Hey sorry, but I had some things over the weekend to do, and I really just wanted to get the title down and kinda get it started.
Previously
When they got home she called some of her neighbors help her bring Shang into the house. When they got him in bed Mulan thanked them and started to make food for them. Mulan looked down and saw Mai and Lily sitting there by Mulan.
"Why don't you girls keep an eye on your father."
"Okay."
About 10 minutes later the girls came running back into the kitchen.
"MULAN…"
"MOMMY!"
"What is it girls!"
"Shang… there is something wrong. He wont stop shaking, and he wont wake up."
"Oh God… please don't take him now."
Mulan went running into where Shang lay dying. She took his hand and started to talk to him hoping it would somehow calm him down…
TO BE CONTINUED…
Do not take him. Not now, not ever.
"Lily get me a wet cloth" Lily nodded her head and went to wet a piece of cloth. When she got back, she could see Shang's eyes open, but could only see the white part of his eyes. She handed Mulan the damp cloth and Mulan placed it over Shang's forehead. Lily ran out of the room and took Mai for a walk.
"Shang. Listen to me. You have to be strong. I am here for you, but you have to fight this yourself." She held his hand tighter. "Shang listen to me. You daughter is frightened. I am frightened; I do not want to lose you Shang. You are my knight and shinning armor, if you die I die along with you." She leaned down and gave the shaking Shang a kiss on the lips. "I am here for you Shang, just like how you were there for me… I love you Shang. And no matter what happens I will always love you." She looked at Shang and guided his hand to her face; she held it there for a bit. Then she moved it down to her stomach. "No matter what happens I will make sure that your child will grow up to be just like you."
Shang seemed to calm down. And Mulan went to go pray to the ancestors.
"Ancestors, hear my prayers. Please help Shang. I beg of you."
"Mulan?"
Wiping away the tears from her eyes, she turns to Lily
"Yes my dear?"
"Is there anything I can do to help you with Shang?"
"No sweetie, sadly there is nothing you can do. I can't do a thing except watch him die." Mulan starts to cry.
"I'm sorry."
"No don't be" catching a hold of herself. "We have to be strong, for Shang. No matter how much it is killing me to see him die I have to let go and… and let the ancestors take him away." She starts to ball her eyes out she turns around and leaves.
Mulan walks to the pond and sits down.
The memories came floating back to her.
Flashback
"Mulan. I love you so much."
"I love you to. However, I am already married. I cant keep on seeing you like this my husband is starting to get suspicious."
Shang kisses her deeply.
"Let him find us I love you deeply that he wont dare take you away."
"You forget who I married. He wont kill you, he will kill me."
"I wont let him!" he guides Mulan down to the ground where Shang starts to kiss her neck. Mulan starts to moan. Shang kisses Mulan deeper and deeper…
It was about 9:00 pm when Mulan woke up from her trance.
Mulan gets up and walks back into the house. She walked to the girls' room where she saw the sleeping. She quietly walked over to them and gave them a kiss on the forehead. She walked out and shut the door behind her. She then walked over to the bedroom where Shang was. She stood outside Shang's door. She builds up the courage to walk into his room. When she walked in, she saw him lying there. She lit a lantern and started to take off the bandage. She looks at Shang.
"Your wound is starting to heal. Soon it will just be a scar."
She looked up at him and saw that he did not move. She sighed and walked away to get a new bandage. She put them on, went under the covers, and lay next to Shang.
"Shang I don't know what I will do without you. Please just promise me you wont be in a rush to leave me.
To be continued…
