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

Sideways- Thanks for the review again, yeah, after writing the Ping in Wu chapter, I had to make at least one of them change sides, and I figured the two I picked would work the best based on the chapter, and go back and look at 14 it has been changed.

A/N- As it may be known I have written 3 Shu character based stores, and now working on a Wei character based one. I am thinking of doing a Wu character based one but I have not decide on who I am going to pick, I am thinking about Lu Su, or Cheng Pu, but if you have any ideas just say them in the review I will think about them all.

Sun Qian sat in bed think of the wonder about the world around himself. The place had been in turmoil for over 2 weeks since Wei, and the two Wu defectors came to town. He really felt sorry for both Lady Sun, and for Guan Ping, because they were not able to any time alone with both Huang Gai, and Gan Ning following them around, Gai along with Guan Yu making sure Ping kept up his training, and behaved like a gentleman should. Then Ning who would just play practical jokes on the two when ever they got close to getting away from everyone. Well at least they were not bothering him.

Then there was the case of the young Jiang Wei, he must of impressed both Pang Tong, and Zhuge Liang, because it was known that both men offered to take the young man in as their pupil, and ended up in a loud and very long argument about it. In the end they made the agreement that they would both teach Wei for a year, and at the end of the year, Wei would pick who he wanted to learn under. He also helped with the plan, and only 3 days later the two presented the plan for attack on Wei.

Qian sighed as he thought of the plan, it made a lot of sense, and everything, but any attack on the powerful kingdom of Wei was no little matter. The plan was pretty simple, considering it came from two of the most able minds. A large army from Jing would match to and take Nan Yang then move to support an attack on Chang An, with Xu Shu sending his army from Yi, along with Ma Teng's army from Tian Shui. Once they took control of those areas, then they would match on to Xu Cheng if everything worked out like they hoped. While this happened another army would stay in Jing to protect from any possible attacks from Wu. Zhuge Liang himself was going to lead the army to take Nan Yang, and Tong would also go. The leadership of the Jing army would fall to Huang Zhong, and Zhou Yun.

Qian got off his bed as he though about how he was going to have everyone good luck, because they were going to leave on that day. He walked out of his room and down the halls where his friends were preparing there final preparations. He saw them, some standing talking to each other, some backing stuff. Guan Ping smiled when he saw Qian and walked over.

"Hello Ping, um are you ready for this," Qian said smiling at his friend.

Ping sighed heavily, and replied, "Well I am, but I sure wish could talk Lady Sun out of coming, I really don't want to see anything bad happen to her."

"Of course the little lover boy does want anything to happen to his girl," Gan Ning said coming out of no where.

"Ning, that is getting a little annoy, could you please stop it," Ping said turning to Ning.

"Well sorry, but it to much fun" Ning said, "Well, Qian, I will make sure nothing happens to lover boy."

"Good make sure of that, and you be careful as well," Qian said.

"Me careful, that is how you end up dead," Ning said walking away.

"He is one odd guy, almost makes Tong look normal, well good luck in dealing with Lady Ma on your own," Ping said before following Ning.

"Kids these days, and to think one of them is mine," Guan Yu walking from behind Qian with Gui.

"Well, I think we still have a thing or two to show them on the battlefield," Gui said.

"That is true, Lord Qian, I promise to you, that we will win," Guan Yu said as the two walked to their horses.

Qian smiled thinking of the how kind both Guan Yu, and his son had been to him over the time, they were like family to him. Qian walked around for a bit looking for Tong, Zhuge, and Wei. He found Wei, and Tong sitting over by a box of supplies that had not been moved, it looked like poor Wei was confused from what Zhuge was trying to tell him. He wonder though were Zhuge was, and walked up to the two and asked, "Hey um have you two seen Zhuge."

"Well I have not seen him, I heard that he was going to go ask for the hand of that girl he has been courting the last couple of months," Tong said.

"Thanks, I hope he will get here, I don't want to see you all get off to a bad start," Qian said.

"Don't worry, I am sure he will show up," Tong said.

"Well I am going to find him, I wish the both of you, good luck," Qian said walking off.

Qian searched the rest of the area, and could not find him anywhere, on his way he ran into a lot of his officers and would talk to all of officers he met. He was about to go look for his wife, when he saw him with a tall female with long dark brown hair.

"Lord, I have been looking forward to seeing you, I have come to introduce you to my wife," Zhuge said smiling, "This is my wife, Yue Ying, she is going to come on the campaign with me."

"Hello, Lord Qian, I have heard much about you, it is an honor to finally meet you," Ying said.

"Well the honor is all mine, Zhuge I think your army is ready," Qian said smiling.

"Well of course they are, these officers are the finest in the land, I promise we will move out soon," Zhuge said happily.

"Well then I will go and address the troops once I find my wife," Qian said.

"Oh, Lady Ma, was right behind us, man she was really happy, I think she had something to tell you," Ying said.

"Thank you, I will go find her and ask," Qian said a bit confused at wondering what his wife would want to tell him.

He had just walked a few feet when his wife had almost walked up, and gave him a big hug.

"Well it seems your really happy today," Qian said with a smirk.

"Well um," Lady Ma whispered in his ear.

Qian face turned white at the statement, and he took a hard gulp and looked at his wife who nodded in confirmation, "Um wow, well this is an interesting development."

"Yeah isn't it great," Lady Ma said smiling.

"Well I um have to go give the address, you want to join me," Qian said still looking stunned.

Qian walked into the place, and up a large staircase, ending up on a large balcony that looked over where the men where waiting. Qian went up to the edge with his wife next to him.

"Men, I want to thank you for your loyalty, and everything you have done to bring this land back to peace. You are no about to go on a quest that will bring us closer to that peace we have been looking for. I know some of you may die, on this quest, but for those that do, I will make sure that the people of this land will never forget what you died for."

Lady Ma added, "Well when you come back, you will be in time to see the new lord of this kingdom."
