--Chapter One--
As the morning sun arose upon the three kingdoms; Wei, Wu, and Shu.
All you can hear are the blades of brave soldiers fighting. Their weapons clashing against each other; for perhaps, Shu and Wei were having a war. Once again, it's over a woman. Zhen Ji of course. She had been engaged to Lord Liu Bei's son for over the past three years. But, all of a sudden from out of the blue she had instantly fallen in love with Cao Pi. Which is Lord Cao Cao's son, and heir to the throne of ruling over Wei.
Fortunately, Cao Cao had secretly fallen in love with this young woman and would risk his whole entire army just for her. And so the war continues with Liu Bei, losing.
(Back in Wu)
Xiao had gotten up to feed the barn animals and when she had gotten to the barn, she noticed Zhou Yu feeding the animals. She chuckled, at him and stared. He turned his head looking straight at her eyes and giving a well shown smile for her. She blushed and started walking again.
"My love I've never seen you up this early. Are you alright?" Xiao asked.
"Yes, I'm fine. I was just wondering how Shu is doing against Wei. And you out of all people know when my mind is occupied I can never get enough rest."
"Yep! Well, just wondering but…Are they fighting for the lady Zhen Ji?"
"You guessed right Xiao" he said with a face full of anger, then clenched his hands saying "but, I don't see why they would fight over a woman like that! She's nothing but trouble and she knows nothing about true love!"
"Zhouie, I'm sure that Cao Pi and Liu Bei's son both like her for some of her qualities. Otherwise, they wouldn't be fighting this ridiculous war.
"Xiao…" Zhou Yu sighed and then got up and left.
Soon afterwards Xiao came running inside to find Zhou Yu. But instead she bumped into Gan Ning. She shoved him to the side of the hall way and started running. She knew what her love was going to do. Because he's done that to her before, a couple months ago. Finally there came a turn and she was sharp so she sprinted outside and she saw Zhou Yu on his horse riding towards the main gates. 'Oh, not again. I know you Zhouie and I don't think you should fight this war. You are having completely nothing to do with it!' Xiao said to herself. Quickly she dashed in front of Zhou Yu and was knocked over.
"Xiao!" Zhou Yu yelped.
And that was the last thing she heard until she fainted.
(Back With Shu & Wei)
Liu Bei, had summoned his men back and they started heading towards home. Realizing that Zhen Ji only wanted Liu Bei's son for one thing…just to cause chaos between the lands, and nothing more. Once when Cao Cao heard them pulling back he couldn't help but give out a strong laugh. And say "Those buffoons no nothing of war! Especially when it comes to women!" He said with pleasure, grabbing Zhen Ji by the waist.
She struggled to get out of his grasps but he told her "My sweet, where are you going aren't you going to thank me for saving you from Shu?"
He gave her a teasing smile. But she looked at him with disgust and he started leaning in for a kiss, but then Cao Pi whacked his father in the head. Making him unconscious. Grabbed Zhen Ji and took off.
"Thank you." She said kissing his cheek.
"My lady, not even my father can have you. Only I."
Zhen Ji looked pleased. But no one ever knew what she would be planning next. The young couple have decided to leave the land of Wei and start a new life some where else.
(Wu)
It has been a couple of days since Xiao was last seen awake. And it has been a couple days that Zhou Yu has not eaten. Finally, today Xiao has woken up and Da (her sister), was there to aid her while Zhou Yu was sleeping. Da gave her sister a warm smile. And Xiao smiled back.
"Xiao, are you feeling alright now?" Da asked.
"Thank you for taking care of me. I appreciate it. But just to ask, where am I?" Xiao asked curiously; while taking a look at her surroundings.
"Sister, please don't joke around right now. Your husband is worried sick about you."
"I…I have a h-husband!"
"Yes, you do. Are you telling me the truth that you have no memory your own where abouts Xiao?
"Well, seeing how this place doesn't come to mind at all…NOPE! Why? Is this place supposed to be so important?" Xiao asked putting her index finger over her lips.
"Xiao, I am your sister, Da Qiao. You're eighteen, and happily married to a smart and wonderful strategist of a kingdom called Wu. I am married to the prince of Wu so it makes us royalty."
"Oh, wow this is really giving me a head ache! Are you sure about this. Well just another question but…I was wondering…Is my husband cute!" Xiao asked with a huge grin on her face.
"Well, um I shouldn't say. I have no right to say that about your husband. It would be terribly…wrong."
"No, go ahead just for my own knowledge."
"He's very handsome my young sister."
"Oh yay! I'm glad to hear that. Another question…Where's our mom and dad?"
"Xiao…are p-parents died along time ago. Are mother died of heart failure. And are father died after we got married."
"Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. I wish I could remember something of them."
"Mm, well. I better notify your husband about you and memory loss. Please Xiao don't wander off some where he will be right in."
"Okay! I won't wander around!" Xiao said smiling.
(A couple minutes later….)
"Xiao, you're alright!" Zhou Yu said happily. Wrapping his arms around Xiao.
"I'm sorry but are you my husband, my sister told me about?"
"…Xiao."
"Did she not tell you that I guess it's called 'Memory Loss?"
"…"
"Please answer me I don't want to seem as if I'm talking to myself. And look like a dope."
"Y-yes Xiao I'm your husband. Zhou Yu."
"My, you are handsome. May I ask you something?" Xiao said grabbing Zhou Yu's hands.
"Of course, anything for you."
"How old are you?" Xiao said embarrassed.
"I'm twenty-four."
"Wow, you're way too old for me!" Xiao said giggling.
"Xiao…I don't know if are relationship will last."
"Why not? We can start over. All fresh!"
"Now that you have lost your memory I'm having second thoughts. That and I am in love with someone else. While you were resting for the last four days I have gotten to know her and she seems…perfect."
"Mm, b-but! Even though I can't remember you. I still know as if you're here with me! You can't leave me. Not now. I-I remember the ring you gave me!"
"What color is it?" Zhou Yu asked tilting down his head.
"Isn't it Red!"
"No. It's purple and you always put it in your Jewelry box."
"Zhou Yu, I know that deep down inside I still love you! You have to give me a chance!"
"Fine. I will give us…two weeks to see if you remember me. If you don't…well you know what will happen." Zhou Yu said "But, for now I don't feel like talking. I'll leave you alone."
As
Zhou Yu got up and started walking towards the door Xiao popped up
stood in front of Zhou Yu. Although it didn't make much of a
difference. She hugged Zhou Yu, tightly and kissed him. Except she
had noticed one thing. Zhou Yu was only standing there…staring at
something behind her...
Da.
