A/N: To all my reviewers, I'm really really sorry for the very late update.
My stupid computer broke down so I had it pulled out. Something went wrong
with my hard disk or something so it erased all my files including my
stories! T_T Anyway, that's the reason I took really long! Sorry for
leaving it hanging for such a long time
Zhao Yun: Evil author!!!!
A/N: Anyway here's the much awaited chapter! Please read and review!
Chapter 14: Comfort
"Zhou Yu!" Xiao Qiao cried out as she hurriedly approached the bleeding Wu commander
"Xiao Qiao, what are you doing?! Stay back..." the man muttered as he grasped his right arm which was badly injured and caused much of a blood loss.
"Zhou Yu, why do you have to be so stubborn!!" Xiao Qiao bursted out as Zhou Yu glanced at her almost apologetically. He then softly caressed the girl's cheeks with the back of his palm and smiled.
"Xiao Qiao, I promise you that I'll win this match! I will never let that obese pig, Dong Zhuo touch you!" he muttered confidently, "I also remember promising you that you won't become a widow...I won't let you!" he continue as he rose up to his feet then once again facing his opponent in the battle field.
Zhou Yu grasped his ancient swords, despite the deep gash he received earlier. He felt a bit insulted since Lu Bu seemed to have had discarded him, as the he busied himself instead, on cleaning his blood-stained spear.
"I won't lose!" Zhou Yu muttered as he took an attacking stance, which more or less caught the attention of the dreaded warrior.
"You still wish to fight?! Ha! Such foolishness!" Lu Bu barked as he faced the Wu commander and directing his spear directly on his opponent's throat. "Die you worthless scum!!!!" Lu Bu let out a loud battle cry as he rushed for Zhou Yu who readied himself for the impending assault.
Zhou Yu was able parry most of the taller man's attacks which got his foe rather impatient and brash "You think you can win by simply evading" Lu Bu mocked as a hard fist came swinging down the Wu commander's abdomen which caused him to be flung a little back and cough up blood all the same.
By then Xiao Qiao was looking helplessly, she knew Zhou Yu would only scold her if she did anything reckless but her husband was slowly being tortured...
Zhou Yu once again rose to his feet, aimed his long sword at Lu Bu while he tried desperately to keep his composure. "Never..." he stuttered now taking initiative as he lunged at his opponent. For a moment Lu Bu was caught off guard as the Wu general was successful on laying a slight injury along the man's side. "Scum!!" the warrior cursed as he backed away for a moment then immediately counter attacked.
Several minutes passed and still the battle had not been fully decided or was it?
As the 2 generals paced away from each other Zhou Yu, suddenly grinned, as he brushed his long tress with his the tip of his fingers.
"What's so funny?!" Lu Bu barked
"The battle has been decided---I am the winner!"
"What did you say you little!?!" Lu Bu exclaimed only to feel a sudden queasiness
" Haven't you noticed?" Zhou Yu began, still trying to catch his breath "Ancient swords is equipped with a poison orb. When I was able to pierce through your side by luck a while ago I was sure that the poison had immediately entered your system but I also presumed that it might take some time to fully spread."
Lu Bu growled as he tried to stand up, only to resort to futility " Don't fight it, the poison will only spread faster!" the Wu commander informed "Besides that poison was specially made...."
"Hn, why don't you kill me now, you have your chance?!" Lu Bu exclaimed but Zhou Yu ignored him and took out a small pouch from his waistband. He took out a small round pill and threw it to the now vulnerable general
"What is this?!"
"An antidote!"
"You're a fool!"
"Maybe"
"You'll regret this"
"Perhaps"
"Then Why?"
"Why? Why do you serve under someone as evil as Dong Zhuo?!"
"That is none of your concern!!"
"Then neither is this. My battle is not with you but with him!" Zhou Yu countered, "I must admit, I wouldn't have had a chance against you if I hadn't used such foul deception! I thank you for giving me an opportunity to duel with you!"
"Hmph! You're not as bad!" Lu Bu smirked as he swallowed the pill within less than a second "Next time I won't be so soft to give you an opportunity to be able to employ such deceit!" he continued as the Wu commander nodded
"Xiao Qiao let's go!" Zhou Yu called out as the girl rushed towards him. "By the way..." the Wu commander again turned back to the mighty warrior.
"Why do you serve under someone as evil Dong Zhuo, you do know that you are much stronger that him or he will ever be..."
"I do this for a reason...like you" was the simple reply, the Wu commander nodded as he and Xiao Qiao mounted on red hare, which Lu Bu simply approved of them to use.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
"Where near shore!" Gan Ning shouted out to his fellowmen as he approached Cobra who was leaning on the pole along deck. "Sea sick love?" he asked taking the opportunity to drape an arm around her shoulder only to be slapped.
"Touch me and DIE!" The woman hissed as she glared at the former pirate who was cowering in a corner while rubbing his marked cheek.
" Hn, fine!" the man pouted, "By the way Cobra, when have you been serving under Shu?"
Cobra looked at him questioningly "Why do you ask?"
"Curious! Afterall, I would want to get to know you more, love"
"Hmph! Then it is none of your business!"
"That is so common of you to quote such thing. You know when I was young I met a girl as brash as you were. She was around 8 or so. Her village was being attacked by bandits weirdly enough that girl was the only one who stood up and fought. The Funny thing was she held a sword twice her weight so she always stumbled down." Gan Ning chuckled, as Cobra turned crimson while she listened intently. "I killed off those bandits in an instant but instead of being thanked that girl pushed me and started screaming!"
"Scr-screaming?"
"She was saying something like she could have had handled those guys by her self and know she owes me because I butted in her business!" the former pirate laughed
"Oh. What was her name?"
"I never got to ask her. I left all to soon, before even having a chance to meet with her again." He replied, "You know...she had the same brown hair like yours. The same eyes not to mention the same HARD TO GET attitude!" Gan Ning exclaimed only to be slapped once again!
"Don't compare me with your whores!" Cobra exclaimed as she rose up and left the man, in the same corner that she left him. The former pirate grinned to himself, was she actually jealous when she said that?
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
A fierce battle was insured between the Shu tiger general and the Nanman goddess of fire but the winner came to be none other that Zhao Zilong.
"Zi-long!!" A voice came from afar as Zhao Yun recognized to whom it belonged too. Zhang He.
"About time you 4 got here!" Zhao Yun glared as Lu Xun, Shang Xiang, Zhen Ji and Zhang He smiled innocently at him
"Zilong! Where is my Lord Jiang Wei if I may ask?" Zhen Ji asked
"He went on ahead, it would be best if we went as well, Cobra and the others are probably on the way, and if I'm correct only Dong Zhuo and a few of his troops remain. That includes Lady Diao Chan" Zhao Yun explained as both Zhang He and Lu Xun flinched after hearing the woman's name
"Diao chan you say? The songstress?" Zhen Ji asked as Zhang He glared at her for discussing such matters.
"Yes, rumors say that she is in the battlefield to risk her life for her lord. I can't believe she would die for someone as Dong Zhuo!"
"Aa. Worried? You seem to know much about her," the woman teased as Zhao Yun blushed "Let me guess the gallant tiger general have been crushing on the songstress ever since?" she continued as Zhang He raised a brow at her. Obviously, the woman's aim was to get in the nerves of her other companion.
"That is none of you concern!" the spear general growled as he rushed ahead of his comrades.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
Zhou Yu allowed Xiao Qiao to take the rein of the mare as he settled himself behind her. His hands were around the girl's slender waist and his head rested in her back; eyes closed and contented "Zhou Yu are you alright?" Xiao asked making sure red hare was not pacing to fast.
"Yes" Zhou Yu whispered nuzzling her neck as she simply smiled
"You were really cool, Zhou Yu! Dueling Lu Bu like that!" Xiao murmured
"Hmm, and its all thanks to you my little Qiao!" the man replied as the girl smiled behind his back.
"Xiao Qiao..." the Wu commander lazily opened an eye as they neared the enemy encampment "I've been wanting to tell you"
"What is it?"
"Do yo-do you like Zhao Yun?" he blurted out as Xiao blushed,
"Ye-yes" she answered honestly and ever so innocently making Zhou Yu snap his eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Yo-You like him?!!!"
"Ki-kind off!" Xiao smiled as the Wu commander not only felt down but somewhat felt horrible. His Qiao had replaced him with that blasted Shu general?!
"It's the kind of 'like' I feel when I'm around Lu Xun, Lady Sun, Lord Quan, Gan Ning and the rest! The same when I'm around Lord Jiang Wei, Lady Cobra and lady Yue Ying" the girl continued not really noticing the sudden reaction of her husband a few minutes ago.
"So there's nothing more?" Zhou Yu questioned.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"No-nothing!!!" the man quickly defended himself as the girl grinned menacingly
"Oh I see, My lord is jealous..." Xiao grinned as she noticed the sudden chance of color in Zhou Yu's face.
"I-its not what you think...!"
"Its fine! Since I'll never ever cheat on you!" Xiao smiled at him "Since I really really love you Zhou Yu!" she exclaimed happily as the Wu commander gave out a long sigh as he rested his head on the girl's back once again, his arms encircled around her waist protectively but lightly. Soon enough the Wu general closed his eyes, smiled to himself, merely feeling warm and contented...
