Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Kung Fu Panda
A/N: This story is partly a little on Persona3 which is a video game but don't worry if you don't know anything. This is where the fun of the story starts. Oh and one more thing, please read "Tai Lung's Past" FIRST before reading this. If not, you really can't get the feel for Tai Lung and Tigress. More on Tai Lung and Tigress in later chapters. Please be patient.
"You…ungh…Can't defeat me…" the bruised up snow leopard said with denial.
"You're just a…..big….fat…..panda….." and fling a punch on to the big fat panda that by now has withheld the snow leopard's paw
"I'm not just a big fat panda. I'm THE big fat panda." with that said, the panda, Po, lift up his pinky.
The snow leopard, Tai Lung, gasped, "The Wuxi finger hold!"
"Oh, you know this hold."
"You're bluffing, you're bluffing," Tai Lung was now in fear and anxiety as to what will happen to him. "Shifu didn't taught you that."
"Nope," Po replied. "I figured it out. Ska-.."
Freeze
Everybody stopped. Literally everything. Time has stopped completely. Nobody moved but Tai Lung was the only one realizing this.
"Wha…?"
"My oh my. What a priceless scene." a mysterious voice said. It was gentle yet devilish in a sort of way. A small laugh echoed, "Hoho…do you honestly think we'll just leave you? I don't think so."
Then, a female tiger finally appeared out of the shadow not far from Tai Lung.
"You. Vikki…." Tai Lung snarled.
"Hoho…That's right and don't wear I down handsome." the female tiger replied.
She wore bright pink clothing that looks like one of those sexy Arabic dancers with her fur belly shown off. A sky blue sash hung around her two arms overlapping her neck.
"I see you're on a bit of trouble. Honestly, do you think you can run away from us after your famous battle between the furious five at the thread of hope? Hmph…I don't think so."
"I don't need your help." Tai Lung roared back.
"Oh? Really? Then I shall return time and let's see what the Wuxi finger hold can do to you. Hmm?" Vikki grinned devilishly.
"No,no,no,no…. Wait, wait." Tai Lung as anxious and was slowly losing it.
"Ok,Ok. I don' know what it can do. I might die. I don't want to die yet."
Tai Lung sighed, "Alright, help me." The bold and strong fighter was now asking for help, what dignity did he had left? He actually lost to a big fat panda and he was now given a second chance.
"It's always good to ask for help Tai Lung. You can't handle everything you know." another mysterious voice echoed again.
"Let me guess..Leo." Tai Lung said reluctantly.
A shadow appeared next to Vikki and revealed itself. This time it was a lion. A big lion.
This lion had an intimidating look but yet gentle on the eyes. He wore an extremely tight orange t-shift which actually camouflages with his fur colour very well and his body features could very well be seen under that tight T.
"Disappointing isn't it?" he smirked. "And here I thought you were such an opponent after your performance in Chor-Gom prison and thread of hope. What a letdown. You actually lost to a big fat panda. How ironic."
Tai Lung was so angry and boiled that he could actually burst out of his head already then and there.
"Are you guys helping or not? If not, then leave me alone to deal with this. You do not need to add salt to the wound you know." Tai Lung snapped at Leo and Vikki.
"Why I'd never," Vikki glanced away. "Humph, go do it yourself. I'm not going to interfere in this mindless argument of males anymore." with that said, she vanishes into the shadows.
Tai Lung looked at Leo, "Well?"
Silence fell for what felt like hours but was actually a few seconds.
Leo broke the silence, "Very well but you have to promise that you have to finish what you started earlier at the snow mountain."
Tai Lung gave a shocked expression and growled. He hesitated for a while but eventually gave in. "Fine."
"The arcana hath spoken. Your journey shall begin. The arcane that hath chosest, is the arcana that brings you power. Remember that, Tai Lung. Kung Fu is part of what you are living but your way of life is still determined by the arcana."
Immediately, Leo snapped his fingers and time unfroze and returned back to normal.
"Wait! What about –"before Tai Lung could finish his sentence, Po had already finished his.
"- dosh"
Bright light fills the air with golden dust and everything surrounding them were blown away with such force that the woks and pans were flung high up in the sky. Once the dust has settled, there stood two figures in the mist.
Po looking at Tai Lung straight in the eyes and finally, he burst out laughing.
"Bwahaha..haha….Oh, boy. Haha…hehe…you should have seen the look on that cute face of your's." Po said wiping tears out of his eyes.
"What…just….happen….?" Tai Lung was so confused and yet some what angry.
"It's nothing." replied the panda.
"What?"
"I tricked you. I didn't figure it out at all. Just wanted to fool around and see how you'll react and it was priceless."
The angry snow leopard was filled back with rage, "Stop mocking me!" and Tai Lung fling a kick onto Po's stomach but was backfired by his own force because of Po's fat physique.
"Enough!" a voice boomed and in an instant, Tai Lung disappeared leaving a trail of dust behind.
"Cough…cough… Hey, huh? Tai Lung? Hey kitty! Where are you!" Po screamed but no answer was given.
