Chapter 6 discovered dreams
Mulan quietly stalked into her room and shut the door. What was that matchmaker planning? She sat down on her bed. Something horrible was going to
happen. But when? Mulan thought about it for a while, weighing her options. Walking into Shang's room while he was asleep could get her in trouble. But the
matchmaker was up to no good. But what if she wasn't. Then she would look stupid. Mulan sighed. This was one matter that was truly out of her hands. She blew
out the lamp and laid her head down on the pillow. The bed was comfortable. She had had a long day of riding and training. She felt her eyelids grow heavy and soon
she was asleep.
In her dreams, Mulan was transported to the camp where she had been taught. She was by the pole that she had climbed, only it was dark. Everyone
was asleep. She quickly looked over to Shang's tent. There was a monster dressed in purple. Mulan watched the monster go closer to his tent.
"No stop!" She yelled and lunged at the monster but she was being blocked. Mulan couldn't pass the pole.
"You're too late.." the monster laughed. That laugh sounded like the matchmaker. Mulan hit the air that was holding her back.
"Shang no! SHANG!" She cried out , but it was to no avail. The monster walked into the tent. Mulan felt tears run down her cheeks.
"Mulan, what's wrong?" Mulan turned around and there was Shang, standing behind her. She looked confused.
"There was a monster in your tent. I thought I was too late." She hugged him. He looked shocked.
"I went for a walk I am okay." Mulan wondered if this was his dream or hers. She could still warn him before it's too late.
"Shang, If this is your dream, I have to tell you. I over heard the matchmaker and Sui-Yen, they're planning something horrible. You have to leave your
room immediately." Mulan let go of him and parted from the embrace. "They're planning something for tonight." Shang nodded.
"So if this is my dream what am I going to do?"
"I want you to wake up and go to my room. My door's unlocked. If I wake up and you're there and I remember this, it was my dream, but if you're there
then it was both of our dreams.. Make sure no one sees you. The matchmaker will be looking for you." Shang nodded and disappeared. Mulan was alone once
again. Suddenly, the monster came out of his tent. It looked furious.
"You warned him!" it screamed.
"I Wasn't too late!" Mulan called. the monster grew larger and came closer.
"I won't stand for this." It cried. and came after Mulan, closer and closer. Mulan closed her eyes and let out a scream.
Mulan was jolted awake and a pair of hands grabbed her shoulders. She looked up shocked.
"Shang? What are you doing here?" Shang started to blush.
"Well I had this dream, and for some strange reason, I know you'll think this is weird but...." He stopped and turned to walk out of the room.
"I warned you to come in here and avoid your room." Mulan finished. Shang turned around and looked at her.
"We had the same dream? But how is that so?" Shang asked astonished. Mulan was about to answer him when she heard footsteps.
"Shh.. go to the door." Mulan and Shang creeped towards the door, holding their breath, they slightly opened the door, just enought to see out of, and
prayed it didn't make a sound. The door opened silently. There they saw Sui-yen sneaking around the rooms. She stopped at the third door to the left. It was Shang's
room. She looked both ways to make sure no one was watching and she opened the door and slipped into the darkness. Shang felt Mulan's hand grab his. He looked
at her and even in the darkness, he could tell she was thinking something. She was about to speak when the sound of more footsteps caught their attention. They
watched as the matchmaker walked up the stairs, with a lantern and waited by the Shang's room. She looked around and burst the door open.
"What are you doing with my...!" her voice trailed. And she walked inside. A few minutes later Sui-yen walked out with the matchmaker following.
"He's not in there!" She whined. The matchmaker shushed her.
"Maybe he's out for a nightly stroll, these rich guys do that. We'll wait till later tonight and try again." The pair made their way down the steps and into the
night. Shang sighed a sigh of relief.
"They were going to frame you." Mulan finally uttered. Shutting the door. "I can't believe they were going to make Sui-yen go in your room and the
matchmaker was going to catch you two, no matter what you were doing and force you to marry Sui-Yen." Mulan's eyes were like fire. Shang could tell that even in
the dark. He walked towards her night stand and lit the lamp. Soon they had enough light to see each other. "What are you going to do Shang?" Mulan asked.
"Do about what?"
"You heard the matchmaker and Sui-yen, They would try later on tonight. They're going to try and catch you." Shang stopped and thought about it for a
few minutes.
"Well, I could go to another room and stay there, or I could stay here for a while." He suggested. What was he thinking, suggesting that he stay in a
woman's room. This was defiantly frowned upon.
"I don't mind." Mulan added sitting down on her bed. She thought for a second about how that must have looked and stood up. "I don't think we should
sit on the bed. It would, It-it would look bad." She stuttered. Shang sat down on the floor next to the bed and motioned for Mulan to sit next to him.
"Thanks for letting me stay. By the way, What do you think caused us to share our dreams?"
"I'm not sure but I think it has to do with this." Mulan began moving closer to Shang, and keeping her voice down. " You said you had a dream where
someone said that you were too late, and I did too. Maybe the too late was to tell me not to hesitate to warn you."
"Yeah, and maybe my too late was inviting you over. If I hadn't done that. I would have been forced to marry Sui-yen." Mulan nodded in agreement. The
chatted for another hour about other possibilities and such when they heard Sui-Yen's footsteps again. Shang laughed softly at the thought of Sui-Yen sneaking in
again. She was so caught up into hearing the matchmaker scheme and plan that he didn't notice that Mulan was slowly falling asleep. She laid her head down on his
shoulder and leaned against him. This caught Shang off-guard, he turned and looked at her sleeping peacefully. He should wake her and leave, but something in him
told him that just this once, and tonight no one would care if he stayed in her room. He wrapped his arm around her waist and rested his head on top of her head and
closed his eyes, only for a rest. But as his eyes drooped even more, he knew he was falling asleep too.
Yay, so far so happy. Let's hope I keep it up. Please let me know what you think. I know there are bound to be a few spelling errors in it. It's late and I have to go to work at Sears in the morning.. I don't really wanna run it through spell check....
