An Unexpected Connection- Lin Beifong (The Legend of Korra)

As requested by RcMmCr! Fem Y/N

The sun was setting over Republic City, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. Lin Beifong stood atop the police headquarters, her keen eyes scanning the bustling streets below. As Chief of Police, she took her duty seriously, always on the lookout for any sign of trouble. But today, trouble would find her in an unexpected form.

A gust of wind ruffled her greying hair, and Lin turned, startled to see a young woman floating gracefully onto the rooftop. The newcomer landed with a spin, her long hair whipping around her face as she came to a stop.

"Who are you, and what are you doing up here?" Lin demanded, her voice sharp as she took a defensive stance.

The young woman's eyes widened, and she quickly bowed. "I'm so sorry, Chief Beifong! I didn't mean to startle you. I'm Y/N, an airbender. I was just... practising."

Lin's eyebrows shot up. "Practicing? On my rooftop?"

Y/N blushed, her cheeks turning as pink as the sky. "I know it sounds crazy, but I've been developing a new airbending style, and I needed a good vantage point to test it out."

Intrigued despite herself, Lin crossed her arms. "A new airbending style? What's wrong with the old one?"

Y/N's eyes lit up with excitement. "Nothing's wrong with it! But I've been incorporating elements of break dancing into my bending. It's more fluid, more... unpredictable."

Lin scoffed. "Break dancing? That doesn't sound very practical for combat."

A mischievous grin spread across Y/N's face. "Why don't you be the judge of that, Chief? I could use a sparring partner."

For a moment, Lin was taken aback. This young airbender had guts, she'd give her that. A small smirk tugged at the corner of her mouth. "Alright, kid. Show me what you've got."

Y/N's face lit up with joy. She took a few steps back, giving herself some space. Then, with a deep breath, she began to move.

It started with a simple step, then a spin. But as Y/N gained momentum, her movements became more complex. She dropped to the ground, her legs sweeping in a circular motion as she spun on her hands. With each movement, gusts of wind swirled around her, lifting her into the air and propelling her forward.

Lin watched, her eyes widening as Y/N's dance became more intricate. The young airbender flipped and twisted, her body contorting in ways Lin had never seen before. Each move flowed seamlessly into the next, creating a constant stream of motion and air.

Suddenly, Y/N launched herself high into the air, spinning so fast she became a blur. As she descended, she extended her arms, and a powerful gust of wind shot towards Lin.

Caught off guard, Lin barely had time to raise a metal shield. The force of the wind still pushed her back several feet, her boots scraping against the rooftop.

As the wind died down, Lin lowered her shield to see Y/N landing gracefully in front of her, a hopeful smile on her face.

"So... what do you think?" Y/N asked, slightly out of breath.

Lin stood there for a moment, processing what she had just witnessed. Then, to Y/N's surprise, she let out a small chuckle. "I think... that was actually impressive."

Y/N's face broke into a wide grin. "Really? You mean it?"

Lin nodded, a hint of a smile on her usually stern face. "It's unorthodox, certainly. But effective. Your movements are hard to predict, which could be a significant advantage in a real fight."

Y/N bounced on her toes, barely containing her excitement. "Thank you so much, Chief Beifong! I've been working on this style for months, but I wasn't sure if it was any good."
