Chapter 4: Welcome back!
If you read the savior you know that Ichi has lived in the Bao Gu orphanage for three years, in this chapter you'll learn what he did for the rest of his childhood.
Ichi woke up from his sleep but found himself somewhere else; he was in his room, that's when he realized that he was out of his coma.
("I guess that was it, at least it's over and I can live my life.") Ichi thought "What do I do now though?"
As he went to the door and opened it he found Shifu in front of him; almost right after the door opened Shifu embraced Ichi with a hug.
"Um, good morning Shifu." Ichi greeted "How have you been for the past three days?"
Shifu then released him and whacked Ichi with his flute, he glared at him and said "How have I been, I've been worried sick about you for the past three days!"
"Well I guess I deserved that, sorry but it's not like I had anything better to do." Ichi explained "But I should thank you for looking after me, you and Po both."
"Everyone was worried you, it wasn't just me and Po." Shifu corrected "But Po was the most worried about you."
"Did you call my name Shifu?"
Po was in front of the door staring at Shifu and Ichi; his eyes were watering but before he did anything Ichi hugged him and said "Po, it's so good to see you again!"
"Ichi, I'm so sorry that I..."
"Don't worry about it ok, and Crane was right to me your a great older brother." Ichi said smiling "You'll always be the big brother that I love."
"That means alot little bro!" Po said teary eyed "But how did you know that Crane said that?"
"Just because I'm in a coma doesn't mean I can't hear anything." Ichi answered "Well I'm going to see the five, I'll meet you guys at the peach tree of heavenly wisdom in a few."
After ten minutes of seeing the five Ichi went to the peach tree to find Po and Shifu waiting for him, through the time they spent together he told them what happened in his mind and what he figured out too.
"So your calling him Kage now?" Shifu asked
"Yep, it means shadow so it was the perfect name for him." Ichi answered "I also learned about th azure grimoire which I have to say is pretty amazing, Shifu did you know about it?"
"No, but it sounds like something familiar." Shifu said thinking "Po, would you happen to know anything about it?"
"I think I did once, but I can't remember." Po answered "Oh wait I do remember that it was used to destroy some giant monster a long time ago."
"Leave it to the fanboy to know everything." Ichi said laughing "But I still don't know anything about that dark one title of mines, I'm starting to think if it's something bad."
"We'll figure it out so don't worry." Shifu said comforting his son "If something happens we'll stop it for sure."
"Yeah, I promise this time I'll protect you sure." Po said smiling "It's my job as your big brother after all."
Ichi felt his heart melt from his brothers words, he hugged him and said "Thanks big bro!"
"It's getting late, time for bed you two."
"Are you kidding me, I've been asleep for three days!" Ichi exclaimed "Can't I just stay up here for a few more minutes?"
"Fine but not to long."
"I'll stay with him Shifu." Po insisted
"Ok, I'll see the both of you tomorrow."
As the Shifu departed from the peach tree Po went on and said "So, there a reason you wanted to stay up here?"
"Remember when I told you guys abot the doppleganger?" Ichi asked "Well, I feel like she's close now and we're going to meet very soon."
"Is that all?"
"I feel like something's bad is gonna happen when we meet." Ichi explained "I'm worried that she might get hurt even more."
Po could tell how sad Ichi was; he placed his shoulder around him and said "Well if your that worried then I'll protect her too."
"Po, you're awesome!" Ich said smiling "You remember that I lived in the Bao Gu orphanage for three years right?"
"Yeah, what happened the other years?" Po asked
"I did regular jobs to survive." Ichi answered "They weren't special or anything, it was just stuff like construction work, drafting, engineering, and... what?"
Po was at awestruck and said "How could you do those things!?"
"I didn't do much, for engineering and construction I just made blueprints." Ichi explained "There was even this one time when I worked at this one strip... oh calm down all I did was make drinks."
"Right, don't worry I won't tell Shifu about that."
"Thanks."
