 Fighter Solo Battle 1: Results: DRAW(Continue of Rumors Plot) (Huang-Fu vs. Kadaj [Chi's Noble Captain lover])
Huang lay in wait as the nobles started their small trickle into the outlying buildings of the Lee Estate. Look at them, Huang thought, look at how easy going their faces are as they think that we just let them wander in our camp. Huang's stoic face almost gave a disappointed expression as he thought of his mother. Did she think that he was a fool? Did she think so little of his skills that he would just allow her to walk in and massacre the whole family?
It would be laughable if he wasn't lying in the wait. He sent silent hand signals, once the only way to communicate to anyone now proved to be the most useful way to direct attacks. In the past, he would've never talked as much as he did now. It took meeting his friends and loved ones to break him from that shell. It took outside forces to break the barrier he was about to now. His body shook, not in fear but now, in the same blood lust he felt when he battled an enemy that excited him. The last time he had felt this, this feeling was with the brawl in the streets with Li. It thrilled him, excited him. The signals we're beginning to pass through his setup of soldiers as he watched as the nobles fall into trap after trap.
"So the little warriors you raised are ready for us Chi." Huang watched in silence as Kadaj made his appearance, and there on his arm was his mother Chi. She touched her fingers to her lips in pursued anger, a facial expression he remember clearly whenever she was angry. Her voice was cold and stiff as ever when she spoke. "It seems so Noble Kadaj. Little Children though should know when not to disobey there parents though. It matters not, I know the layout and every solider in this place My love." She gave a small pat as she disengaged herself from his arm and moved away from Kadaj, she disappeared in the swarm of soldiers as she began her descent.
"Haha, Noble Lady Chi. Your cold logic and familiar battle lust for death. Is she not beautiful? The newest queen in the Noble's army, you will be more then our greatest Ally." Kadaj was a sight himself, Huang gritted his teeth at the bigger man with a large wooden spear to match, a Captain with just as cold of a demeanor as his mother, his voice didn't laugh when he spoke of her. No it echoed with wails of death and ice together, it stung inside of Huang. But it ignited him as well. The fire of survival and the fight for life.
He sent the final signals to his team before dropping down from his position and moving. Already he could hear the clashes of battle beginning. He heard the cries of warrior after warrior as the clang of weapons echoed through the walls of the Lee estate. He passed through the gardens where Noble soldiers found themselves deep in the pits of dug holes. One minor tactical movement but it slowed the enemies without actually killing them. Huang was an assassin but needless blood shed of the Nobles, He didn't want it on his counsice. Looking down he saw the immense amount that looked up at him with hated eyes. Waving at them and earning cursed replies, he moved on.
The next group he met with next was engaged enemies. He battled his way through. "Take them outside soldiers!" Huang directed them outside so there was minimal damage to the interior of the gardens before engaging more nobles himself. "Move them outside to the traps! Less casulites!" Huang cringed as his needles fatally injured a noble. He was close, getting so much closer to the familiar smell of his mother and that of Kadaj. They were getting close to Xiao's estate, Even Huang could tell their moves.
He used the shadows as cover as he slipped past the rooms. "He's not here!" His mother's voice cried out in anger as she destroyed Xiao's well placed room, pulling clothes, furniture and anything in her way in a massive destruction. Gone was the ice queen facade. Kadaj even looked a little intimidated by her assertive personality as he stood in the middle of the room and watched her tear through. "He's not here, My precious oldest son! Where has he gone, where has my son gone too!?" She cried out as she came to Kadaj and clinged to him. His mother had come to insanity, Huang could only think that was wrong with her. "Worry not love, he must be around here somewhere!"Kadaj voice was still icily cold as he tipped the older womans face up and laid a rough kiss on it. Huang almost wanted to gag at the public display of affection. Slipping himself from the shadows, He sneered at the man and woman in front of him.
"And here lies the traitorous queen and her stupid Captain follower." Huang watched as they turned to him in surprise, "Don't look so surprised mother, you knew I was somewhere along a while back. It was only a matter of time before I found you, even you are so predictable." Huang crossed his arms as Chi stared at him, disgust and anger clearly on her face as she looked at him. It didn't phase Huang though, it was nothing new in the way she looked at him.
"A lowly creature like yourself, how dare you show your presence in your lord and master!" She snapped at him, "Where is Xiao, Where is my son?" She reached out to take Huang by the collar, "Tell me where my son is you worthless piece of trash, Tell me where my only son is." She snapped again, getting up in his face. His face remained the stoic expression though as it always had been before his hands lightening quick stabbed three needles into her shoulder.
"Don't touch me Noble Mother, the new whore of the Noble army." He got his needles ready as she stumbled back, pure shock showed on her face now. Her shoulder bled from the needles he had pierced her with as she screamed. "Xiao is safe from you, as will this family be safe from you Mother. Tonight you die at the hands you so plotted to kill." He moved to end her when Kadaj struck him away with the large weapon he carried around. The blow hit his stomach and sent him flying back with the force as he hit one of the walls of Xiao's room. Blood spurt from his mouth from the shock of the attack to his system as he slinked to the ground, landing on leg. His maroon eyes looked up to meet that of the Captains who had struck the blow.
"Don't touch her insolent swine." Kadaj prepared himself for another attack, "Lady Chi, Leave this child to me and find your loved son so we may burn this place to the ground and be on our way." Kadaj smiled at Huang, the crazed battle lust in his eyes met with Huang's ferocity. "Go!" he shouted again as Chi stumbled back and out. She looked once more at Huang with her returning cold stare before speaking on last time. "Kill him Kadaj, though he is of my blood, he was never more then a tool in my scheme's. A tool is nothing more then a tool after all, and he has ended his use." She disappeared into the corridors as Kadaj laughed.
"See your mother? No remorse to killing her children, no heart and no soul. Ah she is the woman I would live by, the woman who has wormed her way into the Nobles rank as the Blood lust Queen!" He smiled again as he swung the large wooden spear at Huang. Ducking and rolling out of the path of the destructive blows, He dodged and sent his needles flying. The man's weapon was nothing more then a long distance hitting weapon, if Huang could close in for a close combat he would be the victor. "Come to me blood of Chi, Show me just how much of her blood you share!" Kadaj lashed out.
Each blow was costing Huang though, Time and strength was starting to dwindle as he couldn't stop the man's blood lust. His needles stuck out from the man's armor but there was none that had made it through. He gritted his teeth in anger as he pulled out his short Katana sword and moved fast. Each swing had a short opening as he had to draw his weapon up for another swing. Huang had a moment, just one moment as he moved in and cut the man's arm. Kadaj howled in pain as he punched Huang away with his free hand, blood dampened each other. The weapon dropped to the ground as he covered his dangling arm, using a magic seal to keep it attached.
"b*****d!" Kadaj looked at the injury and then back at Huang before gritting his teeth, "Severing my tendons in my arm so that I won't be able to attack was decisive and sneaky. You are more like your mother then you think." Kadaj fainted in the middle of the speech he was beginning, blood pooled around him though not by much as the magic seal did its job, returning the cut arm back together.
Good, Huang coughed as he held a hand to his mouth, when he pulled it back, blood stained it. This wasn't a win for him though as he suffered internal damage. But it could keep him moving, he could live through this injury and continue on. With one of the enemies down, it was time to find the cause of this all. Chi Lee, It was time to meet your end. Huang moved away from Kadaj, leaving the unconscious body as he followed his mother's scent. The battle had been quick and yet long enough for his mother to escape. He'd have to be faster and smarter then her to catch her.

 Fighter Solo Battle 2: Results: Huang's Win(Continue of Rumors Plot, With permission from Kuro, I don't have to roll for this battle so Huang can win.) (Huang-Fu vs. Chi Lee)
His sight was getting blurry as he rushed from the room where Kadaj now laid. Though he had gotten away alive from the man, his body was suffering from three broken ribs. Huang felt along his stomach and winced, no make that four broken ribs. He stopped to remove his armor and shirt and winced at the bruising that was already beginning to show. He pulled out the wraps he prepared for injuries and quickly begin to bandage his ribs tight. Once the bandages supported the broken ribs, he wrapped smaller cuts and put the shirt and armor back on. He steeled himself for the next fight as he followed his mother's scent. It took much longer then he thought to find her though as he scent spread across the estate. Stupid of him not to think of that now.
"Huang!" Xia, his sister found him and looked him over. She gritted her teeth at her brother as she noticed already the injuries he had taken. "You fought Kadaj so soon in the plan." She looked over him before looking around, "Mother's nearby, you might not feel it but she's near. She..." Xia looked around before pushing Huang to the shadows with enough force to bother his wounds. His body convulsed as he coughed blood up and looked up at her. Just what was she planning?
"Xia what are you..." Huang quieted as the familiar smell of his mother came closer and Xia moved her body to cover Huang's. It was part of their plan after all, Huang would take care of Kadaj first. If he lost, He would recover time by letting Xia confront their mother until he could return. If he won though, Xia and him would meet Chi together, both of them trained each others styles for each other in the past week just to tag team Chi. But with his condition the way it was, He would have to be careful in their tag team battle.
"I'll hold her till you recover more." Xia said as Chi made herself present. She looked crazed, a woman on the brink of her madness as she noticed Xia.
"Ha, Another of my worthless children come to stop me? Don't you see it's begun?" She held her hands out as she looked around her. Xia watched her carefully as She turned her head from side to side. "Where is the fire? Where is Kadaj? Where is my son?" She looked insane and it had Xia preparing her Katana for an attack. "What have you done to my plan you worthless children? What have you done to my perfect plan! Worthless children are to die, you are to die." She pulled out the her twin swords, something Huang and Xia had adapted to their style of fighting as well though Huang and Xia used a shorter model. Xia breathed out before meeting their mother in a fierce speed battle. Swords sparked and clang together as Xia matched their mothers insane speed. Huang was deeply impressed after all, his mother was a fierce warrior indeed. He would expect nothing less to the former leader of assassin's and the ones the Nobles called the Blood lust queen. For when she battled her face distorted with a powerful rage and look for blood. Xia was doing her best but without her and Huang together, she was falling to her mother's onslaught of attacks.
"Its our turn." Huang pushed himself from the shadows, his katana unsheathed in his hands as he joined the battle.
"Oh, So you survived worthless child." She met his stroke with one of her swords and kept Xia at bay with the other, forcing them attack and move back for the other too. Two assassin's against the queen of assassin's. "What of Kadaj, What of my lover?" She struck a powerful blow that sent Xia retreating back in a back flip, Huang barely dodging as it cut along his chest, the same place almost that Bataar did.
"He's alive but under custody of the Legion army." Huang noticed that the three needles that he had pierced her were pulled out and blood was only slowly spreading on her clothing from the past attack. Did his mother have sealing magic like Kadaj to slow down bleeding? It didn't matter though, her attacks we're getting slower and slower the more time went on. Whether or not she knew it, Chi was weak from old age and the injury that Huang inflicted. She couldn't keep up with Xia and Huang together in their onslaught of their attacks. His ribs ached.
Xia just took an almost fatal blow as the sword sliced across her leg. It was deep and yet, she continued her attacks with her Katana. When she gave him the signal, he pulled out the poison tipped needles and let the fly. They buried themselves deep in her chest. Xia sighed in relief as the poison started to slowly spread. Her sword arm reached out as she cut clean through Chi's arm, the limb dropped to the ground as did one of her swords.
"Give it up Chi." Huang watched as she fell to the ground, "The needles I attacked you with are poisoned slowly spreading through your body. Xia just cut off your arm. Your going to die, at the hands of those worthless children." His eyes glinted as the moonlight shone over them. Chi laid in the pool of her own blood, her eyes already said dead to them both.
"Worthless children should never disobey their parents. You should've both died tonight. Only Xiao should've gone with me. My precious older son, he would've been all mine alone." She lunged one last time, Xia blocked the sword attacked aimed at Huang's neck as Huang moved up and over his sister, his short katana sword sliced clean through the skin of her neck through to the back side. He moved Xia back as Chi's severed head rolled away from her body. To Huang and Xia though, the death was nothing they hadn't seen before and yet both of them scarred by the event looked at the severed head like it was a foreign object.
"We..." Xia breathed in the smell of death and blood before covering her mouth as she looked into the dead eyes of her mother's head, "We killed her. Actually killed her." Xia turned her back before resting her hand on the wall, breathing heavily. Huang pitied her in that moment as he took looked down at the head.
Was it sad that he felt nothing at her death regardless? He sent a prayer to the goddess for her placement of his wicked mother and then went to Xia. "Move the troops to shove the rest of the nobles out, we have killed one of the commanders and have the other in our locked care." Huang pushed her along before wiping the blood of himself, "We have no time to waste. Clean up starts now." Xia looked at her brother and cringed, His eyes had taken the deadpan look he had when he was a kid before sighing. "Alright, I'll clean up what I can brother." She patted him on the back before disappearing. Leaving Huang with the dead mother of the two. He looked once at her before grabbing a nearby torch lantern and gathered her body together, pouring the lanterns oil over her and watched it catch a blaze.
It was the end.
It was the beginning now.
---
It had been a week since the tribulation that Huang's family endured. It had been a bumpy clean up as he had to show some responsibility for the loss of such political figureheads in the Legions army. Not only that but, after the clean up itself, Haung had been appointed the leader of the Lee's Legions instead. Xiao was now living a much more simple peaceful live with his Fiancee and soon to be wife in a small home closer to a more peaceful forestry.
Shaoran had disappeared, free to live his womanizing and gambling days as he traveled the land. Huang knew though that his brother was safe and happy after all. Xia had remained in the Lee's estate after the clean up and was now Huang's right hand woman. She was the one he turned to for information. Though they had gotten along with the battle for their home, it was only a step in recovering the lost sibling connection. He didn't feel anything like he did for Sara when he was with Xia, but he wouldn't deny her help.
He was drained, his ribs still broken from the battle with Kadaj who unfortunately had been returned to the Nobles army. Prisoners of war were not the way of Legions and unless they wanted a massive attack again on the Legion, they had to return him. It had been painful but Huang knew it wouldn't be the end of his battle with Kadaj, one day, he would see the man again.
Being the leader though, Huang had been overwhelmed with duties and political games. It was draining him. It was time...Time to get away. and so he went to Cherry tree hill and he stayed there. He would contemplate his fate there for awhile.

 Solo Battle 3: Rematched battle with Kadaj Winner - Draw Loser - Draw
It had been a month since Huang had been forced to defend his home from one of its on inhabitants, the fact that he had done so, still haunted him to this day. His own mother, the one that had given birth and raised him had been beheaded by his sword. He looked at the Katana that had once been dyed red with her blood. It was clean now, reflecting himself as he looked at it. His hands were laced together, his head resting on them as he contemplated his next moves.
The nobles had bargained for Kadaj's release after the battle, and though the captain had returned to his rank, he had never lived down letting his newly found love and the loss that Huang caused him down. He had become violent and outraged at the injustice. Acting out against his superiors, it was only a matter of time till he would come again for another attack, one, Huang was sure, would be a personal attack on him.
He shuffled reports after reports together, pouring over details of Kadaj's movements since the attack on the home. It was the same after same fact. Kadaj wanted revenge. He wanted revenge against Huang, nothing new. Moving his head away from his hands, he rubbed his tired eyes just as his sister and right hand man came in.
"Hello Lord Brother." Xia bowed to him before gracing him with a smile. Since their bonding, Xia had opened up to Huang to be a kind, still lethal, but kinder woman. She, herself, felt that after their mother's death was free from the burden. She told Huang that she would remain at his side for now, but now that she wasn't forced into the position that she was, she would soon look for a husband and retire to live a more modest life. Huang thought that was admirably of her, especially with the hard life she had lived. In truth, he only wanted what was best for his family. With Xiao happily married to Shu, and from what Huang heard, expecting their first little ones, Huang wanted nothing more then for his two other siblings to do the same. Shaoran really he didn't care about, as he sighed over the one report her heard of his playboy brother.
"Hello Lady sister." Huang returned the greeting to her before motioning her to come closer, though he felt nothing for Xia like he did Sara, it didn't diminish the love he felt now. He would always consider Sara to be his sister, there was no changing that. But he would always have Xia for a real sister as well. "What brings you to the Room?" Huang motioned to the room where, he and Xia both ritually came to. Though it was his shift right now, it made curious why his sister was here. "Did something happen amidst your missions?" He cocked his head at her.
"No no Lord Brother. Nothing wrong with the missions, all have been completed." Xia studied her brother, tired from the events up till now and sighed, though she too felt the same as Huang, they could call each other brother and sister, she knew it would never be the same relationship that he shared say with his Masters or the Little Priestess that had been in their home at the time. She regretted that now, blinded by their mother's hate for all of each other, and in the end, what had that hate done but distance siblings from each other? She regretted to add to his burdens and so, slowly contemplated on telling him. "Tell me brother, Have you seen the reports on Kadaj's movements?" Xia waved to the pile of reports. Huang raised a questioning brow at her before she continued. "It seems that our little Noble widower has been sneaking into the Legions territories in attempt to draw you out." Xia sighed, "It seem's that he wants a continuance of the battle you didn't finish with him." She watched the emotion disappear from Huang's face and cringed.
"I see....Where was he last seen?" Huang asked quietly, the reports had said nothing about Kadaj breaching their territory after all. If Kadaj wanted to end this, well Huang was all the more happy to help him. It would help him to at least fend off the death of his mother at his hands for more time.
"He was seen close to Cherry Tree Hill brother." She watched as he rose from his seat and prepared to meet the man, biting her lip she wanted to ask him to not go but refrained. He was still haunted by the killing blow, and by the fact that he hadn't been fully able to stop the first attack. She helped him into his armor and handed him the sword before looking at him. "Goddess journey too you my brother. I will see you tonight then." She nodded at him.
After he was done, He nodded at his sister. He wouldn't promise to return to her, like she wanted him to and left the room. Kadaj had sent out a silent challenge. Huang would accept it now.
---
The Hill was the same as always. No matter what season, it was beautiful vision of nature, tree's lined each other and spread across it making the path's littered with leaves and petals a romantic spot for lovers and friends alike. He had never battled on the hill before but Kadaj had been seen here. Huang thought the threat would've been folly had he not ventured farther from the path into the tree's.
"Finally Chi Lee's son makes his appearance!" Kadaj's voice bellowed out from the tree's as he made himself known, stepping from the clearing of tree's and looking over Huang with a sneer. "I've come to pay you goddess wrath for you murder." Kadaj grinned like a mad man as he brandished his huge weapon. Huang didn't say anything in return though, his face stoic as he pulled out his needles and sword. "Say something Child, or are you mute after you cut your mother's head off? Did she say something to you? Did she speak to you before you mercilessly killed her?" Kadaj's face was turning red from his yelling as he swung the large weapon, splintering tree trunks around them with the sheer power. Huang though had battled this man before, he knew his moves just as well as Kadaj probably knew his. Their last battle had ended in a draw though, who was to say it would end differently this time as well? He ignored the taunting of his bigger enemy and focused mostly on his attacks as he flung needles and deflected the larger weapon with his sword, changing its path at Huang more then actually defending. Sweat started to sheen their faces, giving them a dedicated fighter's look as they continued their attacks on each other.
"Damn, you are just like you mother." Kadaj jumped back after their last bout and stared at the stoic assassin. It was odd to be battling the son of the one he loved, to look into Huang's eyes, his facial structure and his coloring and realize just how much Huang looked like his mother. "Haha, It took the one most like her to actually defeat her." Kadaj jumped when needles embedded themselves in the trunk of the tree behind them and he looked back at the boy. "Pissed little boy?"
Huang didn't want to give the other man the satisfaction of knowing that he had hit a sore spot for himself. He wasn't over his mother's death, though he had done himself. He wasn't over the fact that everyone still looked at him and saw his mother. Of all his siblings, he shared the most resemblance physically with her and yet, even personalities had been eerily similar. Though Huang never had the blood lust, the cruelness in his heart like chi did, he had the drive and power to do what she did. Though guilt laid heavily on him, he had the will power to push it away. Much like his mother had felt no guilt at all. To be compared to her constantly by her former lover, irritated him and made Huang hate himself.
"Stop speaking of such whimsical mutterings Kadaj." Huang didn't replenish his needles as he used the sword to run along the other man's larger weapon. When he reached Kadaj, he reached up to punch the man in the face. "Chi is dead." He said, ice stung on his words as he looked over the man, "Forget you ever been with her Kadaj. You won't kill me today, nor in the future." Huang sniffed as he looked down at the Noble Captain who stared back at him.
"I'll kill you one day little Huang." Kadaj snickered as he brought the weapon's hilt to bash Huang away. The hit landing on the just healing ribs from their last fast had Huang cringing away, diminishing his fighter spirit as he doubled over in pain. Just as Huang thought Kadaj would lay the final blow, Xia stopped it with her swords. Appearing from the shadows from no where.
"Sorry brother, but I couldn't watch any longer." Xia sighed as she shot a smoke bomb at Kadaj's eyes, blinding him and then grabbing Huang.
"Interfering witch!" Kadaj shouted as he dropped his weapon to cover his eyes. "This isn't over Little Lee children! I will have my revenge on you and your family!" He shouted, but it was quiet as Huang dipped in and out of a pain unconscious.
Later he would reprimand his sister but in the end all he could think was that he was grateful he was still alive. And to know that someone out there would always remind him of his mistake. It would keep him burning for the next time he could actually finish his battle with Kadaj.
