Hehe, well, my friends, here is the first chapter of Follow Me (To the North Pole): the long awaited sequel to Show Me (Something).

Disclaimer: If LoK didn't belong to me all throughout Show Me, why would I suddenly own it for its sequel, silly minion horde?

"I never knew Republic City was so boring," I sighed, propping my chin up on the back of a chair in Bolin and Mako's apartment. It had been very glum since we left the South Pole, and, while I was happy for the warmth, I was still frozen…on the inside-

No, that sounds extremely cheesy, so let me start over…It's summer in Republic City, which I'm super happy about. It just makes life so much easier since I don't need to use four tons of blankets every night. I still do use four tons of blankets, but I don't have to.

No one's really done anything since we got back. Well, Mako got a promotion, but who cares about that? All Bolin and I have done is mope around their apartment.

Well, that's not actually true. This one time, a couple weeks ago, Adam, my brother, forced me back to our apartment to get my clothes (apparently Mako was sick of me borrowing his and Bolin's clothes).

Speaking of Bolin: he hasn't been the same energetic, cheerful, happy Bolin that I've known and loved (like a brother!). It just hasn't been the same since Eska broke Bolin's heart. I'd like to think that I've been taking my and Desna's breakup a lot better, but from what Adam tells me, that's just wishful thinking. "I think it's been about six weeks since I last saw Desna," I noted glumly, pulling a picture out of my wallet and fingering it lovingly. "Well, I mean the real Desna, not this photo of him and his mom that I stole from his room."

""Why would you steal a picture of him and his mom?" Mako demanded exasperatedly.

"Why did you break Korra's heart? Twice?!" I retorted angrily, snapping my fingers in his face.

He swatted my hands away, looking annoyed. "That's not any of your business, Kika."

"Really? Then wouldn't you also say that it's not any of your business why I stole this picture?!" He sighed in surrender, turning back to the case files he was previously reviewing. "So keep your stupid eyebrows outta my business."

"Alright, alright, you win…" he muttered, angrily shuffling his papers as he waved me off.

"Of course I did," I replied, returning to my relaxed position. "So, Bo, what're we gonna do today?"

Bolin remained quiet for a few minutes. "…Let's turn down the heat," he replied, sounding sullen.

"Bo, you've lowered the temperature five times today," Mako exclaimed, turning around in his new spinning chair that I kind of either want to take from him or push him out of, maybe both. "We're freezing!"

"You know I always look for every change to contradict anything that stupid eyebrows over there has to say, but I think I might be on his side on this one," I agreed, nodding.

"Why do you want it so cold anyway?" Mako asked, signing his name on the top sheet of his pile.

Bolin glared, standing up quickly. "Because the coldness reminds me of Eska's cold…unfeeling…heart…" he trailed off, sinking back onto the couch.

"Wow, that was depressing," I deadpanned before standing up and cracking my back. "On that note, I think I'll take my leave."

"Oh, are you sure?" Bolin asked, sounding reluctant to let me leave.

"I am, indeed, my friend in misery," I nodded, grabbing my bag from next to the couch, patting Bolin's head goodbye. "I have to go visit my grandmamma in prison tomorrow."

"Oh, well…have fun," he replied.

"Yeah, because having that psycho threaten my life for being "an abomination" is the most entertaining part of my life," I snorted, rolling my eyes as I walked out of the door.

… … … … … … …

"Hey, Kit Kat," Alex, my best friend, grinned as I walked in through the front door of our apartment.

"Hey, Snickers," I winked, dropping my bag next to the doorframe. "What's the haps?"

"Well, your brother is quite angry that you haven't been home in, like, three weeks, but other than that, everything's chill," she replied, licking a lollipop she just unwrapped as she reclined on the couch.

"Oh," I winced. "I'm in trouble…"

"What'd you do, Candy Cane?" Adam's voice sighed as he walked into the entryway.

"Oh, I just thought you were going to be mad at me for not coming home or letting you know I was okay," I shrugged, making my way towards the stairs, but I was stopped when Adam held his arm in my path. "What?"

"You haven't seen us in weeks, how about you spend some time with us?" he asked.

"I can live without being the awkward third wheel to whatever you two have going on," I replied, pushing past him. "Besides, I need to pack."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa," he stopped me once again. "What are you packing for?"

"Oh, I'm going to visit Desna and win back his heart," I said. "And then I'm going to convince Eska to start dating Bolin again, because he's miserable."

"Are they coming here?" Adam asked.

"Unfortunately, no," I shook my head. "For the second time in my life, I shall brave the coldness for love!"

"So you're going to…" Alex trailed off.

"The North Pole," I nodded, determination twinkling in my eyes.

Mwahaha, there you are! A little short, but I hope you liked it anyway! Feel free to drop a review.

Also, some shameless self-promoting: I have just published two (count them: two) LoK one-shot focusing on everyone's favorite quartet: Desna, Eska, Bolin, and Kika. If you're interested in reading them, you can click my username which will bring you to my stories, and they are called Twinsanity and Jennamite.

Loves and hugs, my minions!

Yours psychotically,

Vee
