Chapter 1: Shooting Star

As nightfall rises, Oak Sung, Musaki, Okinawa and Zeke are laying on the ground in Oak's backyard, just to do a little bit of star gazing together and for Oak, it was one of those amazing moments they can have as a family and it counts as a family tradition that spans back years and Oak looked at his grandsons and they look like they're enjoying every minute of it.

"So...when do we see those shooting stars, grandpa?" asked Zeke.

Oak chuckled softly at this and he replied, "Very soon, Zeke. It says that those kinds of shooting stars come by every 500 years or so and it seems as though tonight's our lucky night."

"500 years? Am I glad I'm seeing it tonight." Musaki said, amazed.

Zeke agreed with that point as well and he couldn't imagine waiting another 500 years to see it and he said, "I'm glad I didn't have to wait this long for the next one."

"But lucky for us, it comes around Shanghai Secluded Valley once or twice a year. So...we don't wait that long." Oak added.

Okinawa chuckled softly at this and he said, "I wish the masters were here to see this. Then, they wouldn't have to wait 500 years to witness it too."

"They should. They need a huge amount of fun in their lives. Goodness knows, they need it. Especially Tigress." Musaki replied.

Okinawa looks up at Musaki and he assumed that he's always starting something with Tigress and asked, "Do you always say these things about Tigress?"

"They're jokes. I like to joke with her, even if she doesn't get it." Musaki answered.

Zeke chuckled softly at that remark and he said to Musaki, "Hasn't changed much, hasn't she?"

"Barely." Musaki answered.

Zeke looked at Musaki for a second and he said, "You gotta give me some updates on what happens at the Jade Palace every time you come back for a visit."

Musaki chcukled at that response and said, "No worries. I'll give you every single detail."

"Are you sure you're 18?" asked Okinawa.

Musaki glared at Okinawa after being asked that question and he asked, "Positive. You want proof?"

"Nah, I don't need proof." Okinawa answered.

Soon enough, Oak turned to all of the boys and he said to all of them, "All right, boys. That's enough."

Not long afterwards, they see the mounds of shooting stars flying across the sky and all four pandas were looking at it in deep astonishment as it passes through and Musaki has always wanted to see what a shooting star looks like in person, but not that many stars in one sky.

"It looks so beautiful." Zeke said, in awe.

"Yes, it is. Legend tells that if you see a shooting star, you make a wish." Oak Sung stated.

"I've heard of it before." Okinawa added.

Musaki started thinking about what his wish is and he already knew the wish by heart and he said to the others, "I think my wish has already come true...that we'd be together like this."

"I wished for the same thing too, Saki. I'm really glad I get to spend a lot of time with my family." Okinawa agreed.

Oak chuckled at this and as they were looking at the skies, he said to them, "Boys...the best is yet to come."


This is only the beginning!
