You bring your sword down, looking into your enemies eyes. He pants heavy breaths, looking at your sword. His sweat drips from his forehead, which he ignores. You get into a fighting stance, and so does he.

"Bring it on." you say.

"With pleasure." he replies.

You go after him with amazing speed, and he gets knocked down by your flying sword. You put a foot on him, and look down at his face. He's shaking uncontrollably from the bruises and cuts, and now the sword which is stuck right next to his slowly dying heart.

"You b*****d!" he chokes out

"I have beat you, finally. This proves I do have the strength to beat the king. Dear Prince, may you rest in peace." you reply laughing walking away

You get onto your horse, and ride into town. With the Prince's tunic in your sach, and a note to the King in your left hand. Your right hand holding the reins of the horse.The slaves look at you with envy, sensing you have defeated a not-so powerful enemy. Realizing that little smirk on your face, you wipe it quickly away when the messenger for the king arrives.

"Madame." the messenger gets on one knee, and others follow

"Messenger, please deliver this message to the King. It's urgent. Tell him, a new ruler is coming. Tell him that new ruler is I. Shi-Chu. I am the next Lady Ruler." you say

"Yes Madame Shi-Chu." the messenger runs into the castle with the letter.

You go to the nearest pub. Your welcomed with cheers, and the working folks beg for you to drink with them. You do so. You play a few games of pool and darts. The king comes in, and everybody silences, and bows down low to the ground.

"I hear that a lady wishes to defeat me?" he laughs

"Yes! And I will defeat you!" you say

He walks foreward, and you stand your ground; because you are not afraid.

"Shi-Chu. Ha, you again? Didn't I fight you just last summer? I nearly killed you." he says

"Yes, that was I. But, I am more powerful now, and I am well alive, ready to fight."

"So be it. Tomorrow, noon sharp. Don't be late. And no weapons. Just fists of fury."

You nod your head in agreement. He leaves, and you go home.

"Madame Shi-Chu, you're home early." says your maid

"Yes. I need rest. I am fighting for my life, my people, and my rightful place as Ruler."

"Goodnight Madame Shi-Chu."

"Goodnight."
