Korra takes a deep breath then lowers her eyes. The thought of her family and friends reliving the past year made her sick to her stomach. There had to be another way. There just had to be.
Her wife would meet Lau today. Asami told her everything that happened between them. She knew exactly how he'd gotten so close to her. That slimy cabbage slug pretended he was scared and innocent. Asami didn't have any reason not to believe him. She's always been trusting like that.
Korra tightens her hand into a fist and exhales slowly from her nose. He'd fooled them all.
She couldn't let Koh hurt them again. She just couldn't, not just for their sakes but for his. She places her hand against her heart. For better or worse he was their child, even if he didn't know it yet. Things were so messed up. Korra shakes her head as she thinks over what happened between her and the Mothers.
"Our word is law. Our law is eternal. We are absolute." The gigantic deities had said as they squeezed the life from her body.
Korra averts her eyes. Her mind flashes back to seeing Asami fall into the spirit portal with their kids. That was something she'd never get over. Part of her wished that the Mothers had crushed her and been done with it. She knew how much her wife loved her but that sacrifice took things to another level. Asami wasn't just willing to die for her; she was willing to kill for her too.
She understood why Asami wanted to keep the kids inside her body. The heiress knew what was coming and she didn't want to suffer the pain of seeing their children's faces.
Korra remembered the green light shining from her daughter's body. She wasn't sure which one of them was Koh until that moment. In those few precious seconds his past didn't matter. She would have done anything to hold that little girl in her arms again.
The Mother of Faces was the fool for not paying attention to her child. "Maybe if you weren't so absolute your son wouldn't be trying to kill you. You don't listen." She'd told the Mothers that she didn't want to do this anymore and she meant it. She was tired of being toyed with. "Why'd you send me back here?"
She reclines against the headboard and looks down at her legs. The Mother's weren't kidding when they said this was punishment. They'd sent her back to her darkest moment and watching everyone in her life get tortured again was enough to push her over the edge.
But she couldn't deny that things felt different this time around. For better or worse she was home. She was still in pain, but she knew she'd get through it. Even before Gran put that potion on her legs the physical therapy was working out. So regardless of what happened, she'd be able to walk on her own again.
But she wouldn't have gotten that far without her best friend, lover, and partner. "Asami." Korra whispers. The thought of falling in love with her wife all over again brought a small smile to her face. Asami told her the exact moment when she knew Korra was the one. If things went the way they did last time then she would know exactly what to...
Blue eyes widen as the reality of the situation hits her mind. Korra gulps. Would her wife still love her if things changed?
Chelse told her to let things play out and do what she did before. Maybe she should. But Chelse had no idea what was coming or how many people would die because of the earth essence. She had no idea how much suffering Asami would go through.
