Chapter 4: The Star is Shining as Your Eyes

Viper was sobbing at the same little cave where she accidentally hid in when she was little, she was crying for help and then she heard a voice that she wanted to hear.

"Found you."

She held up her head and saw the face of Crane, with a gentle smile on his face as it melted her cold heart down. His wings fluttering and saw his friend's tears were falling off her eyes as he used his beak to wipe them off.

"Come on, everybody is—" then he was interrupted by Viper's sudden hug, she hugged him tightly as she didn't want to let it go.

Crane was shocked and widened at first, but then he gently patted her back, just like the old days, "There, there. It's okay now. I'm here and we're going home now." He whispered in her ears.

'Just like that day…' she thought when their eyes were connected. Viper saw Crane's eyes were full of cares and gentle in it, and Crane saw Viper's eyes were full of passion and pure in it, just when their lips were getting closer and closer, they were interrupted.

"Crane! Is Viper down there?" yelled Shifu and they have snapped out.

'So close!' both thought in unison, then Crane looked up and saw his friends' heads appeared, "Yes, Master Shifu! She's here!" Crane responded.

Crane put Viper on his back and flew up back on the field, and saw their friends were full of worries in their faces, Crane helped Viper on the landing and Viper went to Shifu and apologies of her stance, and Shifu forgave her but to repay it, she must be punished as doing an extra training.

"Viper, tomorrow you shall be face your punishment and your punishment are, doing extra training and your opponent will be…Crane." Then Viper and Crane were widened of his words.

Viper asked again, "Master Shifu, what did you said?"

"I said you will be punish of facing Crane as your opponent of doing the extra training, is that a problem?" Shifu replied as he smirked.

"No! Not at all!" Crane and Viper said in unison and everyone laughed.

But then, Po caught something in his nose and he tried to sneeze it out, "Ha…ha." When Crane and Viper saw it, they quickly conjured of what happened after Crane found Viper.

--Flashback--

The flash light was a group of fire-flies as they looked like frightened or mad on Crane and Viper, the two saw it rage in them as Crane quickly flew back to the Jade Palace.

Although, he didn't have much strength and he spent half of day without any energy to find Viper as they got fell down. Crane embraced Viper of not letting her get hurt by falling, even he hasn't much strength but he has a clear mind to guide him to save the one he precious. He shocked as he saw there were scratches on his body and they were bleeding!

Then, they saw the fire-flies' lights could lit up fire on the field and the only thing pops up in their minds was, we're dome!

They could see the light has getting closer and they were ready to face their dome, they heard a music, a song was playing on a bamboo flute, although Crane was a good memorize on the song so he could memorize it.

And they could see that the fire-flies seemed like the music as they faded their flames and returned their places and flying everywhere to become a peaceful fire-fly around.

When the two turned their heads and saw Master Oogway was above them, more like they were lying down on the field and when they looked up, what they saw was Master Oogway with a peaceful smile on his face!

"Master Oogway!" they quickly bowed to the tortoise.

"No need to bow, young masters." He replied and they held up their heads.

"Master Oogway, how on earth did you found us?" asked curiously Viper.

He didn't answer her question but said a riddle, "When the lights shine bright twice, first come in accident and the second time there comes a couple appear…" he them chuckled, but the two were confused.

"Come, young masters. The others are looking for you with worry." Oogway said as he turned his way and they followed him. Viper felt tired as she slept into the crane's warm embrace and Crane wouldn't let her go.

--End of Flashback--

"No! No! Po, don't sneeze!" they both shouted, but it was too late, he has let out the sneeze!

HAA--CHUUUU!!

The sound has echoed the whole field and there came a replay scene, the fire-flies have gathered in a group as it charged on the Furious Five.

Then, Crane got an idea and he shouted, "Master Shifu! Please hand me your bamboo flute!" And Shifu threw it to Crane.

'Hope this will work! Master Oogway, please give me strength!' he prayed and he began to play.

The music of the flute has blown out in the air as it was a soft, gentle and graceful music. The Furious Five, the kung fu master and angry fire-flies seemed like enjoy, and so the fire-flies have faded their angry lights and separated into numbers of them around the field.

"Wow, man, Crane, I didn't know you have that thinking!" Monkey commented.

"As am I, how did you know that song?" asked Shifu curiously, "And that song was Master Oogway used to play that as a peaceful calm mind song." He added.

The others were looked at Crane and Mantis asked, "That's what you never told us, that Master Oogway saved you guys by that song and you memorized it." He nodded.

"Well, the little disaster is over, let's hit the trail! By the way, Shifu, where are we suppose to be going?" Po asked.

"You're right here, now." He smiled.

"What? Here!?" they said in unison.

"This is the Sacred Field of Harmony. And those fire-flies were the guardians of this field." He added.

"No wonder they are the guardians." Tigress said and the others were agreed.

"Students, please. Lay down on the grass." Shifu said as he lied himself on the grass and the others followed.

They were shocked as they saw millions of stars shining right in front of their eyes, the stars were shined bright and so there came a shooting star.

"Whoa, look! A shooting star!" Mantis said.

"Hurry and make a wish!" Monkey then said as they have all closed their eyes and prayed deeply on the shooting star.

'I wish that I and Tigress could be together one day…' Po prayed.

'I wish me and Po could be together some day…' Tigress prayed.

'Wish my almond cookies stop stealing by Po…' Monkey prayed.

'I wish everyday has something I could tease on…' Mantis prayed.

'Wish everyone in peace and harmony…' Shifu prayed.

'I wish… that I could have courage to show my love to Viper…' Crane prayed deeply.

'I wish that I could find a way to show my love on Crane…' Viper prayed deeply.

And so they have listened on Shifu's teaching and saw the stars shining in the sky. Crane leaned his head beside Viper and whispered in her ears.

"Don't ever scare me like that!" Crane said as he hugged Viper tightly, and added, "Not ever!"

And Viper returned the hug to him and said, "I won't, and I love you." her face turned into scarlet.

Crane looked into Viper's eyes and they were glimmering as the stars at endless sky, and he smiled at her, "I love you, too." then their lips were in an inch distance. But then they were snapped out by Po's shout.

"Hey, guys! The valley seems like open a music competition down there!" Po shouted as they ran over to him and saw the valley was making up a music competition for celebrating something or all in sudden.

"Come on, Shifu! Just this once, can we go?" Po asked.

"…" he didn't respond in a moment and then he sighed, "Fine, but after 30 minutes we're going back." He smirked and they cheered and ran down to the valley so fast.
