Po flew to Punjam Hy Loo, which wasn't too surprising to him to see was in Southeast Asia. He was going to help Tooth sort out the teeth that all of the Guardians collected that she wasn't able to. The Mini Fairies were too busy collecting other teeth to help. He was going to collect teeth with the Mini Fairies but after the job with Sandy, he was the one who decided against it.
"Po! You're here!" Tooth said as he flew in.
"Hi Tooth! I-"
"That's nice!"
Po was pushed to the room where all the memory capsules were stored. There were three sacks of teeth in the middle of the ground.
"Now! We have to get busy! This is setting me far behind!"
Tooth placed a feather on Po's head.
"What's this?"
"I do that to give people temporary knowledge on which tooth goes where. If a tooth goes in the wrong place, the child could get someone else's memory. Now come on, there's no time to waste!"
Po shrugged and grabbed a sack.
He found this surprisingly hard to do, even knowing which tooth belongs to which child. It was still the matter of finding the actual capsule. Tooth zipped by him so many times, he wondered if he was even needed.
When Po finally found the eighth capsule he needed at the top, he noticed a Mini Fairy floating here, looking very upset.
The Mini Fairy was very unusual to Po. First of all, it was the only male Mini Fairy Po had seen. He was the same colors as the others, even a bit darker, but his tail feather and head feather were light grey at the top and dark grey at the bottom. He couldn't see his eyes since he was looking down, still upset. There was a small wide-brimmed hat in his right hand with red bristles sticking out of the top.
Po just stared, confused. He knew every one of the Mini Fairies, since he was such a big fan, with his favorite being Baby Tooth. But he never saw this Mini Fairy before. He put the tooth he held back in the sack and reached out to the Mini Fairy, who didn't look like he noticed Po, wanting to ask what was wrong.
"Po! No time to waste, remember?"
Tooth started to pull Po away to get back to work.
"Tooth, wait!" Po said pulling away. "Who's that up there?"
He pointed to the sad Mini Fairy. Tooth stopped rushing and looked sad too.
"That's Brave Beak, one of the few of my Mini Fairies reincarnated from a living thing."
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's upset, because he wasn't able to help with Pitch. He's very protective of me and feels like he failed me even now. I tried my best to cheer him up, but not even painting did the trick, and it's usually his favorite pastime."
Po looked concerned at Brave Beak.
"I know you want to try, so you can. I really want him to feel better about it." Tooth said flying away.
As she flew away, Po flew up to Brave Beak.
"Hey..."
Po waited for him to look up. When he did, Po could clearly see his glasz-colored eyes, filled with disappointment.
"I'm gonna just give a little tap to your forehead, okay Brave Beak?" Po said reaching out. "It's gonna make it a little easier to cheer you up."
Brave Beak watched Po's hand as it approached his forehead in an uncaring manner. Po tapped Brave Beak's forehead and waited for the aura change. Nothing happened. The male fairy was still upset.
"What?" Po asked looking at his hand.
This never happened before in the three months Po had his touch, except when he was already friends with someone. But he never met Brave Beak before this.
Po looked back at Brave Beak, who decided to sit on Po's shoulder. Po petted his head before he put his hat back on.
"It's okay." Po said.
Brave Beak shook his head, not making a sound.
"Yes it is. Hey, how about you help me sort the teeth? I'm having trouble finding them."
Brave Beak just sat stationary before nodding and flying off of his shoulder. They continued to job of sorting teeth, and it made the male fairy a littlt happy to do his job.
"Ow!" Po said, feeling a prick from one of the teeth as he reached in his sack. "That tooth was sharp!"
He pulled that tooth out and saw that it was Po's canine.
"Hey! She still has mine!" Po said.
Po felt on his teeth and felt the empty spot on the top left part of his mouth where the canine was. That this, before Tai Lung caused it to fall out.
Brave Beak tapped Po's shoulder and pointed to the far left. Po floated there and saw his capsule. It was a picture of him when he had black and while fur instead of red and white, smiling.
Po pulled out the capsule and there was all twenty of his baby teeth. They looked very old and almost fossilized, and it almost made Po feel a little old himself. There was an added-in middle spot for his adult canine, but what was in the spot was a quarter.
'Must've put it there by mistake.' Po thought to himself, chuckling.
He took the quarter out and placed the canine there. Po felt tired from the work.
"How did you guys do this every day?" Po asked Brave Beak.
Said fairy shrugged. Even though there was a lot of them, it was still a lot of work.
Po wept his forehead, accidently wiping the feather off to one of the lowest platforms of the Palace.
"Oh no!"
Po flew down fast to get it, but ended up crashing face down into the ground from not pulling up and spilling the remaining teeth out of the sack. All of the Mini Fairies and Tooth stopped what they were doing and surrounded the injured panda.
"Po? Are you okay?"
Brave Beak tapped Po's shoulder. After a while, Po's head went up slowly to reveal his bruised face.
"I'm okay..." Po said in a dizzy tone with a smile, revealing his gap.
Po stuck a paw into his mouth and pulled out the feather.
"Hey, a tooth didn't come out this time." He said.
Brave Beak and Tooth looked so concerned at first, but then they chuckled at Po's words, along with the other Mini Fairies.
Po laughed as everyone laughed. He didn't mind it, that was funny in his option.
"Brave Beak...you're happy!"
Brave Beak smiled at Po.
"Hooray!..." Po said before his head slammed back down to the platform.
