Description of my own created characters
Húdié: A young tall gazel. She's very smart girl. Idolized Mantis even when he was in the Furious Five. Youngest of her family. Wears a blue and black robe
Jian-Fen: A female skunk. She is about as tall as Shifu. Wears a green chinese kung fu vest with a silver pattern, black silk pants, and is bare footed
Xue-Min: A male crocodile. He wears brown pants and a silver belt. He is very smart and cunning. Once a criminal, he was reformed by Viper
Spider: A male spider. Wears no close. He's antisocial towards everyone except Viper. Only cares about getting stronger and helpful to Viper
(At the Garnet Palace, students were sparring with each other while Viper was watching them. Mantis was with her; he was showing how his student was against one of her students)
Viper: It seems your student is very talented; she has the right stuff, but she lacks control and patience. Haven't you been working on that?
Mantis: I teach her what I can. Besides, I came here to see if you would take her as your student. I can't teach her anymore.
Viper: I should have known. What happened to you Mantis? You were never like this before. Did Po's disappearance really affect you that much?
Mantis: Po is dead. Think about Viper. We searched all over China for him and we would have heard of his exploits if he went to a foreign land. And ever since he disappeared, the citizens of China have basically ignored us; it was like Po mattered more than us.
Viper: That shouldn't matter. We didn't become members of the Furious Five for glory. We did it to protect others.
Mantis: That may be true, but how is we get passed off as masters that no longer matter anymore. We saved China more than Po has yet he became the big star. I'm leaving.
Húdié: Master Mantis! Where are you going? Should I get my things?
Mantis: No! I talked it over with Viper; you're going to be her student at the Garnet Palace.
Húdié: But...I want to learn from you.
Mantis: Viper is more equipped to train you better than I could. Besides, I've decided to retire.
Húdié: But why? The Mantis I looked up to would never give up or let his size determine what enemy he could defeat. What ever happened to the hero I grew up idolizing?
Mantis: Like the Dragon Warrior, he's dead.
Húdié: But the Dragon Warrior is not dead. You sometimes see his ghost whenever we passed through the Valley of Peace and you follow it when you think I'm not looking. So if you manage to see him like that, then you must still be the Master Mantis that I know and idolize.
(Mantis leaves without saying a word to her or Viper.)
Viper: Don't worry, he'll come around sooner or later. Mantis may have a short temper and is a little unreasonable, but he manages to bounce back. And I know he's going to be at the Cherry Blossom festival so you can try and convince him to teach you again. (to her students) Thats enough for tonight. Jian-Fen, show Húdié to your room; she's going to be staying with us for a while.
Jian-Fen: Yes Master Viper. (to Húdié) Don't worry, you'll love our room and I'm sure you'll love this place too. Especially since the last Master was kicked out, this place has received a better reputation.
(Then two of Viper's students arrived; their names are Spider and Xue-Min)
Viper:(to Spider and Xue-Min) Have you two delivered the package to Master Shifu?
Spider and Xue-Min: Yes Master Viper.
Viper: Good. Now rest up, we continue drills tomorrow.
Spider and Xue-Min: Yes Master Viper.
Viper:(to herself) So Mantis is seeing Po's ghost like I have. I don't think he's dead; it wouldn't make any sense that someone killed him and not bragged about it. I just hope that branch I found in that private storage will help Shifu figure out what happened to Po. I miss him after all this time.
