After speaking to Eska, Elira caught up with the boys and Asami as Korra had gone to see her parents. Bolin was thrilled to hear Eska would at least listen to him about breaking up. The team were now all waiting in Varrick's mansion as Asami was going to be closing a deal with the man and wanted her friends present.
Bolin was lounging on a couch while Elira sat on his stomach with Pabu in her lap and Pichi on her shoulder, trying to come up with a name for their team. The original Team Avatar had been nicknamed "The Gaang", so Elira felt it only fitting they too had a nickname.
"How about "The Krew"? Because we're a crew and instead of the "C" we put a "K", for Korra" The airbender suggested, scratching under Pabu's chin and making the ferret chitter happily.
"Ooh, that's a good one" Bolin smiled up at her
Asami suddenly sighed in annoyance "Where's Varrick? We should've closed our deal an hour ago."
"I'm sure he'll be here soon, Asami" Elira reassured her
"Yeah, would you relax? This place is great" Bolin grinned " And the best part about it, Eska doesn't know I'm here"
The door suddenly opened revealing Eska, Desna, and several Northern Water Tribe soldiers!
Bolin stood up so fast, causing Elira to fall to the ground with a yelp.
"Ee-yah. I wasn't hiding. Hey, hey-hey, hey" He laughed nervously
"I'm not on the hunt for you...Currently" Eska narrowed her eyes, her gaze flicking briefly to El on the floor.
"We search for Varrick. Our father wishes him to stand trial." Desna announced, his gaze also flickering to Elira as Bolin helped her up.
"What did he do?" Asami asked as the soldiers searched the room
"He is a traitor to the Water Tribe, along with our aunt and uncle" Eska revealed
"What?" Elira gasped
"Korra's parents were arrested?" Mako added
"Yes. Your powers of deduction are impressive." Desna sarcastically replied
" Yeah, he's a cop." Bolin pointed to his brother with his thump.
"Varrick's not here." The soldiers returned to the twins
"Very well. Desna, let us continue our search elsewhere" As the two turned to leave, Eska whirled around at Bolin again
" Boyfriend! Bow to me when I exit" She demanded
" Yes, yes, my sweet koala otter." Bolin knelt on the floor, bowing as Elira narrowed her eyes at the princess.
Was she serious?
"You are so cute when you grovel." Eska finally turned and left, closing the door behind her
"Don't let her treat you that way. Stand up for yourself." Asami encouraged once they were gone
"I tried to break up with her, but Mako gave me terrible advice. Thank you, Mako" Bolin stood up scowling as he crossed his arms
"Wait, how are your girl problems my fault?" Mako questioned
"Bolin, you need to be honest with her. Tell her how you really feel." Asami advised
"Exactly, and hopefully this time, she'll listen to you" Elira added, placing a hand on Bolin's shoulder
"Honesty is for fools, kid" A muffled voice suddenly called out surprising the group
"Varrick?"
"If you want to ditch this girl, then make yourself scarce. Disappear, like I did" Varrick's muffled voice continued as the teens looked around for him.
