The Duel (Bad Ending)

The three heroes charged at Takana. The man grimaced, and pulled up a shield of ice to defend himself. Bolin smashed the ground, pulling out a chunk of stone, and chucked it at the wall of ice, breaking it into millions of shards. Asami charged forward with her gauntlet, sending a bolt of electricity his way, but it was intercepted by his lightning quick waterbending. Korra leaped forward, fists of fire on the ready, and chucked both at him. His fur coat set ablaze, and he quickly ripped off his flaming collar, and chucked it at the Avatar. He whistled for his guards, and two metalbenders approached from the shadows, bending chains to wrap around Bolin and Asami. The two immediately got tangled up and fell to the floor. "One on one, Avatar. Let's see how strong you are now."

Takana sent two circular blades of ice the Avatar's way. Korra dodged them, but they got close enough to slice the sleeves cleanly off the jacket she was wearing. She retrieved the blades before they hit the wall, and set them on fire, and effect that would last just long enough to land a killing blow on Takana. However, he ducked, leaving the blades to melt in midair. Korra could tell she was off her game. Even without sleeves, the jacket restricted her movement. "Oh, why not." In one fell swoop, Korra ripped off the jacket from her torso, and allowed her panties to drop to the ground. Bolin and Asami's mouths gaped in unison as Korra stood in a battle stance, putting no mind to her exposed body, but putting all of her energy into staring down Takana. For the first time, she saw him flinch.

Realizing he had underestimated the Avatar, Takana whistled for his guards once more. Another chain shot out and wrapped up Korra, taking her to the ground like it was nothing. "Great effort, Avatar. I especially loved your little strip show near the end there. As we all know, you just love to show off, don't you?" Korra angrily thrashed about, her body stuck in the position it was chained in. "Ah ah ah, you won't do much good there, little Avatar. These chains are special, they inhibit your bending ability while they touch you, so I can't imagine you can bend your way out of this one." He called to his guards. Take each of these prisoners into one cell, I want them all facing each other, but chained up to the point of immobility, as they are now." As he walked off, he remembered one last demand. "Oh, and strip the Sato girl, as well. Just so they're all even."

It had been a few days. Maybe a week? Time got hard to tell now. The three heroes were stripped, humiliated, and chained to the wall like trophies. Bolin tried to lighten the mood from time to time, but eventually even he lost his optimism. Was this really it? Could this really be the end for Avatar Korra?
