Part VIII: Desperate Times...
When Tigress lay defenseless bound as tight as she was, she could still faintly hear someone come in. They had most likely entered quietly and were now whispering something to Junjie.
"Well it seems your little friends are coming to save you," he chuckled a moment later, "Perhaps it's time we set you two up for a... more private meeting place?"
She was bodily picked up by two of Junjie's flunkies while she was sure that Fenghuang was treated like wise. One carried her with their hands under her armpits and the other around her knees.
"Tell Po and the Five that if they ever want their Tigress back," he added, "Have them come to the Tiě Kuàng Iron Mines at sunset. If they come too early or too late, assure them that Tigress will have met a horrible fate." Their was a pause before he added, "No, I don't want you to kill any of them right now, but if one of them should get wounded taking the message..."
'Tiě Kuàng Iron Mines?' thought Tigress, 'Those were mined for all the ore the Imperium could find over 50 years ago. It's almost a death trap now because of the rotting timbers and rusty equipment.'
There was a swift sound followed by silence. Then she felt herself being rolled up inside a large Persian rug.
"Be careful," said Junjie gleefully, "There's no need to harm our guests before it's time to kill them."
'Yeah,' she thought, 'Your hospitality is in desperate need of work. I hope someone will take notice of snow leopards taking rolled up carpets out of town. Please be safe, Siberia. I don't know what I'd do if you were seriously hurt because of me...'
...
Meanwhile...
...
Shifu, Siberia and the remaining members of the Furious Five raced down the Palace stairs to meet Po in town.
"I've been looking around the battle site," he said, "and so far, I haven't found anyone who's seen Tigress, Fenghuang or any snow leopards since they fled from the Marketplace battle site."
"We need to split into pairs and search for any signs of them," said Shifu, "While I wouldn't normally suggest this, I know that as long as we in pairs, it will reduce the chances of being ambushed while vastly increasing our search speed."
The others nodded in agreement.
"But don't engage the enemy if you can help it," he continued, "Just do what you can to call the rest of us in to help."
They nodded again.
"Crane and Viper," he said, "Fly around together. You'll be specifically looking for Fenghuang."
Viper coiled about Crane's body as he shot up into the sky.
"Monkey and Mantis," he continued, "You two will be mainly looking for the snow leopards and Junjie."
Mantis hopped onto Monkey's shoulder as he lept to a rooftop.
"Po and Siberia," he added, "I want you to too look for Tigress. Remember, this is a search and rescue mission, so I want no showing off. I know you're both powerful Masters, but Junjie has decades of treachery on his side."
Po and Siberia nodded as they began moving off deeper into the village.
"Come on, Master Siberia," he said, "I know about a... seedier part of the Village. One where creeps like Junjie and his flunkies wouldn't be so out of place."
Siberia nodded as she followed along behind. The Village was his place and he knew it much better than she did. Po lead them to a rather shoddy bar at the edge of town, and even Siberia could sense that these were the criminals of the Village by the way they were glared at. By the way many of them began scurrying for hiding holes as soon as the two of them came into their view. But Po just boldly strolled in like he didn't even care.
The sound of stringed instruments came to her ears as they walked in. She noticed that a few naked maidens were up on the stage. A foxy vixen was playing an Erhu (a two stringed Chinese fiddle), a sow pig playing a Pipa (a four stringed Chinese lute), and a goat nanny plating a Konghou (a Chinese harp-like instrument). The men in the room seemed more than pleased with the soothing music as they chugged their beers and made small talk among themselves.
He slipped over to a large table with a half a dozen crocs sitting at it. He leaned over to the one with the iron pot helmet on and said softly, "Hey Fung, how's it shaking?"
"Hey," he replied, "I ain't done nothing in weeks."
"I know," said Po, "but I'm not here about you. Have you or your gang seen any snow leopards around here lately?"
"Snow leopards?" he asked, "How long ago?"
"They've been seen in town today, but most likely they've been here a few days spying for..."
"Panda. Why are you here bothering us?" asked a small figure from the next table over.
"Hey Tong Fo," he said as he looked over, "Fancy meeting you here. Get out of prison early for good behavior?"
"I get out when I feel it's time for me to get out," he replied evenly as he looked at the white tigress, "So who's your not so little friend here?"
"Oh," he said as he gestured to her, "This is Master Siberia of the Northern Shaolin Temple." Then he gestured to Tong Fo as he said, "And this is the local crime lord known as Tong Fo."
"A pleasure," he said.
"Likewise," she replied.
"So why are you looking for snow leopards at a time like this?"
"Because they're Master Junjie's flunkies," he replied, "and we think he's kidnapped Tigress."
"Oh, they're here in town alright," mused the large eyed loris, "and I'm sure it doesn't spell anything good for Tigress or Fenghuang."
"You're positive?" asked Siberia.
"There's very little that goes on in the Valley of Peace that I don't know about," he replied, "Especially when it comes to criminal and renegade Kung Fu Masters."
"And you're sure that Fenghuang was taken as well?"
"Oh yes," he said, "Tigress and the owl were ambushed with sleep powder while they battled in the marketplace." Then he paused as he added, "For a future favor, I'll tell you more."
"I don't know..."
"Whatever this favor is," replied Siberia, "I'll do it as long as I don't have to kill anyone."
"Any favor I want, you say?" he asked as he raised his eyebrows, "You really must have feeling for Tigress."
She nodded.
"Very well," he replied, "The deal is struck." He hopped of his stool and strolled towards the back room even as Po looked at Siberia questioningly. "Come along," he said as he looked over his shoulder, "I have someone I want you to meet back here. A new guest, shall we say?"
Po and Siberia followed him into the back room where they saw a hogtied snow leopard laying in the corner. She had been blindfolded, gagged and stripped to her loincloth before being bound rather completely. He calmly walked over and retrieved a note from next to her body before coming back with it.
"I believe this note contains all of the relevant information you need," as he handed it over to Po.
"Let's see," he replied as he opened the note and read it aloud, "Junjie insists we go to the Tiě Kuàng Iron Mines at sunset if we want to see Tigress and Fenghuang alive and in one piece. It says that if we come too early or too late, Tigress at the very least will suffer..." He paused to gulp. "Greatly."
"I promise I shall do your favor any time after I save Tigress," said Siberia.
"So you aren't leaving here any time soon?" asked Tong Fo.
"I am a shifu at the Jade Palace now for the foreseeable future," she replied, "As long as I'm still the second Master of Tigress, I shall not leave."
"Very well," he answered as he looked at the snow leopard, "Now what to do about this one?" He turned to look at Po as he said, "After all, Junjie is a bastard to doesn't care one lick for his flunkies, so you can't use her as a bargaining chip against him. To him, they are all expendable."
"I wonder how he always seems to have a full set of five minions," mused Po.
"I think that Junjie is probably blackmailing an entire village of snow leopards, but... he allows them go about their business as long as they keep he supplied with those willing to do his dirty work."
"Considering the things she's done for Junjie..."
"No!" said Siberia, "We can't leave her here if she's serving him against her will!"
"The boys were looking forward to playing with their new toy after sunset," he chuckled as he looked into Siberia's glare, "but very well, I'll adjust the favor you owe me in exchange for this one."
"Deal," she replied as she slung the snow leopard female onto her back. A few tweaks of the ropes by her left the female tied back to back with Siberia like a backpack.
"Well, it's nice we didn't duke it out this time," quipped Po as he followed Siberia out.
"Indeed," mused Tong Fo, "Indeed."
"Quick," said Po as he steered Siberia into the kitchen area, "We need to duck out the back way. The last thing I want to explain right now is why we have a snow leopard prisoner... in this state." He then grabbed a small red tablecloth from the supple room and used it to cover up the package on Siberia's back before they slipped out into the alleyway. Now Siberia did look like she was wearing a loaded backpack.
