Wu's Fate
Episode 11: Eat This Xiao Qiao
Part 2 of 4
Lu Xun ran through the halls of the castle, trying to find Lord Sun Jian and Lord Zhou Yu. Lu Xun was breathing faster and faster with every breath that he took, it seemed that he would never be able to find the two lords until...now...
" Oh, gosh! My head! You stupid idiot watch where your going!" Lu Xun said on the floor holding his head. " You nearly cracked my skull open!"
" Who's the idiot?" Zhou Yu looked down at the younger strategist. " And it isn't my fault that you ran into my chest."
" What the hell are you wearing armor underneath your clothes!" Lu Xun asked Zhou Yu in the most polite tone of voice as he stood up.
" That is none of your concern, young one...Why are you in such a rush?" Zhou Yu asked dusting off his clothes.
" Lady Mi Xun has awoken and I needed to tell you and Lord Sun Jian." Lu Xun bowed as he hurried off to Sun Jian's room.
" So...Mi Xun has awoken? I'll just kill her after the wedding..." Zhou Yu whispered to himself.
" Where's Lord Sun Jian?" Lu Xun looked at the two guards that stood infront of Sun Jian's doorway.
" Lord Sun Jian has left to go see Lady Mi Xun." Both guards repiled.
" Crap!" Lu Xun turned around and sprinted back.
" Hmmm..." Mi Xun took another sip of the medicine. " I wonder when the weddings are going to be held..."
There was a knock on the door...Mi xun still couldn't get out of bed since she wasn't wearing anything...She looked at the door thinking that it could've been Lu Xun...
" May I come in?" The voice was familiar, yet distant to Mi Xun as she sat in bed.
" The doors unlocked..." Mi Xun replied as she pulled up the covers.
" Mi Xun?" Zhou Yu looked directly at the feminine body that hid underneath the blanket and covers.
" Oh! It's you Zhou Yu." Mi Xun put the covers back down, but still had them high enough to cover her body. " I didn't recognize your voice."
" Figures, you've been asleep for nearly 12 hours." Zhou Yu said as he took a seat. " Like the medicine?"
" Yes, very much, thank you." Mi Xun bowed her head in respect as she drank the rest of the medicine.
" I figure that Gan Ning gave you a little too much of it seeing I told him just to tip the bottle and count to one." Zhou Yu laughed.
" Wha...What?! I'm not supposed to be drinking this much medicine!?" Mi Xun screamed.
" It's not going to kill you Mi Xun. It's just going to increase the rate that you recover. The weddings are going to be held later today before dinner." Zhou Yu said while he laughed at Mi Xun's reaction.
" I'm sorry...My lord..." Mi Xun said as she placed the cup on a side table.
" Sorry about what...Mi Xun." Zhou Yu's expression changed back to his normally serious face.
" I'm...I'm sorry about leaving...I hope that you and Lady Xiao Qiao have a beautiful life together..." Mi Xun said as she bowed her head.
" Don't worry...Just don't worry about it..." Zhou Yu placed his hand on the handle of his sword...he was about to swing when the door opened, Lu Xun and Sun Jian were standing there.
" Lady Mi Xun! What a suprise! I thought that you would never wake up!" Sun Jian said as he walked over to the bed.
" I'm back." Lu Xun said as he took a seat next to Mi Xun.
" Hello...." Mi Xun said as she looked up and smiled at the new arrivals.
" Da...Do you think that Lord Sun Jian will ask Zhou Yu to kill Mi Xun?" Xiao Qiao asked her sister who carefully unbraided Xiao's hair, letting the newly unbraided hair show its curved form.
" I think so...She is going to defect..." Da Qiao replied as she unbraided another braid. " Stop talking it'll ruin my concentration."
" Yes, sister." Xiao replied sitting still and calm in the chair as her sister finished the unbraiding.
If they do kill her...Who knows how many Wu officers might defect in retaliation to what Lord Sun Jian has done...But if Lord Sun Jian doesn't do this...then it might be the end of Wu. Da thought to herself, knowing that if she had told it to her sister it would infuriate her.
" So, Mi Xun...Your performance last night was beautiful." Sun Jian said as he picked up Mi Xun's left hand. " My dear, would you happen to honor us with your presence tonight at the wedding?"
" Um....Lord Sun Jian...I didn't prepare for the wedding...so I don't think that I ca-." Mi Xun was cut off by Sun Jian's cheerful voice.
" My dear lady, the dress is nothing, but a mere factor!! You can have any dress that is here! Just say which and you shall have it!" Sun Jian said in a tone that alarmed Mi Xun to know that something was wrong.
" My Lord...." Mi Xun paused for a moment.
" Lord Sun Jian, I have a dress already prepared for Lady Mi Xun." Lu Xun bowed respectivly towards the ruler of Wu.
" Oh! Lu Xun you do? That is very becoming of a young gentlemen!" Sun Jian turned and let go of Mi Xun's hand. " I shall want to see it Lu Xun..."
" It is already in the room, my lord." Lu Xun went to the back of the room and opened the curtains to reveal the dress hanging on a manican-type thing.
" Lu Xun...Where'd you get it..." Mi Xun stared amazed at the dress. The dress was a cream dress, with rose-colored jewels randomly placed on the skirt. The top part it had long sleeves...sorta like Zhou Yu's, but it had a cut from the shoulder to shoulder so you could see her neck.
" I was able to make it...I made it in some of my spare time." Lu Xun said as he hung his head in embarassment. " So...Will you wear it? I have a rose colored jade necklace also..."
" Lu Xun..." Mi Xun said as she looked down at the bed. " I..."
" Splendid Lord Lu Xun! I shall expect you and Lady Mi Xun to arrive on time to the wedding then. I shall be off!" Sun Jian quickly left the room hiding his anger inside the slightest bit of joy that he had for his son's wedding that was to occur later that day.
" So...What next?" Mi Xun asked when suddenly her eyes went blank and she fell to the right side of the bed and fell off it.
" Mi Xun!" Lu Xun ran over to aid her as Gan Ning had just entered and Zhou Yu took his leave without saying a word.
I am back...Lady Mi Xun... It was Sima Yi's voice again.
" Why are you here?" Mi Xun asked, standing once again in the swirl of colors.
I am here to get awnsers from you. Oh, great lady of Wu. Sima Yi let out one of his maniac laughs.
" I am not going to give you any awnsers!" Mi Xun replied.
Is that so? Aren't you the one that is going to run to Lord Liu Bei? Sima Yi smirked as he walked out of the colors.
" It doesn't matter if I am going to run to Lord Liu Bei or Lord Cao Cao!" She yelled at him. " Just as long as it's away from Zhou Yu!"
Then why do you get angry...You still have feelings for Lord Zhou Yu don't you? Sima Yi gave Mi Xun a cold stare.
" I...I..I..I do have feelings for him..." Mi Xun said as she fell to the ground. " I know that he won't be able to be with me..."
Sima Yi! BEGONE! An unfamiliar voice was heard in the distance before Mi Xun looked up to look at Sima Yi to see him being blasted by a light green beam.
" Who's there?!" Mi Xun turned around and looked for the new voice.
Zhuge Liang! What are you doing in the girl's mind! Sima Yi yelled at the younger strategist.
I should ask you the same question...This girl has a right to choose who she wants to run to...Let us depart and await her decision Sima Yi...Let us giver her two months to reach either capital of our kingdoms before we mess with her. Zhuge Liang said as he approached the fallen girl and Sima Yi.
This will not be over Zhuge Liang... Sima Yi got up and left in a rush.
Lady Mi Xun...Are you alright? Zhuge Liang approached and kneeled next to her. Here....Zhuge Liang casted a small healing spell on the girl.
" Why are you doing this?" Mi Xun glared at him.
I am doing this because I am not one to want innocent people to get hurt...You are innocent for now at least...You may still have feelings for Lord Zhou Yu, but you know that you will have to give up those feelings one day...Zhuge Liang stood up and waved his fan while smiling at her for a moment and then left her in the swirl of colors.
" To give up these feelings..." Mi Xun looked up as the room began to turn from a dark blue-ish purple to a deep relaxing green to a vibrant red.
" GAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" Mi Xun awoke and screamed.
ZhouMiXun: Okay...See ya! R&R!!!
Zhou Yu: Why did you make me try to kill you?
ZhouMiXun:....I didn't I just made you grab the handle of your sword...
Zhou Yu: You made me act like a violent-
ZhouMiXun: Shut up you old man...
Everyone gasps at ZhouMiXun's tone of voice towards Zhou Yu.
ZhouMiXun: The wedding...the betrayal...and the lost love...R&R!
