The Twenty-Third [Voice]

[bends_lightning]

 You know, considering how quiet it's been around here, you'd think someone would do something about the rest of those bad seeds out there, just waiting to do something about how horribly boring it is.

Hm?

[mostly_spice]

Looking for a fight?

[bends_lightning]

Only if you promise it'll be fun.

[mostly_spice]

Who'm I talking to, princess?

[bends_lightning]

Oh, I just can't believe you don't know already.

You are talking to the future Fire Lord, Princess Azula.

[mostly_spice]

Then you're smarter than you sound.

I can promise it'll be fun for one of us.

[bends_lightning]

Too bad for you it'll be me.

[mostly_spice]

You're not the first person to be wrong about that.

[bends_lightning]

I'm sure I won't be the first to be right about it either.

[mostly_spice]

I'm sure I'll enjoy myself.

...Just tell me when and where.

[bends_lightning]

Take a stroll down Horton Lane.

I'll find you.

[mostly_spice]

[At least she had the eco to deal with the cold, although that was the last of her GE.

Ashelin walked down Horton with an eye to the shadows; watching for an ambush, eyeing cover.]

[bends_lightning]

[Azula waited on the top of one of the warehouses, sitting up and looking down at her nails boredly, in a spot that can't be seen from the streets.

As soon as she hears footsteps, she stands up, smiling. Taking a deep breath, she starts bending lightning around her body, warming up for a moment before shooting a bolt a few feet in front of the redhead.]

[mostly_spice]

-Fuck!

[She doesn't stop so much as reverse direction without the need of turning around; backflips, ten lengths to the cover of a doorway.

Her blaster's in hand by the time she's still, scanning the areas out of sight. Two likely spots, no clear line of fire. Girl had an ego; let's see what it can do.]

...Can't fight like a real woman, girl?

[bends_lightning]

[Azula watches the girl flip out of sight with mild interest. For a moment she just stands there.]

Well well, we have a little acrobat here, don't we?

[She jumps off the building, shooting fire at the ground just before landing to slow down her fall, keeping her eyes on the spot Ashelin ran to.]

I don't have all day, you know.

[mostly_spice]

[Clear line of sight. That's all we needed. Shoots; six shots and then move, rushing the other woman. The intent is to get a hit in before Azula gets her bearings back, and be gone by the time she does.]

Thought you were bored.

[bends_lightning]

[Hearing the shots, she lets loose a streak of fire in front of her, whirling around to the side. She sees the woman coming and crouches down, using more fire to blast herself off the ground and flipping into the air over Ashelin's head.]

I still am.
