Chapter 1 – The Flash Back
(Po's Flashback; 10 years ago)
"I'll win this time Tigress!" Said Monkey, as Tigress helped him from the ground. This was his 9th sparring fight with Tigress. Tigress smirked
"Like the other nine times before. But i won every single time." Said Tigress, folding her arms.
"I was going easy on you those 9 times..." Monkey replied, trying to hide his shame and embarrassment.
"Yeah right. She's better then you Monkey, you have to face it." Said Po.
Everyone stared at Po, even Tigress.
"I think someone has a crush on a certain Tiger!" Said Mantis, causing everyone to laugh.
"Yeah! Call them TIPO when ever we see them!" Exclaimed Monkey.
Tigress tried not to look like she was embarrassed. Po did the same.
"Keep this up, and you'll be going to be fitted for a halo." Said Tigress sharply. Then everyone was quiet.
But they were all interrupted when Shifu called them outside. They all ran out, it was a warm sunny morning, but when they got out into the court yard, something caused them to feel the shivering cold. A Tiger was standing there, but his appearance chilled their spines, well, all but Tigress. His eyes as blue as Sapphires, fur as white as snow with black stripes. There was a scar going down his left eye. He was wearing Jade green pants with a waist scarf made of platinum. Everyone stared at him. He stared back, with arms folded.
"A new student Master Shifu?" Asked Viper.
"No. This is Sensi Jitzu."
"THE VILLAIN FROM ELEMENTS PEAK!" Po Shouted, and he, and the five (Accept Tigress) Lunged at him. But Tigress got there before them, and did something Po and the Others never saw her do before. A force field came out of her paws, sending the rest of the five flying back, and hitting the ground. Moaning and Groaning they all got up and stared at Tigress...
"Tigress what are you doing? HE IS EVIL!" Stated Crane.
"I'm sorry, i had to, you see-" Tigress started to explain...
" Tigress, you get ready for your journey. I'll tell them." Said Shifu.
"Yes Master Shifu." Said Tigress, and she walked away.
"Please excuse us Sensi." Said Shifu.
"Alright." Sensi replied gruffly, and he walked to the entrance. Shifu looked at his students.
"What's his problem? He seem s cold and mean." Said Crane.
"Students, Sensi has threatened China that he'd destroy everything, AND everyone. His only wish is; if someone gives him happiness and love, China's safe..." He said quietly.
"And why is Tigress involved in this?" Asked Mantis.
"He asked her paw in Marriage. And she said yes, for China."
"WHAT?!" They shouted Unison. Sensi stared at them, they smiled back at him, "Nutters!" Sensi thought.
"She was forced into this. Sensi remembered her and he sent his guards to tell Tigress. And she agreed. She has to leave today... You all should say your good - byes to Tigress." Said Shifu.
" Is she going forever?" Asked Crane.
"Oh, i think someone else likes Tigress!" Said Mantis, but ended up getting smacked by Viper.
"What?"
" Shut up Mantis! He means The furious five won't be the same without Tigress."" Hissed Viper.
"And No Crane, Sensi made a deal that he has 10 years with Tigress. Through that, he can't steal, kill, cause any raids anywhere. After that, he has agreed that he will let them take him to prison. but if he breaks one of these before she comes home, he'll be taken to prison. and she can come back there and then."
Everyone nodded, and they went to say there good byes... They decided to do their good - byes individually. It was Po's turn now. He walked into Tigress' room. She was still packing.
"I guess this is good - bye." Said Po, playing with his fingers. Tigress stopped and looked at him, and walked closer to him.
"It's not for ever you know. Just for ten years." Said Tigress. They stared into each others eyes, until Po, Unexpectedly, hugged her.
"Its gonna be dull around here without you. We'll miss you." Said Po. Tigress hugged him back, for the minute, she would forget being hardcore.
"I'll miss you all too." And then she whispered " Especially you."
Po froze, and let go of her. When she was finished, they started to walked out. But he stopped her at the door.
"How did you do that force field?" Said Po, remembering what she did to them earlier on that morning.
"When i accepted his question, he gave me the force field power. Because i'll be learning lots at his village." She answered. And when they walked out, the rest of the five were outside her room. She gave everyone a group hug in the hallway of the sleeping Chambers, trying not to let go.
"I'll miss you all so much..." Said Tigress, sadly...
*End of Flashback.*
Po sat by the base of the peach tree and looked upon the valley of peace. It was a warm summery day in Feburay, but yet he still felt cold. No other then that, it has been 9 years since Tigress left. But, soon, it will be ten years. And Tigress will be back soon, with her son. She wrote to them 9 months after she left, and told them she was pregnant with a boy. She and Sensi called him Jun, which means "Truthful" in Chinese. Po was happy for Tigress, but he was sad she did something like this for China, he made a promise to himself that he'll be so helpful to Tigress when she comes home... because for some reason... he has feelings for her... Would she have feelings for him?
"PO!" Shouted two familiar voices. Po jumped up, Viper and Crane came into the clearing.
"What's wrong?" Asked Po.
"Nothing is wrong! Shifu has great news! Tigress maybe coming home!" exclaimed Viper, wrapping her tail around Po's paw.
"What? She's not back until next year!"
"She MIGHT! Come on, Shifu wants us!" said Crane.
"Alright! Eh... Guys? I need a hand to get up." Said Po.
Viper and Crane helped him up and they ran, flew and slithered to the Palace. When they got there, Shifu, Monkey and Mantis and Viper 9 year old son Victor, were waiting, with another snake.
"Students, I have great news! Tigress is returning. she, and her son Jun will be here with in a weeks time." Exclaimed Shifu.
"HOORAY!" They all cheered, accept for the snake.
"Wait, she's not back til next year..." Corrected Po.
"Yes... but Sensi grew angry about this, and he killed one of his servants. He's been taken to prison and Tigress and her son was given permission to come home. She asked me if she could bring back some friends she made there, who wanted to know kung fu. So you'll be helping out."
"Yes master."
"And we have a new warrior joining us. Meet Vincent. The son of the river snake warrior."
Everyone said hello, Viper stared at Vincent, he was so handsome! He had eyes as clear as crystals, he had a river pattern from his head, to the tip of his tail. He had no blossoms in his head like viper.
"Oh My Gosh! I love your accent Vincent." Commented Po. Vincent smile at him, (He is Australian by the way!)
"Thanks Mate. I'm flattered by your comment." Replied Vincent, making Po squeak. Viper sighed, he would be much better as Victor's Father.
"You like him don't you mommy?" Asked Victor. Viper gave her son a look.
"Victor. I've had enough romance in my life. I don't think i want another relationship after your father." Said Viper.
"Well i meant by a friend, but that could be good also. Go and talk to him." Said Victor, giving her a little nudge, but the nudge was too hard, it made Viper trip. But Vincent caught her carefully.
"Are you alright?" Asked Vincent.
"Yeah. I'm fine... Thank you..." Viper stammered, and she gave him a smile.
"Your welcome. Whats that?" Asked Vincent.
"Whats what?" replied Viper, looking behind her.
"This." And he pulled out a single red rose from Viper's ear holes.
"Oh!" Said Viper, as he handed her the flower.
"Hey that was really cool!" squeaked Victor.
"There's something behind your ear hole too little guy!" And Vincent took out a cookie.
"Chocolate Chip! My Favourite! Thank you sir!" Said Victor, munching the cookie immediately.
"Would you like me to show you around the village?" Offered Viper.
"Sure." Answered Vincent, and the two slithered off.
"I think someone has a boyfriend!" Whispered Monkey.
"I agree." Said Po, But this made him think of Tigress. And He went to cook them all some breakfast.
I'll tell Tigress... He thought. I'll her how much i feel about her... that... I love her...
*Chapter two coming soon!*
