The Myth of Y/N (Korra X Reader)

REVELATIONS

It has been a couple of days since the Equalist attack on the Pro-Bending arena. I still cannot believe that Amon was able to orchestrate all of it right under our noses. I'm just thankful none of us were severely hurt. Despite the depressing situation, my capture of the Lieutenant gave us at least an ounce of hope. If we're lucky he will crack under interrogation and will tell us everything we need to know about the Equalists and what they are planning. 

My victory over the Lieutenant also made the news too. I would be happy if it wasn't for the fact that I'm still a bit frustrated over the situation. Still, I guess it does help to see that my accomplishments are being recognised. 

Like on the newspaper that I am just reading:

CHI-BLOCKER CAPTURES EQUALIST LIUETENANT AT PRO-BENDING ATTACK!

Despite the declaration of war by the Equalists which has struck fear into the hearts of the benders of Republic City, there is still hope! During the attack at the Pro-Bending arena, just after the championship tournament, childhood friend of Avatar Korra and former Depute in Councilman Tarrlok's task force, the chi-blocker Y/N, was able to subdue and capture the Equalists' Lieutenant! Chief Beifong has stated that the extremist will be facing constant interrogation in order to find any useful information that could help them bring an end to this war. When asked about the situation, Councilman Tarrlok had this to say:

"I applaud the brave and heroic actions of my former depute. Because of them, we are edging closer towards the final defeat of Amon and the Equalists. It is a shame, however, that they were able to bring more success in this conflict than our current Chief of Police, whose arrogance risked the lives of many, and Avatar Korra, who was more focused on playing a game than being the hero the city needed."

I frown at the harsh criticism Tarrlok gave towards Chief Beifong and Korra. I can't believe I worked for that asshole. There has been an increasing amount of critics for the daughter of Toph and Aang's successor since the attack, with there being claims that they have failed Republic City. Even as I turn the page on the newspaper, I see an article slamming on my best friend:

AVATAR KORRA: MASTER OF ELEMENTS OR MASTER OF FAILURE?

When Avatar Korra first arrived Republic City, there were hopes that she would save the citizens from the extremists known as the Equalists and their ruthless leader, Amon, and protect the place that her predecessor and Fire Lord Zuko poured blood, sweat, and tears into creating. However, since her arrival there has been an increasing amount of doubts and criticism of the young Avatar and her actions. While there is still a substantial amount of supporters of the woman, it cannot be denied that the debate of her effectiveness is controversial.

"She is supposed to be stopping Amon, not playing some stupid game!" - Citizen of Republic City.

Doubts of Avatar Korra's abilities have been called into question even more due to the actions of her childhood friend and former Depute of Councilman Tarrlok's taskforce, Y/N. From the consensus, it appears that the young chi-blocker has received nothing but praise, both from normal citizens and well-known figures alike.

"That chi-blocker has done some real good! Are we sure they're not the Avatar? They've done more for us than she has so far!" - Citizen of Republic City.

"I met the young chi-blocker at the gala in the honour of Avatar Korra, and they were really kind to my daughter and I. I said it to them before and I'll say it again, they are a hero and the perfect representation for the non-benders of Republic City." - Hiroshi Sato.

Has Avatar Korra acted as the hero the city needs in this time of crisis? Or has her fame got to her head and she has forced her responsibilities onto her chi-blocking best friend? Only time will tell.
