Chapter 2

(Liu Chan: Main Base)

"You are to stay here at the main base," father commanded and then ran out of the base. He ran before I could argue with him.

"No!"I said and ran out of the base.

"Liu Chan!" I herd Yue Ying yell from inside the base, I ignored her and continued to run. I stopped to catch my breath and to look and see where I am. All I see is Wei troops coming at me.

"Great," I thought and started fighting.

"You may be able to take out my men, but can you defeat me?" a woman's voice said form behind. I turned and saw Zhen Ji. She swung at me with her whip-like weapon, it wrapped around my left leg, she pulled back, and I twisted in the air and landed on my back. I laid there for a moment and then felt this incredible pain on my side, she hit me again and this time it's bleeding. I got to my feet and was faceing her.

"Had enough?" she smirked.

"You wish," I said and took out my blade. "Take that." And I was now fighting her. I was doing really well until I was struck in the back by a blade. I fell to my hands and knees.

"That's what you get for hurting my love, Zhen Ji," Cao Pi said.

"This is just great," I thought. "Just great."

"Thank you my lord," she said. I had a feeling I wasn't going to make it through this.

Just then I herd another sound and Cao Pi fell to the ground next to me, I turned my head and saw Ma Chao.

"Lady Cahn are you alright?" he asked helping me to my feet.

"Yes." I answered and from the corner of my eye I saw Zhen Ji ready to strike. "Watch out!" I yelled and pushed him out of the way and was hit on my left side, the same side from before. Then Cao Pi grabbed me and held his sword to my neck.

"You follow us, she dies," he said putting me on his horse and then we took off.

"Help me Ma Chao!" I yelled before he was out of sight.

(Ma Chao)

"Liu Chan!" I yelled and went to my knees. A messenger came up to me.

"Master Chao?" he said.

"What?" I yelled so angrily.

" I'm to tell you the Lu Bu and Cao Cao have retreated and you are to go to the main base," he answered and left.

I looked at my hands, they were covered in her blood.

"How could I let this happen, I was supposed to protect her and bring her back to the base?" I said and put my hands to my face. I knelt there thinking and took my hands off and saw her blade laying in front of me. I got up and picked up her blade and started to run to the main base.

"I promise I'll get you back, even if it's the last thing I do." I said.

(Liu Chan: Lu Bu's Castle)

"We have her father," Cao Pi said taking me off of the horse. I was blind folded and my hands are tied behind my back, an easy way to take advantage of me, which he did.

"Good, Lu Bu will be really glade to know we have returned his lost daughter," Cao Cao said.

"Daughter of Lu Bu?" I thought, then I remembered the battle from when I was five and my father found me on the groung curled up.

"No, he can't be my birth father," I thought and my eyes were uncovered.

"Now are you going to behave or will I have to do what I did last night?" Cao Pi asked.

"I don't understand why men have to take advantage of and be controlling to women," I thought. "I'll behave." I saidand he untied my hands.

"I really didn't want to hurt your beautiful body," he said touching the wound on my back, the one he made. "But you had given me no choice," he said in my ear and put his hands on my shoulders.

"Don't touch me," I said and took a step forward.

"Very well, follow me,"he said and I did. We stopped in front of the castle's main doors, one of them opened and he gestured me to walk throughit. I did and he did not follow me in, standing five yards in front of me was my birth parents, Lu Bu and Diao Chan.

(Ma Chao: Main Base)

"Where is she, I told her to stay here?" Zhao Yun said angrily as I entered the main base.

"I'm so sorry Master Yun,"I said and pulled out her blade. He looked at me and saw her blade.

"No, she can't be dead,"he said and took the blade.

"She's not dead, Cao Pi and his wife took her, if I followed them ,they would've killed her,"I said.

"We have to get her back before…"he said.

"I know,"Liu Bei interrupted him.

"Before what?"I asked.

"Before she reunited with her birth parents, Lu Bu and Diao Chan,"Zhao Yun answered.

"Oh!" I said shocked, I grew up with her ever since she was six and I was nine. She's my best friend that I have feelings for. "Master Yun, with all my might I will bring your daughter back," I said and bowed and left.
