Author's Note: I wanted to add to the slash community with this cute fic of our loveable Panda Po and the grousing Leopard Tai Lung. I got the idea when I was watching it and a lightbulb went off in my head. Tai Lung is attracted to strength and who's strength to him- Po is so here's a cute fluff/ humor fic.
Disclaimer: Nope I don't own.
Warning: Flames and cynical people shall be ignored or used as fuel to write even more...so try me. ^.^
Chapter one: Back to the Jade Palace.
In the shadows of China's tallest moutains the Valley's greatest enemy paced around letting his mind run rampid over his defeat. At first he had used harsh words to describe his rival such fat, foolish, repugnant, and other profanities, but as the days passed and his rage faded the harsh words became praises and respect became desire. Tai Lung was in love with the idea of strength, Po had beaten him making the Dragon warrior the epitome of the Martial Arts strength. Sweet sacred peach tree he wanted the strength to be coveted by his hands only. Enduring days of fasting and meditation he had come to a sort of inner peace with himself on what he wanted in his life. Usually the hero courted danger, but this time around the hero would he courted by danger. Satisfied withhis ideals Tai Lung made his way to the Vallley of peace to obtain a courting gift for the dragon warrior before continuing his journey to the Jade Palace to confront the spirited Panda.
" It's Tai Lung!" A pig man whispered spasticly as the snow leopard made his way from stand to stand looking ffor the perfect gift to win over the other male.
" Excuse me peasant, but I have a queston." Tai Lung groused as he looked at the variety of things he could get, he just didn't know what the Panda would like the most.
" Y-yes s-sir?" The goose woman squawked in fear.
" If I were trying to inpress a potential mate with a courting gift and say that mate was a panda, what would you get him?" The leopard asked hoping the feather brain wouldn't catch on and go goosey gabbing.
" Everyone knows panda's are fat and love to eat whatever they can get their chubby paws on." The goose vender sneered thinking of the rotund beings." A batch of almond cookies should be enough to appease the bear."
Not wanting to pick up on the rest of what the woman had to say about Po's species he threw here three gold coins and snatched the bag of baked goods steeling himself for the task of climbing the thousand stone steps to get to the gate of the Jade Palace. Being him he had no problem with his trip up the stone steps before backflipping over the high white wall only to land coming face to face with his ex-master.
" I thought you had learned your lesson when Po defeated you. That move should have destroyed you." The old red panda spoke heatedly.
" The panda only bent the first half of his finger making only part of my Chi expand and implode on me."
" Still too soft to be the Dragon Warrior." Shifu mumbled to himself at his newest students generosity.
" Shifu, I beg that you allow me back in to the Jade Palace." Tai Lung spoke in his most pleading voice.
The old Martial Arts master stared at his most prized pupil and only son.
" A trick Tai Lung?" The elder asked suspiciously.
" I-I wish to court one of the masters." Tai Lung growled embarassed at his weak, shy admittance.
" I believe if you prove your worth Master Tigress would consider you." Shifu thought aloud to the man he had created." Master Oogway would give youyour chance if he were still with us so in hopes as my master before me I will allow you to prove yourself once again to be worthy of being called a master. Be warned, if you turn again I will not allow the panda to be so generous."
" Thank you, Shifu." Grumbled the Leopard already irritated with acting humble.
" Your room is still where you left it. Use it if you're truly serious." The red panda called before flipping out of sight.
