"All right you youngsters, time to wake up! First day of school!" a loud and cheery voice called.
Guan Yu stirred in his bed. He went to stroke his beard for comfort, but when he went to touch it, it was gone! He sat up in his bed startled. He saw that he was in a school dormitory. That's right Guan Yu thought, that crazy, old guy is forcing us to attend his school.
"I'm your home room teacher, Huang Zhong and it's almost time to start your first class, so make your beds, while I hand out your timetables" the voice said.
Guan Yu then saw the owner of the voice. The man was semi tall, had light, brown hair and had a big smile on his face. This was probably because he was 60 yesterday and was 25 today.
"Oh, whoops, forgot. Your uniforms are in the wardrobes over there. The wardrobes over on the right are the smallest uniforms and as they go left they get bigger. Okay hurry up," Zhong spoke a bit fast and after he finished he did some cartwheels out of the door.

"Hey, brother! What have you got this morning?" a loud booming voice shouted from behind Guan Yu. Guan Yu sighed. He turned to see his younger brother, Zhang Fei, who was with Liu Bei, his older brother. "Me and Liu Bei have a double melee combat lesson," Zhang Fei stated.
Yu smiled.
"So do I. Let's get going. It starts in 5 minutes".
"Oh crap! It does too! Quick, let's hurry!" Fei said looking at his time table.

The brothers made it just in time for the lesson.
"Welcome to your first lesson students. I will be your teacher. My name is Huang Zhong." Zhong introduced himself. "Now over there is a couple of different weapons to choose from, but be careful, we only have just enough weapons for everyone, so the weapon you choose now will be your weapon for the rest of the year." Zhong warned.
Guan Yu chose a glaive as his weapon.
"Now you may choose your own partners for sparring" Huang Zhong instructed.
"I see you have a sword, want to be my sparring partner?" Liu Bei asked another person with a sword, who was from phoenix.
"Sure. What's your name?" the phoenix asked.
"Liu Bei. Yours?" Liu Bei answered.
"Cao Cao," he answered.
"I'll fight you," a student with an eye patch challenged Guan Yu.
"Sure. What's your name?" Yu asked.
"Xiahou Dun," the challenger answered.
"Mine is Guan Yu. What's with the eye patch?" Yu asked.
"I have a lazy eye," Dun answered.
"That give me a bit of an advantage," Yu taunted.
"I'll still kick your ass," Dun replied.
Zhang Fei was paired with Xiahou Yuan.
"Now that everyone is in pairs, you may begin your fight." Zhong instructed.
"Shouldn't you teach us how to fight?" one student asked.
"Oh, you'll be fine," Zhong said casually.
"But--"
"Do you want to end up like that student that Zuo Ci zapped?" Zhong snapped.
"I am that student!" the student exclaimed.
"That explains why you're so ugly. Now fight!" Zhong ordered.
Dun swung his scimitar to Yu's side. Yu blocked the blow and swung his weapon at Dun's leg. Dun blocked the blow.
Fei had knocked Yuan's battle rod out of his hands. Fei quickly put his spear next to his Yuan's neck.
"I win," Fei gloated.
Cao had won his battle against Liu Bei.
"Okay, now stop fighting and change partners," Zhong instructed.
"That was fun," Xiahou Dun commented on his fight. This is going to be a long day, Yu thought.

At lunch, the three brothers sat under a peach tree talking about their day.
"I had Huang Gai for military weapon," Zhang Fei shuddered.
"You think that's bad. I had an evil teacher called Lard Ner for reading and writing," Guan Yu shuddered even more.
"Hey look, it's those rich, fancy guys," Liu Bei pointed out.
"It is to! Look, its Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo, Wei Yan and the fittest guy in the school, Xu Zhu," Fei agreed.
Over with the rich guys…
"I say, old chaps, how much money do you have?" Wei Yan asked his friends.
"I have 1000000000000 Yuan" Shao answered.
"So do I," Zhuo said.
"I have 999999999999 Yuan," Xu Zhu said.
"You're poor. Come on guys let's leave this poor guy alone to be poor," Dong Zhuo said harshly and they left Xu Zhu alone.
After wandering around a bit feeling sorry for himself, a voice called to him, "hey Xu Zhu, you look lonely, want to play cricket?"
Xu Zhu turned to see Dian Wei, Xu Huang and some other students playing a game of cricket.
"I say, good old chaps that sound like jolly good fun" Zhu brightened.
"Right, whatever. You can be on my team," Dian Wei said.
Zhu hurried to the game.
"Here it comes," Wei said as he threw the ball.
Huang hit the ball in the air.
"I've got it! I've got it!" Zhu shouted.
The ball hit Zhu in the temple.
"That's another notch for my great bat!" Huang stated.
"Why are you talking about tour bat when you just hit Xu Zhu in the head!" Wei exclaimed.
"Hey, you threw the ball funny! It's not my fault!" Huang defended.
"You were batting!" Wei Shouted.
"Shouldn't we check on him? For all we Know he could be dead!" a short guy interrupted. (So you know this was Cao Ren).
"I hate to be mistaken as a good guy, but I think Cao Ren is right," a student with antennae sticking out of his head. (For not so bright people this was Lu Bu).
They went to go and check on Zhu.
"Xu Zhu, are you okay?" Wei asked.
"Ughh……" Zhu moaned. Then he said in a stupid voice, "food tastes good".
Dian Wei and Xu Huang looked at each other.
"Uh oh".
