The Young Girl Of The Tung Shao Pass

A/N: And now edited chapter four... (This is that last Chapter I'm editing tonight, I'll continue with the rest tommorow)

Chapter four

Shang was running down the hall once more to get the doctor. How was this possible? He had felt how cold the girl was when he'd touched her. And the doctor had pronounced her dead only moments ago. He couldn't try and figure it out right now. He had to get the doctor quickly.

When the doctor saw the young girl alive, all he said was, "Thank-you, ancestors."

Mulan was just as shocked as Shang had been. She'd stayed with the girl while Shang went to get the doctor. She was gasping for air so heavily that Mulan had no idea what to do. Several hours later, the doctor came out of the room, shutting the door behind him. Walking up to the couple he smiled for a brief moment.

"She has a lot of pain, but in time she will be just fine." He smiled again, "She is a fighter."

Mulan had to smile, she was so relieved. The girl would be just fine. Shang felt as if the world had been lifted from his shoulders. She would be OK. They had managed to save someone.

May Lin laid on the bed, staring at the ceiling. The pain she had felt when she first woke up had been unbearable. She was aching all over. She remembered the light, how comforting it had felt. She dismissed it as a dream, although it didn't feel like it had been. The pull she had felt had been so forceful she had had no time to scream. Then in an instant she went from blissfully numb to excruciating pain. She blinked. Stop thinking about it, she chided herself.

She did, but then she felt alone. She had never felt so alone in her life. Where was Mama and Baba? What about Chen? She thought for a moment and remembered. She remembered everything from that night. The screams, the blood, the fire, the face on her younger sister as she...May Lin felt hot tears rolling down her cheeks. She remembered everything so vividly.

And she also remembered the face of the giant man on his horse. He'd been cackling as all of the homes were being burnt down and people savagely murdered. His face was pale like a vampire's. It was a face she would never in her life forget, the one who had ruined everything. Shan Yu.

Note: I may change the rating to Pg 13.
