Hey! Well here's a new story TiPostorymaker asked me to do, a friend helped me with this one, so if it has more humor and a different style, you know why.
Anyway, hope you enjoy it!
Chapter 1
"Aauuuughh!" Po's screamed followed, after the sound of the sickening crack of bones snapping. 'There goes my leg,' Po thought. Po tried to quickly get up without the help of his right leg, but fell again on his back. The enemy smirked at how helpless Po looked and pulled back his hammer above his head aiming to crash it on his left arm. The hammer glistened a little from the sunlight making it look more deadly than Po wanted it to be. The enemy's smirk turned into a dark sadistic grin and finally pulled the hammer down at fast forces. Po grimaced as he saw the hammer come crashing down on him in slow motion… 'goodbye left arm…'
Few hours earlier… Po and Tigress were in the training hall, obviously training and practicing new techniques.
A low rumbling sound bellowed and Tigress with her sharp ears, was alarmed by it.
"What was that?" Tigress said, stopping her attacks on the training dummy.
"Oh sorry that was just my stomach I'm a bit hungry now."
Tigress sighed already knowing who that voice belonged to but turned anyway. The sight of a certain panda was before her, it was Po.
"It sounded like something died in there," Tigress said bluntly.
"Hey, it's not my fault my stomach likes to express itself differently to signal its hunger," Po said.
"And I assume it's not your fault that you consumed our whole stock of food in our kitchen, which was gone in one day."
"…Well…Oh! Right it's Monkey's fault!"
"How? When you were the one who practically inhaled all of them."
What Tigress said was actually quite literal. On this very certain day Po decided that he was super hungry-no, starving to the point he was on the edge of death so when he came into the kitchen to join dinner with the rest of the five, he stole all the food they were going to eat and shoved it in his mouth and swallowed it whole. According to Po's logic, if he doesn't eat quickly he'll die of starvation and swallowing was the fastest way to get food in his stomach. He kept scavenging around the kitchen and every time he found something edible he'll, how Tigress describes it, "inhale the food". Swallow after, after swallow he didn't look like he would stop until, he finally ate everything. Tigress, Monkey, Master Shifu, Crane, Snake, Mantis….Yeah they were all shocked as they stared at Po, who was now, well, lying on the ground, resting since he ate his fill. It was silent for a moment until Tigress got up and slapped Po to wake up like there was no tomorrow and... you can guess the rest.
"Wellll, you see it was Monkey's fault because," Po began (warning: we're going to use Po logic) "he-"
All of a sudden the doors to the entrance of the training grounds burst open. (Just kidding you think I was going to explain the process of Po logic? Like I know what goes in our charming panda's head)
"Master Shifu!" Tigress and Po yelled together.
"There are bulls attacking the village, I already sent the others. GO!"
Tigress and Po both leaped and ran towards the village. Po was staring at Tigress for a while watching her agile form leap from house to house gracefully.
'She looks like she's flying,' Po thought.
Tigress then took notice how Po was slowing down a bit as if he came to a certain realization.
"Hey…Po, what's wrong?" Tigress said as she slowed down to where Po was at. Po looked up at Tigress's eyes as if contemplating something. Tigress noticed how the sunlight light up some of Po's features in contrast to the dark shadows on his face. 'He actually kind of looks ha-'
"Tigress, I…," Po began. Tigress had no idea why but she felt kind of excited as if she's hoping he would say something she always wanted to hear. "I just remembered I'm hungry and I didn't get something to eat anything…"
…
…
…
"You…," Tigress said, "GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" She started smacking Po non-stop with irritation.
"Hey,hey,hey,hey, I'M NOT THE ENEMY!" Po yelled while getting smacked across the cheeks by a certain tiger. Tigress soon finished her fury of smacks and turned to get ready to soar away.
"Come on, you need to focus, worry about your stomach later we got to go"
"Yes, mam."
Tigress leaped, flipped and dashed towards the battlefield along with Po, who was more serious now about this fight. Once they made it, they noticed the other four fighting the bulls already and so they split up to deal with different enemy bulls. Crane was having a hard time dealing with this one bull, but then he managed to get the upper hand and just when he was going to finish the bull off another came up from behind, a hammer was coming down about to smash the brains out of him. Luckily for Crane, Po made a mad dash and pushed himself on to Crane, successfully pushing them both out of the way. The hammer smashed right through the ground creating a five inch dent into the ground.
"Oh snap… I owe you one Po," Crane said.
"No probs," Po said and then he turned towards the bull who dared tried to hurt his friend. The said bull lift up his hammer ready to strike again, irritated that he missed his target. Now that Po had a better view at the bull, he noticed the bull had a superior feel and even his looks were distinct. A scar was cut from his forehead through his left eye to his chin and he had a golden ring going through his nostrils. Even his horns were one of a kind, they were all corny and had stains of blood, (most likely) in them, causing Po to shiver at the sight of them.
'He's probably the leader,' Po concluded.
"Hey…" the leader bull began. "Which one of you is the Dragon Warrior?"
"That'd be me!" Po yelled making his way towards to the bull. "And who are you?"
"I'm Vadic,"Vadic then grinned menacingly at Po. "You're the fearsome Dragon Warrior that everyone is talking about? You got to be kidding me, you're just a panda." (Oooh snap dude, I definitely wouldn't say that if the KFP fans existed in this world)
"I don't understand why people (or animals), always say panda as if it's an insult I mean even that peacock I faced before was all like 'you're just a panda' and so did Tai Lung except he was more mean. He actually mentioned a my size, though I'm kind of used to it since Tigress mentions it…"
"A talkative one at that ."
Vadic started running towards Po with his hammer pulled back to the side of him ready to swing it and Po went into his fighting stance waiting for the right time to dodge and strike. That's how the battle began. For quite some time they both successfully kept dodging each other's attacks. Every time Po gave a kick it would be blocked by the giant hammer, every time Vadic gave a swing of his hammer it would be a total miss. No one was at an advantage or a disadvantage until…
"aauuuughh!"
Po made the mistake of looking away because he thought he might have heard Tigress scream and that cost him his right leg…
The hammer was coming down for his left arm so Po did his best to evade by rolling to the side. Luckily for Po, Vadic put all his power into that one shot so the hammer was stuck into the ground. Seeing this as his chance to escape and get help, Po shakily got up. He tried to limp his way away from the enemy but Vadic noticed his attempt to escape and decided to leave his hammer and charged at Po with his horns.
'I knew it was too good to be true, that i had hope of escaping…'Po thought grimacing. He clumsily dodged the charge and fell again. 'If I keep falling I will be getting nowhere!'
"Hey, stupid panda quit dodging and accept your faith!" Vadic said walking towards him. "You're only extending the inevitable!" Vadic ran as fast as lightning speed and went behind Po.
"You were this fast!" Po said exasperated.
"Yeah it was just that my hammer was weighing me down" Vadic had Po's arm bent on his back. "I'm going to break your arm." And just after he said that another sickening snap echoed Po's ear and he just couldn't take the sound and pain.
"GAAAHHHHH"
Somewhere else on the battlefield….
"…Po?" Tigress whispered after she dodged two bulls that collided with each other knocking each other out. 'Was that…him?' Tigress hurried her steps to the direction of the scream. 'Hopefully he's not….no that can't happen, he's Po. He's extraordinary and I still have so many things to tell him.' As Tigress's thoughts raced so did her speed. 'No…it's actually only one thing…I just need to tell him one thing!' Once her final thoughts were finished she dashed to a speed she didn't she was capable of doing.
Back to Po….
Po was in a bit of a shock that his left arm was broken now, I mean how he can do his fist of fury now!? Well, he uses his right arm for that but the point being was he couldn't use kung fu with that arm and his right leg. Po could only just sit there while Vadic went to go retrieve his hammer to finish the job. vadic yanked the hammer out of the ground and couldn't believe his luck. His prey was just sitting there, waiting for his death and not putting up a fight… Even though it's a little disappointing the panda was not putting up a fight, not making this challenging for him, it made his job easier.
"I'm a little disappointed that this is all you can do even though you were good in the beginning since you were able to dodge my hammer and especially my charge when your leg was injured at the time." Vadic said with his hammer dragging behind. His hammer was again gleaming with light even though it had a dark purpose, its purpose was to kill. Vadic smirked, "Well this is your end, and it was nice knowing you." the hammer rose high covering the sun from shining on Po's face and instead shadowed it. "Not."
A flash of orange filled Po's vision instead of the gray color of the hammer that he was expecting.
"Wha?" Po said just sitting there in shock.
"Po!"
Po turned his head to the source of the cry of his name.
"Tigress!"The said tiger apparently was running towards him.
"How-you-wait-what? I'm so confused right now, not sure which question I should ask," Po said still looking shocked as ever and of course was still in pain from the two broken parts of his body.
"I leaped towards him on his side unbalancing him and so he fell over. I got the others to come help" Tigress quickly explained lifting Po up careful not to put Po in pain. The four were coming towards them and beating up bulls along the way.
"uuggghh" Vadic said touching his head. He noticed how the Dragon warrior now had his buddies over and he knew he's not capable of fending all of them off at the same time and his subordinates don't exactly have the most reliable fighting skills since they were only decent. "Everyone retreat!" All the bulls went to their escape routes they made but before they were all gone Vadic yelled "Don't think this is over yet!" And just like that they all disappeared and the only evidence that showed they came was the mess the bulls created. Everything was actually peaceful for a moment until…
"Tigress I think I'm seeing the light…"
" . Playing. Around."
"Oh is that my grandma on the boat? I think she's telling me to come with her across the river!"
"What are you saying?! Last time I checked you never even seen your grandma and don't you dare cross that river!"
"Awww I didn't know you cared about me that much." Po said, giving her a smile.
"…You mess around to the very end… Once we get to the stairs I'm going to drop you to the hard ground."
"Wait, wait I'm an injured person you can't do that! Please, Tigress I'm sorry, don't do that. I can't get by stairs with both of my legs so I'm pretty sure I'll die if I try only using one leg!"
Tigress chuckled, still.. she was pretty serious about it. She helped him get inside, wrapping one arm him. They both started to climb the stairs, the rest climbing faster in order to get Po medical attention.
Po and Tigress were in a way, hugging each other... but neither of them were uncomfortable, on the other hand, they were secretly wishing they never reached the top of the stairs.
Ok, well, here's the first chapter, I hope you like it and review! I will update soon!
