002. War

It is the anniversary of the end of the war.

The party is held in the Fire Nation of all places.

Ty Lee pretends to enjoy the celebrations; she cannot afford for people to think she has regrets. She is supposed to have flipped sides and she… she did, right? It just hurts to be reminded that she could have done a thousand things to change the outcome of her life.

Maybe many people here are pretending. The country certainly has people who hate this sort of thing.

Suki kisses Zuko while fireworks burst in the sky. Ty Lee begins to walk before someone grabs her wrist. She spins around to land a punch but the assailant dodges. She turns around, twisting her wrist in a painful fashion.

The person Ty Lee is ready to kill removes her mask and lets her hair fall down.

Ty Lee lowers her hands as soon as the uninvited party guest releases her.
