Who Said College Was Easy

Ch 10

"Call my parents and Asami's mom. Tell them what happened." Korra says slamming the car in park, and tossing Opal her phone. Bolin and Korra jump out of the car, Korra going to get Asami while Bolin runs to the front door to get a wheelchair. They adjust Asami in the chair, Korra kisses Asami's cheek wheeling her into the hospital and running up to the front desk.

"She's been hit in the stomach, she's pregnant, help!" The nurse pages the head OBGYN while a few nurses in the area check over Asami before the doctor arrives, and to Korra surprise:

"GRAN!"

"Korra? Asami? What happened?"

"She was hit hard in the stomach." Katara puts her stethoscope to Asami's stomach.

"One heartbeat is faint... I can't find the other one. Take her to the ER, Now!" Katara says to the nurses.

"What!? Will they be ok? Wait I have to come with them!"

"Korra please, you need to stay here, I promise I will do my best for them, have you called your parents? And Asami's?" Korra nods. "You have to be here to tell them what happened. Alright?"

"...Alright." Korra sighs.

"You're friends are here with you, it'll be ok Korra." Korra sits in the waiting room, head in her hands praying to anything and everything that all three of them will be ok. The waiting room doesn't help, the bland white walls with a pale blue strip running through it, the worn light brown coffee tables with baby magazines littering it, and the phones ringing constantly are increasing Korra's anxiety. Opal and Bolin sit on either side of her holding her tightly in a small group hug they held her for about 45 minutes before Korra's parents showed up.

"Oh Korra."

"Hey mom, Gran is in there with her." Korra looks up as her mom hugs her tightly.

"It'll be ok, she will make sure of it."

"I know."

They sit there for two hours not moving, not talking, everyone on the edge of their seats. When they hear a pair of heels quickly coming their way.

"Korra! Korra, what happened!?" Yasuko comes up to them, Korra stands and motions to another other waiting room a bit down the hall, where they can talk privately.

"- and now Asami is badly hurt, I don't even know how our kids are doing."

"Brass knuckles!? Is that the girl you were seeing that did this?"

"Yes I broke up with her and she took it out on Asami. All of this is my fault, I wasn't able to protect them." Asami's mom hugs her tightly, tearing up.

"Hon, it isn't your fault. I know my daughter, she's a fighter." Korra nods in agreement.

"Where's Hiroshi?" Korra finally asks, Yasuko rolls her eyes.

"He wouldn't even listen to what I had to say, so he doesn't know about Asami and I didn't have time to deal with him so I rushed over here. When I hear more about Asami I will send him a message." Korra sighs and shakes her head at the disappointing information.

Korra and Asami's mom rejoin the others, another 2 hours tick by slow and painfully. Finally Katara walks over to the group, still in her surgical garb.

"Well?!" Korra demands seeing a sorrowful look cross Katara's face.

"They are all alive." They all release the breath they were holding, "However."

"Uh oh." Bolin says nervously.

"Asami was in worse condition than expected. The blow to her stomach caused a tear in her stomach and diaphragm as well as to the uterine wall. Asami was bleeding internally which caused some damage. There is a chance she will not wake up, however there is a very, very small chance of that happening. Thankfully you got her here with minutes to spare."
