PERFECT

CONVINCING

So hellooo this is the princess , a women ,but a human just like youll. Just why?....can youll stop stairing. Im used to this but im actually fed up of this.....ahhhh......why do youll dont want to accept a women in this manner.....???? I mean the commander was better. He didnt give the obvious stare of being shocked.

I straightened up myself a bit more as i saw the old generals marching towards us. We stopped but i kept on to my horse though the Commander, Bojan and Chengseng got down. I patted and comforted my handsome 'BLACK SPIRIT'(thats the meaning of his name) letting the commander to deal with the generals first.
I dont think they are overjoyed by my presence.
The commander looked at me and bowed. He looked in to my eyes. They are pitch black and showed so much of strength....handsome of course...then As if understanding me he went to the generals first without inviting me. They all greeted him with joy but with their eyes still glued on me.
Then the commander with his head lowered came towards me. He looked up at me.
"Princess, let me escort you." Now i could see that he is uncomfortable too.
He offered me his hand for support to get down. I accepted and stepped towards the most respectable generals whom at this point looked to me like old hawks disgusted by seeing a small weak, soft, flower in the blood shedding war pits.
Meanwhile my two supporters attended to my horse and the small baggage with my essentials and my weapons.

" Oh! the Princess! Its an honour to serve you.we welcome you to the war.....By the way You do look a bit like the emporer." one of the oldest hawks spoke sarcastically. The commander looked hopelessly at the old man. I guess he respects him as an elder or may be a teacher. He sighed. And ignoring the young commander he kept his eye contact on me waiting for a saluting statement.
Now about my look,he seems like he is dissapointed.and as i expected he does think im soft as a flower.Now now...Let me change it.

"Of course sir! Its the same blood...Afterall a daughter also should portray her father."
My goodness.look at his face it went purple. I never thought of this old man to be this shocked. Others gave the same look but not that bad. Even the commander's eyes widened.
Hey Huwanuwei dont be that harsh. Cant you recognize this great man.
"You must be General Shing. Sir Im honoured to fight alongside the lost emporers most experienced loyal supporter even at the most crucial moment of the empire. And thankyou for welcoming me."
I bowed to him with respect. He retrieved from his shock and a bit flattened by the comment carefully built his words.

"The commander did inform us about your arrival princess and about our new allies. Ill look forward for your support." He replied this time with more respect but not with trust on me. I cant blame it.i felt the commander s tention release. The other generals also then greeted me. We were guided to an open hut to take a seat. Most didnt like me that much. But for the sake of the commander i guess some do trust me. I analized each and every commander. They were different characters but all were loyal. Its then i noticed General Shing analysing me. I acted as if i didnt notice and turned towards the commander. It was useless. He was discussing something with Chengseng and Bojan. Im totally being ignored.. time to time every one smiled and nodded at me.

Then Chengseng came to me and bowed dragging everyones attention to us. He said that our men got a tent to rest with the others so hell make them settle there. I agreed. So he left leaving me back to the general shings hawk eyes.
The night was a bit freezing cause specially we were on top of a mountain. A thin mist wandered around us. I warmed up my arms while the others were busy praising thecommander and about my arrival. I ignored. Seeing me freezing ,the Commander asked the generals to walk to the main discussion tent and came to me.

"Princess, it must have being a long day for you and the weather is not that welcoming. Ill escort you to your tent so you can rest."he said lowering his head.
I tried to speak but he cut my words. He looked at me .
"Please dont worry highness, we wont discusss that much cause its too late. Everyone needs the rest. Ill inform them the main things and we'll discuss properly tommorrow afternoon. The day after tommorrow we'll have to fight. Is there something you need me to inform them or the soldiers. princess?"
