Chapter 17

No mercy

(Normal pov)

Kai and Zuko were walking through the dark, quiet night with the army of nightmares following behind them. Zuko was excited to show Kai the place he had in mind for their army to start wreaking havoc, but Kai was growing impatient. Both of them had been walking for a long time and Kai was starting to wonder if Zuko even knew where he was going.

"Are you sure this is the right way?", Kai asked impatiently.

"Of course it is Kai, I know exactly where we're supposed to go.", Zuko answered, sounding excited.

"But we've been walking for almost an hour.", Kai pointed out.

"Trust me Kai, I know the perfect place for us to start.", Zuko replied, smiling evilly.

"Can't you at least tell me what it is?", Kai asked, sounding frustrated.

"I'm afraid I can't Kai, I want it to be a surprise."

Kai just humphed, obviously irritated, and kept following Zuko.

After twenty more minutes of walking, Zuko suddenly declared, "We're here."

Zuko had stopped at the top of a hill and appeared to be looking down at something, Kai walked up to the edge, looked down, and was surprised to see Jamonocai village. Zuko looked at Kai with an evil grin and said, "Surprised Kai? This is the same village that you once tried to save with your friends."

Kai turned his head and said coldly, "They're not my friends, at least not anymore."

Zuko walked up next to Kai and slyly asked, "Are you sure about that Kai? Because from what I remember, you even thought of them as family. It is true that you were able to fatally wound that lightning ninja, but what about the rest of them? You could have easily killed them while they were frozen with grief, perhaps you do still have sympathy for them."

"THEY MEAN NOTHING TO ME NOW!", Kai snapped viciously. "I DON'T CARE ABOUT ANY ONE OF THEM, THEY NEVER APRECCIATED ANYTHING I DID FOR THEM! WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WOULD CARE!?"

At first Zuko was satisfied with this answer, but their was still something that seemed to be bugging him a little.

"Hmmm, what about your sister Kai?", Zuko asked notably.

Kai's expression seemed to soften a bit at the mention of his sister, "You mean Nya?"

Kai was about to say something else, but that's when his head started hurting. The top of his head was pounding, as if something was trying to get out. Kai grit his teeth in pain as the pounding in his head kept getting more persistent, it didn't seem like the headache would stop.

"Well Kai, what is your answer?", Zuko asked, interrupting Kai from his trance.

As soon as Zuko's voice broke through the silence Kai started remembering what he was doing here in the first place and all the things that Zuko told him about his friends. After that the headache seemed to go away, Kai shook his head and looked at Zuko straight in the eye.

"She doesn't matter to me either, no one does."

Zuko, satisfied with Kai's answer smiled and said, "Good, now that we have that taken care of I think you should be the one to order our minions to attack this village."

"Yes Zuko."

Kai turned to the army and ordered, "Go, show them no mercy!"

The nightmares eyes shone with delight before running down the hill and disrupting the village full of sleeping people. The whole thing seemed to happen so fast, it didn't take long for the screams of agony and fear to start. The nightmares were dragging people out of their homes, making them writhe around and beg for mercy. Blood splattered all over the grass, it even stained a few of the houses. Some tried to escape, but were immediately killed and ripped to pieces. Everyone knew their was no hope to stop this.

Kai and Zuko just stood there at the top of the hill, watching the destruction unfold. Zuko was grinning immensely with an accomplished look on his face and Kai just stared coldly as the villagers begged for their lives and tried futilely to escape. He felt no pity for these humans, no remorse, no sadness, nothing. Just hate and amusement at the sight, and he accepted that this is who he was now and nothing could make him think otherwise.

OMG, they managed to attack a village! Will the ninja be able to find them and stop this destruction? Or will it be all for nothing? Find out next time everybody ;) Hope you have a good day/night
