His Weakness

Leo was in his room, meditating on his knees. He could hear the excitement in Po's room. The Furious Five and Po were sparring because it Po's two favorite things; food and Kung Fu. It was Dragon Warrior Day. He exits his room and was about to dash into Po's room until he saw Shifu standing outside of Po's room.

Shifu nodded his head to Leo.

"And that what's make me the Dragon Warrior." Po said. But he notice Leo wasn't in the room. "Where's Leo?"

Leo quickly tackles Po as Shifu slides the door open, causing the bean cake flying in the air and landed in Leo's hand. "Happy Dragon Warrior Day, Po." Leo said.

"Thanks, Leo." Po smiled as he got into his stance. He dives toward Leo.

Leo tosses the bean cake onto his head and dodges Po's belly flop. He throws at punch at Po, but the panda grabs his hand and used his belly to push Leo away. He caught the bean cake and was about to eat it until Leo did a underhand tap to avoid the panda's mouth.

"Ha!" Leo yelled as he dives above the panda's head. He landed on all fours with the bean cake on his back. Po came at him with a kick and Leo quickly got up on feet and blocks the kick.

Po use the opportunity to dive at Leo but Leo jumps up to avoid the dive and Po caught the bean cake.

"Now that was awesome." Po said as he leans on the door with the bean cake.

Shifu opens the door, knocking Po down. "Po, the imperial sculptor is here to capture you-"

Po lifts his face from the floor and looks over at Shifu with food on his face.

"Magnificence." Shifu finished.

Po gasps. "Cool!" he smiled.


Afternoon came as the Dragon Warrior Festival starts in an hour. Shifu, Leo and The Furious Five was standing in front of the statue of Po.

"Any idea where Po is?" Leo asks Shifu.

"I don't know." Shifu said as he looks at the village people. "The Dragon Warrior Festival starts in an hour and Po is nowhere to be seen." He looks at his students. "I need you to find him."

They all bowed and started searching for Po.

"Start at the dumpling carts!" Shifu called out to them.

Leo headed over to the first dumpling cart. "Excuse me." Leo said to male goat. "Have you seen the Dragon Warrior come by here?"

"N-no." the goat stuttered nervously.

"Why are you nervous?" Leo asked, giving the goat a confused look.

"I'm not nervous!" the goat quickly answered and runs away from him.

Leo didn't say anything as he notice several villagers were giving him nervous looks. They were still afraid of him. Leo shakes his head and continued searching for the Dragon Warrior. As he continued searching, there was a voice yelling. Leo went out to the open and saw a rhino running in anger.

"I'll find a way to make him fight me." the rhino said as he stops running.

"And who will that be?" Leo called out to him.

"The Dragon Warrior." the rhino answered. "Who else?" Then the rhino notices Leo. "Who are you?"

"I'm Leo." Leo answered.

"Leo?" the rhino wondered. "You're a human?" He takes a look at Leo.

"Yeah and who are you?"

"I'm Hundun." Hundun introduced himself.

"What are you doing here and who are you trying to make someone fight you?" Leo asked.

"I am here to destroy the Dragon Warrior Po." Hundun growls in anger.

"What?" Leo gasps as he got into a fighting stance. "Why?"

"I was a guard at Chor-Gorm Prison." Hundun explains. "Right upfront in the front line of defense against Tai Lung and a human appeared out of nowhere, helping Tai Lung to escape. After Tai Lung escaped, he was defeated by that idiot Dragon Warrior. The human who helped him was also been defeated by another human. We lost our only prisoner and the prison was boarded up. I lost everything. My job, my home, my wife and kids."

"If I haven't done anything, everyone, including you, would be killed by Zhao." Leo growled. "Guess what would happen if Zhao still alive. He'll come after you, your wife and kids."

"What?" Hundun gasps. He thought about it and then spoke. "You're right. Thank you for destroying Zhao."

Leo nodded his head.

"But I will still have my revenge against Po." Hundun said as he started to charge at Leo.

Leo dove out of the way. He got up and sees Hundun was nowhere to be seen. "I have to warn Po." Leo said.

Ten minutes has passed by and he sees them walking.

"And then he threaten to kill me." Po said to them.

"There's a rhino who wants you dead, so you got him a job, a place to live and taught him how to kill you?" Tigress asks him as Leo ran up and heard what she said.

"Yeah." Po smiled. But then he understood what she meant. "Yeah." he said nervously.

"Uh, what?" Leo asked confused. "You taught Hundun how to kill you?"

"How do you know Hundun?" Mantis asks him.

"I just ran into him." Leo answered. "I lost him after he tried to charge at me."

"Where's Hundun now?" Tigress asks Po.

"I don't know." Po answered. "I mean, he said he was gonna make me fight him, which, how could he do that?"

Then they heard Mr. Ping yelling. "Po!" Mr. Ping yelled. "Help me!"

"Dad!" Po exclaims. He runs toward several people and looks up. On the roof was Hundun. He was holding Mr. Ping by the neck.

"Let him go, Hundun!" Po called to him.

"Po, help me!" Mr. Ping shouted down below to the villagers. "Eat at Mr. Ping's Noodle Shop! Save me from a certain demise! Everything half-off before five o'clock!"

"So, willing to fight me now, Dragon Warrior?" Hundun taunted him.

"This is between you and me!" Po shouted.

"The only thing between you and me will be my fist, coming from me, punching you!" Hundun shouted.

"Put my dad down, Hundun!" Po yelled, taking a stance. "I don't want to hurt you!"

"You're the one who will feel hurt from my hurting you!" Hundun yelled.

Leo and Tigress stops Po before he can lunge at him.

"Don't do it, Po." Leo said to him.

"You taught him you're weakness." Tigress said. "We'll handle this."

The Five jumps towards Hundun as Leo stayed behind with Po.

"No." Po muttered, remembering what he forgot to tell them. "Uh, guys, I forgot I accidently told him your weakness too!"

The Five were stunned as landed near Hundun. Po cringe as he and Leo watch the Five get attacked.

"Armpit! Blind spot! Front! Tail! Ankle!" Hundun shouted as he attacked the Furious Five.

The Furious Five landed back on the ground, defeated in front of Leo and Po.

"Oh." Po muttered, looking at the Furious Five. He was turned around by Leo. The Dragon Warrior can see anger in his eyes.

"I'll handle this." Leo growled.

"But-" Po was about to say.

"I said I'll handle this!" Leo snapped at him, tightening his grip on Po's shoulders. There was a sudden change in the air. The air around Po was beginning to feel hot. Leo lets him go and jumps toward Hundun. Hundun tried to punch him but Leo pushes it before he grabs the rhino's arm and did several knee strikes.

"Ahh!" Hundun shouted, letting go of Mr. Ping.

Mr. Ping started flapping his wings and flew to a safe distance as Leo jumps away and landed besides Po. Hundun lands in front of them and all three gotten into their stance.

"I don't want this, Hundun." Po said to the rhino. "I still think of you as my friend. So let's stop now and call it even."

"Ha ha ha!' Hundun laughed. "You can't beat me. I know your weakness, and you cured me of mine."

"Oh did I?" Po smirked.

"Yes you did." Hundun smiled evilly.

"Oh." Po said. "Probably shouldn't have done that. I uh..."

"And I know you have a weakness too, Leo." Hundun said, turning his attention to Leo.

"Tch." Leo snarled, not lowering his guard. "I don't have a weakness."

"Sure you do." Hundun said.

"You're welcome to try, you damn bastard." Leo cursed at him.

Hundun charges at them. He did jump front kick at Po as Po blocks his kicks. Leo threw in some punches as well while the band started playing and everyone was watching the three of them fight.

"Gr!" Leo growled as he pushes away Hundun's punch, giving Po a chance to get some distance. He saw an opening and did a jump knee strike to the jaw, catching Hundun off balance.

"Ha!" Hundun shouted as he tried to kick him. Leo blocked every kick and blocks Hundun's punch with one arm.

"Hmph!" Leo grunted as he kneed the rhino in the stomach and punches his arm. The rhino charges at him. But Leo dodges him and as his hands landed on the ground, Leo pushes backward and kick Hundun hard in the back.

Po and Hundun were locked in a hold.

"Admit it." Hundun said. "You are defeated."

"There's two schools of thought on that: one!" Po use his belley to attack Hundun breaking the hold that made Hundun walks backward a few steps. "Two!" Po dives forward and kicks him in the jaw. He bounces Hundun at the sculptor with his fists, his belly again before he turns around and use his back. "Happy Dragon Warrior Day!" he shouted, sending Hundun flying in the air.

Hundun hits the hand and was falling back to the ground. Leo quickly ran by Po and stops underneath him.

"Leo!" Po shouted.

Leo raise his hand and caught Hundun by the throat. He stood there like the impact didn't faze him.

"What the hell?" Po stares in surprise and shocked.

Leo did a jump knee strike to the stomach that sent them in the air. He let go of the neck and did a front spin axe kick to the head that sent Hundun to the ground. The rhino bounce once off the ground and Leo landed on his back, slamming his fists hard to the back. He hops off of Hundun and looks down at the rhino as Po walks up to him.

"Hmph." Leo said, turning his back on Hundun. He walks toward the Five to check on them. Leo looks over his shoulder to see Po helping Hundun to his feet. He sighs and shakes his head and stops in front of the Furious Five.

"Oh!" The crowd gasps.

Leo quickly turns around and sees Hundun delivering a Swirling Lynx Round Kick several times at Po.

"Ugh!" Po grunted as he hits the ground, laying on his stomach.

"Ha ha!" Hundun laughs triumphally. "Your real weakness, Po, is not the kick, it's your heart. It's as big and sappy as an old sappy plum tree filled with plum sap."

"Gr!" Leo growled as he runs towards Hundun. He tackles Hundun off guard and got into a stance.

"So you still have someone to hide behind, you coward." Hundun growls. "They will be defeated as well."

"You won't defeat me that easily." Leo said.

"Oh yes I will, Leo." Hundun said. "You have a weakness and I will use it to defeat you from me defeating you."

"I don't have a weakness." Leo snarls at him as he ran towards him and the two warriors grabs each other, not moving.

"Give up, Leo." Hundun grunted. "Accept your defeat because you are weak like a man who failed to protect a someone!" He threw Leo towards the wall. Leo hit the wall with his feet and dives forward to stand on his feet. The rhino walks toward the Dragon Warrior.

Po lays on the ground, breathing heavily. "At least I have a heart." Po said, pushing himself off the ground and facing Hundun.

"Gr." the rhino growls angrily.

"But all I've done is been kind!" Po snaps at Hundun. "And all you've done is blame me for your rotten life! And guess what?! I love plum sap. How about that?" He close his eyes and points at him. Po didn't know he dodge the kick as Hundun landed on a cart. He opens his eyes and realize he dodge the kick. "I dodge the kick!"

Hundun does the kick again but Po slides underneath him.

"Sweet!" Po smiled. He dodge the kick and kicks Hundun's horn. He dodge every kick that Hundun thrown at him.

Hundun fell down onto the ground.

"Not sure if you realized this, but I just dodge your Swirling Round Kicks!" Po exclaims as he continues to harass Hundun. "Ha ha!"

Hudun looks over his shoulder and looks forward to see Po smacking the rhino's face before he ran and stood in front of the statue.

"You know what your weakness is, Hudun?!" Po called to him. "You stink at friendship."

Hundun charges at Po in rage.

"Roar!" Leo roared in anger. He threw himself in between Po and Hundun. Leo did a powerful headbutt to the rhino's head.

"Gah!" Hundun yelled.

Leo didn't give him a chance to attack back. He threw in several powerful jabs and hurricane kicks. Leo can hear Kaira chuckling as he pressed his attack. He caught both of Hundun's fists that was about to punch his face. Leo pushes them to side before he jabs the rhino's throat two times.

"Argh!" Hundun gasps in pain coughing.

Leo jumps and did a knee strike to the jaw before he quickly spun forward to do axe kick to the head. He landed behind the rhino and kicks his knees down to make Hundun kneel. Leo grabs his legs and began to spin him around several times. Then he threw Hundun several feet.

Po jumps above Hundun and pulling two fans from behind his back and hitting Hundun in the back. The rhino slams at the base of the statute, cracking it. The Dragon Warrior lands on his feet and the crowd of villagers started cheering.

"Flaming Wings!" Po yelled, striking a pose. The air suddenly became hot again. He turns to his left to see Leo walking by him.

Leo stops several feet behind Hundun as he watches the rhino pulling away to get unstuck. Hundun was free.

"Huh?" Hundun asked confused. He looks down and notice his horn was missing. Hundun looks down and sees a large piece of his horn. "My horn! My horn!"

The Furious Five were already up and was standing next Po.

"It's always something with this guy." Po said, looking at them.

"Po, look!" Tigress exclaims. "The statue!"

The statue leans forward and falls foward to Hundun as he watches in horror.

"Ngh!" Po grunted as he caught the statue from falling.

"You saved me." Hundun said, looking up at the Dragon Warrior. "Why?"

"That's what the Dragon Warrior does." Po said, trying his best to hold the statue. "Ah, this is heavy!"

Hudun thinks about it for a second. But he became angry. "Ha!" he shouted, pushing Po away. "I don't need your-" He looks up and sees the statue falling further. "Help!"

The statue crushes Hundun, creating a cloud of dust. Leo walks to the destroyed statue. He waved a small section of the cloud out of the way. Leo sees Hundun trying to crawl out of the rubble. He grabs him by the throat and lifts him in the air with one hand.

"Gr!" Leo growls as he began choking Hundun.

"Don't do it!"

He looks over his shoulder to see Po standing, looking at him. "Let Hundun go!" Po shouted, walking up to him. "He's already beaten."

Leo snarls and looks back at Hundun before he lets him go and the dust cloud cleared. The hot air around him disappeared. Leo turns around and looks at Po before he walks toward the Furious Five. Po notice several adults and kids who were terrified what Leo was doing to Hundun. Po didn't say anything as Leo joined the Five.


The next day, the Furious Five and the Dragon Warrior was in the Training Hall.

"So Po, did you enjoy, Dragon Warrior Day?" Monkey asks Po as Po was playing his Furious Five action figures along with a small Dragon Warrior Statue.

"Yeah!" Po smiled. looking over his shoulder.

"And not feeling bad that you exposed our weaknesses to Hundun and put us in mortal danger?" Crane asked.

"Uh." Po said. He puts his figure down and stands up to turn around and looks at them. "Of course. I feel terrible about that. I'm sorry I put you guys in danger."

"It's okay." Viper said as she slithers up to them with Tigress.

"Yeah, okay, apology accepted." Crane said.

"Aw, don't worry about it, t's okay." Monkey said.

"But hey." Po said. "Wasn't it the best Dragon Warrior Day ever in the history of all time?! Plus they reopened Chorh-Gom Prison, right? Hundun got his wish."

"True." Monkey said.

"Oh yeah, Po." Viper said. "How did your dad escaped Hundun?"

"Leo saved my dad when you were knocked out." Po answered. "Hundun didn't even land one punch on him."

"That's because Leo knows how to defend himself." Monkey said.

"Actually, Po has a point, Monkey." Viper said, looking at Monkey. "Leo walked away from the fight unharmed yesterday."

"And Leo said he doesn't have a weakness." Po said. "Everyone has a weakness right?"

"Yeah." Crane said. "Everyone does have a weakness."

"But why would Leo say that?" Po asked.

"I'll ask him about it when I have chance with Leo while Leo and I head down to the village to buy some groceries." Viper said. "See you later."


Leo and Viper were walking in the village, buying the groceries. He had a few bags in his arms while Viper slithers close carrying a light bag. Viper kept a close eye on him. Leo looks like he's normal as anyone. But she also notice that several people they pass by were whispering and pointing at Leo. She heard him sigh when they passed by.

"We have everything we need." Leo said. "Let's head back."

"Ok." Viper said.

When they were walking on the staircase, Viper looks up at Leo. "Everyone was happy to enjoy the Dragon Warrior Festival yesterday after they sent Hundun to prison." Viper said.

"I know." Leo said. "I just hope Po doesn't expose any weaknesses again."

"I agree." Viper agreed. "How are you feeling from yesterday?"

"I'm feeling fine, Viper." Leo said. "Just a little tired from yesterday after beating Hundun."

Leo and Viper made it to the Jade Palace and puts the groceries away. After the groceries was put away, Viper was about to ask a question as she turned but notice Leo left the room. Viper wonder where he went and decided to go look for him. She found him mediating outside of the Training Hall.

Leo stands up and did a hand stand. He just stood in that hand stand for at least fifteen minutes. He pushes himself up into the air and did a double hurricane kick before he landed and punches the ground hard. Leo quickly did two jabs a with a outside block before he did a low sweep.

Before Leo can do another punch, he looks at his two hands and arms.

"Hurry, we're almost there!"

"Just a little bit longer!"

"You can't save me!"

"Don't do it!"

"Goodbye!"

"NNOO!"

"It's been nine years since it happened." Leo muttered. "If only..." He tighten both of his fists as he thought about what happened nine years ago. "I can only blame myself. Damnit!" he yelled in anger. "Gr!" Leo left the courtyard without knowing Viper was watching him.

"Hm?" Viper wondered. "Leo seems to be angry about something. I better find Tigress and talk to her." She slithers inside the Training Hall and sees Tigress doing some training. "Hi Tigress." she greeted her.

"Viper, how was the shopping?" Tigress asks her as Tigress stops and looks at her.

"It was fine." Viper said. "But several more villagers was whispering and pointing at Leo. Looks like they're more afraid of him since what he almost did after what Po said."

"I know." Tigress said. "He shouldn't have done that."

"I agree." Viper replied. "Not to mention Hundun couldn't land a single blow on him."

"Yeah." Tigress said. "Any more people?"

"No." Viper answered. "When Leo and I got back and put the groceries away, he went out to the courtyard. I saw he was angry about something."

"I wonder what's he angry about." Tigress wondered.

"I heard him muttering about nine years." Viper said. "Do you think something happened?"

"I don't know." Tigress said. "From what Po heard from Leo and Hundun, something must've reminded him."

"We should talk to Leo about this." Viper said.

Tigress nodded her head and the two warriors left the Training Hall.


Flashback

Leo was running up to a high cliff in the middle of the day. He was hurt and seriously injured.

"Hurry, we're almost there!" one of the people cried from the mountain path.

He dove at the edge of the cliff and caught someone's hand. Leo couldn't see the person's face because of the afternoon sun is hitting his eyes. "I got you!"

"Leo...!"

Leo felt his body leaning off the edge. He and the person was about to fall through the air, but Leo grabbed the branch quickly with a free hand. "Grgh!" he grunted. He was trying to hold on to the person.

"We're almost there!" a voice shouted.

"Hurry!" Leo yelled. He looks back at the person. "Try to put your arms around my waist!"

"Leo, look!"

Leo looks up and notices the branch was beginning to break. "Shit!" he cursed.

"Leo, you have to let me go." the person said calmly.

"No, I can still save you!" Leo shouted, looking down at the person. The branch was about to snap.

"You can't save me, you're weak!"

"I'm not weak!"

"Don't forget about me!"

"Don't do it!"

"Goodbye!" the person cried. The person let go of Leo's hand.

Leo watched in shocked as the person fell through the air and disappeared in the fog below.

"NNOO!" Leo roared.

Flashback Ends


Leo sighs as he opens his eyes. He was laying down on the bed and he sat up. It's been nine years. He couldn't save that person. Leo stand up and left the room.

Leo left the barracks and stood outside of the Hall Of Heroes, looking down at the village.

"Leo." Tigress said behind him.

Leo turns around to look at her and Viper. "Tigress." Leo said. "What is it?"

"Is there something you're angry about?" Tigress asks him.

"You were angry when I saw you train." Viper said.

"Yeah." Leo replied.

"How come you're angry?" Viper asks him.

"There was someone that I couldn't save nine years ago." Leo answered. "I was weak and injured while I was trying to defend him against a corrupted general name General Jay. I caught him before he fell and we were about to fall when I grab a tree branch. The two of us stayed there for several minutes. I can hear several people trying to get up the hill. The branch was beginning to break. He told me that I was weak before he sacrificed himself."

"What was his name?" Tigress asks him.

"James." Leo answered. "After his death, I made sure to make myself stronger every day to cover my weakness And I don't want to repeat it again."

"I understand why you're angry." Tigress said.

"But anyone is not strong." Viper replied. "We all have weaknesses. Even you."

"Impossible." Leo said.

"It's true." Viper said. "There wasn't anything you can do. If James didn't let go, you would've died."

Leo knew the two girls were right. "I see." he replied.

"We learn from our mistakes that helps us in situations." Viper said. "And if someone is having trouble, their friends will always help."

"I understand." Leo smiled. "Thanks."

Tigress walks over and kisses him. Leo enjoyed the kiss and kissed her back. Viper couldn't help but smile. Leo broke the kiss.

"Let's head to the Training Hall to get some of your training done today, Leo." Viper smiled.

"Master Shifu gave me specific instructions and today's training will be hard." Tigress said to him.

"Fine."

The three of them went to the Training Hall for Leo's punishment.


This was fun to work on. Po did exposed his weakness and The Furious Five to Hundun, but even he didn't know about Leo's weakness. The next chapter is going to be really interesting. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and don't forget to leave a review!
