Battle of the Fire Birds... Chapter 7

PS : Watch out for errors; I didn't had time to check for errors. This is the final episode of "Battle of the fire birds"

After many hours of long deep restful sleep they woke up and found that storm had faded away. They gathered up all the new found gear, fixed the truck and started heading towards the marked location of the map. It was a longer drive than they expected through the desolate desert landscape.

.... Three hours had gone by since they left the facility,

Korra kept munching on a beef jerky while gazing at the endless desert. Asami kept on driving steadily. Both of them had kept very quiet since they left the facility.

"Night in Kalahari lasts for so many days... we have dim light from the third sun for merely four hours and then the darkness kept coming back..." said Korra.

"I know that but I am thankful to the cold nights, it's so much comforting than the scorching days..." said Asami.

"We are almost there..." said Korra while starring at the navigation screen.

"According to the map we are there but I see nothing...." Asami said with a slight panic in her tone.

"Let's just drive a Little bit further more..." said Korra.

Several dim lights began to appear in the horizon.

"Alright... I think I see it..." said Asami as she accelerates the truck further; driving towards the lights.

In few minutes time they have reached the destination.

"That's not a town..." said Korra while starring at the tall communication tower.

"Looks like this map is wrong... they have marked it as a town but it is not..." said Asami turning down the engine.

"Looks like the communication tower is completely out..." said Korra while looking at the scanner.

"Let's see if we could get this thing running..." said Asami.

Both of them got off the truck and armed themselves. Korra grabbed a machine gun, Asami took her favorite shot gun and holstered it on her back then equipped herself with few side arms and the magnum.

"Alright..." said Asami and locked down the truck.

Korra switched on the flash light and gave it to Asami and she turned one another flash light.

They slowly walked towards the tall tower; there is a small control room beneath it. Korra checked the door.

"Locked as usual..." She said while pulling out the hacking device.

"Time to do your magic..." said Asami.

In few minutes time she managed to open the door. They walked in to the small control room and found that the power is working well. After running numerous diagnostics on the system Korra figured out that the main cable is disconnected on the tip of the tower.

"There is nothing we can do from here... I am going to climb up there and connect it..." said Korra while getting off the operator chair.

"No... wait... I'll go... you stay down here and see if everything is alright..." said Asami.

"You sure you'll be alright up there...?" Korra asked with her brows raised.

"Sure... I'll connect it, I don't have vertigo, trust me..." said Asami with a smile.

Asami grabbed a tool kit from the control room locker and quickly walked outside. Korra followed her outside.

"Alright... You wait there in the control room, I think it will take few minutes to climb to the top..." said Asami while looking up at the tower.
