Chapter 11

May Lin sat at her vanity table staring into the mirror. She had gotten so angry earlier. Really she was just being a soar loser. She hated the fact that Mulan had beaten her in their match earlier. But oh well, it just showed that she needed to work harder. For her plan to work, she needed to be in literally tiptop shape. May Lin sighed and applied the rest of her make-up. She stood up, looked herself over, nodded in satisfaction and headed down to the great hall.

As always, the great hall looked beautiful for dinner. Everyone ate and talked happily amungst eachother. Mulan and all the other women were dressed their best. Mulan was grteful she didn't have to wear the white make-up she hated all over her face, she was able to wear her own make-up as were all theother women. 'Anyway' Mulan thought. She was trying to keep her mind occupied, so she wouldn't think about what Shang wanted her to meet him on the roof for. She was afraid he wanted to tell her somthing bad, and wanted to tell her where no one could hear. She was ripped out of her thoughts when the food was served. She didn't have much of a appitite, but decided to be respectful and eat anyway.

Shang was so nervous, he kept spacing out, and he was actually shaking. A thousand thoughts ran through his head at the same time. What if Mulan said no? What if he couldn't ask her, and he chickened out? He shook his head to clear his thoughts as the food was served.

May Lin was excited, it was going down tonight! Shang was going to propose to Mulan! She hoped that everything would run smothly for them. As the food was served, a single thought ran through her head: She had to eat quickly, she had to go and help Mushu and Crikee, once everything was done, she had decided she was going to move foward with the last part of her plan, take action.

After dinner was served, Mulan began to head for the roof. She quickly stopped. She couldn't go through with it, she didn't want to hear what the bad thing Shang had to tell her was. She had somehow managed to convince herself that Shang's news was bad. With that, Mulan headed back towards her room.

It was dark outside by now, and Shang had everything set. Now therest was up to May Lin, Mushu, and Crikee to get Mulan to go to the roof. He knew Mulan may end up thinking what he had to tell her was bad, she had done it before. Like the time he wanted to surprise her and give hr the news of her becoming Captain and him General. She ended up not showing up to the picnic he had set up. Later when he went to see her she ended up telling him why she didn't show up, she thought he was going to tell her somthing bad. So, this time he was prepared. Plus, it gave him more time to prepare him self to ask Mulan the big question.

As Mulan walked down to the hall to her room, Mushu and Crikee stepped out in front of her. She looked down at the red dragon and his companion, "Mushu please move your blocking my way to my room." As she attempted to pass him, Mushu stepped in front of Mulan. "Um Mulan, I have bad news." All of a sudden becoming very nervous, Mulan said "What Mushu?" "Um well you see, our darling May Lin has been hiding a secret from us all." Becoming worried, Mulan said "Mushu what is it?" Pausing for a minute, Mushu spoke. "She hasn't been feeling well, it could be from when she was ya know sick when you uh found her." Mualn gasped "What?" "Oh yeah yeah, you better follow me." Completly forgetting about her delema, Mulan followed Mushu and Crikee to May Lin's room. When they entered May Lin's room, it was dark. Just as Mulan was about to turn on the light, someone came up behind Mulan and put a bag over her head, and guided her out of May Lin's room.

Shang's palms were sweating he was so nervous. Mulan should be there any minute. He looked at the table that he had set up, it had lit candles on it, the flame dancing like a graceful ballerina. He set wine galsses and a bottle of wine on the table and went to stand by the edge of theroof, looking into the darkness. All of a sudden, he heard Mulan's muffled scream.

Mulan felt herself being pushed up some stairs, almost falling she screamed. Where was she being taken?

May Lin opened the door leading onto the roof, pulled the bag off Mulan's head quickly and pushed Mulan onto the roof, waving to Shang as she quickly shut the door.

Mulan looked around at her surroundings. There were Magnolia blossom petals spred all over the floor, they looked beautiful. She looked at the dimly lit surroundings, and made out a table with candles on it. She looked up and saw Shang standing there staring at her. Mulan looked at him and figured out that she was on the roof. She smoothed her ebany hair out with her hands, a nervous habit. Shang walked towards her, and they embraced. Pulling back, Shang spoke "Sorry about that, I had May Lin and Mushu help out." May Lin said "Oh." Figuring out what had happened. Putting his arm around her, Shang guided Mulan to the table and pulled out a chair for her gesuring for her to sit. Mulan sat down at the table and looked at Shang who had sat down as well. "Shang I'm sorry I didn't -" Shang stopped her raising up his hand. "It's ok Mulan, really I thought you might get scared, believe me I was too." Mulan looked quizzicly at Shang "Why would you be scared?" Shang mentally kicked himself for almost giving himself away. "No reason." He said quickly and changed the subject. Shang opened the wine bottle, and poured a glass for himself and Mulan. They sat in silence for a minute, before Shang stood up, and held out his hand to Mulan. "Come here I want to show you somthing." Mulan took her beaus hand and let him guide her to the edge of the roof. "Look up." Shang stood behing Mulan and wrapped his arms around her. Mulan gasped in aw. "Shang it's beautiful, I've never seen so many stars before!" Shang sighed and nodded his head, it was time. He turned Mulan around and looked into her eyes. "Mulan I need to ask you somthing." Mulan suddenly felt butterflys in her stomach. "Okay." Was all she could say. She watched as Shang pulled somthing out of his pocket and kneeled down on one knee. Mulan's butterflys increased. He looked straight into her eyes and said "Fa Mulan, will you marry me?" He opened up the small box and revealed a beautiful sapphire engagement ring. Mulan's eyes widened, and suddenly she felt more happy than she ever had in her whole life. "Yes Li Shang I will marry you." Shang smiled a mile wide and slipped thering onto Mulan's dainty finger. He stood up and at that moment felt all the love he thought he would ever need. The couple emabraced and locked into a passionate kiss. From across the wall, Mushu waited in the tower patiently. When he saw the two begin to kiss, he told Crikee "It's time." He and Crikee lit the fireworks, and they took off into the sky, gracefully spewing bright colors into the night sky as Mulan and Shang kissed.

May Lin set the note down on her pillow, grabbed all her supplies, looked around the room one more time and headed out of the room turning off the lights as she shut the door. She was proceeding with the final step of her plan, she was going after the evil devil that had murdred her people and her family.

Hours later after Mulan and Shang had been on the roof, they were sitting with eachother looking up into the stars, complely content, each feeling as they would never move. All of a sudden, the door to the roof slammed open, and there was Mushu and Crikee both looking absoulutly panicked. Gasping for breath, Mushu said to the pair " Sorry to interupt your love fest, but we have a problem. Our dear May Lin is missing."

Note: Sorry this took so long to get up, I had the worst case of writers blck and it was really annoying. Sorry if theirs grammar mistakes and stuff, I was typing really fast and had like a million ideas running through my head at the same time, I don't have spell check right now, we have to get it fixed. I hope you enjoyed the chapter, I'll post one Asap. I have school and all but I can still add chapters. Please read and review! Thankyou! :)
