Chapter 3: The Surprises

"Come Po, we must train. For the times ahead will be harsh. Also, I have something to show you." Said master Shifu to Po.

"Yes master." Po answered.

After helping the villagers put out the fire, Po and Shifu started up the stairs to the Jade Palace.

"Master Shifu."

"Yes Po."

"That group that attacked us, do you have any knowledge on them.

"Why yes Po, I do, that is what I am going to show you."

"But master, what was that thing that attacked us. And why did they attack us, and why-."

"I said I will tell you later." Said Shifu.

When they got to the Jade Palace, Po was out of breath (as usual). Shifu quickly went inside the Hall of hero's for a few minutes and came outside with something on his back.

"Come Po, now, you must see what others can't see. Only certain people can see this. It is more powerful than the Dragon Scroll."

Shifu then held out the item in front of him.

"Whoa." Said Po.

*Meanwhile on a cart going to the Shenzu Hideout*

"Unhh. Wha…What happened." Tigress managed to stammer out. She then checked the environment around her, as master Shifu had told her to do when she was in an unfamiliar environment. She first felt the floor she was on and surprisingly found a chain attached to it. It had straw all over the floor with a wooden bottom. She tried to move her foot but she also found another surprise, her foot was the thing in the chain. Then she decided to see what was going on around the cart. When she found the strength to look over the cart, she did. The first thing she saw was another cart. In fact, she saw 3 other carts. She then knew who was in those carts.

"Viper…Monkey…Mantis." Tigress whispered to the other carts.

"Ye…Yes. Man my head hurts," Said a very hurt Viper, "Tigress, are you okay?

"Yeah, I'm fine. Where's Monkey, Mantis, Crane, Po and master Shifu?"

"I think Monkey and Mantis are in the carts beside us. Crane disappeared after we fought the warriors. I don't know where Po and master Shifu is. I got knocked out before I could see." Then Tigress got a chance to see Viper in the light. The master had a huge bruise across her head with scars over her back. Every time Tigress saw her move she wince.

"Viper, are you okay?" Said a very sincere Tigress.

"Yeah, it's just a scratch."

"QUIET PRISONERS!" Came a very loud and demanding voice from the front of the cart.

"Unhh, flying bananas. Pants. Giant monster! Run! Ahhhhhhh!" Monkey yelled at the top of his lungs.

"I SAID QUIET YOU LITTLE RUNT!" Then Tigress and Viper heard the sickening snap of a whip in the other cart. Then they heard the equally sickening scream Monkey gave when it hit.

"Okay masters," Announced the sarcastic guard, "we are here."

Tigress and Viper looked to the right of their cart.

"Oh my god." They both said in unison.

*Crane*

"If these guys want to fight, come and get it." Crane thought to himself. When he saw the enemy line come charging at him, he flew up into the air and sent a medium gust of wind at the lions and the gust momentarily stunned them.

"Perfect. Now to just- WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!" Crane then saw the ugliest and biggest thing he had ever seen. The first thing that he noticed was the smell. It was like Po coming out of the Bathroom after triple bean burrito day, then rolled in skunk poop, got eaten by pig, regurgitated and then eaten again by a shark, died and then pooped out.

And the way it looked. It was like a pig-donkey-horse-ape-lion-alien-witch hybrid that grew 100 warts for children. It had snot running down its crooked nose and sweat dripping down from its hair. It had a brown colored fur all over its body. And it was about 40 feet tall. But it was asleep.

"This is bad. Very very bad." Thought Crane to himself. He swooped into an opening in the fire where the Shenzus were and listened to what they were saying. But they were all silent, as if waiting for orders. Then Crane got a little to close to the monster and awoken it from its slumber.

"ROAAAAAAAAAAAR!" It roared. Then it took of out of the fire, right to where the other 6 was.

"Uh-oh." Said Crane. A little too loudly though. The Shenzus turned around and spotted Crane.

"Damn. I gotta go." He thought. He lifted his wings and took of into the sky. When he looked down, he saw that the Shenzus were still looking at him. He also saw that the monster went back to them. It also seemed that Tigress was in its hand. Taking one last look back, he thought they took everybody so he went through the night sky, seeking the only person he thought could help him…

I am finished with chapter 3. Man that was exhausting. And I'm sorry for any viewers who may think that this is like the story Budding Emotions, which is a great story, you should read it. So anyway, until next time.
