Crane returned to the Jade Palace with Monkey and Viper helping him carrying his unconscious student and put him to rest in his room in the barracks, he since he arrived with him stayed near him as much as he could outside training and he was praying to the gods that he would wake up soon. Crane once arrived was asked by Shifu what happened in Gongmen but he could barely say a word of the events, Viper took his place and told the Grand Master about all the events that occurred there; the reformation of Lord Shen, the fight with the monsters, with the man with two different faces, the fight and Harry's courage and determination during it. Shifu felt sorry for what happened to Crane's student and tried to do something to help him pass over it, all failed, the Crane master's attachment towards his student that formed over the years was really powerful and couldn't be deteriorated. Shifu hoped he will not become like him after the incident with Tai Lung, but in many cases it seemed certain, he was now blaming himself for his student's coma and during training he was reproaching himself for the failures very severely and that happened in the past two days since the battle.

Master Shifu while walking the corridor of the barracks he noticed Crane in Harry's room, the master was looking at the unconscious student with a heavy heart while holding the young one by the wing, in all this days that followed he never shed one drop of tear from his eyes although he knew it wasn't really good to keep everything inside him. But he didn't wanted the others to see that he was totally broken by the loss of his student, but all the masters, including the ones that returned a day ago could see the status he was.

"Crane, I know very well how you feel." Shifu said, but the bird couldn't turn around.

"I'm sorry." Crane remained silent for a moment.

"I didn't want this to happen, it's all my fault." Crane said with sadness.

"No one knew what trick that demon in stored for us. Not even you, it wasn't your fault." Crane took a deep breath.

"I should have been more careful about what was happening, in this way he wouldn't be in this status." He said holding his wing really tight.

"And now I don't even know if he will ever wake up. He is unconscious for three days now."

"You must not lose fate Crane; you must trust your student." Master Shifu said calmly.

"I trust him, he is much stronger then all of us think." He took a deep breath "But the battle was very hard and it exhausted him, I just hope that he will not…" He couldn't finish.

"If he will, at least he did it with honor." Master Shifu said before turning around to let Crane alone with his student, he could feel his heart full of sorrow at the prospect of losing one of the most dedicated students of the Jade Palace and the youngest of all who, despite all odds stopped an evil greater than they thought possible and reformed another.

"One of the most eminent pupils of the Jade Palace, gone. Why it had to happen like this." Shifu said silently and walked away. Crane remained in the room watching Harry with sorrow in his heart and while the time was passing he was beginning to feel something draining out from him and feel the way he never felt in years since he started to learn Kung Fu at the Lee Dhai, he was lame, he was a bad teacher for his student, he was useless, he was no more confident in him. And he was feeling that he might never see his student's pure emerald eyes, his waiting seems to have been in vain.

"Harry, if you can hear me I hope you have fond peace and I hope you are now happy, you are now with your parents again. Just for you to know you have been the best student I ever had. Forgive me for what happened." Crane said moving his head to the other end of the bed and took the blanket to cover him completely.

"It seems Po will eat those sweets." He said for the different sugar products in front of the bed. They appeared one day after the battle during the night. There were all sorts of different things like beans with strange flavors, sticky jellies, chocolate all sorts of it. Po snicker in one time and took a box of beans and ate some but he stopped immediately, he said that some taste like chilly or liver, or even like grass, wood, earwax even vomit but no one believed him for a bit.

….

Harry was watching as a face began come out from the smoke, first a serpant came then a skull and in just that moment the face with no nose that appeared and.

"AAAAAAAAA" he screamed as he was coming to him and in a blink of an eye.

….

"AAA!" Harry woke up abruptly and breathing heavily.

"Harry! Y-you're alive." Crane said all his lack of faith diminished and his heart was pounding with joy almost on the brink of getting out from his chest and barely managing to hold out the desire to hug him.

"M-master, what happened?" He asked, Crane smiled gently at him and coved him with the blanket to the neck.

"You don't need to worry Harry, everything is back to normal now, you made it." He said gently. "You defeated him."

"I….I did it?" He asked.

"Yes." Crane said.

"But what happened?"

"The demon made a trick to get away from us, he went through you and threw you into a coma that lasted three days, many though you were dead. Even I was losing fate in the last moment. But you are still alive; this is the most important thing." He said, his student smiled at him, he began to move in an attempt to get on his feet but.

"ARGH!" He felt a great pain on his left wing that was like thunder. "What the…"

He moved the blanket away and saw his wing wrapped tight in bandages with some sticks to keep it straight. He then remembered what happened during the battle.

"The bone of the wing was broken badly, we made you drink some of your healing potions as well as others we knew but we minimum effect, Mantis also tried some acupuncture but we had to call the doctor to consult you and said that your wing will be healed properly in two weeks." Crane said.

"I guess the healing potions I made don't work at more severe injuries." He said.

"In a way they worked, Mantis said that if it wasn't for the potions it would had to be removed but luckily it will heal completely." He said smiling.

"That means I can't do kung fu for two weeks." Harry said disappointed but relieved that it wasn't amputated.

"I know but it must heal properly, only after that you can retake your lessons." Crane said calmly.

"Yeah." Harry smiled before a though came to his mind. "But, what happened to Lord Shen, the master council and the others?"

"You don't need to worry; Lord Shen finally found inner peace thanks to you, he is now leading Gongmen city together with the master council." He said with a soft voice "And the others; Po, Tigress and Mantis returned yesterday." Harry smiled at his master, everything was a total victory.

"Oh." Crane remembered about the sweets.

"And…Last night you get those sweets, a note said that they came from some admirers but no one figured out who might they be. Po wanted to eat some but surprisingly he didn't even finish the first box he opened."

"Really why?" Harry asked laughing.

"He said they have some strange flavors like liver and grass even earwax and vomit flavors." Crane said laughing before handling a box of beans to him. He first took some red and green beans that tasted like chocolate and peppermint before turning to the others; they really tasted awful one tasted like liver, other like grass and the other like fish. He gave some to his master, some really were grows.

"Po was right they really have strange flavors."

"Yeah, I know but it seems that they depend on the color, the color represents the flavor of each bean." Harry said.

"I noticed, but still try to don't eat too many sweets; they aren't so good for recovering from such an adventure, only to regain morale." Crane said smiling.

"Yes master." Harry smiled back, Crane then went to the door to let his student rest.

"Well I will leave for you to get some rest." Crane said but Harry didn't want that much to sleep.

"Actually I would wish to get up after all those days." Harry said trying to get the blanket off him and tried to get on his feet but he could barely move his weakened body that it seem to weight like an elephant. Crane placed his right wing on him to stop.

"You are too weak to move for now, you need to stay and rest, if you want read something it would make the time to pass much more quickly." He said, Harry took several breaths before saying.

"All right master." And calmed himself down. Crane put the blanket back on him and gave something to read from his desk, his student took the book and looked back at his master smiling, crane smiled as well and walked to the exit; he turned his head to see him opening the book and reading, relief and happy he closed the door and went to training.

After several hours Harry managed to regain part of his strength and tried to move but not without difficulty he must hold on by something. His master was aiding him; they walked to the Hall of Heroes where he saw Master Shifu, Mantis, Viper and Tigress.

"Well well, look who wake up." Mantis said smiling.

"Well after three days of coma." Harry said sheepishly.

"We are glad that you are all right." Viper said smiling warmly.

"I know it was scary and crazy." Harry said.

"That battle was everything but crazy. There is no word to describe it." Tigress said.

"At least everything is over for now." He said.

"Indeed, and I have to tell you something." Master Shifu said.

"Yes Master Shifu."

"I might have not witnessed the battle, but I heard about what happened and what the purpose was." He said calmly. "You have shown a great courage in front of dangers, loyalty towards your master and you fought against an opponent who might have tried to destroy everything and tried to tempt you to give him a magical artifact that could give him back his lost powers by saying that he could give you power and bring back your family. But in spite of all this you refused."

"I know master." He said bowing his head to him.

"But still, why did you refused. In spite of all the gifts that you would have obtained?" He asked.

"I had several night mares that showed to me how my parents really died. I recognized his voice and I thought that my parents fought against him because he wanted power and was killing the people who refused his offer of using the power of darkness. And I knew that if he would have got his powers back he would have restarted his reign of terror, and maybe my parents would have rather died again then let this happen, he would surely killed me if he got the stone."

"True." Shifu said smiling softly.

"What happened to the stone?" He asked remembering about it.

"Lord Shen destroyed it; it broke into pieces, but…." Tigress stopped suddenly.

"But what?" He asked worried.

"Some strange lights appeared and took them." Viper said.

"Have some of them remained?" He asked.

"The lights took almost all of them." Shifu said before slowly taking out a box. "Except, this one." He opened the box to show a small curved red stone inside.

"This is all that remained from the stone." Mantis said while Harry picked the stone in his good wing to analyze.

"So…..What will you do with it?" Mantis asked making the young one turn to him.

"Me?" He asked confused.

"You have the power to bring back your parents. Isn't this the desires of your heart? Aside from turning everything into pure gold." Viper said, Harry looked at the piece in his wing and he looked around him, he might have now the power to bring his parents back it was great, but there was something else that both his mind and heart were telling now.

"I….can't do it." He said turning to Shifu and placed the piece back and closed the box.

"You can't but why." Shifu asked looking in his eyes.

"What I have learnt from this experience is that power only corrupts and attracts the worst. This power of resurrecting people from the dead is too tempting for everyone to have it, and it is not normal for people to decide other people's destiny, life or resurrect them from the dead or turn something into something else. It is not correct and it could only turn everything into something we don't want to happen. If my parents had to die in order to protect me and other people I can't interfere with it or change things. If I do that I might make things much worst then they are and it is wrong. It only destroys the balance of things and for this it isn't worth it. I should let things the way they have to be." Harry said. All the masters were smiling at him, what the youngling had just said was the most wise thing ever mentioned, Crane was the most proud of his student, and he was right no one should decided how the people's lives have to be or what destiny they should have.

"What you have just said are the words of a wise master." Master Shifu said to him. "Your parents would be very proud of you." Harry smiled and bowed to him.

"Thank you Grand Master."

"So what should we do with it?" Mantis asked.

"Master if I may, put it somewhere no one would know or dare to look, somewhere only you would know." Harry said.

"I know just the place." He said and then Po and Monkey rushed in from the main doors.

"Boy those bandits really weren't much for us." Monkey said.

"Yeah, especially after we give them a good lesson." Po said before noticing the others and surprisingly.

"Ha,ha Harry you truly are alive." Po said and took him us in his arms, which made Harry to growl in pain.

"Oups, sorry. Forgot about your injury." He said.

"No worries." He said.

"So have we decided on what to do with the stone?" Monkey asked.

"Master Shifu will lock it up somewhere. In any case no one will use it again." Tigress said.

"Oh great that is certainly great." Po said in a nervous tone, he surely did something.

"Po you did something with the stone?" Tigress asked suspicious.

"Well." He said in a squeaky voice and reached to his pocket to get out two keys made of gold?

"Po!" Tigress shouted.

"Sorry I couldn't stop, the thing of turning something into pure gold was really irresistible." He said.

"Maybe, but a wise man said once; although you turned a piece of lead into gold, inside it is still lead. You can't change what it was something at the beginning." Master Shifu said.

"But, it was by magic." Po said.

"Magic can give but it will take something from you one day." Master Shifu said.

"Yeah it took time; it took me a whole day till I figured what to put in the potion to get it right." Po said.

"So that was the main reason you skipped training" Tigress said in her usual manner.

"Well you can't say it wasn't fruitful." Po said trying to find a good point.

"Well Po you find what and managed to realize something and now time for training for all of you." Master Shifu ordered and all of them made to the training grounds, Harry followed them.

"Harry since you can't do kung fu for several days you will just you watch. Ok?" Crane asked.

"Yes master." He took a sit near the staircase, although he can't do Kung fu he will instead do magic, the time wouldn't be lost.
