Blood makes the grass grow

a different twist on the old tale......
okay this is where I am going with this story:what if there was an organazation that reallly ran things,a mafia before it was so well known,what if Liu bei was not the honarable man he was made out to be but just a charismatic man with good pr?what if Zhou yun to was not as noble and did netoriuos things as well?And Dong Zhou thou a tyrant...was not responsible for the burning of Luo Yang?
The summer of 185....the day of the end of the Han,and Misery on earth....

I sat on my hard wooden chair trying not to shift my weight,and my discomfort.Liu Yan was leading this meeting....My fathers cousin Mu zhi was here as well.My father was the famous blacksmith Severence.I was his only son...and heir to his legacy.To my left was Mu Zhi's neace.
Thou she did not know that I was aware that she was of the fairer gender.She was dressed in the simple uniform of a recruit...as was I.She looked nervous and Unshure she should be here,I gave her a encouraging smile....and turned my attention to the men on the opposite side of the table.First there was the giant of a man,his skin a deep red,his beard long and beutiful like spun silk....he was scouling at me and Mu Zhi's neace...his expresion was obvious'why are they here?'The next man over was far shorter,his ears were rather long and despite this he was attractive and had an air of charisma about him,and thou he hid it well with a modest humble demenior I could see there was ambition bellow the skin.The last Man was a burly fellow who was Figitting with impatience,obviously a man of action.With his wild beard and tapping knee he would scowl down at his empty cup
"General Dong Zhou has been cut off from the mainlines,seperated and some where lost in the enemy ranks....General Sun jian is moving at a fast speed and keeping those d amn yellow turban heathens occupied....While he is doing this,I want you Liu Bei to take a group of volinteers and slip in behingd the enemies main lines..Find general Dong Zhou,rescue him...and bring Him back to the capital...if possible!"The three men turned to look at Mi Zhi's neace and me...Liu Yan cleared his throat.With a bit of a sheepish expression he mumbled"Mi Zhi is Finacing your affairs...his nephew younge recruit Chehk and the master smith's son Severence Jr. ....are here to act on the behalf of the merchents guild..."He scratched the back of his neck in nervous discomfort"and...uhhh..they will be in charge of supplies...and requisitions..."Both the red skinnned Giant -Guan Yu and the Butcher Zhang Fei scowled at us maleviolently.I let out an easy smile"relax...we wont stop the flow of wine..."I said to Zhang...and slid over a full pitcher of fine rice wine to emphassise my point"nor hold your purse strings tight...were here to learn,observe and work in the best interests of the merchant guild...This war is going to drag on and they need people on the front lines who can supply them with accurate data on what will be needed in supply and demand..."This answer reassured the two fighters,but the younge man Liu Bei held just for a instant a look of annoyance that anyone would come between him and his dreams of restoring the failling Han.
Three days after-While Lui Bei was gathering together the volinteers,me and Chehk were getting the supplies together.Zhang Fei had been able to supply a large degree of horses and some food for the men ..but that still left so much more needed ...feed for the horses and basic equipment for each man.Also medical supplies and the 'distractions'that men needed to keep up moral.Both of us were worn out getting these things together that the average soldier took for granted....but we had manage to get it all threw bartering,weedling,bickering,badgering and promises.The men were well armed,the supply trains were full...and we were ready...we only had one thing left to do...before we could get under way..
As liu bei ,Zhang fei and Guan yu were leaving there tent I said in a clear yet loud voice"Hey...Ova Dwan...we will be heading out tomorrow...let say we work out the kinks first!"She turned and looked at me with a terrified expression"what are you doing?Why are you picking on me ..I thought we were freinds!"I let out a soft chuckle seeing that all three of our commanders had turned to look with a passing interest"relax...this is something we need to do before things can ever go smoothly..."And saying this I picked out two horses of good caliber"just a freindly duel...eh?'She had murder in her eyes but,after she refleckted on this she would see if we wanted to work with these men we needed there respect...to prove that thou we were the children of an inventor and a master blacksmith,we to could fight!

before I go on to pg.2 I woulld just like to say I will likely add people and there characters and likeness in this story.I will pm you or leave a comment if I can before doing so...and I would also like to include some guilds in this so I will likely ask permission there as well,and lastly---
I can not say how I will portray you character...only that like the three kingdoms it was todays ally,tomorrows enemy,yesterdays hero,now...the villian.With that in mind...on to page 2!

She started to draw her blade from its slender scabberd,I put my palm on her wrist and shook my head in denial"uh-uhh...use that..."I said and pointed with my chin to the cargo strapped to a carry mule with cloth drapped over it"but..." she began to protest.I smiled warmly "trust me..it will make the impression were looking for!"She scowled fearcely at me but reluctlantly abandoned her sword for the custom weapon on the mule.I to...did the same.As she pulled back the sheet it revealed a large man sized crossbow(what the unlearned did not know was there was atrick to it invilving the gear and winch system---there was only to ways to use it--threw skill or shearr strength..My weapon was far less impressive but no less useful.I looked like a long flat paddle with hooked barbs in it."now what the...h..ell are those?"Zhang Fei sputtered.Me and Ova Dwan had both pooled our combined knowledge to create these weapons."LETS GO!!!" i SAID AND CHARGED,SHE DODGED SWIFTLY SPINNING AROUND TO USE THE HOOK BASE ON THE BOW TO THRO OFF MT BALANCE.i SIDE STEPPED AND bent back throwing my arm out,pulling on the chain mechanism...this caused the barbs to spin inside the paddle creating a menacing VVVtttt...noise.She dipped at the waist and as our to bodies clashed ,she pulled the trigger a long bolt blasted out ....and smashed a barrell to slivers...it contents flooding out in a shower of alchohol"not the wine"Zhang Fei muttered mornfiully...with her full attention on me Check could not have room for doubts or insecurities...to fill her being.There was only her,me...and our two weapons!
Like two crazed dancers we swayed and dipped dodged and turned.Until I seen her shoulders begin to tremble...she was at the ends of her stamina...I lowered my weapon and grabbed the bend in her bow"your just to good!I just can not beat you Check!"I said with a breathless laugh and a slap on her back,and before she could drop her bow I took it and rewrapped it onto the cargo mule"lets get some rest....big day tomorrow!"

sorry for any spelling errors and being a mr.caps there for a moment...on to page 3!

We traveled for three days before we realised we were going about this the wrong way.My merchant army officer and close freind came up with the idea"were mwould he likely be?"we both smacked our palms together"IHOPAP!!!!" sure enough as we came across the closest IHOPAP there he was sitting ,a devlish grin on his face a girl on each knee and his shaggy beard full of pancake bits and berries.Oblivious to all the patrons with yellow scarves he would laugh maniacallly and stuff his face full of the rooty-tooty breakfast combo.The girls on his knees were part of the paid service...and thou they hid it with brital smiles there revoltion was obvious...
Spotting Liu bei he thundered"were have you been?how can you leave a man of my prominence in this state?"and stuffing more into his mouth he said between bites"can't you see how I am suffering, foollll???"I was never so greatfull that we had left Zhang Fei and Guan Yu outside to watch the horses.And while Liu bei used his charm to placate the massive wall of vile flesh....I paid for the meal and service,then hesitating ...reopened my purse "two for the road?"I said gesturing weakily to the women waiting on the mountanous pig"OF course"the clerk said with his own brittal smile"would you like to enrole in our IHOPAP membership plan each order 5% goes to the 'save the yellow turban fund'...?"
"NO*just the check,and the two to go..."I said Dhong Zhou's duel nature grating on the nerves he would laugh wildly and slap Liu Bei on the back,then bark wildy in outrage at his 'mistreatment' sending showers of spittle an bits of food flying.
I quickly ordered Ova Dwan back to the supply wagon to'check on the cargo'If general Zhou found out her true identity things could only go baddly for her."but why????"she thundered herself..forgetting she was supposed to be a he."because I said so,Because I want you to re-evaluate the supplies...and because I am your senior!"I murmured.She gave me a pouty face But I was adimint.Next I had a large carriage brought forth and let Liu bei help the massive pig inside.It was the pretext that it was for Dhong Zhou's comfort...but the truth was this way we did not have to DEAL with the titanic lumbering lardvark....

the year-190

supplies clerk Chehk's personel Diary
Well things went well for awhile.We sent a'gift' to the leader of the yellow turban's Zhang Ziao-
yummy Ju Ju beans laced with arsonic
He died shortly afterwords do to'illness'....but my good freind Phay predicted this would not end the conflict,only change it's scope...and he was right!Of ..all the people to seaze power?that lecherous pig Dong Zhou!He took control of the capital and with it the emporer...so we of the merchants guild did what we could..we greased the palms of many and curried favor were we could.I personallly had a meeting with both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.While Mi zhu and phay went to see Sun jian and Cao cao themselves(two fine generals and ministers who had been key in dealing with that phony preacher Zhang Ziao and his charlatains!)
Phay was able to subtlly manipupate Cao Cao into sending out a call to arms...asking all the greatlords to take part in bringing down the tyrant swine.I was less succesful...instead the two uans looked to closely at lord Sun Jians accomplishments and had expressions of bitter jelousy when I left them....
As I right on this journal I can not help but admire Phay's physic,his golden skin,dark hair and he has the cutest*but let me get back on topic,we have two new members of the merchant army.there is the dealer in high Finance goods(read:stolen items)....a mr.Bond
And our transportaton and quick funds expert a mousy little woman who is fast on her feet-Ms.Ehm
I heard a loud clattering as Mr.Bond came in....a most unpleasant man to be sure.He had A necklace of cow bells strewn around his rather hairy chest.A rather large set of teeth(one looked like a small dagger jutting from his mouth)and a nasty squint.He also had hair jutting up in streamers like the tied stalks of a rice harvest....And his disposition was no better than his appearance.With his fingers steppled together Boss (I think of him as boss-as well as mr.yummy)Severance looked at Bond and said calmy"why do you insist onclattering around those bells and for your information...007 does not mean ' I kick your AHZ" in mongolian!"
Jhunk gave his usual sneer and said back with the gratest of Beligerance"cause that little snot of my brothers cousins aunts nephew-Ning thinks there terrifying...and I love watchin that brat whizz his drawrs!And OO7 so does mean I shank yer but in mongolian!"
Phay looked at him calmly and after a pause said"it does not"
there was a outraged clatter of cowbells"I sayz it does!"
another long pause"And I say very clearly that the numbers zero zero seven do in no way equel I-' kick your ahz'..."
I sighed it was going to be one of these days,so I turned to help Aie Tey with her saddle.

190 Hu loa gate

the second push
Things have certainly not gone well.If We had been able to predict the events better and control them more effectevily ...we could have prevented Lu Bu from slaying his foster father
sigh....I new I should have had Bond 'requisition' General Dong Zhou's prized steed-Red hair.
But the merchant guild felt it was an unnecessary risk/investment.
And now instead of having the greatest warrior in the land help us tear down this accursed gate....he is its last guardian!And that simple minded Fool yuan Shu for petty reasons did not keep OUR greatest asset adequatly supplied leading to General Sun Jians crushing defeat at Shi Shui gate!Moral is still very low,And if it was not us creating these seige weapons that even now were pounding down this accursed gate...we would be even worse off.Cao Cao had been forced to strike out earlier...and had barely servived the ambush that was a result.
General Gongus Zan was following up behind us,With support from Liu Bei's volinteer army
AS I hear the gates finally ripped a sunder I finish my report...and nod to Ova Dwan,and Jhunk...the next hour ...could be our last....
And there he stands in all his maleviolent glory!H.ell in his eyes and Terror at his hands,atop the horse of a thousand leagues.With a quick strike of his halbed he ends the lives of a handful of soldies before The eye can track his movement.Check cocks her bow,bond pullls out his own custom weapon(a long pole with spiraled wind mill like blades on the end,that when the rip cord is pulled spin violently) I pull out my wooden paddle-chain shaw,and We charge forward-perhaps to our doom!
Jhunk swings his pole-Wheed Whacker back and forth in a practiced motion.At most this is just a mild distraction.Lu bu smirkes as he blows by bond with narry a thought.
He charges at me-that H-ell beast he rides Red hare a monster in its own right.with the color of crimson blood it is on us in a moment and to my disbelief it tears out the throat of my own mount!I bring up my weapon and Sparks fly as his halberd smashes down on me.
I am catapulted by the force of the blow from my own dieing mount....and The only thing that saves me from the killing blow is the two foot bolt that explodes from Ova Dwan's Giant crossbow.It smashes into Lu bu's armour knocking him off red hare...

Hu lao gate

We must move on!
we...are not going to win this,all three of us are going to die right here....
The worlds greatest warrior rises from were he landed his eyes of fury telll the tale of our fate to come"I WILL KILL ALLL OF YOU MAGGOTS!!!!"he seathes and in a blur is apon us...the battle only lasts moments...Jhunk is out cold and I can not move,the pain is to intense...I am helpless as I hear Chehks gurggled gaspings as she is being one handed strangled by the beast...His violent sneer as he watches the life slowly fadding fom Ova Dwan's eyes....
I try to get up but he casually places a boot on my throat"don't worry you pathetic worm...your next"He says,contempt dripping from his voice.
then I hear a buggle ,and I am able to turn my face enough to see half a dozen white riders stampeding down the hill"great...more vermin for the slaughter...Is there any of you dogs with an ounce of skill?"he snaps considering Gongas Zan yet another annoyance.
I fill something pulling at me and look up to see a frantic Chehk pulling at my arm,her slender throat is already bruising..."hurry ....while he is distracted..."she rasps her voice as raw as her throat looks.I nod..."help me with Bond"I manage to groan...Ova Dwan looks to argue but as she looks to see the white hosmen being quickly cut down like helpless lambs to the slaughter she realises ...now is not the time.So togehter we manage to get Jhunk up on a horse and after gathering our weapons move away from the conflict.Our purpose had not been to beat Lu Bu...only delay him.As we move on ahead another member of the merchant army flaggs us down"new order!"he declares I read them quickly,and after the third time ,re-reading them I can scaresly believe it..."this can not be true!"I stammer and hand the scroll to Chehk...she reads it and lets out a small gasp"we can not do that!"she cries horrified"we have no choice,Ova Dwan...you recognise the seals as well as I do...do go against these orders is not an option!"I then turn to the man who gave us these Vile orders"major.....Aud IYte.....isn't it?Very welll Gather the men together and set up the fire bombs....tonight ...we burn luo Yang to the ground!"
Ova Dwan had tears streaking down her pale checks"WHY?W...why are we doing this?"she sobbed out.With a grime expression I turned to her"if I was to hazerd a guess?The merchant guid here think Dong Zhou is a sheld that protects them from giving the main branch there cut....we need to correct them in the error of there judgment!And these are not orders we can disregard...as you fulll well know..."I turned to the townspeople to spread out a little coin and tell everyone our message:Dong Zhou is burning down Luo yang!
Fires began to blaze as Dong Zhou half drunk with a woman on each arm and pancakes in his beard stumbled out of IHOPAP"what is going on?"he snapped to a soldier"Lord Dong Zhou has ordered the burning of Luo yang!!!" a soldier screeched."you there stop that!"he roared to a soldier who was setting the thatching on a roof to blaze"orders from Dong Zhou...interfere and you will be arrested!"the soldier warned"fool!I AM DONG ZHOU!!!And I am telling you to stop that at once!!!"he snappped the guard made a motion and a swarm of soldiers seemed to appear from the wood work ,he thrashed about violently as they seazed him and began dragging him off,the flames rose to the heavens and the screams of those trapped in there houses could be heard"mY city...my beutiful city..."Dong Zhou gasped in horror at what was being done to his beloved capital....

190 -luo yang

the burning of luo yang
before I get started I want to thank both guids lunar fangs,and Intrepid shadow for letting me use them in my story....thanks guys,You rock my socks!

there was ashe and debree everywhere.the smell of burning wood was mixed with that wet stench you get from putting out a fire...and the smell of cooked meat...You had to keep yourself from thinking of that source..or the nausia would overtake you!Not alll of Luo yang was in ashe..only the most high profile spoots were the merchants thought they were 'safe'
And refused to see things our way.I had sent both chehk and Bond out on there respective errands and missions.Ova Dwan first was to see our oppritive here-Wang Yun and tell him to speed up the 'bitter blood'plot.She was also to right a letter to minister Cao Cao.Juhnk on the other hand was to get supplies,and some quick funds....as well as procure the imperial seal.
I let out a sigh...I would have time later to reflect on my heinous actions...Fist thing we needed to do was find an effective means to either combat or neutralize the Yuan family.At first Sun Jian seemed the logical choice.But The Yuans had already acted before we could...and instead of a hero,Sun Jian was now seen as a minor villian...Abd Mi Zhu convincing Everyone that it was Guan Yu that had defeated Hua Xiong....that did not work well in our favor as well...
So thou I had not given up completly on General Sun...i needed to focus on someone else.cao Cao seemed like the suttible canidate..a strong minister,Charismatic,And unlike those foolish Yuans could see beyound himself and the bigger picture.From a military stanpoint..he had no chance against that arrogant indecisive Shao...And Even Yuan Shu would pose a problem at the moment.So i needed to show our support to the minister of Pu Yang by leaving him secret cache boxes,and working to weaken Yuan Shao threw economic means.Shao was currently allied with gangas zan...that would not last long...of that I was sure.I felt the crunch of burnt debrees under fooot and heard the slow march of Sun Jians army as the approached.Beliegered and starving moral was weak.Thanks to Jhunk 'barrowing' money from Yuan Shao,and Foodstuff from Yuan shu....this situation would soon improve!I was outside the mercenary Guild office.To servive his trip back Sun Jian would need cappable officers to lead the devision of our merchant army I was going to send back With Sun Jian.At the highest of recommendaations I was directed to the guid group-The lunar fangs.

190 -merc guild headquarters

recruiting the Lunar Fangs
I stood with composure as I looked over the leader of the mercenary group-the lunar fangs.
A talll slender man whose eyes held a bright gleam of mirth that could switch over to menace in a heart beat.He carried himself with a cool easy confidence.His shodlier length hair was a light splash of seagreen with a sharp halo of bright silver"everyone say hi-and be respectful...this is our employer after all.."he said , a warning look to the tall dark figure beside him.The dark haired man was not as tall as there leader there was a 'boyish'quality about him that was misleading.He sparked with a dangerous violent energy."Hello...Iam Zeon,second in command...here take my hand and let my darkness fill you up until you are overflown and go mad with it..."He said with a raspy yet etheral voice.Kuja the Leader of the lunar fangs let out a short irritated sigh.The girl beside him covered over her mouth with her oversised sshirt to hide her grin and stepped forward,she whipped imaginary dust from her palm onto her pants leg,and held it out.As I shook her hand I noticed her clear blue eyes and long reddish brown hair,she had a cute cowlick and mischief in her own eyes.She stepped back and cleared her throat"Names Shimei by the by..."and turned to the short girl beside her who had long dark hair ,that shimmered blue-black in the light.She had large dark blue eyes that at the moment were concentrating with full vigor on the book in hand-oblivious to the world iin general.Shimei cleared her throat again and her cheeks getting rosy whisperd"Suky..."the short bespecticalled girls nose scrunched up in anoyance but showed no other sighns that she was contious that there was a world outside her book"SSSSssukkyyyy!!!"Shimei tried again pushing her own foot against the bespecled book worm"For **** sakes...what?"Suky snapped to the reddish brown mained Shimei.Shimei's face was scarlett as she murmured "stop embarrassing me..and introduce yourself!"She hissed under her breath.Kuja shook his head in his own private misery and Zeon snickerd evilly...with the greatest of reluctance she turned up to look up at me with all the interest of looking at a white washed fence that you had seen all your life"what?YES?"
she cocked her head to the side"well now who is this idiot?"she snapped,taking it as a great personal insult that I interuppted her reading"SUKY!"Kuja thundered his face ashen...Zeons grin was wide with glee at the scene before him,Shimei overcome with humiliation ducked behind her leader."What?just look at him...I bet he does not even KNOW how to read,how about it...are you illiterate..BOY?"Kuja was shaking with anger,Zeon was shaking with laughter,and shimei was with embarresment"thats...our employer"she whispered then ducked back behind Kuja"say what?"Suky "mumbled her eyes glazing over...she looked as if she was going into shock being seperated from her book."our boss!"Zion said helpfully ..if his grin got bigger it would start to devour the room"huh?oH!!!hi...names suky...Now leave me alone...'kay?before I haveta hurt you!"Kuja graned "i cannot take you crew anywhere"Zion let out another wild snicker that sounded like a cross between a wild hyna and deaths blade ssything your life in half,cupping his hand over his mouth before he left he whispered to me"I will eat you soul later..okay"and they were off to meet up with Sun Jian and later...our devision of the merchant army they were to command...

190-191 han river

Sun jian's march home....
before I get started I would like to warn you that this might be long-so huge wall of text?might be coming up---do not blame me for the blurry eyes!
thanks to guild lunar fang for the back stories,and thanks to Shella45..I am listening to your media while I type this for insperation...so..pg..what is it 9?
The Sun army was moving at a slow yet deliberate pace...they had been attacked all along the road home by soldiers....supposed 'bandits' but suspected to actually members of Yuan Shao's army,Liu Biao's and...even Sun Jian's ally Yuan Shu...
moral had iimproved thanks to the merchant armies assistance and the merc guild Lunarfangs!
Huang Gai was in the lead position with Cheng pu...
guild leader Kuja looked wearily at the hillside if an ambush took place that was were it would be.Shimei and Suky road on either side of a carriage transporting the Sun family children-Sun Quan and sun shang xiang.To the rear was a young cocky youth-Sun Ce,at his side was the dark cloaked figure of Zeon.
Kuja flicked back his long flowing locks of silvery sea green hair,as they cascaded down his back he thrust his arm up to the hillside pointing his deep black feathered fan to the hillside"there!"he announced in a loud clear voice...
A long row of archers apeared from where they were concealed,there positon compomised before the Sun army was in the ideal strike zone.
"our cover is blown!Archers fire!"the general Huang Zu screamed ..there was the thwick of thousands of arrows being realesed and a dark rain fell apoun the army"form up!form up!"
Huang Gai yelled in his gravelly voice.a lesser disciplined army would have fallen into panic,but this was the backbone of the coalition...they quickly formed up ranks and at a guarded position began to withdraw from the hill toward han river.
thou chaos was abound on this new battlefield they moved with determation.
Arrows filled the ground and sky like a bloody rain...With a snarl Kuja kicked his horse into a fast gallop ,while slipping a long slender glove with three long blades on the knuckle joints.
"It will not be that easy I promise you!" he challanged to Huang Zu..and lept like an exploding rocket into the air,he flung apoun the hillside with a gracefull sumersault and slashed out at the hillside archers cutting threw them like a blade threw grass.The screams echoed threw the hillside as well as the river bank.Another trap was sprung as they exited the mouth of the mountain valley.Large swarms of soldiers began pourring forth,with long pools breaking loose the earth!Boulders began tumbling down like a rolling menace."the carriage!"Shimei cried.she flung open the door and grabbed Sun shang xiang by the arm,while Suky scowling bitterly grabbed Sun Quan by the belt strap and threw him over the side of her horse,she then pulled her charger back and away from the constent rain of death.Shimei to was about to excape the hail of arrows with sun shang behind her when a bolt of pain struck her skull!The pain was almost crippling "GWWAAHHH!!!"she screamed "Shimie!"Suky cried out in alarm.What was this intense pain?This overpowering agony?She put her hand to her forhead...why could she not see out if her left eye?She felt along and grabbed a long shaft...what the?Her stomach rolled and she almost passed out.With a quick yank she felt a wave of nausia and dizzyness.a sickening pop....and her mind refused to regrister threw the pain and confusion what she was looking at on the end of the arrow head...a lesser woman would have surrendered to the pain.But she used the exquisete agony as fuel..fuel to her rage and warfury!

190-191 han river

serviving the ambush
Huang gai let out a barked order and the army formed the tortoise formation.There sheillds were not large.nor thick...but it was the best they could do...they made a strategic withdrawl.
Cheng pu had formed up the small squades of archers and they were returning fire.
Sun Jian was plowing ahead making his way toward the han river,while directing the straggles to avoid the rolling boulders.Suky had taken charge of Sun Quan while Shimei was struggling with Sun shang Xiang.Zeon was pulling up the rear While keeping an eye on Sun ce
and Kuja was atop the hillside dealing with the archer menace.....
"look out!"Sun Shang Xiang screamed shrilly,Shimei turned to see a huge boulder baring down on them,in seconds they would be crushed flat!She started to leap from her saddle ,pulling SSX under her arm.but her foot got caught in the stirup...her last desperate move was to throw the younge princess to safety before the boulder came down apon her.She managed to turn her body to the side enough to avoid such a fate.Her horse let out its dieing shreik as the boulder cruched over it.Shimei was flung to the ground by the impact.half blind she tried to rise but found she was trapped!
her blasted horse had come down on her long flowing reddish brown hair!And the arrows were porcupining the area around her....SSX had threw open a crate with a custom weapon made by the master smith Severence senior himself as a gift ...and was using it desperately to deflect the arrows reining down on Shimei!Outraged and humiliated Shimei pulled her long scimitar from its sheath with a rattling rasp,and snarling swipped it down on her own hair cutting ot and freeing herself.She then lept up and directed Sun Shang Xiang to move ahead.While this was happening Suky had pullled out a long slender tube that looked like a paper wasps nest stretched out...Guiding her horse with her kneese she was darting threw the arrow storm with a soft "haaaaaahhhhh"she gathered her warriors spirit into herself and funneled it into her weapon "CCCHHhhhhhAAAAAaaHHHHHHhhh!!!!!!"
she screamed and a kaleidoscope of colors and patterns of energy shot forth with a WHOOSH and slammed into a large portion of the archers,it vaporised soldiers by the hundreds!
Zeon was riding ahead...he was gathering his own musuo energy into himself and shooting it out in short bursts of black electric energy that would crackle in the sky and cause the arrow heads to wilt into ashe and dust.He had reached Sun Jians side,with Sun Ce beside him...together this group began cutting into the soldiers who were prying lose the boulders and chunks of earth...they were making short work of them...and the enemy infintry retreated in panic.While up top Kuja was dancing his opera of death drawing rapidly on he enemy General Huang Zu...his black swan fan razor sharp,leaving a sea of clean surgical slices threw his enemies,and using it as a sheild..expertly blocking incoming sword thrusts,then a slice of his long claw...sending the severed bodies of soldiers into the air...
