Chapter 1 – Daily lives resumed

It's two months after Rudolph returned to the Valley of Peace, he had a great time with his friends, he trained at the Jade Palace, he fought and defeated Temutai alongside the Dragon Warrior along with the aid of Shifu and the Furious Five. Afterward he had a dinner with them and they gave him grateful thank you presents, and finally, he got an action figure himself made by his best friend, Po. Sadly, he had to leave again, he said he'll come back some day, but he hasn't yet. His personal reasons though.

It's a beautiful morning in the Valley of Peace, the sun's rising in the sapphire sky, the villagers are just opening their shops and the Valley will soon be active, some kids are out playing in the warm June morning, and are heading to the lakes to cool off. Up at the Jade Palace, high on a mountain, touching the heavens, Po, Shifu, and the Furious Five have just woken up for another day of training. Now, after greeting their master, they're walking down the hall to have breakfast.

"Bring on the bean buns!" Monkey said happily as he bounced, using his tail.

"YEAH! Bean buns!" Mantis shouted as he hopped towards the kitchen.

Viper, Crane, Po and Tigress only chuckled as they walked down the hall. Po looked at Tigress, he smiled at her as she smiled a warm smile at him. Her smile is so beautiful to him, she's the most beautiful thing the panda's ever seen. He loves her to death. He put his arm around her back and she chuckled. She's been smiling more and actually allowed herself to have fun, while still being her hardcore self, but in a warmed up way. She gently kissed Po's cheek and he kissed her cheek as well. Po felt giddy, he's been seriously thinking about something lately.

Later in the kitchen, Monkey and Mantis were having a playful argument about who's gonna win their new obstacle course while Tigress just groaned in annoyance.

"And what about the bean paste field? I'm gonna beat you in that!" Monkey shouted playfully as he pounded his fist on the table.

"No, I'm gonna win the dumpling contest!" Mantis shouted back.

Po chuckled as he poured the noodles into seven different bowls, Shifu's gonna join them in a minute.

"Order up," he said as he passed the bowls out to them.

He passed them all out and they all thanked him as he did so. Po sat next to Tigress, she smiled warmly as he gave her bowl to her.

"Thank you, Po," she said as she smiled warmly.

"Not a problem, Tigress," Po said with a smile.

They began eating their noodles, the other members of the Five are happy for them, they're happy together and Tigress has loosened up some.

"You two are really head over heals for one another aren't you?" Mantis asked as he chuckled.

Tigress growled, "Mantis...no teasing about us..."

"She's right," said Crane, "Remember what happened last time?"

Mantis froze, recalling the horror event, he shut his mouth and began to eat faster, very nervous though. Tigress gave a sharp nod of satisfaction as Shifu walked in.

"Hello students," he said as he smiled.

"Hi Master Shifu," they all said in unison.

Shifu smiled as he sat in his chair next to Po and began eating his noodles.

"Good as always, Po," Shifu said with a smile.

"Thanks Master Shifu," Po replied with a smile.

Shifu smiled as he looked at Po and Tigress, they've not broken one of his rules since they were allowed to date (as far as he knows), he's happy to see his daughter smiling more than she used to, he knows he hasn't been a good father in the past for her, but he's trying to do better for her. While they kept eating, Crane and the others were talking while Po remained silent as he ate, he's thinking about two things though. Tigress was puzzled, normally he'd be in his talk active mood, but he's not today. She put her hand on his shoulder, snapping him out of his thoughts.

"Po, are you okay?" Tigress asked.

Po looked at her and smirked, "Of course I'm okay, I was just thinking."

"About..."

Po froze for a minute, he was thinking about something he's been pondering for the last 4 days in mostly meditation. He saw the others including Shifu wondering what he was thinking about. Then Po thought of something.

"Oh...I was thinking about Rudolph," he said, hoping they'd buy that.

"Rudolph?" Viper asked, "What about him?"

"Uhm...I was just thinking how he's been doing...I mean...we haven't seen him for two months..." Po said as he chuckled nervously.

Shifu nodded, "I see, Po. I'm sure he's doing fine. You know him."

"Yeah, always making sure Christmas presents are gonna arrive! WOO!" Mantis shouted.

"Mantis, the elves make the toys, Rudolph helps Santa deliver them," said Crane.

"Plus, you know Christmas is about family, friends, and Jesus," Po said, recalling what Rudolph told him about.

"Correct Po," said Shifu, "But let's get done with breakfast, and then it's off to training."

While they resumed eating, Po looked at Shifu, he winked at him, thanking him for covering him, Shifu winked back, knowing what Po was really thinking about, but he needs to focus in training. Po continued eating, ready to start another day.

While way, way, up north, in Santa's village, under the golden sun and blue clear sky, some elves are gathering up the pieces to make the toys for Christmas coming in 6 months, there're some reindeer yearlings playing in the snow with the watchful eyes of their parents, and some kid elves are playing as well. The North Pole is about six hours ahead of China's time, so it's the afternoon.

In his house, Rudolph has just finished refurnishing his room with a new bed and a new comfy chair, he put on some blue winter pants, a green jacket with red stripes, and a red scarf. He sighed as he formed a small smile and he looked over at the action figures Po gave him. He admired the craftsmanship, he looked at them, of Po, the Furious Five, Mr. Ping, Oogway, Tai Lung, Shen, Shifu, Wolf Boss, and of himself with blue pants and a yellow shirt on. He picked it up and smiled, thinking of Po's generosity.

"Playing with your toys again?" said a feminine voice.

Rudolph jumped and then he put the action figure back on the shelf, he turned to face his mother, Mitzi, a female reindeer with blue eyes and has a white dress on.

"N-No Mom! I was...I was just admiring the craftsmanship!" Rudolph stuttered.

Mitzi chuckled, "I know son." She walked over to him and said, "I just wanted you to know that the Reindeer Games are starting in an hour."

Rudolph smiled as he put his hoof on his head, "I forgot about that...but I have an errand to run, and then I'll be on my way."

Mitzi nodded before hugged her and kissed her cheek, he went out of his room, his dad wasn't home for he's getting ready for the Reindeer Games. He walked through the den and to the door.

"Bye Mom! I'll see you at the Games!" Rudolph called out to her.

"Bye Rudolph, I love you," Mitzi said with a smile.

"Love you too."

Rudolph opened the door, went out and closed the door.

When he went outside, the cold wind blew right in his face, he flinched, but then he chuckled to himself

Isn't it ever warmer than 10 degrees in June? he thought as he chuckled.

Rudolph began walking through the village, there aren't any Christmas decorations up at this time, but it always seems a bit like Christmas to Rudolph, but it never gets old for him. He saw some elves laughing and playing with some yearlings. He missed Po, but he likes being home with loved ones, he'd go back, but he doesn't wanna be gone too often. He's heading to the store to buy Zoey that necklace he saw a couple days ago on their wonderful date, he blushes at the memory as his nose glowed. Then a couple of does saw him, they smiled and began running over to him, giggling. He heard them he stopped and turned around to see them.

"Hello Rudolph," one said in a giggly tone.

"Heh...hello Melissa and Betty," Rudolph chuckled as he smiled, "What can I do for you?"

Betty was giddy, she's nearly dancing.

"Can we have your autograph?" Betty asked in a giddy tone.

Rudolph laughed, "You've asked for my autograph ten times before, have you had enough?"

"No!" the does said in unison.

Rudolph laughed as he grabbed their pieces of paper and wrote his name on them. They both gasped when he gave them back and they ran away laughing, Rudolph just shook his head as he smiled. He walked to the store and picked out Zoey the golden necklace with a sapphire in it, it's her birthstone. He walked to her house and knocked on her door. Then, Donner, a darker reindeer than that of Blitzen opened the door, he had blue pants and a green shirt on. He smiled at Rudolph.

"Hey Rudolph," he said with a smile.

"Hi Mr. Donner," Rudolph replied as he smile, "I'm here to see Zoey."

"Of course," said Donner, he went inside the house, "Zoey! Rudolph's here!"

"Coming!" Zoey said.

Then she came to the door, she's a beautiful female doe, she had a white shirt and a blue skirt on. She smiled warmly at Rudolph.

"Hello Rudolph," she said, "What brings you by?"

Rudolph chuckled, "Hey Zoey, I've got something for you." He blushed as his nose glowed, making Zoey giggle. Then he held out a black box about 6 inches wide. Zoey smiled wider as she gratefully took it. When she opened it, she gasped, it was the beautiful golden necklace with a beautiful sapphire in it, she looked at Rudolph with an astounded look.

"Rudolph?! How?! Why?!" she asked, completely shocked.

"Well...on our date two days ago...I saw you looking at it...and I thought I'd get it for you..." Rudolph said as his nose glowed brighter.

Zoey couldn't believe it, this thing was 900 dollars, and yet, Rudolph got it for her! She stepped outside as she looked directly into his eyes. Her brown eyes looked directly into Rudolph's soul, he blushed even more as his nose glowed even more. Then, she lurched forward and planted a kiss right on his lips! Rudolph gave a yelp of shock and his eyes widened to the size of dinner place. It's his first kiss! Then Rudolph settled into the kissing as his nose glowed, what he didn't know is that a jealous Arrow saw them, he glared at them in pure hatred.

You shall regret this Reject...there's a storm coming, he thought in an angry tone.

He stomped off in anger while Zoey broke away from Rudolph, he looked at her with an amazed look.

"Z-Zoey..." he said in a shocked tone, he couldn't believe she did that!

"I-I'm sorry..." she said as she blushed lightly, "I...I couldn't hold it in anymore..."

Rudolph recovered and his nose stopped glowing, Rudolph smiled at her and said, "It's okay, Zoe. I loved it."

"You...you did?" Zoey asked with slightly widened eyes.

Rudolph nodded, "Well, I'd stay longer, but I gotta get to the stadium."

"I'll see you later, Rudolph," Zoey said with a warm smile, "I'll take good care of the necklace.

"Will do," Rudolph said as he hugged her, she returned it and then kissed his cheek before she went back into the house. Rudolph began walking away, and then he began jumping up and down.

My first kiss! My first kiss! Rudolph shouted in his mind, full of joy and happiness, it took a lot of him to keep himself from shouting for real.

Then he began running in joy, cheering in his mind. He's ready for the Reindeer Games to start.

A/N: Rudolph's first kiss! He LOVED that didn't he? And we'll see what Po has planned, and what does Arrow plan to do? That reindeer's a thorn in Rudolph's side isn't he? REVIEW! :D
