Korra sighed as she put the book she was trying to pay attention to onto the table. Glancing over at Asami who was sleeping on the couch she felt a pang of guilt.
She is wearing herself out…
She thought, ignoring the pain in her arms as she air bent a blanket onto the older girl.
“This is why I didn’t want her to come here. She’s going to make herself sick worrying about me.” She muttered, sighing as she wheeled her way toward the kitchen.
“Hey Dad...Help me get to Katara’s hut. I need to talk to her.” She stated, surprising everyone at the table.
Asami awoke to the sound of the door opening. The noise causing her to sit up, curious at who would be entering the house after dusk. though to her surprise it was Korra being wheeled in by Eska.
Korra’s body was covered with sweat, her hair was a mess and her body was decorated with multiple bruises.
“What happened?” The engineer demanded tremulously as she got up from the couch and made her way over to the pair.
“I asked Katara if I could try again…I need to get better as soon as I can.” Korra answered, her voice sounding frail. Although a familiar, crooked grin painted itself across her face.
"Korra..." The engineer began, sighing in frustration at the young Avatar who held up a hand to silence her.
"Asami...I can't let this eat at me. Especially not when it effects so many people." The universal bender cut her off.
The non-bender only sighed, before nodded meekly.
"How can I help?"
