The Cursed Blood Bender (Korra X Reader)

Ch. 9 ~Endgame~

I stir myself awake, my first waking thoughts still on the pain to my leg. I take a deep breath shaking off these thoughts, having the pain subside.

I look around the area I woke up in, it's dark almost no light I can work out the walls a dark grey rocky wall, surrounding the small room.

There's thick cobwebs in corners and crevices as well as dusty old boxes and crates left strewn about looking like they haven't been touched in centuries.

I try my best to stand or at least move my hands, both seem to fail. I feel tough metal cuffs around my wrists preventing me from separating them even by a little.

Standing failed as I'm left on my knees with one metal cuff tied around my ankle attached by a chain to the floor.

I take a closer look at it and see the floor I'm kneeling on is separated from the rest of the creaky looking wooden boards.

I let out a sigh seeing my surroundings and seeing no one in sight. "Captured, again..." I let out leaving no extra tone in my voice just, normal. Quiet monotone how ever you want to describe it.

"Let's, see how I could get out of here." I say as I take a closer look around not to many other details but I do notice the ceiling the same wooden boards, covered in cobwebs.

With footsteps overhead. Of course this is a basement, should've known. I look specifically above my head before doing anything else and notice the boards ahead having mechanical metal claws around it with the boards having been separated fo the rest as well.

I then hear a muffled voice, covering from above. I can't make it out quite just yet, so I lean my head down close my eyes, and block out my ears. I focus for above me, when I open my eyes I see above.

Well not exactly above I see through the boards, I see the living humans with blood more specifically water coursing through their veins, I make it out the one above seemingly the one talking is Amon.

There seems to be a large crowd that is just red blobs which I can see, but then I recognise two things sticking out of the crowd. It's Mako and Korra, in the crowd.

I stop focusing to let this go down and it fades from my vision. "Amon, above.. Korra and Mako.. hmm" I say thinking, moving my thoughts away from that for a second.

If I can get out of these binds Korra and Mako will be able to help. I start fidgeting with my fingers trying to reach for something or just feel if anything is behind me on the floor.

I search with what movement I can make, I then feel cold hard metal it's thin and small, but I manage to grab it between my two middle fingers.

Swapping it around my hand until it's in a position where it scratches against the cuffs. Amon is still speaking above as I scratch the metal searching for a key hole.

I don't find it quickly, but slowly scraping my way along until the little pin falls into a crevice as I start fumbling trying to use this makeshift lock pick to get me out.

I then hear from above more voices speaking muffled but speaking, they seem to be fighting over one another arguing.

I take my bets on Korra doing that, I hear a click in the cuffs meaning I would've gotten one pin from it, but I hear one last voice the one from Amon speak.

When he does I feel the spot below me raise I look up only yo get blinded by the bright golden lights above, I look down squinting my eyes still being raised.

When I come to a stop I open my eyes to see, I'm in an arena of some kind with the crowds filled with people the symbol I saw fro the Equalists on their ships and poster is in the form of large banners.
