Book 4 ~ Chapter 10

"Guys! She must have our location. She's pointing that weapon right at us!" Mako shouts to the group worriedly.

"No, she wouldn't," Baatar Jr. says, with a hurtful tone. As the gun gets ready to shoot towards them, it glows a bright purple.

"Everyone out. Now! Now!" Korra shouts loudly, as the beam shoots out from the gun. Mako takes Lei's hand and runs with the group as they try to make an escape. The beam hits the building, creating explosions and debris to fall right on the team.

The entire building of Asami's company collapsed as the spirit beam hit it. Debris was scattered everywhere, some caught on fire causing gray smoke to appear from the exploded building, or the remains of the building. The ground began to shake, as Bolin earthbended a large thick debris upwards, allowing all the survivors to escape.

"Go ahead. Take your time. Just bending a giant wall. Man, we got a lot of people here. Is that everybody?" Bolin grunted, as he earthbended the giant wall. Once everyone was out, Bolin let go of the debris with a restrained groan. Tenzin airbended to the top of another building to get an arial view. Mako held Lei, as they got out of the piles of debris.

"Kuvira is heading our way with a platoon of mechasuits," Tenzin said, as he airbended safely to the ground.

"What should we do?" Asami asked.

"This is my hometown, and I hate to say it, but there's no use risking all our lives to fight that giant thing. Let her take the city for now. We'll think of some way to come back and beat her," Bolin answered.

"What about all the people who haven't been evacuated yet?" Mako asks.

"Mako's right, the last batch of people haven't been evacuated yet. They should be in the train station, along with Wu," Lei explained, as she turned to Korra.

"If Kuvira finds out Wu is with them, she might fire that spirit cannon at him and take them all out," Mako adds, Korra sighs.

"I couldn't stop Kuvira from taking Zaofu. I'm not letting her conquer Republic City. The world isn't safe as long as she has that weapon," Korra says.

"I agree, we take down that giant today," Lin says strongly, as she stands at the top of the debris. Korra smiles at her.

"Lin!" Korra shouts, upon seeing her.

"Glad to see you all made it out. You had me worried," Lin said, as she walked over to the group.

"Well, you benders are gonna have to fight her alone. She just blew up our factory with all our hummingbird suits," Varrick says, Asami conjured an idea.

"Not all of them. There are prototypes back at my office that Kun is still working on. If we can get tjose ready to fly, we'll at least be able to offer a little air support," Asami says, Korra nods then turns to Su.

"Su, you take Baatar Jr. and the rest of the wounded back to Asami's office. Get those suits working as soon as you can. The rest of us will just have to face Kuvira on our own," Korra says.

Team Avatar split up with Asami and Varrick, along with the rest of Su's family headed to her office to finish the prototypes. Korra and the rest of Team Avatar, along with Lin and the airbenders headed to the city where they would face Kuvira. They ran along the streets heading towards Kuvira's giant mechasuit. Meelo was tagging behind when he spotted a paint store.

"A paint store? That's it!" Meelo exclaimed, as he broke the door to the paint store open with his airbending, catching the attention of the rest of the team.

"What are you doing, Meelo?" Lin asked angrily.

"I just got an idea how to beat the giant! Now, everyone, grab some paint and find me some balloons!" Meelo ordered. Oddly enough Meelo explained his plan to Team Avatar, which they approved since it would work and it was their only option. They spotted the mechagiant in the city, airbenders taking off to the sky heading straight for it. Kuvira noticed they were incoming, and aimed her spirit ray right at them. She was about to shoot a spirit beam until a large blue fire wall, just as tall as the giant was blocking her vision. Kuvira looked down to see Lei, smirking right at her. She controlled her giant to step on her but she was soon distracted when the fire wall came down and emerged the airbenders in a tight formation. Kuvira sends a spirit beam quickly, causing the airbenders to be separated from their formation and began to fly around the giant like a swarm of flies. Meelo airbended towards the eyes of the giant, dodging the giant hand trying to smack him.
