A/N Note: If you think I'm making some of the guys, out of character please tell, me because I'm not too sure myself. Also, I hope you don't think there is too much original and too little fanfiction. If you do think so, just wait a while more please...
I'll also find it very helpful if you do review because, well, its not that hard and its nice to just hear one dang review XD
Leon sighed. "It is another unfortunate side effect of the medication."
"Why didn't you tell us until now?!" asked Cao Pi threateningly, grabbing the collar of the white uniform and lifting Leonas up. "If there is something else you're not telling, spit it up now or you'll suffer my wrath!"
"Only half of you will survive," the silver haired man nonchalantly said. "There is nothing you can do for him."
Cao Pi dropped the man from the height he was at with a grimace. He didn't care about the Wu scum, but he disliked the notion of his death. He had just died once, and he would make full use of his new life!
"And?" Lu Xun pressed on. He had a notion the guy was still keeping something, and he wanted to squeeze as much information as possible.
"There is nothing more I can tell you."
"Oh? And what is this 'White Storm' that you lead?" asked Zhuge Liang, pointing his fan at the man arrogantly, but he already guessed that they were a rebel group.
"We are a rebel group targeting to overthrow the government."
Liang was right on the spot, not to his surprise. He was a genius after all.
"As much as I feel for your friend, we cannot dally here any longer. Every second we waste, another person is killed by their terrible ways," Leon urged.
"Are you suggesting we merely leave Zhou Tai here?!" shouted Sun Ce, completely opposed to the idea.
"Ras!" he commanded.
A scrawny man with scraggly grey hair that matched his uniform rushed up the stairs. "Take care of this man."
The small man nodded and, strangely enough, lifted Zhou Tai up without much difficulty and carried him into the room. He then dug through the cabinets for some medical supplies that can relieve pain.
"Now, let's go."
By now, everyone was having doubts on how much they could trust the so called leader of the White Storm. There is no leader without his people. Such a man does not deserve his rank, Liu Bei thought to himself.
"As soon as we get the weapons, let's kill him," Gan Ning suggested. Everyone agreed to some extent, and so it was settled…

Zhou Yu smashed the training robot to pieces with his staff. Equipped with the staff was a gravity manipulator that allowed the man to adjust the gravity field around him anytime he wished.
A few other robots started rapid firing at him, but they all the bullets dropped to the ground as Yu destroyed them all, one by one. As he was the last to try out the shiny toys, he was the one who gave the signal. Now!
Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei surrounded Leon and quickly tried to behead him, but couldn't.
The latter responded to the assault by throwing Guan Yu away, before turning to attack the other two. However, Zhang Fei bear hugged him to hold the guy down.
I had not expected this, thought the worried man, as he tried to break free. His body had Kalluvium in it, but he knew that wasn't enough. Not against Zeronium, no matter how unstable it was.
Why was he betrayed? Didn't he follow his father's words to the letter? Why?!
In his fury, he stuck down Zhang Fei and ran away, flanked by his supposed heroes. Taking a prototype particle gun, which looked more like a toy, and shot Zhang Fei with it. He knew the energy charged particles would mess with the Zeronium.
Sure enough, it did. Heat mounted inside the fierce man's body, accumulating until another of Zeronium's tragic side effects, madness, showed itself.
In his crazed rage, Fei was about to take Liu Bei's life but Guan Yu parried the blow. "What has gotten into you, my brother?!" Like Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, he, Fei and Liu Bei were sworn brothers.
Didn't they swear that in the garden of peach blossoms?
There was the sound of the particle gun charging again, snapping Zhao Yun out his confused daze. With a skillful flick of his spear, he threw the gun into the sky and destroyed it.
Continuing what he had been doing before, the blue draped warrior charged at Leonas, who was barely managing to dodge or block the stabs and swings. But suddenly, the silver haired man stopped in his tracks, allowing his opposition to pierce right through his heart.
If he couldn't win, than mankind shall lose! He decided. All the last hopes this world ever had shall disappear in one great bang!
Leon laughed weakly. "When my heart stops its countdown, so too shall yours..." he told the warriors.
"An ambush? A trap?" guessed Ling Tong, clueless. It was in fact a bomb, or accurately, bombs, planted throughout the whole facility, though the Chinese men did not know what a bomb was anyway.
"Either way, we have to leave now," said a worried Zhou Yu as he headed towards the door at inhuman speed that could be attributed to his metal makeup.
"I agree," said Zhuge Liang, joining in the rush for the door.
But there was one obstacle: Zhang Fei. The heat was starting to cause a meltdown in the Zeronium so his body was starting to melt, though it only appeared like sweat.
"Arghhhhhhhhh…!" was the painful war cry.
"Run, my lord!" shouted Guan Yu as he held off Fei's powerful blows each time they came. "You must escape! Zhao Yun, our lord's face rest in your hands now!"
"No! Didn't we swear that though we could not be born on the same day we would die on the same? Let me join you my brothers!" Yun grabbed hold of his body before Bei could run towards the battle.
A streak of salty water streaked down his cheek as he carried his senior away and followed the only road there was to escape.
As the group ran, that path branched out numerous times, but they just ran and ran and ran, to the exit they hoped was at the end.
A tiny flicker of light, and a small spark of flame, that was all it took. The darkness was consumed by light, and the rushing sound of the boom echoed throughout.
