"You're late." I heard my mom say from the kitchen.

"I'm s-sorry," I said walking to the kitchen.

"That is not going to cut it." She started walking to me with her hand raised. She hit me square in the face..... hard.

I fell to the floor.

She walked closer and starting kicking me in the stomach, causing bruises to form over bruises. She was about to kick me again but was interrupted by something scratching at the door. "Get up and get it."

Without hesitating I got up but soon regretted it when it felt like fire was roaring through my stomach. I gather somewhat of strength and walked slowly to the door holding my stomach.

I opened the door and something tackled me to the ground. I yelped in pain when I hit the floor. I started to scream in pain when the thing was on my stomach and ribs, it felt like fire and knives going through my whole body.

"Naga! Get off!" I heard a familiar voice say, "NAGA!" They yelled. It felt like years for the thing to get off.

I opened my eyes and saw.... "Korra!?!?" I said, immediately attempting to stand but failing when pain shot through me.

Korra ran to me and caught me before I hit the ground. "Are you okay?!?! What happened?! She didn't bite you did she!?!?" She said checking me for bite marks. She was about to lift my shirt up but I stopped her and shook my head, "N-no I'm fine."

She shook her head like she knew that lie all too well.

I looked down and saw a HUGE, white, fluffy, dog. It reminded me of my dog Yapa.... SHIT YAPA. I ran to my room and opened the door. Yes, I was in pain but Yapa means more to me. I saw a flash of black run towards the front door and heard a yelp from Korra.

Well, Korra has met Yapa.

I started walking towards the door but was stopped by mom. "Who. Is. That." She said pointing at Korra.

"That i-is m-my friend K-Korra" I looked at Korra and realized that she looked worried. "I'm going to take Yapa on a walk, w-what time do you want me home?"

She sighed, "I am leaving to go on a business trip. If there is one spec of dust in this house, there will be consequences." She gave me a cold, hard glare and walked past me into her room.

I gulped and started breathing again. I walked to Korra and gave her a fake smile.

She shook her head like she knew it was fake, "Want to come to Asami's with me? You can bring her as well if you want." She said pointing at Yapa.

I looked at Yapa and she barked, "Yeah sure, but I want to go somewhere first. Want to come with me?"

She looked at me confused, "Where?"

I smirked, "You will see."

~~~~<~~~>~~~~

We arrived at Bolin's noodle shop.

I opened the door and Yapa ran in and jumped over the counter and landed on Bolin. The people who were eating all looked at the counter the at me.

"Sorry, you all can go back to eating," I said with a shy smile.

They all when back to eating and there conversations.

I walked to the counter and looked over. I saw Yapa on Bolin licking his face.

"Yapa, get off the poor man." Yapa looked at me and then listened.

Bolin got up and wiped the dirt off of him.

"What would you like?" He asked looking at me and Korra.

I chuckled, "Dude I was here like an hour or two ago"

He nodded "What would you like Korra?"

She looked at him, "Umm, surprise me."

He nodded and walked towards the kitchen. 

I heard the bell ring and a huge group of people came in, they were wearing jerseys and such. I looked at Bolin but he was just paying attention to the noodles he was making.

"Hey Korra go sit down I'm doing to go get something from the back," I said jumping over the counter.

She looked at me confused but nodded.

I walked to the back where there were lockers and a lounge. I opened my old locker. My stuff was still in there. I changed into the outfit that was in there, I put my hair into a hair tie and put an apron on. It's time to work.

I walked back outside and saw Bolin making noodles there was a long line. I walked up to the counter, "Hello, what would you like?"

~~~~<~~~>~~~~

I walked outside when Bolin said he would be okay by himself. When I walked outside I saw Mako..... please no, not now.

"Hey, Dy-" He stopped when he saw Korra. "Hey Sapphire."

When he said that, it got harder to breathe, and my legs felt numb. 

Yapa stood in a defence position in front of me.

Korra looked at me probably seeing the fear in my eyes, "Sapphire lets go, Asami is waiting for us." Korra grabbed my wrist.

"Where do you think you are going?" Mako said grabbing my shoulder. 

I stopped not being able to move.
