Chapter 78: Confronting President Raiko

(The next day)

Y/N's P.O.V

Today Korra, dad, Tahn and I will be going into the Spirit World to check on things.

We'll be taking other Airbender's with us for back-up.

Tahn and I walk out of the temple.

Tahn: So, how's wedding planning going?

Y/N: Pretty good. Though it's probably gonna slow down giving what we're doing. Oh, actually I have something to ask me.

Tahn: Okay, what is it?

Y/N: Well, I was hoping you'd be my best man on my wedding day.

He stops and looks at me.

Tahn: Wait, seriously?

Y/N: Yeah. I want you by my side when I get married.

He smiles.

Tahn: Yeah, of course. I'd be honoured.

He and I hug.

After that we go to join the others and get onto Oogi.

(Ten minutes later)

Dad flies Oogi towards the Spirit World and he flies goes through it.

Once we're in the Spirit World we see that the beautiful field Korra and I were in is ruined.

Korra gasps.

Korra: Oh, no.

Meelo: What a Spirity letdown! Thanks for waking me up for nothing, Ikki!

Oogi lands down in the field and we drop down off Oogl.

Korra, dad and I walk off and look around.

Y/N: I can't believe this happened.

Korra: I don't understand. When Y/N and I, the flowers were all blooming. There were Spirit's everywhere and now...

Tenzin: They're gone.

Dad steps forward.

Tenzin: I'm so sorry, you two. I know this place is special to both of you.

Korra tears up.

Korra: It really was.

I pull her into a hug.

Y/N: Hey, hey.

I gently rub her back as we hug.

Y/N: It's okay, baby. I'm sure it'll grow back and it'll look just as beautiful as it did when we first came here.

She nods.

Korra: I hope so.

She wipes away her tears.

Korra: I'm sorry for getting upset.

Tenzin: It's okay, Korra. You don't need to apologise.

After that we go over to Jinora and Kai.

Kai: How did this happen? Who's powerful enough to do this to thr Spirit World?

Jinora: Only the Spirit's are.

Kai: But it doesn't make sense. Why would they destroy their own environment?

Y/N: To protect themselves. It's obviously a warning.

Korra: I think the Spirit's are trying to tell us they don't want humans to step foot in their realm ever again.

We look over to see Ikki touching a plant.

My eyes widen.

Y/N: Ikki, don't touch that!

It quickly wraps around her forearm.

Ikki: Ah! Korra, get it off me!

Korra rushes over and uses Firebending to free her.

The plnats start attacking us.

Tahn: Get off me!

Kai: Help!

Tenzin: Everyone, back to Oogi!

Jinora uses her glider and gets Kai to Oogi.

The rest of our way through the plants to get to Oogi.

We get on Oogi

Tenzin: Yip, yip!

Oogi flies into the air and flies back through the Spirit Portal.

Dad looks at us.

Tenzin: Everyone alright?

Korra: Uh, Tenzin? We've got another problem.

We look down to see the United Forces going towards the Spirit Portal.

Y/N: Oh, shit. That's not good.

(Fifteen minutes later)

So, it turns out the Raiko ordered General Iroh to guard the Spirit Portal.

Korra is pissed and we're going to see Raiko along with dad.

Oogi lands down and Korra immediately drops down.

Korra: Raiko, we need to talk!

Wenyan comes over to us.

Wenyan: The President is extremely busy. If you want to speak with him, you'll need to make an appointment like...

Korra uses Metalbending to shut him up.

Korra: Shut up.

We walk over to Raiko.

Korra: The Spirit Portal is sacred land, Raiko...

Y/N: You can't just turn it into a military base.

Tenzin: Call off the United Forces.

Raiko: I most certainly will not.

Korra: If you don't, you're looking at another Spirit crisis on your hands. Who's gonna vote for you then?

Raiko: We wouldn't have a crisis if you hadn't created that portal in the first place.

Y/N: She didn't do it on purpose, Raiko!

Korra: Yeah. Kuvira's Spirit weapon was out of control. I had to save the city.

Raiko: And in doing so, you destroyed these poor people's homes. Entire neighbourhood's were leveled in the blink of an eye.

He turns to the people behind him.

Raiko: The Avatar and Air Master Y/N claim to have your best interests at heart... but while you were all returning to the city and picking up the pieces, guess where they were? On vacation!

He points at her necklace.

Raiko: And getting engaged!

Korra: No, it wasn't like that.

Man: What kind of Avatar takes a vacation in the middle of a crisis?

Woman: Disgraceful.

Boy: Avatar Korra ruined my life.

Raiko looks at her.

Raiko: Because of your recklessness and selfishness, these people's lives have been shattered and as usual, I'm left to deal with the consequences.

Asami stands with us.

Asami: You have some nerve for such a coward.

Y/N: Yeah, I mean while we were fighting to protect this city, you were hiding on Air Temple Island! My brother and I almost died bring down that Airship.

Asami: And Korra almost died to stop that Spirit weapon of Kuvira's.

Tenzin: That's right. If it hadn't been for Korra and Y/N, we'd be living under Kuvira's dictatorship right now.

Korra lowers her head.

Korra: It's okay. Let's go.

She walks away and we follow her.

I can't believe Raiko, after failing this city he's still acting like the big hero.
