Changed Destiny Chapter 1- New Brothers

Sun Qian woke up the next morning in his small home in Ru Nan. He told himself that the events of the day before had really happened, that he lord, Liu Bei had indeed pasted away, and left him with his duties. Qian sighed as the thought past thought his head, he could almost feel the weight of the world on moving on to his shoulders. He scratched the top of his dark hair as he wondered if he was worthy of this. About a hour after he had this argument with himself, he walked out of his home.

When he found his way out of his door, he saw a man standing against the side of the door. The man was of average height, with an average build; he had on a yellow bandana, and wore simple yellow armor. Qian knew the man at first sight; he was a branded as a rebel by the society, because he had joined in the Yellow Turban rebellion. Though he was anything but that he was a man of great courage, who wanted nothing but a return to peace, in fact he had taken Ru Nan out of the hands of a group of people who were treating the people in the town poorly. He was a cable officer, and Qian knew he would need all of his help for the future.

"So what took you so long, trying to get over what Liu Bei told you," Liu Pi say with a smile on his face, "Well I know you will think of something, oh by the way, the scouts have some interesting news, I think you might want to hear it."

Qian immediately look at Pi with a bit of fear in his eyes, worried that he was just about to hear that Cao Cao was moving south already against the town. Qian just starred unable to talk at all, complete on edge.

"Well, um it not bad, Guan Yu is coming this way, I think we will be near the town by mid day, I am sure he will be a large help to us," Pi said still smiling.

Qian blinked when Pi told him about the news, he was not expecting this would he be able to tell him what had taken place to his brother, he looked back at Pi and said, "Um do you know what route he is taking, I want to meet him."

"Yeah of course, figured you would, he is taking the old path though the hills," Pi said, "We need to get moving now, if we want to reach them to make sure they don't pass by the town."

-Later that day-

Pi, and Qian where sitting on their horses with waiting with about 150 youths, that Pi had recruited when he had taken the city. Pi was watching with anticipation, he had heard of the great brothers, but never meet them, it was like meeting a sports icon, and he looking forward to it. Qian on the hand was a bit nervous, because recently it had come out that Zhang Fei was traveling with Guan Yu. He was going to have to tell them both the news at the same time, and this made him a bit nervous, and he repeated what he was going to say to them over and over again in his mind.

Then over the hill came a two large men on horses, one a very tall man in all green with a huge beard, and the other a smaller but greatly built man who was also in a green armor but with a red bandana. Both men noticed Qian, and the others, and moved towards them. Qian then noticed two others, a tall skinny man with a short beard, and slight mustache, and the other was a short man with hard looking face with a large beard, and a helmet that had a rounded edge to it. Pi knew of both men, they were both former Yellow Turbans as well, in fact two of the better officers, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang.

"Well it is good to see you well, Sun Qian, I was wondering if you have seen my brother, has he come though he, or anything," Guan Yu asked with no apparent signs of emotions.

"Well Qian, is he here, I know if he found you, things would be going better," Zhang Fei said with a happy voice.

"Well I need to give you something," Qian said as he got off his horse, and was followed by the other leaders getting of their horse. He then approached Guan Yu, and handed a letter given to him by Liu Bei. Liu Bei had given it to him; to prove to his brothers what had happened did indeed happen. He proceeded to give the letter to Guan Yu who gave it in turn to Zhang Fei. When both men read the letter, there was a weird silence which followed. It looked like no one knew what the right thing to say would be, so none of them said a thing, and just looked at each other in reflection.

"I have not read it, so I don't know what it says, but I must say if you don't want to do what ever it says, you don't have too," Qian said to just get something out there.

"No, it was his orders, I have to follow, I just wish I could of told brother good bye, so now Brother Qian, what is our move," Fei said suddenly with a bit of sadness.

"Yes, I too will miss Liu Bei, but he asked for us to follow you like we did him, and I will honor that, so brother, I think we need to head into town, I am sure it is only time before Cao Cao moves on us," Guan Yu said getting back on his horse, and going to town, followed by Zhang Fei.

"I am Liao Hua, it will be a honor to serve you," Hua said as he bowed.

"As it will for me, if you will allow me to serve you, I am Zhou Cang," Cang said also bowing.

"Well of course, I think we need to head to town, it will be a honor to have the company of great warriors," Qian said getting back on his horse before going into town.
