[Once that water's latched on, Korra's all too sure of victory in their sparring match. After Leo's shell hits the ground and her water tentacle is heading towards him, Korra's focused on that. Try to break that block so he would submit.
The oncoming goes through, all Korra can do is see it at the last moment. Unable to block, and unable to use her legs to earthbend a defense in time the blow lands squarely on her jaw. Water splashes loudly onto the ground as the foot that shared the same side of the injured jaw was forced into the air by the impact, her balance toppled.
When she went to stop herself from falling and getting her fists prepared to firebend, Leo was already atop of her and had both of her arms pinned limiting her firebending options. The only bending maneuvers that came to her mind were breath related, one that she attempted to use on Tarrlok when her arms were bound: firebreathing and ice breath: a technique learned from her years of training under Katara. Both were something reserved for a real duel, not a sparring match.]
Not bad.
[Said playfully, in a much more joking tone than when Mako said those same words to her on the day they met. It hurt a bit to talk, but nothing worse than she's received from fighting Amon's chi-blockers, and she wasn't too concerned since she would heal it up when she was free to do so.]
