Sing Shu jumped at the voice coming from inside the tent,"Once we're done with the crowd charging towards us, sure! Just wait!" Shu shouted at the tent. Getting back into stance, she gripped her spear tight and sent the first two rows of men into the air, spinning fast. She then shot them up in the air, and they landed on top of an empty tent, not moving. This is exciting, she thought to herself, whenever she practiced with her master, she had to control herself and use very little of her strength, and here, she wasn't controlling herself, she was using full force and liked it.

Sou blinked, watching the scene unfold. He was eager at first, handling his club with the fierceness he held in his youth. Then he started to gently stroke it. Finally he rested upon it, letting it fall to the ground. "Maybe magic makes my life too easy." He heard the shouting from the tent. "I think I can handle this one."
Entering the tent, he eyed up the girl, "Hey there. How long have you been in this mess?" He picked her up and slung her over a shoulder, quickly leaving the burning building. "Are we familiar?"

"My weapons!" she couldn't help but cry out. "Put me down if you want to speak to me. I've been thrown around by brutes for two weeks solid and I won't stand for it any longer!" She squirmed an wriggled until she got loose from him and fell on her rear, luckily with her hands in front of her.
"I am Yue, heiress of the Grand Jin Lain," She admitted. "Can you cut me loose so I can get my things?" She didn't feel right without her knives and garrotte, her clothing felt too loose (ridiculous as that was with how tight they were) and she felt slightly vulnerable.

Nu Sou quirked an eye and knelt down, "Feisty. Well, I suppose I can try untying you, but I'm not going into a burning tent for a couple knifes and a piece of string. Now turn around and put your hands on the ground. Spread them as wide as possible." He brought up his club, closed one eye, and readied his weapon. His tongue licked his lips and he bit his lower lip, "Come on Sou, it might be a clumsy weapon but you can do it." Then he put his club away, "Yeah, sorry new kid, I don't think it's wise of me to try to cut those ropes. And what are you the heir to?" He sat on her stomach, paying little attention to the battle around them.

"The Jin Lian clan," Yue coughed out, not catching that he knew what sort of wepons she used. What a heavy b*****d he was! "We're healers, and I swear to the gods I'm ripping every hair out of Jen's head the next time I see her." The last part was more of a mutter than anything else, but Jen had always been troublesome for the heiress. That was why Grandmother had sent her away. "Really, if you could just let me get away in the chaos, I'd be forever grateful. I need to get to the Nu Clan."

Sing Shu continued on with attacking the men that were charging towards her and Fa. She was very unaware of what was going on between the girl that was in the tent and Nu Sou.

"The Nu clan?" He pondered for a few minutes, "Well you're suppose to look for me then. I'm Nu Sou. And you make a very poor chair. Too skinny." He stood up, lifted the girl, ripped the ropes loose, and set her down. "I'd wait for the tent to stop burning, but then I'd get your daggers."

The gods must really enjoy messing with her she thought as she dusted of the volumes of silk she wore. her once pink, white, and gold robe was now a very unattractive color of brown and slightly browner brown.
"My deepest apologies that I wasn't built specifically to be a seat. I'd normally offer to help out in this situation," she informed her rescuer. "But I find without a knife I'm rather useless, unless of course you'd be willingly to loan me one."
Was she really to skinny? She'd always been a bit slender, but she couldn't be skinny could she? Men back home had always said she was shapely and perfect. Oh why did she even care about what some old man thought? Had he been younger she'd have cared immensely. Didn't her cousin say something about a son?

He brought his club out, and close lined a man, causing him to fall to the ground unconscious. "No, I don't use blades. My tribe isn't very known for their forges, and I find bronze to be such a weak metal. It's only in my club because otherwise I felt as if I'd just be some barbarian." He swung it down on another attacker, the blow killing him. "So are you a suggested candidate to my entourage?"

"I have no idea," Yue said as she dodged the falling warrior. "I was summoned by you after my big mouthed cousin...after Jen was so...kind as to talk about me." She moved out of the way of another warrior, not having time for any of them. "I honestly thought I was being summoned for a healing."

He slugged a few more of the rebels effortlessly, "For healing? I'm not a very good healer. My concubines and wives do claim I have magic fingers, though." He thrust the club into a man's gut, then brought it up to his face. "But you're more then welcome in my courts." He eyed her up, "You'll definitely do well enough."

Yue's eye twitched as she dodged a few more of the barbarians who'd taken her hostage, finally remembering her hair pins and stabbing one in the back of the neck. He fell down like a lifeless doll. Were all male dominated clans so ridiculous? More than likely. And magic fingers? How lewd! and he was so old! Though she couldn't help but ask. "Well enough for what?"

"We have healers. You'll make a great concubine. That's why you were sent, right? My son was looking for his first wife, after all." Seeing the flames die down, and the rush of angry men slowing, he sat on the ground, stretching. "Are you to be his suitor?"

"Excuse me?" Yue's voice was dead and emotionless for all of two seconds. after that it was filled with smoke and fury. "A concubine? What in the world do you think we sent Jen for? And what's this about a son?" flinging another pin out of her hair and into the throat of a nearby idiot, she continued her rant. Of course, that only made more of her hair fall loose. "I already told you who I was! I can't be something so silly as a concubine, I have a villiage to lead." Was his son cute? Or like, ten and useless?

"Hey, don't get your loin cloth all bunched up. We could use you. I think this is pretty clear. Let's move out to the Sing. We can get this alliance finished, and the Yi will be here soon to stand guard. What's your name again?"
