Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Wolf and Tiger. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own Kung Fu Panda, DreamWorks does.

(The Valley of Peace, 2 days after Kai's defeat.)

Kiba waited for Master Heiwa at the bottom of the steps leading up the Jade Palace, he leaned against the walls near the bottoms of the steps, he crossed his arms.

"Master, are you always this late?"

Kiba asked, he had to push his wedding back with Tigress to next week or so due to his father not showing up…. Not that Kiba ever wanted to meet his birth father, not after the abuse he had to go through with him when he had been a child…. Master Heiwa had been more of a father.

"You must have patience, Kiba…. I had to have a fleet worth of it when I was teaching you… And Bokun."

Kiba heard as he opened his eyes, in front of him was a Serow, a small but wise looking Goat- Antelope in a black and red robe with sandals, Kiba smiled at him.

"Took you long enough, old man…. My fiancée was beginning to wonder if you were even going to show up."

Kiba muttered before rushing forward and hugging the smaller animal, Heiwa returned his adopted son's hug. They rose and Kiba looked his former master and father in the eye before speaking.

"So, this is the Valley of Peace that I've heard so much about? It seems…. Smaller than I thought it would have been for the city in which China's heroes were in."

Kiba heard from Master Heiwa as they started their climb up the mountain, Kiba rolled his eyes.

"Missed you too, Master Heiwa…. Master Shifu and Po should be at the top of the hill and waiting for us when we arrive…. Their going to be waiting to talk to you, I've had to talk to them the entire time until I decided to walk down into town…"

Kiba muttered, Heiwa took in his surroundings, he grunted in response, Kiba rolled his eyes and spoke up again.

"My fiancée is going to kill me for waiting for so long… I've been waiting for you all week, she's been wanting to be married ever since I proposed 2 days ago…. Then again, she's been getting mad at a lot of things recently…."

Kiba muttered, he loved Tigress but her temper unsettled even him at times, he wasn't used to her getting mad so often, at Po maybe, but never at him.

"I am still surprised you proposed to her, I didn't think you'd have it in you to find someone to settle down with…"

Kiba heard his master mutter, he rolled his eyes in response, his father was many things, honest and blunt were 2 of them.

"I've changed from the kid you taught back then, Master Heiwa… You don't know everything about me…. At least, not about the things I've been up to recently… I've had to deal with a lot of villains, and even more evil in my life, it's been annoying… But fun, keeps me alert and ready for more danger… And it isn't so boring when you get the hang of it."

Kiba muttered, he grunted in annoyance at some of the villains he had to endure over the years before dealing with Kai.

"Yes, how have you been feeling about your brother…. I know he's turned into… Well, something monstrous due to his last defeat against you…"

Kiba heard from his father, they were reaching the top of the stairs, Kiba grunted in annoyance, his 'Brother', if he could even stand to call his adopted sibling that after his last attack in Japan, had been a sore problem for them to talk about, it wasn't something he wanted to talk about at the moment, however….

"There will be plenty of time to talk to him when we get back… I don't ever want to deal with that monster again…. He gets a slight taste for power and this happens…. So much…. I don't wish to think about my…. Bokun at the moment, he will be a thorn I want to get out of the way if he ever shows his face again…."

Kiba muttered, he reached the gates of the palace, and rolled his eyes, he turned to his father.

"Welcome to the Jade Palace, father, I hope you will be be ok here."

Kiba muttered.
