I DO NOT OWN KUNG FU PANDA!

(Jade Palace: Training Hall)

"Po!" Tigress screamed. "You knock me into the ground one more time-"

"Oh! What are you gonna do about it?" Po smirked.

Tigress opened her mouth to speak, only for Po to perfectly kick the wooden block she was holding. Tigress had been holding wooden blocks for Po so he could kick and break them, but he ended up knocking her out (by hitting her in the face) every time.

"Finally, I don't think I'm gonna do this with you again Po." Tigress said rubbing her face, but smiling a little.

"Well, who else am I gonna spar with?" Po said as he clicked his fingers in a celebration kind of way. "And you said it couldn't be done!"

"Ha! That was only when you kicked me in the face three times. But ok. You did it."

(Outside Training Hall)

An arrow comes flying towards the Jade Palace and Monkey catches it in mid-air. (Like in KFP 3) He noticed that there was a message attached to it.

"I can't really tell where this is from." Monkey said as he handed the arrow to Master Shifu who was meditating there.

"It says here it's for Tigress. From…. What!?" Shifu's eyes went wide as saucers as he read the name of the person who wrote the letter. "What is it Master? From who is it?" Viper asked. The rest of the five too saw who wrote the letter. Viper: "OH. MY. GOD! Tigress!"

Tigress and Po came running out.

Tigress: Yes Master!

Shifu handed the letter to her. "Letter…. For you."

Monkey: "And you're not gonna believe who it's from."

Tigress unrolled the letter and read it out loud. It went-

Dear Tigress,

I know you'll be very surprised, hearing from me after such a long time. But I am having some trouble in my village. I cannot explain it here. I know what you will think on reading this. Why would an all-powerful being like me ask you for help? Because you are my friend and I believe in you extremely. I can think of no one else who can help me save my village. Besides, I really want to meet that new friend of yours, the Dragon Warrior, the Panda called Po, who I heard fell out of the sky like a ball of Fire. That was quite impressive, I must say.

Anyways, I am on my way to the Jade Palace now. I should be there soon.

Love,

Amoly

By the time Tigress read the name, Amoly, she was completely bewildered. She, the rest and the five and Shifu, were indeed surprised to hear from her after so long.

"She seems to know about me." Po said as he broke the silence. "Who is this Amoly? How come I don't know her?"

Viper: "It's kind of a long story."

Po: "No lack of time."

"Let me tell you Po." Tigress said staring at the letter. "Amoly was our friend who lived in the Jade Palace, way before you came along. Her story goes to 15 years ago. She was Oogway's student."

"Oogway had students before he came to the Jade Palace?" Po asked.

Tigress: "Yes. Don't interrupt!"

Po: "My bad. OK continue."

(A/N: Guys, while reading the story you can imagine a sort of flashback. And Amy is Amoly's nickname. And just so you know, she is a female turtle.)

Tigress: Amoly was a girl from the village where Oogway came from. The village of turtles. Legend says that the turtles have supreme powers in many arts. Kung Fu was Oogway's specialty. Amoly's father, Master Arikey, was a feared, but also a very kind wizard. He used his powers in the best possible ways….with often a couple of accidents. But for generations it was only the men of the village who were given training to fight and be wizards. The women were taught to be graceful ladies. Until Amoly came along. Her mother died giving birth to her. But her last wish was to let her daughter be the best she could be. When she was born, Oogway saw that she was more magical than any other girl in the village, and saw that she was destinied, not to be a lady, but a warrior. She was an extremely strong girl. When Oogway explained this to her father, he was pleased. He felt happy about the fact that his daughter could be a warrior and he and Oogway began to train her when she was three years old. And little Amoly was enthusiastic about it. But there was a problem. The supreme Lady of the village, Lady Ramona, was dead against the subject. She wanted her village girl to be just like any other girl, a graceful lady. So watching her excel in battle arts only infuriated her. Until one day. It happened that it was Amoly's fifteenth birthday. Oogway was already at the Jade Palace at this point, but he often came to his village. He came on her birthday, and was pleased to see what she had become. She had perfected her magical powers, of nature and music. And she was a warrior, unlike anyone he ever knew. On that day, he gave her a necklace. A beautiful, star shaped one, which shone as bright as one. She did not know the meaning of the necklace. But apparently her father and the Lady Ramona did. Her father was overjoyed to see what his dear daughter had become. But to Ramona…. To her, this was the last straw. She never wanted her to be a warrior, she wanted a Lady! Even Amy didn't know why, but the night after her birthday, the Lady tried to kill her. Master Arikey tried to stop her, but the Lady Ramona's inner dark magic showed. Master Arikey told Amy to run away and not look back, but when she did look back, she saw Ramona kill her father. Amy escaped, and ended up here, in the Valley of Peace. We found her there, weak of hunger after running for a week. We saved her from the bandits, and brought her to the Palace, where Oogway and her knew each other immediately. We befriended Amy and told her she was welcome to stay for as long as she needed. Oogway eventually told her about the necklace he gave her. It meant that she would be the next leader of the village. Amy was a delightful girl. She sang for us and spoke of the beauty of nature and plants and flowers beyond our wildest dreams. She used to train in the Palace too, and was a great warrior, but she wished to be kept a secret. So you Po, and the rest of the villagers never knew she was here. For seven years she lived here, until her lover, Mikey by name, came here to take her back.

(End of flashback)

Tigress: She told us how much she lost when she left her village. Her father, her friends, her lover and her Master Yoshi.

(Master Yoshi was another master in the village and a friend of Amoly's father. He also trained her when Oogway left for the Jade Palace shortly after her training began. Master Yoshi was also the father of Mikey and his three elder brothers. Master Yoshi had been killed by his enemy a year before Amy's fifteenth birthday.)

Po had been listening to every word of the story with rapt attention since Tigress began.

Tigress looked at Amoly's letter again. "After Mikey took her away, in a few weeks we received her letter which said that she was now the leader of her village and she would never forget how good friends we were to her." Tigress smiled. "And now she's coming back. I can't wait to see her!"

Po: Well, so we better make arrangements if such an old friend of yours is coming back!

Well guys! That was it for the first chapter. Hope you like it! Don't forget to give reviews!
