Hello ) I usually refrain from writing fanfics but ever since I saw the movie this idea has been burning in my head and I finally decided to give it a go.
And for the record yes I used my user id as a character Lucius is my rp character and has a history
HOWEVER Lucius is MY character and with a little luck will bring me lots of money someday (no joke) if you wish to use him as a character in one of your fics you must consult me first!!
that being said lets get started... oh yeah I i dont own kung fu panda nor any of the affiliated characters
"Oh come on you pathetic panda" Tigress cried in frustration as she stood a small ways up the path.
"Dang it just lemme rest for a while" replied Po as he struggled to maintain the pace that the feline master set. They had been traveling since early that morning and the hike had taken its toll on the overweight dragon warrior.
It had been three months since Po had defeated Tai lung and aside from some slight improvements in his kung fu Po hadn't changed much.
"If we don't hurry then the enemy will have gotten away" said Tigress as if she was talking to a three year old. "He probably already knows we're coming thanks to your clumsiness".
"Hey its not my fault if …" "If you fell on a pile of loose rocks and caused a landslide that took nearly half the mountain" the feline smugly asked.
Po sighed in resignation "ok I'm sorry but I don't think that there's anything to worry about, we don't even know that there is an enemy. I mean the report just said that there was a campfire in the cave at the top of the mountain and it scared a few villagers".
"The report said" tigress replied in annoyance "that there was a suspicious fire and that an armed figure was seen walking through the forest the following day. This figure could be the cause of the strange disappearances last week".
"Ya mean the family that disappeared without a trace?" inquired the large panda.
"Yes that family, as if there were two whole families that disappeared in the same…"
"but they just went fishing"
Tigress blinked "no, they disappeared"
"no, they went fishing" Po said " they came back this morning and said the urge to go on a family fishing trip just took them and they left without a word"
Tigress blinked again. "fishing?"
"Fishing" Po confirmed.
There was an awkward moment as tigress took in this information and then "well that doesn't mean that the enemy isn't dangerous"
Po sighed as Tigress called back to him to hurry his fat but up.
In truth Tigress was just as tired as Po was. They had indeed taken an early start and she was still bone-tired from her late-night training session the day before. However, there was no way in heaven or earth she would ever admit THAT to her monochromatic companion.
Cool blue eyes shone in the morning light as a grey wolf watched the progress of the large panda and much smaller tigress as they made their way up the mountain 'this ought to be interesting' he thought as he quietly followed the pair keeping to the ridgeline above them.
Po spent the rest of the trip pondering why tigress always had to be so pessimistic. None of the other masters were so suspicious all the time and they had been through just as much as she had. Po continued to follow tigress as he pondered the terrifying mind of the female cat.
Tigress quietly motioned Po to stay down. They had finally reached the ridge they were looking for and the mouth of the cave was just in sight. " i'll go first you wait thirty seconds then follow, got it?" asked Tigress.
"got it" came the reply of a very serious panda.
Without another word Tigress stalked to the mouth of the cave and slipped inside.
Po patiently began to count, however just as he neared ten a rather startled tigress flew out of the cave and slammed into a tree.
"WOAH" came the response from a terrified Po as the attacker revealed himself.
An unnaturally large and grizzled old wolf stepped into the light and took a fighting stance facing the two kung fu masters.
He had heavy armor that was stained crimson and wore a VERY large sword on his back. However that was not what caused Po to gulp in fear For it was at that moment that he noticed the skulls. Dozens of skulls were worn as a necklace around the giant wolf's neck and most of then were too small to belong to anyone but children.
"uhhhh… who the hell are you?" asked tigress as she recovered from her impact with the tree.
"who am I" replied the muscular wolf " I am the master of Nether, I am the wielder of hellfire, the slayer of hundreds, I AM LUCIUS THE…" It was at this moment that a younger and slimmer wolf flipped over the killer's head and planted a kick square between his eyes causing him to lose his balance and fall over backwards.
Landing nimbly beside tigress the younger wolf stood with his arms crossed and simply stated "poser".
Tigress took the opportunity to look over the new wolf. He was nearly a full head taller than her and well built wearing what appeared to be assassins' pants and a pain long sleeved warriors shirt with a single piece of leather armor over his left shoulder that looked like it was more there for show than protection. His fur was a light grey and his blue eyes shone in the morning sun .
"are you ok?" he asked her.
"I'm fine" replied tigress "but who are you?"
The young wolf stared at her for a moment before simply stating "Lu"
She took slight notice of the long katana he wore over his back seeming so natural with him that for a moment tigress wondered if he was born with it.
However she was interrupted from her musings when the larger wolf stood and drew his enormous blade. "hahaha… you must be a fool to try to beat me that easily. Have you not heard of me?! I am the slayer Lucius!!"
Lu's eyes narrowed and he said in a cool and calm voice "your not Lucius". he took a step towards the larger wolf and continued " your nothing but a sick sadistic bastard who kills children for fun"
"ENOUGH" shouted the larger wolf as he took a swing at Lu.
Tigress still hadn't moved from her spot by the tree. 'why can't I move' she thought ' I need to help him'.
However, it soon became apparent that Lu needed no help as he nimbly dodged the enormous blade and began a series of solid punches to the old wolf.
'how can he move so fast" wondered tigress 'he has got to be faster than viper'. she turned to look for Po and found him… eating popcorn??
Po it appeared was thoroughly enjoying the show and even cheered for Lu from time to time.
'why does he have to be so foolish' she wondered as her attention returned to the battle at hand.
The old wolf was swinging wildly trying desperately to kill the younger and more agile wolf. however it was becoming clearer by the second that he would not win.
The young wolf ,Lu as he called himself, was simply too fast and his numerous attacks took their toll on the old wolf.
"damned you" the old wolf snarled as he fell to one knee
"What's the matter" asked Lu "you finally realizing that its over?"
"YOU WILL DIE!!" shouted the old wolf as he lunged on top of Lu.
Tigress gasped as the smaller wolf was crushed under the enormous frame of the old wolf's body.
For a moment everything was frozen and then a dull thud was heard and the old wolf flew into the air.
Tigress was stunned as she saw the young wolf recover from the seemingly impossible kick he had just delivered.
"woah! That was awesome!" cried Po from his seat by the cave entrance
However, Lu took no note of Po's praise as he leaped into the air and slammed his leg into the old wolf's side crushing the ribs underneath. The now defeated wolf fell heavily on the ground as Lu landed nimbly next to him.
"amazing" whispered Tigress.
Lu shot a glance at her and then turned back to the fallen warmonger.
'wait' thought Tigress 'his eyes' she then realized that his once blue eyes were now fiery red.
Tigress stood and looked around for Po who was… popping more popcorn??
Lu looked down at the old murderer and calmly stated "time to start talking".
there you have it! I know that theres not much back story but all will soon be revealed. cookies if you can guess who Lu really is. cmon its impossibly obvious. review please!!
