Rating: M (in total)

Summary: With the help of spiritual forces, Korra and Asami are able to conceive their first child, but during the pregnancy, Asami is captured by new members of the Red Lotus. This causes the remaining members of Team Avatar to assemble again to save Asami, and the world's first spiritually conceived child, who obviously isn't just any ordinary child…

Author's Note: This story is set three years after our glorious canon Korrasami ending, and just so you know, a lot of characters will be present, including some original ones.

Prologue

"I really don't know what to tell you," said Tenzin, his soft voice echoing as he sat opposite of Korra and Asami, with Jinora sitting next to him. They had met up with the two lovers in Air Temple Island in a private meditation chamber. The Air bending masters had heard the couple's requests but weren't too sure if they had the knowledge required to solve the problem.

"I know it's a long shot," Asami chuckled weakly, but Jinora cold see the sorrow behind the engineer's eyes, "but we were hoping that maybe we could beat science? I mean, if it truly isn't possible, Korra and I will just adopt, but we just wanted to try all we could first."

"The only way for you and Korra to procreate, given you sexual genders," Jinora explained soothingly, "would be a spiritual conception. This type of procreation is rare, and is only found in mythological texts…"

"Mythology does not always equate to history and truth," clarified Tenzin, watching his daughter think.

"There are a couple of stories pre-dating the Avatar cycle that mention spirits impregnating their human lovers," Jinora continued, "However, these conceptions happened with a spiritual body with a physical body…"

"Are you hinting something?" Korra mumbled, narrowing her eyes.

"Have you possibly tried having intercourse with Asami while in the Avatar state?"

Tenzin's face grew red at his daughter's words. No matter how professional Jinora's vocabulary was, no father likes to acknowledge that their daughter is old enough to talk about sex.

"I've tried," Korra frowned. "I hate it though. I feel like I'm not having Asami and that Raava is. It's… I get a little jealous."

Asami reached for the Avatar's hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

"Maybe that's why," said Tenzin, "You need to let Raava take control. If those stories Jinora is mentioning specify a spirit body with a human body, maybe that's what you need to do to impregnate Asami."

"But then it won't be my child! It will be Raava's!" Korra shouted, her words resonating in the entire room. The Avatar gritted her teeth and looked away from the Masters. "I'm sorry…" she said finally, but still refused to look them in the face.

"May I try something?" Jinora asked, still composed. Korra looked up at the young woman and nodded silently. Getting up from her meditative stance, the young Master beckoned Asami to stand as well. "Korra, as the Avatar, you have many powers, and most of them remain undocumented and undiscovered…" Korra rolled her eyes as she remembered a similar speech from Zaheer. "During Harmonic Convergence, you were at one of your highest spiritual forms, and anyone else with bending abilities was enlightened with stronger power too. You even unlocked the lost spiritual energy that released the Air Bending powers for the world … one could say that all those people who were gifted with air bending had the power dormant and suppressed within themselves since birth, but when you unlocked that spiritual energy, their powers were awoken."

"Yes, but… if you're trying to relate unlocking bending to Asami, you should really know better. Asami was unaffected by Harmonic Convergence…" Korra said bitterly. Her lover shot her an angry look, scolding her for her behavior.

"She may not have unlocked a bending skill, but she may still have been affected by the strong spiritual energy released." Jinora placed a hand over Asami's head and closed her eyes.

"Uhhh…" Korra mumbled, looking at Tenzin.

"I believe she's checking her chakras," the older Master informed, "The average human only has certain energetic limits to their chakras, perhaps Jinora is trying to find out if Asami's spiritual limit has changed…"

The younger Master continued to move down Asami's body, from the top of her head, to her forehead, down to her throat, and kept moving her hand after a few seconds of contact, and eventually made her way down to Asami's root chakra.

"Hey!" Korra snapped possessively, watching her lover blush but try to stay still as Jinora removed her hand from Asami's groin.

Opening her eyes, Jinora looked at the group with a neutral face, but as they all waited for her to give an answer, she couldn't help but smile. "Asami's spiritual and cosmic energy is greater than an average mortal, in fact, her normal biological hormonal energy seems incredibly heightened to."

"So are you saying that I just became extra fertile due to Harmonic Convergence?" Asami asked bewilderedly.

"What a power," Korra grinned.

"Indeed," Jinora said. "She has enough cosmic energy running through her chakras that I believe she can become impregnated by a spiritual being. In mortal procreation, gametes are what are required to conceive offspring, but not only is she fertile, she can become impregnated by your spiritual and cosmic energy, Korra."

"Well hold on," Tenzin said, holding up his hands, "If Asami can carry children of mankind and spiritual beings, what kind of child will she be carrying if Korra can impregnate her?"

"Well, according to the stories, the children were born looking like normal people, the only thing that made them different was their connection to the spirit world. Nothing more spectacular than an average bender, it seems. The old scrolls never went into full detail, or were left unfished. But I think it's safe to say that the pregnancy will be a safe one," The young Master smiled.

"But that doesn't explain why I can't get her pregnant," Korra said. "Us finding out about Asami's fertility doesn't change anything. All it means is that she has been like this since we have been trying to have a child, but I keep failing."

"I believe your answer lies in what you have already suspected," Jinora frowned. "You have to let Raava take over. You cannot impregnate Asami in your physical form simply because you do not have compatible gametes. The only chance you have at Asami carrying your child is if you mate to her physical body with your spiritual one. Raava has to be present."

Korra hung her head down in defeat, "Okay then," she said. "Well thank you, both of you, for your counsel and help," she bowed to each Master respectively. "If you don't mind, I will be going to bed early tonight."

"Not at all," Jinora said somberly, returning the courtesy. "Please, rest Avatar. Asami," she bowed to the heiress as the two women left the chamber.

After a long silence of walking through the terraces of the temple to make it to their quarters, Asami broke the silence.

"Well?" She asked, looking at Korra's depressed face. "Korra, I understand how much you want this child to be yours, because I want the same thing. I want our baby to be made from each other, but if you just want to adopt, that's fine, we don't have to let Raava into this if you don't want to."

"No, no," the Avatar replied softly, opening the door to their chamber, "We'll just… we'll just talk about this in the morning, okay? I'm gonna go throw some water on my face or something. Can you prepare the bed?"

Asami nodded, but looked at her lover in concern. "Yes, Korra," was all she said, but before letting the Avatar go wash up, she grabbed her by the arm to pull her around. She kissed the Avatar and said as lovingly as Korra had ever heard, "I love you, okay?"

"I love you too," she said back, just as gently, and slipped from Asami's embrace to go to the washroom. She turned on the faucet and began to splash cold water on her face, hoping the chill of the water would relax her. Reaching for a towel when she felt the cold water had done its job, she dried her face and watched Asami prepare their bed in the mirror. Asami was too good for her, Korra thought. She loved the engineer so much, she knew she was ready for marriage, but had started talking about children first. How absurd of her- that wasn't the order of things in society. The Avatar had at least proposed to the heiress, and was accepted, but maybe she was moving too fast for the other woman, but Asami never said anything. Korra's head filled with negative thoughts, and began to daydream, not realizing that she was watching her lover undress from the mirror.

Korra… said a voice deep within her. Startled, the Avatar looked at her body to see the faint glow of Raava's outline under her clothes.

Korra… came the voice again.

"What, Raava?" Korra answered in a whisper, her jealousy returning.

I know your struggle. I feel it in you; you cannot hide your emotions from me.

"Who said I was hiding them?" Korra pouted back.

You must let me be with her. You desire to create a child from your own flesh. I can give you that.

"You can give me your child, not mine."

Wrong, echoed Raava's voice in her mind, The child will still be made of your flesh and Asami's flesh, but the soul will be made of me. It is the only way. The child will need a soul as much as it will need a body. You must consummate with her in the Avatar state. It will not be dangerous for her, I know you fear for her safety, but you must trust me. When she reaches her climax, you must allow me to surface. Only then will we be able to give her the cosmic energy she needs to create your child.

Korra looked behind herself to see Asami already waiting for her in bed, sweetly bundled up in the sheets. The heiress laughed when she caught Korra watching her.

"Don't look at me like that," Asami smiled, "I'm cold. Come keep me warm."

"The child will be mine?" Korra asked Raava in a whisper one more time.

The child will be ours. Yours, mine, Asami's. The child will be ours.

With that, almost in a trance, the Avatar walked into the bedroom to join her lover in bed, and kept her warm the best way she knew she could…

The end! Of chapter one, of course. I know this is just the prologue, but there will be tons of action, drama, adventure, romance, sex, and violence to come in future chapters! Hence the M rating. I live off of reviews, please let me know what you think!
