And another setback has set in, but that will never stop Max at all.


Chapter 10: Another Setback

Max made his way back to find his dad and all of a sudden, he was face to face with Kaizer and he looks up and saw him standing there and he said, "Hey, Kaizer."

"You were talking to Tigress, weren't you?" asked Kaizer, his arms crossed.

"Yeah." Max replied.

Kaizer sighed heavily at this and he figured that Max was gonna do whatever it takes to help her out, even if it meant sneaking past him to try to talk with her and he said, "What am I gonna do with you?"

"I don't know." Max added.

"Come on, I'm gonna take you back to your dad." Kaizer said.

Max stayed close to Kaizer as they walked out of the barracks and made their way to the Hall of Heroes and Kaizer asked, "So...why did you want to talk to her? I told you that she doesn't want to see anyone."

"Just to let her know that I'm not mad at her or anything and that we can start fresh. So far...that was a setback, but I'm not giving up." Max answered.

"You don't let anything stop you, don'y you?" asked Kaizer.

"Nope. Wouldn't you finish a task you didn't accomplish yet?" asked Max.

Soon enough, that question seemed to speak to Kaizer for some reason because he does feel like there's a lot of tasks that he has yet to accomplish himself and he did have a good point there and just agreed with that and Kaizer asked, "Why are you wise when you're too young?"

"I'm never too young to be wise." Max stated.

"Touche." Kaizer stated.

Before long, they finally found Mako standing there and when Max got back with his panda father, Mako asked, "How'd it go?"

"A little setback, but it's okay. I'm not giving up." Max replied.

Mako nodded his head in agreement and Kaizer looked at Mako for a second and said, "I still don't understand how Max is always like this."

"To tell you the truth...neither do I. But I guess he looks at life in a very different way." Mako answered.

Both of them left the palace and Kaizer was left standing there, looking awestruck and blown away by this and he thought to himself, 'Max is very remarkable.'


Even in a setback, Max and Mako can always see a bright spot. I'm sure this won't be the last. Stay tuned!
