Chapter 8: Two ends meet
"Old man, until when do you plan to stand there doing nothing?" the woman resented as she crossed her arms to her chest "Obnoxious little-" Huang Zhong exclaimed but was cut off "Fine then, stay here as long as you want, I'm going to find Lord Jiang Wei and Lord Zhao Yun, lazy old geezer" and with that she came to a decision and walked away
"Hey wait up, love" the former pirate Gan Ning called out as he abruptly grabbed hold of her hand. She raised a brow and without warning she slapped him hard, "Touch me again, and you'll be receiving more than just a slap!" "Feisty aren't you, um..." "Cobra" "Huh?" Gan Ning mumbled, still rubbing his soar cheek "My name" "Weird name, you an outsider or something?" he asked, "Pretty much, but that is none of your business" she replied. "Are you coming with me?"
"Of course, Love" Gan Ning said, taking his chance to drape his arm around her shoulder. He was then rewarded by another hard smack in the face "I said my name is Cobra, and stop touching me, you fiend!" "(Ouch, this woman is strong but damn she's hot?!) My name by the way milady is Gan Ning, Gan Ning of the bells" "Oh. Its not as if I was asking but fine, shall we get going, Lord Gan Ning?" Cobra asked as the former pirate nodded and followed her lead
"Whoa! That girl's hot!" Sun Quan complemented "Just a bad attitude" Da added, a bit irritated "Your idiotic friend seems to have the hots for her though!" the old man, Huang Zhong butted in "Huh? But Lady Sun? Won't she get jealous or anything?" Da muttered, worriedly "Knowing my sister, she won't really care"
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
Meanwhile in the depth of the forest, the tiger general was still lamenting, his comrades feeling a bit piteous but soon enough decided for the best. "I shall be going ahead if its fine with you Zhao Yun" Zhou Yu asked as the spear general nodded "Don't worry I can handle myself, just hurry up and save her!" he muttered "What are you saying!? We can't just leave you here!" Jiang Wei protested "Either that or you risk Xiao Qiao being "touched" by big, fat and ugly!"
"I can't believe you! You can still joke around in your condition" Jiang Wei added, shaking his head in dismay "If you want I can look after Mr- sourpuss here" Lu Xun suddenly announced "Hn, I appreciate the hospitality but-" Zhao Yun stammered only to be ignored "Zhou Yu what do you say?" the Wu tactician asked "Very well, Lu Xun will aid Lord Zhao Yun, Sun Ce and I will charge towards the enemy's main camp and-" Zhou Yu directed "The Lady Wu and I will go back to Shu's main camp and ask for back up for the coming battle. I'm sure Dong Zhuo has something up his sleeves still" Jiang Wei cut in as the Wu commander nodded in agreement "Shang Xiang take care of yourself!" Su Ce shouted out as they went different directions, for they're designated tasks.
Both Zhou Yu and Sun Ce rushed deeper to the woods. There were a few enemy soldiers lurking behind the bushes but they were easily disposed off. "Hey! Zhou Yu, you don't think Xiao has fallen for Zhao Yun?" Ce asked out of the blue "I don't know but either way I'll take her back, I'll court her again if I have too" his companion replied seriously "Nice one Zhou Yu, don't worry I'm right behind you all the way" "Thanks Ce, I swear I'll rescue her from Dong Zhuo, after which...I'll never let her out of my grasp again" the Wu commander murmured as his friend grinned.
After some time, both Zhou Yu and Sun Ce came to a halt as they came face to face with none other but Dong Zhuo, Xiao Qiao was held in the waist and was unconscious. Not only that but she also seemed to have been bruised in her previous encounters "DONG ZHUO!!!!" Zhou Yu shouted out, unsheathing his long sword "You seemed to have gotten faster than expected! But insects such as yourselves don't stand much against me and my army" "Shut up PIG! Return Xiao and I might spare you!" Zhou Yu exclaimed "How dare you call me such names, prepare to be crushed, you worm!! LU BU!!!! Annihilate them all!" Dong Zhuo ordered as his mightiest and most feared warrior appeared.
"Seriously, Do we have a chance against this creep" Ce muttered as he drew out his "Overlord" "(Damn pig! Rot in hell)" Zhou Yu flamed ignoring the others resentments "Ce, go distract Lu Bu while I go for Dong Zhuo" "No problem, make sure you beat the hell out of that swine!" his companion assured as he faced Lu Bu and his "sky scorcher" while Zhou Yu on the other hand ran after Dong Zhuo.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
On the other hand, Lu Xun treated some of Zhao Yun's injuries. "How are you feeling, Lord Zilong?" The Wu tactician asked, "Fine, thanks to you." "Um, its my pleasure. Do you think we should be getting back, Lord Sun Quan, Lady Qiao and Gan Ning must be getting worried?" "I guess so, and knowing old Huang Zhong, I bet he'll be scolding us sooner or later" Zhao Yun murmured as he stood up, the young tactician supporting him. " Here, hold on to me?" Lu Xun offered as the spear general complied.
The 2 walked in a slow pace keeping their silence but not long after they were greeted by a buxom woman along the way "Lord Zhao Yun!" the female voice said, catching the two's attention. The spear general raised his head as the female figure came intact, "Oh! Its you Cobra!" Zhao Yun muttered, "What happened to you? Umm...is he your um...." Cobra asked gawking at the young tactician
"Don't say a word!" the spear general barked, feeling a faint blush coming up "Hey! Lu Xun!" Gan Ning suddenly cried out "You know him?" the woman turned to the former pirate "Of course, Love" he answered smugly as another hard smack hit him hard in the face "Are you deaf or something! One more of your flirting and I'll make sure you're dead!" "(Ts, women nowadays...but as they say the more ya hate the deeper ya love. Hehehe)" Gan Ning thought, grinning widely to himself.
"Zhao Yun who is she?" Lu Xun asked "She's Cobra, one of Shu's backup troops." "Cobra? Is that name foreign?" "Guess so, Cobra never did tell us much about herself, all we know is that she was a pirate from overseas" "A pirate? I can see why she an Gan Ning got along so well..." Lu Xun smirked as the spear general nodded,
"Anyway, Cobra have you met with Huang Zhong?" Zhao Yun asked the woman "Yah, I left the old man where I found him, he won't get his lazy ass to move" Cobra explained "Where's Lord Jiang Wei by the way?"
"He's with lady Sun of Wu" the spear general said "What!?! Lady Sun I-is with hi-him!" Gan Ning muttered. "(Damn that bastard)" "what are you complaining about, isn't Lady Cobra your new-?" Lu Xun asked enough for only the former pirated to hear. " Quit that! I'm still hitting on her!" "Whatever you say..."
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
Zhou Yu ran after Dong Zhuo alone, he easily eluded the enemy soldiers but was forced to take into action one way or another "Damn! How can that bastard run so fast?" he muttered continuing on his pursue. "Prepare to die, insect!!" Dong Zhuo shouted as he dropped the unconscious Xiao Qiao to the ground "You'll pay what you did to my wife you pig!!" "Grrr.... Once I dispose of you, the beautiful Qiao, will be mine, I'll wed her and we'll have lots of children!" Dong Zhuo exclaimed as the Wu commander turned pale and a bit blue of the thought "That's absurd! Who would want to be touched by someone li-like yourself....and I definitely wont let you lay even a finger on her!" Zhou Yu enraged as he lunged for his opponent.
The clash of metal was deafening, as Dong Zhuo parried most of Zhou Yu's assaults, by then Xiao Qiao was coming too. "Xiao!" Zhou Yu exclaimed in relief as he kept his standard poise. "Insecccct!" Dong Zhuo exclaimed charging at his adversary, a group of well-trained militia coming from behind him.
"(Zhou Yu....)" Xiao Qiao started to stir as her focus came clear.
"What the!?" Zhou Yu exclaimed. He was able to block Dong Zhuo's first attack but having to deal with several others was going to be much difficult "Blast you cheating scum!" The Wu commander cursed as he slashed 2 soldiers from behind. "He! All of you Attack this puny insect!!!" Dong Zhuo structured, as a group of men came lunging toward the Wu head.
"(Zhou Yu...)" The girl murmured again. She was having difficulty getting up and practically cursed herself for that but strived to do so nevertheless.
Zhou Yu was held by a group, he was being outnumbered by a bunch of no good for nothing barbarians. Soon after Dong Zhuo walked towards him, his sword "horror" outstretched and aimed directly to his throat. "Another insect crushed" he mumbled in satisfaction but even before the sharp blade touched the man a hard object came flying towards his assailant and hitting him directly in the head.
"Don't pick on Zhou Yu! You bastard!!" a small familiar voice exclaimed
"Xiao Qiao!" Zhou Yu exclaimed, as he blushed a bit after seeing her. Her long brown hair was untied, making her look, a bit mature. Her bangs covered part of her pallid at the same time flustered face. She was still weak as she was barely able to keep herself up. Xiao also had a deep injury in her left arm, which was presumed to have been a cause of her encounter with Li Shun.
The Wu commander took the opportunity to knock his opponents down as he then rushed to the girl. "Xiao Qiao!" he exclaimed, taking her in his arms, and hugging her firmly The girl was stunned, it wasn't really the type of welcome she had been expecting, after all she was still a defector "So you're not mad?" the girl muttered, nervously "Mad of what?" he asked, as he had no intention of letting her go. Not just yet "...For me defecting to Shu" she replied still a bit uncomfortable
"No..." Zhou Yu mumbled softly "Just upset since you kissed Zilong earlier" "I-I didn't kiss him!!" the girl quickly protested, as she turned deep red "Really?!" "Really!!!" the girl exclaimed as Zhou Yu chuckled feeling Xiao relax in his grasp.
Soon enough, Zhou Yu pulled away "I'll never let you out of my sight again...never" he murmured as he kissed the girl lightly in the forehead making her blush. Zhou Yu smiled and cupped the girl's chin; he was inching closer towards her and as soon as they're lips were millimeters away--
"SCUMS!!! How dare you make love and ignore my well being!!" Dong Zhuo's voice echoed as the 2 automatically moved away from each other "(Damn it! Just a few more second and I could have kissed her!) Zhou Yu thought as he glared at the intruder evilly. Xiao Qiao on the other hand was blushing hard and avoided eye contact.
"You may have won this time but remember, I still have the upper hand! Retreat for now!! We shall ally with the Nanman! Then I shall rule the 3 kingdoms!" Dong Zhuo exclaimed "(Doesn't fatso ever give up?!)" Xiao Qiao though as Zhou Yu was still a bit frustrated of the wasted opportunity "Damn you Dong Zhuo, I swear I'll kill you the next time..."
