Death (Except Not Really)

[bentflame]

OOC: Aftermath of this.

Azula had never considered her own death before- not seriously, at any rate. The possibility that she would die in battle had never crossed her mind (why would it, when she spent most of her time fighting a ragtag group of children?), but then again, she had to admit that she had never been able to see herself withering away and dying of old age; going without a fight.

Quietly, Azula took stock of her situation. After Richard had left and she had collapsed, her legs (which were, of course, still frozen to the ground) had almost been wrenched out of their sockets by her fall. Her arms, too, had hit the ground rather hard, and this time she hadn't been able to keep from crying out quite loudly. His parting gift- an iceball straight to the gut- left her with an unsettlingly sharp pain in her stomach that hurt more than anything else when she tried to move even just the slightest bit. She didn't want to know what that was all about. Her only comfort was the reminder that her opponent had been seriously injured himself- she doubted that he would recover from her attack.

It really wasn't a bad day- it was quite nice out, actually. The sun was shining. The grass was soft. There were worse places to die, really.

Azula was alone. No one was coming for her; no one even knew she was here, save from that one kitchen boy who had seen her heading out- and it wasn't as if he was going to come searching for her when she didn't return.

The virus would probably have worn off by the time her funeral took place. She wondered if Ty Lee would go.

OOC: And FYI- she's not really going to die (I can't even read deathfic most of the time), she just thinks she is. If no one shows up to rescue her then I'll... figure something out? XD

((OOC: I was thinking about this. D'you want Ty Lee to show up, thinking to watch Richard lose? And then post a "..I need help and a healer to come over right away, something's wrong!" post? Or something?))

If you want to do that, that's fine with me. :)

If her new attitude was a virus, as many people thought it was, it had turned out to be a good virus. Ty Lee wanted to be close and Azula's attitude the previous night wasn't enough. Bad karma and all.

Ty Lee had returned to the palace, and started asking questions as to the whereabouts of the princess. No one knew where she was, then, a kitchen boy stepped forward. A bit of...talking later, Ty Lee knew where Azula had been heading. An off chance, but it was worth looking into.

Ty Lee was fast, she had been trained to be, and the feild...oh. There Azula was...Ty Lee's heart skipped a beat. That didn't look promising. Was...

She ran.

((And here's my response. <3))

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Azula thought she heard someone approaching. She turned her head to the side, trying to see who it was (and even that hurt a bit). When she spoke, her voice was quiet and- as much as she hated to admit it- weak.

"... Ty Lee?"

OOC: I didn't know whether "she ran" indicated towards Azula or away from her, so I kept it ambiguous. ;)

[hotpinkaura.livejournal.com]

There was a sound. Ty Lee couldn't hear what it was but that meant...that was at least somewhat good.

Doing a quick sumersault to speed her journey along, Ty Lee got much closer and faintly she was scared. "Oh...Azula..."

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

"Ty Lee." Her vision was slightly blurry, and out of focus- it appeared to her as if two girls were standing in front of her, weaving in and out of each other. She squinted slightly, and they solidified.

[hotpinkaura.livejournal.com]

Azula looked bad, Ty Lee knew some about how the body worked. She had to, her fighting style demanded it. From her knowledge, there was something wrong. "Oh..."

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Azula took a deep breath. Trying to talk made her light-headed.

"Arms broken. Internal in-injuries...

"Dying..."

[hotpinkaura.livejournal.com]

"Don't talk, it'll be worse."

Ty Lee crouched down, ignoring what Azula said last..it wouldn't get that bad. "I need help."

Ohmy, and she's going to get blown up by Maraich, too?

Azula's having a bad month.

Re: (OOC)

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Also, Ganondorf is probably going to kidnap her someday and try to make her a slave. She's having a very bad month, indeed. XD

But I think that ty lee is already doing osmething?

Re: OCC

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Nah, I wouldn't kill her. Like I said, I fall apart reading deathfic; I'm not sure if I could write a death scene. XD

Yep, Ty Lee's pretty much got it taken care of... I think they're going to worldhop her to a hospital on Karen's world. Thanks for the offer, though. :)

it's me

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Awww good!
to karent's world? hehehhe you know that thanks to the virus karen is in loveh whit Azula, right?


She told nancy that she wanted to be on his place XD


By the way, that's Hakuba Saguru, my new character ^^ kaito's enemy, more or less, he's a detective and he tries to catch kid

Re: it's me

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Yeah, actually, I don't know at this point... they might just treat her on her own world (though she's going to be totally against that idea because she won't want any of the court doctors asking questions, and won't want the news that she was beaten so badly to get around, heh).

Cool- congrats on your app being accepted! :)

Re: it's me

[sassygirlsrock.livejournal.com]

Sigh, poor Azula. Loos like it's a bad year for her ^^

Awww thankies! Hakuba is quite a gentleman to ladies so he will provably give to Azula the "respect" that she always claims to deserve

Re: it's me

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Heh, I know, right? And more Azula-torture planning is underway... o.O

XD She'll be happy about that...

Re: it's me

[oceanicbutterfly]

That's the current plan, and given that we've got worldhops set up (should Karen just appear in a new thread, to help organize things, or should she squeeze into the existing one, or what?) towards that end, I think we're sticking with it. Azula's not really in any position to complain right now. Which is very fortunate for Karen, as she would probably not enjoy being, you know, set on fire.

Re: it's me

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Either way is fine- if you want, you can continue on in here, or we can switch over to another one. :)

[oceanicbutterfly]

Haru-san had been right about the cold--Karen was still shivering a bit when she arrived. Carrying the first aid kit with her right hand and her laptop (just in case) under her left arm, she looked around for...

Oh, no.

Azula looked even worse than she'd expected. Her arms and legs were all at painful-looking angles, and her feet were frozen, Ty Lee hadn't mentioned that. (At the thought of Ty Lee, some part of her brain noted that she was there, too.) "Azula!" she called out as she ran over, unceremoniously dropping everything on the ground next to the princess.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

At the sight of the other girl, Azula's face took on a nasty scowl. "What are you-" With a slight gasp of pain, she stopped speaking. She continued to slide closer to Ty Lee, using only her torso.

[oceanicbutterfly]

"Shh, don't try to talk. Hold still." Azula wasn't doing herself any favors by straining herself. That, and Karen didn't want to have to hear Azula rejecting her even at a time like this.

She wasn't sure what to do about Azula's frozen legs yet, but there was no use sitting around doing nothing trying to figure something out. Karen pulled tape and a SAM splint from the first aid kit (her parents spared no expense when it came to the potential safety of their beloved daughter), and got to work on Azula's right arm.

[Accidentally posted before I finished adding something in. Sorry.]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Why did everyone keep telling her not to talk? If she wanted to talk, she was going to. And she was also going to go lie next to Ty Lee.

Shooting Karen a withering glare, Azula summoned up all her energy to speak in the harshest, most menacing tone she could manage at the moment (which, unfortunately, was not very harsh or menacing at all). "Leave me alone."

OOC: Yeah... she's not going to get much thanks from Azula, sorry. D: She's still convinced the internal injuries will kill her, so she isn't much interested in having her arm splinted at the moment. :P And no problem; I'll just add my response to this post.

[oceanicbutterfly]

"You need help." Karen finished fitting the splint to Azula's arm and started taping it in place. "And I mean it. You might have a chance, we have a doctor coming here as soon as she can, but it's no good if you strain yourself too much before she gets here."

[At least after the virus wears off she'll get to gloat about who was overconfident and who had the right idea. 'Course she might want to make her way offworld before she starts on that.]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

"I don't need you," she growled, ignoring Karen's reasoning in favor of continuing on with her "journey". "Go away, now."

OOC: XD
