"Korra wheres my fancy shirt?" Anima asked as she raided the wardrobe looking for her most pristine and expensive shirt, she was sure she packed it as she knew they where going to the see the earth queen, but she couldn't find it.

"what fancy shirt? You've never owned anything fancy" Korra says nervously making Anima sigh "what did you do to it?" she asked and Korra tapped her two index fingers together with a small pout "I might of....Sort of......Ruined it" Anima tensed as she released a frustrated breath "how did you ruin it?"

Korra smiled nervously "I slept in it when you was away for a couple days training with your mom" Korra started "and I got some green soup on it when I forgot to take it off for breakfast" Anima's eyes widened, the shirt was mainly white meaning that it would be ruined, but then she relaxed "you could of bended the stain out you know" Korra's eyes then widened before she laughed in embarrassment "I'm such a dummy"

Anima smiled lightly with a chuckle as she lightly shook her head "I didn't know the Avatar was such a dumb dumb" the purple eyed girl then kissed Korra before the Avatar got the shirt from the hiding place she put it when she realised Anima packed it.

They got the stain out and the two went outside on the deck and watched Bumi 'fight' Kai, more like Kai making a fool Bumi.

"isn't it exciting to be on a diplomatic mission to Ba Sing Se?" Korra asked as she held onto the railing in front of them "I don't know about exciting, all I'm wondering is whats the earth Queen like" Anima replied as before chucking to herself as she saw Bumi fall over after Kai quickly got out of the way of his path.

"I've never met her but I've heard she can be quite...demanding" Tenzin says, pausing before saying his last word, it was true that the earth queen was nothing like her father, she was absolutely awful to her servants and has a huge power complex.

"sounds like someone else I know" Anima smirked as she nudged Korra a little making her roll her eyes, suddenly Bolin comes flying next to them practilly hanging in the rail with a look of excitement on his face "This is it, Mako! We made it!" he shouts "this is where Dad grew up! Come here, look! Look!" he shouts his brother over, who smiled at his younger brothers eagerness "ok, calm down, I'm looking"

The airship crossed over the innerwall revealing a vast and large city below them, Anima looked upon it with amazement until she caught a terrible sent which almost made her throw up "the lower ring looks terrible" Korra says as Anima nodded in agreement "I can smell it from here no wonder Gran Gran hated it"

The airship made its way into the middle ring, which looked miles better then the lower ring but it made Anima feel bad about the living conditions in the lower ring "now this is more like it" Kai says as they pass into the centre of the city, the earth queen's Palace Anima crossed her arms "don't think about stealing anything air head, I'll be watching you" Kai raised his arms with a smile as the air ship landed.

They all went off and was greeted by a man "Avatar Korra, Spirit bender Anima and Master Tenzin, it is a pleasure to welcome you and your party to the Upper ring of Ba Sing Se, I'm grand secretariat Gun" Korra and Anima bowed saying thank you.

"ah, it's got that upper ring smell" Bolin says very calmly as Pabu, Naga and Oogie where behind him "oh no, the Queen hates animals, we've got to get them out of sight"

"well I can just stash Pabu in my shirt, these two are gonna be a little tougher" The man child says with a smile as Gun shook his head "come with me, hurry I'll take you to your quarters" the group then followed him as he led them to their quarters.

He began to list many rules that the Queen has, there were so many that Anima and Korra looked at each other with wide eyes, how someone could have so many rules was baffling to them, what made it worse was that the rules were so mundane and not really needed that it made them sigh with annoyance.

"here we are" he says with wide arms, their quarters was a big house, Anima noticed that the right side of the house looked newer then the rest of the house and remembered her grandmother saying that Tooh made a big hole when they stayed in Ba Sing Se.

Gun gave them a few minutes to get settled before taking Korra and Anima to meet the Earth Queen "Korra do I look good enough?" Anima asked as she began to fidget with her hair and fancy top, Korra smiled at Anima's cuteness before grabbing her hands and holding them "Anima, you look great, stop fidgeting or you'll ruin your hair" Anima took a deep breath as she closed her eyes before breathing out and opening them.

"better?" Korra asked and the purple eyed girl nodded "better" the Avatar smiled before they continued walking towards the Palace, they entered and was led to the balcony where the Queen was standing "your majesty, may I present Avatar Korra and Spirit bender Anima" Gun says as he bowed, the teenagers followed but the Earth Queen just began shouting "you're ruining the Koi pond!" the shout make Anima look at the Earth Queen weirdly "it's completely overshadowed by the topiaries!" she then pointed at the gardener "Guards take that buffoon away and get me someone who knows what they're doing!" she then pointed at the second gardener "you! Rip everything out and start over" the second person did as they where told, by earth bending the ground upside down and placing it back into the hole.

"I am surround by idiots" she sighs before finally turning round towards Anima and Korra "so, I finally get a visit from the Avatar and her side kick, let me guess, you both want something"

Anima's jaw clenched as she held back her anger, she didn't like being called Korra's side kick it made her feel small and pathetic "well, actually, your majesty, I was hoping you could-I hardly think you're in a position to ask me for favors after everything the last Avatar and his side kick did to the Earth kingdom" Anima's eyes glitched, going from glowing purple to her normal purple, nobody disrespected her grandmother and got away with it.

Korra saw how angry Anima was getting and told her to go and let her well deserved anger off in the airships training room, the purple eyed girl left but not before raising the the ground ever so slightly with every step she took, holding that the Earth Queen would fall flat on her ugly face.

Once she got back to the airship, it was quiet, she thought that the others will of gone out into the city but she was to angry to think of any reason anyone would want to see the city when it's Queen is such a vile person.

She went into the training room and began to bend her frustrations out on a training dummy, she used air to knock it back to the wall, water to slice the detachable arms off, used earth to crush the legs and sliced the head off with her spirit energy.

She breathed deeply as she felt calmer, the dummy had served its purpose of being Anima's anger management punching bag "I see the dummy helped" Anima looked over towards Korra who had her trademark smirk as she was leaning against the door "it did, how you stayed and not killed her is a miracle" Korra then walked into the room.

"oh trust me, when she called you my side kick I wanted to earth bend her into the ground but we needed those Airbender locations so I held it down" Anima smiled lightly as she got a training towel and wiped her four head "how did that go anyway?"

Korra sighed in frustration as the two walked out of the room "she said she'd help us if we get her tax money back from some bandits" Anima deadpaned Korra "seriously? She better help us find air benders or I'm going to prison for murder" Korra laughed as they made their way towards the bridge of the airship and set off looking the bandits"
