Two years after Tai lung defeat the Valley seemed to have healed almost completely, a new romance was founded between a snake and birds as they found out that they cared deeply for one another. These two animal names were Viper, master of the elusive and fast snake style kung fu, and Crane, master of the elegant and beautiful crane style. Their relation relationship was near perfect they never got into huge fights they spend almost all their free time together going on date, having picnics and the like. Well it wasn't long before Crane finally decided to pop the question, and to no one's surprise Viper had agreed to marry Crane and spend the rest of their lives together, But we wouldn't have much of a story if that was all there was to it, You see Viper parents had gotten a message about their daughters marriage arrangement and want to meet the lucky man for themselves. Our story you see, picks up about two weeks after Crane proposed, at about four in the morning when Viper and Crane were sleeping together in their new luxuries bed made of purple silk that Master Shifu was so kind to give them for an early marriage gift. They decided to rent out the old room Viper sleep in to make some extra cash for an the old orphanage Tigress attended when she was a little girl, They now lived with a teenage male mountain cat named Lee, who couldn't tell the difference between a high kick and a round house, but that is unimportant. Viper like always when she sleep with Crane wrapped her body around him starting at his waist and working up, and Crane who would have been use to sleeping standing up, tucked his beak into his wing. This sleeping routine normally took them ten to fifteen minutes to get situated.

Crane opened his eyes to see a smiling Viper, Thirsty from the Training routine he endured today and not getting any special treatment from Master Shifu, well beside the nice bed. Crane decide to slowly inch his way out of Viper's love-grip and proceed in getting his water. Crane walked into the kitchen, dishes hung everywhere from the celebration earlier yesterday afternoon, and the early wedding gift that were left out on the table consisted of, weapons they will never really use from Tigress, a baby carriage for some odd reason from Monkey followed by, and poking of the fun at the gift and "When will you have a kid?" jokes from Mantis, and of course you had to bring a gift to get cake, so Lee brought two, what appeared to be used toothbrushes all he could make out that it was something small and used for scrubbing. Crane wondered whether or not he was being rude to their personal hygiene or just too lazy to find an actually gift. Decided the angst ridden teen was just lazy, he looked for something to put all the less then lovely gift in, But not before getting an few ounce cup and putting in under a tub of clean water, drinking all the water in one large gulp. Crane let out an Ah of refreshment as he proceeded to bag the items with a sack he found on a chair. After finishing up, Crane heard something shatter coming from his room, It couldn't have been Viper, She normally sleep though anything until nine or when the gong hit, and neither one was for hours. Crane ran through the paper door leading to his room ripping the thin paper as he roll do the ground grasping the intruder in a deadly choke hold.

"Its me!" Zeng yelled before almost passing out. Waking up in bad moods, and being a little cranky. The other members of the furious five burst through Cranes door enlarging the hole already made by Crane. All sporting there night time pajamas.

"Crane killed Zeng!" Monkey shouted as Mantis screamed like a girl at the horror.

"You just couldn't take there being another bird in the valley so you killed him." Po said playing detective, examining the body and poking Zeng's wings.

Viper finally awoke after hearing the girlish screech of Mantis. "Why are you all in my roo.... Oh my god theres a dead bird near my bed." Viper said in shock as she saw a Zeng who just wasn't moving as he should have been.

"I can explain. I thought he was a robber." Crane said in his defense. Pointing at Zeng repetitive as if it were helping his case.

"Crane, Honey." Viper told her fiancé. "Who would rob a palace guarded by the greatest warriors in China?" she ask as she was now fully aware of her situation.

"I thought he had a gun." Crane said quickly building he defense around he fear of rejection by his wife and friends, and of course he would never last a second in prison.

"Guns have yet to be discovered in this time period Crane." Tigress responded as she laugh at the birds attempt to cover up murder.

Cough Cough It was Zeng regaining consciousness, Crane let out the deepest sigh possible as the goose returned to his feet.

"All I was here to do was give Viper a letter!" Zeng shouted as he began to fly off out of the palace.

The five all gathered on the silk bed as Viper used her fang as a letter opener. Along with a letter a huge bundle of money dropped to the ground, Crane, Po,Tigress, Monkey, and Mantis had never seen so much money in their lives, All growing up without luxurious things, while to Viper the bundle of cash looked like pocket money.

"Guys, I'm going to read this..." Viper looked to the letter then to her friends and future husband who's eyes were firmly fixed of the bundle of money.

"GUYS!!!" Viper yelled gathering the attention of her comrades. She then went on to reading." Dear Viper and lucky man, We heard about you to and we want to see the lucky man for our selfs, I wanted to come visit you but your father insisted that we send for you, and that little amount we sent you should be enough for you and you boyfriend to ride first class accommodations. Hope to see you and your stud of a man soon. Love Mom." Viper looked up to see giggling faces from all of the Five with the exception of Tigress and Crane.

Viper picked up the bundle of money. "Well lets go." Crane said graping a sack for Viper to travel in, Viper seeing this stopped him in his tracks.

"Crane my parents are people of class if they see me traveling in a sack they will kill you." Viper said jumping up around Crane's waist ah he let out a sigh. "And besides." Viper kissed Crane on side of his beak. "Don't you want to ride first class, You haven't lived till you try lobster."

"Fine, I'll call the cab." Crane said flying off to find a cab service. The furious five seeing the show was over returned to their rooms to get some sleep.

After a few hours of packing brushing up, there was only one more thing to do, beg Shifu, who was training with Po out on the courtyard with a blow of dumplings, until he lets them go to visit Viper's parents.

"I would let you visit your parents." Viper said.

"My parents have been dead for fifteen years." Shifu said returning to train Po the old fashion way, By dangling food by his mouth to make him do push ups.

"Well... Don't make me give you cute eyes." Viper threatened as prepped up for the cute eyes stare.

"Viper, NO." Shifu pleaded but it was to late, Viper's eyes had gone all anime wide eyes and lips looked as if she was a crying baby. Shifu couldn't resist.

"Fine you may go." Shifu said, while Viper jumped for joy, slithering off the grab her packed things. Shifu let out a sigh as he returned to Po's training, But he noticed something odd the bowl of dumpling had vanished and so had Po, "That fat bastard." Shifu said as he walked off to find his dumplings.

Crane then pulled up the carriage to the bottom of the steps that led to the Jade Palace, Flying up the stairs he was greeted by a farewell group comprised of Monkey, Mantis, Po, and Tigress.

"See you next week." Crane said his temporal farewells to his friends. "And before I forget here are the keys to my room only get in there when you need to." Crane then handed Tigress his room key. Tigress and the remaining three all ran into Crane's room, and a few seconds later outside Crane heard something break.

"Their throwing a party in my room." Crane said before being pushed down the stairs and into the black first class carriage.

"Well here we go." Crane said as the snake driver whip the ten horses to move. Smiling at Viper who wrapped her tail around Cranes wing looking up smiling. Thus their journey began onwards to Mr. And Ms. Vipers mansion.
