Chapter 1: Prologue
Sometimes the smallest of mistakes have the worst consequences, at least Ty Lee certainly believed so with her current situation after another failed attempt at catching the Avatar.
"How could you let them escape Ty Lee!" Azula raged at her friend, "If you spent less time flirting with that peasant boy from the south pole and actually did your job as I had asked you, we would be heading back to the fire nation with the Avatar as our prisoner!"
"But Zula I didn't mean for them to escape, I'm sorry it won't happen again, I'll do better next time" Ty Lee cowered tears forming in her eyes as Azula backed her up to a rock, towering over her small form, all Ty Lee could feel was fear, complete and utter terror as her friends aura violently changed colours.
"Azula, Ty Lee didn't mean to let them escape, give her a…" Mei tried to reason with Azula only to be cut off, "Quiet! I have had it with people failing me. It seems I need to start using much more direct lessons." Azula screams as she starts to charge some lightning into her finger tips.
Ty Lee's fear grows, her eyes widen as she starts to pull her arms over her head in a vain move to try and shield herself from Azula's rage and lightning, a crack of lightning was heard and all she felt was pain as it filled her entire being, lightning courses through her body forcing her to lock up and fall onto her side.
Mei stood completely rooted as her best friend fell to the ground writhing in agony, how could Azula do that to Ty Lee? She may have made a mistake but surely that wasn't enough to make the Princess attempt to kill her friend.
Azula's eyes widened, her disbelief at what she had just done clearly evident on her face, years of bottling up her emotions was the only reason she could quickly squash the feeling down.
"Come Mei, pray you do not fail me either." Azula turned and quickly walked away from Ty Lee's crumpled form
Mei quickly rushed to Azula's side, mouthing an apology to Ty Lee, even in all her pain she still managed to smile back at Mei , understanding from experience that Azula is someone to be feared.
Hours passed after Azula left with Mei and as the pain started to change to a dull throbbing. Ty Lee's she flashed through her life seeing all her sisters and her parents, she missed them at that moment.
"Child" a voice called out to her, Ty lee managed to open her eyes but only just and what she saw made her completely forget about the pain, a woman glowing in an ethereal light was kneeling in front of her.
"Who are you? Are you a spirit?" Ty Lee croaked out.
"Who I am, child, does not matter but yes I am from the Spirit world, know that I only want to help you, I am here to give you a second chance in a new world, however if you do not wish to go to a new world I cannot save you from death."
Ty Lee's thoughts were racing, a spirit giving her a second chance, why her what had she done to deserve a second chance, she had failed her friend, for a long time she resented her family and she helped hunt the Avatar, how could she deserve a second chance. "Why me, how could I deserve another life"
"Ty Lee what you have done in this life does not matter any more, you were not at fault for Azula's rage and while yes you hunted the Avatar you did so out of a fear of Azula, this is a chance for you to redeem yourself and a chance to live away from being dragged through life by the princess, what do you say?"
'Perhaps it would be nice to have a life away from Azula, a chance to become her own person, yes a new life actually sounded really good right now' Ty Lee thought through it, the pros and the cons, coming to a decision, but one thing confused her. "Yes, I'll do it, but wait, why do I not feel pain?"
"I have dulled your pain receptors so we could discuss your new life, while this is a new world it won't be simple. I cannot tell you what will happen as I simply do not know, but this world requires you to be cautious. Fare well Ty Lee, I hope your new life gives you happiness." The Spirit fades away giving Ty Lee a small smile until she's not visible anymore.
Ty Lee's eyes felt heavy and suddenly everything went to black, the sound of a baby's wailing filling her ears before she fully lost consciousness.
