"Korra, the State Championship is at the end of the semester. If your grades do not improve. I'm sorry, but you might not be able to play." Tenzin sighed.

"Whhaaattt!!! But Tenzin I'm the best player on the team. You know we're undefeated this year?! EVERYONE is depending on me!!" Korra exasperated.

"Korra, calm down. You know I care about you. Your parents trusted in me to take you in because they knew you would have a better schooling here. As well as a better chance at scholarships and recruitment to the elites colleges. But you must understand they care just as much about your academics." Tenzin stood up and looked out the window. "Coach Beifong reached out to me and I've arranged for a tutor to help you out on this."

"A TUTOR!?" Korra clasped her hair. She shut her eyes thinking, "Spirits, I'll never hear the end of it. There go all my cool points."

Tenzin sighed, "I already know what you're thinking. No one will know about this. Ive made arrangements for you to meet at the tutors house. So, your reputation will remain intact."

"I don't need a tutor." Korra pouted.

"Your grades do not reflect that." Tenzin inhaled, "Korra, keep an open mind. Your body is strong, but that does not last forever. The knowledge you gain can last much longer than your physical body. I understand when you're young, you feel invincible and nothing can tear you down. But I will be honest with you, things can happen. I don't want you to have nothing else to fall back on, if things don't work out for you."

Korra grunted. "Nothing is gonna happen to me, I'm the toughest, strongest Alpha there is at Republic City High. As well as the most popular and most wanted." Korra smirked a little, thinking of all her conquests.

Tenzin continued,"As Ive said before, I've made arrangements for you to meet at the tutors residence. It took at little convincing before she agreed. She is one of the smartest students there is at Republic City High. Luckily for you, her family has their own private library in their own home. So you wont be disturbed and .." Tenzin rolled his eyes, "your friends will not be made aware that you are being tutored."

Korra palmed her face and sunk into her chair, "Who is my tutor?"

"Asami Sato." Tenzin stated.

Korra went into deep thought trying to figure out who Tenzin was referring to.

Tenzin turned to seemingly lost teen, "Korra, I know your reputation for being the coolest person in school. But right now we need you to be ...." Tenzin thought about his words cautiously. "...the maturest student at Republic City High. Be a role model."

Korra choked a little and tried to hold in her laugh.

Tenzin sat down and looked into Korra's eyes. "Asami is a very important person Korra. Her father has a lot of influence. Not only in Republic City, but the rest of the world as well. I need you to be respectful and on your best behavior. Me and your father had to pull major strings to convince Mr. Sato to allow his daughter to tutor you."

"Ok, ok, ok Tenzin, I will do this." Korra got up from her chair. "Can I go now?"

"You are excused Korra." Tenzin began typing on his computer. "See you at dinner tonight."

Korra exited the room. She stalked down the hallway grumbling "Stupid Tenzin, stupid academics, stupid tutors....I will be fine without all this school stuff. All I need is me and my skills. I'll be the NFL in no time."

"Korra!! Over here!" Opal waved. "So what did Tenzin tell ya?"

Korra placed her tray down and looked around the table. Everyone's faces interested in her response.

"Uhhh nothing, just the usual. I'm important, the State Tournament will be here soon, train, blah, blah, blah." Korra said as she began picking at her food.

"We're so ready for any team this year. Undefeated! Yeah we got this!" Bolin proudly boasted.

"We do have one of the best teams all around." Mako high fives his brother.

Kuvira scoffed and crossed her arms. "Well, the rest of the teams are small, weak and lack discipline."

"Well, we have the best Quarterback ever!" Bolin motioning to Korra.

"Bo, Be cool." Korra replied.

Bolin cleared his throat, sat down, leaned back and placed his arm back onto the chair.

"Yeah, be cool if you wanna keep sitting at the cool table." Tahno smoothly replied. "Speaking of which... Nerd Alert." Tahno pointed to a raven haired girl as she looked for an available place to sit."

"Uhhh Who is that?" Bolin asked.

"Nobody important." Kuvira replied.

Opal nudged her step sister. "Actually, that is Asami Sato. Her dad owns like half the city."

Korra tried not to look too quickly. She casually looked over to see who Opal was referring to. She spotted Asami sitting down at a table in the far corner. "So, She's my tutor. Argh! Well, thankfully Tenzin kept this on the down low. These guys would be all over me if they knew she was going to tutor ..."

A hand on her should caught her attention, "Korrrraaaaa..." It was Ginger. "Korraaaa ... you better had a damned good excuse for not answering my calls darling." She reached over and grabbed a slice of apple that Korra was half finished with.

"Uhhhh yeah training. I was busy with training. Gotta work these muscles to keep this body maintained." Korra replied.

"MMMMmmmmm and what a body it is.." Ginger whispered in Korra's ears. "Keep it up Tiger and I'll maintain your body in multiple ways, lover." Ginger wrapped her arms around the Alpha.

Korra squirmed out of Gingers arms. "Well, gotta go to class guys. I... uhhh ... got a... a uhhhh assignment I gotta finish before class." She got up and walked back into the hallways.

"Alphas.." Ginger groaned. "Only good for one thing."

Opal got up. "Well, hate to leave while this party is getting started. But I got a class as well."

"Just have one of these nerd boys do it for you." Ginger replied. "They will do anything if I just look at them for a second. But come on, like they stand a chance with muah. Still, though they serve a purpose. Getting me passed through High School."

Opal grabbed her tray. "Well, some of us care about our education. Later guys." With that she walked off.

Korra got to class early only because she wanted to get away from Ginger. Ever since they first hooked up Ginger has been on her like an Omega in heat. They never became official. It was just a few times. And to Ginger that meant relationship. Korra groaned at the thought. "Ginger is so not the one for me."

Korra was the only one in the classroom; so she began playing games on her phone. The door opened and she observed Asami walking in. Her hair was tied back and slightly a mess. Her clothes were baggy and loose. She wore glasses with frames that were way to big for her face. She held far too many books than was needed tightly to her chest. Finally, Korra noticed that she always looked down and never looked up. She sat front row center. Korra thought "I bet she's always the first in class and front row center. I really did get the nerdiest nerd for a tutor."
