Drabble: Children’s Stories
Oct. 18th, 2009 10:45 pmSo this is my entrance into the Avatar the Last Airbender fandom as a writer, and therefore there are now two fandoms I'm active in. I wrote this for
beckyh2112 in the gift exchange at
atlaland where, we the proud Fire Nation are getting our asses handed to us by everyone.
Children’s Stories
“And then the brave Fire Lady Mai turned on the wicked Princess Azula, high above the Boiling Rock...” The storyteller paused for a moment for the gasps of the children around him.
Inside her palanquin, Mai closed her ears to it as she passed, something stinging at the corners of her eyes. She thought about the way it felt up there.
And she thought about the Fire Nation Royal Academy for Girls and about the magnetic, frightened, awkward girl she met her second year in. She signaled her bearers to take her back to the palace as quickly as possible.
