Chapter 13: Complete Shock.
Harry froze. Unable to believe what Master Xing had just told him. "Your my what?"
"Your grandfather. Your mother, Lily, was my only daughter." Xing said.
Harry suddenly had a flashback to being held by a tiger man and cuddling into his warm furry arms.
"I remember you." Harry said. "Its faint, but I ind of remember you."
"I found your mother mere months before Voldemort killed her and your father." Xing started. "When your mother was born, the twenty second Masters War was just entering its final months." The Masters Wars win or die competition between China and Japan's martial arts masters. It was a literal war between China and Japan to see who was the best between the two nations. And whoever had the most Masters left at the end of the year, was declared the best for a hundred years. "Her mother, a human by the name of Maria, she didn't have a last name that I can remember, was her mother. I had a duty to our country and couldn't back out of the Wars so when Maria died, Lily was placed in an orphanage where she was adopted by the english Evans family at two months old. The orphanage refused to tell me who adopted her as to them, all adoptions where final. The Boh Ghom orphanage in the Valley of Peace isn't just an orphanage Harry, its also a baby brokerage."
Harry couldn't believe it. The orphanage where a lot of orphans come from to the palace to learn Kung Fu, the orphanage where Tigress came from, where also baby sellers. Then he remembered something. Tigress had told him about her time at the orphanage, and the only one brave enough to be friendly with her, was a human baby girl with bright green eyes. Could Tigress's first friend have been his mother?
"By the time I had found out what had happened, Dumbledore refused to tell me where he sent you. I had even insisted that I was the best person to raise you as I was your last living relative but he refused to believe that Lily was my daughter. With the wards in place around the Dursley house I could not find them. So imagine my shock when Severus came out and told the Professors that he had taken you to my own country. You where right under my nose the entire time. But by then you had settled into your own life with Shifu and so I decided to not interfere."
They had started walking a while ago. They stopped at a bench by the lake. Xing knelt on his knees and put a paw on Harry's shoulder. "I know this might be hard to understand Harry, but you are my grandson. My only grandchild. And I am happy I found you." He hugged Harry. And Harry had another memory of being hugged by the tiger man. "Now, its time for dinner." He said as he walked with Harry up to the castle.
To Be Continued...
