Leaning on the edge of the cruise in a shadowy place to avoid the hot sun rays, Akashi exhaled a slow breath. The cap he blew flew three meters up, before slowly drifting back down to his face, and he blew on it again.
Believe it or not, from his point of view, that could be called entertainment better than what happened in the news.
'So, 6 agents are watching over her.'
Akashi's eyes swept forward. Asami just smiled when she noticed his look, and Korra crossed her arms and glared at her.
'She's just a regular girl, with 6 agents after her. Yet, to assassinate me, they only sent 5. Why am I jealous?' He wondered, before shrugging away and blowing on the cap.
'Anyways, though I went to the South Pole to deal with Korra's evil uncle, I still can handle the assassins,' Akashi mused for a bit, before reconsidering.
'It's not that I want to deal with Korra's evil uncle. She can handle him easily, now that she's mastered the Avatar's state. But I need to be there to save the Real Estate market. And I would gain a lot of experience points there. Though, I doubt things could go as canon. I stopped Korra from dealing with Amon and Tarrlok. I waged a rebellion in the Earth Kingdom. Even if it doesn't affect the North Pole's chief, it would still get into his thoughts, and may change the order of his thoughts, thus changing his actions.'
Sometimes, it amazed Akashi how big things are determined by small details.
The cap fell on his head.
Asami clapped for him. "You balanced it well," she praised.
"Thanks, Asami." Akashi replied, smiling. Korra opened her eyes widely and glared at him, as if he had done something wrong by smiling at Asami.
It wasn't just now, but ever since arriving on the ship, Korra acted as if she was Doakes from Dexter, following Asami with her glare.
'Maybe Korra did some attempts in the past to steal Asami's boyfriend, and now Asami may be returning the favor. Though, I doubt that Asami is that petty of a person.' He concluded, 'Well, as long as she flirts with me and not with Korra, I'm fine.'
And so, they chatted, had a turn on the cruise, and then each went back to their room. Of course, Akashi and Korra shared the same one. And instead of Korra appreciating how good the room was, she lashed out, complaining about him smiling at Asami, and that the latter was flirting with him and all. Akashi just shrugged and said that he didn't want to be rude, so he just smiled.
"Don't worry, Korra," Akashi held her hand and guided her to the bed, "I've rented this whole room for us, not for her."
"How are you going to prove it?" she raised an eyebrow at him.
And he just pushed her to the bed and got on top of her.
Instantly, after half an hour or so, she calmed down and hugged him, her head on his chest, messy and all.
"Still see you can go for more rounds," Korra said, seeing the tent raising above his legs.
"Yeah. Can you?" he asked.
"Sorry. You're just too big, and it wears me out after half an hour or so." Korra said, climbing his body up to his face and kissing his lips, "I literally need some healing water to cool-down."
"It's Okay." Akashi kissed her back.
"By the way, tell me," Korra inquired, "How long do you and Lin fuck?"
Korra was hoping to hear something like 5 minutes or 3 minutes. There is no way that old woman could handle all of that.
"Initially, we used to do it for 40 minutes or so. Until I built up my stamina, it changed to a couple of hours." Akashi rubbed his nose. He didn't lie for a second.
"What?" Korra pinched him, "You're teasing me, aren't you?"
"Hahaha…" Akashi laughed, "Why don't you find out."
"Very well, let me bring some water." She said, grabbing a nearby water and using waterbending to heal her private area.
And then, they went for another round.
Korra got only 30 minutes this time, panting and sweating, and feeling hurt. Akashi, on the other hand, didn't break a sweat.
"No way." Korra said, "How do you do that?"
Instead of saying something like, "I have very high stamina and stamina recovery," he replied, "Just certain workouts for pelvic floor."
"But, come on, two hours. That poor Lin will die," Korra said.
"Can we stop talking about her. You're younger, and you have plenty of space," Akashi said, hugging her. "Let's just cuddle."
She smiled, cuddling him back.
Akashi waited for Korra to fall asleep, and when she did, he slipped out of her arms. He got dressed and went out of his room.
Looking at the sky, he could tell that it was past midnight.
And tonight is the night where he would get rid of the agents that followed Asami, for her own safety.
She and he weren't in a relationship or anything. But they could be considered in friendly terms. That, and her father had begged him to protect her.
Putting his hands in his pockets, he walked.
"A previous cop, acting as a bodyguard for a rich man's daughters against the gangsters that want to blackmail her father. Feels like a script from a cliché movie." He muttered to himself, and he climbed the stairs, reaching the highest point. And then, with a single jump, he reached the top of the roof.
He closed his eyes, trying to sense the sound waves and distinguish them from each other. Four were watching Asami's room while two were on him.
'Killing them here would leave some troubles, wouldn't it.' Akashi thought as he heard a few of them talking.
"Why don't we take him down now."
"We can't."
"Isn't he on the top of our kill list."
"He's not to be engaged with. It's an urgent command to not engage in direct confrontation with him. Just keep distance, report everything, and wait for the commanders to make a decision."
"Is he that strong?"
"Probably. They say so. He left five of our assassins' unit members alive to tell the story."
"If he's pussy enough to leave them alive, why don't we try our luck. Maybe some poison would do it."
"I think you have a point."
And while they were talking, keeping distance from their target, they realized that he wasn't on the top of the cruise anymore.
They both felt pats on their backs at the same time.
And all of the sudden, they found themselves flying, held by that hand. When they got dropped, they fell into the dark sea. On top, was Akashi. It was dark, but they could make out his face since it was a full moon day.
Akashi opened his hand, winds dancing in one direction and getting compressed.
He then aimed his hand at them.
The wind sphere exploded, releasing a ray of wind and short waves, hitting them. What happened next didn't leave them time to think if their life or death had meaning. The wind pressure was higher than their physique could handle, and they turned into a simple bloody mess.
"What's the point of having a good attack if I'm not using it." Akashi muttered to himself, ignoring the experience notification as these agents wouldn't contribute enough. He then flew back to the cruise. There, he found the agents spying on Asami, and lifted two of them from the back of their necks, throwing them into the sea, and then, throwing a massive directed shockwave attack at them.
At the end, there were two left. And they had realized what happened, so they were fully alert and saw Akashi landing in front of them.
"What are you doing here!" said the remaining two.
"Get back! We have nothing to do with you," said the remaining number one.
"So, you're not from the Dai Lee?" Akashi asked, "Let me do a little test. The Queen is a bitch."
Yeah, they clenched their jaws.
"You're a dead man." Jumped at him agent number one, followed by number two.
Akashi, with a boosted speed, appeared in front of them, his hands on their chests. And with a gentle push, the wind carried them out of the cruise.
Opening both hands, two Rasengans formed. And he threw them at the agents who were in the air, flying far away.
Let's say that after their bodies got hit by that compressed air blades that span in every direction, no body was left.
Putting his hands above his face to get a better look, Akashi thought that airbending itself was a strong form of bending if used creatively. And he still had many points to use in case he needed.
However, there is one thing he didn't take control of, and it was the waves that transmitted through solid matters. The screams and yells of the agents, and their stomping on the ground, surely would cause anyone laying on anything to hear them.
Asami, in her sleeping pajamas, opened the door of her room, rubbing her eye. "What's going on? Oh, Akashi, what are you doing here?"
