Hello everyone, heres the next chapter!

Disclaimer: Look at earlier chapters. :)

Chapter 13

May lin peered down at the man who had killed so many. His evil grin brought memories flashing through her head, and a new rage formed deep inside her heart. A new degree of hate. She would kill him no matter what it took. By morning, Shan Yu would be dead.

Mulan rode on, with a line of her friends and her fiance behind her. So far, they were making good timing. With only the full moon as light, they followed May lin's trail. Though as they moved forward, her trail was becoming scarce, almost as if she had expected them to follow her.

"Please let us get there in time." Mulan whispered to herself.

~*~

May lin crouched behind a bush, after slowly, but surely making her way down into the camp. Shan Yu had retreated to a tent, but she could not remember which one it was. Luckily, she remembered which one the ugly skinny guy went into. She could kill him, and lure Shan Yu out when he heard the commotion. Her heart pounded in her ears, racing in her chest, a rush of adrenaline forming. She had to wait for the opportune moment. It came when the ugly one stepped out of the tent.

Shang brought his horse to a halt, when he noticed something from the corner of his eye. Riding up to take a closer look, his eyes widened.

Hoof prints!

"Mulan, hold up!" he shouted.

Mulan stopped abruptly, causing a train-like collision with all of the horses. Yao, Chan Po, and Ling all fell off of their horses and into the snow. Mulan's eyes widened in an 'oops' fashion, as she looked down at her friends. She turned her horse, and rode up to her husband-to- be.

"What is it?" she asked him curiously.

Then, following his gaze, her eyes traveled down to the barely visible hoof prints. Her mouth formed into an 'o,' and she turned to her friends who had recovered from the fall.

"Guys this way," she informed.

Simultaneously, the three men turned and followed Mulan and Shang down the narrow path.

Mushu shouted an enthusiastic "Onward!" with Cri-kee echoing his words.

She watched as the skinny man walked, slow and slinky.

"Just wait..." she kept thinking to herself.

Her stance was one of a tiger, ready to pounce. And as soon as he was far enough in the open, May Lin jumped from behind the bush, and ran at the scraggly man with a banshee like shriek..........

A/n: I know I haven't updated in a very long time. I apologize. My writers block has the best of me right now, and 'inspiration' to write chapters for certain stories comes few and far between. I hope this chapter was OK, I tried but I'm not sure. Oh and one more thing, I know May Lin should be spelt Mei lin, but I spelt it the other way on purpose, that's how I wanted to spell it, lol. I'll try to update as soon as I can. I think *knocks on wood* my writers block is fading *cheers*.

OK, Bye for now. And PLEASE review! Thanks. :)
