Chapter 1: Tone Bender

(Disclaimer! I own nothing of Korra!)

“Yes!” said Korra, “Its finally here!”

She opened the box and it revealed a pedal.

She got her cell phone and called Mako.

“Korra, what’s shaking?” asked Mako.

“You know that pedal I bought off of Amazon?” asked Korra, “I got it.”

“No way,” said Mako, “You got….”

“That’s right!” said Korra, “The Tone Bender used by the one and only Jimmy Page.”

“The one that’s never been played by another guitarist alive?!” asked Mako.

“That’s right,” said Korra, “Never been used by any other guitarist, until now.”

She plugged it in and started playing on it.

“So, what do you think?” asked Korra as she grinned.

“Holy shit that sounds incredible,” said Bolin over the phone, “Now we can finally start recording that album!”

“Tell Tahno to meet up at the usual spot,” said Korra, “Now we can finally start putting together those originals!”

“You got it,” said Mako as he hung up.

He then sent a text to Tahno.

Korra wants to meet tonight at the usual spot. You in?

Mako

Tahno grinned.

Later

Mako was tuning his bass while Bolin was playing around on his drums.

Korra kicked the doors open.

“What’s up playas!” she said.

“You made it,” said Mako, “So, how is that Tone Bender working for you?”

“Wonders,” said Korra, “Although I did get a noise complait earlier. Sorry, not sorry.”

“Classic Korra, excited like a little kid over a toy,” said Tahno.

“So, ready to jam out this new song?” asked Korra.

“Oh you know it,” said Bolin, “I’ve been waiting to bang on my drums all day.”

Tahno grabbed his mic.

Bolin counted down and they started playing.

Nearly Lost You by Screaming Trees

Tahno: Did you hear the distant cry

Calling me back to my sin

Like the one you knew before

Calling me back once again

I nearly, I nearly lost you there

And it’s taken us somewhere

I nearly lost you there

Let’s try to sleep now

The band was jamming out. Some people were outside listening to them and banging their heads. “Man whoever these guys are they rock!” said somebody. “My boyfriend is the drummer of the band you know,” said Opal, “Every groove he plays makes my heart beat!”

Tahno: Drag me far enough to know

I’m blind every mile that you burn

There’s a rider that’s fallen and

It’s clear there’s no time to return

I nearly, I nearly lost you there

And it’s taken us somewhere

I nearly lost you there

Well let’s try to sleep now

Then it was time. Korra stepped on the Tone Bender and played a wild guitar solo. The crowd was starting to cheer even louder. Even Korra’s parents were amused. “She sure loves to play her music loud,” said Korra’s mom. Korra’s dad nodded.

Tahno: Did you hear the distant lie

Calling me back to my sin

Like the one you knew before

Calling me back once again

I nearly, I nearly lost you there

And it’s taken us somewhere

I nearly lost you there

Well let’s try to sleep now

I nearly lost you there

I nearly lost you

I nearly lost you there

I nearly lost you there

I nearly lost you there

Oh yeah, nearly lost you there

The crowd cheered the band name; Tone Benders.

“Oh yeah,” said Korra as she grinned, “This is the start of something new.”
