ALL THE SOLDIERS had set out the next day, early in the morning, wearing their armor over their bodies, swords by their hips. Y/n walked beside Milan as Ling, Yao and Chien-Po were just a little in front of them.

ALL:

"For a long time we've been
Marching off to battle."

Walking for a little longer, the soldiers all found themselves walking along a cliff with a waterfall next to it. By himself, Yao was walking with a hunched back as he glances off to the distance, seeing cows peacefully eating grass.

YAO:

"In our thundering herd,
We feel a lot like cattle."

ALL:

"Like a pounding beat,
Our aching feet aren't easy to ignore."

Seeming to be more engergized than the other soldiers, Ling runs past Milan and Y/n, stopping beside Yao and Chien-Po.

LING:

"Hey! Think of instead,
A girl worth fighting for."

Y/n and Milan share a glance. "Huh?"

"That's what I said." Ling replies, walking to them as he brings out a piece of paper.

LING:

"A girl worth fighting for.
I want her paler than the moon.
With eyes that shine like stars."

YAO:

"My girl will marvel at my strength.
Adore my battle scars."

CHIEN-PO:

"I couldn't care less what she'll wear
Or what she looks like.
It all depends on what she cooks like.
Beef, pork, chicken."

🗡

The soldiers were all now walking through a lake, holding up their swords above their heads as they were almost on the other side. As they walked, Yao looks at Y/n who stood beside Milan.

YAO:

"Bet the local girls thought
You were quite the charmer."
