Pin Yu saw how Ren Zhi made his way to her. She had to admit that she was impressed, but the loss of Deng Mao didn't please her. An eye for an eye, aswell as an arm for an arm; this Ren Zhi had to die. "Why thank you", she spoke to him, "I didn't expect any compliments from my enemy. But, mark my word, I will send you to hell." She took another arrow and aimed towards Ren Zhi. He indeed was too much like her brother. But that couldn't stop her from killing him, right? Still, she was hesitating. Her arms didn't work. Pin Yu heard someone running towards her, but acted too late and was attacked by one of the Dong Zhuo soldiers. She managed to shoot one arrow in the attackers neck, but was soon crushed by him and fell down. The soldier looked happy and approached her. "A battlefield is not a good place for women", he said and pointed his sword towards Pin Yu's throath. Pin Yu drew her short sword and smashed the soldier's sword away from her. She got up, and killed the soldier by cutting his head off. She sighed when noticed that her arm was badly wounded, covered of blood and shaky, Pin Yu couldn't fight anymore, her arms were her best weapons. She looked at Ren Zhi. He could use this as an adventage, Pin Yu had no other choice but to reatreat. "You won", she grunted, "This time." And so, she started to make her way out of the battlefield.

"Y..You..are..A DEMON!" Cheng Yuanzhi yelled desperatly, blocking the mighty blows of his opponent while backing down. He was too strong for him and with his leg in a painfull state he wouldn't last long either. "Retreat! RETREAT!" Somehow he managed to escape the series of mad attacks and fled the battlefield together with his own panicked soldiers. The boulders where succesfully stopped by The Immortal.
Meanwhile Ren Zhi was staring at the enemy girl, his mind was working..but strangly for him, his body was not... He cursed himself several times and awaited his uncoming death until suddenly the soldiers of Dong Zhuo backed him up and pushed her back...He snapped out of his daze when he saw her dissapear into the horizon.
"He was right, a battlefield was not a good place for woman...There beuty can even tame the firecest of beast.." he said to himself before he slashed away the remainder of the turbans. "The boulders stopped! The boulders are gone!" He heard from around him and noticed that the little group had succeeded and grinnend happily. "Everyone Advance! Kill this rebel scum!" Ren Zhi rallied his troops and advanced..as far as he could.
Zhang Liang, brother of Zhang Jiao had witnessed the struggle. "We must hold them back in order to regroup with our forces, he said to his men. "Destroy the bridges and cut of their attack" A small taskforce quickly took the bridges down before the army could even advance to stop them. They couldn't move any further. "Now what?" Ren Zhi said to his men...
However there where still some big boulders, big enough to block even the mightiest of river streams...

Pin Yu was on the other side of the river and had finally found a medic. "I'm useless", she complained, "I can't even kill one pathetic human on this battlefield." "Don't worry", the medic said, "Once you rest a little the shaking will stop and you can fight again." Pin Yu nodded and leaned back. That man she had met, why didn't she kill him? Was she showing her feelings on a battlefield where there shouldn't be any of them? "There, I think it's alright now", the medic said to her, "Good luck. You almost killed that Ren Zhi." So Ren Zhi it is, Pin Yu thought and stood up carrying her bow. Maybe she could kill him now, but her arm was still wounded. Now that she had managed to reach the medic and other rebels, she could maybe have a chance. Maybe. "Yes", Pin Yu smiled to the medic, "I almost did. Next time I won't let him go like that." And before the medic could comment anything, the girl had already ran to the side of Zhang Liang. And her eyes were searching once again for another pray; anyone who would look her straight in the eyes would die. She took an arrow, and looked at her wounded arm. She could do it. "One fatal hit in the neck is all it takes", she whispered and aimed towards the Dong Zhuo forces.

Cang saw the man running away. "That's it fool! Run away!" He grinned. "Well time to go back again." He turned around and walked down again. When he looked at the Yellow Turbans he noticed they where retreating. "And so I live to see another day." Ping saw him and walked to him. "Cang you made it!" "What did you expect?" He walked to Ren Zhi who gave him the orders and saluted in front of him. "Mission accomplished sir!"

Ren Zhi looked surprised. He didn't looks so very strong..unlike his big friend. But nontheless he had made it.
"This is great to hear!" He said grabbing the soldier by his shoulder, pulling him closer to the side and presenting towards his regrouping forces.
"Thanks to this man's immortal strenght, the boulders have been stopped and the yellow turbans suffered a good crush on the morale! Know that this hero fight alongside us and do your best to match him!"
His men grew wild cheering for both warriors. "After this is over we must go share a drink!" He said grinning.
In the meantime Hu Zhen had made a path by letting the boulders fall into the river, damming it up and clearing the water away. "Alright you maggots! It is time to crush these moronic peasants!" Dong Zhuo yelled charging forward, swinging with his fearsome sword. Although he didn't look like it, he was still a fearsome warrior...

Pin Yu had gathered a few archers to back her up. "Kill them quickly before they reach us!" she yelled, "Those who fail will pay a great price; their own life!" She had managed to succesfully kill a few Dong Zhuo soldiers, but something was bothering her. Maybe her arm? No, it couldn't be that.
Pin Yu... You don't know how much I wish, that you would've died instead of your brother.
Pin Yu's arrow missed the soldier. Her father's words echoed in her mind. Everything around her stopped. The time, the noises, everything, and she was trapped into a deep silence. Her body didn't work anymore, her wound started to bleed again. Pin Yu had frozen in the middle of the battlefield.
"Pin Yu? Pin Yu?!" one of her comrades ran towards her, but was killed by a Dong Zhuo soldier. They had failed already. Why was Pin Yu on this side? Why was she fighting and for what? Against her father, who was a high ranked general, or against Ren Zhi, a man who was so much like her brother. A sharp pain interrupted her thoughts in the deep silence, and she was now back on the cruel battlefield. She fell on her knees, knowing that the enemy had striked her. Pin Yu coughed blood. "Pin Yu!" she heard shouts everywhere, the archers tried to help her. One of them reached her, and protected her from the attacks with his own body.
Who is this? Pin Yu thought.

The small and panicked force of Zhang Liang couldn't withstand the heavy attack of the soldiers of Dong Zhuo and had to retreat quickly, leaving his forces in a dissarray.
Ren Zhi was busy swooping away the remainder of yellow turbans in this area when he noticed that girl again. Although her little group was in trouble since they where surrounded she was standing straight, trembeling not a bit, or that was what he thought.
The he saw she was frightend, she was grapped by something happening in herself, asif a demon was slowly entangeling her.
"Watch out!" He yelled charging at his own allies, blocking the deathly attack with his own sword. "Leave them to me" The soldiers quickly returend to the main army, leaving Ren Zhi with Pin Yu and her few fellow rebels.
"Are you alright?" He asked her, shaking her shoulders a bit to let her wake up from her daze...

(( Heeey! Koruam! *pokes Koruam* Are you still here? O.o ))
Pin Yu felt someone shaking her from the shoulders. She blinked her eyes a few times and saw a familiar man; Ren Zhi. From close up like that, he didn't really look like her brother, only a little.
One of Pin Yu's comrades stepped forward. "Let her go!" he yelled. Pin Yu looked quickly around her and for her horror, she realised that they were completely surrounded by the Dong Zhuo forces. Her comrades were horrified aswell. "Drop your weapons", Pin Yu said, "Now." The other archer yellow turbans obeyd her and dropped heir weapons, seeing no other way but to surrender and face a death.
Pin Yu turned to look at Ren Zhi. "What do you think you're doing?" she asked, "Asking from an enemy 'are you alright'! T'sch. I usually don't resign like this, but since you have quite impressive skills, I have to admit my defeate for the second time, mister. Or should I say, general Ren Zhi." She dropped her bow, feeling how her comrades were glaring at her, for freezing in the middle of the battle.

Ren Zhi laughed a bit. "Ís it wrong for a guy to show a little sympathy?" Before she could make one of her witty remarks he contineud. "If there is one thing I hate, it is fighting women. I don't really understand why you would follow such a fool like Zhang Jiao, bringing the once peacefull land into chaos." He sighed and looked how Dong Zhuo and his men marched forward. The land never really was at peace, a tyrant like Dong Zhuo was proof of that. "I would like you to join my army!" He suddenly said out of the blue. "You will be rewared with a rank as officer and a nice sum of money. Your friends there can also join my army. What do yuo think?" He asked her.

From somewhere just outside of hearing range, Cang and Ping stood next to each other trying to listen what was being told. "What do they say?" Cang asked. "I don't know for certain but I thought I heard he was going to recruit her in the army." Ping whispered. "A girl in the army? Isn't that like blasphemy?" he answered silently "I don't know... let's hear them out..."

Pin Yu looked at Cang and Ping. "If I heard right", she said and looked at Ren Zhi once again, "A woman in an army isn't healthy. Besides, aren't we still enemies? Even though I am a female, it doesn't mean you have to go easy on me, general." Her comrades grinned behind her but went pale when Pin Yu gave them a nasty look. "Let's just say..." Pin Yu started, "That I was carried here by a certain current. I don't mind joining your army. Let me make one thing clear, although I am a girl, I. AM. NOT. WEAK." "Pin Yu!" one of her comrades shouted, "I knew it! A traitor! The rumors were true!"

Ren Zhi grinnend. "Hearing your formal allies, you are now an enemy to them. Besides, Did I say you are weak because you are a woman, haven't you heard what I said. I want you to join as an officer under me." Again Ren Zhi quickly contineud before she could say anything wity about what he meant by a woman serving "under" a man. "I am not asking you that because you are a woman, I am asking that because i think you are STRONG!"
In the meanwhile Dong Zhuo's forces, led by Hu Zhen neared the other brother of Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao. "You infidels! Now you will witness the power havean has granted us!" From out of nowhere, strange red spirits emerged, having the shape of a man. They charged at Dong Zhuo's forces wich where because of this strange mystery retreating back. "Darn it"Dong Zhuo yelled angered. "We can't get past by these ghost! Our weapons go right trough them while theirs cut trough my worthless peons! Somebdoy do something about it!"
"So what about it? let's say we forget that we tried to kill eachother and help to push this rebels bakc once and for all!" Ren Zhi reached his hand out to Pin Yu, waiting for her reply.

Pin Yu looked at Ren Zhi's hand. This could be a stepping stone, a path to her goal she had tried to reach for some years now. A chance she mustn't let go. "Deal", she said and grabbed Ren Zhi's hand, "I'm with you then." She turned around to face her comrades. "I'm sorry", she said with a voice that didn't sound sorry at all, "You could never understand." Pin Yu raised her bow and saw her comrades run towards her, trying to attack her. It was too late for them, and they were killed thanks to her sharp eyes and quick amaining.

Ren Zhi cheered. "That's the spirit! Now time to go help that Dong Zhuo!" He took his sword in battle position and charged at the strange ghost, swinging left and right, but noticing that it was all in vain. "This can't be real!" He said amazed as he felt a ghost's sword swong right next to him, cutting of a few inches of hair.
"There must be someone controlling these creatures!" Hu Zhen shouted. "Slay that man and the ghost must stop!!!" "But it is impossible to get past them! We are doomed!" One of the soldiers responded.
Would someone be brave enough to try to leap right trhough these ghosts?

"I will!" Cang shouted. "Ghosts are no more than illusions." He stepped forward. Ping tried to stop him. "Don't go, you might get cursed." "Cursed? Another illusion! I am not afraid of some fake ghosts!"
