The Lost Chance pt.2
"Xiahou Dun, at your service. " Dun said.
Zhou Yu was confused.
"What the Hell? You? But…why would she go for you? You're Cao Cao's lackey!"
Dun strode up to him. "Since tonight I have retrieved the Love of my Life, and you have lost, I will spare your life from that heinous comment."
Xiao Qiao nestled up close to Dun.
"Isn't he such a gentleman?" She asked.
Zhou Yu's blood was boiling.
"You, sir, have just disrespected me and insulted my honor! I challenge you to a duel!" Yu said.
Dun motioned his hand down.
"Quiet. There are still guards on patrol. Calm down. There is no offense here. Do you require reparations?" he asked, pulling out some gold.
"NO! I want satisfaction!" Yu said, reeling back.
"Then perhaps we should get out of here!" Xiao hissed.
"Good plan, my darling." Dun said.
"Zhou Yu, can you guide her to the exit? I need to help my friend escape."
Xiao Qiao pouted. "But Dunny… I want to be at your side always."
Dun stroked her chin. "My darling, never again will we be apart, but I must rescue my friend who may be in danger. I shall think of you every second."
Zhou Yu retched.
"Behave, Zhou Yu!" Xiao said angrily, as Dun made his way back over the wall.
"Did it ever occur to you that perhaps Dun wants to retrieve your sister, and possess you both, without your knowledge?" Zhou Yu wondered aloud.
Xiao kicked him in the shin.
"You really are sulking! Come on, maybe I can fix you up with my sister!"
Dian Wei and Sun Ce were surrounded.
The Good news was that they knew where Diao was.
The bad news was that they were surrounded by hundreds of angry soldiers.
"Hmmm… perhaps we should have been sneakier." Dian Wei noted.
Dong Zhou laughed. "Game over, you two. Wouldn't have thought YOU two of all people would work together! Oh well, live and learn."
Then, one of the elite guards fell over, dead.
"What!" Dong Zhou cried.
Xiahou Dun was standing atop a wall, bow aimed.
The moon shone behind him.
"GET HIM!" Dong Zhou spat.
The soldiers in the front turned and charged Dun.
He leapt from the wall and swung his scimitar, killing five in one swing.
The guards gasped and backed up.
Then a soldier went flying past Zhou.
"What?"
Dian Wei obviously was irked, as he grabbed soldiers by the head and wielded them as projectiles.
The soldiers refocused, and circled Dun, Wei, and Sun Ce.
Ce had three soldiers gutted on his tonfa.
"Nice to meet you, the legendary Xiahou Dun." Ce noted.
"Son of Jian, I am honored to meet you as well." Dun said.
The soldiers closed in, spears pointed.
"Some rescue." Wei muttered.
Dong Zhou heard a cry from behind.
"What? More intruders!"
Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao were cutting through the soldiers' line.
"That's my girl!" Dun yelled.
The soldiers about to gut our heroes turned and charged Yu.
"Oh Shit." Zhou Yu said.
They fell over, dead.
Dun stood behind them, wiping the blood off of his scimitar.
"Nice assist." He noted.
Dong Zhou laughed.
"Who cares? I outnumber you one hundred to one! You have no chance!"
Little did he know of Dun's plan.
"Fire!" he cried out.
Zhou laughed. "What? Is that supposed to scare me!"
Then he saw the catapult rigged to go off, and the flaming pot of oil coming at him.
"Ohh….RETREAT!" He cried.
The men ran off.
"How did you do that!" Zhou Yu yelled.
Diao Qiao walked out from behind the catapult.
"Hehe! I like fire!"
