And we brought in a certain kung-fu master to volunteer his time at the orphanage.


Chapter 3: Extra Volunteers

As the day wears on, Max was helping Samurai and Tae Kwan Do with giving out their old toys for the kids that might want them for the holidays and right from the gate, Max gave away all of his toys to every kid and Samurai was surprised with Max's willingness for charity and he never expected Max to give all of it away so fast, but at the same time...he knows that it's a good cause.

"Max really surprises you, doesn't he?" Samurai asked.

Tae Kwan Do chuckled softly and he said, "Every single time. It makes our job as older brothers seem like it's backwards. He's supposed to learn from us, but we're learning from him."

After all of the toys was given away, they were surprised to see Po coming in to entertain the kids with some of his kung-fu moves and it got a lot of the kids excited and so did they and soon after that, Samurai comes across the panda and he said, "Hey, Po!"

Po turns around and sees Samurai, Tae Kwan Do and Max come this way and he immediately greets them and said, "Hey, guys! How goes it this holiday?"

"Just some volunteer work." Samurai replied.

"And I see you're here for some volunteer work too." Tae Kwan stated.

Po nods his head and he said, "Yep. Just thought I'd come to the orphanage and just make their kids' day even more awesomer. Same with the holidays too."

"That's cool, Po. We always volunteer here every season." Samurai added.

"Max just gave away truckloads of his toys to some needy kids. 500 of them." Tae Kwan Do added.

Po froze for a second and he was amazed to hear Max's charitable contribution to give away loads of toys to kids and it suddenly turns to admiration for the white tiger cub and he said, "That was awesome, Maxie-boy. That was awesome! See, this is the kind of person I would love to adopt."

Soon, Po brought Max over to the other kids and said, "This guy just gave away 500 toys to needy orphans. It's called being awesome with a big heart."

Max chuckled softly at this as he heard the kids cheer for Max and it was an entirely new feeling that he's being loved for the first time and it was a much better reception than what it was at the orphanage years earlier and after that, Max looks up at Po and he could definitely see a pattern between the two of them, like he wished he would have a big brother like that.

Afterwards, Max asked, "Did the others come too?"

"Nah, they're planning this holiday dinner for some of the kung-fu masters. Shifu assigned me and Tigress to host it together." Po answered.

"Ooh, bummer." Max added.

"Actually, we're doing pretty good as hosts. We help out with cooking and decorating. But come on...when it comes to eating, I can't resist." Po added.

Samurai could tell by that and he said, "It shows too."

Soon enough, Max's ears perk up something from miles away and he runs off for a second, leaving the rest wondering what's going on and they followed them there. By the time Max actually makes it towards the hallways, he was shocked to see that a few kids were picking on this one person and he said, "Enough!"

The others turned their attention to Max and one of the pre-teen boars snorted at him and said, "Man, what do you want?"

"Whomever you're picking on...leave or you'll receive a major holiday butt-kicking." Max said, with a warning growl.

"Man, who you think you are; the shrimpy Dragon Warrior?"

Suddenly, Max hears someone clear his throat and Po was standing there and said, "Nope...but I'm the real Dragon Warrior."

As soon as the teenage kids saw the real Dragon Warrior come in, they immediately stopped and placed their paws up and the boar said, "Okay, man. We get it."

Then, one of the water buffalos grabbed the kid and said, "This ain't over yet...because next time, you won't be so lucky, freak."

After that, Max comes close to the person and he asked, "Are you okay?"

In stands this young lynx cat; 10 years of age, orange-green eyes, light orange-yellow fur, stands at 5'3, weighs at 188 pounds, wearing a green vest and grey sweatpants and some tuft hair on his ears and the lynx responds, "Yeah...no thanks to you. Just get away from me."

The young lynx runs away and that was completely strange for Max because he never expected that reaction like that and Samurai said, "He should've said 'thank you' at least."

"I'm gonna see what's up with him." Max said, walking to where the lynx ran off to.

"Now I see why Tigress is always jealous of Max." Po said, in awe.


Who was that lynx? Stay tuned to find out.
