I don't own DW/ROTK or any of its characters

Sideways- Well I can reect taht view but I have not had Liu Bei in this story since the first chapter, and think for reminding that I forgot to put this part up, and also the god like character in DW5 is Zuo Ci, he has the horse attack skill of Ma Chao with the normal attacks are just unfair.

WOE- thanks for the review, and your very correct in your thought.

It had been 3 weeks since both Pang Tong, and Zhuge Liang had both told him they had a plan for the coming events, and were going to work with each other to get what they need to get done, done. That proved very incorrect after two weeks of secret meeting between the two great minds, nothing had came out yet. Sun Qian just sighed as he though about how the two greatest minds never seemed to agree on anything. Maybe it was just nature that they would disagree, or maybe it was because the natural rivalry that had developed between the two, or if it was Zhuge's lack of focus. It had been known he was begging to get serious with some woman, but no one had a clue on just who the heck she was. All Zhuge told him about her, was that she was far smarter then he himself. He had been working on plans for internal development with in Jing for the last two weeks mostly dealing with transportation issues with Yi. It would be an understatement to say the meetings were boring, but he knew they had to be done, he knew that Yi, and Jing would have to be united for them to defeat Cao Cao in the end.

Qian walked slowly by the room where Tong, and Zhuge were planning, making sure to be as quiet as possible in order to avoid there arguments, which could be heard in any part of the castle. Suddenly the door opened, and both men stared at him.

"Lord Qian, it is good you're here, please tell Tong, here that what I am saying is completely reasonable," Zhuge said looking at him.

"Well it not of course, sorry but your wrong my friend," Tong added.

"Well this is what is going on… one hour later.. so don't you agree," Zhuge said.

"Um well, this isn't really my area, I am sure you will get something to work out, maybe you should write Shu and ask him what he thinks," Qian said quickly making his way away from the two mad geniuses.

He got to the end of the hall, and looked around feeling safe from the chaos from the room.

"Qian, hey do you want to spar with me today," A voice said from behind him.

Qian turned to see his wife standing behind him, and he smiled, "well hello, um wasn't Lady Sun going to spar with you today, heck I know she is a heck of a lot better then me."

"Well, your not that bad, and anyway what wrong with us spending some time together," Lady Ma said smiling,

Qian just sighed, he knew he couldn't get out of this one, not that he could tell his wife no anyway, "Well I guess so, just don't go to hard on me ok."

"Don't worry about it, it going to be a lot of fun," Lady Ma said with a evil looking smile.

As the two walked to go out side, Guan Yu was talking to Huang Zhong. When they noticed Lord Qian, and Lady Ma walk by them.

"Well it nice to see you two today," Qian said when he saw the two, trying to think of a way to get out of sparing with his wife.

"No, I am not going to let you talk to those to all day, you tricked me once, but not a second time, lets get going, we are wasting sun light," Lady Ma said.

"let me guess, Lady Sun is with my son today, and can't spar with you," Guan Yu said.

"Yep, that the way it looks," Qian said as he followed Lady Ma out to train.

"To be young again, wouldn't it be grand," Zhong said, "Hey I think you still owe me a rematch, Guan Yu."

"Ok, but you know, you have no chance against me," Yu replied.

Right outside the place, a young man with long black hair which was in a ponytail was standing looking a bit nervous.

"It is a honor to meet you lord.. no no, um hello I have come along way to meet you and it is a honor to do so," the teenager said, "Darn it, why can I think of something that sound right."

The teen was name Jiang Wei, he was from the area controlled by Ma Teng, and he had the goal of to become a great strategist. He had gone to Teng to ask to enter into his service, but Teng decline telling the youth that he need to go some where were he could learn from a master, and advised him to go to Cheng Du to learn from Xu Shu. When he got to Cheng Du, Shu also declined him telling him to go to Jing, and find Lord Qian, that he would be able to find someone to work with. So he traveled to Jing, but he really did know what this Lord Qian looked like, he just knew he was married to the daughter of Lord Teng. So Wei walked around looking for anyone he would think could be this Lord Qian. He stopped when he saw a young couple sitting a table eating.

"I am Jiang Wei, I have traveled along way to see you Lord Qian," Wei said as he walked up to the table.

Wei was surprised when the girl broke out laughing followed by the spiky hair young man that was with her.

"I am sorry, Ping, it seems this man thinks you're Qian," Lady Sun said laughing

"Sorry, it just, well I am Guan Ping, Lord Qian somewhere else," Ping said.

'Oh um thank you," Wei said walking away embarrassed.

Wei soon found himself in the sparing area, watching two men fight it out, one had a long beard, and the other was a old man, Wei moved in close to the two.

"Um are you Lord Qian?" he asked the long bearded man.

"No, I am not, Lord Qian is over there," Yu said point to a man who was sitting on a chair getting his ribs rapped up by a lady.

Wei walked over to the man who was listening to him question.

"Yes, I am Lord Qian, what can I do for you," he asked.

"Um sure, I was told that you could find someone that I can learn strategist under," Wei said nervously.

"Well, I guess so, I am sure either Zhuge Liang, or Pang Tong would take you in, they are on the room to the left," Qian said pointing.

"Um you think he will survive walking into one arguments," Guan Yu said walking over.

"Well if he wants to learn form one, he will have to learn," Qian said, "Um Yun, are you done with the bandages, yet."

"No, and it going to take longer if you don't sit still," Lady Ma said.

"Hey you owe me, you're the one who hurt my ribs," Qian said.

"Hey how was I to know that you were so weak," Lady ma said with a smirk.

Qian just sighed wondering what would happen next in his day of horrors, soon enough Liu Pi was walking up to him with a interesting odd look on his face.

"What is it, Pi," Qian said expecting the worst, something like a Cao Cao has just taken over ever where but where he was, or Zhou Yu had just taken most of Jing.

"Well it seems we have two guests who want to speak with you," Pi said.

"Great bring them in," Qian said, as Pi left.

He soon returned with two Wu officers that he knew of, he scratched his head when he saw them, wondering what the heck those two where doing.

Huang Gai walked up to Qian with a very serious face, "Lord Qian, I request to work for you."

"As do I," Gan Ning added..

"What is the reason that two of Wu's finest would want to serve under me," Qian asked.

"Simple my lord, I have served under 3 generations of Suns, and know that my lord is death, I feel obligated to watch after the last of Sun Jian's children, and as you also hold the name of Sun, it would also mean I should work for you," Gai said with the same seriousness that Qian was used to hearing from Guan Yu.

"And why do you want to serve, Gan Ning," Qian asked.

"It is because I owe one of your officers my life, and I am not going to let that person die, before I pay that back," Ning said.

"Well, from what Guan Ping has told me you are both great officers, you are both welcome to have commands here, welcome to Jing, my friends."

"Where is Guan Ping anyway," Gan Ning asked.

"Um he is out on a date with Lady Sun, I think," Guan Yu said in the back ground.

"Good, sounds like I can cause some trouble," Ning said laughing before walking off.
