Hey everyone, it's been a while, but here it is. Here's chapter 5 of Turning Red: Legend of the White Tiger. From this point on, this story will be M rated. Warning: if you're not into reading incest, turn away now. Here we go.
A week had passed and the night of red moon ritual had come. Jun pulled up in front of the temple in her car. She got out and walked through the temple, most of Ming's family gathered.
"Jun," Wu greeted her.
"Wu," Jun greeted back.
"Still doing martial arts?" Wu asked.
"Yep," Jun replied, "In this day and age, a girl's gotta defend herself."
"Hmph. I still think it's unbecoming of a lady to do something so unruly," Wu scoffed, "If that's the case then why not train Mei-Mei?"
"Mei-Mei gets enough attention from your side family as it. Plus, I can tell she has no interest in learning this stuff and I have no interest in teaching her. Still love her though," Jun replied, "Besides, I've already got a pupil, an amazing one," she added before walking past the mother of her sister-in-law, "Oh, and you have other grandchildren besides Mei-Mei you know. Try taking an interest in your grandson Shang once in a while."
Jun then stepped into the house. She walked down the hall, just in time to see Jin and Ming step out of Mei's room, Mei dressed in a traditional, red Chinese silk robe.
"Hey, big brother," Jun greeted Jin.
"Hello," Jun replied.
"Jun," Ming greeted her sister-in-law.
"Ming," Jun greeted back.
"Hey, auntie!" Mei walked up to Jun, happily wrapping her arms around her waist in an embrace.
"Hey, kiddo," Jun hugged her back, affectionately petting her head, "How are you feeling? Are you ready for the ritual?" she asked.
"I'm a little nervous, but yeah," Mei said while breaking the hug. Jun chuckled and patted her head.
Jun opened the door to Shang's room, Shang sitting at his dresser desk, playing with a rubik's cube.
"Hey, nephew, it's time for the ritual," Jun told the male twin.
"Unfortunately, Shang won't be joining us. He's been grounded," Ming informed her sister-in-law.
"Grounded?" Jun repeated.
"He had the bright idea to make money off Mei-Mei's panda, just so her friends could see some talentless band," Ming said, "But Mei-Mei knows better. She's a good child," she added, glaring at Shang with a look with disapproval. Unseen by her, Mei looked away with an expression of guilt.
Shang glanced at his mother, his eyes narrowed as he released a low growl. His irises flared faintly with his blue chi. However, the only ones that noticed it were his father and aunt since they could sense chi just as he could. As if sensing Shang's emotions, the kitten woke up and hopped off his desk.
The kitten walked over and hopped onto the table that Shang's TV rested on. With a growl and shriek, the kitten lunged at Ming who screamed as it unsheathed its claws. Luckily for her, the kitten flew past her. Unfortunately, the kitten had swiped its paw in midair, leaving claw marks on Ming's cheek.
"Ow!" Ming yelped, feeling the sting of the flesh wound. The wound wasn't deep enough for it to bleed out, but it still hurt.
The kitten then ran back over to Shang, releasing a cute meow.
"Hey, bad kitty!" Shang lightly chided, making the kitten's ears flatten against its head.
"Come on, Mei-Mei. It's time for the ritual," Ming said, guiding Mei out of the house, Jin following close behind, leaving Jun alone with her nephew.
"Good kitty," Shang whispered with a smile as he affectionately scratched the kitten under the chin, making it purr.
This was the same tabby kitten that walked over to Shang during Mei's kitten test. The white one with black stripes. At first, Shang kept trying to put the kitten outside with its parents and siblings, but somehow it just kept coming back to him. After a while, Shang just gave up and decided to keep the kitten as a pet. Luckily for him they already had cat food and kitty litter at hand. The only thing Shang wasn't prepared for was the kitten's gender. When Shang decided to keep the kitten, he named it Stuart… until Mei pointed that the kitten was actually a girl. So, Shang had changed the kitten's name to Stella. Fitting, considering the tag on her cat collar was in the shape of a star.
"So, your parents let you have one of the kittens?" Jun asked, leaning against her nephew's desk.
"You could say that. Stella here is a good kitty," Shang turned to his aunt as the kitten curled up into a ball on his lap.
Jun chuckled, petting kitten.
"So… grounded, eh?" Jun looked at Shang.
"Yeah, two weeks—well, one week now. I knew how much the girls wanted to go see 4-town, so—"
"It was all Mei-Mei's idea and you took the bullet for her when she and her friends got busted, didn't you?" Jun cut him off with a smug expression.
"H- How did you…?" Shang looked at her with surprise.
"I could tell by the shame and guilt in your sister's eyes," Jun told him.
"Is it bad that I took the blame for something Mei did?" Shang asked.
"Oh, sweetie, no. This just shows how much of a good brother you are and how much you love your sister," Jun replied, giving him a side hug, "Believe me, your dad used to do that for me sometimes when we were kids. Just… don't do it all of the time, alright?"
Shang smiled, tilting his head and resting it on his aunt's shoulder.
"So, what've been doing since you're not allowed to play your games?" Jun asked curiously
"I've been working on few things, including a new technique," Shang told her.
"That's good," Jun smiled.
"I can't wait to test out my newest move. It's gonna be awesome!" Shang said rather excitedly.
Jun chuckled, leaned in, and planted a kiss upon Shang's forehead. She then walked over to the window, lifting it up all the way.
"Why'd you open my window?" Shang raised an eyebrow of confusion as his aunt made her way to the door.
"It's a little stuffy in here. I think you could use some fresh air," Jun replied, winking at that last part before stepping out.
"Ohh…" Shang said with a devious expression, realizing what his aunt was getting at.
Shang hopped out of his chair, and then leaped out his open window. Hopping onto a nearby crate, he climbed onto the roof of the house. Quietly, he snuck over to where the temple was, being sure to stay behind the roof of the temple so nobody would notice him, only poking his head out to see the main event. Everyone was gathered in a circle around Mei, a circle of chalk drawn around her. Even Mr. Gao who was wielding an admittedly kickass sword was there. That's when Shang saw Jun gather with the others, standing on the other side of his dad.
"You were almost late," Ming lightly chided Jun.
"Relax, Mingzilla, I was just having a little talk with my nephew," Jun replied with an amused eye roll as she pulled out a mini camcorder out of her pocket.
The twins chuckled to themselves. Mingzilla?
"You know, I hate it when you call me that," Ming glared at her sister-in-law in annoyance.
"I know," Jun said, recording the events.
That's when the ritual began. Four of the relatives played instruments, including a bell, a drum, a bowl for some reason, and a little panda head thing. They family then started singing and chanting something in Chinese.
"What're they saying?" Mei asked.
"The door will only open if we sing from our hearts. It doesn't matter what. I like Tony Bennet, but your grandma, uh… she's from old school," Mr Gao explained.
"Clearly," Shang muttered to himself.
"Now, focus on their voices. Let them guide you," Mr. Gao told Mei.
That's when the chalk ring started to glow with a faint cyan-colored light.
"Oh, Sun Yee, feared ancestor, hear us now," Mr. Gao said, "Guide this girl through her inner storm…"
the full moon then turned completely red, a symbol appearing in the center of the circle where Mei sat. A small breeze started to blow around them. Everyone then chanted louder, the circle glowing brighter as Mei started to levitate off the air.
"Whoa, what the hell?" Shang whispered.
"And return the red panda spirit from where it came!" Mr. Gao shouted as he lifted his sword to the sky.
The amulet coin jewel thing in the center of the hilt guard of the sword glowed red. Amulet then shot a beam at Mei's forehead, which then sent a pulse throughout her body and rendered her unconscious. Mei then levitated higher into the air, lying in the air with her arms and legs dangling.
A few minutes in, Shang noticed a somewhat pained look on his sister's face. That's when a large, astral version of Mei's panda shot out of her chest. It was times like this Shang wished he had some popcorn. Mr. Gao then pulled out the amulet coin, the panda spirit slowly being absorbed into it.
"You can do it. Keep going!" Ming encouraged her.
However, a large explosion of pink smoke erupted from Mei's body, blowing everyone away… literally. Jun managed to do a backflip when the explosion happened, so she managed to land on her feet. Shang was shielded by the roof, so the cloud explosion had no effect on him.
The smoke cleared, Mei now in her panda form. Mei looked at herself and hugged her tail happily.
"What happened?" Wu asked.
"She changed her mind, that's what happened," Jun muttered, still recording.
"Mei-Mei…" Ming ran up to Mei, placing a hand on the girl's paw, "It's ok. We can do it again—" she was cut off by Mei pulling away, "Mei-Mei?" she looked at her daughter with confusion.
"I'm keeping it," Mei responded, Shang and Jun smiling.
"What did she say?" Wu asked.
"I'm keeping it!" Mei told her grandmother.
"Ha! Knew it," Shang muttered rather smugly.
Shang then saw his sister head for the temple door. Everyone except Jun tried to hold her back and stop her.
"Grr… let go!" Mei shouted, trying to break free. The family tried to talk her out of it, but… "NO!" Mei shouted, shoving them off her, "I'm going to the concert!" she said, before running out of the temple.
"Get back here!" Ming shouted, which fell on deaf ears, "No…"
"Well, that was… unexpected," Jun said, ending the recording and turning off the camcorder, putting it back into her pocket.
Jun turned to the temple, looking to the roof where she knew Shang was. She gestured her head in Mei's direction, silently telling him to go after her. Shang nodded and silently went after his sister. Jun then turned to the crowd, where she saw Ming on all fours, panting heavily as she was comforted by her husband.
"Is she going to be alright, Jin?" Jun asked as she approached her brother and sister-in-law.
"How could she?" Ming asked under her breath, tears in her eyes.
"Hm?" Jun looked at her sister-in-law. Her voice sounded almost… angry.
"How could she do this to… her own mother?!" Ming stood up, her voice now echoing with the same anger.
Jin and Jun looked at each other. Both siblings could sense her chi rising at an alarming rate. That's when the amulet coin necklace shattered, releasing her imprisoned panda spirit. The panda spirit flew around the entrance before flying straight into Ming's body, causing her to levitate.
"Oh…" Jin started.
"Shit," Jun finished.
"MEI-MEI!" Ming shouted at the top of her lungs before an enormous cloud of pink smoke erupted from her body.
The Sky Dome…
Mei, in her panda form, ran down the sidewalk on all fours, people stepping out of her way as she passed by. She then ran into the street. Before reaching the intersection, Mei turned back into her human form, the cloud explosion sending her straight into the air to avoid getting hit by cars. Her robes started to come off, and then was removed completely when she turned back into her panda form, the explosion sending her to the edge of a nearby building.
Mei would've fallen, but she turned back into her human form, allowing her to land on the roof of said building. She switched between human and panda forms to move across rooftop after rooftop. However, one of the times she turned back into her human from, she was caught in midair by someone.
"Huh?" Mei looked at the person that had caught her. It happened to be none other than her brother, "Shang?" she looked at her twin with surprise.
"Hey Mei," Shang smiled at his sister.
"How did you…" Mei looked down to see they were flying through the air. She was standing beside on a fly cloud, "Shang, are flying… on a cloud?!"
"Yep. The explanation is complicated, but let's just say I made it myself" Shang explained.
"Shang-Shang, that's awesome!" Mei beamed.
Shang's cloud was blue, the same shade as his chi. This thing was actually really fast, faster than he thought it'd be. It was fast enough to catch up to Mei, who had a head start by a few minutes, and they were approaching the Sky Dome. The cloud he was riding was just like a certain cloud from a certain popular anime he loved. Shang angled the cloud to make them fly high above the roof of the building that held the concert.
"Hang tight, Mei," Shang warned. Mei held him closer, her cheeks heating up and her heart beating a little faster. What's going on with her?
Shang leaned forward, angling the cloud straight down towards the crowd of teenagers… most of them being girls. Amongst the crowd were Mei's friends in the front row. Knowing what his sister was thinking, Shang flew down towards them. Shang then subtly created a small ball of chi the size of a marble. Once close enough, he slammed the mini chi ball on the ground, creating a small cloud of smoke. The girls turned to see the twins hopping of the cloud.
"Mei! Shang! You're here!" the three girls beamed in unison.
"What're you guys doing here?" Miriam asked.
"Yeah, I thought Shang was grounded?" Abby chimed in.
"I decided to keep the panda. It's a part of me… and so are you guys," Mei replied, making her friends smile.
"Yeah, and I came because… well, mostly because I had nothing better to do and our Aunt Jun insisted. Plus, I have this weird feeling this concert won't turn out well…" Shang added, muttering that last sentence under his breath, having had a weird tingle shoot up his spine since he picked up Mei… and not the good kind.
"Dude, is that a cloud?" Miriam asked, pointing to the cloud that the twins rode in on.
"Yep," Shang said, the cloud flying away on its own, "Created it myself. Don't ask how," he told them.
"Nice," Miriam smiled, impressed.
That's when the twins heard a beeping sound.
"Robaire Jr.?" Mei looked at her friends. Priya and Abby turned their heads to Miriam.
"Here, I found it at Tyler's party," Miriam pulled the digital pet out of her pocket and handed it to Mei.
"I was wondering why you hadn't been playing with that stupid thing," Shang commented, though Mei chose to ignore that.
"4 Town forever?" Mei asked her friends.
"4 Town forever!" the girls replied, all four girls sharing a group hug.
"Tyler?" Miriam questioned, the girls and Shang looking in the direction she was looking in and indeed saw the wannabe athlete, who freaked out.
"Uh, no! Who's Tyler? I don't know a—"
"You… are… a 4-townie?" Mei asked slowly, the girls just as surprised as she was. Shang, however, remained silent.
"Yeah-hoo!" the girls all cheered as they ran up to Tyler, forcing him into a group hug, going as far as giving him a noogie.
"Ahh! He's one of us!" Mei said happily.
"Welcome to the sisterhood," Priya told him.
"Get off, dorks!" Tyler said as he pulled out of their grasps, fixing his hair and accessories. He then looked at Shang, "What're you doing here, Shang? You like 4 Town too?" he asked the male twin.
"Yes, because I totally want to go deaf from a bunch of horny teenage girls screaming in my ear," Shang sarcastically remarked with a roll of his eyes, "In all seriousness, I kind of like their music, just not enough to see them in concert. I'm more or less here because of my sister," he explained.
That's when he felt pair of arms wrap around his neck.
"Priya?" Shang looked to his left, seeing the normally deadpanned girl happily nuzzling his cheek.
"Thanks for having our back at Tyler's party. You didn't have to throw yourself under the bus like that," Priya told him.
"I know. But I'd rather have my mom be mad at me than accuse you girls of something you didn't do," Shang told her.
Priya snickered. She cupped Shang's cheek furthest from her and pulled him in. Like with Stacy, Shang felt the warm, moist feeling of Priya's lips press against his cheek, the one opposite to the one Stacy had kissed. Both times he had been kissed by them, a tingle ran down his spine. Those times were the good kind of tingle. After a few seconds, Priya pulled away, Shang blushing.
"You're really sweet, you know that?" Priya said, smiling at him. Despite the kiss, her lip gloss didn't smear and was still shiny.
That's when Shang felt another pair of arms wrap around the other side of his neck. He turned his head to the right to see none other than Stacy hugging him as well.
"Hey Shang," Stacy greeted him, "Hey Priya," she greeted her rival.
"Hey Stacy," Shang and Priya greeted back simultaneously.
"Shang, I thought you always said 4 town had good music but didn't want to see them in concert?" Stacy asked, having heard him say that several times before, "Also, I thought you were grounded?" she added.
"I'm here because of Mei," Shang informed her.
"Oh. Well, it's still cool that you're here. It'll definitely be a lot more fun," Stacy said, affectionately nuzzling his cheek.
The entire are of the Sky Dome then when dark. Looks like the concert was officially about to start. The screen on stage then showed a hand holding up four fingers, everyone counting down from said number. When the countdown ended, five cages then rose from stage, each containing a member of 4 Town within it, everyone cheering.
The first to come out was Aaron T.
"Oh my god!" Miriam shouted.
Then came Aaron Z.
"Z, I love you, man!" Tyler shouted, reaching out to the athletic member of the band. Alright, that was unexpected.
Tae Young.
"Tae Young," Abby whispered, a single tear in the corner of her eye. Huh, that's probably the first time Shang heard Abby say something quietly.
Jesse.
"Jesse!" Priya said, hugging Shang tighter.
"Toronto…!" Robaire began, "You knows what's up!" he shouted, his cage being the final one to break open.
Mei, Miriam and Tyler gasped then cried tears of joy as they held each other. Stacy and Priya did the same, but hugged Shang who mixed feelings about this. On one hand, he was being hugged tightly by two pretty girls, but on the other… his ears were hurt from all the screaming girls around him. That's when a jolt shot up his spine. He could sense a large chi approaching the Sky Dome from the right. This chi felt kind of felt like his mom's except… angry.
"You want it?" Robaire asked crowd.
"I want it!" the crowd responded.
"You want it?" Robaire asked again.
"I want it!" the crowd responded.
"You want it?" Robaire asked a third time.
"I want it!" the crowd responded.
"Give me one! Two! Three! Four!" Robaire said, and then, along with the other members of the band, sprouted wing with a puff a off smoke before floating into the air. It was obviously it was done by wires, but who cares?
Everyone in the screamed as the boys performed their U Know What's Up song. Everyone ran towards the band, Stacy and Priya even shoving Shang, much to the boy's slight annoyance. Shang saw the girls lift Mei up, his sister accidentally stepping on Tyler's face, allowing her to get closer to Robaire. Mei and Robaire's hands nearly touched until…
"MEI-MEI!" the voice of their mom shouted, cutting the music short.
Everyone turned to the right, seeing a pair of giant red eyes. A giant pair of claws then slid the domed ceiling open… well, it was more like crushed open. A giant panda face then poked its head in.
"Mei-Mei! Where are you?!" the panda asked, looking around, Shang and Mei instantly recognized the panda's face and voice.
"Mom?!" the twins said in shocked unison.
"I was wondering how her chi suddenly got stronger!" Shang said, clenching a fist.
"Mei-Mei!" Ming spotted her daughter.
Mei screamed, her and everyone else running away in the opposite direction. Panda Ming then broke the dome open even further, allowing her to leap through. When she landed, she created a huge cloud of dust.
"Mei! Shang!" the twins' dad ran up to them in a brief hug, the rest of the family and Mr. Gao appearing behind him, "Kids, we have to do the ritual again," Jin told them.
"What happened? She's HUGE!" Mei said.
"I told you she was big!" Jin replied.
"That big?!" Mei pointed a thumb at her gigantic mother.
"Yeah. Why do you think I call her Mingzilla?" Jun chimed in.
"Mei-Mei!" Ming yelled, reaching out for the girl. Mei attempted to run, only for Ming to grab her and clench her in her giant paw.
"Mei!" Shang shouted with concern.
"You are in big trouble, young lady!" Ming scolded, wagging a finger.
"Mom, let go!" Mei struggled to break free.
"I'm shutting this down! Right now!" Ming said, tearing off the 4 Town sign from the stage, "Everyone, go home! Where are your parents? Put some clothes on!" she told all the kids, dropping the sign, causing it break upon hitting the ground.
"This. Isn't. You!" Ming told Mei.
Mei growled, "This IS me!" Mei shot back, transforming into her panda form as she bit down hard on her mom's paw.
Ming yelled in pain she released Mei. Mei fell to the floor, turning back into her human form as she hit the ground.
"Mei!" Shang ran over along with everyone else, "You alright, sis?" he asked as he helped her up. Mei growled and transformed back into her panda form.
"I'm not your little Mei-Mei anymore! Shang lied, mom!" Mei yelled.
"What?!" Ming looked at her kids with a mixture of shock and disbelief.
"Mei, what're you doing?" Shang looked at his sister.
"It was my idea to hustle the panda! My idea to go to Tyler's party! It's all me! Not Shang, ME! Shang was just looking out for me and took the bullet instead," Mei confessed.
Shang sighed. This was bound to come out sooner or later.
"She's right, Mom!" Shang chimed in, "I took the blame so Mei wouldn't have to," he confessed.
"I like boys! I loud music! I like gyrating!" Mei yelled, coming out with all her true interests, "I'm 13, deal with it!"
Gyrating. Why did Shang have a feeling that term was going to be outdated and called something else in 15 years?
There was a brief pause between mother and daughter, Mei panting heavily. Ming growled, and then roared at the top of her lungs.
"The ritual. Everyone in position!" Wu clapped, everyone scattering, "Mei-Mei, keep her busy," she told her granddaughter.
"Oh, I'll keep her busy!" Mei said, running towards her mom.
"Help her out, Shang," Jun told her nephew.
"On it!" Shang nodded, running after his sister.
"How can Shang help?" Wu cocked an eyebrow at Jun.
"You'll see," Jun smirked.
Shang placed his fingers in his mouth and whistled, summoning his cloud. He hopped on and quickly flew up beside his sister. Out of the corner of his eyes, he caught his dad running around in a huge circle with that tool that drew chalk on the ground, the circle needing to be big enough to contain the giant panda that was his mom.
"You ready, sis?" Shang asked Mei.
"Ready, bro," Mei replied with a nod.
"Get back here!" Ming told the twins.
"Make us!" the twins replied in unison, splitting up.
"You two think you're so mature. Lying to me. Blaming me? How could you two be so… so… CRASS?!" Ming shouted, the air of her shout pushing the twins back a bit as they stopped on some debris.
"Oh, that's nothing. You want to see crass?" Mei said then started gyrating.
"What're doing? Stop moving like that!" Ming winced, attempting to cover her eyes. That's when the circle was completed and the family started to sing.
"What? Is this bothering you?" Mei said while continuing to dance, her friends cheering her on.
Ming growled. In the process of shielding her eyes, she grabbed a piece of debris. She flung her arm, accidental tossing the debris which went straight for Mei. Mei screamed as she saw the debris come towards her. However, that's when a beam of blue energy hit the piece of debris, blowing it to smithereens before it could hit her. She looked in the direction that the beam came from and saw fiery energy vanish from her brother's hands.
"Shang?" Mei looked at her brother.
"I've got your back, Mei," Shang winked at his sister, making her blush underneath that red fur.
This distracted Mei as she was hit by her mom's huge tail. Mei grabbed the fur of her mom's tail and straightened herself out. Shang flew around his mom hitting her with several chi balls, making her roar. He wouldn't say he liked hurting his mom, but it did feel like a bit of weight was lifted off his shoulders when the attacks hit.
"All I wanted… was to go…" Mei leaped into the air, turning back into her human form, "to a concert!" she yelled, leaping over her mom's paw as she transformed into her panda form and ran up her arm.
"Yeah, every teen wants to go one of those! Even I plan to go to one this summer!" Shang said flying, narrowly avoiding a swipe from his mom's other massive paw.
"I never went to concerts. I put my family first!" Ming managed to grab Mei in midair, the girl turning back into her human form. At the same time, she swiped at Shang.
Shang weaved around on his cloud to avoid the attack. Shang flew down to the ground.
"Ugh. Damn it, Mom!" Shang groaned as he looked at his Godzilla-sized mother.
"Shang," Jun ran up to him along with Jin, "Can you hold your mom for a little longer?" she asked her nephew.
"Yeah," Shang replied. He then turned his attention back to his giant mom. Mei was clenched in her right paw, this time held by the hips to prevent her biting again, "For now though, we have to save Mei and stop my mom," Shang said, furrowing his brows in determination, "I've been waiting for a chance to bust these out…"
Shang breathed deeply. Chi then engulfed and surrounded his forearms up to the tips of his fingers. The chi started taking shape. The tips of his fingers curved and sharpened, taking the shape of claws. Parts of the chi had gained dark blue stripes, like those of a tiger. Once it was complete, it looked like Shang had tiger claws made of chi, the forearms ending in an almost fiery appearance.
"Chi tiger claws?" Jun questioned with amazement.
"Yeah. I've been developing them since I mastered chi control," Shang said, flexing his claw fingers, "Let's do this!"
Shang flew toward the giant panda that was his mom. Jin came up to his sister and placed a hand on her shoulder. A small smile of formed on his face. Jun could tell that her brother was proud of both her and Shang.
"What was that? Did Shang just have claws?" Wu asked, watching along with Jin and Jun as her grandson ran towards her monstrous daughter.
"We'll explain later," Jun replied.
"Ahh! Mom!" Mei said with discomfort, struggling to break free, her mom's grip tighter than the one before.
"You don't just how much trouble you're in!" Ming said.
Once close enough, Shang hopped of his cloud and ran up to his mom. Channeling his chi into his feet, Shang jumped, launching several feet into the air. Like a certain blue hedgehog, Shang rebounded off his mom's thigh towards her arm. Luckily for him, his mom was so distracted with Mei that she didn't notice him… which wasn't really different any other moment. Shang then rebounded off his mom's left forearm, aim towards her right wrist. He grabbed the fur, climbing onto his mom's right arm.
"Hey, mom!" Shang called to Ming.
"Shang?!" Ming's eyes widened at the sight of her son.
"YAAH!" Shang shouted, delivering a slash to Ming's wrist, the attack leaving several large, elongated claw marks. Ming screamed in pain from the take, causing her to drop Mei once again, Mei screaming as she fell.
"Mei!" Shang ran and leapt from his mom's arm, dissipating the chi claws. He did a breaststroke, gaining more speed before straightening out his body. "Gotcha!" he said, scooping his sister into his arms princess style.
As they fell, Mei felt as if time had slowed down between her and her brother. Looking at him, she could see him in pink light. Her pupils dilated and sparkled, 4 Town's 1 True Love song playing in her head. It was like when she stared at Carter except… stronger. Shang then threw a chi ball towards the ground, the explosion of dust breaking their fall. Shang then stood up, still holding his twin in his arms.
"You ok, Mei?" Shang asked, looking at his redheaded twin.
Mei gazed into her brother's eyes. Yet again her cheeks heated up and her heart beat a little faster. It was in this moment that it had all been made clear to her. Mei giggled a little, smiling.
"I am now," Mei replied, a subtle sultry tone in her voice.
The twins' little moment was interrupted by Ming growling. Shang turned to his mom who glared down at him.
"How dare you attack your own mother, you disrespectful, disobedient child!" Ming growled, holding her injured wrist in pain.
"Oh, NOW you notice me!" Shang sarcastically remarked with a roll of his eyes as he set Mei down.
"I never acted the way you two are now! I actually tried to be a good child!" Ming told them.
Mei growled, only for Shang to take her hand into his. This instantly calmed her down.
"Well, sorry we're not perfect!" Mei replied, "Sorry we aren't—Shang, what're you doing?" she looked at her twin as he gripped her arm with both hands.
"Have a nice flight, Mei," Shang said, channeling chi into his legs, hips and arms.
"What're you talking abou—AHH!" Mei screamed as she was sent flying through the air by her brother.
Mei looked back at Shang who nodded. Mei nodded back, knowing what her brother was getting at. Mei then straightened out her body before transforming into her panda form, the force of the cloud explosion increasing her speed. The panda girl lowered her head. Ming tried to grab Mei for a third time, only for her to miss and for Mei to crash into her forehead head first with a loud bang.
Ming then toppled over, the impact knocking her out. Ming's unconscious body crashed to the ground, destroying the stage and sending out a huge dust cloud that blew the rest of the family away. Mei screamed as fell and landed behind Shang, changing back to her human form.
"Damn…" Shang said.
"Oh no. Mom. Mom!" Mei called out. The twins looked at the moon, the redness from it nearly gone.
The others stood and gasped at the sight of the unconscious giant panda that was Ming.
"Mom! You have to get in the circle!" Mei cried as she ran to her downed mother as she transformed into panda form, "Wake up! I'm sorry!" she said as she tugged on a piece off her mom's tail fur, "Mom… come on. Please!"
There was a brief pause between everyone. Wu inhaled deeply.
"Sun Yee, give me strength," Wu muttered to herself. She took off her bracelet, raised it to the sky, and then slammed it down, shattering it and sending out a cloud of pink smoke.
When the smoke cleared, there stood Wu in her panda form. Incredibly, she still had the scar on her eyebrow. Wu grunted and ran over to beside Mei, taking a strand of tail fur as well.
"Pull, Mei-Mei!" Wu told her granddaughter.
Mei gasped, "Grandma?" she questioned.
"I am NOT losing my daughter!" Wu told Mei, and then looked at the other woman in her family, "Don't just stand there!"
The four women ran towards them, smashing their respective jewelry and unleashing their pandas as well. The four pandas came up beside Mei and Wu, each grabbing a strand of tail fur.
"Make room for your elders, Mei-Mei," Chen said.
"What?" Mei looked between the four of them.
"We're with you!" Ping said.
"But what're you doing? What if you can't change back?" Mei asked with some level of concern.
"Your mom needs us!" Helen replied.
"She's family!" Lily added.
"Less talking, more pulling!" Wu told everyone.
"This fur's so itchy," Lily complained.
"Quiet, Lily!" Wu told her other granddaughter.
That's when Wu and the other women started the ritual chant, the circle starting to glow, albeit weakly.
"Louder! Sing from the heart!" Mr. Gao shouted from the top steps of the stadium.
"Louder! The circle isn't working!" Jin told them.
That's when everyone heard beatboxing. Mei and Shang turned their heads to see Mei's friends, plus Tyler and Stacy, at the mic. Judging by the beat, they knew what song was about to sung.
Robaire: Ohh, I never met nobody… never met, never met, never met (boys: like…) … like… you! YEAHHH!
4 Town came out and sang their most famous song, Robaire's high note triggering the circle. This time the circle shot a pillar of light straight into the sky,
4 Town: I never met nobody…
Mei's friends (plus Tyler and Stacy): Like you.
Mei: Had friends and I've had buddies…
4 Town: it's true. But they don't turn my tummy the way you do. I never met nobody… like you.
Mr. Gao raised his sword to the sky, sending out another red beam. This time hit Ming in the forehead, send out a pulse throughout her body. It was then that she and all the other panda women and Mei started floating up into the air.
4 Town: You're not on my mind. Oh my, oh my!
4 Town: Never not by your side, your side, your side! Never gonna let you cry. Oh cry. Don't cry!
4 Town: I'll never not be your ride, or die! Alriiight!
Everyone watched as the pandas floated higher into the air.
"Good luck, ladies," Shang said to himself.
Lee House…
It was midnight, hours after the concert had ended and everyone had gone home. Shang sat on the edge of the bed, his Gamecube hooked up to his TV as he played Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, one of his favorites. After the concert, Ming had decided to cancel his grounding. He'd been playing his games since he got home, playing the part where Rouge had to find the chaos emeralds in the Security Hall mission.
"God, Rouge is one sexy bat," Shang said with a smirk. He had drawn Rouge the Bat several times… most in suggestive poses and themes. He always liked animal girls, which was evident by all the posters of kemonomimi girls on his wall.
That's when he heard a light knock at his door. The door opened, revealing Mei, still a redhead and in her sleepwear just as he was.
"What's up, Mei?" Shang said, spotting his sister out of his peripheral vision. Mei shut the door… and locked it for some reason. The red-haired girl took a seat beside her twin, "You're up later than usual. Usually you would've been asleep two hours ago," Shang commented.
"Couldn't sleep," Mei replied, "So… What'd you think of the concert?"
"It wasn't half bad. Aside from fighting a giant panda version of our mom, which was fun, the concert was pretty entertaining," Shang replied, "Honestly, I'm just glad I got to spend time with my sister," he said, pulling her in for a side hug.
"Aww, Shang-Shang," Mei threw her arms around his torso, nuzzling the side of his chest.
"Aw yeah! A-rank!" Shang fistpumped, having finished the mission in his game. Mei giggled, nuzzling him a little more.
"Speaking of the fight with mom… what was with that energy stuff? You had claws and shot a Kamehameha," Mei said. Shang looked at her with surprise, "What? I watch that show too sometimes."
"It's complicated. Let's just say we're both special now," Shang told her rather vaguely.
Mei giggled as she watched her brother play his game. He was almost done with the boss battle he was on. However, his game was put on pause by Mei, "Hey!" he looked at his sister.
Shang then found himself pushed further onto his bed. He looked up to see Mei looking down at him.
"Mei?" Shang looked at her.
"Shang-Shang…" Mei gently took her brother's face into her hands, "I want to thank you for always being there for me."
Mei leaned in and planted a kiss Shang's right cheek, followed by the left.
"Heh. Mei, it's really no big—"
"Not done," Mei cut him off midsentence.
Mei planted two more kisses upon her brother, this time on both corners of his mouth.
"Uh, Mei, that's a little close—mmph!"
Shang was cut off for a second time. This time he was cut off by Mei closing her eyes and pressing her lips firmly against his. Shang's eyes widened, his heartrate increasing a little. He was at a loss for words, unable to fully process this. His first kiss… was with his sister. Surprisingly though, Shang soon found his eyes closing, followed by his arms wrapping around his sister's waist in an embrace. This pulled Mei in closer thus deepening the kiss between her and her brother.
The twins moaned into each other's mouths as their tongues met, both wrestling for dominance. They weren't sure if was the temperature of the room or the intensity of their little makeout session, but their bodies were starting to heat up. For a brief moment, Mei broke the kiss, a strand of saliva connecting her tongue to Shang's. The red-haired twin gripped the bottom of her shirt, pulling it over her head and tossing aside. Since she didn't wear a bra, Mei chest was exposed. Not that there was anything to cover, she was still 13 after all.
Not wanting his sister to feel embarrassed, Shang removed his shirt as well. Mei smiled and went back in, locking lips with her brother once more. The two held each other, enjoying the warmth of each other's bodies as they kissed. Their little kissing session lasted for what felt like hours, though in reality, it was only a few minutes. They were enjoying it, until Mei felt something prodding her stomach.
Mei lifted herself off Shang, sitting on her knees. She looked down between her brother's legs and saw that the crotch of his shorts was up. Did… Did he have an erection? Mei tilted her head curiously. Her curiosity getting the better of her, Mei reached out grabbed Shang's shorts, hooking her fingers inside the waistband of his briefs. She pulled his shorts and underwear, his cock springing to life.
Mei gasped under her breath, her eyes going wide as her cheeks heated up, her tail suddenly appearing. It wasn't her brother's erection itself that surprised her, but rather its size. It was extremely long and very thick with a visible vein on the side. Mei reached out, poking it with a finger which caused to twitch a little. She then took ahold of it, gripping it lightly in her soft hand. It was thick, she could barely fit her hand around it. She could even feel it pulse occasionally.
When Mei gave Shang a small stroke, her brother released a small moan. Like a moth to a flame, Mei leaned in, sticking her tongue out. From base to tip, she gave the underside of her brother's shaft a slow lick. Mei gave Shang several small strokes along with a few good licks. It was if her hand and her mouth knew just what to do. Speaking of which, Mei opened her mouth, ready to have a real taste of Shang.
"Wait a minute, Mei!" Shang placed a hand on his sister's forehead, stopping her, "I don't think we should be doing this."
There was a brief pause between the twins.
"You're right, Shang-Shang. We shouldn't be doing this," Mei said, seemingly agreeing with her brother.
However, a devious smirk then crossed Mei's face. The red-haired twin proceeded to remove her own shorts and underwear, leaving her just as naked as her brother. Now it was Shang's turn to blush. Sure, the twins had taken baths together when they were little, so this wasn't the first time they've seen each other naked. That didn't make it any less weird though. Mei crawled up to Shang then turned around.
"We should be doing this," Mei corrected, her voice sounding almost seductive as their genitals faced each other, her ass just inches from her brother's face.
Mei turned her attention back to her brother's enormous cock, taking ahold of it with both hands. She chuckled then lapped at it a few, getting it nice a wet with her saliva while also giving him a few strokes.
"Come on, Shang. Don't just look," Mei said, shaking her ass in Shang's face.
Shang sighed. Seeing as how there was no fighting this, Shang grabbed Mei's waist, leaning in and gave Mei's slit a slow lick. She tasted vinegary with a hint of salt. Which was fine with him since he liked salt and vinegar. Mei released a shallow moan then wrapped her mouth around Shang's tip, humming as she lowered her head. While Mei was able to take in more of her brother's cock, she was only to go down halfway. Hell, she could barely fit the thing into her mouth to begin with.
The twins continued their fun for several minutes, using their mouths to please each other. At first, Shang was having second guesses about doing what he was doing with Mei. However, once he felt the sensation of his sister sucking his rod, he was enjoying it, as well as the taste of the juices from her pussy. The same went for Mei, who was enjoying her brother's shaft. Deep down, they knew what they were doing was probably wrong, but at same time they didn't care. It was too fun and felt too good not to enjoy.
Soon, Mei and Shang both felt a build up in their loins, the twins reaching their limit. With a few thrusts of his hips, Shang grunted, releasing himself. Mei's eyes widened as her mouth filled with a thick, hot, sticky liquid from her brother's cock. Mei swallowed, the sticky load going down her throat and to her stomach. The panda girl hummed in delight, her toes curling and her tail swishing like a dog as she released herself. Shang's mouth was sprayed with the juices of his sister, Shang licking his lips shortly after.
Mei slowly removed her mouth from Shang. She got off her brother, turned around and lied on top. The two kissed just as they did earlier, holding each other as their saliva mixed.
After several minutes of kissing and cuddling, the twins put their clothes back on. Not wanting their parents to catch them together in the morning, Mei decided to head back to her room. Shang opened the door for her.
"Well, that was fun," Mei commented.
"Uh, yeah. I guess it did feel pretty good," Shang smirked, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head, his cheeks heating up. He then felt his sister wrap her arms around his waist.
"I look forward to doing this again tomorrow night," Mei told him in a rather sultry tone, her eyes half-lidded with a newfound lust behind them.
"So do I," Shang replied, returning the hug.
The twin shared a brief kiss before breaking their embrace. Mei turned to walk out, brushing her tail underneath her brother's chin, Shang giving her a smack on the ass.
"Oh, and Shang," Mei turned back to her twin, Shang looking at her, "Don't be afraid to go after Priya and Stacy," she told him.
"Huh?" Shang tilted his head.
"You know those two have massive crushes on you, right?" Mei asked.
"Well, I had a feeling. I just thought it was a bunch of harmless flirting," Shang commented, "But wouldn't it be weird bringing my best friend and one of your best friends into this?"
"No. If anything, it'll make things more fun," Mei replied, tracing a circle in the center of Shang's chest with her finger, causing Shang to blush. There was a brief pause between the twins. "See you in the morning, handsome," Mei winked at Shang then walked out with a sway of her hips.
"See you… beautiful," Shang muttered to himself.
Shang shut the door. The martial artist proceeded to turn off his console along with his TV, and then went back to bed. It was just another day in the life of Shang Lee. Little did Shang know, just like Mei, his life was about to change.
And that's the end of this chapter. It took a while, but here it is. This is also the end of the movie arc. The movie arc was more of Mei's story. From this point on, it'll truly be Shang's story.
I'm still looking for a rival for Shang. Someone to be the Shadow to Shang's Sonic, or the Vegeta to Shang's Goku. If you have ideas for that, say it in a review or feel free to message me.
