Kung Fu Panda Fan fiction: The Pendant of Diànyuán

Me: Hey everyone in the world of fan fiction including the characters. I have always wondered what it would be like to be a part of the world that my favorite animated characters live in. With this fan fiction, I'm getting my chance. Now before we start, I want to introduce you to some characters we all know and love, Master Shifu and Master Tigress.

Shifu: Please no need for the formalities. Just call me Shifu.

Tigress: And you can call me Tigress. That's what all of my friends call me. Oh by the way, before I forget, sorry about not bringing Po. You know how he can't keep secrets for very long.

Me: Very true, Tigress. So would you like to tell our readers why you are here?

Tigress: Since it is part of the story do you really think it is wise to- (Po runs in out of breath)

Shifu: (muttered) For once, panda, I wish you were late.

Po: Hey guys (pant) Sorry I'm (pant) late. (Looks up) Has the story started yet?

Tigress: Well it will now. (glares at Po while Shifu sighs)

Me: Oh-Kay, then. Let's get started, but before I do, my little friend DISCLAIMER has something to say.

Po: WAIT!

Me, Shifu and Tigress: WHAT?!

Po: Can we watch the prologue since we-

Me: If you let me finish then (sigh) yes. You can watch the prologue.

Tigress: And to seal the deal, stay quiet and we will get you some bean buns afterwards.

Po: Yeah this is going to be awesome!

Me: Fine. (Everyone but Po sighs) Now as I was saying disclaimer please read the notes I gave you.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Kung Fu Panda movies or otherwise. If I did, then all of the movies would be out and the ending for the 6th one would already be done.

Me: Okay. BTW I will be using an American name that will be briefly translated in the first chapter. Afterwards it will stay American because it was hard to type. Now, on with the show.

Prologue: The Dreamer Who Dreamed Big


Karina's POV

"Stupid school, stupid team, stupid friends, stupid…EVERYTHING! Why is my whole world falling apart?"

I flopped on my bed feeling totally helpless and defeated. I had gotten detention, kicked off my after school dance team, and on top of all of that my friends just ditched me for the meanest girl in school! I hate this day. I just want to bite something. (True story about the biting. I used to want to bite someone when I got mad at them. But trust me. I'm over it.) I looked up and saw Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness on the TV. Screen. The furious five are just so amazing, and I can't forget about Master Shifu and the Dragon Warrior. "Sometimes, I wish I could leave this world and be an awesome animal Kung Fu master. I would be able to help them with missions and all kinds of stuff." I said with hope and disappointment in my eyes.

Then, I heard a knock at my bedroom door. "Come in," I said in a very depressed tone. No one came. Maybe they didn't hear me. My family and I have a very strict privacy policy, so whoever was there wouldn't come in without hearing my permission. "Come in." I said slightly louder. Still no one opened the door. "If you want something done right you have to do it yourself." I muttered to myself as I walked towards the door. As I opened the door, I heard something that sounded like wind chimes. Great. Now I'm hearing things. No one on this whole block owns wind chimes. When the door was finally open, I saw that no one was there. I looked up and down the hall to see whether someone was pranking me, but there was not a single sign that anyone else was even home. Come to think of it, I didn't hear the door to the house open. I was all alone, but who knocked on my door. That thought scared me a little, so I decided to close my door and watch TV. Good thing today was a Friday. I was about to close the door when I looked down and saw a package that had my name on it. I looked up and down the hall just to make sure this wasn't a prank.

When I was sure that I was alone, I closed the door and sat the package on the bed. I sat on my bed and used some scissors to cut the tape on the package. Then I opened up the flaps and saw…a note.

"Seriously? A note?" I said aloud in a confused way. I mean come on. No one uses a giant box just to put a letter in. Why didn't they just slip it under my door like a normal person? I was about to throw the letter in the trash, but my curiosity got the best of me. The writing was strange and hard to understand, but it was clear enough for me to read. It said:

Dear reader,

I have been watching you, and I know you want out of this life. I am willing to help you if you are willing to help me. In the box, you will find a pendant. Wear it and never take it off. I will ask more of you when you know who I am. I hope you are ready to get what you wish for. If you are willing to do this, you will not only help me, but you will help yourself. I will know whether you trust me or not, but I suggest you do for your own sake.

Sincerely,

The Guardian

That was weird. After I finished the letter, I looked back in its package t see if I missed something. I had. Lying at the bottom of the box was a beautiful purple pendant with a golden dragon wrapped around the crystal. I don't know why, but I felt like I had seen this before. I stuffed the letter in my pocket and put the pendant around my neck. It was dazzling. I mean it. The pendant started to glow. Before I could take it off, a blast of golden light blinded me. Then, everything went black.


Me: I hope you liked that folks. That's all for now.

Po: That prologue was-

Tigress: Let me guess, Po.

Shifu: I'm pretty sure we all know what you are thinking, panda.

Me: Say it with me guys.

All: That prologue was bodaciously awesome!

Po: You took the words right out of my mouth.

Tigress: If only we could, Po. If only we could. (Shifu chuckles slightly as he and Tigress leave)

Po: Yeah, like that's ever gonna- wait what did you just-

Me: (realizing where this is going) Like I said that is all the time we have. We will see you soon.

Po: Hey! You guys said if I stayed quiet you would get me bean buns, and you still haven't told me what that means, Tigress! (Runs out the building yelling while I sigh)
