Hey guys! I am FINALLY back to writing fanfiction, and I have decided to rewrite this story from scratch! I have deleted the old version from my profile. I'll be trying to update this every two days ok? Right, onto the story.

No one's POV

It was early afternoon in the Valley of Peace, and the furious five and Dragon warrior were training on the obstacle course. Master Shifu was in The Dragon Grotto meditating. It had been two months since the defeat of Lord Shen, and things had been quiet for the residents of the Jade palace.

Po was sparring with Tigress, neither one had yet gained the upper hand. Suddenly, there was a loud thud on the training hall's doors, distracting Po. Tigress saw the opportunity and delivered a blow to the panda, knocking him to the floor. Tigress extended a hand to Po to help him up, before turning her attention to the doors.

The noise had caused everyone to stop training, they were all watching the door. Crane was closest, so he was the one to open the door.

"Its only Zeng!" He called over his shoulder. Everyone relaxed at his words and went over to meet the goose.

"I have an urgent message for Master Shifu!" Zeng exclaimed, holding up a scroll
"He's in the Dragon Grotto." Viper said
"We'll make sure he gets it." Tigress said, taking the scroll from Zeng.
"Thankyou Master Tigress." Zeng said before flying away.
"I guess someone should go get Master Shifu." Po said.
"Good idea." Said Monkey, before everyone turned to look at Po.
"Ok, I'm going." Po said, running off to the Dragon Grotto.

He returned with Master Shifu minutes later, who grabbed the scroll and began reading. His expression was unreadable the whole time he was reading.

"The Emeperor of the imperial city is dead." There was a collective gasp from the six warriors. Master Shifu handed the scroll to them, and they began reading.

To the warriors of the Jade Palace
The imperial city has been invaded and taken over. The emperor is dead. The attack is being lead by two wolves named Tao and Fang. The royal family has gone into hiding, and there is no hope of defeating this army. There is talk that she plans to take over all of China. Please do not let there be any more bloodshed. We beg of you, help us.

"Woah." Po said, having read the letter
"We leave at dawn, training is over." Master Shifu said, leaving the training hall.

The six warriors each went to their respective rooms, packing their things for the trip. When Tigress had finihed packing, she lay down on her bed to rest. The others would be going to eat soon, but Tigress would not join them. Tigress would need her rest for the journey she would make that night.

~That night~

The night was cold, the air bitter. The ground was covered in a thick blanket of snow, and wind blew through the trees. Anyone who went out would be called crazy, but that didn't stop one from trying.

Tigress ran through the forests and mountains that led to her destination. Her progress was slowed by the snow that seemed to cover everything in sight, giving the forest a ghostly glow in the moonlight. Tigress herself would have been easy to spot, a red blur contrasting to the stark white snow.

Tigress never liked the snow, she didn't understand how anyone could bear to live somewhere it snowed all year. She'd taken this journey many times, and still she had little tolerance for the snow. It sprung up where her paws landed, getting caught in her fur and melting when it came in contact with her warm skin. Every journey through the snow left her soaked and chilled to the bone.

There was little time left to worry about that now, Tigress would soon reach her destination. She wondered for a moment if she was expected, but the thought was banished from her mind. Tigress was always expected.

Tigress finally saw her destination, an impressive two-storey house hidden by the mountains. As she came closer she saw there were lights on downstairs, meaning someone was waiting for her

. The door opened just as Tigress stopped running, revealing a tigress similar in appearance to Tigress. However this Tigress had white fur and spots across the back of her arms and head, and her eyes were silver.

"Mother's been expecting you, she's in the front room." She stated
"Thankyou Chou."

Chou bowed and left Tigress, walking up a staircase at the back of the entrance hall. Tigress walked through a doorway into a small room. On one wall was a lit fireplace, the source of the light Tigress had seen. In front of it, meditating, sat another tigress with pure white fur. She to was almost identical to Tigress, but unlike Chou she was older.

"Tigress." She said, not turning away from the fire.
"Xue." Tigress replied
"You've heard." It wasn't a question, Xue already knew.
"You must stop her. You succeeded last time, you defeated Fang once."
"Things are different now. She is stronger." Xue stated plainly "My strength alone will not be enough."
"What must we do?" Tigress asked
"You must go to the Imperial city as planned. I will make my own way."
"Is this going to work?"
"I do not know. But you must go, or someone will discover your absense."
"Goodbye Xue." Tigress said, bowing
"Goodbye Tigress."

As Tigress left, Xue still sat by the fire, staring into the flames. Xue knew the flames could show the future, but they were too unpredictable. Xue prefered to take her knowledge from the snow. The snow was as much a part of Xue as her own thoughts, it was the source of her power.

"Is she gone?" A male voice spoke from the doorway.
"Yes. We're leaving at dawn."
"And Chou?" He asked
"She not coming. Chou's our daughter, I can't take care of her in battle."
"You need to sleep."
"I will be there in a moment."

Xue didn't move until she was alone again. When she was, Xue stood and moved over to the window. Snow was falling gently outside, but when Xue looked she saw something more sinister. The journey would bring buried secrets to light and reignite old fueds.

"I cannot protect you this time Tigress. I cannot know how this journey will end, all I can say is good luck, sister."
