Step down, back off

Chapter 8: Towards the end.

AN: Ok, this is the part where Liu Bei gets busted. And thank you to all those who supported me, you ROCK!

Sometime later, it was night fall and the Wu army returned from battle. The first thing that they saw was the three girls awaiting them at the palace gates.

"Liu Bei was no where to be found in the battlefield," Sun Ce reported as he got down from his horse.

"We know. He was here. But 'mei-mei' here busted his butt with a 'Thousand years of pain'," Da Qiao told her husband all that happened.

Xiao Qiao sighed. "Got that idea from watching too much 'Naruto' anime,"

Zhou Yu was interested. "Tell us the full story,"

The three girls told them everything.

Lu Xun thought for awhile. "Hmm…so Liu Bei had this planned all the while?"

"And we didn't see this coming," Lu Meng added.

"And he thinks we're fools!" Sun Quan yelled.

Taishi Ci sighed. "Told you he was an alien…"

Everyone sweat dropped.

Ling Tong kept on disturbing Gan Ning since the battle started until then. "Oh come on, I know you've confessed your love to her, I can see that 'look' on your face,"

"SHADDUP!!" yelled the ex-pirate. Once again, everyone sweat dropped at such childish behavior.

"Does mom know everything? Sun Ce asked his younger sister.

"Not yet, I was hoping that we'll all tell together," she answered.

They all went to tell this to Lady Wu; except for Taishi Ci who thought there is a UFO in the sky so he stayed at the palace gates.

When Lady Wu heard everything, she yelled, "WHAT?!"

Sun Ce was happy because he knew for sure that this time he would be able to get rid of Liu Bei. "Yeah, he's that type of guy that dares do this kind of stuff,"

Taishi Ci suddenly appeared. "Told ya' he was an alien,"

"Hey wait, how did you get in here?" asked Sun Quan. He thought Taishi Ci had got some magical teleporting powers from the UFO that he had claimed to have seen earlier on.

"Oh the window was open so I invited myself in," said Taishi Ci.

Everyone sweat dropped. "Ever heard of the door?"

Just then, two guards came running up to Lady Wu. "My lady, we spotted a sight of Liu Bei of Shu in your palace gardens wrecking some of the plants,"

Lady Wu: (Stands up from her throne) WHAT? Bring me there!

Everyone raced to see the trashed palace gardens. Dead flowers lay every where.

"Oh, no! Oh, pretty sparkly pink…" Lady Wu cried as she pointed to a lifeless flower. "Purple pretty purple…" she pointed to a lifeless purple flower.

Everyone remained silent. Lady Wu was extremely pissed off. "Ok, that is the last straw!"

"My lady, may I remind you that the monster didn't only do this; he tried to take your daughter by force," said Zhou Yu.

"THIS ENGAGEMENT IS SO OVER!" yelled Lady Wu.

XXXXXXXXXX

The following day, they had managed to find Liu Bei at he outskirt boundaries of the Wu kingdom. The minute Lady Wu saw him, she came stomping angrily towards him. "LIU BEI, YOU FILTH!"

Liu Bei was shocked. "So, you have all discovered my plan, huh?"

Lady Wu got even angrier. "You have deceived me! I thought that you were nice!"

"It wasn't me, it was them!" Liu bei pointed to the generals of Wu who had accompanied Lady wu to the outskirt boundaries of Wu.

Lady Wu shook her head in disbelief. "I don't believe my fellow Wu officers would do such things. You trashed my garden, started war with my kingdom and tried to take my daughter by force, didn't you?"

"Yeah, so?"

"GET HIM!!" yelled the others.

"This engagement is so off!" said Lad Wu as she walked away form Liu Bei.

Gan Ning immediately ran up to Lady Wu. "My lady, can your daughter go with me?" he was on his knees.

Lady Wu thought for awhile. "Hmm…I guess that will be okay,"

Gan ning cheered. "Yes! Thank you, my lady. You are the best. I grant you prosperity and may you live long,"

"Aww…" Lady Wu started pinching his cheeks. "Aren't you sweet? You are just the perfect man for my little girl, although I would like to advise you to wear a shirt,"

"Then I will…anything for Shang Xiang!"

AN: Well that's all. It all ends in the next chapter.
