Part 7

My world swirled around and around and around. Nothing made sense. What was I to do? The panda made his way to the burning tree symbol. I had hated when dad chose that beautiful symbol of nature and destroyed it. He knew how much I loved nature...

"What's this?" the panda asked.

"That's my father's symbol. He's after me."

Then my FAVORITE warrior IN THE WORLD stepped up and looked me right in the eye! Her face was full of concern.

"What would he do that?" she questioned.

I sighed and began to tell my story.

"Long ago when I was a cub, I lived happily in a small hut with my father. The best thing was that my cousin lived right next door! I got to see her almost everyday! Then one day, dad was offered a job with some secret service. We needed the money, so we had to accept. Since it was secret, he couldn't talk about his job. Then everything changed, somehow, dad got home from work and he was totally changed. He acted REALLY weird! My cousin and I had to get to the bottom of this. My cousin found out what was up, but before she could tell me, dad caught her. Now she is being held hostage."

I was close to tears. The last sentence was hard to get out. "My own father is after me!" I cried.

I couldn't help it, after 3 months on the run; I had to let out some tears. I must have looked really weak there. Paws in my head, tears rolling down my cheeks...

Then Po came over and pulled me into a bear hug. "Hey, everything's going to be alright. You're in safe hands now." he soothed.

I wiped away a tear. "Really?"

"Really. Now let's go to the Jade Palace. We'll get you a meal."

"Do you have chicken?" I croaked.

He chuckled a little bit. "Yes, we do."

"Hey, what should we do with his person?" Monkey called.

"Bring it with you." Tigress said. "We'll question it later."

And with that, we headed to a new place to call home.
