Yukari's POV

It was early morning, Zaofu had opened it's domes revealing the dawn of a new day. Everyone had gotten up early since we would begin our first lesson on airbending with Mai-Li and Opal. As breakfast was served, Asami looked around.

"Where's Zenji?" Asami asked.

Then I remembered what happened last night, how he ran passed us covering his reddened face, "It doesn't seem like him to miss out on breakfast like that. By the way, what did you do to make Zenji run off like that?" I asked Bolin.

Bolin gulped his food before shouting, "Me?"

"Well both of you were at the pavilion." Korra said.

"They made a bet that if Zenji could make Mai-Li like him, that he'll be the 'King of getting Chicks'." Mako explained, I sighed. Even so, you can't miss breakfast over one silly mistake, I thought.

"By the way, has anyone seen Chief Beifong?" 

"She's probably off sulking in her room." Korra huffed.

I rolled my eyes and look at her, "Korra."  

She shrugged, "What?"

" I know she has a problem with me, but she had no right to yell at Opal and Mai last night." Su said sternly. Just then, Wei and Wing run into the room, "All set for your power disc game, guys?"

"Yeah, all set to kick Wei's butt." Wing says while Wei takes a few pieces of fruit from the basket, he snatches one off of his hands. 

"I wanna power disc your face." Wei retorts, smacking Wing in the stomach, causing him to choke on the apple, "You should come play with us."

Korra and I glance at each others, "Oh. I don't think we'd be much competition, since we can't metalbend."

"Really. Lin never offered to train you?" Su asked in disbelief.

"Nope. And I guessed I never thought to bring it up because I was learning to airbend, then there was the pro-bending, then I got tied up fighting Equalists."

"Not to mention fighting a giant mass of destruction." I added. 

"It was a busy few months." Korra finished with an awkward smile.

"Well, it's probably for the best. I'm sure Lin would be a horrible teacher." Su chuckled, "As the Avatar and Sansar, you should have mastery over all the elements. I'd be happy to show you the basics."

"Really? That would be great!" Korra exclaimed.

Zenji's POV

I hadn't slept all night ever since my ordeal with Mai-Li. What's wrong with me, am I that pathetic at getting a girl? That box of rocks doesn't even try and her sister falls head over heels for him. Who am I kidding, maybe I'm just bad at sweet-talking.

You're probably right. 

I gasped, turning to my side to see Nian-Nian sitting beside me. Her big beady eyes looking up at mine. I furrowed my brows, "Thanks for rubbing it in." I replied back. 

Hey, I'm just trying to help you. But it seems my help is no longer needed. she said as she begins to hop away. 

"Wait!" I exclaimed, as the spirit halted in place and turns. "What is wrong with me in your opinion? "

Well, you talk in your sleep. You're smell like bean curds when you sweat, not to mention--

"--I didn't mean physically and meant relationship wise. And I don't smell like bean curds, it's just my natural musk that's all."
