Asami's Pov
We sat next to the fire, finally eating actal food.
Asami: This is the best sandwich I have ever tasted in my whole life.
Korra: You know they're a day old, but when you are starving, everything tastes like fine cuisine.
Asami: Yeah, I wouldn't mind normal food. I have a craving for some skewers. They are my favorite.
Korra: well you won't see skewers for a while. We are lucky enough to have airplane food, even if it tastes like an old sock and the island has fresh water. It is like we won the lottery.
Asami: We could still drink rain water, right?
Korra: We could, but it would be inefficient. Not to mention that there could be no rain for weeks
Asami: We would be dead in a few days!
Korra: Naw, we could still desalinate sea water
Asami: ugh, I remember that from chem class. Wait, thats heating up the water and collecting the salt, right?
Korra: Oh, you actually remember something from school.
Asami: rude, anyways it doesn't matter. I don't know how to actually do it.
Korra: well, the easiest way is to get two different sized bowls and a plastic wrap. Then you put the small bowl into the bigger one, cover everything with the plastic wrap and place a small stone on top of the foil dips in the center. We'd put it under the sun and as condensation forms, freshwater droplets will drip from the plastic wrap into the cup. Easy but it takes time. Luckily, we don't have to do this.
Asami: and how the fuck do you remeber that shit by heart.
Korra: it is a basic, pretty face.
Asami: Basic my ass, it is far from basic and you know
Korra: I was in the scouts for a while and because of that I had multiple occasions to spend a couple of hour alone in the woods.
Asami: hmm, that explains a lot. The campfire, now the salt water thing. Maybe you are a teenage version of Bear Grylls after all!
Korra: I am not a teenager and what is with that look? Don't you think you are on vacation, princess. You can still move your ass and help me with this mess.
I rolled my eyes at her comment.
Korra: any who do you fill any better?
Asami: a lot better, thanks
Korra: no problem and good that is good
Asami: can I ask yo something
Korra: hit me
Asami: Did you really have to undress me?
Korra: *clears her throat* um - I thought we were past this topic
Asami: well it bothers me
Korra: I had to cut your dress to get to the wound
Asami: that was my favorite dress
Korra: Well the sucks, I would've left you with the whole in the dress but- um , you weren't wearing a bra. I cut too much so I thought why not put on new clothes. Don't worry it wasn't a pleasure for me, pretty face.
Asami: wait, so have you seen me bo-
Korra: yes for a second, I mean I didn't have a choice, but I wasn't paying attention.
Asami: How am I supposed to believe that?
Korra: well, I guess you will have to trust me, oh and case you forgot, I saw you in the lake, pretty face *winks*
Asami: but I was under water
Korra: yeah *laugh* clear water, now come on
I had deja vu
Asami: Where are we going?
Korra: Maybe some of the passengers are missing. We need to go and check it out. The plane crew always has a passengers' list,and we need to find it. Then we could look for supplies and bags.
I felt like I couldn't breath.
Korra: Hey Asami, take a breathe,
I felt her hand on my shoulder and it was warm.
Korra: What's going on?
Asami: if we want to count the bodies and collect the luggages, we have to go in the plane right?
Korra: yea, do you have a problem with that?
Asami: well I am not ready to face my- my friend.
Korra: Your friend? You weren't traveling alone?
Asami: No, I wasn't alone. I was traveling with my co-worker.
Korra: Shit, I am so sorry, wait did you see them yesterday?
Asami: yes and I don't want to repeat this meeting
Korra: But when i found you, you were in front of the plane. So you had to go alone.
Asami: she was in the other class, I just avoided that part of the plane. In this case I can't
Korra: Okay, Asami, you have to be strong, you know what the say "hit hard at the battle that is confronting you"
Asami: Um who says that
Korra: I don't know I just heard it before *she shrugs*
Asami: if I say I don't feel like I can do this, I mean it and you saying "motivational" things you heard is not gonna change that
Asami: *thought* even though it did totality soothe me down.
Korra: How bout this, I go into the class your friend is in and you do the other side.
Asami: Okay, deal
Korra: ooooo I have a better idea
Asami: what is it?
Korra: what is your friend's name?
Asami: Chelsea
Korra: I will carry Chelsea away from the plane so we can bury her
Asami: um - I don't know is it alright to move the body? Are we even able to do this?
Korra: nothing I can't handle *flexes*
Asami: Okay then , I trust you.
Korra: deal, wait, is that why you threw that tantrum yesterday
Asami: maybe, ugh I was having hard day
Korra: I went flying alone so I can't imagine how you must've felt. I hope the burial will help you move on. I'm sorry for your loss. One more thing.
Asami: sure
Korra: how does she look like
Asami: She's late 30tys black short hair and a white shirt I believe.
Korra: Okay it might take a while so um if you want, you should keep yourself occupied.
After she said that she headed towards the plane as I went to the woods.
Maybe I could find her flowers. A short walk in the woods I saw this beautiful yellow flowers, it reminded me of her. It was bright like her energy every day. I headed back to the beach and sat on a rock far back from the plane. Two hours later Korra comes back.
Korra: It is done, let's go.
She said so sweetly and led me to the grave.
Asami: wow, you actually dug up a grave. Was the description I gave you enough to find her?
Korra: Yes, It was easy to find her.
Asami: I like the pile of rocks you put
Korra: It's the easiest way to find the grave later,
Asami: yea, one thing is missing
I walked up to the pile of rocks and gently placed the flower I picked on top, I took a deep breath. I will miss you Chelsea.
Korra: I have never held nor been to a funeral before.
Asami: I have
Korra: Oh um, so wanna give a speech
Asami: yes I do, *takes a deep breath* Chelsea you were much more than my co-worker. You were my friend and biggest supporter. I will never forget how you always joked around about parties and the hot people. How you lightened up every boring meeting. How you looked after me. You have made everyone's life better. Having you around was the best thing that happened to me. I will miss you so much. Bye Chelsea.
Korra: Bye Chelsea, Man life ain't fair she seemed like a lovely person
Asami: believe me she was
Korra: do you feel better?
Asami: yea, but still was a terrible experience. You know it was my second time watching someone die before.
Korra: Wait, What did you say?
Asami: well she was still alive when I found her and
Korra: are you kidding me?
Asami: what?!
Korra: you said SECOND time
Asami: oh yea when I was younger I came home from school. Come to find out that someone robbed us and put my mother in bad shape. My father was in his office in his building and I saw my mom on the floor. I watched not knowing what to do, I was just seeing her life draining away by the time the ambulance came she was gone.
I started to cry remembering that horrid scene in my old house. All of a sudden I feel a pair of strong arms around me. She was hugging me and it felt nice. It warmed me up.
Korra: I am so sorry you have to go through that
Asami: yea I moved on from it, It pushed me forward.
Korra: how about we think of a nice memory
Asami: ok well, remember when we met in the airport
Korra: how can I forget you and your bitchy attitude
Asami: oh shut up, anyways Chelsea liked you she said you were as hot as my spilt coffee
Korra: Oh yeah? So, now I can tell one thing about her. She had really good taste in women.
Asami: *laugh* Yea okay. You keep telling yourself that. This funeral, It really helped me, Korra. I want you to know that I appreciate it.
Korra: No problem, pretty face. Are you ready for a challenge?
Asami: I think so, lead the way
We walked back to the plane wreck.
Korra: Can we start checking the passengers now?
I nodded as she told me to go look for the list as she counts the people. So I went inside the plane and walked to the staff room. It should be here and it was. I was curious and I thought why not check out Korra. It just had her basic info. She is from the Southern tribe. Born on April 20th, she is 21 years old. I swear she looks younger. I shouldn't be doing this, good thing the airplane was empty. Okay time to look at what I was suppose to. They were 36 people all together. Should not be hard to count. I walked out and met with Korra.
Korra: I counted 34 people. Not counting us obviously
Asami: Then that is all, and that means it's just us two on the island.
Korra: that is true.
Asami: So what now?
Korra: Now? Now ,we will find the luggages and see if anything is worth it to put to use, and our adventure begins. Welcome to the jungle, Asami Sato.
