When Shifu first spotted the snow leopard he had been walking peacefully from the sacred peach tree down to the village and almost had a heart attack, at first he had thought his son was dead , which of course wouldn't have been a surprise, except for the fact the was still very intact but the wuxi finger hold was a highly un-perfected art,
It was the snow leopards labored breathing that assured the Red panda Tai lung was still alive.
Now Shifu had a very difficult decision to make, no even after all the things his son had done he would never leave him to die, but he did have to choose between informing the guards and allowing the snow leopard to go back to chrom grom or tending to Tai lung himself and seeing what would come of it, to Shifu the choice was obvious but he could not allow his feeling for the snow leopard to cloud his judgment.
Alerting the guards would be the right coarse of action for the village's sake.
But he could not bring himself to do it on his own accord, he would have Crane deliver the message, yes the was the decision he had to make.
While he began up the stairs however, Shifu made the grave mistake of glancing back at the snow leopard, just to ensure he was still breathing...
Seeing the prone, helpless, battered form of his son the Red panda sighed feeling his resolve weaken, there was not way he could send him back now, who knew what would happen to him in prison his son would probably be dead within two weeks in their care, plus Shifu was pretty sure chrom grom had not been dug out yet.
So he moved slowly around Tai Lung looking for a way he could move him without causing farther damage.
His students ,well accept for maybe Po , would not applauded his decision but hopefully, out of respect they would except it at the most.
WHOO one-shot two. This is basically chapter one from Shifu's point of view, it's bit shorter than the last I think but I hope you enjoyed it. And on a completely different note has anyone else noticed how big Tai Lung is for a snow leopard?
