The young Girl Of the Tung Shao Pass
A/N: Hey everyone, don't worry I'll be posting a brand new chapter for this fic soon. I just saw how bad in shape it was and I'm gonna edit all the chapters first. I think I'm gonna do that with all my older fics. I wasn't to good with the formatting OR writing when I first started out, but hey, as you grow so does your writing. Anyway. Thank-you to all of you that reviewed this in the past, it meant a lot. :)
Disclaimer: All characters (except May Lin and family and a villagers etc which are mine) are a property of Disney. So here we go, enjoy!
Chapter one
Only a few days after saving all of China and the dinner with Shang, Fa Mulan and the troops were already heading for another mission. Her mind was occupied only by that magical night when Shang showed up at her father's house. She'd been so happy to see him. It had been as if a weight was lifted from her shoulders. She was in love. Mulan had to snap herself out of her love-sick musings. They were almost at the Tung Shao Pass.
She remembered the first time they passed through the ruins of the village. The dead and charred bodies of the villagers. And the Imperial army, nearly all wiped out, lying in the snow. The atmosphere had been filled with death and despair. Now going back, everyone was filled with a little hope that they would find even one survivor of the horrible massacre. When they finally arrived at the village, the familiar feeling of devastation took over each and every man.
"Move forward," General Li Shang said, breaking everyone's trance. "Search every area for survivors, leave nothing unturned."
Mulan rode up beside Shang. "It's horrible," she said with a look of dismay on her face. "How could anyone cause so much death?"
Staring at the memorial he had made in honor of his father, Shang turned to Mulan, a look of pure hatred in his eyes, and hissed, "Shan Yu."
Mulan looked down. "We should continue searching." Nodding in agreement, Shang rode off.
After several hours of searching, everyone was about to give up hope, when Yao shouted, "General come quick!" Looking up from the burned down home he was searching, Shang immediately stood up and jumped on his horse.
He rode up to Yao. "What's wrong?"
Yao pointed ahead of him. When Shang turned, he saw a young girl covered in blood and burns, trying to make her way, stumbling in the snow from pain, to the troops. Shang ran to her and caught her just as she fell.
She looked at him through red-rimmed eyes and whispered, "My name is May Lin."
And then she was conscious no more.
A/N: So, I know that wasn't much better than before, but hey, now the chapters will be in order, lol.
