A/N (AniGirl): Here it is! Finally - Our own take on a Kung Fu Panda TV-series - except it's written, of course! Yeah, it is me, AnimationGirl, talking! But I can't take the honor of writing this; it was my boyfriend, Timbit, who did it all! But later I will come up with episodes! Until then; I hope you'll love this as much as I do! Remember to check out our polls too!

We do not own Kung Fu Panda.

Episode 1: Cutting the Kitten's Claws: "Tigress. Master Tigress. Hardcore Tigress. That was how people knew her. But now, after an accident involving her head, the so-called hardcore part of her is gone, and suddenly the Jade Palace has to deal with a Tigress who doesn't want to fight."

"Tigress? Tigress, can you hear me?" Tigress opened her eyes. At first everything was blurry, then her vision returned to normal and she saw Viper looking down at her.

"… Yes, I hear you," Tigress managed to mutter. Why did her head hurt so much?

The green tree viper had a very worried expression on her face, but it changed once she saw that Tigress was awake. She turned around and called: "Everyone, she's awake now!"

Tigress flinched at the loud sound of Viper's voice and unconsciously hissed, as her head started hurting again.

"Sorry, Tigress," Viper quickly excused herself. But before she could do anything, the others came into Tigress' room.

"Tigress! Yes, I knew you'd make it!" Po exclaimed happily.

"Yeah, me too!" Mantis agreed, and eventually everyone agreed. Tigress tried to smile, but the pain she felt in her head, because of their loud voices, was almost too much.

"Guys…" Tigress started. She wanted to ask them to give her a little peace, but she didn't have to.

"Enough," a voice from behind the others spoke. The others turned around and Tigress tilted her head slightly. Shifu stood in the door, a stern expression on his face. "Tigress has to rest."

"Aww, but she finally woke up…" Po started, but eventually they all agreed to leave the exhausted feline alone.

Shifu waited till everyone had exited Tigress' room, then he closed the door and walked up to her bed. "How are you feeling, Tigress?"

"Bad… Tired," Tigress replied, suddenly feeling very dizzy. Shifu brought a hand up to her head and started moving something around. That was when Tigress realized that there was a binding on her head.

"Do you remember anything?" Shifu asked after tightening the binding a little.

Tigress thought for a moment. Well, there was something with a fight… there wasn't really much else. What had happened? "No, not much… What happened to me?"

"It was Fung and his gang," Shifu replied calmly, looking at Tigress with an expression she had only seen a few times in all the years she had known the red panda – one of worry. "They tried to steal from the marketplace in the village.

I sent you and the others down to stop them," Shifu continued after a while. "But somehow they managed to ambush you and knock you out."

"What happened?" Tigress asked. The more she thought of it, the more her head started hurting.

"From what I heard, one of them knocked you against a wall – you hit it with your head," Shifu replied. He sighed and got up "But now you have to rest – I already sent the others off so you could. Good night, Tigress."

Before he left, Shifu blew out the light of the lantern hanging in Tigress' room. The room fell dark and Tigress realized that it was nighttime.

"Good night, Master." She sighed one last time and tried her best to get comfortable without causing her head to hurt.

But the struggles weren't over for Tigress – once drifted into sleep, she was haunted by nightmares. They weren't as bad as some nightmares could be. Actually they were rather lame, but still enough to give her an uncomfortable sleep.

Tigress found herself in a temple of some sort. It looked like the Hall of Warriors, but still it didn't look quite right. The long corridor was quite beautiful actually – there were various scrolls with poems on the walls, and there were also some paintings… Are those of me? Tigress thought as she looked closer at the paintings. There was no mistaking it – no tigers in the world could have the same stripe markings.

Suddenly Tigress saw someone coming from one side of the hall. This other person was a tiger as well, but Tigress didn't recognize her. Maybe it was another dream of her long lost family?

No, when the other tiger came closer, Tigress could easily tell who it was – herself.

The other version of herself stopped and looked at her for a moment, staring deeply into her own eyes. This alternate version had a far colder, harder and tougher look in her eyes than Tigress normally had and she kept a stony face all the while. Suddenly the other version of Tigress started walking again.

Tigress expected her dream-self to stop, but she passed right through her, just like a spirit of some sort. Just then and there, Tigress felt a chill run through her, which caused her seeping body outside of the dream to jump very, very slightly.

Back in the dream, the end of the hallway that Tigress' dream-self had come from suddenly turned gray as if it lost its color. Somehow the hallway also got colder.

Tigress turned around and saw that the hallway around her other self, turned gray as well. Maybe this meant something serious!

"Wait!" Tigress heard herself calling, sounding incredibly desperate for Tigress-standards. "Who are you?"

But her other self didn't reply. She simply kept walking, eventually disappearing down the hallway, which Tigress now realized was incredibly long. But suddenly Tigress felt herself… waking up.

"Good morning, Tigress," Monkey said and closed the door behind him. He carried a tray with food, supposedly for Tigress.

"Good morning," Tigress said. As she looked at Monkey, she realized that he looked somewhat baffled. In a concerned voice she asked: "What's wrong, Monkey?"

"Tigress… Are you feeling alright?" Monkey asked very confused.

"Well, I'm feeling better at least," Tigress said and sent him the brightest smile she could manage.

"Really? You seem a little odd…" Monkey had never seen such a big smile on his feline friend's face. And her tone of voice was different too. It sounded so… so… jolly! It was almost surrealistic!

"No, I just think I needed some sleep," Tigress giggled, which was also new to Monkey. Monkey quickly gave her the tray of breakfast he had brought – some steamed and fried dumplings as well as some rice and a little fruit.

Tigress still seemed a little dizzy, so Monkey had to help her a little with the chopsticks. After he had, he hurried out of the room, setting course for the Peachtree of Heavenly Wisdom.

Eventually Monkey found Shifu, meditating by the tree. "Eh… I'm sorry for disturbing you, but…"

Shifu sighed calmly as he exited his meditation state of mind. "What is it?"

"It's Tigress, she's…"

"Is she awake?" Shifu's ears twitched, but then he realized just how excited he sounded. He cleared his throat and in a more calm tone, he said: "Is she awake?"

"Yes, but… eh…"

"What?" Shifu asked somewhat suspicious, somewhat worried. "Has the damage affected her too badly?"

"Well… I guess you could call it so," Monkey said, trying his best to not make it sound wrong. "But to be honest, she seems to have lost her mind."

"What do you mean?"

"She smiled at me and even giggled when… Master Shifu?" Monkey suddenly realized that the grandmaster was gone.

Shifu entered Tigress' room, but found that she was gone. He saw the binding from her head on the floor. At least this meant that she was fine… but where was she? If she had really ended up being mentally injured, she could end up in trouble.

Shifu hurried out of the barracks and was about to find Tigress, but suddenly he saw her. She seemed to have come from the staircase that had led from the village. What surprised Shifu the most was the fact that Tigress wore a brand new outfit.

It was some red dress, but it wasn't made of silk like her old outfit, but still a fine material. Actually it made her look far more feminine than she usually did.

"Tigress, where have you been?" Shifu asked, somewhat angry. "And what are you wearing?"

"I was just down in the village," Tigress giggled. "I got this from the village – there was a tailor who needed some help…"

Shifu didn't even pay attention at last – he was astonished, no, he was shocked! Master Tigress – the hardcore Kung Fu Master herself – was acting like a… like a… woman! The damages to her head were worse than Shifu had thought – it had completely changed her!

"Tigress…" Shifu started, making her stop her stream of words. She then just looked at Shifu with a wide smile on her face. It was still strange for Shifu to see his student like this, but he continued: "Tigress, I think you'd better go see a doctor… you don't seem to well."

"What are you talking about, Shifu?" Tigress giggled happily.

"You giggle… you smile all the time… Tigress, you're not acting like yourself…"

"I'm just happy, that's all!"

"But…" Shifu sighed. "You're Master Tigress…"

"Why yes I am," Tigress giggled. Shifu couldn't believe it – she didn't take him seriously!

"Hey Shifu! What's going on?" Shifu turned his head and saw Po and the others coming towards him and Tigress. "Monkey told us something was… Tigress?"

Just then did the others notice just how different Tigress looked – wearing a dress and a big smile. Suddenly they noticed something else: a pink flower that was stuck by her right ear.

Everyone, including Monkey who had seen her earlier, dropped their jaws. They had never seen Tigress like this – let alone seen her look feminine.

"See, I told you!" Monkey said once his brain started focusing again. "She's turned into a woman!"

"Hey, she was a woman before too," Viper said, sounding a little harsh towards Monkey's comment. "She just let her feminine side show, that's all."

"Well, yes I have!" Now the other also noticed her much higher voice and big grin. "And I feel so happy today!"

"Okay, something's definitely wrong," Mantis whispered into Po's ear as he took place on the panda's shoulder.

"Nah, maybe she just ate something bad – or maybe something very good," Crane suggested. "Who knows, maybe it's a good thing…"

"I think it's a good thing!" Tigress giggled.

"But I think we need to get used to that," Monkey said, still baffled at the fact that Tigress had changed overnight.

"Okay, Tigress, I hope you still remember your awesome moves," Po said in an upbeat tone of voice as the seven entered the Training Hall along with Shifu.

"So do I," Shifu muttered, almost sounding sad.

Well, it was just some ordinary morning training – though it was a little delayed, Po thought. Maybe it would get Tigress to act more normally, once she had started hitting some dummies – and opponents!

Everyone got started with their usual training; Mantis got started with the Gauntlets of Wooden Warriors, Monkey with the Seven-Talon Rings, Viper with the Field of Fiery Death and Crane started with the Jade Tortoise of Wisdom.

Po waited a little, mainly waiting for Tigress to get her battle mindset and begin, but she didn't. She just stood there, looking as innocent and sweet as ever. It was like she had lost the motivation to fight!

"Eh… Tigress, I don't know about you, but what about we get started?" Po said, somewhat anxious.

"… Well, I don't really feel like fighting," Tigress said innocently, getting Shifu's big ears to twitch. He looked over at Tigress. Then he looked at Po with a stern face that said: "Panda, get her out there, now!" and Po picked up the message.

"I really think you should," Po said, trying to persuade his feline friend to start training. "Get out there and smack some dummies!... right?"

"But they didn't do anything, did they?" Tigress asked, causing Po to smack himself across the face.

"Shifu… I think there's something seriously wrong with…"

"Yes, I can see that, Panda," Shifu growled and Po quickly ran off to start training on his own. Shifu then turned towards Tigress. "Tigress, go back to your room. I'll be there in a moment."

"Alright, Shifu," Tigress said happily and even ran off in a very girly way.

"That's odd," the doctor muttered one he was done examining Tigress' head as much as he could.

"What is?" Shifu asked worriedly. "How bad is it?"

"Granted I cannot take her head apart, everything seems completely normal – no signs on amnesia or the least bit of dizziness – she seems to have retained everything from before the damage."

"But why is she acting like she does?" Shifu asked desperately. Her personality – that was one thing that hadn't been retained! "She refuses to train and acts like a…"

"Like a woman?" the goose doctor asked. Shifu nodded. "Granted, she is, so maybe it's a turn for the better…"

"She's a Kung Fu Master, not a teenage girl!" Shifu growled, shocking the goose a little. "Do something!"

Shifu was surprised by the desperation in his own voice, and was hoping that none of his other students were overhearing the conversation between him and the doctor.

Tigress had gotten some medicine, which was supposed to help, but all it had really done was to cause her to fall asleep.

"I'm sorry, but there is nothing that is physically possible for me to do," the doctor sighed. "All we can really do is hope that she'll revert to 'normal' by herself."

"Master Shifu!" The door to Tigress' room slid aside and Po entered. "Fung and his gang have returned…"

The sleeping figure of Tigress moved a little in her deep, medicated sleep, but didn't wake up. Shifu changed to a softer and gentler tone of voice: "Just get defeat them… even if you're just five, you should still be able to do it."

"Alright Shifu, you can count on us," Po said cheerfully and ran off to join his friends.

Po jumped forwards with a powerful kick, sending the crocodile flying backwards. When he landed, he immediately got back on his feet and was quickly ready to attack Po again, as if he hadn't just been attacked.

The crocodile tried to hit Po with a slap of his long flexible tail, but the panda caught it before it could cause any damage to him. Po then swung the crocodile around and smashed him against one of his teammates, who had tried to sneak up on Po from behind.

Suddenly Fung appeared out of nowhere and almost hit Po with a small battle axe. Po jumped backwards and was just barely able to dodge the attack.

"So where's your little kitten?" Fung asked in a harsh voice as he continuously slashed after Po, but ultimately missed.

"She's… well, she's not here," Po said, stating the obvious, as he dodged another swipe of Fung's axe.

"Well, I can see that," Fung growled and swung his axe again, but this time Po managed to stop it, by catching it by the handle. Next Po kicked Fung in the stomach, sending the crocodile flying a few meters away. Po had still managed to hold onto the axe, and now he took it and threw it away, so that Fung couldn't use it.

"But what's wrong? Did the little kitten not survive the last battle?" Fung teased in a harsh tone. "Maybe she's not as hardcore as she appears to be!"

"Well, it's possible," Po muttered, considering it a little. She did seem a lot softer now, so maybe that was who Tigress truly was… maybe it was all just an act… could that be possible? But if it was, why stop acting just all of sudden? No, it must have been because of the damages done to her head. "I mean no, Tigress is the most hardcore person to ever live – don't question it!"

"Heh, then explain why she isn't-…" Fung was cut off when he was hit by one of his minions. "What are you doing, you fool?"

"Actually it was me," Monkey said in a teasing tone of voice as he threw another crocodile towards Fung. Suddenly Po noticed someone near him – Tigress! She just stood there, looking innocent and… wait, was that make-up she was wearing?

"Tigress, you came to join us!" Po said excitedly.

"Is that my make-up you're wearing?" Viper asked surprised.

"Yes," Tigress replied. "I'm sorry; I couldn't find any other make-up around the palace…"

"No, it's okay," Viper said. "It suits you!"

"Thanks," Tigress giggled.

"Hey, can we get back to the fight?" Fung growled annoyed. Just then, he pushed his two companions off of himself and charged Po again. Po dodged the reptile's punch, and countered it with a punch on his own, managing to hit Fung in the face.

Everyone went back to their fight – all except Tigress. She just stood there, as if she didn't know what to do.

"Aren't you going to help, Tigress?" Mantis growled at the feline as he kicked a crocodile away with his small and powerful feet.

"But I don't want to fight," Tigress said, somewhat pathetically.

"WHAT?" Everyone somehow got a hold of a crocodile with their hand, talon or whatever else they used for grabbing things.

"But fighting is pointless," Tigress mewed – even Fung and his men looked surprised. "And I don't want to hurt anyone."

But one of Fung's companions took this as an advantage and charged Tigress. He raised a wooden club, brought it backwards, ready to hit and hit Tigress' left cheek. The impact was powerful enough to send her two meters or so backwards, where she landed on the hard ground.

"Tigress!" Po yelled and ran to help his friend, but Fung and a few more crocodiles blocked his way. Looking over their shoulders, Po could see Tigress on the ground. She was holding a paw up against her damaged cheek and the crocodile who had hurt her walked closer towards her.

A/N (TLA): So! There you go! This is as mentioned like the TV-series Legends of Awesomeness, but different to the point where we add in our own elements and ideas and skills. This particularly is a two-parter, but most episodes here will be One-shots. ;) And just like Legends of Epicness takes place after the first movie, this is supposedly taking place after the second. ;) Anyways I hope you liked it, feel free to leave a review - we'd really appreciate that. Thanks!
