A few hours later it was already dark and Tigress was guarding the jewel keeping an eye out for the bandit that's been coming every night for the past few days. MaSha and the rest of the Furious Five weren't there due to the recent reports of some bandits in the other side of the valley and she was left to guard the jewel. Tigress looked at the jewel once again to make sure it was still there in the box inside the safe. Once she saw that it was still there she closed it locking it. Once she turned around there was a hooded figure standing in front of her. Just looking at her.
"Who are you?" Tigress asked getting in a stance.
"I mean no harm." It said. It was male. "I'm a friend not an enemy" He said but unknown to her, since she can't see his face, it was Po the leader of the most wanted bandits in China and Europe. "I was sent here by the emperor" He lied.
"Really?" She asked getting suspicious. "How do I know you're not just some bandit that is trying to get to the jewel?" Po glared at her.
"Fine since that doesn't work" He said as he took out a dagger from inside his cloak. "I guess it'll be done the hard way." He said attacking her but Tigress quickly evaded him. Tigress defended herself as much as she could and soon started to fight back when he tried going for the jewel.
"You're not what I expected tiger" Po said as they fought and quickly stabbed her on the side. Tigress screamed from the pain. "You would make a great bandit too bad your one of the good guys." He said grabbing the jewel from the safe as Tigress laid on the ground trying to keep the blood from flowing. Po began to walk away but Tigress was smart enough to get in his way making him drop the jewel.
"NO!" They both yelled but someone caught it.
"MaSha!" Tigress said with a bit of pain.
"Tigress!" MaSha ran over to her with the jewel on her paw. "are you ok?"
"No! He's getting a way!" she yelled. MaSha turned around and saw Po getting away. She started to go after him but in mere seconds he had disappeared and he had token the jewel from her blindly.
*The next day*
"Did you see his face?" MaSha asked her.
"No I didn't" Tigress said getting up from her bed. "he kept his hood on"
"Did you get a name from him?" Mantis asked
"Oh yeah a bandit is going to give me his name while he's committing a crime" Tigress said sarcastically.
"Oh right…sorry." Mantis said sheepishly.
"That isn't enough information to capture him." Shifu said. "MaSha can you figure out at least who he is?"
"No I need more information. On what he looks like what kind of things he steals."
"Well we know he's after anything valuable." Monkey said.
"He did say that he was sent by the Emperor to check on the jewel" Tigress told her.
"Then he lies in order to commit the crime?" MaSha asked.
"My brother is a bandit" Monkey said. "Whenever he tries to steal something, when there's a guard, he lies to be able to get past them. It usually works depending on how dumb the guard is." He added as they all looked at him. "What?"
"Your brother is a bandit?" Mantis asked.
"Yeah he is a bandit but I haven't seen him in years so I don't know where he is now."
"I think I've seen some descriptions of a few bandits like that but I would need more info on him." MaSha said.
"Well we'll see what we can come up with" Tigress said.
"Search the Valley to see if there are any clues to who he is." Master Shifu said. "We need to find that jewel."
"Yes Master Shifu" They bowed and ran out to find the jewel.
*With Po and the bandits*
"Alright what did you guys collect?" Po asked them.
"We got some money from the noodle shop" Kang said.
"I was able to get a few jewels from a few homes before one of those tigers showed up" Nayi said handing him the bag.
"Nice job" Po told her looking into the bag.
"Did you get the Emperor's jewel sir?" Xhan asked.
"Indeed I did" Po said.
"Yes finally we can get out of this retched valley" Kang said excitedly looking at the jewel.
"Not so fast Kang" Po told him. "There's something else we need to take."
"What is it sir?" Nayi asked.
"There are artifacts at the Jade Palace that are worth millions and even more in Europe. If we get one of the Furious Five's 'loyalty' we'll be able to get in no problem" Po told them.
"Yeah but how are we going to do that?" Nayi asked him. "The Furious Five and MaSha are probably searching for us."
"They know what we all look like" Kang added.
"True" Po said. "But they didn't see me"
"You always go unseen Chief" Xhan told him.
"That's why HE'S going nut head" Nayi said hitting him.
"Oww" Xhan exclaimed rubbing the back of his neck.
"But how are you going to get their attention without looking suspicious?" Kang asked.
"Don't worry I'm great at this." Po said. "I've token on Dragons. I think I can take a couple of tigers, a monkey, crane, mantis and snake." He added grabbing a normal coat.
*At the Valley.*
Tigress walked through the Village keeping an eye out for anyone suspicious. Although, as she walked she didn't notice someone and she bumped right into him.
"Hey watch it" It said. It was Po. He was wearing a coat, and had patched up burlap pants.
"I'm sorry" She apologized helping him up. "I wasn't watching where I was going."
"Well next time you should pay closer attention." He told her before noticing who he was talking too. "Are you Master Tigress?"
"Yeah why?"
"Oh no reason" He said. "I'm sorry for talking to you like that" He bowed.
"No need to bow" She told him. "It is kind of my fault anyway... what's your name? I've never actually seen you around here."
"I'm Po and I'm new here at the valley"He told her.
"Well it's nice to meet you Po" She said politely.
"Nice to meet you too" He returned the greeting.
"I have to go" She excused herself.
"Alright, I'll see you around." He smiled.
"Yeah," She smiled back. "Bye" and with that she left.
"That's the one" He told himself.
"Her?" Nayi asked coming out of the bushes. "You're going to befriend that tiger?"
"Why not?" He asked her. "She seems to be easily tricked. Besides her sister is much harder to convince."
"Alright then here" She said giving him a heavy bag. "These are the weapons you might need if you get into any trouble" Po rolled his eyes and gave her back the bag.
"I don't need any Nayi they're not going to hurt me even if they tried."
"Alright fine" She crossed her arms. "But if you get hurt don't come complaining to me."
"When have a done that?" He asked her but all he got from her was a grunt.
*With Tigress*
Tigress met up with the rest of the Five and MaSha back the palace empty handed.
"I looked through scrolls and found a few bandits with a description like the one from yesterday and one with no name" MaSha told her.
"What do you mean no name?" Monkey asked her.
"I mean it has his description but he's never been caught" MaSha told him. "He's never been looked at face to face and never had a name" She added. Tigress took the scroll and began to read it.
"Number 1: Most Wanted
Name: N/A
Height: 6'5"
Species: Unknown
Gender: Male (you can only hear his voice.)
Description: The Most Wanted criminal in all of China, Europe, Russia, and Africa for 8 years. Steals mostly jewels, and sometimes kidnaps children and/or teens leaving a ransom or they are never seen again.
Allies: Nayi Spivero, Kang Hue, Xhan Xhun, Yan Yun, Tie Boe, Kuo Kay, and Hang Lea.
*Don't chase after him… he'll be found when he wants to be found*"
"This sounds like one tough dude." Mantis said looking at it with Monkey.
"His species is unknown?" Monkey asked.
"That's what it says on his records" MaSha answered. "It must be him because I found similar records of his allies." She added.
"Nothing else is known about him?" Tigress asked.
"No I searched every scroll sis there's nothing." MaSha confirmed.
"Then how are we going to find who the bandit is before the Emperor comes at the end of the week?" Tigress asked with a worried expression.
Well there you guys go what do you think? I know that you wanted more information on how Po is as a bandit but you'll learn about him as we go along. Please Review at free will thank you.
