Jun looked down at the pale form of Mulan and felt a pang of guilt that she was the one laying on the cot instead of him. He reached down and tenderly caressed her face. He was only glad he had been able to protect her secret for a little while longer. He had convinced the army that his medical skills were significant enough to prevent them from calling a doctor. Shang seemed to have been suspicious of him but allowed it. Jun didn't understand what had happened to cause Shang's face to become so guarded around him. However most of his attention was focused on Mulan and he had no time to think about his commander's strange behavior.

Shang stood outside of the medical tent with the rest of the group. They were all concerned because Jun was such a popular person they were afraid he would be their casualty. Shang was standing out there for another reason. He was trying to reason out what he had heard and decide if he had somehow been mistaken. However when he couldn't bear waiting any longer he stormed into the tent, after all he was the commander and if they were all men there shouldn't be a problem with him entering the tent.

Jun looked up when Shang entered and for a moment was incredibly grateful that he had bandaged Mulan tightly and had given her another shirt to wear. He looked calmly up at Shang as he told him honestly about her condition. "The cut was shallow one…the blood loss was a danger because of the cold but he'll be fine after a night of rest."

Shang said nothing and just stared down into 'Ping's eyes as he said slowly "You called Jun 'Mulan'." He couldn't think of another way to bring up the question that had been haunting him.

Jun's eyes widened with panic and he shook his head slowly "No… There must have been a mistake…Jun and Mulan sound familiar…" Jun didn't have a chance to finish when Shang stepped forward and physically lifted him off of the ground by his collar and said "I heard you."

Mulan woke up slowly, sensing a disturbance in the small tent her eyes opened to take in the sight of Shang threatening Jun. She snapped into action, she sat up in the bed and gave a small hiss of pain as the cold air hit the bandaged wounds.

Jun's attention was diverted from the angry Shang when he heard Mulan's pained sound and looked at her in concern. "Don't move too quickly." He was reminded of the position he was in when Shang shook him to regain Jun's focus.

Mulan narrowed her eyes at Shang and said angrily "Stop it!" She kept her voice low, not wanting to attract attention from outside, most specifically Chi Fu. She thought they might be able to convince Shang to be quiet, but the stool pigeon would enjoy humiliating their family.

Shang narrowed his eyes and didn't loosen his hold on Jun as he said "Why should I Jun? Or should I say Mulan?"

Mulan realized what was going on and she stood up from the bed and laid her hand on Shang's arm "Let us explain everything…"

Shang looked for a moment as if he was going to ignore her but he slowly let Jun down and Mulan checked to make sure that her delicate brother was alright. The twins exchanged a look trying to figure out where they should start when Shang decided for them.

"You're Mulan…but I've met her…she isn't anything like you, is she in on this?" Shang's heart gave a small pang of pain when he thought of his love involved in this con. He was right, while the Mulan he had met looked similar to the Mulan before him they behaved and spoke nothing alike. He felt as if he had been made a fool of and wanted answers.

Jun stepped forward hesitating before gently laying his hand on Shang's arm "No… That is the real Mulan… the woman who went to the matchmakers and met you was me."

Mulan stepped in and spoke quickly explaining what they had been doing all those years and why it had carried on for so long like it had. "Shang Jun was just protecting me… he wanted this all to stop a long time ago…he just couldn't stand to see me unhappy."

Jun shook his head and said honestly "No Mulan I was selfish too…I was enjoying my life as much as you were enjoying yours, it's unfair for us to think we were being completely selfless."

Shang's head was still spinning from what he had learned and then he leveled his gaze on the real Jun, realizing for the first time how similar he was to the Mulan he had fallen in love with. He didn't know what he was going to do with the feelings. He had thought they would change but he realized as he looked down at Jun's hesitant face that he felt the familiar tug in his hear that he experienced when he looked at 'Mulan'.

Mulan looked between the two of them and blushed when she realized her part had been done. She stepped out of the tent with a small smile on her lips and told the remaining men that they had to prepare to move to the Capital and that 'Ping' and the commander were busy with discussion. When Chi Fu insisted he should be part of the discussion she told him that Shang had wanted him in charge of rounding up the soldiers the spiteful man smiled gleefully as he went to search out the soldiers.

Jun looked up in to Shang's dark eyes and said softly "I…I just wanted to secure her a good future…know that she was safe after I…" He didn't need to finish what he expected to happen to him.

Shang reached forward and cupped Jun's chin, his skin was just as soft as he remembered and he pulled him closer "It was an honorable thing to do…" He said softly. He remembered all the times during training where Jun had tried so hard to be better…stronger, and he remembered the solemn words he had spoken before the battle. Suddenly Shang was angry again, but for a different reason. "You were willing to die?"

Jun looked up at Shang with confusion "Of course…by my age most men are trained and ready for battle…they just need formal training before they can take part…" He shrugged his shoulders delicately "I was just…I don't know if what I was doing was for Mulan or for myself at the end." He blushed remembering the kiss they had shared.

Shang remembered as well and while he didn't understand how he could still hold these feelings for Jun he knew more than well enough what he wanted to do with them. He cupped Jun's face with his strong hand as he ran a calloused thumb down the line of his jaw "For yourself as well?" He murmured before leaning in and taking a kiss from Jun's gasping lips.

Jun's eyes widened at the surprise kiss and his mind blurred wondering how they could possibly be doing this now that the truth was out. When Shang ran his tongue against Jun's lips Jun felt a shock of pleasure go through him and let out a small sound of love before weakening and accepting Shang's kiss.

Shang moaned when Jun hesitantly opened his mouth for him and plunged deeper. He wrapped his free arm around Jun's waist and pulled his tightly against him so that Jun would be able to perfectly feel what he was doing to him. Shang smirked when he felt Jun's hesitant shudder and pulled away "We have to go the capitol…" He said breathlessly, his eyes ventured over Jun's body before he said softly "We'll sort this out later."

Jun nodded as he watched Shang leave the tent, grateful that Mulan's secret was going to be safe for a while longer and took a minute to calm himself down before following after.

Shang was surprised to see the soldiers already getting ready to go and looked and saw that Mulan was the one to thank for that. He still was disturbed over the trick they had pulled. But he could not argue that while Jun was the man Mulan was far better suited to the life of a soldier. The thought of Jun wearing heavy armor and fighting seemed foreign and made Shang's stomach clench in painful ways.

Shang's thoughts were preoccupied while they entered the Capitol's celebration though he managed to smile and wave politely the audience. He couldn't help but wonder what his father would think of the change of events remembering his fallen father made the occasion more than a little somber.

Jun stayed within eyesight of Shang but the expression on the commander's face clearly said that he did not wish to be disturbed.

It all happened very suddenly, the Emperor had said a few words when a familiar hawk stole the sword Shang was presenting and a familiar form was revealed in the shadows of the Palace.

Jun and Mulan exchanged a glance before the dragon was torn apart by the Huns hidden inside of it. Mulan and Shang along with the rest of the soldiers jumped into action. But there was little they could do as the Emperor was taken and they were overwhelmed.

Jun watched as they fought to break down the door of the palace. He shook his head and Mulan came to his side "They'll never make it to the emperor in time…" She said. Suddenly the same idea occurred to both of them and they shared a smile as they got the attention of Shang and the others.

Shang wanted to laugh at the sight before him. Mulan was dressed as a woman for the first time in years, Jun looked much like the Mulan he had fallen in love with, and he agreed with Mulan, these clothes suited him much better. Then Mulan had chosen her friends to help with the infiltration and while they didn't really pass as attractive women Shang was certain Mulan and Jun would get them as far as they needed. He exchanged a look with Jun and offered a small smile.

He was surprised how reluctant he was to let Jun go, but to protect their secret he had no choice but to treat him like every other man under his command. They left and distracted the guards enough before subduing them and Mulan gave Shang the signal to go.

They managed to get the Emperor away from Shan Yu but Shang was over taken by the larger warrior. Mulan and Jun hesitated. Mulan cut the rope and distracted Shan Yu by revealing that she was the solider from the mountain. While Jun was busy rushing to Shang's side and seeing if he was okay.

Jun watched Shan Yu chase after Mulan and prayed that she would be okay. He looked back down at Shang and smiled softly "Are you alright?"

Shang looked up at Jun and reached up to caress Jun's face "I'll be better in a minute." He coughed trying to get air back into his lungs and relaxed into the gentle hold of Jun. They looked at each other quietly for a moment, coming to terms with what they would do.

They heard explosions out the window and saw fireworks exploding into colorful celebrations. Jun hesitated for a moment before he bent over and placed a kiss on Shang's lips. He smiled when the Captain responded and shivered when he felt Shang's strong hand going through his hair to release his bun and giving them an ebony curtain of privacy.

Several Months Later

Shang woke as the morning light drifted into the bedroom and disturbed him. He sighed wondering why he never remembered to close them at night. He smiled and turned over and looked at Jun who was wisely curled away from the sun's beams. He leaned over and kissed the bare shoulder he found his hand trailing down the soft skin towards he firm member that was awakening with the dawn.

Jun gave a yawn and looked over his shoulder at Shang, unsurprised to see that one hand was already playing with his long silky hair. Jun still couldn't help blushing when he saw Shang's obvious arousal. He turned to look away but Shang's lips followed him and kissed him until he relaxed. He smiled and rolled over into Shang's chest.

Mulan was out, living her life as the celebrated warrior Fa Jun, and Lee Shang had raced back to the Fa family to marry Fa Mulan. Only Shang and the Fa family knew the truth.
