I do not own any of the DW characters; they belong to Koei or whoever. I do own the OC and some minor characters that might pop up.

The man stared at me. His brows creased and brown eyes scanning me as if I were a meal prepared wrong. He sighed before turning to face the girl. I could see his lips moving to tell her something but I could not hear the words at all. I paled; did I just lose my hearing? The girl bowed to him and vanished from sight. I stared at him, noticing little things here and there... weird things. Like how he was dressed. He wore armor as if he had come straight from a battlefield. His hair was coal black and long, pulled back in a ponytail, set low on the back of his head. He wore a circlet, as a princess would. I had to stifle a giggle for a moment; afraid it would insult him. At that, he raised a brow. Slowly he began to near me. He moved as though he did not fully trust me, as if I was going to hurt him. He stopped no less than two feet from the bed and once again scanned me. It felt as though he was looking into my very soul. I held quiet unsure of what to say much less how to say it. Inside my mind, I begged any deity that might be listening to let me just melt into the bed. His stare was intense, too intense for comfort, yet just as soon as I decided I had had enough; he looked away.

"Where are you from?" It was a simple question, spoken in a soft yet clearly strong voice. His accent was surprising, as was the fact that I could understand him. He spoke Chinese, I had never learned the language, yet I understood him. It was my turn to furrow my brows. His look turned to confusion.

"Do you not remember?" He took another step closer to me. My eyes returned to him and he stopped. It was almost like a game between him and I. I would look away, he would move a few inches closer, I look back he would stop. A smile came to my face and his brows furrowed again. He let a frustrated sigh and sat on a stool next to the bed. I assume that the girl had been on it before he took it. He stared at the floor for a few minutes, quietly, silently really. Finally, he looked up at me and leaned back.

"Do you remember your name?" His voice was softer this time, as if he was speaking to a child. I rolled my eyes at him and his brows went up in shock at my gesture.

I giggled at him now. I could not help it. I decided that I should try to speak to him. My own voice was shaky and felt like I had a desert in my throat. "My name is Koa Wynn," The words came in Chinese, as if I had spoken the language my entire life.

The man nodded, his did not move from my face. I could tell he was thinking, considering the next question he was going to ask me. He sighed again. "I am Zhao Yun." He stated before nodding at me again. He then stood, and turned for the door. Stopping just a foot away from it as it opened and the girl from before re-entered the room. She had a tray in her hands. The sent it emitted made my stomach growl.

Zhao Yun nodded to the girl, then he turned to look at me, his voice came softly again, "I will speak to my lord about what to do next. For now, you need to eat, and get some rest. I will be back in a few hours to speak to you again." With that, he left the room, leaving the other girl and me alone.

The girl gave me a warm smile as she crossed the room in a few quick steps; the tray rattling in her hands. She set it down in my lap and took the stool as he seat again. I stared at the metal; it smelled wonderful. However, it looked less than appetizing.

"It's alright, it's not poisoned. We would not do that to someone unless we knew who we were poisoning." The girl's voice showed she was indeed young, and she was very chipper as she spoke of killing people. As if, it was nothing new to her. I could not help the dumbfounded stare on my face, to this she giggled at me shaking her head, "You eat, it is better than it looks. I am going to leave you in peace. Just put the tray to the side when you are finished. I will come in and collect it in a bit." She smiled at me again, standing and skipping out the door.

I sat there and stared at the door. Shaking my head I looked back down at the tray, swallowing hard, I began. The girl was right, it was better than it looked. Once I finished it, I set the tray on the stool and laid back down. Sleep came quickly to me, a little too quickly in my opinion but I could not complain.

I awoke a few hours later to the sound of multiple voices in the room. They were quite, whispering as not to wake me. It sounded like Zhao Yun and another. I pulled the blanket down off my face. The fading orange glow through the window told me it dusk. I was correct about Zhao Yun being in the room, the other man sat on the stool next to the bed. He smiled at me, a kind smile; as if he knew, I was no harm. I sat up in the bed and Zhao Yun stepped closer to me; to stop me from sitting up I was not sure if his gesture was to make me rest or to keep me from being able to attack the other man. The other man smiled and raised a hand into the air. Zhao Yun stepped back and gave the man a small bow. The other man attentions turn back to me; the smile still on his face. My eyes moved across his head, taking in all the details of his face and hair. His hair was black, pulled up into a bun at the top of his head, being wrapped by a piece of what looked like gold. From the front, I could tell that something was hanging from the back. He cleared his throat bringing my attention back from his hair.

"I am Liu Bei, leader of the Shu army. Zhao Yun tells me your name is Koa Wynn. Is that correct?" He waited for me to nod before he continued, "You do not appear to be of our enemies ranks; so that beckons the question. Where are you from?"

I looked down, this question again. What is with these people with this question? I did not know how to answer that question. Maybe I would have a better idea if I asked one of my own. I sighed and looked back up to him, tilting my head to the side I spoke slowly, "Where am I?"

The man's smile vanished and he looked to Zhao Yun before he looked back to me and answered, "You are in the Shu capitol of Cheng Du."

I stared at him, unable to hide the shock in my eyes. The men stared back at me. I shook my head; I knew the history of the period in china when Shu was a kingdom. My brother had books on the subject he sometimes let me read. There was no way I could tell them that I was from North America. I was nearly two thousand years in the past, or appeared to be, there was no way they knew where that was. I put my hand on my forehead and rubbed it, as I was getting a headache. I needed some time to think on how I was going to try to explain where I came from. I just knew they would not believe me. Worse yet, if they did they would want me to explain how I got there; something I had no clue on. Putting a strain in my voice, feigning as if I was light headed. The men in the room moved forward, to keep me from falling off the bed. Zhao Yun 'helped' me lay back down; then moved away. The two men looked to one another and shook their heads.

Standing the other man spoke softly to me, "You rest, it would be better if you didn't try to remember when you are not ready." I nodded in response. With that, the two left. I spent most of the night trying to understand what was going on. My brain searched for answers but nothing would come to me. What in the world is going on?
