Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Gala
[3rd POV] [Later that day]
Walking towards City Hall, Gwen looked up at the brightly illuminated building, noticing the banners with what looked to be Korra on them. Gwen had dressed up rather simply for the night, changing her symbiotes form into a simple suit.
Walking into the lit building, she ignored the glances of confusion that was being sent her way, before smiling as she walked up behind Korra, who was seemingly talking to someone.
"Wow, you look great, Korra" Gwen said from behind, causing Korra to jump slightly. The dress the girl was wearing seemed to be a traditional Watertribe dress of sorts.
"Hey! Don't scare me like that you ass" Korra says with a deep breath, causing Gwen to grin, before noticing the ones Korra was speaking to.
'So that's Asami...'
'Gotta admit...she's way more attractive in person' Gwen thought, remembering the girl from when she first watched the show.
"And who is...this? Korra" A man said from besides Korra, causing Gwen to glance at the man that she recognized as Tarlokk.
"Hmm? Oh, this is Gwen, a good friend of mine, and my Firebending teacher!" Korra said with a smile as she introduced Gwen to the man.
"Ah, it's a pleasure to meet you...Gwen" Tarlokk said with a fake smile as he shook Gwen's hand.
"It's nice to meet you as well, Tarlokk" Gwen said, noticing another wealthy looking man looking at her in slight interest.
"Ah, this is Asami and Hiroshi Sato" Korra said, introducing the two. Gwen gave each of them a small handshake, a small smile on her face.
"So, I heard that you got a sponsor for your team?" Gwen asked, looking at Bolin and Mako, both of them nodding with smiles in their faces.
"That glare might scare others, Beifong, but it doesn't scare me" Gwen added, still not scared of the glare.
"And who are you?" Lin asked, staring the unknown teen down. She knew everyone at the party, but this teen was unknown, and by her standards, being rude.
"Gwen. I'm Korra's friend and Firebending master. I'm also not a fan of the way you're treating her. Because while everyone else tolerates your frankly bitchy attitude, I won't" Gwen said, staring the older woman down.
"And who are you to tell me what to do? I am the Chief of Police, you brat" Lin said with a glare, while Gwen deadpanned. She was inwardly wondering how smart Lin actually was. "Besides the fact that everyone is now watching you be rude? Or the fact that, like I said before, Korra quite literally hasn't done anything to you? Just because you're eternally miserable, doesn't mean you need to make everyone else's lives miserable" Gwen replied, speaking bluntly to the older woman.
'I forgot how much of a dick she is in the earlier seasons' Gwen thought inwardly with a groan, realizing that Lin was going to be very annoying for a little while before she started to get a little better, personality-wise.
Growling in anger, Lin decided to forgo the apology and walked off briskly. Watching her walk off, Gwen only had one thing to say. One that got a small giggle from Korra, and a smirk from
Mako and Bolin.
"Wow...she was a bitch"

That's the end of the chapter.
This chapter was one of the shorter ones, as it was basically just the Gala and that's it. Next chapter will be longer, have more happening, and will probably involve her completing a
quest or two.
Anyways, have a good day!
