The first thing I hear is banging.. loud heavy pounding on what seems to be something made of metal.

It continues and continues in the rythem of a beating headache. I then hear a scream. "Somebody! Help! Please!"

The voice is familiar. I slowly feel myself wake up opening my eyes to first see a blurry image of someone. Only to see that it is the Avatar known as Korra.

She pounds and kicks what seems to be a metal door. I then see that me and her are stuck in a metal cage.

"How, long have I been, knocked out" I ask her as I rub my eyes together with one hand.

"How should I know? Theres no track of time here." She says somewhat annoyed with me. Giving one last hit on the metal door.

Before slumping against the opposite one looking sweaty and exhausted and realising that's not gonna get her out of here.

"Not the first time in a metal cage... Won't be the last.. Either" I mumble quietly to myself this has happen two times before, by different people.

Korra doesn't respond just places her head in her arms. I see the sweat coming off of her arms.

I lean up from my slump against the wall and lean close to Korra. I see her peak out from her arms to see this.

"What, are you doing?" She says bored and exhausted out of her mind.

I say nothing simply placing my wrists together, before raising them up and down.

"Won't work, no water." She says she has already given up somehow.

I say nothing I just focus on going up and down slowly watching as her sweat falls off her body and slowly forms into a small ball of sweat infront of my hands.

After doing that in silence with Korra pouting a little in her small ball I stop the ball about the size of an large apple.

"You can give up, but I never will" I tell her simply, as I make the ball into the shape of a small spear head. A small red spearhead.

"How, are you making it red?" She asks me confused at the sight.

"I... Don't actually know?" I say like it was a question to myself.

I turn my arms around before sharply turning them back making the spear head plunge through the metal door.

It cause only a small hole, but a hole none the less. "It will take awhile, for me to make this big enough. So why don't you meditate or something?" I ask her as I do that again. This time higher so it rips a small line.

"Alright.." Korra says as she undos her small ball. Lying flat against the wall. As she crosses her legs, closes her eyes. And puts her fists together.

She then slowly inhales and exhales before stopping.

After a few minutes of me stabbing the metal and of Korra meditating. She starts breathing deeply and raggedly like she's experiencing something horrible.

I just look to her face to see she's sweating profusely. I then look to the small hole I've made. It's only about half a square. Big enough for us to squeeze through once done.

A few more minutes and I hear Korra say. "Aang... This whole time... You were trying to warn me about Tarrlok." She finishes

I look to her and she rubs her eyes and stands up to stretch. "Almost done" I tell her as I stand with her.

Dropping the water onto the ground. It will only take a kick to break it down.

I see Korra nod as I then hear the a door creak wide open. And loud thumping footsteps down a stair way.
