Oh I almost feel bad for them
Just then what feels like an earthquake rips through the island, they all exchange panic looks and Kya rushes over to Lin.
“What was that?!” Kya asks fear visible as she grabs Ikki into her arms.
Lin groans and the fear leaves her face replaced by annoyance. No one seems to notice except Kya who raiser her eyebrow shooting Lin a questioning look.
Lin sighs loudly bride announcing. “My mother.” She rolls her eyes as she says it.
Sure enough as they look over they see Toph dragging Korra by the ear with Asami behind them.
“Ow! Toph im sorry!” Korra shouts but Tophs grip remains strong.
“Lin, twinkle toes the second here just informed me that you’re going to see Suyin for her birthday with, what seems to be everyone but me!” Toph shouts letting go of Korra’s ear.
“Mom you’ve been living god know where for the past ten years, I didn’t even know if you were alive! Let alone did I think to invite you to Su’s fiftieth and it wasn’t meant to be everyone it was Opal.. and then Kya... a..and I-. Whatever it doesn’t even matter. Where have you been!” Lin shouts sputtering and stumbling over ever self in the middle but getting her point across.
Toph stands there awkwardly shifting from one foot to the other. She quickly clears her throat before saying “well I guess we better let bygones be bygones then,huh?”
“Hmm.” Lin growls before looking back at her mother and smiling slightly showing that she has no malice.
“Grandma Toph!” Opal screams running into Tophs arms leaving Bolin behind her dazed.
“Grandma I’m so exited to see you it’s been so long, I’m an air bender now and mom and Aunt Lin are back on good terms, Baatar jr left us and joined Kuvira for a while but now he’s good again, even though he’s still in jail, that’s my boyfriend Bolin and he’s an earth bender too but he’s can lava bend which even you and Aunt Lin can’t do. Aunt Lin’s doing a great job as chief of police, some people say she’s better than you but I don’t know cause I never saw you as chief also Aunt Lin might be dating Kya we’re not really sure but Kya was the one that insisted everyone come to surprise mom, oh you know what would be a surprise if we broke jr out of prison but that would be illegal but you’re not chief anymore so it might work but oh no Aunt Lin’s chief now which she’s really good at did I mention that.
Everyone stands in silence shocked as Opal rambles while Toph stands there without a look of confused but father like she understands.
“Got it. You’re an air bender, my idiot daughters are back to being idiots together, jr isn’t going great, that meat head looking at me like I put the starts in the sky is your boyfriend, Kya and Lin finally got it on and Lin is terrible at being chief cause no ones ever gonna be better at it than me.” Toph recaps checking if she’s left anything out.
“I uh we... we’re not- um ... we just-“ Lin stands there trying to defend herself but ends up babbling like the idiot her mother thinks her to be.
She is stopped when Kya places a hand on her shoulder silently telling it to let it go. Everyone laughs louder than before as Lin stumbles over her words.
Korra laughs the loudest having never seen the esteemed chief of police Lin Beifing at such a loss for words.
Asami gave a knowing chuckle before putting her hands on Lin and Kya’s shoulder. “Yup been there, have fun with that.”
She then turns addressing everyone. “Have fun on your trip guys, I’m so sorry Korra and I can’t make it I’ve got some promising things happening with future industry’s and I know you’d all feel safer with the Avatar protecting the city in your absence. But feel free to use the ship for as long as you like. And give Su and the family a hug from us will you?” She smiles at them as they all share one last goodbye hug.
“Oh and Kya, Lin.. have fun with this.” Asami laughs gesturing between the two women and referring to their current... situation.
“Oh I almost feel bad for them.” Korra chuckles as they walk off hand in hand.
They all walk into the air ship looking around shocked at how fancy it all is.
“We better get used to traveling in style!” Meelo says jumping into the couch.
“You know I’m so used to it I kinda forget that Asami is rich rich.” Bolin says with a dry laugh that earns him a glare from everyone in the room.
“Grandpa Anng had to travel on a stinky Bison I bet he’d be jealous of all this stuff!” Ikki says opening up a fridge looking at the contents.
“Shot gun the biggest room!” Opal shouts dragging Bolin behind her.
“Hey! No, I want to big room!” Toph screams running after them.
“Oooo I wanna see my room!” Jinora says leaving the room with her siblings running behind her.
Except for Rohan who is trying to crawl out of Tenzin’s arms. Tenzin lowers his son onto the ground letting him wander throughout the room.
With all the children gone only Kya, Lin, Izumi and Tenzin remain.
“Hey where’s Bumi?” Kya asks noticing her brothers absence.
“Here I am!!!!” He exclaims dramatically entering the air ship. “And I brought someone with me.”
Everyone’s eyes dash over to Bumi in excitement. Waiting for him to announce who he’s brought. Just as the tension gets so high that Lin is about to break the silence Bumi steps to the side revealing the ‘someone’.
As he does shocked gasps echo through the ship and everyone is silent, even Rohan stops his crawling and looks over to the man standing in the entrance.
