Chapter one: Returning to the Jade Palace

Six months had past since, Leon and Shadow left the Jade Palace. It was just another day, in the Valley of Peace. But this one was different. Because Tigress received a letter from some good friends.

"Everyone! Look what I got" Tigress yelled, as she ran into the Training Hall.

Master Shifu called them to a halt and everyone ran other to the excited Tiger. They hadn't seen her this excited in a long time!

"Well? What is it?" Po asked.

"Yes! What do you have, Tigress?" Shifu asked, walking over to her.

"It's a letter! From Shadow and Leon!" Tigress said happily.

"Well... what are you waiting for? Read it" Viper said. Tigress nodded her head and tried to regain her composure.

"Alright! 'Dear Friends... how are you? Leon and I are doing just fine! We were able to find all of our friends and they joined us in restoring the valley! We miss you all very much! And can't wait to see you. Speaking of which! We will be returning to the Jade Palace in about three months! We can not wait to see you all! Leon says hello! He would have written to you as well. But he's busy right now. And I am afraid I must go too. I'm starting a school for the younger cubs! We can't wait to see you all. And I'm very sorry that we haven't written to you all, until now. We just got the messengers to stop by here! But we will see you all very soon. And are looking forward to it! Your loving friends... ~Shadow and Leon'!" Tigress said, finishing the letter.

"I'm so glad their coming home!" Viper cried out, happily.

"Yeah! Hey! We should have a party!" Po said excitedly. He began to hop up and down.

"Panda... their not coming back for three more months!" Shifu said. Though if you looked hard. You could see a smile crossing his face.

Po frowned at that remark and started to whimper.

"*sigh* All right. You can have a party!" Shifu said. Po grinned. Then Shifu turned to glare at the Panda and said, "Just keep it down!"

"YES! Party time!" Po said. Then he started to dance around the room

.Tigress smiled to herself. It would be so good to see them again.

*Later that day*

Po and the Furious Five finished up their party and were cleaning up from it. Then they heard Shifu yelling.

"TIGRESS!"

"Wow! He sound's mad!" Mantis said.

"Yeah! What did ya do, Tigress?" Monkey asked.

Tigress just shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Guess I'll go see what he wants!"

Though Tigress knew what Shifu wanted.

Tigress ran out of the Training Hall and down to the lake. She looked around and saw Master Shifu, sitting beside the lake.

"Master Shifu!" Tigress said, bowing to him in a fist-to-palm style.

"Tigress. It's just you and me now!" Shifu said.

Tigress smiled and asked, "What are we going to do today, father*?"

"I thought, that today we would just sit and mediate." Shifu explained.

Tigress smiled and sat down, cross legged, next to him.

The day slowly drifted away, until it was time for dinner.

"Thank you, father. For the wonderful time!" Tigress said, bowing to her adoubted father.

"No... thank you!" Shifu said, bowing as well. Then they turned and walked to the Jade Palace.

The days slowly turned into weeks. And the weeks slowly turned into months. Until finally, the day came for Leon and Shadow to return to the Jade Palace.

They both packed very little. For they knew if they packed light they could move quicker. Which meant they would see their friends faster.

Leon walked through the village. He waved to his friends as he past them.

'I hope that, Shadow is up to making the trip! I hate it, that she hasn't been feeling well lately!' Leon thought, as he walked along.

He saw their hut up ahead and walked in. He smiled when he saw, Shadow. She was laying on her back, fast asleep in bed. She was smiling, just a little. He walked over and sat down on the bed, next to her. He sat there and watched the steady rise and fall of her chest. He chuckled, then he gently ran his paw along her face. Shadow eyes slowly opened. She looked over and smiled at, Leon.

"Hey, sweetie! How are you feeling? Are you still nauseous?" Leon asked, quietly

"Hmm. A little. But that nap sure helped!" Shadow replied.

"You think you're up to making the trip?"
"I've waited so long to see them, Leon. I'm going to make it!" Shadow said.

Leon smiled. He loved that stubborn streak she had.

"Well, I'm ready when you are, Hon!" Leon said. Shadow smiled and nodded.

Then Leon got up and walked to her side of the bed. She slowly placed her feet on the floor and Leon helped her up. She smiled and kissed his cheek.

"I'll be ready soon. Just give me a minute." Shadow said.

Leon nodded his head his head and walked out.

Shadow walked over to the dresser and looked in the mirror. She could see faint scars along the side of her face. She remembered how she got those. Then she began to tremble.

'Oh, come on!' she thought 'I don't need this now!'

But after she thought that, her trembling stopped. She sighed in relief. She also remembered how she got that too! Then after another moment, she walked outside. With her bag slung over her shoulder.

"Good bye!" They both called, as they left the valley.

"I'm going to miss that place..." Leon said sadly. Shadow smiled at him.

"Well... we could always visit!" Shadow suggested.

Leon smiled. "You're always thinking!" he said, as he wrapped his arm around her waist and gave her a hug.

They walked on for what seemed to be forever. When they finally made to the Valley of Peace.

"We made it!" Shadow said happily, as they walked into town.

"Eh! That was nothing!" Leon teased her.

Shadow glared at him, playfully. Then they continued into town.

They were about half way to the Jade Palace, when Shadow suddenly stopped. One paw flew to her stomach.

"Shadow? What's wrong?" Leon asked. He was becoming very worried.

"I think that we need to get to the Jade Palace. Right now!" Shadow said. She began to pant heavily.

"Why?" Leon asked.

Shadow looked up at him, smiling and replied, "It's time..."

Leon looked at her for a moment. Then a broad smile crossed his face. He nodded his head, and wrapped his arms around her and helped her to the Jade Palace.

When they reached the bottom of the stairs. Shadow was very tired and out of breath.

"I can't... make it up those!" Shadow said, through her pants.

"Just hang on!" Leon said. Shadow nodded.

Then Leon bent down and Shadow leaned on him. He hooked one arm under the back of her knees and the other around her back. Then he lifted her off her feet and into his arms. She leaned her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes. She was hurting badly. He made sure he had a tight grip on her, then he ran up the steps, that lead to the palace.

They finally made it to the top and into the Palace. Leon looked around, hoping to see someone who could help. And that's when he saw Shifu walking past.

"Master Shifu!" Leon yelled.

"Leon! Shadow! We didn't think- What's going on?" Shifu asked, when he saw Leon holding Shadow, tightly in his arms. The Master could see she was hurting.

"AH! Can we please save the family reunion for later?" Shadow asked. She gritted her teeth together, as another wave of pain washed over. She slowly and subconsciously rubbed a paw across her stomach, which was bulging out.

"What's wrong?" Shifu asked, walking over to them.

"Shifu! We need you to go and fetch a doctor! Quickly!" Leon said, as he headed for the bedrooms.

Shifu stared at him. Not understanding. "Why?"

Leon turned to him, smiled and replied happily, "Shadow's going to have a baby!"

Shifu stood there for a moment, staring at them. Then took off running, as fast as he could...
