Just Press Restart.(Ying Xiang)

[Sun Qing Liang]

~ Sun Qing Liang~

Liang walked around Wu, waiting for a new member of the force. She sat down on a bench near the central fountain. She watched the water flow so freely and swiftly. The day was a nice and beautiful day, like all the others in Wu. You would think that it was peaceful world, with now wars, but on the outside of the city it was a dark and frightening world. Sun Jian had told her that the world would be a better place if people were more like herself and ShangXiang. They took the steps towards defending everything they loved and joined the army, unlike other women who let men deal with such affairs.

Liang casually waited for this new women to come by and meet her. Maybe Liang would rub off of her and she'd have another person to train. with and be part of the Women of Wu Club she liked to imagine it as. She sat back in the bench and placed the letter in her lap that Jian had given her and sent to the other women.

[Ying Xiang]

Ying Xiang walked in the building all wet from the tears that dropped from her face over the night. She was still upset about the death of her father in the last battle. She knew that she was welcome in Wu that was the reason she was going to stay and try to help the way that her father would of wanted. She started to go down the stair and then decided to sit down on the stair being not sure were she is going and she sees the girl that she herd was adopted by Sun Jian Sun Qing Liang but she was not really sure if it was her.

She decided to get up and walk toward her and trips down the stairs one step at a time. She reach the bottom of the stair and was not moving. She was bleeding over her eye there was a long scratch that obviously happened during the fall. She was alright just not wanting to raise her head being scared of being embarrassed.

[Sun Qing Liang]

Liang stared at the letter for awhile, scanning the words slowly out of boredom. She felt a little sick this morning, but she hadn't gotten out in awhile. She wondered how she could have gotten sick when she hadn't had any contact with the outside for a few days. A scratch in the back of her throat irritated her and she started to cough profusely. She covered her mouth with her hand, but as she coughed she tasted a hint of blood in her saliva. She held her hand into the light and saw the crimson liquid drip from her palms. " Is it my time already?" She said as a tear trickled down her pale cheek and onto the bench.

She heard a loud crash at the bottom of a few stairs and quickly wiped the blood on her red dress. She was sure the blood would blend right into the fabric. She didn't want anyone to know she was slowly dieing inside and out. She looked towards the source of the crash and saw a woman. She quickly stood up and walked to her side. " Oh my. Are you okay Miss?!" She said in a worried tone. She reached out her hand to help the woman to her feet. " Take my hand."

[Ying Xiang]

She lift up her head slowly and then looked at the ground were a puddle of grimson blood was that came from her scratch over the eye. She was barely countiouse at this moment from the pain and the lost blood she just suffered was a big reason why. She took Sun Qing Liang hand slowly seeing a small stain of blood that was on her red dress. She felt bad thinking that the blood was from her scratch and she knew it would not be good for her dress. She looked down at the puddle once more seeing that is was going slowly down the stairs and beguining to look like a small river that was red of blood.

She got up and climb two stairs just to sit down and make sure that she was not sitting on the blood. The blood was dripping of her face like there was not going to be a tomorow. She obvious going to need a cloth to wrap around her injuries to stop the bleeding going so baddly. She was embarass from falling all the way down these stairs and all she left was a mess of blood behind. She loos at Liang then on the ground once more. The blood was going in her eye but she ignore the pain trying to tell herself not to cry her father never cried that means she could not cry either.

"I am sorry for the blood that flew on your skirt miss. I am Ying Xiang the daughter of the dead officer of Wu Ying An it is a pleasure to meet you."

[Sun Qing Liang]

Liang felt the woman embrace her hand and pulled back to help her up. She looked at the blood on the floor and looked at her wound. She immediately ripped off a strip of unneeded cloth from her dress and wrapped it around the wound. " You should be more careful. Life is too short to be making careless mistakes like that." She said while faking a smile. She didn't feel much happiness in the past years and all she wanted was for someone to hold her. She looked at the woman and remembered Jian's description of this woman she was supposed to meet. This girl matched the description and it was clarified when she introduced herself. " I'm Sun Qing Liang, adoptive daughter of Sun Jian, and sister to Sun Shang Xiang. Nice to meet you." She said politely. She looked at her dress and saw the blood on her dress. Apparently the blood was darker than her dress and didn't camouflage itself enough. " Oh it's no big deal. It'll come out..." She said while using that as an excuse.

[Ying Xiang]

Ying Xiang looks at Liang and wounders how she was feeling since there is something about her that makes Xiang think the smile was not even close to the reality. She goes slowly closer to her and gets up beside her looking in her beutifull eyes. She slowly place her hand on her shoulder not to scared her or to hurt her trying to find a way to make her feel better. She rubs it slowly just as a friend not close to anything with the emotion of love. She was just trying to see why Liang is feeling so bad was she just lonely or was it deeper then that the questions were unlimited to her knowledge on how to read people through there eyes which is not her strongest ability.

She looked carefully some more then thought about the words that she spoke knowing only a small amount about Sun Jian that he is the lord of Wu and also the tiger of Jiang Dong. She also knows that it was him that almost killed him after she killed the man that killed her father Liu Yang. The other name she knew must be the name of his daugther but she never meet her so her focus did not even try to figure out who she was since she never meet her at all. She the focused her intention towards Liang and bowed to her knowing that she was technically royalty being adopted by Sun Jian himself.

"I am sorry if when I touched you it made you uncomftable I just want to make you feel better since there is something with your eyes and the fake smile that makes me believe that there is something that is hurting you insde. May I help you with that or you rather me to leave you alone?"
