Morning had risen over the valley of peace once again and the gong had ringed signaling the master to come out of their rooms to greet their master.
"Good morning master" the masters said as they raced out of their rooms to greet Shifu all but one and it wasn't Po.
"Morning students how are y" Shifu said as he began to greet his students but as he did he noticed one was missing and it was the last person he would expect not to be out of her room as it was Tigress.
"Do any of you know where Tigress is" Shifu asked as he looked at the others hopeing they would know the answer to his question but all he heard was silence until Po stepped forward.
"I think she is still in her room master" Po said as he looked down at Shifu and pointed his finger towards Tigress room as it seemed her door wasn't open yet and thought that was the best place she would be.
"Thank you Po" Shifu said as he bowed to Po and then headed towards Tigress room and as he did he began to hear coughing coming from the room and began to walk a little faster.
"What's happening" Tigress said as she was coughing into a little rag and looked into it as it blood on it and this wasn't the only time this happened as this happened off and on for the past few weeks but figured it would just pass by soon.
"Tigress are you ok" Shifu said in a calm voice as he opened her door only to see her back and as he opened the door she clinched the rag into her fist not wanting to let her father and friends know with what was happening as she didn't want them to worry them.
"Yeah I just wasn't feeling that well but I'm fine now" Tigress said with a smile to her father to let him know she was alright.
"Alright well when you and the others are ready start your training" Shifu said as he then left the room and walked past the others to the sacred hall of warriors to begin his meditation.
"Well let's get to it" Monkey said as he left for the training hall and the others began to follow all except for Po as he waited for Tigress as he felt like walking with her and just talking.
"Morning Po" Tigress said as she walked out of her room and began to walk towards Po letting a few coughs out.
"Morning Tigress are you ready for some intense training" Po said with a smile on his face as the two began to walk to the training hall.
"You know it" Tigress said confidently as she clinched her fist and sent it into the palm of her other hand and looked over at Po.
"Just to let you know Tigress I think I'm going to beat you today in training" Po said with a grin as he had always to win at least one match against her but could never do it. But for some reason he felt like he was going to do today.
"Oh yea we shall se" Tigress said with a grin but then stopped dead in her tracks as she grabbed her side and began to clinch her face as she felt a huge sharp pain coming from her side.
"Tigress what's wrong" Po said with worry as he rushed over to her as he could tell she was in pain but he didn't know why.
"Nothing Po I'm fine" Tigress said as she felt the pain go away and began to stand up straight again letting her friend know that she was ok.
"Are you sure you looked like you were in pain" Po said with worry in his voice and still couldn't help but feel that she was still in pain.
"Yes I'm alright don't worry about it" Tigress said as she put her paw on his shoulder and smiled at him and began to walk past him to the training hall where the others were.
"Alright" Po said with some sadness in his voice as he felt like she wasn't telling him something but figured he shouldn't argue with her after all she could kick his but.
The two then continued their way to the training hall until they eventually got their and then stood on opposite sides of one another and got in their fighting stances.
"Tigress get ready to feel the thunder" Po said as he took his fighting stance and grinned over at the feline as he was ready to fight.
"Bring it Po" Tigress said with a smile on her face as she too got in her fighting stance and then charged at Po as Po did the same and the two began to engage each other.
As Po charged at Tigress he jumped in the air and flung his leg towards the top of her head but only to have Tigress cross her arms in an x over her head blocking his kick and then flung his leg off of her and then sent her palm to his stomach causing him to stumble back and as he did she swiped her leg at Pos legs causing him to fall flat on the ground on his back.
"Impressive as always Tigress" Po said with a smile and then used his arms to push him up off the ground and back to his feet.
"But now it's my turn" Po said with seriousness in his voice and then charged at Tigress with full force and she got ready for what he was about to do.
Po then launched another kick to Tigress only for her to grab it but that was intention as he then brought his other leg up and kicked her in the side and as he did Tigress felt the pain come back but this time it was even worse than before as she let go of Pos leg and grabbed her side. Po then seen this as an opportunity and figured it was the best time to strike.
"Alright I'm going to win" Po thought with excitement as he then threw a punch towards Tigress stomach but as he did she coughed up blood causing Po to stop dead in his tracks as he feared he might of gone too far.
"TIGRESS" Po shouted as he rushed over to her and caught her in his arms as she began to fall towards the ground.
"Po it hurts so much" Tigress said as she began to cry from the pain as she grabbed her side clinching it and kept coughing up blood causing Po to be scared and frightened.
"GO GET SHIFU" Po shouted to his friends and as he did Viper went to go get Shifu while the others rushed over to Po and Tigress and were shocked to see how Tigress looked.
"MASTER SHIFU" Viper yelled as she slithered into the sacred hall of warriors trying to get Shifus attention and that she did as he snapped out of his meditation and turned to Viper.
"What's wrong" Shifu said with quickness in his voice as he wondered why Viper was shouting and figured something was wrong.
"Its Tigress something's wrong with her" Viper said with worry in her voice and as she did Shifu began to run towards the training hall along with Viper and was scarred to see what he saw when he got there.
"Po what happened" Shifu asked the panda as he rushed over to them and looked down at his daughter who was breathing heavily and was crying.
"I don't know master we were training and she began to cough up blood" Po said as he looked up at Shifu with a scared face as he didn't know or why this was happening.
"We need to get her to a hospital now" Shifu said with seriousness in his eyes as he headed off to the valley along with the others and Po carrying Tigress in his arms as he seemed to be running the fastest.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH" Tigress shouted as she felt like her side was being stabbed with a thousand swords over and over again and kept letting the tears fall from her eyes and was scared.
"Just hold on Tigress we are almost their" Po said as he looked down at Tigress as he felt his heart race and just wanted to get to the hospital as fast as he could.
As they continued their way down to the valley they had finally reached it and ran to the hospital bursting through the doors and ran to the front desk.
"SHE NEEDS HELP PLEASE" Po yelled as he was the first to the counter and wanted someone to help Tigress right away and as the nurse looked down she seen the condition the tiger was in and knew this was an emergency.
"WE NEED HELP NOW" the nurse shouted and as she did about 5 employees came running down the hall with a stretcher and placed Tigress on it and ran towards the nearest empty room they had and following them was Po and the others until they had finally reached a room and the employees ran in there with Tigress and as Po and his friends were about to enter they were stopped by a doctor.
"I'm sorry but you have to stay out here" the doctor said as he stopped them as he couldn't have them in there.
"But were her friends" Po said as he tried to convince the doctor to let them in as they wanted to be by her side and wanted to know what was happening.
"Even if you are you still have to stay out here when we are done we will let know when you can come in" the doctor said as he then rushed into the room shutting the door behind him and the curtain inside the room so no one could see what was happening.
"Come on Po let's sit they will let us know" Monkey said as he patted his friend on the back and took a seat in the waiting hall along with the others but Po just couldn't sit he had to stand so when they do come and get them he would be the first in there.
As they patiently waited for what felt like hours or days after about 50 minutes the doctor calmly came out and as he did the others jumped up and ran up to him.
"You can now go in" the doctor said calmly but as he did he had some sadness in his voice as he had some news for them.
"Tigress" Po said as he rushed over to Tigress who had tubes in her arms with fluids going into her with a blanket over her and an oxygen mask helping her breath.
"Hey guys" Tigress said in a soft voice as she looked up at her friends and smiled a little.
"Are you ok Tigress" Viper said as she began to let a few tears fall from her eyes as she sad to see Tigress like this.
"Oh yeah I feel awesome" Tigress said with a smile as she looked over at her friend but began to cough again causing her smile to disappear. And sadness came to her eyes.
"Can I please have everyone come into the hall" the doctor said in a soft tone and as he did everyone then began to walk slowly out of the room and as they did the doctor closed the door slowly and then looked at them.
"So is she alright doctor" Mantis asked as he figured Tigress might have just over worked herself to much but it was so much more than that.
"Well not exactly you see Tigress is severely ill from an infected kidney" the doctor said as he looked through the window and seen Tigress lying there and then looked back at the others who eyes were wide opened.
"Infected kidney" Crane said as he never thought Tigress was sick as she had never shown any signs of it and plus he thought she could never get sick.
"Yes luckily though you got her here in time for us to slow down the infection but" the doctor said as he didn't really want to tell them the next thing.
"But what doc" Po said as he wanted to know what he was going to say as he needed to know everything with what was wrong with her.
"It's too far infected and she is going to need a transplant if she has any chance of survival" the doctor said and as he did the others couldn't believe what he had just said and had to take seat to process it.
"A transplant" Po said with a scared tone as he looked through the window at the sick Tigress and know they would have to find a donor.
"How long do we have" Po asked with seriousness in his voice as he needed a time limit.
"Well with the way she is now I would say about 3 days tops maybe 4" the doctor said as he looked over at the panda.
"Then we have our time limit 3 or 4 days to find a donor for her and we will find one" Po said with seriousness as that he now had his time limit he knew he had to get everyone in the valley to give the hospital blood samples to see who matches with Tigress and Po and the others are also going to do the same as they hoped they would find someone.
Thanks for reading chapter 1 guys and I hoped you liked it. Also yes I know a person can survive with one kidney but for Tigress that's not the case but anyways remember to review and tell me what you think thanks.
