Lesson 1: Waking Up With Grace

The following morning had arrived, and Yuan Shao was already up and ready to go. Inside his illustrious and decorated mansion, he travels upstairs to the guest quarters to see if his subjects were awake and prepared to start the day's lessons.

"ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz," was the universal response Yuan Shao gets when he opens the door to the room. A dozen of hand-pick Dynasty Warrioers were all sprawled about their beds, snoring loudly and rudely, certainly not what our tutor had hoped to see.

"Tsk tsk. This won't do at all," Yuan Shao states before turning to you: the reader. "Just look at these men! How on earth am I supposed to give you guys a lesson if my men are still slumbering in their beds? Well, we'll just have to wake them now, won't we?" he states, walking over to the closest one to him: Zhong Hui.

"Ahem. Lord Zhong Hui, wake yourself up. It is time to wake before the vastly handsome and important Yuan Shao," Yuan Shao says to him in his ear.

"Mmph….grrr….no Zhuge Dan…I told you…I don't want to become your boyfriend…you fruitcake…my heart…belongs to Sima Shi…" Zhong Hui grumbles, apparently dreaming of something...interesting.

"Ew…" Yuan Shao replies, backing away from him for the moment. "Um…I think I'll try someone else…" he states, walking over to Meng Huo, who slept by the window.

"Ahem…Lord Meng Huo…please wake up. Duty calls," Yuan Shao says to him, poking at his arm that hung over the side of his bed.

SMACK!

CRASH!

The minor disturbance caused the half-sleep Nanman King to swat Yuan Shao so hard he flew through the window and fell six stories before hitting their ground outside.

Soon after Yuan Shao could be heard stomping back up the stairs inside his castle before he slams the door open, holding a megaphone in his hand.

"NOW SEE HERE, COMMONERS, WAKE UP RIGHT NOW! YOU'RE TRYING MY PATIENCE!" he yells at them.

The call to action jolted everyone awake immediately, causing the warriors to hop out of their beds and rush out the room to wash up and shower…

TRAMPLE TRAMPE TRAMPLE!

…running over Yuan Shao in the process.

"By the symbol of my family's honor…this is going to be one long day…" Yuan Shao says before passing back out on the ground.
