ok so i revised the story, everything past this is all the same , with one chapter added to it, i was so exhausted when i wrote the others i didn't spell or grammar check, so hopefully this will be easier to read now, also if someone could tell me how to delete things Ive already posted that would be nice, everything after the first post on the second page is new.

and i guess he is kinda a side kick, hes a guide to mount Qi that sima ye sent with kuja to lead the way.
ill just redo chapters to keep it all current my last post on here will be brand new.

so is shunli like a sidekick?

???:“kuja… “
???:“kuja wake up….”
Kuja:“unghh …. What’s this, I’m alive?”
?”for now yes, but your dying slowly…”
Kuja:”then why did you wake me up fool?.. couldn’t you let me die in peace?”
???: “because,,, you don’t have to die,, I could save you…”
Kuja:”who are you?...”
???:” you will know in good time,, but if we don’t move fast, your corpse will rot where you sit, and though you may be good fertilizer for the lifa tree, I have better use for you”
Kuja: “what do you mean?”
???:”we don’t have time for this,, do you want to live, or not?”
Kuja:”well it certainly beats being stuck under these useless excuses for shrubbery…”
Silence……
Kuja: “well are you going to save me or not”
???:” you should watch your insolent tone boy…I don’t have to pull you out,, “
kuja:”where are y……”
kuja finds himself standing in darkness.
Kuja:” well I can certainly breathe better... but I must say the scenery was much better before.”
???:” so would you prefer I send you back?”
Kuja: “no,, now that you mention it, there is something quite ambient about this vast darkness.. perhaps I could get used to it..”
???:”well don’t get used to it.. You won’t be here much longer...”
kuja:”well lucky me,, “
? “Now that I saved you, it’s time we get down to business. I’ve seen what you did to terra, very nice you’ve accomplished more than any of your counter parts.”
Kuja:”so what you want me to destroy another planet?”
???:”sort of .. I also saw what you accomplished on Gaia; your military prowess is extraordinary. Even though you failed, let’s just say I’m giving you a second chance for success.”
Kuja:”what is it you want me to do then?”
A small light shown in the vastness of the darkness, yet it seemed to get bigger. Kuja watched as it quickly engulfed him shielding his eyes from the intensity. When he opened his eyes again he found himself in a small ally.
Kuja:”what am I doing here?”
?” I want you to seek out my associate Sima Ye, he has need of your abilities.”
kuja:”well where can I find him?”
silence…
kuja:”hello!?”
silence…
kuja:”oh great where did you go now…?”
kuja felt a small tugging on his robe.
Child: “who are you looking for?... are you playing hide and seek?”
Kuja: “hide and what?”
Child: “ you know,,, hide and seek!”
Kuja: “ I am seeking someone ,, maybe you could help me find him…”
The child beamed a large smile grew across his face.
Child: “ok! What’s he look like?”
Kuja: “well I don’t know what he looks like, but his name is Sima Ye..maybe you know him”
The Childs face rapidly changed to a state of grim terror.
Child: “wh….. Why is he playing hide and seek… he’s scary...”
Kuja grew impatient.
Kuja: “look child .. do you know where he is or not!?”
The child eyes soon began to water…. He backed away slowly then ran away crying.
Kuja sighed heavily he walked out of the ally and looked around.
Kuja: “well… I can see this will be an easy task…”
He looked around
There were buildings all around him mostly markets and houses. He saw some soldiers walk into a building; he decided to follow them in.
As soon as he walked into the bar he was knocked down by a large man, not in height, but in girth.
Xu zhu: you made me drop my lamb!
The large man looked furious. Then shrugged and picked the lamb off the floor and resumed eating it.
A man sitting a table close to the large man scoffed and rubbed his hand up and down his face in a stressful motion, when he removed it he slid his eye patch back down over his face.
Xiahou Dun:” that’s disgusting zhu”
Another, obviously drunk, large man sitting at the table with them slapped the other mans back laughing”
Xiahou Yuan:” coming from the man who ate his own eye, hahahahahah! Don’t worry about him zhu don’t even bother there’s no challenge coming from a man wearing women’s clothing”
The man continued laughing until he fell out of his chair, stopped for a moment then continued laughing some more.
Kuja picked himself up furious, yet in a calm motion, brushed off his clothing looked at the fat man and launched a ball of energy right into his gut knocking him into the far wall behind him, then fell onto a table and smashed it flat.
The sober mans eye widened, the drunken man sat up quickly and drew his sword
Xiahou Yuan: “you’re going to pay for that you insolen,..”
The man with the eye patch grabbed the drunk mans collar and pulled him back
Xiahou dun: “ you fool that’s obviously one of sima ye’s apprentices ..”
Kuja thought to himself: “well what a lucky break perhaps they know where I’m suppose to find this man.”
Kuja: yes, I am, and I’m looking for him, perhaps you could tell me where I could find him.”
Xiahou Dun:”well he should be in his tent with the other apprentices, you must be new,, and I’ll take you to him.”
The drunken man scoffed and went to the back to pick his large friend up, the sober man got up and waved kuja to follow him.

Kuja followed the man outside they began walking north toward a large building
Xiahou dun: I’ve never seen a new apprentice with skills like yours,, in fact I’m sure your magic could match sima ye, however, you didn’t hear that from me, surprised they didn’t have troops at the front to meet you.
Kuja kept stride keeping quite as to not arouse suspicion; they walked up a large group of stairs... Two soldiers saluted them and opened the door they walked inside the building and down a hall in front of a door with two more guards stationed.
Xiahou dun: they’re planning strategy for an upcoming battle with some rebel elitist. Just stay put here, they should be done momentarily.
The sober man bowed slightly and walked away probably returning to the bar to keep his friends from causing anymore trouble.
Kuja waited for what must have been 2 hours before the large doors opened, two tall robed men walked out of the door,
Robed man: hahahaha those rebels won’t know what hit em!
The other man laughed as well, two well dressed men exited the room in silence. soon after an extravagantly dressed man walked out of the room closing the door, then turning to look at kuja
Zhang he: oh my! You must tell me where you got those clothes!
kuja looked a little surprised at first, and then grinned.
Kuja: well it certainly is nice to know there are people in this world with some sense of fashion
Zhang he: I simply LOVE how you accessorize! And your hair, oh my!
Kuja: you must tell me where you got those jewels!
Kuja and zhang he complimented each other for what seemed like ages.
???: kuja! You don’t have time for this !
Kuja : have time for what !?
Zhang he: time?,,, time? … oh my! The time! Your right I must be going.
Kuja: wait!... you wouldn’t happen to know a sima ye would you?
Zhang he: unfortunately … that big bag of…
A robbed man walked up behind zhang he
Sima Ye: hmmm ,, a big bag of what?
Zhang he turned pale
Zhang he: big bag of beauty and strategy!
Sima Ye: I thought so
Sima ye looked at kuja then nodded his head in recognition
Sima ye: I’ve been waiting for you kuja. Come with me.
Kuja began following sima ye down the long hallway
Sima ye: I’m glad you’re making friends, but we have more important things to deal with.
They further they went down the hallway the darker it got, kuja had to listen to sima ye’s footsteps to keep pace. Eventually the footsteps stopped and a blue light ignited from nowhere and dropped to the floor tracing a square pattern then climbing the walls to light two torches. Kuja looked down to see there was a staircase heading down
Sima ye: watch your step.
The two walked down the stairs following the blue flame as it traced the walls lighting torches in front of them as the torches behind them were extinguished. kuja looked back in time to see that not only had the opening in the floor had disappeared , but the stairs as well. He began to wonder if the floor they walked on was even real. Soon sima ye stopped and the flames traced up the wall creating a door like pattern, the then flames began tracing the door with all sorts of patterns then began to open.
Sima ye: I know it’s beautiful, but unless you wish to fall to your death you had better come in quickly.
The two walked into the room, kuja levitated just slightly off the ground till he could visibly see a wooden floor appear before him. when his feet landed on the floor an entire room shown before him. As he walked forward he noticed a lavish blue carpet, stone walls with blue torches, books adorned the walls everywhere. Men in blue robes stood guard and patrolled the hallways, some others studied from the books , as they walked down the hall way kuja peered in the rooms , more men in blue robes were chanting spells, and others were mixing potions. They walked up a stone staircase an entered a large room guarded by two robbed me wearing golden hats.
Kuja grinned.
Kuja: reminds me a little bit of home.
Sima ye smiled a little, then motioned to a chair.
Sima ye: please, have a seat.

Kuja sat in one of the chairs surrounding a round table,7 other chairs were placed around it. All empty sima ye moved to the other side of the table, a blue light glowed in the direction sima ye faced, Kuja figured he was activating another contraption, Ye quickly turned around launching the blue ball of energy towards Kuja’s chest, Kuja shot up from his chair and launched a larger ball of energy blasting Ye’s ball right back to him, Ye quickly took the fan from his waist and sliced the two energy balls in half, shooting back and blasting the wall behind him.
Sima ye smirked.
Sima ye: “relax, I just had to make sure you were the real deal.”
Kuja: “I responded when you said my name, didn’t I, fool?”
Sima Ye “yes, but you can never be certain what you’re dealing with when working for our employer.”
Kuja: “and just who is our employer?”
Sima Ye: you will find out all in good time.
Kuja scoffed impatiently,
Sima ye: you are to help me create an army of mages just like you did unto queen brahn.
Kuja: who informed you of my work with that lethargic woman?
Sima ye: our employer kept me well informed on your accomplishments.
Sima ye turned around again, Kuja was ready to deflect another ball of energy.
Sima ye: don’t worry; I don’t have to test you twice.
Sima ye turned back around with a pot of tea, and two cups, he poured one for Kuja and himself,
Kuja nodded and sat down, taking a cup and drinking it slowly. Yet only after je watched Ye do the same.
Sima ye: we have gathered all the ingredients to make the black mages but one, our employer tells me that the ingredient can be found inside mount Qi. Tomorrow you and another whom I have assigned as your apprentice will go to mount Qi and retrieve for me some of that ingredient for experiments. Until then I suggest you sleep and prepare for your trip
The door opened up behind Kuja. Kuja turned and looked, and when he turned back to sima you, he was gone. Kuja got up and walked out of the room a young man was standing outside the door waiting for him, he was slightly taller than Kuja, blonde hair and brown eyes with an innocent face and a smirk like smile. Hi I’m Shunli Shuo and ill be your guide to Qi Mountain tomorrow.
Shunli bowed towards Kuja.
Kuja: how,,, exciting…
Shunli’s smile turned south.
Shunli: well our room is this way.
Kuja: oh great,, were sharing rooms.
Shunli: I know I haven’t had a roommate since… well that’s in the past,, any who. It will be great having someone to talk to at night, and don’t worry I’ve been forbidden to practice magic inside the building anymore.
Kuja sighed heavily
They walked down the hall way and turned the corner, 3 rooms down to the right was their room.
Shunli: well, here we are. Home sweet home…ish
Kuja walked into the room and lie down on the bead
Shunli: so where you from?
Kuja: far away..
Shunli: oh yeah like how far?
Kuja: far…
Shunli: oh… I lived in a village not far from mount Qi. That’s probably why the master sent me with you, but it beats sitting around cleaning things.
Kuja: great,, you’re a maid…..
Shunli: aren’t maids usually women?
Kuja was silent.
Shunli: well if you don’t mind, I’d like to visit my home, it’s been a long time since I saw my mom and brother.
Kuja: we’ll see.
Shunli: do you think,,, you could teach me magic?.. The master won’t let me learn anymore,, he says I’m,,, I’m an embarrassment to his institution.
Kuja: oh really?
Shunli: yeah I know right!? You’d figure a few explosions and library fires would be expected,, but no,, I think someone here is out to get me..
Kuja: it will be me if you don’t let me sleep….
Shunli: huh?
Exhausted Kuja drifted to sleep,
Shunli: I’m just saying they should have kept teaching me, I mean I’m great full they didn’t kill me like I’ve seen them do recently but…
Shunli kept talking for a while then drifted to sleep.
Shunli: wake up! It’s time to head out
Kuja launched an energy ball at Shunli knocking him back onto his bed.
Kuja:oh my,, would you look at that…
Kuja got up and looked around, on the table there was a meal set out… half eaten
Shunli got up of his bed rubbing his chest.
Shunli: sorry, I got hungry.
Kuja: wonderful.
Kuja ate what was left of the meal and headed out of the room, Shunli grabbed his bags and followed him out the door.
Shunli: wait up!.. I’m supposed to be leading you!
Kuja slowed down
Kuja: how are we supposed to get out of here anyways?
Shunli: well there’s an area over here to our right,
They walked to the right and into a large room.
Shunli: if we stand in this circle it will take us right outside the city gates.
Kuja walked into the circle and vanished.
Shunli: hey wait up!!
Shunli walked into the circle…
Shunli: oh great,, it broke,,,
Shunli sat down and put his hands on his head. The portal glowed blue again and teleported him outside.
Kuja waited impatiently for the straggler to show up, in the blink of an eye Shunli appeared in mid air and fell to the ground landing on his rear end. Kuja covered his face with his hand and slid it down.
Shunli: stupid circle….
Kuja : are you sure it’s the circle?
Shunli: ..What?
Kuja turned around
Kuja: so where this mountain at?
Shunli: it should be…..
Shunli looked around in every direction for a while muttering to himself…
Shunli: ok so if that’s there then this is,,,, no that’s not right…
Kuja sighed heavily.
Shunli well the sun raises in the east so,,,,
Shunli: or was it west…..
Kuja: didn’t you bring a map?
Shunli: oh yeah!
Shunli took out his map
Shunli: it looks like we go this way,,,
Shunli headed north towards a large forest. Kuja followed, half expecting to have to turn around after walking a few miles.
