[A few weeks later; Republic City Gym] Asami: *shaking Alee's hand* Hi, I'm Asami Sato. Alee: *shaking her hand back* Alee, the moral compass of the Avatar. Korra: *looking towards Marko* Bolin: Okay, so Fire Ferrets. We have a semi-final match coming up. I'm sure we're all ready. Korra: Heck yeah, we are! [Later that day; On a boat heading for Air Temple Island] Korra: I noticed you were shaking Asami's hand a little too long. Alee: That makes no sense. Korra: *blushes as she gets defensive* You make no sense! Alee: You're so childish. Korra: So I was wondering. If I… hypothetically wanted to go out with you. Would you say yes? Alee: *blushes deeply* Where did this come from? Korra: *smiles as she looks into his eyes and places her hand over his* I mean… We do like each other a lot and we… Alee: Korra… Are you trying to make Mako jealous or something? Korra: *she looks away quickly before letting go of his hand* Forget I said anything, okay? Alee: *nods before walking away* [A few days later, after the Fire Ferrets Semifinal win] Bing: *outside of the dressing room* I was wondering. How come you don't bend fire? Alee: Well, my mom had this birth defect where she could only bend lightning. I also got that defect too. Bing: Smart guy. You don't want to hurt people. (Meanwhile, in the dressing room) Mako: *packing up his stuff in his locker* Korra: *stands behind him* Mako… I want to talk to you. Mako: *turns around to face her* Yeah? Korra: *takes a deep breath* I really like you and I think that we'd be great together! Mako: *shocked by her proposal but shakes his head* I'm sorry, Korra, but I'm with Asami. I can't just up and leave her. Asami: *enters the room and goes straight to hugging Mako* Korra: *steps away before standing next to Bolin* Bolin: Dating problems? Korra: *nods sadly* Bolin: Why don't you date the next guy you like? Korra: I tried that already but… Bolin: *places his finger on top of her lips* I mean, like tell him, tell him. Be honest and put your heart into it. Korra: Hmm… I see. *she leaves the room and sees Alee and Bing? Bing: You ready to head back to the Temple? Korra: *shakes her head* I wanted to stay in town for a while with Alee. Alee: *raises his eyebrow* Huh… Korra: *holds both of his hands before she runs away with him* Come on, let's go! Bing: What the Heck am I supposed to do?! *sighs* I officially hate couples. [Later that day in a ramen noodle store] Alee: *slurping his noodles* You know that I like ramen noodles a lot. Korra: *places the locks of her hair behind her ear as she gets ready to eat* Alee: *blushes at the sighs of Korra shifting her hair* So… Why are we here whilst there are hot rooms waiting for us at the Temple? Korra: *slurps her noodles* I wanted to go out with you. Alee: *smiles* You could have just said so if you wanted to hang out… Korra: *she blushes as she looks at him* No, I mean… dating. Alee: *nearly chokes on his noodles as his face gets more and more red* You're just beyond to make Mako jealous again… Korraz *wipes off the sauce on his cheek* I mean it. Just you and me. *she cups his face as she kisses him on the lips* Alee: *closes his eyes as he kisses her back before he pushes her away at arms length* I'm sorry I just can't. Korra: *she pushes off his hand* You're so frustrating! But I guess I'm the fool who thought too highly. *she storms out of the store furiously* Alee: *looks downwards frustratedly* [A few days later] Korra: *enters the locker room pissed off as she only sees Mako inside* Mako: *looks at Korra* Hey are you doing good? Korra: *she speaks nonchalantly* Why the heck would you care. Marko: *he gets frustrated from her attitude* Okay, you gotta calm down. Korra: *she walls closer to him* You wanna see me calm down? *she holds the the collar of Mako and kisses him on the lips* Mako: *shocked at first before he kisses her back* Bing: *opens the door and sees the two of them mildly amused* Man. So this is what city life does to poor souls? Mako: *pulls back* It's not what it looks like. Korra: *let's go of him* It really wasn't. Bing: You two have stuff to worry about before your own weird thing. Bolin: *enters the room* Bolin has arrived. *he looks around the room* Hmmm… Who died? Where's Alee? *he gasps loudly* Did Alee die? Korra: No, he didn't die. He just stayed at Air Temple Island. Mako: The fact is we're here to see our next competition. In the finals. [They all take a look at the arena fighting platform, and before they can even see any action, the game ends in the blink of an eye] Mako: Those are the Wolfbats. The reigning probending champions.
