Final Chapter: Cao Cao Against Everyone
Cao Cao had managed to lose Guan Yu minutes after the pursuit. He then sunk down by a nearby hill and laid on the ground, exhausted.
"This is a nightmare! A horrible, horrible nightmare! Yes, that's it! I'll just pinch myself and I'll be awake and back in my lavish master bedroom at my castle," he thought to himself, a bit distressed. He pinched himself and waited for something to happen.
Nothing.
He pinched himself again, only to suddenly feel a cold blade slowly rubbing across his neck. He spun around to see that Guan Yu had caught up with him.
"Tag, you're it," Guan Yu bellowed as he swung his halberd at Cao Cao.
Cao Cao dodged the attack and began running again. Scrambling up a large hill to the north, he stopped at its peak and gazed at what was on the other side of it. His eyes flew wide open as he witnessed thousands upon thousands of heavily armed soldiers charging straight toward him.
"Nooooooooo!" yelled Cao Cao, as he turned to the side and ran away from horde of soldiers and Guan Yu, who was now accompanied by Liu Bei and Zhang Fei.
As he continued to run a away from his pursuers, he was suddenly met by a landslide of oversized boulders rolling toward him. He managed to duck off to the side, where he was then almost run over by Lu Bu and his horse, The Red Hare.
Cao Cao then heard lighting crackling across the sky. He looked up and witnessed Zhang Jiao floating above him, using his wrath of heaven powers to hurl lighting bolts at him. Cao Cao turned around to the only remaining direction he could run, and tripped and fell. He sat up and screamed as several hundred pirates led by Gang Ning were closing in on him, all riding Nanman elephants. Ling Tong was with them, pulling off kung-fu moves with his nun-chucks.
Cao Cao had nowhere left to run.
"Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" he cried out, before all of the forces from every side collided with him.
Later That Night...
Liu Bei, Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, Meng Huo, Yuan Shao, and Zhang Jiao were all around a campfire eating dinner. Diao Chan played music while all the women danced. Every other officer was either having a drink, of chatting with members from the other kingdoms. Cao Cao was off to the side, tied up to a stake, looking pretty banged up and dazed. All of the remaining soldiers form the Wei forces were all locked up in a giant cage guarded by Meng Huo's elephants.
"Now that we have destroyed the Wei Kingdom, what do you want to do now?" Lu Bu asked, taking a bite of his meat kabob.
Liu Bei shrugged.
"Well, 'You Know Who' should be here any moment to tell us what's next on the agenda," Liu Bei commented.
As if on que, a familiar young man approached the campfire.
It was Cao Cao's scout, the one that gave Cao Cao that battle report earlier that day.
"Once again your plan worked out great! You sure showed Cao Cao whose boss!" Dong Zhuo commented, sipping his wine.
"Very much so. I couldn't have done it all without the help of my good friend Zhuge Liang. Tomorrow we take over Japan!" the scout said, before removing his mask.
It was Sun Jian.
The End!
That does it for this installment! Tell me what you think!
