Disclaimer: Disney owns them! Disney owns them! Not me! Well, Lynn and Leo I own, oh, and Bai.
A/N: Please forgive me! I'm sorry for such along wait! I truly am sorry. To make it up to you, I'll write another chapter.
Chapter Four
It had been four days since Lynn and Leo left to find their mother. And they knew that they must be getting close, they where reaching the edge of the Tung Shou Pass. At this point, Leo knew that Bai couldn't do much. He was still much to young to go that far. "Lynn, are you awake?" Leo asked feeling Lynn stir.
"Hmm." Lynn mumbled. "Ow!"
"Lynn?" Leo asked.
"Why'd you have to go and pinch me?" she asked rubbing her left leg.
"Sorry, but we should put our coats on. It's starting to get colder." Leo responded hand her the fur coat from the side bag.
"Oh. Thank you." she said taking it, then putting one around him. "Leo, how much further do you think we have to go?"
"I'm not sure, but we are reaching the edge of the Tung Shou Pass." he answered.
"Put me down! I can walk!" Mulan screamed beating at the back of Wei, who had her over his shoulder.
"No, we aren't falling for that one again." Chi Fu said from behind them. "You tried to get away once, and you won't do it again."
"Xun, open the door!" Wei bellowed at him, his voice bouncing off the cave walls.
"You do it!" Xun retorted.
"Ow! Stop hitting me. I can't." Wei said as Mulan hit him on the back of the head.
"Fine." Xun said going forward. He fumbled with some keys and Mulan heard a door creak open. "There. You happy now?"
"Yes. Thank you." Wei answered plopping Mulan on the stone floor and walking out again. Xun shutting the door behind him. "Ow, she hits hard." Wei said walking away.
Chi Fu walked up the metal bars and said through them, "You might recognize your cellmates." and he left laughing.
Mulan watched him leave with a curious look. "Mulan?" she froze.
"Who's there?" she asked not moving from her position.
"Mulan. It's me." said the voice.
Slowly she turned around. "Who's me?" she asked into the darkness.
"Me would be your husband." answered the voice.
"What?" she asked bewildered.
"Yes, its me Mulan." answered the voice.
"No! You can't be! I'm losing my mind. Now I'm hearing him." she said scared.
"Mulan, it's really me. Yao, Ling, and Chien Po are here too." said the voice again.
Tears falling she said, "No! Your missing! Mulan your losing your mind, the voice you hear is only your imagination." She felt a hand on her arm. She screamed.
"Mulan, it's really me. Your not losing your mind." said the voice to her.
"Then step in the light so I can see you." she said to the darkness, knowing, or expecting no one. She saw movement and then in the pale glow of the candle on the outside of the cell, stood a man about six feet tall with black hair pulled back. Her eyes grew at the sight in front of her. There standing in the light, was in fact Shang. Tears falling heavily she said, "It is you." Going forward to hug him.
Embracing her he said, "Yes, it is me. I told you it was."
"Oh how I missed you." she said into his chest.
Lifting her head he answered, "I missed you too." then he leaned down and planted a kiss on her lips.
When they broke apart she asked, "What happened?"
He merely answered, "I'll tell you later."
Lynn could feel the coldness nip at her nose. She could surly tell that they were going further into the pass. But she didn't know how much longer she could stay riding Bai. In front of her Leo was slipping from the saddle. "Leo? Leo? Come on. Let's stop."
Mumbling he said, "No. If we stop, we might not find Mama."
"But if we keep going, we might," she started.
"Horse track. There!" Leo cut in.
"What? Where?"
"There. Yah!"
"Chi Fu, I expected you here days ago. Where's Mulan?" the Emperor asked from his throne.
"She wasn't home Your Majesty." Chi Fu answered.
"Wasn't home? Well where would she be? She's got her children to take care of." He asked.
"Her children where at Fa Zhou's Your Majesty." Chi Fu answered.
"Hmm. Then where would she be. Surely she wouldn't go out and find her husband by herself?" The Emperor said.
"No sir. Surely not." Chi Fu answered.
"Thanks for your help and for your trouble Chi Fu. You are dismissed. "
"Your welcome Your Majesty." Chi Fu bowed and turned, a sly smile on his features. When he reached the throne room doors he turned to his henchmen. "Let's go. Did you gather more?"
Wei looked around to see if anyone was listening then turned back and said, "Yes sir, they are waiting for you in the gardens."
"Fine, let's go." Chi Fu said walking past Wei and Xun.
"Sir, why is it you wanted more help?" Xun asked.
"Because we need to find those brats of her's you twit." Chi Fu sneered.
"Oh right." Xun said.
"Alright men. Listen closely, because I will not repeat myself." he said turning and looking a Wei and Xun. "I want two of you to go back to the Li home and find those brats, and bring them to the pass. The sooner we have the Li family, the sooner our plan can move into action. If those twins aren't there, find them, I want them alive. You to are going to do that." Chi Fu said pointing to two well built men. They nodded their response and Chi Fu continued. "Four of you are going to go to neighboring cities and find the rest of my army. They know that you are coming for them. When you find them, come to the pass. The rest of you will come with me. We hurry back to the pass and keep an eye on those we've already got. Xun, Wei, watch General Li and Li Mulan the closest. If anything happens, it'll be your butts on the line. Everything said, we move tonight." Chu Fu finished and turned to go.
"Sir, what if someone finds out about this?" One of the built men said.
"Deny it." Chi Fu said and walked away.
"So what is he going to do?" Mulan asked. Shang and the trio had told her the story of what happened more than a year earlier.
"We don't know. He said that he was going to find you and the twins." Shang said.
Mulan sat in horror. "The twins!"
"What's happened?" Yao asked from their hidden corner.
"Shang, they might be in trouble. I don't know where they are. Knowing them, they would come to find me." Mulan said, tears falling.
"Mulan, they would probably go to your parents house." Shang answered.
"No, they wouldn't. I know that they are out trying to find me now as we speak." she said, choking on her tears.
"But how do you know?" Ling asked.
Mulan shot her head up, "I'm a mother Ling! I know these things! I know my own children!"
"Mulan, claim down. It's okay." Shang said hugging her.
She sobbed for a good 20 minutes before they heard noises behind them.
I know its short, but I have good reasoning to end it here. But you'll have to wait until the next chapter to find what will happen. And in the mean time, please review. Please excuse the spelling errors and such. Thanks. Mess531y.
