Chapter 95: Southern Air Temple


    ?


    [3rd POV]


    The rest of the festival night was spent enjoying the sights and foods, with both her girls and Korra. They had tried all sorts of deserts and snacks, had yed just about every game there, and had even danced.


    This was also when the world was shown Gwen''s dancing, which was quite literally the best in the universe, courtesy of the MANY characters who were knowledgeable/masterful in dancing, and it was very very good at making the girls...excited, and Korra blush brightly as she watched Gwen sway her hips. It was also the time in which she told Tenzin of her decision to join them, which the kids were quite happy about, and Tenzin as well (although he tried to hide it).


    Korra had already been told, and the girl had been...quite understanding, surprising. She had been so epting, as she knew Gwen genuinely wanted to see the temples, and she also knew that Gwen wasn''t the type to get mad with her, since she chose to train under Unq to learn more about the spirits.


    At the moment Gwen, her girlfriends, and Tenzin''s family (including his siblings) were on the back of Tenzin''s sky bison, they had been flying for quite some time now, just sittingfortably on the back of therge fluffy animal. Well, it wasfortable for the most part...


    "Are we there yet?" Ikki asked for what was the now counting...79th time.


    Raven''s eyebrow had been furiously twitching for nearly 30 minutes now. Artemis was trying not to audibly groan. M''gann was...asleep. And Gwen? Gwen was peacefully meditating for the first time, as she focused on not the outside world and her surroundings, but her own being, and it was...peaceful


    She quietly sat, meditating as she gazed into herself? It was an...interesting feeling, as she began to grow the connection she had to her own...soul? She wasn''t sure what it was, but it was...different, but a good different.


    Eventually, her meditation ended, as Tenzin began to speak, causing her eyes to creep open. "There it is, the Southern Air Temple"


    "Isn''t it magnificent?" Tenzin asked, as hended the sky bison.


    "It truly is" Gwen whispered, a smile forming on her face, as she could quite literally feel the spirituality of this ce, and it was...far more potent than anywhere else she had been. She imagined most of the temples would be the same, if not all of them.


    Getting off of the flying bison, the group was greeted by a group of monks.


    "Master Tenzin, wee" A short bald headed man greeted.


    "Good to see you again, Abbot Shung" Tenzin said, bowing slightly with his wife.


    "Is there anything you need? Water? Dandelion Greens? Ah, perhaps you''d like to re-center yourself by meditating in the gardens?" Abbot Shung asked.


    "No thank you, I''m fine" Tenzin replied with a shake of his head.


    "And you must be the honorable Pema. Please, ept these gifts. This is an ancient Airbender head shaver we''ve refurbished just for you" Abbot Shung said, as he handed it to Tenzin. It was...an interesting contraption, and looked to be made of...kunai?


    "Oh...okay" Tenzin said, staring at the object.


    "And Pema, these flowers once filled the mountainside. Now they can brighten your bloom" "That''s...sweet. You didn''t have to" Pema replied, awkwardly. As her entire face was literally covered due to the sheer size of the nts. And Gwen also noticed that they were indeed endangered flowers, ones that she doubted you could find anywhere else on the.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    "Nonsense. Whatever you need is yours. Anything for the mother of the next generation of Airbenders" He said, as they turned to Ikki and Jinora who were arguing over some book, an ancient one it seemed.


    "Yep, those are the worlds next generation of Airbenders" Pema said with a deadpan.


    "This ce is beautiful" M''gann said in awe as she looked around, with Artemis nodding with her.


    "...This is my favorite ce so far" Raven said to Gwen, who smiled at that, happy that Raven liked her decision.


    "Are you all airbenders as well? I did not know there are more!" A woman asked the group, with Gwen chuckling and shaking her head.


    "Sorry, but no. I''m a firebender, Megan there is a waterbender, Artemis is a firebender too, and Raven is a nonebender" Gwen replied, which caused the woman to dete noticeably, but not in a rude way.


    "Ah...well that''s too bad"


    It was the next morning, after spending the day exploring the temple with the girls, taking some flowers she hadn''t seen before (that there were excess of), and of course, more and more meditation. With even the girls joining her. M''gann and Raven were experts at it, but Artemis took a bit of teaching before she learned how to properly do this. And through this, Gwen noticed that their control over their aura was growing, even if it was by a miniscule amount.


    Walking through the halls of the temple, Gwen and the girls were stopped as Jinora rounded the corner and looked at them in surprise.


    "Oh! Um, Miss Gwen, I was wondering if you could...help us? Ikki''s sort of gone missing and we can''t find her" Jinora asked, looking slightly ashamed.


    At this, they all turned to one another, knowing that it was probably partially Jinora and Meelo''s fault as to why she had run off. Considering how siblings could get, it was pretty much the only answer to it, even if Gwen didn''t already know from watching the show before. Gwen spread her senses immediately and found her, sitting at a small "Table" which was more of a circle of stone, around it was her and several adorable baby sky bison. They seemed to be having a sort of tea party.


    "Yeah, we can help. I''m sure we can find her" Gwen replied with a small smile, causing Jinora to breathe out a little sigh of relief, before waving to Gwen and ran off, probably either to look for her sister, or to tell her mom or dad that she Gwen was looking now.


    "You already know where she is, don''t you?" Artemis asked with a small smirk, causing Gwen tough and nod.


    "Of course" Gwen responded, before coughing as she asked her next question.


    "So...how do you guys feel about a tea party?"
