Calm before the Storm
With both their outer castles taken Liu Bei's army was in dire straits. They were all preparing for their next battle; it would have to be a defensive battle as they would be all three of their opponents would be attacking them simultaneously. Xingcai was relieved when Liu Shan returned safety. She went to meet with him in his chambers.
"Lord Liu Shan?"
He turned around and smiled, "Xingcai," His smiled faded, "Well, this certainly have taken a turn for the worst."
"Don't say that...We still have a chance, however slight." She replied, he sighed, "I guess...I guess you're right. But everything depends on reinforcements from Wu arriving in time."
She nodded.
"I'm sure they'll make it," She stated, "So, I take it you are going to fight?"
Liu Shan nodded. Xingcai sighed and then made up her mind.
"Well then, I'll be fighting too, I've got everything ready. It's time I made amends for my part in this chaos."
Liu Shan nodded and then finally he sighed and embraced her.
"Whatever happens, stay safe." He whispered, she returned the embrace, "I will, I promise. We'll get through this together."
They separated and headed off to prepare for the upcoming battle, by tomorrow the battle would begin.
Meanwhile Liu Bei and Shangxiang were within their chambers. Shangxiang noticed that Liu Bei was distracted, staring out of the window.
"My Lord?" She questioned him nervously; he turned to face her, "Is something troubling you?"
He lowered his gaze and finally he replied.
"I am concerned, for the fate of my son, for lady Xingcai, for us all." He stated, "What if your father is too late with his reinforcements."
Shangxiang also lowered her head.
"I understand your concern but, we must have faith." She replied, "We are desperate and they are our only hope."
Liu Bei nodded and walked over to her and smiled.
"You are right; we just need to have faith." He stated as he gentled reached out and touched her cheek, she smiled and nodded. "We can't do anything if we're tired, let's get some sleep."
Liu Bei agreed and they prepared for bed. All throughout the castle things were tense. Those that would play a major part in the battle were attempting to sleep and get some rest, hopefully to conserve their strength for the battle the following day. Dong Zhuo, Cao-Cao and Yuan Shao were all prepared and soon their armies were ready too. At dawn the following day they marched a large portion of their army, leaving the rest to guard what they had already claimed. They soon arrived within view of Xuzhou and saw that Liu Bei's army was ready for them; it was time for them to fight. Dong Zhuo's cruel lecherous nature pitted against Liu Bei's benevolence and Liu Shan's true love. It was coming down to a large scale battle were the slightest mistake would spell disaster for the one who made it.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
