The Valley of Piece...

Master Oogway was true to his word. Oogway had brought four students to learn the art of Kung fu. Shifu who had also gone to resolve a problem in the Bao Gu orphanage about a monster. Returned to the palace with a student. The staff of the orphanage seemed to have exaggerated about the monster part. To shifu's surprise it was a mere child, a little tiger cub by the name of Tigress that wasn't able to control her own strength or anger. So for months shifu taught tigress how to control her anger, and strength and fifteen years later that same cub had learned the art of Kung Fu just as the other students Oogway had found. Fifteen years of pain staking and bone crushing training preparing the young warriors for a day Grandmaster Oogway hoped would never come.

The young warriors which are now in their teens are famously known in the valley of piece as the furious five were training with master shifu in the training hall. Tigress was on the seven swinging clubs of instant oblivion dodging each club and blocking any club that came close to knocking her off the training equipment, if the spikes were facing the other direction of course. Monkey a Golden snub-nosed monkey was training on the seven talon rings weaving in and out of the rings performing combos in mid-air. Crane a black and white crane was on the jade tortoise of wisdom blocking incoming projectiles while keeping his balance. Mantis a green mantis, was in the gauntlet of wooden warriors striking and blocking each of the spinning appendages of the wooden warriors. Viper a green viper, was training on the field of fiery death using her lighting speed to avoid the flames.

Shifu who was watching his students train while he stood off to the side was approached by grandmaster Oogway. "The students have come a long way from what they were capable of... Wouldn't you say shifu?" Oogway said a hint of happiness in his voice. "Yes but not far enough I'm afraid Grandmaster Oogway" shifu said with an ashamed look on his face. Tigress who was distracted by the conversation between the two masters was not paying attention to a club that was coming up behind her and smacked her in the back of the head sending tigress face first to the floor. Seeing this Oogway calmly announced "That is enough training for one day. You all should rest for the forth coming days journey." "What?!" shifu shouted displeased. Getting back up on her feet tigress protested "But Master training is the only way to better our skills." "I agree with tigress master Oogway." said master shifu. Oogway pleased that his student wants to better her skills replied to the young tiger "Sometimes we see the fire and insist to touch it...Rest so that we may start the next stage of your training." Tigress having devoted her entire life to kung fu asked "What next stage of training?" the last of shifu's students stood next to tigress each one thinking the same thing. Oogway announced "The next stage of your training can only be found at the shaolin temple in the dengfeng province." Monkey asked out of disbelief "The shaolin temple of the dengfeng province?" tigress stepped forward and stated "But Master its nearly impossible to get accepted as a disciple at the dengfeng temple." Viper then asked "How are we able to train at the temple?" Oogway smiled at shifu's students and replied "It's all a matter of knowing. Now rest child we have a long journey ahead of us." everyone shared a confused look and watched as Oogway made his exit.

The five students were on their way to the student barracks when monkey asked "What do you think Grandmaster Oogway meant?" tigress only thinking of training in the most revered temple in all of china said "Why are you concerned with such a small thing when we are getting the chance in a life time to train at the shaolin temple of the dengfeng province?" monkey stopped in mid stride and asked "You've never once thought about why we have been training hard for many years, or as to why we're going to train at the shaolin temple?" Having said that single sentence monkey had the attention of all his comrades. Viper had turned to look at monkey and questioned "What do you mean?" "all I'm saying is there has to be a reason as to why Master Oogway brought us here to train, other than becoming the next furious five." monkey said deep in thought. Tigress who had her back to the group turned to face monkey and the rest and said "As warriors we are not to ask questions or doubt our leaders or master. So quit your assuming and just do your duties." Mantis standing on a nearby boulder said "Talk about being hard headed." tigress turned on the bug and snarled "I am not hard headed?" Mantis trying to make himself as small as possible stammered "I...well...you...um...you're very dedicated is all I meant." tigress glared at the bug for what seemed like an hour until finally turning and heading for the student barracks. Mantis let out a breath, he didn't realize he was holding in "You're very lucky mantis, she almost squashed you like a bug oh wait, you are a bug." monkey joked. Viper rolled her eyes and followed her sister. Crane pointed out "Mantis you should really be careful about what you say when near tigress." before continuing to the student barracks. Mantis added "Yeah no kidding."

the next morning after packing for their journey to the dengfeng province, the furious five ate a quick breakfast and made their way to the palace gates to wait for their master with their traveling bags like they did every time the five went on a mission for an extended period of time. Shortly after the five warriors arrived at the gate Masters shifu and Oogway could be seen making their way down the steps of the palace to the gates along with what looked to be a large lizard. The five lined up before their master and never before seen visitor and waited. Master Oogway announced "The is Dow Chi he is the last of a very old species and is also an old friend of mine." The 6 and half foot lizard bowed before the young students and introduced himself in a monotone like voice "Hello young warriors it is a pleasure to meet you all." the five students bowed in respect and replied in unison "It is a pleasure to meet you as well Master Dow Chi." "Actually." Master shifu corrected an annoyed expression masking his face "Dow Chi is not a Master" Master Shifu finished barely keeping his cool demeanor. Dow Chi then continued to speak in his monotone voice "Master Shifu is correct I am not a master at all. I am instead the last remaining Barbaturex Morrisoni warrior." The five students looked at each other their bewilderment obvious. Bringing her paw up tigress was about to ask what a Barbaturex Morrisoni Warrior was but was unable. Due to Master Oogway saying "There are times when flowers bloom and times that they simply don't."

Oogway turned to face the five students and asked "Is everyone ready?" in unison the five students answered "Yes Master" Oogway smiled and announced "Good, Shifu will be staying at the palace to watch over things along with Dow Chi, while we're gone." all the five warriors nodded in understanding. With the furious five leaving for who knows how long the valley of piece will be vulnerable to thieves and bandits. Master shifu pleaded with Grandmaster Oogway "Master I wish you would let me take the students to the temple myself." turning back to face shifu Oogway replied with his calm demeanor "It is quite alright shifu. I have matters to attend to as much as you do." Shifu then started "But Master I-" but Oogway had interrupted shifu saying "Shifu do you not trust in your own master or your students?" shifu ashamed flattened his ears and apologized "Forgive me master I meant nothing by it." Oogway smiled at shifu and said "I know my friend. Everything will be alright." having said that Oogway turned to the five and calmly informed "It's time to take our leave." the five warriors stepped aside making a path for the old tortoise and soon followed behind.

With a sad expression shifu watched his master and students make their way down the thousand steps. Dow Chi stood beside Master shifu and placed his clawed hand on the red panda's shoulder and said reassuringly with his usual monotone voice "They will be fine shifu, you must have faith in them if they are to succeeded in there travels." Still Watching his master and students leave to increase their skills for a fight that has been going on for a millennium shifu replied "You're right but I fear their troubles have all but begun." Before leaving Dow Chi to go meditate. A few minutes of watching his old friend leaving the entrance of the village Dow Chi thought too himself "I believe you may be right shifu." before looking up at the morning sky, the sun creeping up behind the mountains creating a beautiful mixture of red, orange and yellow with no clouds in the sky.

With Renhon...

Renhon was starting to slowly come to. Trying to bring his paw up to the throbbing on the side of his head, quickly realizing he wasn't able to move his arms. Upon farther inspection ren noticed a series of rope across his chest and followed the rope down his arms with his eyes to see he was tied to a tree. After discovering his current situation ren heard laughing not far into the distance. Taking his mind off being tied to a tree, renhon notice he was on the edge of an encampment. There were buffalo, fox, goats and wolves all around a giant bon-fire laughing and carrying on conversations. Though ren's hearing wasn't as good as his mothers, he was still able to just barely hear two wolves talking. The first wolf said with irritation "I still don't understand why we had to bring the lone mutt with us." the second wolf with his mouth full mumbled "Because the boss told us too. Besides he might be our new punching dummy or something." with skepticism the first wolf said "I highly doubt that. I mean what's so special that we had to carry him all day yesterday?" popping the last of the bread in his mouth the second said "There's nothing special about the kid. If you ask me he's just another beast of some sort, that never should've been brought into this world in the first place. It has no purpose in this world and there will never be a place in this world for the creature." the first wolf countered "If there's nothing special about the sixth wonder of the world, then tell my how it was able to kill a warrior at a skill level that you and I could only wish we could reach in our life. Not only that but was able to severely injure the second in command, Tell me that." The second wolf stated simply "It was beginners luck, everyone has it." the first wolf still skeptical said "I don't believe it was blind luck. What ever it is I don't like it. Come on its our turn to patrol the camp." With that the two went to relieve two other wolves of duty.

Slowly everything that happened the day before came back starting with when he woke up the morning before. Renhon started to think to himself. "I remember waking up, going down stairs, finding a stranger in the house, eating breakfast, and then...then...what happened after that?" as ren was trying to put the pieces together the soldier that renhon had savagely attacked, saw on the opposite side of the camp that ren had come to and started making his way over to him. "I can't remember anything after eating...And another thing why does it hurt when I breathe?" ren thought to himself trying his hardest to remember what happened. Renhon saw a shadow cover him looking up to see a buffalo with his right arm bandaged up and a look of anger plastered on to the buffalo's face.

The subordinate smiled grimly saying "You finally decided to wake up you little brat." pulling his left arm back the buffalo finished "This time that flea bag you call a mother isn't here to help." finally throwing his fist at ren's face full force. When the subordinate connected with the pups jaw ren's head smacked the back of the tree making a loud thud *thump* blood started to drip down ren's chin and now the back of his head was throbbing. Ren slowly looked up at the subordinate anger and hatred visible in his eyes. Renhon's adrenaline started going and as calmly as possible said "Take that back." The subordinate smiled saying "And what if I don't?" in a mocking tone. Renhon looked at the buffalo and said "I'll force you." The subordinate all of a sudden started laughing "HaHaHaHaHa Haaa that's funny, but you're missing one important detail." the subordinate explained "I'm not tied to a tree like you." the buffalo knelt down beside ren and whispered "Besides why would you want to defend the woman that didn't even bother to help you?" renhon looked at the buffalo his eyes a cold steel blue and said "How could she when she was being held down by you scumbags?" The subordinate leaned in closer and he said "You're right... you know what? I think I'll go back and kill her." renhon's eyes still cold as steel whispered under his breath "I dare you." the buffalo's smile was replaced with a look of confusion "Huh What was that... Are you talking to yourself." The fire in ren started to increase from a small blaze to an uncontrollable force of nature. Barely able to keep from yelling renhon struggled "I dare you." his voice noticeably shaky.

Ren's breathing had quickened his adrenaline started going and all he wanted was to feed the buffalo his own fist. Feeling smug the subordinate said "Well would you look at that. The mutt's angry. Better put that in the facts section in the ugly species book." after taking a second the buffalo continued "What I find funny is that you actually think she loves you. You honestly think that someone could love something that looks like it belongs in a nightmare." as the subordinate finished Renhon shot out at the subordinate with his jaws but was restrained by the ropes, resulting in ren landing on his back. Laughing the buffalo bellowed "You can't break from those ropes. No matter how hard you try." renhon started to pull against the rope his adrenaline pumping, the only thing on his mind, ripping out the subordinates tongue. The subordinate continued to laugh uncontrollably until he heard a loud snap *snap*. Renhon was now standing and some how was breaking the ropes. Snap after snap the subordinate just stood there in shock and watched as ren started to break free.

Nebol had been walking around the camp and saw ren was breaking free of the rope. The buffalo continue to watch as the high quality rope was snapping at ren's will, a stern voice shouted behind the buffalo "Xing! What are you doing?!" startled the buffalo turned and looked his commander in the eyes and turned back to the cross bred creature asking with shock in his voice "What is he?" Nebol saw blood on his subordinates hoof and looked at the mixed breed who had a swollen eye and black blood running down his nose and chin. Not looking away from ren nebol ordered with a booming voice "Go get the troops and get the chains, rope's not going to hold him!" Xing turned to his commander and starting "But sir-" the small badger cut his subordinate off and shouted "Was that not an order?" xing stood staring at the commander until he finally conceded "Yes sir." the buffalo turned leaving to get the rest of the troops and chains.

As xing was leaving renhon shouted in an almost demonic voice "Get back here you coward!" Nebol prepared himself as ren broke from the last of the ropes. Ren not moving stood in place slouched arms now free hanging in front of him with his head hanging as if he was fatigued. Nebol watched ren carefully, ready to keep the beast from hurting anyone else. What seemed like hours nebol started to wonder "What's he waiting for" as nebol finished his thought as if on command renhon rushed the badger with incredible speed, ren swung, barley able to dodge nebol side stepped to the right. Ren swung his outstretched arm to the right catching nebol off guard with greater speed than when rushed. Ren's forearm made contact with nebol's head sending him flying across the field. Upon impact with ground dust rose in the air to the point you could barely see. Nebol staggered as he stood back up, "Where did he get all the speed, but it's not the speed but his strength as well." ren came flying through the dust cloud towards nebol. Nebol's eyes widen with shock as ren came crashing down on him. It wasn't the shock of ren jumping through the cloud but the color of renhon's eyes. Instead of ren's usual steel blue eyes they were now a burning blood red. Not having enough time to dodge nebol brought his arms up block the attack. Nebol was overcome by the attack and was sent flying back yet again. Expecting the beast to make another move nebol was confused when it started laughing "Hahahahahahah do you not see this power ren? This is real power, you are too weak minded of person to understand it. Hahahahaha oh it feels great not being crammed in your head ren." the creature in ren dropped on all fours and rushed nebol again. Doing his best to parry his opponents various combinations of kicks and punches.

Nebol had to think of something fast before he lost this fight. Seeing his opponent unfocused the creature in ren brought his knee up connecting with the badgers jaw, lifting nebol off his feet ren grabbed nebol by the head in mid-air and slammed nebol into the ground making an indent. Ren swiftly brought his leg up and was about to bring his foot down on nebol's chest, when out of nowhere a log smacked ren in the side sending him flying a few feet landing on his back. "You are a disgrace to my name. How dare you let yourself be so easily defeated by this... amateur?" nebol looked up to see a figure standing over him, with the sun behind the figure it created a shadow that covered the figures face, as well as creating a golden aura around the figures body.

By now xing had returned with the rest of the troops with the chains in hand. Xing and the troops stopped dead after seeing another figure standing over their commander. Xing looked over at the mutt to see it had gotten up. Xing shouted at the top of his lungs "Commander Look out!" while pointing at the direction of the mutt. At the same time of Xing's warning the beast in renhon had launched itself at nebol and the newcomer, moving a chunk of the ground where the beast was standing in the process. In a matter of seconds the beast was on top of both the newcomer and nebol. The entire world seemed to greatly slow. The newcomer shot a glare at what was rushing towards the two. Calmly and swiftly the newcomer brought his arm up in the last second and caught ren's fist stopping the creature instantaneously. All the power behind the beasts speed colliding with the pure strength of the newcomer caused a gust of wind to form flying passed the newcomer who didn't budge an inch. The newcomer was now holding the beasts fist. Without warning the newcomer swiftly and unexpectedly pulled the beast full force towards himself slamming both their heads together. The beast controlling ren collapsed at the feet of the newcomer.

A/N: I apologize if the story is a little on the every which way direction. I have a bad habit about that and I'm working on it.
