Prologue

"Take the kids to safety Korra." Alpha Gerald said, staring at his two daughters as they waited at the end of the room, covered with a cloak.

"No Gerald, I need to come with you." Gamma Korra replied, tightening her grip on her sword.

He leaned closer to her, then slightly pecked her forehead, before walking out of the room along with his sword.

She knew what her husband was trying to say to her. He was the alpha, and her husband. The man responsible for their safety.

As she watched him leave the room, a tear fell from her eyes, before she turned back to stare at her two angels, Ava, and Diana.

She rushed towards them, and then bent to their level.

"Mama, are you crying?" Diana asked with a worried look, while using her palm to rub clean the tears on her mother's face.

While Ava was 14, and strong enough to shift into her wolf form, Diana was a frail looking 9 years old girl who was mostly considered as weak by everyone except her mother.

"No baby, I'm not." Came her mother's voice, before a peck was placed on her forehead.

Korra shifted her gaze from Diana to Ava. She had to do this- leave her kids to go fight side by side with her husband. If he was going to perish as an Alpha, then she would perish as the gamma of the white lake pack as well.

"Baby." She said to Ava, reaching for her tiny hands. 

The young kid was always bold even in dangerous times just like her father. She saw the position of a future Alpha in Ava's big green eyes, which was the only personality she took from her father.

"Protect your sister Ava, promise me." Korra said, with a broad smile, staring deeply into her daughter's eyes.

She was really hesitant to leave her two angels, but she had no choice, as the pack's gamma and Luna, she had her duty to play as well.

She picked up her sword from the floor and stretched it towards Ava. "This belongs to your sister. When Diana turns 18, you must give this to her to open her gate of energy and unleash her powers." 

"Yes mother." Ava replied.

Just immediately, Gamma Korra's eyes turned blue as she could sense upcoming danger.

She leaned closer to Ava, and gave her a quick light peck before tucking them both into a tight hug.

"I love you both." She whispered.

She stood up, and walked towards the bed. Gathering the bedspreads, and tearing them into single long pieces strong enough to hold her daughters.

"Come here." She said.

"Diana, get on your sister's back." She instructed, and Diana did as told.

Handing the tip of the torn sheet to Ava, she gave her daughters one last goodbye smile.

"Be strong Ava, and protect you little sister at all cost. Be the alpha your father and I always dreamt about."

Diana's warm blue eyes fell on her mother because she knew absolutely nothing of what she was saying.

"Now run, run and don't look back till you find a safe place to be." She yelled.

Ava held on tight, and jumped down the window, sliding in pain with Diana on her back. It hurts so much, but she held in the pain.

Holding the long bed spread pieces very tight to ensure her babies are down to safety first, gamma Korra felt a sword pierce straight into her heart, but she didn't let go.

Blood gushed out, making her release one hand to stop the sword that was diving deeper into her heart.

Satisfied that her babies are safe, she fell down roughly on the floor to take her last breath, as she could feel her husband was gone as well.

She had failed as a mother, but not as the gamma of the white lake pack. Her eyes immediately fell on the sword Ava had left behind.

Before she shut her eyes, she outstretched her hands towards it, and gave a command.

"Never unsheathe till your real owner finds you." She commanded her sword before finally shutting her eyes.
