Chapter 7 wasn't actually finished, just yet so I'm ending it now since I really don't like the way I left it. Sorry for the confusion everyone!
So this is chapter 8,really short but it gives closure to the events of Chapter 7...so please enjoy...
Thanks for all of the comments everyone, sorry if I update too fast, I get really into my writing. Also, a little explanation, no I don't plan on using that farm boy again...that I know off...really I'm just winging this. But after Azula beats him up and steals his clothes, that was pretty much it for him...as for the boy that got dragged out well...you'll find out...
Chapter 8
(Ty Lee's Point of View)
"Come on, let's go." That mysterious woman said as she dragged the boy at the bar as my drink was served.
At first I just shook my head and watched them go before downing my small cup of wine, it wasn't the good kind like I used to have with Azula in the Fire Nation. That memory brought a smile to my face, we are too young to drink but every now and then we would sneak a few sips of the homeland wine that was stored in the palace. Leaving some money and the empty glass I decided to follow the 'couple' just to make sure the boy was ok.
As I walked outside I caught a glimpse of them, she was pinning him against the side wall of the inn. He was a cutie, I had to admit. With his straw hat on I didn't get a good look at his face, even in the dark it was hard to tell. Really though, even for a boy he was pretty adorable, even if his clothes looked a little big on him and he had a baby face like a girl...At first I just started walking away to let them have their fun until the 'boy' spoke up...
"You're hurting me, get off." He said firmly trying to push her off.
"That voice..." I said to myself glancing back at them.
She was pinning him against the wall harder, feeling him up and biting on his neck while he cringed struggling as he tried to escape her grasp. His face was turned from me but there was something so familiar about him...like I knew him. The woman clawed at his sides causing him to scream out in pain, making other people passing by stop and turn around to stare. Looking up at all of us staring she smiled and started to drag him into the inn and I saw his face.
Her face...
My heart started to pound in my chest hard like a drum, beating furiously as I felt my blood rush through me as I ran after them. Pushing the door to the inn open I looked to the inn keeper and demanded to know where they headed. He just pointed the way and I jetted up the stairs. This must be how Azula feels when she flies around on her fire. Looking around the empty hallway I tried to pick up on any sounds they could make to lead me to them. Suddenly Suki stepped out of our room and stared at me. Before she could speak or even move towards me I raised my hand to silence her as I heard a scream come from the room at the end of the hall. Bolting with all of my fury I did a cartwheel kick into the door knocking it over. That woman was on top, stripping her victim down to almost nothing, biting, kissing, fucking, everything. The smile that usually graces my lips vanished as I leapt up over them and onto the bedpost.
"Get off my girlfriend." I growled before pushing the woman off Azula.
She hit the wall behind her hard but I knew she wouldn't stay down, before I put all my focus on Azula I jumped off the bed in front of the woman and waited for her to get up and fight me. I would enjoy this. As I predicted she got up and took a swing at me. Dodging her like I would an enemy I let her take a few shots before I cornered her in and punched her pressure points, leaving her knocked out for hours. Needless to say this was a quick and effortless fight. Looking back at the bed I saw Azula still laying there, she was bleeding a little and had nail scratches along her sides. I could see that from where that woman tore her clothes off.
"Azula!" I ran to her side immediately. "Stay right here...ok? Don't leave." I nearly cried looking at her before I rushed back to my lovers predator and dragged her out into the hallway, closing the door behind me.
Azula for once stayed put, as glad as I was to see her again, her sudden weakness was puzzling. She could take down generals, secret agents, monsters of all kinds in the past so why couldn't she have burned the hell out of that woman or defend herself in any way she used to? Laying down beside her I gently touched the wounds on her sides, they weren't deep but I could tell they stung a lot because she kept trying to push me away from that part of her.
"Ty Lee..."
"Where have you been?"
She couldn't answer me, she only clung to me a bit and closed her eyes. Sitting up, still trying to hold her, there was a knock at the door. My eyes darted up as the knob clicked and the door slowly opened. Suki peeked her head inside and saw the two of us. She smiled and sighed with relief that all was well.
"Should I leave you two be?"
"Do me a favor first?" I asked softly. "Could you get me some water and a warm towel? She's bleeding a little."
"Of course." Suki smiled then left.
When Suki returned we agreed that we would all part ways in the morning, and I would continue my journey with Azula to Ba Sing Se. We would also send word to Zuko that we found her and that everything would be ok again and that he and Mai had no reason to worry. Suki looked at me sadly and when I questioned her all she said was that I needed to focus on my mission to take care of Azula. I planned on it. After she left I cleaned Azula up a bit and let her sleep. We didn't talk, we would have time for that later.
"Good night my princess..." I said before slipping into a silent slumber.
(Azula's Point of View)
"Even after all you've done for me, I will always be grateful to you but...I can't stay...I need to leave again..."
"Zula..." Ty Lee said softly in her sleep reaching for my hand.
Finally giving her a little bit of what she wanted I took her hand and kissed it softly. Leaning in I left a gentle kiss on her lips and slipped out of the room quietly. Obviously dressing as a farm boy did not help, even Ty Lee saw right through me. I'll never try that again.
