A Time of Change {ATLA & LOK}

Chapter 29 - The Portal

Talia's POV

While my head was down, Unalaq must have decided that my bending was a threat, and he knocked me out using his water bending. As I came too I saw we had landed by the tree of time, where Vaatu was imprisoned, where I first came through, and where I was trying to get too. I was in the arms of the dark spirit that had hold of me before. The girl was with Unalaq in a spiral of dark water like I was briefly previously. The purple however was creeping up her body, I could feel the shift in her spirit, her soul, it didn't seem good. Unalaq moved the water, and thus the girl to the side of the time tree. Vaatu said something to someone who was the other side, they were talking but I couldn't quite hear exactly what they were saying. At one point in there discussion the air girl's spirit shifted again, my guess was that Unalaq made the purple encase more of her body. 

The spirit holding me moved around the tree, the girl back in the hands of her Dragon-Fly bunny companion, we were following another girl, the one Vaatu and Unalaq were obviously talking too a minute ago. She was in particle water tribe clothing, not meant to cover up a lot, so obviously for travels and not for wearing when in the southern or northern tribe. She approached the closed portal, the other already open. She reached the portal, placing her hand on the dome. It glowed a bright light, not dissimilar to my light, spirit energy was coming off of it, and a sort of wind as well. A purple beam shot out the top, which then multiplied into three. The girl's eyes started to glow a white, like Dad's did when he went into the avatar state, I only saw it once. Did that mean she was the avatar? but what about dad? I was confused, but decided I would find answers soon. The three beams conjoined together to form a larger single beam that shot up, a smaller spiral of the beam circled around it before it stabilised like the other portal. As it did this the tree of time where Vaatu was imprisoned started turning red from the bottom up, it was creeping and growing from the roots up to the dead branches at the top. It glowed like the portal before letting out an explosive ring if spirit energy that shot out in all directions, the dark spirits seeming to get stronger and grow from this. 

the girl turned back to us and said "Now let Jinora go" so I'm guessing that the girl I was with in the library is Jinora, I still to the side in the other larger flying spirit's arms. Unalaq turned around and water bent at her, hitting her arm, when she cried out as it seemed to break off in spirit light before reforming. I gasped and struggled in the spirits arms, I had to help her. 

"You should have come through the portal. Then you could do this" Unalaq said as he continued to water bend at her. The girl was doing well to defend herself moving out the way and dodging to the best of her ability. I focused on my light, I used it to shine a bright light around me, temporarily blinding the spirit before it dimmed, which allowed me enough space to twist and punch a powerful blast of air at the spirit to help the girl. I jumped out the spirits arms and landed standing ready to help the girl. 

However, I heard a scream, I turned seeing Jinora being taken away by Furry-Foot. She cried out "Korra!" so i'm guessing that was the older girl. 

In return Korra got up to go after her however was hit with another blast of water, she got up and started running after Jinora, before being hit by one of the dark guardian spirits. I decided to go after Jinora, Korra seemed to greatly care for her in a sisterly way and didn't want anything to happen to her. I jumped up into the air quickly flying after her, maintaining a distance so I could still see them but not be sensed or seen by Furry-Foot.
