The sun began to rise starting another day. Yuna's eyes opened from the sun shining in her face. She looked around, but her vision was still fuzzy. She cleaned her eyes and looked around. Yuna was still outside, in front of the building where Korra was taken, where her friends and herself was attacked by a man, a man more powerful than the Avatar. She looked behind her and saw Mako. His hands placed on his stomach, back on the ground, snoring as usual. Yuna crawled to Mako and began calling his name. She shoved his shoulder around and he finally woke up. He looked confused, like waking up after a party and not knowing what happened the night before. He tried standing on his own, but pain seeped into his stomach and he fell down onto his back once again. He cried out in pain.

"Stay here I'll be right back!"

Yuna lifted herself from the ground, she felt amounts of pain, but she didn't care. She would get her friend back home where he would be much more safer. Yuna ran towards the nearest docks. She found a bucket of fresh water which was going to be used to clean, but she took it for more important needs. She got back to Mako and began healing him. She wasn't an expert or anything at this, but she did what she could do. After a while the amount of pain began to decrease in Mako's abdomen. He was able to stand without falling back in pain. Yuna helped him walk back to Air Temple Island. Mako's foot was sprained, she couldn't have healed it, and Mako still felt pain in his stomach, but it wasn't as much as it was before Yuna healed him. Once again Mako's arm was around Yuna's shoulder and she grabbed him by the waist and they proceeded back to Air Temple Island.

"She's really gone is she?" Mako said clearing the silence as they walked.

Yuna didn't know what to say. Mako was Korra's boyfriend, he needed her, he needed Korra by his side. By the sound of Mako's voice, pain, suffering, and anxiety was filled within him.

"Mako.... We'll find her... She can't be gone.. She just can't!"

Yuna enlightened the mood a bit. Mako managed to make a smile, but it was difficult at a time like this. Mako desperately wanted Korra back within his arms. He wanted her safe, back, and out of the clutches of the man.

"He's going to pay! Next time I see him, he's going to regret taking her!" Marlo's voice began to anger.

Yuna was quiet. She knew Mako was suffering without Korra. He would do anything in his power to bring back the girl he loved.

They continued walking in silence. The sun rose even higher, where everyone would be awake, and hopefully find them. They didn't want to walk anymore. Yuna had most of Mako's weight on her shoulder. Yuna was a skinny, boney, girl, she couldn't hold a lot of weight. Mako was muscular, he weight even more than Yuna. Yuna didn't care, she had to do whatever she could to bring mako back and get healed.

The continued for an hour, Yuna began growing tired by the minute. She couldn't anymore, hold Mako up, but Mako couldn't move without keeping his balance. She had to do this. Her breathing increased, she puffed loudly, her muscles began to tense. She was getting exhausted, every step she took made her grow more tired. Mako noticed this, he didn't like Yuna struggling for him.

"Yuna stop! Her sit down!" Mako said pointing to the sidewalk.

"No... I'm ok... Really we don't have much to go..." Yuna said.

Mako didn't believe her. He could her by the sound of her voice that she would pass out soon if she didn't rest.

"Yuna! We could spare 10 minutes... Please sit!"

Yuna didn't like it when people begged her to do stuff. She never did, whenever someone did, she would do it right away. Yuna nodded and she slowly sat Mako on the sidewalk. She proceeded sitting down afterwords. Yuna was exhausted, she never felt so relieved in her life. Yuna laid her head on Mako's shoulder and he put his arm around her.
