wow, this one has quite alot of blood in it....anyway, there is tokka in this one too....
Sokka groaned, throwing himself back on the…whatever he was on. It felt like stone, but deep below he could feel a pulse. A sort of throbbing. Everything around him was dark, except for one light above him. it enabled him to see a few feet around him, but that was it.
A child cried out from somewhere behind him. He sat up and gazed back into the shadows. After a few minutes, he heard and saw nothing. But as soon as he turned around, the cry sounded again, this time to his side, and closer than before.
An echoing child's voice called out, "Daddy?" then the cry again.
"Daddy, are you hiding? Where are you, Daddy?"
Sokka was staring into the darkness, trying to make out something, anything. He heard a small shuffling noise, and a child's hand stretched out into the edge of the light. Another followed, then a small, black haired head. As the rest of the child emerged, Sokka realized it was a little girl. She whimpered and pulled her knees up to her chest, and hid her face on her knees. Her clothes were torn and dirty, her hair long and unkempt.
"H-hello? Are you okay?" Sokka asked the little girl, and she lifted her head enough to peer out at him. He was struck by the shock of her ice-blue eyes.
"Daddy!" She suddenly, throwing her hands up in the air. Her achingly familiar pale hands. Sokka tried to place where he had seen her before.
The girl turned and called into the darkness. "Mommy! Mommy I found him!" She turned back and smiled. "We were looking for you everywhere, Daddy. But its okay now."
Out of the shadows came a woman, her hair the same shade of black as the little girl's. She brushed it out of her face.
"Toph!" Sokka exclaimed, startled to her feet. Toph gave a small, sad smile at her name. Her lips stopped moving, but the smile continued to grow. A small, shining, red line, was stretching from both corners of her mouth. Toph raised her eyebrows in fear, and she started clawing at her face. The little girl giggled.
The lines faded to a dark red, and blood began slipping down Toph's face. She touched her hands to her face, her hands becoming smeared with red. Her jaw dropped a little, and she screamed. She screamed for what seemed like forever, until the life faded from her blind eyes. And then she smiled again.
Sokka looked on in horror as the body of the woman he loved drew a sword from behind her back. the little girl walked over to smile up at her dead mother, and grasp her bloody hand. Toph's body turned her face to the little girl, before smiling and slitting the girl's throat with the sword.
And all Sokka could do was watch, standing in a pool of his family's blood.
ew. creepy little girl...
