Heroes || A LOK Fanfiction

Chapter 13

"You look beautiful darling" Grandma says as we walk through the ballroom.

My dress consisted of Grandma's old dress she wore the night of a dance in Ba Sing Se, where she met Grandpa. I felt proud, with mostly showing my Water Tribe side, it felt different to show off my Earth Kingdom side.

"Thank you Grandma, I love it" I whisper as we find Tenzin and Korra.

"I can't believe this is all for me." Korra smiles, gazing around around the room.

Tarrlock has decided to throw a party for Korra, probably to get her to join his force agaisnt Amon. And honestly, I was ready to join it as well.

I pushed my hair behind my ear and looked at my grandmother, who had also dressed up for the occasion. She stood next to Tenzin, who looked worried.

"I'm not sure what Tarrlok's plotting, but keep your guard up. It's not like him to throw a party just for the fun of it." Tenzin states, making Grandma roll her eyes. "Please, when your father was the Avatar, he couldn't have a party because everyone wanted to kill him!" Grandma grumbles "Let her enjoy it".

Korra and I smile, trying not to laugh. Tenzin on the other hand looks un-amused.

The four of us walk through the crowd. People nod at us in respect, even a few shaking our hands.

"So glad you could make it, Avatar Korra. If you'd excuse us, the city awaits its hero." Tarrlock smiles before leading Korra off.

With a groan, I smile at Grandma before trying to follow Korra.

"Korra, it's my pleasure to introduce Republic City's most famous industrialist, Hiroshi Sato." Tarrlock says as I step next to Korra. There, stands a fat man with a kind smile on his face.

"Nice to meet you" Korra smiles gently.

"We're all expecting great things from you." Hiroshi says before bowing. "Yeah..greatness" Korra says as she looks down. Then, Bolin, Mako and a girl who is very beautiful joins us, hand in hand. "Hi Korra and sidekick" Mako smiles at us, yet Korra looks almost irritated.

"This is my daughter, Asami." Mr. Sato motions, the girl smiles kindly.

"It's lovely to meet you. Mako's told me so much about you two" Asami says, I respond with a nod, but Korra glared at the girl. "Really? Because he hasn't mentioned you at all. How did you two meet?" Korra asks, her eyebrow cocked. "Asami crashed into him on her moped." Bolin says , moving over to me, his hand on my waist.

"What? Are you okay?" Korra asks, concern filling her face.

"I'm fine. More than fine. Mister Sato agreed to sponsor our team; we're back in the tournament!" Mako cheers.

"Hehe, isn't that great?" Bolin asks, before pulling me away from the crowd.

"You know, I'd like to spend some time with my friends" I say as Bolin holds my hand and weaves us through the crowd.

"Dakota Lee!" a voice rings out, making Bolin and I stop.

There, with her arms crossed is Grandma. Uncrossing her arms, he clenches her fists, causing the metal belt on my dress and the cuffs on Bolin to move towards her, yanking us with it.

"What is it Grandma?" I ask as she releases her hold on me, but Bolin stays under her trance.

Her green eyes glare into Bolin's "Who's this?".
