Okay,This is my first fic ever~ so diss me if you want,i just wanna know

"Okay guys,set camp here,we'll continue to Chi Ban in the mornig."
Sun Ce stated as he dismounted his horse. He had ordered to set camp in a small patch of woods about 100 miles away from Chi Ban, The town in which they were headed. Lu Xun observed the area, Thinking of how good it would be for an ambush.
"Are you skeaming some more?" Lu Xun snaped back to reality and looked to his side to see a certain ex-pirate with a smirk across his face. "Do you ever take a break?" Lu Xun shrugged. "I..wasnt...I was just looking around.." he said as he sat down. Gan Ning just laughed. "You're so full of it,you know that?" Lu Xun just sighed. He couldnt help what he did. It was just the way he was, and he blamed Zhou Yu for that. He was too good and Lu Xun wanted to be better, or at least try to be. But maybe he was trying too hard. He never really enjoyed himself. He was constantly making new startegies for Wu. He sighed, promising himself that he would enjoy his self tomorrow at Chi Ban...or at least try to enjoy his self..

Lu Xun walked to the edge of the woods and stared into the distence. It was morning now and he was the first to rise. He stretched and let out a small yawn. "You're up bright and early...as always" Lu Xun turned to see,who else?, Gan Ning leaning against a tree. He smirked "Look whoes talking.." Lu Xun walked over to him and stood in front of him.
"We should be moving out soon" Lu Xun stated,looking towards the camp grounds. "Lu Xun...what do you plan on doing when we arrive at Chi Ban?" Gan Ning wasnt just curious, he was also worried about Lu Xun. Worried that he wouldnt enjoy his self. Worried that he would just sit up in his room and study his startegies. He didnt want that..he wanted him to have fun,for once. Lu Xun sighed.
"I dont know..I'll see when i get there.." he watched as Sun Ce prepaired for departure, not noticing Gan Ning's concern.
"We should get ready" Lu Xun said as he turned to face Gan Ning once again. Gan Ning took a few steps pass him, then turned and faced him. He sneered and quickly pinned Lu Xun against the tree.
"Listen, Lu Xun, you better have fun today or i swear to god--"
"Sir!" A Soldier ran up and bowed "Lu Xun..uh..Sir! you are needed at the camp site" Gan Ning steped back.
Lu Xun, stil alittle shocked by Gan Ning's actions, nodded
"I'll...be there right away" "Yes,sir!" The soldier then returned back to camp. Gan Ning, now irritated, turned and started towards camp. Lu Xun blinked "Gan Ning--"
"You just remember what i said..." Gan Ning mumbled, not bothering to stop.

Lu Xun wondered what that was all about,its not like he never did anything else. Sure,he studied alot but what does it matter to anyone else what he does?
((Whats the big deal?...Oh well,better attend to my duties..))
And with that he headed back towards camp.

"Sun Ce,sir" he bowed "You needed my assistence?" Sun Ce mounted his horse. "Lu Xun, I want you to lead the Supply Cart to Chi Ban" "The Supply Cart,sir?" This was strange....he was usually wanted at the Front Lines,watching for enemies.
"Did i studder?" Lu Xun stared at the ground. "No,sir.."
"Then carry out my orders. Lets MOVE OUT!" With that said, Sun Ce galloped off on his horse to the front lines. Lu Xun sighed as he walked over and mounted the horse set up for him. He motioned for the soldiers and the Supply Cart to follow and moved out.

--

((I'm a General...why should i be watching a Supply Cart?)) he thought to himself as they moved towards Chi Ban. They were about half way there now and he was bored. Nothing to do from the backlines except maybe eat whats in the cart.
"You,Soldier!" The soldier ran up to the horse and bowed "Yes,sir?" Lu Xun pointed towards the front lines. "Go to Sun Ce and ask if he will reconsider my possition.." "Very well,sir" The soldier ran off to the frontlines. Lu Xun stared,and waited for the soldier to return.

--

"Lord,Sun Ce!" The soldier ran up next to Sun Ce's horse. "What is it, soldier?" Sun Ce looked down at the man. He bowed "Sir, Lord Lu Xun has asked if you would reconsider his possition."
"No, and tell him to stop questioning my orders.." Sun Ce said as he looked back up towards the head of his horse. "Yes,lord" The soldier then bowed and made his way back towards Lu Xun.

Lu Xun waited, impatiently, for the soldier to return. He was tempted to ride up to the front lines and ask Sun Ce himself. But he knew that would make trouble so he just waited. At that moment, The soldier returned and bowed. Lu Xun looked down at him. "Well?" "Sir, Lord Sun Ce has denied your request and stated that you had better stop questioning his orders."
Lu Xun shrugged. "Very well." he hated being in the backlines but there was nothing he could do about it. He sighed and watched ahead for any sign of trouble.

After awhile, they finally had Chi Ban in site. ((Finally)) Lu Xun thought. He could finally get off that damned horse. He noticed that they had stoped moving just at the towns entrance,and wondered what was going on.

--

"Finally...we can get some rest....hmm?" Sun Ce mumbled to himself as he motioned the army to stop. He noticed someone running towards him. It was a woman, She was beautiful. smooth black hair, pale blue eyes,and the face of a China Doll. She came to the horse and bowed. "You are Sun Ce?" she spoke with a soft voice. "That's right,and you are?" He looked down upon her from atop his horse. "Please,forgive me,but i must warn you...you mustnt go any further,CaoCao's army is waiting for you beyond that mountain." She glanced over at the mountain and then returned her view back to the man upon the horse. He himself glanced over at the mountain. "And what makes you so sure about this?" he asked as he looked back down upon her. She looked away,trying to avoid eye contact. "Well you see...I was apart of Caocao's army,I was one of his General's" Sun Ce slightly motioned,and in the blink of an eye 5 soldiers completly surrounded her. "No,please! I'm only trying to help!" She held her hands together,as if praying,up to her chest. "What reason do you have to betray your lord?" He couldnt kill her without knowing her reasons first. "Lord Sun Ce...He treated me as if i was his slave,I know i was his General but that gave him no right to do as he did" She turned her glance towards the ground. "I..i want to help you defeat him.. and his army"

Sun Ce had to think about this. He didnt know if he could trust the girl. But why would she abandon her lord? Her reason seemed solid enough but something didnt seem right. ((Lu Xun wanted something to do,didnt he?)) He snickered. "Very well,But i'm gonna put you under a General's super vision" That being said,he dismounted his horse and motioned for a soldier to his side. "Soldier,go to Lu Xun and tell him i need him at the front lines." "Yes Lord" The Soldier wasted no time in doing as his lord told him to do. He retreated to the backlines with a quick haste. Sun Ce gave a signal for the 5 soldiers surrounding the maiden to step down. "Whats your name?" He asked as he walked, and stood in front of her. "My name is..Dai Shao.." She looked up at him shyly. At that moment,Zhou Yu steped forward to address Sun Ce. "Sun Ce,Do you think its wise to trust her?" Sun Ce glanced over to him. "That's what i'm gonna find out"

Soon after that being said,Lu Xun road up upon his horse. "Lord Sun Ce,you wished to see me?" He dismounted his horse and bowed. "Yeah,i want you to keep an eye on this girl. She was with Caocao and has decided to join us now. She also told me that Caocao and his army are on the other side of that mountain over there,waiting for us. Her name is Dai Shao,dont let her out of your sight" Lu Xun glanced over at her then returned his view to Sun Ce. "Sir,with all-do respect,but should you really be allowing her to join our army? She could be sent here as a spy to extract information" Sun Ce shrugged. "I know that,but if what she says is true, then she can be of great use to us,duncha think?" Lu Xun sighed. Theres no point in protesting anyway. Not as long as its Sun Ce. He always was a stubborn guy. "Very well" ((At least i get away from the backlines)) Sun Ce smirked. "Good! Now,Soldiers,set camp outside of town. General's come with me to the Inn" All the soldiers saluted and went off to set camp as they was told to do. Sun Ce and the rest of the general's,except Lu Xun,headed towards the towns Inn. Zhou Yu gave her a deathly glare,He didnt believe a word she said and worried she was going to cause alot of trouble for the Wu. Gan Ning,on the other hand,found her to be quite cute,and while passing by, shot her a sly grin.

Trying to hide her blush,she turned her gaze towards Lu Xun,who was standing right in front of her. He stared at her with an odd expression. "Um...you are..Lu Xun?" She spoke,trying to break the silence. "Correct" Trying to avoid eye contact,she looked towards the Inn. "You are Wu's main strategist?" Noticing how nervous she was,he decided to look around town,as to not make her even more uncomfortable. "No,that would be Zhou Yu" She snaped her gaze towards him. "Oh yes...i've heard Caocao mention him before..He is the one with long hair?" He glanced at her with an annoyed expression "Thats right" Then started towards the Inn. "Now if you dont mind,i would like to get some rest...come with me.." She blinked,alittle confused. Was he mad that she mentioned Zhou Yu? Well,it was best not to upset him more..right? "Very well.." She followed him to the Inn, lagging behind a bit.

Lu Xun stood by and waited to find out the location of his room. This wasnt a regular Inn at all,It was just a house,with a few changes. No kitchen,no living room,just 2 bed rooms and a service desk. With only 2 bedrooms,it meant they were going to have to share the rooms with one another. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce in one and Lu Xun and Gan Ning in the other. But what of the girl?

It was so quiet and she hated the silence. It reminded her of the calm before the storm,or as she remembered it,the calm before the battle. "Um....Lord Lu Xun?" She finally broke the silence with her soft voice. Lu Xun turned to her. He wondered what was it this time? "Yes?" She looked upon him,but not into his eyes. "Do you suppose i'll have my own room?" He shrugged. Seeing how that would be imposible unless someone gave their room up. He sighed,knowing what this was going to lead to. "I need you in my room" She blinked and turned away hiding the small blush she felt run across her face. "What for?" He rose an eyebrow wondering what the hell was she thinking. "To tell me the locations of Caocao and his army,of course" She shrugged, feeling alittle embarrassed now. She was always one to jump to conclutions. "Yes...of course" Finally,someone appreared behind the desk. "May i help you?" The man asked,directing his question towards Lu Xun. "Yes,could you point me to the direction of my room?" The man blinked. How hard is it to find a room in a 2 room Inn? Well it was best to ask before doing anyway. The man pointed towards a door on the left of the hall,almost right across from the other room,where,if he was correct,Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were staying. He shrugged and started towards the room. Was Gan Ning already there? If he was,he was going to have to keep his mouth shut for awhile. "Come on,lets go" He mumbled as he walked towards the room,motioning for her to follow. She did just that,followed,without saying a single word.
