Disclaimer: I do not Own Dynasty Warriors 7, nor the characters used in this story, derp.
A/N: I wanted to make a ZhaoxYuanji story badly, because there are barley any up, and the ones that are up, are just really short stories and such. The rating is for the language and "later" chapters (that is if I decide to continue) and well yeah. This POV is based in modern time, and also off of their DLC school outfits. So yeah, please do enjoy and review, because trust me when I say that is motivation.
Seeing You - Chapter 1: Nice to meet you, again.
"Why the hell are you here?" Yuanji shrieked in a very irritated manner, as a certain nuisance got themselves situated in her humble home. Things had been quite stressful for Miss Wang, ever since the start of sophomore year—or, to be more frank, four weeks ago. When she reunited with a very unique duo…
"Zhao, please settle down. It is only 5 minutes into your first class and you are already making a scene," and agitated raven haired male sighed in a husky tone.
"Shi you're just as boring as usual, pull that stick out of your ass and enjoy life for once would'cha," Zhao replied as he sloppily sat down in his chair just as the teacher was about to lecture him on his behavior. "Thank you Sima-kun for controlling your brother. Now then, who has the answer to question 6?" and just as fast as the words spilled from the woman's mouth, a hand shot into the air at a blinding speed, "yes, Wang-chan?"
The blonde cleared her throat and stood up gracefully from her chair. "Excuse my manners ma'am, but I believe it would only be fair to make that slacker answer the question. He did, after all, disrupt your class to begin with. I'm sure his reason for it was pure and that he has all of his work complete," she gave a venomous grin. The brunette shot his head back at her in annoyance before sighing and taking a stand. "Fine then, the answer is -566," he gave a small grin before taking a seat once more. "C-Correct! Good job…" the teacher gave a small smile and continued on with the lecture, while Yuanji on the other hand merely grumbled to herself.
After class Yuanji packed up her belongings and marched straight towards her next class. She would have succeeded if it weren't for a certain wall of a moron halting his movement in front of her, causing her to drop everything in an array of papers and books.
"Nice going there, shorty. Next time don't try to be such a smart ass, 'kay?" Zhao gave her a sarcastic smile, while she merely gave him a sneer. "I should have that right seeing as I am smart, or else I wouldn't even be in this school. I must say I am quite surprised myself that you made it here Zhao." Jin Academy wasn't just any school; it was a school for the academically gifted… or rather, for people with money. Either you got here with your own skills, or your parents; either way you had something. Yuanji originated from a prosperous family, making academics simple and easy to acquire. She never had a doubt in her mind that she could not do something, and she was usually right.
At the age of five, she was introduced to a seven-year-old Zhao and an eight-year-old Shi. Although Shi showed certain levels of etiquette, Zhao was as rude as could be, much to her distaste. And his attitude never changed. He was always lazy, childish, and never afraid to say whatever foolish thing came to mind. The three of them had spent about two years together before they parted ways, for reasons they did not know. And now here she was, standing in front of a 17 year-old version of the same childish Zhao. "Man Yuanji, I always knew you to be kind of bitchy, but I guess it just gets worse with age," he shrugged before feeling the impact of her foot hitting his crotch. "Maybe I wouldn't have to be so 'bitchy' if you would try to act serious for once in your life," she gave a heavy sigh, before collecting the last of her papers, then turning back to the grieving male, "you never change." He watched as she trotted away.
After school had ended, Yuanji walked home down her usual path, thinking over the day's events. She had moved from China to America, and was now residing in Japan. Her only reason for moving was to attend this school. Being orphaned after her father's passing 3 years ago; she had lived with her Aunt in America. Upon deciding she wanted to return to bring honor to her family's name once again, she left America and moved to study abroad in Japan which, much to horror, had lead her to meeting the Sima brothers once more. She sighed contently as she turned down a serene path located in a small wooded area near the school. It had only been a month since she started living on her own, and much to her surprise she was quite overwhelmed. She prayed that America hadn't left too much of a lazy mark on her. She was just about to think of something else to keep her mind focused when she noticed two approaching males. Giving a small prayer in her mind that it wasn't who she thought it was, she looked closer to see that the men were a tad older, and probably did not even attend high school. They were just about to pass each other, and she was about to give a friendly greeting, when one of the men stepped in front of her. "Well, well little girl, walking home from school?" one of the men gave a rough chuckle. Yuanji, keeping her face straight, took a step back. "You know it's dangerous for girls to walk alone," one of the men neared closer to her face, "there are some pretty…disgusting men out there, who would do some pretty disgusting things."
Just as the man was about to reach out and grab her and she was about give him a swift punch in the face and bolt, two large hands grabbed her by her arms and pulled her in, away from the man. The frightened girl was about to give the intruder a swift kick to the groin when she looked up at the face of the last person she expected to see helping her, Zhao Sima. "What the hell?" one of the men yelled out, "sorry, but we found her first, get lost." Yuanji half-expected him to let her go and just walk away or say something stupid, but what came out of his mouth completely and utterly dumbfounded her.
"Don't you dare say such a moronic thing, you imbecile! How dare you try to take advantage of a woman like this, and then you have the courage to say she is yours to keep, like—like property. Unacceptable!" Yuanji could have done anything at that moment, she could have pushed him aside and ran, or even said something about him talking so boldly, but no, she stayed silent. She had never seen Zhao so serious before in her entire life… and it scared her. His voice was dark and his features all visibly tense. She was frightened of this side of him, the serious side she had wanted to see so much.
"You trying to pick a fight here you prick?" one of the men spat, and Zhao gave out a low laugh, "Say Shi, how about just one fight for today, after all, how can I deny a person clearly asking for one?" suddenly the older of the two appeared next to him. " I don't see why not, I apologize about this unfortunate occurrence Yuanji," the girl just gave him a small nod, her eyes a bit wide from the moment. "Well, then. Let's begin, shall we?"
