the three kingdoms

The three had parted ways two days later after establishing what kind of kingdoms would work well with each other instead of against each other.

Bo Fu Chan declared he wanted to rule a kingdom that was strong and fast.

Fu Huo declared that he wanted a kingdom that was good with ranged weapons and who could cover his allies from afar.

Guan Chou declared that he would have a kingdom that was able to have momentum in its attacks and have great stratigists.

 So they went their seperate ways. Bo Fu Chan to the north, Fu Huo to the south east, and Guan Chou to the south west. Each kingdom had a different look and style to it while being connected to the other three via underground tunnels, which were wide enough to transport two armies side by side. There was a meeting hall where the three could meet to discuss the main problems that the clarve were having in general.

 The kingdom of the Pheonix of Oblivion was more ground based and had more focus put on science and healing, as well as devoloping new armor technology that would enable them to with stand even the most devestating of blows. In order to further ease the burden of running a kingdom, he took along three lost souls that he had come across in his travels.

The first of the two souls was a turtle shell that floated on a cushion of air. The shell had five holes on its front, from which various things would pop out. His name was Tsu Ren Tao. Seeing that luck had befallen him, Fu Huoimmediatley put Tsu Ren Tao in charge of devolping the strongest type of armor.

The second of the two souls, formerly inventer of the long distance, homing bomb loading trebuchet. He was encountered by Fu Huo when trying to get a bushle of apples down from a nearby tree. The soul, now a basketball sized eagle eyeball, with sixteen mini repeating cannons orbiting his body. To prove his worth, the turtle like creature shot down five apples and decided to join Fu Huos quest upon hearing his goals for the potential kingdom. His name was Yin Xin Ying.  Fu Huo was again grateful for Yin Xin Yings help and gave him the job of devoloping long ranged weapons that helped his allies more then the enemies.

Fu Huo encoutered a third soul, she claimed to be an excellent stratigic trap maker that no living person could ever surpass. Her new form was a large spider puppet, which could split into four seperate peices in order for her to better move around.  Her completed forms name was Houzhi Jina, while her form seperate forms had names of there own.

Her head, mandibles and two front legs had the name of Hou, she was the quickest of the four.

Her neck, waist and middle front legs were named Ji, she was the smartest of the four.

Her middle hind legs and eyes were had been named Na, she had the best sight of the four.

Her abdomen and back hind legs was named Zhi, she was the strongest of the four.

 Fu Huo decided to employ her to make his kingdom impenetrable to even the most stubborn enemy. With his three general spots now filled in, Fu Huo and his new friends made there way to the south east a few miles from Hu Huo's birth place.

The kingdom of the Raging Dragon was filled with many tall and extensive buildings, dedicated to both maintaining a stable economy and devoloping new ways of lightening the total wieght the soldiers would carry on them while moving. Its buildings had pictures of dragons wrapping around the biuldings. In their mouths, they carried glowing bowls of liquid which carried vast amounts of knowledge.  In order to better manage his kingdom, Bo Fu Chan enlisted the help of his grandfather Fu Nu Xhu,  his father Li Zhun Chan, and his own son Huo Guan Cho. He assigned them each an area for them to watch over.

Since Fu Nu Xhu was, in his past life, excellent at micromanaging funds and allocating expenses on the fly, he was put in charge of banking, funding, and economic growth.

Bo Fu Chans father, Li Zhun Chan, was an expert engineer who invented the highly versitile collapsing halberd, and incorperated his sons halberds design into his newest creation.

Before he and his son, Huo Guan Cho, had died in battle from an arrow barrage which tore them apart; Bo Fu Chan had been teaching Huo Guan Cho about mathematics and weight distribution. His son had soaked up all his lessons and surpassed even Dong Cao's ability to make even the heaviest of loads seem light as a feather. So Bo Fu Chan made him in charge of perfecting a lightwieght prototype under Li Zhun Chans tutalage.

a few weeks later there was a knock at the gates of the raging dragons kingdoms gate. the local guards were well trained despite having no experience at all and it was a pleasant day with a great summer breeze. "who is it?" the first asked calmly, thinking nothing of it at first. a sqeaky young boys voice crept through the crack between the gate doors. "it is only i, cao dong, here from the kingdom of blunt heavy things." the guards again, could only chuckle at the name of the kingdom. "well, thats nice boy. what do they want?" there was another few seconds of silence before the voice crept through the door again. we only wish to borrow a pound of sugar. we like making cookies. its weird i know, but that is how the kingdom is run."

the gaurds burt out laughing with no real way of knowing if it was actually a boy or not. "isnt that sweet? ok, tell you what kid, you grow your own sugar, and then well take you-" the first guard was interrupted as a metal rope attached to a small weight wrapped around his neck. the second gaurd was about the ring the alarm bell to warn bo fu chan, but he was struck down by the kingdoms name sake. namely a blunt heavy object. the voice crept through again as the ninja opened the gates. revealing a tall monster of a man in his late thirties. "we just wanted to buy a cup of sugar.. and take over the kingdom. mind if we come in?"

the man had ten layers of mucles, each provided additional strength if the situation called for it. "now attack my minions, let not a person excape here alive!"

Guan Chou had been thinking about how best to create a kingdom which could create momentum for an attack that could be repeated many times in sucession. He often trained with his bladed steel balls in his travles, often practicing as he went along on his journey. He was only a few miles away from his birth place, but he found the perfect spot on top of a high hill, which was in front of a big pile of boulders. He climbed to the top and looked at his view.

To the north he saw Bo Fu Chans kingdom as it was spread across a number of settlements, filled with red, gold and white ornate biuldings with bronze dragons wrapping around almost ever building. 

To the south east he saw Fu Huos kingdom. Its buildings made of silver, black obsidian, and multi colored opals. He saw Fu Huo watch over his three generals atop a fiercely tall attack tower that had many trebuchets and catapults, as well as a spiral stair case.

Guan Chou wondered what design he should wanted to implement when a giant jack o lantern looking creature with a minigun sticking out of its forehead and hundreds of chains that wrapped together to form arms and legs thundered towards him. "GET OFF OF MY HILL! CHAIN TORNADO!" all at once the creature spun rapidly and jumped into the air. Its long chains unraveling at a  surprising pace. Nearly catching Guan Chou off guard. "Oh no you don't! SHREDDING TORNADO!" Guan Chou said as he unleashed his bladed steel balls. 

The balls and chains slammed against each other, as the pumpkin like creature attacked relentlessly, Guan Chou deflected almost all of the attacks, some chains hit him, and some he dodged. He was finally able to gain the upper hand when the jack o lantern creature reformed itself around a tree and was stuck. Guan Chou had to know something. "Why did you attack me? I have done nothing to warrant this agressive behavior!" he shouted almost directly in the open maw of the jack o lantern's mouth. "This is my hill! I live here! You don't just go trampling on someones home like that!"

Guan Chou was taken back. This place was its home? He was caught off guard by Ying Jizi's proclamation that this was his home. In fact, he was so off gaurd that he forgot to dodge Ying Jizi's chains and was blind sided by the attack, which sent him flying off the hill and rolling through puddles of glowing mud, and piles of sticky shrooms. "WAIT!" but it was too late, the pumpkin like creature had already launched another attack upon Guan Chou with double the force as the first one. "I SAID WAIT!" Guan Chou dodge all the attacks and noticed that Ying Jizis attacks were slowing down. "WHAT? I wish to have a home that I can defend properly!"

"This is what I wish for as well Ying Jizi, I wish to create a proper kingdom that has momentum in its attacks, with the greatest stratigeys employed behind them!" Guan Chou withdrew his bladed steel balls into his forarms and climbed back up the hill. "I MUST KEEP MY WORD TO BO FU CHAN AND FU HUO! I AM GUAN CHOU OF THE RAZOR SHARP TYPHOON! THE GREATEST WARRIOR OF ALL TIME! AND I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED BY A VEGETABLE!" Ying Jizi formed his body from the lengths of chains he had at his disposal. "I suppose you are correct in that aspect Guan Chou. I also admire your spirit and cunning. Tell you what, I will join with you to over see the construction of this 'Kingdom of the Razor Sharp Typhoon, and together... We shall have the greatest of the three kingdoms!"

A couple of days later the kingdom was fully built and operational. Thanks in part to the fact that not only could Ying Jizi produce chains from his body, but he could also generate great lengths of super heated metal, which could form anything he wished. Guan Chous kingdom was complete at last. He looked at the many residents of his kingdom and smiled with enthusiasm. The walls were forty feet high and three feet thick, with ramps and boulders in great stacks. The buildings were a reflective silver which cast an array of colors and patterns across each building. Inside, the kingdom looked as it would go on forever, but in fact it was only about three miles in radius, with spiked pit traps that could be activated when invaders attacked, deep crystal blue lakes and moats with fiery cattergators floating peacefully while awaiting there next meal.

Guan chou was very happy.

His kingdom was now complete.
