Book 1: Air (Legend of Korra x oc)

Five- The Spirit Of Competition

Gya never thought she'd be happy to be back in the practice room with everyone but she was. Watching them all train together made her smile. Especially when they all were knocking each other over. She held Pabu on her lap. Giving him treats from her pocket. She spoiled Pabu. "It's good to have you two back." Mako said, smiling at the two girls. "I mean I'm just the cheerleader so." Bolín groaned, walking over to Gya. "I told you I was sorryyyy." She smiled and poked his side. "It's so great being back. Although Torrlak isn't happy about my leave of absence." Korra said, Gya fake gagged. "Well you joined the fire ferrets before you joined his task force." Bolín pointed out, Mako waved his arms in. "Ok team huddle." At first Gya didn't move. Watching them all huddle together, but they turned to look at her. "What?" She asked, confused on why they were staring at her. "Team cheerleader means your part of the team. Get over here." Mako said, reaching his arm out to her. She rolled her eyes but stood up. Pabu climbed up her arm and perched on her shoulders. She smiled at Pabu and then walked over, huddling between Mako and Bolín. "Tonight is the first round of the tournament and we've never been this good. I know us four haven't been a team for long but we're gonna do great. Ready?" Everyone agreed when a voice cut in. "Not quite." They all looked up to see Asami with the new uniforms. "Your gonna need these." Mako smiled, walking over to her. "Morning Asami." He said, they started talking to each other all mushy. Calling each other nicknames and being all touchy. Rubbing their noses together. Korra gagged and Gya grimaced uncomfortably. "I'll see you guys before the match tonight. Me and Asami have a lunch date." Bolín waved to them and then turned to Korra as she packed her stuff. "Hey Korra, so their going and we're here. Just us two, alone, together." He smiled at her and she just stared. Gya watching with an annoyed face. She was still there. "I've got to head back to the temple and train with Tenzin. See you later Bolín." He watched her leave with a dejected look. "Two alone people?" He jumped at Gyas voice. "Woah uh! Gya no, I mean you were here, I forgot about you, well I didn't didn't forget about you. Just forgot you were here." Gya rolled her eyes and grabbed her bag. "My suggestion with Korra, just ask her to go out. She's not gonna reject you." Gya said, patting him on the shoulder. "See ya Bolín."

Gya stood on a ladder carfully. Grabbing fruit from Jinora and setting it in the cage. They were setting up a feeder for the lemurs when the Jinora and Ikki turned to Korra. "So what up with you and the tall, handsome fire bender boy?" Jinora asked Korra, a small smirk on her face. "Yeah yeah! Is he your boyfriendddd." Ikki asked, pulling on Korras shirt. "What? No, me and Mako are just friends. I don't have time to date, and besides he's with that prissy, pretty, rich girl." Gya sighed, shutting the gate to the feeder. Locking it with the key. A few lemurs climbed down from the tree. Eating the fruit from the feeder. "Asami is really nice Korra. Stop judging her because of her looks and money." Korra ignored Gyas statement. "But let's pretend I am interested. What should I do?" Korra asked, Gya glared at a girl with a hand on her hip. She didn't think it was right for Korra to go after Mako. Especially because he has a girlfriend. "Well I read this saga romance and you should do what the main character did. Ride a dragon into battle, burn down the country and jump into a volcano. It was so romantic." Jinora said, Ikki shook her head violently. "You should build a castle in the sky made from clouds! And use the stars as ice cubes in your moon light punch and live forever and ever and ever!" Korra watched Ikki with a strange look. "The volcano is starting to make more sense." Gya walked up, placing her hand on Korras shoulder. "Or maybe you should leave it alone. He has a girlfriend. If you two are meant to be together it will happen eventually." Korra shrugged the girl off and rolled her eyes. Gya frown deepened at her attitude. They heard a laugh and turned to see Pema. "How long we're you standing there?" Korra asked, blushing deeply. "Long enough, you know once I was in the same situation as you. With Tenzin." Gya rolled her eyes, she's heard this story millions of times. "Well what did you do?" Korra asked Gya's mother. "For the longest time nothing. But when it had become to hard to see my soulmate with someone else I held my chin up high and professed my love to him. And the rest is history." Gya looked at Korra who had a weird smile on her face. Gya didn't like whatever it was Korra was thinking.
