Chapter 55: A New Airbending Master

(One week later)

(Republic City)

Y/N's P.O.V

It's been a week since the battle with Zaheer and the Red Lotus.

Zaheer and his crew are now in jail and they're never getting out.

I took away both Ghazan and Ming'wan's Bending.

Now, none of them are a threat to anyone.

Though Korra was badly hurt due to the poison and she's now in a wheelchair.

Anyway, today is a special day as Jinora is becoming an Airbending Master today.

Right now I'm going to see her in room.

Just then I see dad coming over to me.

Y/N: Hey, dad.

Tenzin: Hi. How's Korra doing?

Y/N: I'm not sure. I'm just gonna check on her now, she's with Asami. I just hope what happened doesn't shake her confidence as the Avatar.

Tenzin: I'm sure it won't. Korra's strong. She'll come back from this. All you need to do is support her.

Y/N: Yeah, I guess you're right. Hopefully I don't end up pushing her away. I mean she's in a delicate place right now.

Tenzin: You won't. She needs you more than you know, Y/N.

Y/N: Thanks, dad. So, how's Jinora feeling?

Tenzin: She's okay, just a little nervous but she's excited. Your sister's been looking forward to for a long time. 

Y/N: I bet. And I know. I remember she asked me when she'd get her tattoos. I told her to be patient.

Tenzin: Well, she was.

I chuckle.

Y/N: Yeah, she was?

I smile.

Y/N: Well, I better check in on Korra and Asami.

Tenzin: Okay.

I walk off to go and see Korra.

(Five minutes later)

I make it to Korra's room and lightly knock on the door before walking in.

Y/N: Hey, girls.

Asami stands up.

Asami: Hey, Y/N.

She comes over to me.

Y/N: How she doing?

Asami: She's okay, or as good as she can be given what happened.

Y/N: Okay. Thanks for helping her, Asami. I appreciate it.

She holds my hand.

Asami: Anything for you.

After that she leaves the room.

I go over to Korra and kneel down infront of her.

Y/N: Hey, babe.

Korra: Hi.

Y/N: You look beautiful.

She smiles.

Korra: Thanks. You look handsome as always.

Y/N: Thanks.

I sigh.

Y/N: Korra, it's only been a week. No-one expects you to be back to your old self right away.

Korra: I know. I just feel so...

Y/N: Useless.

She sighs.

Korra: Yeah.

Y/N: Yeah. I'm sorry. I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better.

She grabs my hand. 

Korra: Just you being here is making me better. Having you close has always helped me when I've felt like this.

Y/N: That's good. I just want you to know if you wanna talk about anything, I'm always here.

She smiles.

Korra: Thank you, babe.

Y/N: You're welcome.

I lean in and we briefly kiss before pulling away.

Y/N: Okay. You ready?

Korra: Yeah.

I stand up and wheel her out of the room.

(Ten minutes later)

We make it to the staircase of the temple where dad, President Raikoz Fire Lord Zuko and other's are waiting for us.

Her parents comes over and greet her first.

Tenzin: You're looking stronger everyday, Korra.

Raiko: I'd like to officially welcome you back to Republic City. I know that the last time we saw each other it didn't end on the best terms, but I want to thank you for taking down those Red Lotus terrorists.

Korra looks down.

Y/N: We should go inside.

Ikki and Meelo come over.

Ikki: I can help.

Meelo: I wanna ride with Korra. Jinora's already inside it smells like show trees.

Ikki: Sandalwood, Meelo.

We go over to the stairs.

Lin: I got this.

She uses Earthbending to create a platform.

She then looks at Korra.

Lin: Hang in there, kid.

Lin takes us up to the entrance of the temple.

(Fifteen minutes later)

The ceremony for Jinora is now about to start.

Dad steps forward.

Tenzin: Jinora, come forward.

Jinora walks forward and kneels down.

Tenzin: Today we welcome the second Airbending Master in a generation and I couldn't be more proud of my daughter.

He looks out to the crowd.

Tenzin: When the existence of our people was threatened, when the Avatar's life hung in the balance, Jinora never gave up hope. Thanks to her leadership I see a very bright future for the Air Nation. Of course, there'd be no Air Nation without Avatar Korra. She opened the portals and somehow the world began anew for us. And she was even willing to lay down her own life in order to protect ours. There's no way we could ever repay her for all she's done, but we can follow her example of service and sacrifice. So while she recuperates, the Air Nation will reclaim it's nomadic roots and roam the Earth, but unlike our ancestors we will serve people of all nations. Working wherever there is corruption and discord, to restore balance and peace.

He looks over.

Tenzin: Avatar Korra, I vow that we will do everything in our power to follow in your footsteps and bring harmony to the world.

He bows to her.

Tenzin: Now, let us anoin the Master who will help lead us in our new path.

He pulls off Jinora's hood to reveal the Airbending Master tattoo.

Jinora stands to reveal the tattoo on her arms

Everyone starts clapping.

The Air Nation is back and the world has been changed forever.

(A/N: Well, that's it for Book Three. Next up, is Book Four, Balance and I hope you enjoy it.)
