Korra swallows hard and exhales through her nose as she stares at the spirit portal. She couldn't get distracted by Raiko's message. Things weren't bad enough for her to get involved. She looks down at her wife. Her first priority was taking care of Asami. "Jinora, let's go."

The young airbender nods then enters the portal.

Korra lifts Asami a little higher so her head could rest on her shoulder. She exhales roughly then steps into the portal. The Inuit furrows her brow a second later when she finds herself still in the physical world. She turns around and tries to enter the portal again. "What?" She walks through the portal a few more times.

Jinora taps her foot as she waits for Korra and Asami to come through. They were right behind her. After a few minutes, she shakes her head and goes back through. Her eyebrows raise when she sees Asami lying on the ground. Jinora checks out the area. "Korra? Korra are you here?"

The caramel skinned Avatar walks through the portal again. "Yeah, I'm here."

Jinora furrows her brow. "What's going on? Why haven't you and Asami…"

"Because we can't. I even tried to go through by myself. It's not working." Korra says.

Jinora lowers her eyes deep in thought. She looks over at Asami. "Energy."

"What?" Korra asks.

"The energy flowing through your bodies. The spirit portal can't adjust to it right now. That's gotta be it. Maybe if you…" Jinora says.

The Avatar sighs and shakes her head. She'd had about all she could take. "Jinora, go to the library and see what the owl has to say, okay? I'll take Asami back to Future Industries. Meet us there if you find anything."

The airbending master furrows her brow. "I-I will. Are you alright?"

Korra sits on the ground next to her wife and lowers her head. "I'll be fine. Go."

Jinora moves towards the Avatar wanting to comfort her. "Korra…"

"I said go." The water tribe woman huffs.

Jinora nods and steps into the portal. "Okay."

Korra swallows, takes her wife's hand and shakes her head. She imagined hearing Asami's voice in her head. "Yeah, I'm tired too. It's like we can't seem to catch a break." Korra looks down at the heiress' face. "I'm sorry."

"I know how you feel. It was rough for me too." A strangely familiar voice startles the Avatar.

"Who's there?" Korra says cradling the heiress in her arms.

A strange blue mist wafts from behind the spirit portal. A beautiful brown skinned woman dressed in blue walks toward the Avatar. Her hair was long and dark. She wore a sprocket shaped betrothal necklace around her neck. And her eyes were…grey. The woman squats in front of the Avatar and looks down at Asami. Korra furrows her brow. The woman takes a deep breath, her eyes turn light blue, and then she smiles. "Still beautiful. You'll wake up soon. I promise."

The Inuit's eyes widen. She gulps realizing who it was. This was completely different than what she felt with her alternates. "Y-you're…"

The woman nods and meets her gaze. "You need to talk to Lin before this gets out of hand."

Korra shakes her head in disbelief. It was her…only she was older, taller, and more muscular. And there was a long scar down her right arm. Korra had so many questions. "I…wh…how…"
