After Tenzin stated that Korra, Bato and I would be going back to the South Pole, we were able to collect our things, along with Naga.


"I just got use to showing off my shoulders" Korra moped as we caught a ferry to lead us towards Air Temple island.


"Me too, and it's been so nice seeing my Grandmother" I sigh.


"It's just not safe for you two here" Tenzin states, my slum expression continuing.


Once we reach the island, Grandma was the first one to find us. "Dakota! Oh darling are you alright?" she asks, pulling me into an embrace.


"Don't worry Grandma I'm fine, I just got a little caught up with the law" I smile weakly "and I found Korra".


Her eyes turn to Korra, they widen for a second "Korra?" she whispers. Korra and I look at each other and she quickly rubs her eyes before looking at Korra. "I'm sorry Korra, you've just grown up so much" Grandma spoke before quickly embracing her.


"It's an honor to see you again Master Mika" Korra says, causing a small smile to form onto her face.


"Hello Mika" Tenzin says, nodding his head at her respectively. 


"I think I'm going to make noodles for dinner tonight" Mika stated, causing Tenzin to frown. "I'm sorry Mika, but Bato, Dakota and Korra are leaving tonight".


Grandma's face turned into a frown "You must be joking, please tell me you've finally grasped the concept of jokes".


Frowning, Tenzin responded with "No Mika, it's not safe for them here".


"That's a load of-!" she pauses, looking down as  tears escaped her eyes.


Suddenly Meelo, Ikki and Jinora appear, along with Bato at their side.


"Korra! Dakota!" they cheer, causing Grandma to wipe away her tears.


" Are you guys coming to live with us on the island?" Ikki asks, a large smile on her face.


Bato steps next to me, and wraps an arm around my shoulder. Korra on the other hand, puts a hand on Ikki's shoulder. "No, I'm sorry Ikki, we have to go home now" Korra says before turning and starting to walk towards the boat.


I send a glance to Grandma before walking with Bato.


"Wait. I have done my best to guide Republic City toward the dream my father had for it, but you're right. It has fallen out of balance since he passed. I thought I should put off your training in order to uphold his legacy, Republic City needs its Avatar once again." Tenzin says before adding "You'll also need friends who will fight along side you."


"Yes! Thank you! You're the best!" Korra calls out as she hugs Bato and I. "Grandma!" I cheer as I pull Bato with me to hug her.
