Ch 1 The begging of the end

The light of the full moon was streaming though a small window landing on an old tortoise by the name Master Oogway. The aged turtle was tossing and turning sweat rolling down his brow Mumbling only one word "No...no...no...nooooo" Master Oogway shot straight up heart racing trying to catch his breath his eyes the picture of fear. Master Oogway walked to the window and looked up at the moon his thought wondering. "This can't be. I sealed them all away... I must meditate on this." With that master Oogway made his way down the Hall of Heroes the hall painted a bright jade but at night it seemed to be the color of the night sky. Weapons and armor of past masters lining the walls on both sides. Before Oogway made it to the giant jade doors with a giant dragon head, he started to have an increasing head pain. Oogway's eyes rolled to the back of his head but what he saw was more terrifying than the pain wrenched across Oogway's face. "The sky black lighting lighting up the sky. Buildings on fire, women and children screaming. A lone figure with a blade as long as he impaling three warriors Oogway will soon come to know as family. The figures eyes glowing a blood red his breathing heavy and barely visible in the chaos. The figure turned his head to the right to see Oogway's eyes wide in fear. Sliding the three warriors of the blade the figure turned to Oogway and charge. When the figure closed the gap Oogway could've sworn he felt the blade run him through." Oogway opened his eyes to the feeling of being shaked looking up the turtle saw a snow leopard in his twenties towering over him. Still trying to make sense of what happened Oogway didn't hear the leopard ask "Master Oogway are you alright? I found you on the floor I tried to wake you but when you weren't moving I had feared the worst." The turtle had not replied and the leopard was starting to worry. "Master?" Hear master the turtle looked up and put the best smile he could saying "I'm fine Tia Lung it seems old age as caught up with me." The Leopard wasn't buying it but let go. Tia Lung helped up the old master and watched him make his way down the steps heading to the one place were Oogway was most definitely to be found. Meditating under the sacred peach tree of heaven and wisdom.

The toned leopard had wanted to talk to the old turtle about a dream he just had and yet after seeing the old master in so much pain he decided not to and meditate at the foot of the moon pool under the dragon. That holds the one thing he had been training his entire life to achieve The Dragon Scrolls. In what seemed like seconds the sun started to rise over the mountains revealing a fog covered village. A young goose named Zeng got up early like he always does to ring the morning gong. After the goose had gotten dressed there was a light knock at the sliding paper door. When Zeng opened it he was surprised too see Oogway at the door. The goose smiled saying "Good morning master Oogway may I help you?" The tortoise smiled at the politeness of the goose and said "I have a message I want you to send to the Sacred Onyx Council." Oogway handed the goose a scroll with a blossoming peach tree on the seal. The Zeng took the scroll walking back into his room to grab his messengers bag. "It is crucial that you get that message to the council as fast as possible." said Oogway a hint of disturbance in his voice. Zeng turned around and bowed to the master saying "As soon as I ring the morning gong." The turtle quickly replied "Do not worry yourself with the gong right now. I need that message delivered quickly with no time to spare." The goose nodded in under standing and passed the old master taking off for a long flight to the capital of China. Oogway turned to watch Zeng fly off to the capital with one thought in mind I hope that my vision was wrong. Oogway turned to walk to the kitchen within the student barracks. His vision still fresh in mind.

Standing on top of the steps to the Hall of Heroes stood a red panda. The red panda stood there watching the lift over the beautiful valley that he has sworn to protect. Moments earlier he had found his son Tia Lung meditating at the moon pool but did not wish to disturb him. "Good morning master Shifu." shifu turned to see his son had finished his meditation and had greeted him so like every morning. Shifu smiled and replied "And a good morning to you." shifu saw the smile on tia lungs face but his eyes said something else like his student was disturbed by something. Shifu asked "Did you have trouble sleeping tia lung?" tia lung lost his smile "Yeah I guess you could put that way." this of course did not go unnoticed by shifu. Pushing the matter aside shifu said "Now that you are done meditating shall we go eat some breakfast before a hard day of training?" Though food was the last thing on tia lungs mind he nodded his head anyways.

In the country side of Russia...

The cries of pain being heard throughout the hall of a small house sitting in the plains of Russia. The night sky shining with stars and the moon. The air crisp and cool the grass swaying back in forth The silence being cut by one final shriek pain. Moments pass before the sound of child crying is heard. The first child born to the country side home. The child was wrapped in a blanket to keep warm listening to the humming of a soft and loving voice. The child opens its bright blue eyes to see a red she-wolf with brown eyes holding the child. The she-wolf held the child afraid that if she let go the life of the bundle would disappear. The she-wolf watched to cub drift to sleep.
