That was definitely more than just some back flips, and she actually recognizes some of the martial arts he used in his fighting. Trained and properly executed, the way Dinah was teaching her. After she delivered a searing roundhouse to a kedan’s jaw, the red and black imprint of her heel burned into his cheek, Korra kept her proximity close to Joe’s. That way they could concentrate more on attack than defense, covering each other’s back.

“Yeah, it helps out every now and then.” She only grinned and shot out a focused blast of air that sent a kedan attempting an aerial assault flailing back, his sword dropping to the ground.

“Got everything together?” she asked after seeing the blow to his shoulder, a quick stomp and slide of her leg sent a chunk of earth flying straight into the skull of the offending Choi member. Fire had been her best offensive weapon, it stemmed the flow of on comers and the burns slowed them down if not stopping them entirely.
