Family Ties

Summary: Ichi has found someone from his mother's side of the family, but will it be a good reunion, or something else?

Chapter 1: The horrible truth

This story will be the presentation of my newest OC, but you'll here his name in the story. I do not own kung fu panda, just Ichi, Fu, and my newest OC.

Mystery POV

So this is it, the valley of peace. Rumor has it, a dog is living in the jade palace. He holds the power of fire, controlling people, and a death god. His skill is something that matches both the dragon warrior and the furious five, even master Shifu himself. My mission is to find this dog... and kill him. Once I finally reached the palace I found a messenger goose and asked "Excuse me, do you know where I can find master Shifu?"

"Huh, oh well I think he's in the training hall." The goose explained "Would you like me to take you to him?"

"Yes, that would be very nice." I answered

I followed the goose, for some reason he looked frantic about something, or maybe that's just him. When he opened the door he called "Master Shifu."

"Yes, what is it Zeng?" He asked

The stories were right about him, Shifu was a red panda; he was short, but I could tell that he was very skilled. The goose named Zeng said "Y-You have a visitor."

"A pleasure to meet you, may I ask why you're here?" Shifu asked

"I heard that there was a dog living here." I answered "A dog with salt and pepper fur, he has blue eyes and ears the size of... yours. I must see him."

"... Ichi, come here for a moment."

Ichi, that the name he goes by? When I saw him he was standing on the shoulders of the dragon warrior; he wore a black outfit with a black scarf that had a white skull symbol, and his pants had yellow crosses. He looked about my age, he smiled and asked "What is it, Shifu?"

"This young man wants to speak to you about something." Shifu answered

"Oh hello, how can I help you?" He asked

This is it, my mission begins now. "Prepare to die... Kageichi!"

I jumped at him with a kick but he dodged it and landed gracefully to the ground. It looks like I underestimated him a little.

"Whoa did you see that?"

Out of nowhere a girl appeared with a microphone in her hand; she looked exactly like Kageichi, but she wore a black and white gi instead of what he was wearing.

"This guy got major moves, did you see that kick he pulled off!" She announced "But Ichi dodged it like it was normal!"

I ignored her and charged again; I attacked with multiple punches but he just kept dodging, right when I think I got him he trips me and backs away. Each punch, each kick that I try to give him he just dodges and retaliates with his own. I gotta end this now, that's when I saw a spear beside me and thought it could be of good use.

"Uh oh, this guy has a spear, how will Ichi fight now?" The girl asked

"Master, what do we do?" Tigress asked

"Let Ichi take care of it." He answered

I launched every attack I knew with the spear but he still dodged it; but I knew that if I kept attacking him, he would slip up, that's when I make my move. There it is. "You're done!"

I hit him so hard that he flew straight in the air, he fell to the ground and I knew that I was victorious.

"No way, Ichi lost?" Mantis asked

"Now it's time... to end you're life." I said raising the spear

"Sorry, but you should watch what your doing." The girl insisted

What!? I didn't even know that over a dozen swords were circling my neck, ready to decapitate me; that's when I saw the boy in front of me, he pointed guns in front of me, ready to shoot at anytime. "Now then, are you going to tell me who you are?"

This guy isn't playing, I could tell that he was ready to kill me, just from looking at his eyes. I knew that if I continued, my life would end then and there. So I let go of the spear and he backed off as well, dispersing the swords that suddenly disappeared

"So, that was the power of the death god?" I asked

"Seriously, who are you?" He asked "Why did you call me Kageichi?"

"My name is Shiisaa, Shiisaa Faye Ling." I answered "Kageichi, is your real name."

"That's why Jubei called me that." He said, confused "Faye Ling, are you related to my mom?"

"Actually, she's my aunt." I answered

After I said that everyone looked freaked out, he stuttered "S-So that means...?"

"You're Ichi's cousin!?" Everyone exclaimed

"I guess I should explain."

Ichi's POV

I can't believe that this guy is my cousin. The guy wore a gold and emerald colored outfit, he had brown eyes, and had two earrings in his left ear. His fur was as silver as a newely made blade. Shifu asked "Aren't you going to tell us why you tried to kill my son?"

"Your son, so you adopted him?" Shiisaa asked "Very well, like I said before my name is Shiisaa Faye Ling, I am a member of the Faye Ling clan."

"The Faye Ling clan!?" Po exclaimed "I didn't know it was that kind of Faye Ling?"

"You heard about them panda?" Shifu asked

"Yeah, there like, one of the greatest clans in all of China!" Po explained "There supposed to have the strongest warriors ever!"

"Hey, is he a fanboy?" Shiisaa asked

"Pretty much." Fu said, laughing "I'm Fu by the way, I'm Ichi's twin sister."

"Nice to meet you." He greeted "Like I was saying, are strongest warrior was none other than Litchi Faye Ling."

My mom!? I knew she was a warrior but to be the best in her family, that's pretty impressive.

"One day she traveled across the sea to Japan and met someone." Shiisaa explained "It was a man who she fell deeply in love with."

"Reishin, my dad?" I asked

"Yeah, but the head of the clan didn't approve, to fall in love with a japanese commoner was unforgiveable." He continued "But she married him anyway and left the clan."

"It's so romantic, like Romeo & Juliet." Viper said, smiling

"Right, Viper likes romantic stuff." Monkey stuttered

"But even though she left, we were able to learn that she was pregnant." Shiisaa explained "That's when we knew that you were the black beast. The clan thought of you as an abomination, something that shouldn't even exist. So the head of the clan ordered, that when you were born... we would find and kill you."

W-What? All this time, I was sentenced to death ever since I was born?

"Why would they do that!?" Crane exclaimed

"The head didn't want to have a hybrid as a member of the family." Shiisaa answered "After I turned fifteen they even ordered me to find and kill you."

"I knew that people came to kill you, but I never knew that it was our own family." Fu said, shocked

"I'm going to leave for today, in three days I'll come back to fight again." He explained "I'm sorry, to tell the truth I actually wouldn't mind hanging out with you."

When he left I felt a searing pain in my heart; like I just reverted back into what I was before Shifu found me.

"Ichi, are you alright?" Shifu asked

I couldn't even answer him, the thought that my own family members would try to kill me is just to much to handle.

"Come on little bro, don't think about it so much." Po said, smiling "No matter what happens, we'll always..."

"Shut up, fatass!"

I can't believe I said that; I could see that everyone was shocked. "I'm sorry, could you guys leave me alone for a while?"

I couldn't stand to see anyone after that, I had to find a way to get these emotions out, so I went to the training hall to do a little sword practice. But everytime I thought about I got so filled with rage that I started destroying one of the wooden dummies, I kept hitting it like I was killing an enemy. There was nothing left of it, but I still felt mad. When I saw a shadow in front of me I turned to she Shifu, he looked as if he was worried, I realized that he was looking at my hands and when I looked at them I realized that my hands were bleeding, I clenched my sword so hard that my hands started to bleed.

"Are you alright?" He asked, worried

"I'm fine." I answered, faintly

"I know how your feeling inside, if you want you can tell me."

"Damn it!" I exclaimed "Why the hell did I have to be born!?"

"Ichi."

"If I wasn't born none of this would have happened." I explained "My parents wouldn't have died, and I wouldn't have my family members try to kill me! This is the worst day of my life!"

"I wish I could find a way to cheer you up, but with that situation it almost seems impossible." Shifu frowned

"It doesn't matter, I never cared about how people thought of me anyway." I explained "Why should I care about what people think about me, besides if I die it wouldn't matter to anyone."

"That's not true!" He shouted "Your the most important thing in this world to me, if anything happened to you I would never be able to forgive myself for not protecting you. You've given me so much, I could never let you go."

Those words made me so happy, I could feel the tears falling down my face; Shifu embraced me in a hug in hopes of comforting me, I wanted to hold him back but I was afraid of staining his robe with my blood.

"Come, let's fix those hands." He said, smiling

"Thank you." I said, tearfully
