feel any pain or pressure.
Lin: I can't feel a thing.
Acupuncturist: That's unusual, your Chi must be heavily blocked. We're going to need more needles.
*He then got more and placed several more across her body before having one more going to her forehead.*
Acupuncturist: Acupuncture often taps into people's buried memories. These memories can often at times be difficult to process.
Lin: *Scoffs* Buried memories heh...
*The final needle was placed on her forehead as she began to sweat a bit and her mind started to drift off to her memories.*
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
Acupuncturist: Your going to feel very fragile after this so it's probably best to take it easy for a while.
Lin: I don't need to rest. I need to do something I should have done a long time ago.
*Lin had gotten up and made her way out of the Acupuncturist's office and exited the building heading elsewhere.*
*Korra Pov*
*In the courtyard Korra was seen training on her water bending to at least get that worked back in order but she was having difficulty with it. Suyin and Rivin where watching her.*
Korra: Grrr....
Suyin: Take it easy Korra. I may not be a WaterBender but just calm yourself.
Rivin: Indeed. I know you can't bend the other elements because of Y/n but I'm pretty sure you can WaterBend still.
Korra: *Outbursts a bit* I'm trying Okay!! Just give me a bit of time!!
Rivin: Okay...Okay. I'm sorry Korra.
Korra: *Sighed But nods* Its Okay, I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have yelled like that.
*Just then Bolin then came in with Pabo on his shoulder and he looked at Suyin.*
Bolin: So Umm...I've been thinking...and I'd like to learn Metal Bending.
*Suyin Looked at him smiling calmly before she got up and walked over to him which made Bolin nervous.*
Bolin: I mean...Umm...I'm sure you have a waiting list or something like a couple years so...
Suyin: *Places hand on his shoulder* Lets get started.
*Before he could respond the ground underneath them had started to crack and break as they all turned around seeing Lin there breathing heavily and sweating.*
Bolin: *Leaning towards Korra and Rivin* I think Lin is mad about somethin!
Lin: Su! It's time we talked!
Suyin: After thirty years your finally ready to talk?
Lin: When we where in Mom's office that day you could have taken responsibilities for what you did! But instead you staid quiet and let mom throw her whole career away!
Suyin: Mom didn't throw her career away. She retried next year, she was a hero.
Lin: You think she WANTED to retire!? She was so guilt ridden with what she did to protect you that she didn't feel worthy with her badge!
Suyin: Look, I will admit that I wasn't a perfect kid and that I made mistakes in the past but-
Lin: *Laughs* Oh you made SOME mistakes?
Suyin: Lin, mom and I talked about this stuff years ago and worked things out. If you had gotten together with us just like we asked you would know i'm different person now. I've been a different person for a long time!
Lin: You think that just because you live in a big fancy house and have a chef that can cook fancy food that makes you a different person?! You may be able to fool everyone else but I see right through you!
Suyin: You know what Lin? Your the one who hasn't changed. Your still a bitter loner who cares about herself! No wonder Tenzin ended things with you years ago.
Rivin: Uh-Oh.
*Lin then stomped her feet down and raised up a boulder in the form of a spike and threw it at Suyin who broke it with her gauntlets.*
Suyin: Okay, I guess this is how it's gonna be!!
*She then caused the ground underneath Lin's feet to them chuck her across the area but Lin just got back up and threw Meteorites that where on display at Suyin and she raised up a metal plate from the ground to block it. Korra, Rivin, And Bolin all watched this from the side.*
Korra: Should we stop them?
Bolin: You don't have any siblings. Fighting is all apart of the healing process.
Rivin: *Nods* Mm-Hmm.
*Both Lin and Suyin where still fighting each other with Rivin, Korra, and Bolin hiding/ducking in some nearby bushes. Just then Kai ran in to see what was happening.*
Kai: What the hell is happening here!?
Rivin: Lin has gone crazy and Suyin and her are fighting!!
*Suyin had thrown Lin across the area and she had landed on her back against some steps to a stairwell and Suyin walked across a short water bridge.*
Suyin: You got it out of your system yet?!
Lin: Not quiet!
*Lin had used her bending to lift up some of the stair steps behind her and lifted them up and Suyin lifted up a massive boulder and when they threw it at each other Opal had jumped it and flames emitted from her hands destroying both objects.*
Opal: What are you two doing!? Your sisters why would you want to hurt each other!?
*Suyin was catching her breathe lightly but Lin was breathing uncontrollably heavy and her eyes rolled back as she began to fall backwards and pass out but Korra glided over to her and caught her before her head hit the ground.*
*Time skip*
*Everyone was waiting outside of Lin's room now as they where wondering what she was doing since it has been hours.*
Korra: Uhh...Who's gonna knock?
*She then smacked Bolin on the back making him go forward.*
Bolin: Woah! Woah! Not me! Your the Avatar why can't you do it!!
Korra: Uhh...I can! I just thought-
Rivin: For god's sakes. I'll do it. *Knocks on door* Uh, Ms. Beifong are you okay? You've been asleep for sixteen hours and we are just wanted to make sure your okay- Ah!
*He got cut off when the door was opened and he fell forwards on the ground and they looked to see Lin awake in new clothes and looked refreshed as she yawned.*
Lin: *Cheerful* Good-morning!
Bolin: *Looked at Rivin* Uhh...Is there a chance we crossed into an alternate dimension where Lin is nice?
Rivin: *Got up* Uhh...No.
*Lin had walked away from them as she had gone into the dinning area where a chef had put down a glass with a green liquid inside it and a piece of vegetable on top as a garnish.*
Lin: Whats this?
Chef: I call it: The KaleNutscko. It's a mixture of Kale, Coconut water, and walnuts.
*Lin looked at the glass before grabbing it and drinking it and she enjoyed it finishing he whole drink before settling the glass down.*
Lin: Not bad! *Glanced seeing Opal in hallway* Opal don't go.
*Opal stopped before signing and she then walked into the room.*
Lin: Please, sit down. I wanna talk with you.
*Opal nodded before she sat down beside her aunt and the two started a conversation with each other.*
Lin: Look I'm just not comfortable with talking about these kinds of things. And I wanted to say I'm sorry for the way I've been acting lately while I've been here.
Opal: It's okay.
Lin: Your mother and I have a very complicated relationship. And...
Opal: It's probably very uncomfortable for you to be around here.
Lin: *Smiled* Your a smart young woman. And an excellent Fire Bender. Now, I know this is horrible with finding out that Kai is your real father. It was a shock for everyone, but you shouldn't let that single thing define you. I think it would be a wonderful opportunity for you to train with Kai and learn the basics from him.
Opal: There's a part of me that wants to do that. But...I don't wanna upset my mom.
Lin: When I was younger, all I wanted to do was to please my mother. I became a police cheif because I thought it would make her happy, but it didn't. You need to make decisions based on what you want. Don't make the same mistakes that I did.
*Opal smiled as she had gotten up and the two had shared a hug with each other.*
*No ones Pov*
*In a far away place of the Metal Clan city, Aiwei and a Female solider in armor beside him had contacted a hooded Figure as they looked at him in his hologram state.*
Aiwei: I regret to inform you of this Master Shredder...but it appears that The Avatar has gained a new alliance with the Metal Clan.
Solider: And they are suspicious about Aiwei. They know there's a spy here.
"Ahh...You did the right thing to call. Aiwei and Kuvira."
*The hologram figure raised there head looking at them with the slick armor design revealing who they are.*
"I promise you, I will be there shortly to deal with them myself."
To be continued....
