Chapter Six: I Like Eggs
(Gan Ning's POV)
I was carrying Diao Wan back to the battle sight. Neither of us talked except for the occasional: "How's the leg?" "Fine", "Are we there yet?" "No!" and other things like that. We where half way to the battle sight and you could hear voices yelling, but none of it was understandable. I could see red and green tents set up, so I knew that Wei had either been driven off or killed. Horses where tied up all over the place. Diao Wan was silent has I carried her, and was staring unblinkingly at her legs. She hated being carried, that was perfectly clear. I didn't blame her really. She did hate me. Oh well, that's her problem, not mine, I just did what I thought was right at the time. We were approaching the battle sight, more a camp now thou.
"How quickly do you think they'll spot us?"
"Oh, it won't take long. Although my bodyguards are complete bakas."
"Now, Diao Wan was that nice?"
"No, but I speak the truth."
"I highly doubt that, but that insult coming from you…that is really saying a lot."
"If I could stand…."
"Now, now, now Lady Diao. You can't kill me, who would be your personal carrier then?"
She glared at me with a you-shall-die-a-slow-and-painful-death look.
"Alright just kidding."
I was almost to the camp. I could hear the bickering, complaining, and bragging of many soldiers already. I entered the camp, much to my amazement (as Diao Wan's), unnoticed. I looked around for any of my fellow generals, but there were only several drunken privates from Shu over by the nearest tent. At least we weren't being attacked. I shifted Diao Wan around a little. It was amazing how heavy she got, she was extremely skinny for her age. Must be the armor.
(Diao Wan's POV)
I could hear voices, but no one was to be seen. They must all be in the tents, but didn't Zhuge Liang have more sense than to not put anyone on guard duty? Gan Ning was looking around for someone, and I guess he thought the same thing.
"I guess we should go into one of the tents, Sir Ning."
"Yeah, strange that no one is outside, or on watch, and don't call me sir. It makes me feel old."
"…"
"What?"
"You sounded just like my mother."
"Your…mother."
"Whatever, just go somewhere already!"
"Yes your majesty. Of course your ladyship. Whatever you say your Royal Highness…"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever…men."
He raised his eyebrow at my last comment, but smiled playfully. "You know, we sound like we're married," he whispered in my ear tauntingly. I blushed and punched his arm. He laughed, amused with my sudden embarrassment. Still chuckling to himself he walked on and went into the nearest Wu tent he saw.
(Third person)
They entered the room. Dirty, bloody (in Diao Wan's case), and with their clothes wrinkled. Basically they looked like they had just woken up (in this case the actually they had done just that). Gan Ning was holding the new officer from Shu, Diao Wan, in his arms and his trademark vest was wrapped around the wound on Diao Wan's leg. This was very surprising sight from anyone else's point of view. Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yun, and Sun Shang Xiang were inside the tent as they entered. SSX's mouth fell open and Zhuge Liang's raised an eyebrow. "I see you two resolved that little revenge problem of yours," teased Zhuge Liang. Everyone fell over anime style at this certain comment. "Do you WANT to die Liang!" shouted Diao Wan. She tried to get out of Gan Ning's firm hold, but was quickly restrained.
"Can't you just take me to my tent and save me from this torture."
"Sorry Lady Diao, we might need your assistance."
"To do WHAT! SIT AND WATCH!?!"
"No. To help us in our mission to reunite in alliance."
"Wha?"
"I like eggs."
"That was completely off the subject."
"Sorry."
Yeah. Right, well anyway.
(Diao Wan's POV)
Gan Ning slowly set me down on a chair that was in the corner of the small tent. I grabbed onto his shoulder for support. I could have sworn he blushed as his cheek accidentally brushed my ear when he set me down. Embarrassed, I quickly pulled my hand off his shoulder. He made sure I had my balance, then made his way over towards Sun Quan. I leaned back in the chair, looking down at my wounded leg. The wound had stopped bleeding, yet the pain was incredible. Zhuge Liang was insane. All I wanted to do at the moment was go lie down, redress my poor leg, and sleep. I was going to kill Zhuge Liang. Forming a new alliance. Yeah, that'll last long. I wonder if Sun Jian and Liu Bei heard about this. I know Lord Liu Bei's brother, Guan Yu, was going to have a fit. That'd be a fun scene to watch. Oh, well it couldn't get any worse I guess.
(The next morning)
I woke up and looked around. No one was around, not even any of my bodyguards. To think of it I hadn't seen them at all yesterday. Oh well, I didn't care where they where, so it didn't matter. If anything they're just outside. I sat up and gently lowered my legs to the ground. I suddenly discovered that ground is cold, especially in the morning with no shoes. I quickly pulled my legs back under the blankets. Just as I was doing this, guess who comes through the door and it was the person I would have never dreamed to come visit me. Yep. Gan Ning.
(Third person)
As Gan Ning walked in Diao Wan looked like she was attempting to walk. She looked like she had just woken up in her wrinkled battle garb and with her hair falling out of her high ponytail. He swiftly walked over and gently pushed her back in bed.
"I wouldn't do that Lady Diao. Do want that wound to open back up?"
"What ARE you doing? Do you always have to butt in on everyone else's problems?"
"Well, they also become my problems, when I cause them my dear lady."
"You could have avoided that and not given me this horrible gash in the first place, my dear sir."
"I told you already, don't call me sir. Its annoying. I made that wound, because it was my duty and you would have slaughtered me brutally with that Phoenix Sword of yours if I hadn't, Lady Diao."
"Ah! If you don't want me to call you sir, don't call me lady."
"Oh yes, of course. I forgot you're anything but a lady, my dear Lady Diao."
"Grr. Gan Ning! You're going to get it!"
"Yes I am"
He bent down and grabbed her chin and pulled her towards him. His other hand went behind her head. He then gave her the most romantic (not to mention unexpected) kiss anyone has ever seen. She even kissed him back. She blushed dramatically after they pulled away. She stared at him in shock. He then turned around and left. She watched him leave, in total shock and confusion. "What did he just do? WHAT DID I JUST DO!" she thought to herself. Mei came in and looked at her questionably. "Lady Diao is everything alright," she asked with great concern. "Yeah. Yeah, everything is fine…almost too fine," she answered. There was a faraway look in her eyes and Mei doubted that everything was fine or too fine. Interesting.
DW: Hahaha! Bet you didn't see that comin! Oh yeah. I left it nice and short, the next one will be long don't worry.
