Korra uses her fiancée's special phone system to call Asami's office. She was worried. Something had definitely happened with Mizu. She could feel it. She just didn't know what it was or why.

"Thank you for calling Future Industries. How may I help you?" The executive assistant says.

"Uh, hello? Miss Chelse? It's me Korra. Is Asami there?" The Avatar asks.

Chelse furrows her brow. "No, she left a few hours ago. Did you need something?"

Korra swallows then inhales slowly. "Is she alright?"

Chelse lowers her eyes. She'd heard first-hand how things had been going between the two lovebirds. "Yeah, she seemed to be in good spirits today."

The Avatar gulps. "And Mizu?"

The fire essence shakes her head and smirks sadly. Korra was definitely growing as an Avatar. "You felt it too, huh?"

Korra nods. "Yeah, a little while ago. What's going on with her?"

Chelse is silent for a moment as she takes a seat behind her desk. "She and Asami need to merge as soon as possible."

Korra averts her gaze. "I know. But, I-I'm not really sure how to help them do that."

Chelse furrows her brow. "Asami hasn't told you yet?"

Korra rolls her eyes somberly. She hated the space they'd forced themselves into over the last two weeks. "Uhh...no...we, I haven't really given her the chance to say anything. That's gonna change though. I plan on talking with her in the next few days about what's happened to me."

Chelse releases a worried breath. "You might not have a few days."

"What do you mean?" The Inuit asks.

The fire essence closes her eyes. "Mizu...(slow gulp)...needs help. She's losing it. And I can only think of a few reasons why. This is her first time holding the balance and her first time being in a human form for this long. She doesn't understand what that means. Her essence memory isn't enough to get her through this. She's emotionally erratic and unstable and there's no telling what she'll do."

Korra swallows hard as her chest starts to ache again. "Do you know what happened to her earlier?"

Chelse sits back. "I know she opened a dimensional door. Which means she tried to talk to the Mothers."

The Avatar furrows her brow. "What? Why?"

Chelse shakes her head. "I honestly don't know, but I could guess it has something to do with you. Look you need to help them merge as soon as possible. Mizu told Asami that they need to...do a strenuous activity with you for 24 hours straight while they switch out and sync up."

"Strenuous...activity?" Korra asks already getting an idea of what that meant.

"Sex, kid. They need to be intimate with you. It's the only thing that they're both emotionally sure..." The fire essence says before she's interrupted.

"Uhh, I...uhh, I'm not...ready to...do that. I still can't see and I..."

"Well, you need to get ready, because if you don't Mizu could lose what little control she has over herself. She needs Asami's nature more than she realizes. And Asami needs her too. It's my fault they were split up, but I can't do anything to help them. You're the only one who can do it." Chelse says somberly. "I'm sorry." She coughs roughly a few times.

"You okay?" Korra asks.

Chelse nods and clears her throat. "Yeah, I'm fine. Look, Mizu and I may be opposing elements but I know what she's going through. I didn't have much control either when I first crossed over. I'm the reason the dinosaurs went extinct."
