Chapter 2- Ouch!

Sun Shang Xiang looked around her. She could see people's faces. Everyone looked a bit scared. Sun Ce rallied his troops and Sun Shang Xiang thought she'd do the same.

"Ok guys this is it! The 'BIG' match as you would hear my brother say. But honestly and truly this isn't the big match. Wei and Shu bring and unbalanced fight. Before long they'll be squabbling and fighting themselves and that would give us the perfect opportunity to attack them head on and wipe them out."

"But princess, Sun Ce has been saying the opposite f what you have to his troops." said one Lt General.

"Oh, well never mind him." She said trying to bloke what he was saying out of her mind.

"But princess, he says that together Wei and Shu make the best allied team and that if we don't fight with 100 concentration we'll get wiped out." The Lt General continued.

"I said never mind him!" she shouted. She realised that her outburst had caused many of her troops to step a couple of paces back.

"I'm sorry, I'm just trying to keep a positive attitude." She said, reassuringly.

"Even if that means lying to yourself?" said a familiar voice.

"Zhou Yu…" she turned around to face him. They had been very good friends, well they had to be, he was always around training with Sun Ce. But when they finally got to know each other they clicked.

"You know inside that both Shu and Wei are going to be tough to beat, so stop trying to convince yourself they aren't." His eyes were narrow and he was very displeased with Shang's reactions to this situation.

"Do me a favour, Zhou Yu, and don't start on me." She said, turning her back on him and facing her troops.

Zhou Yu grabbed her arm, forcing her to turn around.

"If you go into that battle with the mind set that you are going to beat them while closing your eyes, I will assure you now that you will surely get yourself hurt." He looked concerned now more than anything. (Don't worry; this isn't gong to be a ZhouYu x SSX story I PROMISE! )) "Don't get yourself hurt."

"I won't," she said.

"You better not because if you do I won't have a little sister to mess around with." Ce said, giving her the old charming smile.

"I'd hate to break this up but the Wei-Shu forces are approaching us. What are we going to do?" asked Zhuge Jin.

Sun Ce thought for awhile.

"Ok, I have the perfect strategy. We will run away and pretend we are retreating and when they follow us then Zhuge Jin can issue his ambush parties."

Everyone agreed with this idea apart from one person.

"Forget your plan; I'm attacking head on with my troops!"

"SUN SHANG XIANG! YOU PROMISED YOU WOULDN'T GET HURT!" Ce shouted.

"Don't worry, I won't."

---------------------------------(an hour later)------------------------------------

"Sun Ce! Sun Ce!" shouted a Lt General.

"I'm busy right now…" Sun Ce was fighting a group of Wei-Shu peons.

"It's about your sister, the princess."

"What about her!" he shouted killing the last man.

"She was shot with an arrow in her chest and hit over the head with Lady Zhen Ji's flute. I'm afraid she is blacking out and is loosing a vast amount of blood."

"Where is she now?"

"In a small forest, north from here."

"North from here?! That means she was in way too deep!"

---------------------------------(at SSX's side)---------------------------------------

"Sun Shang Xiang…hold on…what were you doing so far in?" Sun Ce said almost shouting.

"You were right…they are hard…but I'll beat them, I feel better now." She tried to stand up, only to fall back into her same position.

She was blacking out now.

"Shang…SHANG! How many fingers am I holding up…?" He started shaking her vigorously.

"I don't…know…"

"Hold on Shang…hold on."

Ok now this is where the weird/funny bit happens. In that era in China SSX is totally blacked out, but somehow she has a dream taking her into the 21st century. Now you must be thinking 'oh great….now it's going 2 be crap', but just continue reading it. Now in order for her to wake up in her normal era she has to remember who she was back then in her current form which is a school girl in the 21st century. If you don't get it you will while reading my story.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Shang, Mistress Shang you have to get up now its time for school."

Shang woke up at an instant. "Morning Flo, I had the weirdest dream." She said jumping out of bed.

"Oh? What was it about Mistress?" Flo said, making her bed.

"It's funny, now I can't remember." She shook her head trying to remember the dream she had had.

"Well better not waste any time. You better go take a shower, and go eat breakfast. Remember your walking to school with you brother and Zhou Yu."

Shang grabbed her towel. She turned the hot and cold tap on at max. Then she jumped in and took her usual 10 minute shower.

----------------------------------(in dining room)------------------------------------

"Hey dad, Ce, what's for breakfast?" she said.

"The usual, sis. Eggs, bacon, sausages, toast, orange juice."

"Why, what were you expecting?" Sun Jian said.

"Meat buns and wine." She said.

Sun Ce looked at her, wondering if she was being serious or joking.

"It's not ancient China, Shang Xiang." Her father said.

Shang obviously hadn't heard him and started on another subject.

"I had a really weird dream last night."

"Is that so? Enlighten us, little sister."

"It's just that…I can't remember…" The doorbell rang.

"It's Zhou Yu, we better get going or we'll be late."
