STUCK WITH THE IMMORTAL EMPEROR : CHAPTER 1 – 10
It’s been hours since she was seated in the same position,where would she go? It was already getting dark.
But then all of a sudden she remembered and old lady she had met few weeks back,she sounded like a seer and her words to Zhuri were…”YOUR FATE IS A DANGEROUS ONE BUT IF YOU ARE READY TO FACE IT,YOU MIGHT BE SAVED”
Zhuri got up almost immediately and started another run,she saw the lady on her way back from the stream that night but where would she find her now?
Strangely she saw some lanterns burning from afar,she had to stop running because this road is usually lonely and quiet,but where’s that light coming from,? She started walking slowly then she saw a lady selling some old treasures,Zhuri wondered why one would even think of selling here,nobody is passing.
Nevertheless,she greeted with a bow and continue walking.
“You look like someone who’s ready to face her fate” The lady said and Zhuri immediately turned.
“How…..how did you….” She stammered,right in front of her the lady changed to the old woman she met.
Zhuri immediately ran to her,breathing heavily.
“Old one….please….help” She broke into tears.
The woman smile.
“You sound desperate” She said.
“Yes I am…I’m dying slowly old one,I might not even last till the next full moon,I feel weaker every passing second,it’s draining inside my soul,please” Zhuri cried.
The old woman said nothing,she only watched her.
“What am I supposed to do old one? I’m ready” Zhuri said in tears as she stood in front of the woman who smiled sinlessly.
“Are you saying this because of the pains?”
“Yes…..”
“But who said you won’t pass through pain where you’re going?”
Zhuri said nothing.
“Think carefully before you make your decision child…..”
“I don’t think there’s any other pain greater than the ones I’ve passed through,my whole life,as long as I will have you by my side,then please take me away from here”
“It’s a journey to a dry tree”
Zhuri was confused.
“A dry tree?” She asked and the old woman smiled.
“A dry tree that have refused to bring forth flowers,,your FATE is to make it bloom again…child”
“If it’s about that,I should be able to, old one,I love nature alot” Zhuri replied and the woman laughed.
“You will soon understand” She said
“Here” she searched through her treasures and handed a bracelet to Zhuri.
“Wear it and accept your fate no matter what” She said.
Zhuri immediately wore it around her Left wrist.
“What next?” She asked and the woman smiled.

MOON EMPIRE**
Zhuri opened her eyes slowly and looked around,it was blurry at first but then it started getting clear but at the same time more confusing.
‘Where am I? What’s this? How did I get here?’ She was asking those questions In her head as she balanced herself to sit up.
She checked herself out,the dress on her body look so expensive that it became more strange,where are those scars all over her body?? But the shock became more when she mistakenly saw her face in the mirror. She screamed and immediately covered her mouth,she have another face entirely!!
‘What’s going on!!” She screamed and looked around her. It was then dawn on her,she was inside a palanquin.
‘Who is this? Who owns this body?? Is she a princess??’ Zhuri thought but seeing the eyes,she looks like one who have been crying.
She was so confused.
