Blood tainted her hands, it clouded her vision until all she saw was the thick crimson liquid. Her eyes rose from her bloodied hands to the gory corpse of the man before her, his neck shattered. He had been her first victim, and she doubted it would be her last due to Azula.
A soft, pale hand was placed gently upon her shoulder. Her horrified look did not fade, and she still gawked at her hands. She had /killed/. "It goes away after a while,"Her raspy whisper was quiet, but it still rang loudly in Ty Lee's ears. How did Mai know of the sickening feeling that gripped her stomach? Her wide grey eyes scanned the field. Two men lay in their own pool of blood, a single stiletto in each of their chests.
So Mai knew what it felt like. It was a strange feeling. She felt dirty, as if all her innocence had faded like the life in the man's eyes. The hand pulled away, and still mortified, Ty Lee followed Azula's barking commands to continue on. The soldier's tanned face flashed in her thoughts once again, and she felt warm, stinging tears drip down her face. Thankfully it had started to rain, so her tears were hidden. The rain could wipe away her tears and the blood that tainted her hands, but it could not wash away the feeling of horror that spread through her. She was a murderer.
AN: An angsty Ty Lee fic. Betcha never thought that would happen, Hmm? I've been writing a lot of fluff and humor lately, so I decided to go in the opposite direction and write something incredibly emo. This was the outcome. Hope you guys enjoy it. Review please.
