First of all let me start off by apologizing. Lately I've been busy and I'm in a writers block with Kung Fu Panda so please be patient with me. Thank you!
Summary: Po is out trying again to clear his name, but figures from his past are coming back. The Emperor wants him dead because of his mistakes. Meanwhile, Tigress is searching for him with his sister, Nayi, and his two members, Xheng and Kang. They find clues Po leaves for them unknowing that Tigress is with them. He's putting her in even bigger danger than before. At the palace, Shifu isn't allowing anyone to go after Tigress, but MaSha isn't one to follow the rules when it comes to her sister. To shorten it, everyone is searching for something. Po searches to clear his name, Tigress searches for him and MaSha is searching for Tigress. Confused yet? ;)
Po walked through a dimly light forest. Trees as far as the eye could see. He passed a grave, one his sister had created for one of his band members. He had killed him two years before he had known Tigress. He frowned knowing he had killed a good man. He was dedicated to him. He was well respected. But the night of his death he made a grave mistake.
Flashback
"You shouldn't do that." Nayi had warned him. "Po will kill you Fino." He wasn't a wolf as the rest of the clan. He was a lion. He was short for being a lion though. He didn't even reach Po's shoulder. But he was strong and tough. He could hold his ground against anyone. He was well respected to the band of bandits. He admired Po as his leader and friend. Po never treated him as a friend though. Name? Fino Suga Linx. Son of Jina Linx. One of the best female bandits. He did not know who his father was. His mother had never mentioned him. Fino had decided to follow his mother's footsteps and become one of the bests. But to do that he must do what needs to be done. And right now...was to take Japan's most valuable treasure. He knew Po wouldn't be happy but he was tough and could take him on. At least he thought he could. He never fought him before. He was in his clan by pure luck but no one challenges the leader. Nayi didn't want him to do what she knew what he would do. Po did not know this, but she and Fino have had an affair for quite sometime. She knew Po would kill him for sure if he knew.
"Please don't do this." She begged him once more. Fino didn't listen to her and left for Japan's fortress. He didn't come back for hours. Po awoke in the morning to see him gone. He grew furious. He knew Fino wanted to get his paws on Japan's treasure but Po didn't want to risk the mission. He knew he could get caught. Japan had high security and guard. Po and Fino had a "private" talk in another room when he returned. The rest of the gang grew worried, hearing the fighting and bangs against the wall making them all hide. Nayi had a feeling Fino wasn't going to come out of there with his life. And he didn't. Po came out alone. Splatters of blood in his face and hands. He spit out a bloody tooth on the floor shutting the door behind him. Everyone was afraid to even look at him. They all sat in silence gathering their stuff. Nayi refused to leave without giving Fino a proper burial. No matter how angry Po was, he allowed it to happen. Everyone was shocked to see how brutally Fino was beaten. They had never been this disturbed in their lives. And they never will be. Nayi disappeared for about a year since Fino's death. She hadn't told him or anyone, but at the time of his death, she was pregnant with his child. Through out the year she had disappeared. Po didn't spend it stealing or killing, well maybe once or twice, but he spent it searching for her. When she returned he was happy yet angry to see her back. She never told him of the child, not until a few years into clearing his name. He met the child. Her name was Din Linx. She was a mixture of a wolf and lion. She had bright blue eyes like her father. Her fur was grey with a mixture of brown. Po knew he had made a grave mistake that night. They never saw her again.
End of flashback.
Po stared at the grave for quite a while. Regretting what he had done. They took him with them back to China and buried him where every other bandit was buried. Near Po's father's fortress. He walked towards the fortress. It was old and rundown. Some of its wall was missing and moss grew through. He walked inside seeing trees were beginning to grow inside. He walked up the rundown stairs, having to jump a few times of the holes and headed to his late father's room where he found a large chest. He opened it revealing a large green emerald. It had belonged to his father, who had stolen it from a prince in England while killing him in the process. Beginning his crime spree of the century, well until his son beat it that is.
"What are you doing here son?" Po heard a ghastly voice behind him. He knew who it was. His father. His ghost anyways.
"Just...picking up something up." He told him.
"You aren't taking the emerald are you?"
"It's not like you need it. Your dead." Po turned around seeing his father's ghost. He went by Lingo Fu Sin. He was a wolf floating in the air. He had a scar going over his left eye. He was missing an ear and wore an armored suit of the empirial army, one he died in trying to go in undetected into the palace.
"Maybe I don't. But that's what makes our family the greatest bandits in all of China. And now, thanks to you, in the WHOLE world! You don't want to give that up do you son?"
"Maybe I do." He walked out of the room. His father glared after him and sealed the front entrance to keep his son from leaving. "Oh come on. Are you kidding me right now?!" Po turned around glaring at his father.
"You better not be trying to clear your name son!"
"And what if I am?!" Po glared. "I'm a grown man. If I want to I will!"
"You've worked for most wanted ever since you were 17! You've wanted to be a bandit even before you could crawl!"
"Well I changed! I don't want to be the bad guy anymore!"
"You've always been the bad guy! And you will always be the bad guy!"
"No. That was you. Not me. I'm not like you." Po began to leave.
"Because you're better son." Po stopped. He had never heard his father say that to him. Not even in his mortal days. "Clearing your name for whatever reason won't help, son...it's a girl...isn't son?" Po stood quiet. "The truth is son. Your mother wasn't a bandit when I met her. She was daughter of the Emperor. Next one in line. I was there to steal the gem, but your mother was in there. She shone brighter than that blasted gem."
Flashback
A blue gem stands in the middle of the room, a young wolf wearing a dress stands by trying to adjust the crown on her head.
"Blast!" She cursed as the crown dropped onto the floor causing it to lose one of its gems. By the entrance stands a wolf wearing a black suit hiding in the shadows. He stealthily goes behind pillars trying to reach the gem. He never noticed the young princess trying to grab the gem as he reached for it as well. Their paws met sending a strange, but pleasing, feeling through their bodies. They looked at each other for quite a while. Their pleasant moment was ruined by the voice of the Emperor and Empress. Lingo, being the bandit he is, took her and the gem fleeing from the palace. The Emperor called out to the guards and he was on the run. The young princess only laughed not caring that she was being royaly napped by the soon to be most wanted criminal. She witnessed him kill some of the guards single handily. It didn't take long for him to lose the rest of the guards. They hid in a cave. She giggled as he put her down gently onto her feet. He was surprised she hadn't attempted to escape or even protested that he had token away. Her name was Quin Li Soa and she soon became his partner in crime and wife.
End of Flashback
"About a year later, we found you." He explained. "We both wanted to just clear our names but we had already gone to far and knew we wouldn't make it far. Now I'm afraid you and your sister are paying the price for our mistakes."
"I'll fix it." Po said climbing through a hole in the walls. "You'll see." He finally fell through.
"I sure hope so son." He frowned before his ghost disappeared into dust.
I worked on this chapter quite hard. I didn't even know how to continue. Anyways, I hope this chapter was worth the wait!
