Chapter Two
After watching for sometime she got up and walked outside. "Alright you two, get inside and change your clothes. I don't need you to get sick."
"Alright." they both answered and walked passed their mother and into their room. She was about to follow, but there was a knock at the entrance. She walked over to the door and pulled it open. On the other side was some she knew. Someone she had meet more than once before.
"Li Mulan. The Emperor requests you to come to the palace imediately."
"Chi Fu." Mulan said with a glare.
"Yes. It is a surprise you still know who I am." he said with a sneer.
They stood there glaring at each other for sometime. Mulan was the one to speak first. "Well, I can't make it. Tell him that I am terribly sorry." she said before starting to close the door.
Chi Fu made a quick move to stop the door before she could close it all the way. "But, you have to come. It's urgent. Your husband's life hangs in the balance." he said his lips curving into a smile.
Mulan stood there, her eyes wide with shock. He know something! "Where is he, Chi Fu?" Mulan asked raising her voice, but not to loud so the twins could hear her.
"Who ever said that I knew where he was? I'm just as confused as you are." he said, the same smile still on his face.
"Mama! Leo jumped off his bed and landed on me. And look he hurt my arm." Lynn said running outside to show her mother what her brother had done to her.
"Ah, you have childern. What a surprise. But how is it raising them when your husband isn't here to help? Not real easy is suppose." he said with a nasty tone.
"Mama? Who is he? I'm scard." Lynn said hiding behind her mother as Chi Fu looked down his nose at her.
Mulan tried not to giggle as she answered her daughter. "No one important sweetheart. Now, I'll look at your arm when I'm done. Ok?" Mulan asked moving down to Lynn's level and holding her hands.
"Yes mama." she answered. Mulan stood up again to look at Chi Fu hideous face. He can make a baby cry. Lynn is even afraid of him. "As I was saying, I can't leave."
"But look at the face of your daughter, do you really want her growing up not knowing her father? And she looks just like him. But she has your eyes." he asked bending to Lynn's level like Mulan had done seconds ago. When he reached Lynn, she pulled the skirt of her mother's dress to hide herself. Mulan watched as Chi Fu lowered himself down to where Lynn was standing. She watched as Lynn hid behind her skirt. She watched as he stood up straight again.
"Lynn, I found you." Leo said running up behind his sister, but stopped when he saw Chi Fu. "Mama, why is there a scrawny man standing in the gate door?"
"Another one. And he looks just like his father to. But he also has your eyes." he said as Leo pulled his wooden sword out as to attack Chi Fu.
"I'm not leaving Chi Fu, I'm staying here! Kids go inside." Mulan said as she attemted to close the door again.
"Now, now. I won't hurt you. Or your childern. All I want is for you to come with me to the palace." he said as the same smile crossed his features.
"What about my childern? They have no one here." she snapped at him.
"I can take care of that." he said snapping his fingers together. Mulan looked on either side of him and saw two big men standing there. Chi Fu snapped his fingers again and they moved toward her, Lynn, and Leo.
"Lynn, Leo, run!" she said turning around and heading for the house. Leo and Lynn five feet in front of her.
"You grab Mulan, and you grab the kids." she heard Chi Fu say from behind her.
"Don't look back! Keep running!" she yelled as Leo and Lynn stopped to look at their mother. One of the big men was closing in on her, and the other close behind. "If you get to the house before I do, you know where to go!" she yelled almost tripping on her skirt.
"You can run, but you can hide." Chi Fu said from the doorway as he watched his henchmen reach out to grab Mulan around the middle.
Lynn heard a scream come from behind her. She was going to look back, but Leo had grabbed her upper arm to prevent her. She knew that her mother had been caught. And they two where close to being caught. "3 more feet and we're in the house. We run straight to Mama's room and under the bed to the trap door." Leo whispered to Lynn. She nodded in return. There was another scream from behind them. "Let me go!" They heard there mother say as they closed the front door behind them.
"Lynn, hurry." Leo said holding the door up as high as it could go under the bed. Lynn climbed in first and Leo behind her. "Shh."
"Come out. Come out you little brats. We arn't going to hurt you." They heard the voice of one of the hentchmen, and the sound of his shoes on the wood floor.
"Forget it. We have what we came for." Chi Fu said from the doorway. They could hear both pairs of shoes disappear down the hall, then heard nothing.
"Leo, what do we do? They took Mama." Lynn asked as she and Leo climbed out of the trap door.
"I don't know. We could go to Grandfather and Grandmother's house." Leo suggested.
"But they're in the next town and that's miles from here. And if we did make it there, they'll never believe us." Lynn protested.
"No, but Great Granny would. Mama was her favorite." Leo said.
"Mama was her only granddaughter. No, I think that we should follow that scrawny man and see where they're taking her." Lynn answered walking to her room to start packing.
"But Lynn, we could get caught. And then no one would be able to help us, or Mama." Leo said grabbing his bag to.
"What about Papa, who's going to help him?" Lynn asked putting another outfit in her bag.
"I don't know. Lynn, you'd be better off with some of my pants. You don't want to wreck your dresses." Leo said handing her two pairs of his pants.
Lynn looked at the pants Leo was holding then down to her dresses she had just packed. "Your right." she said taking them from him.
"We'll have to travel light. But have enough supplies to get us where we need." Leo said packing his bag with some supplies he had sitting on his side table.
"Yes. But how are we traveling? We can't use Khan because Mama borrowed him to Grandpapa." Lynn asked walking to the door.
"We use Bai." Leo said following her out.
"But he's not ready to be riden." Lynn said going to the kitchen to pack some food.
"But he's the perfect size as to not get caught." Leo answered puting food in a sack he was holding.
"Alright, I'm ready." Lynn said walking to the front door, Leo right behind her.
"Yes, let's go. But we have to cross the yard carefully. The scrawny man could have one of his men waiting for us to do something." Leo said opening the door slowly.
"Leo? How are we going to defend ourselves?" Lynn asked remembering about weapons.
Leo closed the door. "Father had some swords in the practice hall. We can use them." Leo said turning to go down the hall to their father's practice hall. It hadn't been used since their father left for war 5 years ago.
"Leo, all of Papa's swords are to big for us." Lynn said looking at all the swords their father owned. One inperticularly, a crucked jagged one. "This is different. Leo, why is there a crucked jagged one with the rest of them? And why is it in a glass case?" Lynn asked, refering to Shan Yu's sword.
"Not sure. But I think Mama said that it belonged to Shan Yu. The one that she and Papa got rid of. Here, these are small enough for us." Leo answered handing her one of the many dagger that had been hanging on the wall.
"Thanks. Let's go." Lynn said taking one last look at the sword before leaving.
"Chi Fu! You'll never get away with this!" Mulan said from one of the henchmen's horse.
"I think I just did." Chi Fu said as they raced down the road.
I hope Lynn and Leo are safe. Mulan thought as she sat in front of the man that had caught her.
"You know, your brats may have gotten away from me, but I will guarentee that they won't get away when I go back to find them." Chi Fu said from the front.
"They're smarter than you think Chi Fu." Mulan said from the arms of her campive.
"We'll see." Chi Fu answered with a sly grin.
Okay I had to keep redoing this chapter cause I wasn't liking it, and it wasn't going to the way I needed it to. So that's why it took me so long to update. That and school. Speaking of which, I should probably do my algebra homework. So I gots to go. REVIEW! Mess531y. And I know it's short, but the next chapter is being typed as we speak. But I don't know how long your going to have to wait to get the next chapter. Shouldn't be long, but we only have a month and a half of school left and when it ends, there should be LOTS of updates.
