Hey guys! I decided to start a series of KFP one-shots. This was a request from The Beast Devil. This is sort of a prequel to Dragon Artifacts, though that's just my opinion. Sorry Heir-to-the-throne! I didn't have time to send you this!
OOOOOOO
Po sat in his room, thinking. On normal days, he would be fantasizing about saving China, taking out the 10,000 demons. But today was not a normal day. Not because Shifu called a break in the middle of training, which was unusual on all levels, but because Po wasn't fantasizing about heroic deeds.
Why did it happen? How did it happen? He wondered. It baffled him so much. He had never imagined anything like this, much less expected it, but it had happened.
An interruption came, one that was highly welcome, "Hey Po, want to come down to lunch with us?" It was Tigress, and she was cheerful for once. It raised the panda's spirits somewhat, but not much.
"Sure," He stood up, and began to walk to the door. Tigress suddenly stopped him
"Is something wrong? You seem troubled." She frowned concernedly.
"I dunno, Tigress. Something happened during my fight with Tai Lung, and I don't know what it was."
"Tell me what it was."
He paused, weighing the options. Should he, or should he not tell her? She might tell Shifu, and the warrior didn't want that, "if I tell you, do you promise not to tell Shifu?"
"I promise." She said almost immediately, bowing.
It was Po's turn to frown, Why was she so willing to keep a secret from her master? The confusion quickly faded, and he began to tell his tale.
OOOOOOO
"That scroll is MINE!"
Tai Lung chased the panda, who was deftly creating obstacles for his opponent, only for the snow leopard to crash right through them. Po was unfazed, however, and threw an apron at the feline. It caught his feet, sending him into a tumble.
The panda continued on, smirking as the sounds of Tai Lung's pained grunts drifted over his shoulder. Suddenly, it was his turn to trip, as his foot hit a stray bowl and sent pain up his leg. He fell over, rolling about until he came to a stop
Tai Lung, having recovered from his entourage, was now upon the warrior, gloating over the dazed form of his enemy. A slimy grin crept onto his face as he reched out for the acroll in Po's hand.
Suddenly, Po felt energy rushing through his body, and a feeling of helplessness spread over him. He saw Tai Lung draw back, a confused expression replacing his triumphant one. Light filled Po's vision, but somehow it didn't blind him. He stood up, lifted his hands in front of him, and began to channel the energy. All this time, he was not in control at all.
Then, an explosion ripped through he village, a shockwave of power that appeared to pass right through all the buildings. Ecept for Tai Lung. At the moment the energy hit him, he was sent flying into another building.
At this point, Po regained control, and shielded his eyes form the light; it now seared his retinas like fire. When he brought his hand down, the snow leopard lay down in the rubble, unconscious.
OOOOOOO
"And then what happened?"
"I went over to him, poked him, and he got up and punched me in the gut."
"Anything else?"
"No."
Tigress sat there, staring at the panda before her. It baffled her on all levels; what happened? How did Po channel that energy? Who was controlling him? Then she finally said, "I agree with you. Now word to anyone about this to anyone."
"Yes." They both bowed to each other, then Po looked up, a grin on his face, "Now, how about that lunch you mentioned?"
"Yes! Last one there is a Mongol savage!" And the duo were off.
OOOOOOO
That's it! More is coming soon, so in between now and then, R&R please!
