Delia’s son was a fighter, Giovanni would give him that. His two friends, former gym leaders, of all people, just needed a few weapons waved in their faces and they fell into line easily. Ash seemed to either be oblivious to what a gun was, an idiot who didn’t care, or a psychic who knew … Continue reading
Sleep did not come easily to Korra that night. Or at all, really. She tried. Who wouldn’t try to sleep when they had to deal with resisting bloodbending or avoiding explosions the next day? But every little noise jolted her thoughts away from rest and back to just how irritated she was. How dare Firelord … Continue reading

She gripped Absol’s harness and walked forward, her weak muscles quivering in protest. At least Pierce understood her, even if no other Rockets did. He knew better than to argue … Continue reading
Tomas had not gone by the name Tom-Tom in decades, and he vowed to keep it that way. It was difficult enough re-establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with in the Fire Nation. It would have been even more difficult if he’d kept that childish nickname. And now he was one step closer … Continue reading
Fuse was pleasantly surprised at the courtesy of the Firelord’s guards. She’d been guarded many times in her life, and she knew the type.
