A Peacock's Harem

He finally did it. After twenty long years, Shen came back from his banishment, used his new weapon to conquer Gongmen City, and defeated not only the Kung Fu Council but the Dragon Warrior as well. The pleasure he felt when he launched that firework ball at Master Thundering Rhino to blow him into thousands of little pieces could not be compared to anything else. So imagine how big the pleasure of blowing up the Dragon Warrior felt!

With this flabby panda gone, no one could stand in his way of domination over China. The remaining Masters could not do anything and had to either run away or die trying to protect their pathetic excuse of an art. But in the end, it did not change anything. Shen's fleet left Gongmen City to go conquer every city in China one after the other, starting with the Masters' precious Valley Of Peace.

After seeing the infamous city fall down, many criminals and mercenaries decided to join the white peacock's army and help in his conquer of China. Before long, the fleet became so big that even the almighty Emperor could not do anything to stop his destruction. After conquering every city in the country, it was time to assault the biggest one: Imperial City.

The battle of Imperial City would forever be remembered in history. So many lives were lost, so much blood flew on the city's ground, so many screams. All of this before the Emperor was forced to surrender. Shen publicly executed him the following day and proclaimed himself the new Emperor of China. Everyone who did not bow down to him would get executed, tortured... or even both.

For the next five months, everything went smoothly for the new Emperor. Nobody dared oppose him or his new regime. Every single order he gave was instantly executed; his every wish came true. He could now live in his parents' rebuilt tower in Gongmen like he always wanted to.

And yet, something was missing.

He had the military power, luxury, and respect that someone of his ambition wished for. But one thing missed in his life: women.

So obsessed with getting revenge against Kung Fu Masters and regaining his place in China's society, Shen forgot to plan on how he would find a female counterpart and mate. After all, every Emperor needed his Empress. The problem was that peacocks were rare and hard to find in China, so peahen were even worse for that matter. He didn't have the luxury of getting mated with a common animal like a goose or a goat. Nothing in his possession could satisfy his... personal needs. Not a single woman in Gongmen City, being a commoner or a dancer, picked his interest.

Right now, he proudly sat on his throne - not his father's; he tossed that one out the window - inside his throne room and watched a beautiful dance performed by his sister, Fan He. Pure white feathers covered a wonderful, radiant face. Emerald green eyes, set handsomely within their sockets, watched warmly over the brother they've come to appreciate for so long. Her long, silver silk robe flowing with grace as she performed an elegant dance to entertain her Emperor.

Few know the true Fan He, but perhaps most important is that she's disciplined and compassionate. Of course she's also orderly, dutiful and lovable, but they're often slightly tainted by a mindset of being devious as well. Her gentleness, though, this is what she's most well-liked for. People regularly count on this and her sense of humor when they're feeling down. Nobody's perfect of course and Fan He has plenty of rainy days too. Her treachery and craziness can cause things to heat up and make things uncomfortable to say the least. Fortunately, her compassion usually softens the worst of it.

Shen left his sister at his secret exile base while he went back to Gongmen for he didn't want to put her in harm's way and risk losing the last true family he had. Once his conquest was accomplished, he made sure Fan He could live in the comfort he promised her for so long and also bought her the most beautiful dresses that could be found in the land. Because she deserved to expose her beauty and grace to all... but there was another reason.

If he could not find a mate soon... Shen would have no choice but to take Fan He - his own sister - as his mate. Not that she wasn't beautiful or wouldn't make a good mate, but the simple idea of... "doing it" with his sister felt wrong to him.

As Fan He finished her dance, she opened her tail feathers and took an elegant pose to satisfy her brother. This last one gave a simple nod and rose his wing. "Can you leave me alone for a moment, dear sister?"

Bowing, Fan He turned around and headed for the room's exit gate, her tail feathers swinging elegantly behind her. She passed by Wolf Boss who, in contrast, entered the throne room. He bowed on one knee to the peacock who was both his lord and his best friend. "My Lord."

"What do you want, Wolf Boss?"

"I have come because I noticed something is bothering you, my Lord."

Shen rose an eyebrow. "What are you talking about? Everything is perfectly fine. I have no problem."

"With all due respect, sir, I've known you since we were children. After so much time, I learned to distinct when something is bothering you. Please, tell me what it is. I want to see if I can help you with it."

Shen thought about it... and sighed. Wolf Boss has been his closest friend and ally since the very beginning. If he could trust someone, it was him. "Fine, you're right. I am worried about my future as a mate."

"Why is that?"

"You know we have yet to find a peahen anywhere in China. The problem is that if we cannot find any in the years to come... I will have to mate with my own sister. And to be honest, this idea doesn't appeal to me in the slightest."

"Do not worry, sir; my men are doing everything in their power to find a female for you to mate with," Wolf Boss promised.

"That's not all, Wolf Boss. There's something else. You see... I never really had a girlfriend in my whole life. And, as ashamed as I am to admit it, I feel the need to..."do it", if you see what I mean."

Wolf Boss chuckled a bit in understanding. "I happen to have the perfect solution to your problem, sir."

Shen rose a curious eyebrow. "I listen."

"Some of the ancient Emperors used to create these things called "harem" in their throne rooms to satisfy their desire. They would bring the most beautiful dancers across the land - and even beyond - to their throne room so that they could entertain and... satisfy them. It would be good to build your own, don't you think?" the wolf asked with a smirk.

Shen's eyes widened. That was a wonderful idea! While his search for a peahen would go on, there was no reason for him to not surround himself with the most beautiful women in the country and force them to do his binding. That was any noble man's dream... and he was the Emperor!

Yes, Shen was going to bring the most beautiful women in all of China to his throne and make his own harem. The Peacock's Harem!

I have been on this site for a relatively short time, but I always wanted to write my own harem story. Shen happens to be the perfect character to build his own harem and Kung Fu Panda has plenty of beautiful women in it. So it seemed like the perfect place to write this fanfic. Now, I haven't decided if there will be explicit adult stuff in this story, but if I decide to put some, this will have to change from a T to M rating.

I already know who will be Shen's first target, but I'm still open for suggestions. Who do you guys think Shen should try to capture for his harem and what should he do with them? Just so you know, I won't write anything too cruel including gore and death. May the gods watch over you all.
