    Thats  the only dream he have until he meet a cute girl, so he thought. He meet that little  girl at the  market place  were few boys bullying her. He defend her eventhough the boys punched  and kick him up. "Are you alright?" As the girl who tried to help him up.

    Eventhough  everybody partsof his body is hurting he drew a smile upon his face. "This scratches  is nothing!" He proudly say. "How about you? Are you alright?!" As he inspect the little  girl. "I'm fine! Please stop touching me!" As she blushed  furiously.

    "Wow! Your pretty cute when your blushed like that!" As Yunlan cough, "My name is Zhao Yunlan! Pretty! What about you?!" He ask eagerly. "My name is Shen Wei! And I'm not pretty!" As he pout. "Yikes! Don't  do that  you make my heart pop out!" As he laugh. What a pretty girl doing in the street without any companion. "I'm not afraid!" Said Shen Wei.

    "Don't  worry I'll be your body guard!" That made Shen Wei  laugh. "Yes! A weakling body guard!" As he tease him. "You'll see when I grow up! I'm gonna be a strong warrior! And I will defend you to your enemies. And mostly I'm gonna marry you!" As he confidence say.

    Shen Wei  blushed  and giggle. "But what if I'm a boy like you?!" He ask. "It doesn't  matter! I still gonna marry you! And were gonna live in a huge house and have plenty of children!" He shout.
Making little Shen Wei's eyes sparkle. "Yunlan! Do you mean it?! Your not joking  me? Are you?" As Shen Wei  seriously  ask. "Pinky promise!" As he took his small finger to his and cling to his finger as well.

    And everything you like I'm gonna buy it! I promise to you I'm gonna make you the happiest  bride in the world!" He proudly say. Making Shen Wei  cling to his arms. "Are you gonna make me  your queen?" Ask little  Shen Wei.  "If that's  what you want ?!" As  he buy a small hair pin with a pink flower in it and place it to Shen Wei's  hair.

    "Don't  ever took it off! So everyone knows your mine!" As he smile to him. "Really?" As Shen Wei  touched  it. "Yes! My father told me that he also gave my mother a hairpin to show  how much he loves him!" That made Shen blushed  even more, "That means you love me too?" He ask again.

    "My Wei wei! That's  why I gave you that! I love you too!" As he kiss him at the forehead. "Hey! Yunlan! Your just ten years old! Don't  make promises to that poor girl!" Said one of the store keepers. As they laughed to the two  love puppies.

    Yunlan just rubbed  his nape, "Please Mrs. Ning don't  tell that to my Wei wei! I'm just telling her the truth!" But Yunlan didn't  notice Shen Wei  mark him. As the mark glow to his neck.

    Suddenly  a beautiful  woman came, "Master Shen Wei! Your father is calling you now!" As she arch her brow seeing how her little master cling to the ordinary boy. "Yes! Zhu Hong I'm comming!"

    Yunlan suddenly  got worried, "Wait! Can we see each other again?!" Yunlan ask. As he hold Shen Wei  tightly. Shen Wei  gave him a sad smile.  "I'm sorry  Yunlan we just pass by in your town! But don't  worry if I have a time we could meet at that big tree!" As Shen Wei  pointed it to him.

    When Yunlan look at the big tree, Shen Wei  give him a quick kiss on the cheek making  him surprise and become red. The others was shocked  including Zhu Hong. As he quickly pulled Zhu Hong away. Leaving Yunlan with shocked  expression. Its been a minute Yunlan regained  his conciousness  and ran after Shen Wei  but he never see him again.

    "I'll wait for you to come back Wei!" He shout. Suddenly  his father also called him to come back to their store. As Yunlan ran back to his father with a smile plastered on his face. "Yunlan? You look happy?" His father ask. "Yes! Father! I met the most pretty girl in the world! And she's  gonna be my bride someday!" Xin ci smile and ruffle Yunlan's  hair. "Will see?!"

    Years pass by Yunlan  became a soldier of their kingdom. Everytime they have a break Yunlan would go to the same big tree with a bouquet  of flowers waiting for Shen Wei to come. But he never did.  His friends and comrades  are worried for him. "Look its Yunlan again waiting at that big tree for that girl!" Said Lin Jing.  "Poor Yunlan! That girl will never come back!" Said Da quing. As days became weeks and weeks became months. As years pass, Yunlan lost hope in seeing his pretty girl as he dropped  the flowers at the ground.

    Suddenly  his comrades  called him. Their leader want to tell him something.  "Yunlan! Your promoted to be the general of the group east!" But his leader notice his not happy. "Yunlan? Whats  wrong aren't  you happy?" He ask. "Sir! My request, did one of our soldiers seen my Shen Wei?" He ask.

    "Yunlan! Yunlan! I'm sorry to tell you they didn't  found her! And we don't  have time for that! You know our king is at war with the gods! They are very powerful being! And ruthless! We didn't  know how to kill them! But still we can slow them down to reach our village!"

    Yunlan look at his leader  and want to know why the gods are after their king. As his leader know what his thinking. "King Ming doesn't  want to bow to their will that's  why we having this fight! And why he promoted you! Since your the best of all our warriors and no one can beat you at any fight! Yunlan! Are you ready to fight the gods! If you win maybe that pretty girl will appeared to congratulate you!" As his leader smirk.

    In a minute  Yunlan is preparing to leave his village, his best friend Da quing  came to help him in his mission. "Look you don't  have to do this! It's  a suicide mission!" Yunlan just smirk, "Let the gods bring them the most powerful warrior they have! I will destroy who ever it is and I'm gonna find Shen Wei  no matter what!" As he ride his horse with his men and left their  village.
