Special Thanks to The Mummy, because this idea is sorta based off of it.

Soul Eater

As Tigress lied on her own room mat, bandages around her head, she slept soundly as she dreamed.

In her dreams, she and Fray were in the Training Hall, racing each other through the obstacles. They stroke every club in their way, dodged the swing blades around them, pasted all the combat poles, and leaped over the fire snares.

With that leap, they landed on the platform above the Hall. However, Tigress landed on the edge of the platform, too close to stand onto of it. She lost her balance and fell backwards. But before she could fall onto the fire snares, Fray snatched her paw, preventing her from falling.

Fray pulled her back onto the platform as she rested on her paws, "Thanks Zhan, that was close," she thanked, sighing heavily.

"No problem," he replied, sitting down beside her.

The younger Tigress glanced at him, his alluring brown eyes, ridiculously adorable smile, short to say Tigress had fallen head-over-heals for him. He was just so cute, and so nice to her then, although he might disobey a few rules and urge her to come with him, he still brought out the best in her.

A lot like Po, she thought. Come to think of it, Fray had use to be a lot like Po when he was just a boy, wild dreams, a big heart, and curiosity that would usually get him into trouble. The sad part of this theory was since Fray had grown up he had changed, from her best friend and secret crush to an assassin working for the Society of Shadows. Although Fray had come to his senses and rescued her from Rollo Kio, he also had to leave them in search for his true destiny.

While thinking about what the past event, she began to hear faraway voices, which sounded as if they were getting closer.

Coming back to reality, Tigress opened an eye, catching several concerned eyes staring at her. She sat up and wiped the sleep from her eyes, and looked back to see Master Shifu, Po, Viper, Crane, Monkey, and Mantis there.

"W-what's going on? Where am I?" Tigress asked, holding her head.

"You're in your room," Viper answered.

"You took a pretty nasty hit in the back of the head," Mantis explained.

Feeling medical tape around her head, along with a killer headache, Tigress groaned, "I can see that."

Po stepped forward, "Tigress, can you remember anything?" he asked, "Who you are?... Why you're here?... Past?... Y'know, stuff like that?"

"I have a headache Panda, not amnesia," Tigress assured, wobbling as she got to her feet.

She stood on her own feet, wobbling too much as if she seconds away from collapsing and falling flat on her face.

"Why don't we take a break?" Po suggested, "we can go to my dad's noodle shop for lunch."

"I agree," Mantis started, "I'm hungry."

"Of course you're hungry," Monkey began, "If it's Po's cooking or his father's, you're hungry."

Mantis cast him a angry look while Shifu hesitated.

"Alright, you may go for lunch, but be at your ready at all times," said the old red panda.

"Awesome, let's go," Po cheered, grabbing Tigress' paw and pulling her wobbling self with him. The rest of the Five sprinted to catch up with them as Shifu simply smiled at their youth.

At the top step of the Thousands Steps, Po released Tigress as she fought to regain her balance, having much difficulties doing so. As the giant panda began to to the first step, his comrades halted him.

"Wait Po!" Monkey called as the rest finally caught up with them.

"What's the matter, guys?"

"Uh, we just wanted to ask you to be careful," Mantis said, keeping his voice firm.

"Relax, if anyone's gonna need help down the stairs it's gonna be Tigress," Po concluded, pointing at the still dizzy female tiger.

"Yes, but we still think you require a little... assistance," Crane explained.

"C'mon! I've been going up and down the stairs for months now."

"Yeah, but you had trouble all through those months," Viper pointed out.

"Yeah, but would it kill you to show a little faith me once every while?" Po asked, approaching the stairs, "I mean, don't you think by now I would have finally-"

Unfortunately, before he could finish that sentence, he tripped on the first step and tumbled down the stairs. The Five watched as the giant panda bounced down the stairs, apparently it was still a bit funny.

"Looks like he's gonna beat us to the restaurant," Mantis said, stating the obvious.

"Most likely," Crane replied, placing a wing on Tigress and escorted her down the stairs.

While they followed Po down the stairs, Tai Lung stood in visual contact with the Valley of Peace, only a few fifty miles away.

Behind him, Fray caught up with the creature, firing more explosive darts. Several of them pierced around Tai Lung, but did nothing to stop him.

One of the good parts of this curse was that it made him immortally, come to think of it, he was immortal already. With the medallion around his neck he was invincible.

As one of Fray's darts flew through the air and was on a coarse to the creature's head, Tai Lung snatched the tiny missile out of the air, and tossed it back at him.

The cheetah leaped to dodge most of the explosion, but almost fell over the edge of the cliff due to the impact.

Tai Lung grinned, with the power he already possesses, was there really a bother destroying the warriors of the Jade Palace.

Of course there is a reason! said Werkhotep's voice in his head, Draining the souls of those warriors will make you more powerful.

With that, Tai Lung advanced and headed down the path to the Valley.

Fray jumped back to his feet and chased after him, not prepared to quit.
