Chapter 7

The Morning After

Zhang Liao
continued to sharpen his spear as Guan Yu and Xu Huang talked beside him. He couldn�t stop thinking about what they had
been told last night. Cao Cao had calmly
entered the room and announced that Xiahou Dun had taken Ling as his wife in a
private ceremony. It had stunned nearly
everyone. He knew it was coming, but for
it to be so private made him wonder. What worried him the most was the rumors
he was hearing about the man. He frowned
as Zhang Fei and Liu Bei began arguing over Diao Chan. The poor woman just sat on the ground, a
battered shell of the beauty she once was.
At least she was accustomed to this�abuse. What about Ling? She had always been safe under the protection
of her father. Sure she got slapped
every now and then, but what kid didn�t?
He looked to Guan Yu who was shaking his head.
�Those two
are going to tear each other up over her.� Yu frowned.
�At least
she�s better off than Lu Bu�s girl.� Huang shrugged as he looked away from the
confrontation.
�What do
you mean?� Liao asked.
�Dun�s a
bit violent. If that girl keeps talking
the way she had, he�s going to smack the shit out of her.� Huang informed him.
�Well,
she�s used to reprimands�.� Liao began to say then saw the sorry look in the man�s
eyes.
�Liao��
Huang dig his toe in the dirt wondering how to break the news to the man. �Uh�he�s wanted for murder in Youzhou for
killing a woman who talked down to him.
She was the wife of the governor and she said something�.well anyhow he just
pounded the life out of her.�
�What?�
Liao went pale. How the hell could he
have advised her to marry him? What had
he done?
�Both of
these girls should have been given merciful deaths.� Guan Yu stood up. �Perhaps I can help one of them.�
�Oh, don�t
get involved.� Huang warned.
�I have no
choice. I can�t have her tear our
brotherhood apart.�
�What the
hell do you want with her!� Zhang Fei hollered at Liu Bei.
�I don�t
understand how you can be so horrible to her Fei. I don�t care if you�ve been drinking.� Bei
answered
�You want
her for yourself? Huh? Just because you
don�t have a wife right now that means you think you�re entitled to all of her
right?�
�Yide,
you�re drunk. I�m not discussing this
with you until you�re sober again. However
I won�t let you take her with you, you�ve done her enough harm.�
As the men
continued to argue Chan looked up at Guan Yu who had his Blue Moon Dragon and
looked down at her sadly. �Do it please.
You are an honorable man, please let me join him.�
�I hope you
will be happy.� He nodded and raised his weapon.
�I will be
with you soon Fengxian.� She smiled and bowed her head. She smiled softly thinking about meeting her
love as the blade detached her head from her body.
Zhang Fei
and Liu Bei looked over at Guan Yu, startled. Yu stepped away from the dead
woman and looked to them �Now there is nothing that will tear us apart.�

Xiahou Dun
heard the rooster crow and slowly opened his eyes. The odd thing was his left eye wasn�t
opening, so still groggy; he tried to use his left hand to rub it. Oddly his left arm didn�t move either, it
felt as it something was laying on it.
Annoyed he swiped his eye with his right hand only to smack the empty
socket with his knuckle and inflict pain upon himself. Startled he tried to sit up, but that heavy
thing prevented that as well. Now incredibly
pissed off with the dream, he looked down at the obstacle�..a girl? That was enough to force him awake and he
quickly remembered the past few days events.
First he had lost an eye�then he got married. Slowly he allowed himself to look over his
young wife, who was nestled up against the left side of his body with her arm
draped over his chest. Last night had
been one of the most interesting experiences of his life, but that didn�t
surprise him. Everyone knew of her
father�s libido, he fucked every woman in a ten mile radius of Chang An when he
was younger, so he took a wild guess she had inherited that from him as
well. It was a very accurate guess. If
Lu Bu could have only seen his baby girl on top of him last night��she
defiantly wanted to learn. �Wake
up.�
Lu Ling Qi
fidgeted slightly and readjusted her position.
Why did her pillow feel so damned warm?
A voice, very close and very gruff, accosted her thoughts.
�Lazy
little bitch, get off me.�
Ling opened
her eyes as soon as her pillow began to move and the bed got grabby. She was somewhat surprised to see that her
pillow was a man and grabby bed was none other than his left hand. �Huh?�
�Time to
get up.� Dun flipped her off of him and swung his legs over the side of the
bed. So this was married life.
Ling
shifted uncomfortable, she was sore. She
was never sore�.oh. She grunted and
rolled off the bed in the opposite direction of her husband. The early morning sunlight filtered through
the window to shine a spotlight on the remains of her virginity on the stained bed
sheets. Two reminders of the previous night�s
events. Then again, she had absolutely
no reason to complain. She had enjoyed
herself and he had been kind despite being an ass and teasing her about her
inexperience. After the initial bout of
insults they had settled into an understanding: He knew and she wanted to
learn. Declaring a trace had mutual
benefits and they quickly put aside their differences. �Let me look at your eye.�
�If you let
the other one stare at your tits.�
Ling laughed. He was abrasive and she couldn�t help but like
it. All this time she had been admonished
for talking the way she did, now she had by chance stumbled upon the one person
that cursed more than she. It was a nice
distraction from reality and she appreciated it. Putting the thoughts to the back of her head
she grabbed the small bowl of water and washcloth from last night and walked
over to him. His long ebony hair was
tussled and had some crusted blood chips in it.
�Why is it bleeding again?�
�I have a tendency
to forget I don�t have it in the mornings.
You know, thirty years of it being there, two days missing.�
�Lay down.�
She knelt on the bed and waited for him.
�You just want to be difficult don�t you?�
�I don�t
need�� He grumbled as she scooted over next to him and dabbed at his face. �Damnit! You know I can�t see you when you do
that!�
�That�s the
idea.� She smiled and turned his face toward hers. �We need to find some ointment for this.�
�Fine.�
�You want
to wash this shit out of your hair?� She asked as she picked a crumble of the
scab out of his hair.
�It�s
probably from the cuts you gave me.� Dun looked over at his clothes hanging on
a chair. They seemed so damned far away.
He sat on the side of the bed and watched the blood clot chips hit the floor as
she picked them out. �We�re leaving
today. Anything you want to take with
you?�
�I don�t
have anything anymore. It�s all been
given away to the victorious officers.� She said bitterly and began to comb
through his hair. It was odd how now she
seemed alright with him. He had the
chance to be horribly cruel to her last night, but instead he ridiculed her and
walked her through it. She couldn�t be upset about the ridicules either; she
would have done the same thing if their roles were reversed. �What do you really want with me?�
�Fight alongside
me during the day, fuck me at night.
That�s all you need to do.�
�I can
accept that.� She let his hair fall from her fingers and jumped out of the bed
to brush through her own. Yes, especially if it gets me closer to your
cousin.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

�Feel better?� Yuan asked slyly as
his brother sat down next him with his breakfast.
�Better
than any gift you ever gave me.� Dun pushed his sibling with a grin.
Cao Cao
looked over at his favorite cousin and sincerely hoped he would recover from
his wound. Yuan already had shown
extreme concern at his inability to defend himself on his blind side. It would take time, but that was something
they didn�t have. He hated to think of
what it would do to Dun if he forced him to general from his horse, behind his
lines. Then he directed his attention to
his newest family member who was returning with a plate of food. Dun forced Xu Huang to move over so that his
wife would be able to sit down next to him, something that shocked the stoic
warrior. So she made it through the night�..and without a scratch. How odd. �Good
morning Lady Lu.� Cao smiled
�Good
morning, Lord Cao.� She replied and stopped as Zhang Fei stumbled past her.
�They just
let everyone eat with us, don�t they?� Fei snorted, semi-drunk. �Hopefully you had as good a time as Diao
Chan did last night.�
�I wouldn�t
be too worried about Chan; she�s quite capable of pretending to enjoy her time
under an obnoxious inebriated asshole.� Ling shifted her wait and leered at the
man.
�Funny she
told me I was much better than your daddy.�
Zhang Liao
sat at the long banquet table and watched as Ling�s blood began to boil. He knew from the way she was standing. So she would finally snap, and Zhang Fei was
her victim. He looked to Xiahou Dun who
had remarkably come in content with an unharmed and proud Ling behind him when
they had all assembled for breakfast.
The man now sat watching his new wife pick a fight with the large man,
to the unknowing observer a very uneven battle.
Maybe the man really did like her�.maybe there was a chance she wouldn�t
end up dead by his hand. He could only
hope.
�I find
that hard to believe.� She rolled her eyes,�You�d never be able to match my
father in anything. Especially when the
only women you�ve had have had four legs.�
�Well I�m
not a charred hull of a human being hanging by butcher hooks off the front
gate.� Fei sprayed spit at her. �But then again Little Chan isn�t doing very
much anymore either. Unless someone took
her headless body and made off with it.�
�But you
are a worthless drunken prick who couldn�t hold his own against my father even
with the help of his two brothers. I
doubt you�d fare any better against me.�
�You ought
to watch your mouth bitch; your cycloptic husband can�t do very much to protect
you. He can�t even parry anymore.� Fei
watched Dun�s head snap up and the outraged man begin to get out of his
seat.
Ling turned
to the table and dropped her plate, then slammed her fist into Fei�s rosy face.
�I�ll show you my strength. I will have
your inebriated ass on the ground begging for my forgiveness. Fight me if you
are so damned sure of yourself.�
�With
pleasure.� Fei spit out some blood and growled.
The girl had some power behind that punch, this
would be an interesting duel. He handed
his plate to Guan Yu and took his spear out of the corner. He looked back to
the infuriated woman in the center of the room. �What, no weapon?�
�I�ll have
to ask for a loaner.� She turned back to her new lord. �My lord, if I could
request a weapon. I�d like to teach this
boasting booze sponge a lesson, for the honor of my husband and my father.�
�What would
you like?� Cao looked at her. No wonder
Dun liked her so much; she was as bad as him.
�It makes
no difference to me.� She looked over her shoulder. �Better make it a sword.
I�d hate to make him cry by defeating him with his own weapon class.�
Dun was
still standing and thought about offering her Kirin Fang, but it was a
difficult weapon to wield and he was afraid it would be too much for her to
handle. He looked up to see Cao hand her
the Wrath of Heaven. It was the first time anyone other than the swordsmith or
Cao had handled the weapon, and he was truly speechless.
�Use mine
then.� Cao handed her the sword that had taken her father�s head.
Liao�s eyes
grew wide. How the hell could Cao Cao be
so stupid? He looked at the man�s steady
gaze into Ling�s eyes. He was daring her
to try and kill him with his own sword.
He was a hell of a lot more percept than Liao had initially given him
credit for. Please Ling, don�t throw your life away like this.
�You�re
going to need a hell of a lot more than that, sweetie!� Fei spat. �I can take
on a thousand men with no problem.�
�Then we�ll
make it more interesting.� She smiled and bowed to Liu Bei. �May I also borrow
your sword sir? Since you don�t have the
strength to keep your general in line, I�ll use your weapon to do it.�
Liu Bei
stared at her and reluctantly handed her the Gold Moon Dragon. He watched as
she took the two swords and easily spun them in her delicate hands, as if she�d
been using them her entire life. Then he
saw the same glint of fury that he saw in Lu Bu�s eyes when he fought him, it
was almost as if she was possessed by the great warrior.
Liao let
his shoulders fall. By god she was going
to do it. She was going to try and kill
both of them and only he and Cao Cao saw it, or at least believed she could do
it. He stared at Ling and for a second
she glanced at him. NO! He wanted to scream at
her, but instead she turned back to Zhang Fei.
Ling expertly whipped the two
incredible swords through the air and then crossed them in front of her. She bowed to Fei, �Shall we?�
Fei cocked
an eyebrow. �Yeah, bring it.�
�With
pleasure.� She immediately took the offensive and Fei was forced to block
against the twin swords. Ling slid across
the floor as he brought his Serpent Spear up to toss her away. She leaned back
on her right leg and held the Gold Moon Dragon out in her left hand while
bringing the Wrath of Heaven above her head in her right hand. She stared the big man now with unwavering
eyes.
Fei was
still struggling with his hangover, but he suspected she�d still be a handful
if he was completely sober. She had to
be equally handicapped by using two unfamiliar blades�and such large and heavy
ones at that. Why did it seem like she
was really comfortable with them then?
He narrowed his eyes and lunged at her and batted at the sword in her
left hand hoping to spin into her and twist his spear around and lock up both
weapons, it was exactly what she wanted him to do.
Ling
quickly spun to her right, shielding herself against Fei�s attack with the
Wrath of Heaven and whipping the Gold Moon Dragon around to attack him in his
weakened state. He narrowly escaped
having his gut split open.
Fei wiped a
bit of sweat off his brow and looked at her.
Where the hell had she learned how to use a pair of swords like
that? He ran at her, it was an
embarrassment to not have the woman subdued already. He faked a blow to the right and struck out
at her left leg, trying to juggle her.
Instead she met him with his brother�s sword and used Cao�s weapon to
lock up his spear. With a twist of her
weapons she pinned he spear to the ground and high kicked him in the head,
dropping him to he knees.
�I win.�
She jumped back and spun the weapons in her hands, tossed them in the air and
grabbed them by the blades, without doing any damage to her hands. She turned back to the owners of the weapons
and grinned. It would be so easy to take
both their lives with their own weapons, but something Liao had said suddenly
struck her. You have to understand that a
war is about to break out and we need a strong leader to keep China together.
If we are divided and ravished by war, this country will be destroyed. Yes, the country was heading into a very
long war and there were currently several options available if one wanted to
pick sides. Certainly Cao Cao would try
to assume the empty throne and Liu Bei would take offense to that. That would send Liu Bei off to make a claim
of his own. Then there was that Sun
family who thought they were entitled to a lot more then they deserved and Yuan
Shao would obviously think he deserved the country since his money had bought
him everything else. There were a few
other minor warlords who would try, but did not have the charisma or resources
to pull it off. So that left four men:
Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao and Sun Jian didn�t appreciate what they currently had and she
had quite a dislike for Jian�s obnoxious heir and his Qiao stealing
friend. So that left Liu Bei who was
whining about the Han and the people all the time and Cao Cao who had
personally executed her father. The
options solely based upon her personal opinions were not good, so she needed to
base this decision on fact. Cao Cao was the
stand out amongst them; He had the power, the knowledge and the ambition to
take the throne and lead the country into another three hundred years of
prosperity. Liu Bei, although no doubt
virtuous, cared too much about everything.
Emotion had no place in decision making process however his charisma
seemed to make up for it. If she were to
eliminate these two men today, the country would loose the two chances it had
to return to its former glory. With a polite smile she handed them their
swords, hilt first, and respectfully as the men accepted their blades back.
�Thank you, they are truly phenomenal weapons.�
Dun smiled
as his new wife humiliated Zhang Fei, it served him right. She sauntered back around the table and sat
down next to him, pulling her breakfast plate over to her. Everyone in the room gave him the same
stunned, but jealous, look. So this was
married life.
Liao
breathed a sigh of relief. That was
close�.what the hell made her change her mind?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Cao Cao watched
Dun tighten the girth of his saddle and then turned back to Xiahou Yuan. �He
seems�.happy.�
�I think
they�re cute together.� Yuan snickered.
�I didn�t
expect her to take to him��
�Suspicious?�
Yuan asked.
�Mmm�� Cao
watched Ling walk across the courtyard to her husband�s side. It was obvious that she was uncomfortable
without her weapon; he could see it in the way she walked. He also saw her desire to cleave his head off
with his own sword. But she hadn�t, why
was that?
�What are
you thinking?� Yuan asked never really understanding his cousin�s thoughtful
blank stare.
�I wonder
how well she�ll handle seeing her daddy hanging from the gate.�
�Hey
Mengde?� Yuan said quietly. �If he really likes her�.maybe we can help them out
a bit.�
�Miaocai,
even I do not possess the diplomatic ability to meddle in your brother�s love
life.�
�But�� Yuan
watched as Ling helped tie a bedroll on the back of Dun�s saddle. �He�s never had a love life before. He�s bound to screw it up.�
�And I
thought Dun was the one with brain damage.� Cao shook his head and turned to
his new horse, Firestorm.
