Title: Sun-Sue and The Art of War (Chapter 3)
Author: kappamaki33
Rating: PG-13
Character/Pairings: Full ensemble (Sue, all Glee kids, Mr. Schue, Emma, Brad and the band, Burt, Carole, Coach Beiste, Blaine, and Jesse); canon pairings as of the end of “Prom Queen”
Spoilers: Through 2.20 (Prom Queen)
Word Count: ~2,100 (this chapter); ~20,000 (complete)
Summary: AU after “Prom Queen”. Sue is running out of time to destroy the Glee Club before Nationals in New York City. She finds guidance in an ancient Chinese treatise on military strategy and tactics. This inspires her to join New Directions on the eleven-hour bus trip from Lima to NYC in an unusual capacity.
Posting Plan: I plan to post new chapters every other day (possibly every day if I get ambitious).
Prologue: All warfare is based on deception.
Chapter 1: Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.
Chapter 2: We are not fit to lead an army on the march unless we are familiar with the face of the country-its mountains and forests, its pitfalls and precipices, its marshes and swamps.
Chapter 3: If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them.
Chapter 4: At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to oppose you.
Chapter 5: Hence the saying: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.
Chapter 6: Do not interfere with an army that is returning home.
Epilogue: ...There are not more than five musical notes, yet the combinations of these five give rise to more melodies than can ever be heard.
Chapter 3: If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them.
