Sorry for the long wait. Just thought up of this chapter when I was bored. So, I decided to let everyone here see Pyro and what he looks like now.
Chapter 8: Pyro's Revenge
In Kumango Valley near the Wudang Mountains, where croc and rhino hill is located in, Pyro the lead croc was looking over the mountains in the early morning. He thought about the whole incident about Po's bio parents killing them and he doesn't seem to feel guilty for that. He's suddenly ready for any trespassers who comes in his way.
Suddenly, one of the crocs came behind him and said, "Pyro, we have something to show you."
"Is it important?" he snarled.
"Very important, sir."
Pyro sighed angrily and followed the crocs down to the trees and he sees the crocs and the rhinos coming in and holds out a little drawing and he asked, "What the heck is this?"
"Well, sir, that's the baby panda that you were attempting to kill." the assistant croc said.
"Ah, yes. The baby panda. I was so close to kill him, I tell ya. I wonder if he's still in hiding." said Pyro.
Then, he turned around, thinking that maybe he was the only one that survived and had a disgusting feeling in the pit of his stomach, faced the crocs and rhinos and asked, "Why are you showing me this anyway?"
"Well, sir.... he's still alive and now he's known in China as... the Dragon Warrior."
Pyro spat out his drink and coughed loudly, like he was in complete shock, then he turned around and asked, "What did you just say?!"
"I said, the baby panda you were trying to kill is still alive, sir and he's the Dragon Warrior now."
Pyro sees a picture of Po as a full-grown, 400-some pound panda with a cape on. The sight of the picture made Pyro angry and attempted to let out a huge roar that echoed across the Mountains. He panted furiously and looked at his comrades, cleared his throat, calmed himself down and asked, "When did you see this panda?"
"We saw him with the Furious Five and Master Shifu coming in through the mountains while I was in look-out yesterday. I didn't get much sense of the panda, but I saw one description of the panda, sir; green eyes." the assistant croc said.
"Yeah, word is this dude kicked the mess off of Tai Lung and defeated him." another croc said.
"And he suddenly became the Dragon Warrior afterwards."
"You mean to tell me that this fat piece of blubber panda is the one I was trying to kill when he was a baby?" asked Pyro.
"Yes, sir."
Pyro took one look at Po and said, "Boy, this kid sure has grown, hasn't he? It's almost hard to believe that a stomach this huge will be a weapon to annihilate villians. Well, he's no match for me and my comrades. I will most likely to finish what I started with his mother and father, too. If he ever comes here to get revenge on me, there's gonna be a whole lotta heck to pay!"
"Sir, how are we going to do that?" asked the assistant croc.
"Simple, you silly, foolish twit, we'll wait for him. When the time comes, he'll show up and I'll finish what I started off. Finding where he's at, that's just too easy. And he will see the end of his life as you or I both know it."
"You know, that really offends me when you call me a twit, sir."
"Sorry, maggot."
The assistant croc didn't take the name-calling seriously and he went off on his way, not to bother Pyro as he sat down next to the mountains. He said, "Someday, when he comes, he'll have a lot more than what he bargained for."
Later that morning, Shifu felt a twinge of suspicion like someone knows they're here already. He had one thought on his mind and knew that Pyro was waiting for them to arrive in his presence. He soon checked on Po and thought that they'll leave as soon as sun rose up in the sky. After that, he looked up at the hill of the mountains and sat there until it's time to head off again. The thought of someone getting revenge came to mind when Tai Lung attempted to take down Shifu because he didn't get the Dragon Scroll. He still has painful, horrible memories of when Tai Lung flies up to him with a fistfull of fire, beating him down hard, and left with scars and burns everywhere. The flashback brought the red panda fear and worry, thinking that Pyro might do the same with Po and he didn't want to lose another student, like Tai Lung. The sun rose slowly on Shifu's face and whispered, "It's time to head out."
As soon as the sun rose up, everyone else got up and did a brief stretch to get more energy in the morning. Monkey looked at Po and asked, "You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I?" asked Po.
"Just asking."
Po saw Tigress looking so messed-up like she's had a rough sleep. He made a kooky face and asked, "What did you do, had a bad morning of ugliness?"
Tigress turned to him, with this half-amused, half-crankly look and told him, "You wouldn't look so good either, if your face looked very saggy along with the face and eyes looking baggy and the pains in your back feel like someone shoved you down 98 feet down the ground!"
"Relax, will ya? I'm pretty sure some wolves do that on their way to hunting food and stuff."
Mantis hopped into Monkey's shoulder and Viper saw his antennas looking a bit messed up and asked, "I suppose you had a rough night, as well?"
"Coping with Monkey's snoring, not what I would call a good night's sleep." said Mantis, groggily.
"I don't snore.... much." Monkey said.
"Dude, I could hear you snore louder like--"
Mantis made an annoying snoring sound and Monkey scoffed and rolled his eyes a little and said, "That's ridiculous."
"No, actually, that is how you snore." said Viper.
"Easy for you to say."
They saw Master Shifu walking towards them and stands in front of them, saying, "Good morning, master!"
"Students, we're gonna have a quick breakfast and then, we need to pack up and make our way in this trip." said Shifu.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Mantis.
"Well, we still need to keep moving till we get to Kumango Valley."
"You mean, we're halfway there?" asked Tigress.
"Possibility."
"I took the opportunity to put in some quick snacks for the trip, in case Shifu said, 'quick breakfast', so I put them in everyone else's bags." said Po.
"Thanks, Po."
"All right, let's get moving."
Everyone packed up and got their quick snacks and headed off to the Wudang Mountains. Po suddenly had a bad feeling on his stomach that something bad is gonna happen and asked Shifu, "Are we gonna be okay?"
"Of course, that Pyro won't know what hit him and he'll learn now to mess with your bio parents." said Shifu.
Suddenly, his worried face soon turned to confidence and that he's determined to do whatever it takes to find the truth about his parents and take down the one who killed him. It's gonna take a long journey to find this valley, but with everyone heading to the valley, everything 's possible.
Hope ya'll likey! There's gonna be more of this story coming up!
