Chapter 4-Battle of Chi Bi(Part I)

At the sound of noon the Wu army moved out. They crossed the plains of north of Wulin. It was cold, though not that cold. The Wu army had a total of 30,000 marines and the Shu army had 20,000. All together their strength were about 70,000 to Cao Cao's "Tens of Thousands". It was clear they were no match for him.

They headed on their boats and prepared for battle. The rest of Lui Bei's main officiers arrived. Zhuge Liang was the first of them to arrive with 50 men total. He had 30 privates, 10 majors and 5 personal guards. Then was Pang Tong. He arrived with 40 men total. There were 30 privates, 5 majors, and 5 personal guards.

It's just at the peek of battle and all they can do is wait, wait for the the right move, wait for the right movement. They can do nothing, but wait!

Though, there was two people in perticular who just couldn't sit still and wait. They had "things" to do. Things that people who fall in love do... Things that could turn their world "white" or "blue".

Xiao Qiao's Pov

Where in the world is he? He's suppose to be here...with me...that's how love is, isn't it? Well, thats how it should be.

"Man..." I yelled,I could almost shout right about now, I bammed on the lower deck walls and kicked on its sides. "...where is he?"

For a minute all Icould do was stand there. And think. Think about this stupid battle and everything else. Mostly I thought of him. I leaned my head against the walls of the lower deck when I felt a hand upon my shoulder. I smiled hoping that it was him...

Yes, finally!

"Yes, its finally you." as I turned around expecting to see him smiling standing proud when...

"Xiao, I didnt expect you to open arm me this way."I rolled my eyes and sighed at the sight of seeing my sister. Then she asked concernly"Xiao, whats wrong?" I sighed once more "Is Lady Sun still bothering you...I'll tell her right now to-" I shook my head at her.She nodded "...your waiting for Gan Ning right?" I nodded. She pulled me in for one of her sisterly hugs, which I for one couldnt refuse, and she smiled " Xiao,he'll be here before you know it!" she pulled away with her hands still on my shoulder"trust me, he's coming..." she got dreamy all of a sudden "Ah, my sisters' in love...I remember me being in love with Sun Ce. He was so incre-"

Just as she got to talking the war trumpets started. For I was glad for this meant that I didnt have to hear another one of Da's boring love "memory" days with Sun Ce.It also meant we were preparing for battle. This also said that Pang Tong had been successful in the "prevent sea sickness and disease" chain plan. It had worked. It also said that Zhuge Liang was preparing the "Southeasten Winds".

Immediately I grabbed Da "Come on Da, its battle time." I smiled and she smiled. With that we ran to the upper deck...

Gan Ning's Pov

Damn, its not fair that I have to get up a stupid reinforcement crew up and wait,for some stupid orders. Rather than being with Xiao Qiao. This sucks you know.

I sat on a large tree trunk as I thought seriously about Xiao Qiao.Wondering what she was doing. Right now, this very hour. I got up and paced about, still thinking when my personal guard returned to me shiftly by my side. He then reported to me that my reinforcement crew was ready. He took me out to the crowd of 20,000 soldiers. I saw heros and wannabees. Then bullies and punks and everything in between. I nodded to my closest guard. Though I only had six cause I sent the other four to be with Xiao Qiao until I came back to the battleships. That was 5 miles away. Exactly 5 miles were I needed to be. And not here with some stupid losers.

I breathed for a moment and took several deep breaths. I nodded to the crowd "Let's get'em, boys!" They all let up a big cheer and most of them had their hands waving about in the air. Then we all marched cheerfully and proudly to the battleships.

XQ's Pov

"Watch out" I ducked and to my surpise came flying swords and spears. I looked around for Da to find her fighting her way through the crowd of jerks and jerkiest (female jerks). So, I shrugged and replyed " Yeah, lets break a couple heads and limps!!" I charged the crowd as well.

GN's Pov

We where almost there with only 1 mile to go. I was thinking hard about Xiao Qiao as one of my men said " Boss, should we send a messenger ahead of us?" I nodded. Still only thinking of Xiao Qiao and wondering what she doing at this very moment...

XQ's Pov

I quickly broke through the alliance of the mean and lean forces of Cao Cao. I was kicking pure butt, out here, I'm the best, I'm the Queen of martial arts, I'm the-

"Agh"

with that I hit the ground then I looked up to find Zhou Yu taking his sword out of the big and mean general of the "bad" forces of Cao Cao.

" Oh...thanks..." I breathed slowly "...Zhou Yu." he helped me up. His eyes where questionly and I knew exactly what he was thinking.

He looked away and then he began to speak "Xiao Qiao, I can only hope that your decision is accurate of him..." him...just as I thought he was taking about me and Gan Ning, but why cant he see what I see in him and why does he even care "...you two have seem to have grown really close to one another lately..." I was angry about this, he act as if I'm a child "...I know you think I am over-protective of you, its just that..." is reading my mind, after all he is an strategist "...I care about you alot..." I reacted to soon by walking away from him.

I yelled back at him "Stop acting like my father, Zhou Yu..." as I looked back he seemed astonished "...you might be taller and older but I bet I'm smarter.." His eyes where hurt I could tell, but I didnt care I came to far to let down now. I walked away.

"Xiao Qiao, wait!" he cried after me.

GN" Pov

As soon we got here I told men it was time to move aboard. Battle and chaos was everywhere and wanted a piece of it. But first I must find Xiao Qiao. That way we'll know where each other is at all times. "Sir we have already sent a force ahead of us, too let them know of our arrival." my sergent told me.

"Ok, thanks, Tiger." with that I nodded. And continued up to the south wing of the ship, there I knew I'd find Xiao Qiao there.

XQ's Pov

"No, you wait...I'm tried of waiting and were you waiting when you were with Jan Qia.." I got him, he was quiet, but then again what could he say "..my point exactly." I walked away. I guess me know of Ning's arrived made me this bold. I walked towards the south wing to meet Gan Ning finally!!
