I am very sorry for the very, very, very, very long wait. I was caught with other things. Now I can finally post again. I continued where I started.


Many months passed and Po and the others were now stronger than ever; especially the bond between Po and Tigress. Ever since their confessions on the boat, they started to date and they listen to one another. One noon, while Tigress was watching the sunset at the peach tree, Viper came to join her.

"Hey Tigress." She slithers into position.

"Hello Viper. What brings you here?"

"Well we never have that much girl time ever since you've been hanging with Po."

"Well me and Po are going steady and it wasn't until the defeat of Lord Shen that he was the best thing in my life. I just wish we can get married. But if we do, he'll have to step down as Dragon warrior and he loves Kung Fu."

"But not as much as you do. Besides, you're both Kung Fu masters. That should be an excuse for you two to be together. You two were meant for each other."

"You really think so?" Viper smiles and nods. Tigress looks down the valley. "I hope you think so because my heart hasn't felt this way in a long time."

The girls didn't know but Shifu was listening to them from afar. His little girl was growing up and was learning to love. He heads for the hall of warriors and looks into the moon pool.

The next thing he knew, a new face was shown in the pool. "Hey Master." Shifu turned to see Po staring at him. "We need to talk. It's about Tigress."

"Sure thing Po, what is it that you need to talk about?"

"Well Me and Tigress have been together for almost a year, and…" he turns to the pool. "I don't know if I should be doing this."

Shifu looks at his face expression and he pats his back. "Are you feeling alright, Dragon Warrior?"

"I'm in love with Tigress and I want her to marry me but if I do, I'll have to step down and she'll have to quit Kung Fu. I don't want that to happen with us."

Shifu smiled at her. "You really love my daughter, don't you?"

"More than anything Shifu."

"But you also love being the Dragon Warrior."

"The Valley of Peace is my home and I have to protect it."

Shifu smiles at that comment. "That's exactly what I want to here. You love the valley of peace, but you also have a pure heart for Tigress. Considering that the one you are choosing to marry is a Master of Kung Fu and you both are from the Jade Palace, you can marry and still be kung fu warriors."

Po was excited. "Really? Are you also giving me permission to ask her?"

"Take care of her, Dragon Warrior."

"Oh thank you very much, Shifu. I promise to treat her as any wife should be treated." With that, Po ran out the door all excited. Shifu smiled as he watched Po head for the barracks.


Po was looking for Crane. He found him studying his scrolls in his rooms.

"Um… Crane, can I have a word with you?"

Crane puts down a scroll and turns around. "Sure Po, what is it that you want?"

"Well you know about romantic stuff consider that you did my… last wedding. Yesterday, I got Shifu's permission to marry Tigress and…"

"And you want to know what time and what place to ask her." Po nods. "You do realize that if you marry Tigress, you'll have to step down as the Dragon Warrior."

"And that's the best part. Shifu said that because Tigress and I are both kung fu masters, we can remain masters."

"That's great news. Well if I had to choose a place, I would either choose tonight at the full moon at the peach tree or a life or death experience. It may not be as romantic, but you never know what will happen."

"Thanks Crane."

"Po! Crane!" Shifu ran in. "There has been a disturbance in musicians village. A group of bandits is taking everything."

"Again? Come on Crane, we better get down there." Po and Crane ran and flew out the down the stairs to catch up with the others.


Po and Crane caught up to the others.

Tigress turned to them. "There you two are. Where have you been?"

Po didn't want to tell her yet. "Shifu just reached to us to tell us about the bandits."

"It's okay, we're almost there."

When they arrived at the village, Fung and his gang were stealing valuable instruments."Hand over the treasures."

"We will never do it." A Bunny was holding his cash box.

Po then came out of nowhere and punched him down. "Hey Fung,wonderful day today to kick some croc butt, is it not?"

"Croc Bandits attack!" The battle had begun.

"Come on." With that, Po and the furious five attacked. Po attacked Fung with a few punches and kick. Monkey grabbed a bamboo staff and began to whack a croc bandit. Viper slithered and twisted making a croc bandit hitting himself. Crane used his wings to low a wind that unbalanced the crocs. Mantis used acupressure point to make the feeling of the crocs arms to go away. Tigress did kicks and punches so hard that one croc ended up hitting up against the wall.

Once the crocs have been defeated, Po and the furious five took them to jail and then they went back to the Jade Palace. Po went to his room to look for the ring that he bought with 1000 Yuan. He puts it in his pocket and then looks for Tigress.

Tigress was talking with Viper in the hall of heroes. "Viper I know I'm supposed to be happy with Po, but I'm miserable not being able to be with him fully. You know, like getting married and start having a new life together."

"You think that can happen? You dedicated your whole life to kung fu, and you are willing to give it all up for him?"

"Yes I love him that much."

Po enters in the hall of heroes. "Hello ladies. Hey Tigress, it's such a beautiful night tonight, won't you join me of taking a stroll along the palace?"

Tigress her eyes, smiled and nodded. "I would love to." They walked out the door leaving Viper smiling. As Po and Tigress walk around the palace, they talked about past battles, how much they loved each other, and so much more. They have reached the sacred peach tree of heavenly wisdom and they sat and watched the full moon. "Oh Po, the moon looks beautiful tonight."

"It sure is but not as beautiful as you."

"Oh Panda." Tigress looks the other way blushing.

Po then gets up and stood over Tigress. "Tigress, I need you to speak with you about something very important." Tigress looks at him and he helps her up on her feet. "You make me the happiest panda in the world. And I can't imagine life without you." He then got down on one knee and got out the ring. "Master Tigress of the furious five, and the carrier of my heart, will you do the honor of becoming my wife?"

Tigress's heart had stopped as she looked at the panda waiting for her answer. "I…I… I don't know. Po, what about the rule of marriage? You and I won't be able to be masters anymore."

"Shifu said that since you and I will always defend China with everything, we can get married."

Tigress smiled and had tears in her eyes. "Then… yes… I will marry you Po!" Po began to lift Tigress in the air and spin her around. Once Tigress was put down, she puts on the ring finger. They both headed for the Barracks to show everyone the good news.


Shifu was meditating in the hall of heroes. "Inner peace…Inner peace…" then he heard a misty sound coming from the door. He opened his eyes and turned around. "Who's there!?" No one answered. He got up and got into fighting position. He walks around the place to make sure no one was going to steal anything. When he got to a vase of which it held the rest of what's left of Tai Lung, he sighed and walked away. "I miss you… my son." Then the vase began to shake then shatter into pieces. Shifu turned around, saw the vase and the dust that fell out. The dust began to swirl into a mini tornado. Shifu back up a little as he saw as the tornado turned into a black familiar figure. "T…T…Tai…Tai…Tai Lung?"

The figure opened his eyes. He had white soulless "Oh Master, you don't look happy to see me. I thought you missed." Shifu was too shocked to talk. "Well don't worry, you'll be able to see me again and I won't be fighting anyone except …Yin. I and Yin will be in a fight two decades from now."

Shifu dropped his staff. "You… you have been chosen to be the Yang dragon defender. But how? You are dead."

"The Yin Dragon isn't with us yet. As soon she arrives, I will be at full form but it will take a while for her to mature. Two decades from now, I will fight her for the leadership of the dragons." Tai Lung made an evil laugh as the figure began to fade into dust and left the hall of heroes and into the sky.

Shifu couldn't believe his eyes. All he did was stood there in shock. 'This can't be happening. He can't come back; especially as the Yang dragon.' Then all his thoughts were interrupted when Po and Tigress burst through the door. His mood changed when he saw the happiness on their faces. "I see you finally ask her."

"Shifu is it true? Can Po and I still be warriors of the Jade Palace even if we are married?" Tigress had concern in her eyes.

"Yes, because you two love each other so much and you two will also do whatever it takes to protect the Valley of Peace. I trust you. So you two can get married and still be warriors of the Jade Palace."

Tigress gave Shifu a hug and swung him around. "Oh Thank you father."

"Group hug!" Po joined the hug. "I'm the happiest Dragon warriors of all time and always will!"

Shifu was so happy that his two best students. Then he saw the vase that was shattered on the ground. What was he gonna do? He couldn't tell his students that Tai Lung was back yet. But since Tai Lung wasn't in full form, it would be safe… for now. "So… when's the wedding."

Tigress released the hug. "We were thinking… since the blossoms will be blooming in two weeks, we were thinking the wedding will be in two weeks."

"Perfect!" Crane flew through the doors. "Excellent choice for the wedding. And looks like someone gonna have to plan the wedding." Crane looks the other direction.

Tigress rolls her eyes. "Crane, since you can plan a wedding in one day, will you plan our wedding that will happen in two weeks?"

"I would love to! Oh there is so much we have to do. And since we have two weeks, we will have lots more for the wedding. We will invite all the masters from all over China. There can also be a party with music and dancing. The wedding of the Dragon Warrior and Master Tigress will be the best wedding ever!" Crane flew off to plan everything.

Tigress chuckled. "I hope we are doing the right thing of hiring Crane."

Po wrapped his arm around her waist. "Don't worry Tigress, I trust Crane. If he can plan a wedding in a day, then he will do great in two weeks."

"Okay my panda, if you can trust our friend, then I can too." Tigress and Po headed for the barracks to rest (in separate rooms of course).

Shifu looks as they head for the Barracks. Then he looks in the sky. "Oh Oogway. My students might be happy together, butTai Lung is coming back. I wish there was something I can do to stop this." Shifu heads back in and shuts the door.

Oogway is standing where the peach tree is. He saw the concern in Shifu's eyes. "Don't worry Shifu; you will help all the way." Then he fades away.


Again, sorry for the long wait, please tell me what you guys think of my chapter. Please no flame.
