Wu's Fate
Episode 10: Eat This Xiao Qiao!
Part 1 of 4
Mi Xun was lying in bed, she was asleep, so peacefully they think at least. Her skin has turned back to the normal color of light tan, but Zhou Yu and Gan Ning were not sure if the poison has gotten to her system or not. Another person was in the room, sitting in a chair next to the bed as if waiting for the person to awaken at any moment.
It was Lu Xun, he was sitting next to her bed, his eyes were closed he was thinking about something. Probably thinking about what would happen if she died from the poison...or when she leaves for Shu tomorrow...
" Mi Xun are you awake yet?" Lu Xun asked not moving from his position in the chair.
There was no response...You could hear her slight breathing if you were silent...but that did not indicate if she would be okay. She seemed fine, Lu Xun was always with her so if she was getting sick he would've noticed it. She still laid there motionless, the ocasional movement of her lungs moving her chest, but that was all.
" When will you get up?" Lu Xun asked out loud, then there was a loud knock on the door. " Come in."
It was Gan Ning, he was carrying some bottles with him. He seemed to be kinda...out of it...Maybe all of those drinks that they had the other night wasn't such a good idea. He was fine when he was helping out Mi Xun, but now it seems that the alcohol had gotten to him...The poor fool Lu Xun thought.
" Has our little princess awaken?" Gan Ning said while placing the bottles down on a side table and taking another chair and massaging his forehead.
" No, she hasn't...not even moved. Do you think she could've..." Lu Xun paused before Gan Ning yelled.
" NO! Lu Xun, you can't give up! She's your best friend! You basically grew up with her. She cared for you hand you want to think that she's dead?! Look at her body! It's still moving slightly! She's still breathing! We still have a chance!" Gan Ning said as he stopped to massage his head again. Gan Ning...You moron, stop yelling you are having a hangover and you are making your headache worse...
" Anyways...what are in those bottles?" Lu Xun pointed to the bottles that Gan Ning had brought in.
" Oh...Those? Lord Zhou Yu said that they are some medicines that we should give her in an hour." Gan Ning said while yawning.
" C'mon Mi Xun...Wake up..." Lu Xun said as he placed her right hand in his hands. " Don't give up in there."
" Where..." Mi Xun stood up and looked around her, the room that she had awaken to was a swirl of every color...Every single color changed to another one in a few seconds. It gave her a headache, but she had to figure out where to go.
Mi Xun....Mi Xun... A strange voice came out from the entire room
" Who's there?" Mi Xun turned around in search of the source of the voice.
I know....I know.... The strange voice continued to speak from no specific source.
" You know what?" Mi Xun ran forward to where she thought the voice had come from, but she had gone no where...it was as if she couldn't move to anywhere new.
Everything....that you do... The voice continued to speak. Why you really want to leave Wu for Shu....
" You Lie?! No one knows the reason!" Mi Xun said as she turned around trying to find the source once more.
I do not lie Lady Mi Xun... The strange voice was getting closer to her, but she could not figure out where it was coming from.
" Who are you...At least tell me that?!" Mi Xun said as she turned to where the voice was coming from.
A man dressed in a dark purple robe appeared. My name is Sima Yi...Lord Cao Cao's strategist...
" How'd you get in here...How do I get out?!" Mi Xun yelled at Sima Yi.
That is not something for me to tell you at this moment... He responded and pulled out his black feathered fan. I am here on bussiness...You are leaving Wu for Shu because of Lord Zhou Yu? Or is it another reason? Maybe you know someone for Wei that is leaving for Shu on the same day as you are?
" The only person that I know from Wei is Zhang He!" Mi Xun responded with a slight bit of hatred in her voice.
Is that true? Lord Zhang He says that he does not know you...Sima Yi responded in such a way that it send chills down Mi Xun's spine.
" I met him a while back when I was still a child!" Mi Xun replied, she was losing breathe.
Oh? You are starting to fade...Well this means that I can not stay any longer today...I will be back another night... With those last words, Sima Yi vanished into the colorful walls all the while laughing menacingly.
" Hey wait?!" Mi Xun ran towards where Sima Yi went and appeared in her room...a place that everyone has in their own minds...a place where one can think things out. Mi Xun looked around and sighed at another failure. " How'd I get here?"
" Uuuuuhhhh?" Mi Xun opened her eyes. " Lu Xun? Where am I?"
Gan Ning was asleep in the chair that he was sitting in...Slouched in the chair, but he was asleep...
" You are in the infirmary...You passed out last night...We think it was some poison on the arrow that Xiao Qiao had shot at you...Lord Zhou Yu is taking the blame for his wife..." Lu Xun said as he stood up.
" The papers...I forgot to give you guys the lyrics!" Mi Xun said as she tried to get up to rush to her room.
" I found the papers, made copies, and handed them out to the guys...You need to rest. I'll get you some clothes and some food...Don't wake Gan Ning...He's been grumpy all morning." Lu Xun said as he moved to the door, opened it, exited out of it and closed it behind him.
ZhouMiXun: Okay...Break time?! Three hours later... Okay, back to work everyone!
" Sima...Yi...That was the man that was in my dream..."Mi Xun said as she sat up, pulling the blanket up so that it would cover her.
" Huh? Mi Xun?" Gan Ning said as he looked around the very small room.
" Oh...Gan Ning...Did I wake you up?" Mi Xun asked the now awake man.
" Oh...I guess so... So, you feeling better? Sun Jian and Zhou Yu wanted to see you as soon as you woke up." Gan Ning got up to leave to get the two, but then paused. " Oh yeah...I almost forgot! You need to take this medicine...Zhou Yu made it...as an apology I guess..." Gan Ning poured some of the medicines into a small cup and handed it to Mi Xun. " Drink up!" The happy ex-pirate said as he left the room and she sat there in quiet...
"Thank you...." Mi Xun picked up the cup and drank from it slowly...it smelled wonderful even though it was medicine...Zhou Yu knew that she wouldn't take anything if it didn't smell like the summers at the castle...The fresh smell of roses and lillies...The scent of coconut milk being used for sweet rice... " Zhou Yu....My lord...I am sorry..."
" Zhou Yu! I command that you take charge for your vassal." Sun Jian said as he sat up in his seat looking down at the strategist.
" But my lord! She is doing no harm!" Zhou Yu said trying to protect Mi Xun's safety.
" Is she not doing any harm? What if she goes off to Liu Bei or Cao Cao's forces! What then! She will tell Sima Yi or Zhuge Liang our plans?!" Sun Jian yelled out loud seeming to get more annoyed by the strategists words.
" SHE WOULD NEVER TELL ZHUGE LIANG OR SIMA YI!!!!" Zhou Yu yelled at Sun Jian, Zhou Yu gasped at his action. " Please forgive me my lord..."
" Zhou Yu...I shall always forgive you since you are like a son to me..." Sun Jian replied in a cold tone of voice.
"....My lord...my vassal only wishes to leave due to my wedding this afternoon....I shall kill her before...the wedding..." Zhou Yu said as he hung his head and bowed before leaving Sun Jian's room.
" This is perfect....Mi Xun will be dead by this evening..." Sun Jian smirked and then laughed evilly.
ZhouMiXun: There's no singing in this one...and I'm starting to get sick and tired of writing like this....so I think I'm going to make them sing again...R&R, doods! I'm probably not going to be writing that much since school's back an all...so maybe one chapter every two weeks. Ja ne!
