Ed was running for his life alone in the forest, he left his friends on their own and regrets that h didn't stay with them and help them but when he was told to run he did so. But the thing that was weird in some way is the fact that he didn't hear any scream so there was hope that they were okay at least they were run toward him. And with that thought in mind he looked behind him hoping to see Al and Sim but what he saw was nothing near cool… it was two of the member of the group of animals: the bird and the snake.
«Holy crap!» he shouted as he struggles to run faster…running was not really his thing. Suddenly, the bird lands right in front of him making Ed stops right there. He turns around to run but the snake was there too in front of him….he was trap
«You can run away now!» says the bird to him while extending hi swings to look much bigger and to block his way too.
«don't make something you will regret» th snake warned him while taking a fighting stance
«wow wow easy there alright? i didn't do anything wrong! and does every animals here speak like us?» Ed try to stay calm but the situation was really disturbing
« what do you mean speak like you? we all speak…what does that sound weird to you? and what are you?» the crane asked to the young man who turn around to face him
«Duh?! you're not suppose to talk! animals don't talk, they don't walk on two legs and they don't wear clothes as well» Ed says as he points to Crane's pants «are you guys some kind of alien or something?» he asked
«we should ask you that question!» says the snake in a tone not to agressive but certainly not friendly as well. «from what i see right now, you are the one who is strange»
«yeah yeah of course it's me the problem» the human says sacarstically
«surrender peacefully and we will have to fight. And believe me, you don't stand a chance you're outnumbered» the snake tell him. That seems to put the creature in deep thought for a while
Ed sighs «fine, i don't think that i have really the choice now, do i?» he surrender
«nope» the bird answers back
And with that they start walking towards were they came from and the two animals keep a sharp eye on the human.
With Al and Sim and the rest of the five and po
The humans were trying to keep up with the animals but it's no use: they were to skillfull and strong for of them even with Ash's training, especially the tiger.
Tigress does a palm stricke on the chest of Al that sent him flying and strucked a tree there making him unconscious. Sim on his side was struggling against all o them and found himself pined to the ground by monkey and po.
«it's no use, you can't win against all of us» says Monkey to him who was trying to break free but it was indeed 'no use'.
«Sim sighs «it is in this sort of momen that i wish you were here Ash» he says more to himself that to them. Tigress heard him but choose not to ask, the time for the questioning will come soon.
«let's wait for Crane and Viper and we will go back to the palace» says tigress while placing a unconscious Al beside Sim. After a while, crane and viper came to view with their prisoner and came to a halte near them «enough running?» she asks him
«enough running» Ed repeated trying to imitate the voice of tigress while mocking her.
She growls at him before commanding them to start walking toward the jade palace. They put the human before them, Sim was holding Al in his arms and Ed and Him stayed silent all the time during the journey. The five and po, them, were talking with each other with the exception of tigress who was keeping an eye on the prisoners they were bringing home to their master. She was wondering what kind of thing they were, what they were doing here, where do they came from…a lot of question and no answers at least for now. But something was off with these beings, she could clearly see that they were not fighting them for the pleasure but only to defend themselves (well, two of them at least) but the reports say they scared the travelers….Tigress sighs, this will not be as simple as they were hoping.
At the jade palace
The warriors and humans arrived at the jade palace, by the time Al had regain his conscioussness and was walking alogside his friends in front of the animals. Tigress took the lead of the group and opens the large gate of the Hall of heroes where Master Shifu is meditating. The group comes to a halte and Tigress bows to her Master «Master Shifu, we found and brought you the creatures» she tells him. The three were getting really fed up with the all 'creatures' thing.
«Good job my students, let's see what are we dealing with» Shifu says while turning around
The surprise in his eyes were visible for a brief second, a surprise visible by the three who was directly looking at him. Shifu starts walking around them and inspect them but says nothing. His students were wathing them too while standing aside.
Ed leans on the side and says to his friends «He changed a lot, Rocket Racoon» this results in Al and Sim to laugh while Ed chuckle to his own joke. Shifu stops in front of them looking at them with a confused look just like the warriors.
«Can i ask what's so funny» Shifu asked sternly to the three who were smiling like idiots
«OOooohhit's nothing of your concern» Al says sternly like Shifu looking at him dead in the eyes
«HHmmm, you're all in the jade palace, home of kung fu and the furious five and the dragon warrior» Shifu explaines to them
Ed snickered once again and says casually «go go power rangers» and with that Sim and Al were laughing again. This was getting on Tigress 's nerves and slaps Ed in the faces
«Show more respect to Master Shifu, monsters» she says to them
«and it is you who call us monsters? have you look yourself in a mirror?» Sim retorts. This cause Tigress to widens her eyes for a while and then she roars and lunges at him but was stops by a shout from Shifu.
«Enough Master Tigress! I will handle this from here» he told her. She calms down and take her place back with her fellow masters. «I will ask questions and you will answer them not more not less, i am clear?» the three nod «alright, what are you? some apes without fur?»
«something like that» one says «we are Humans but by the lokk you all give us and your reactions we suppose that it is new to you» another says
«what are you doing here?» The red panda asks
«don't know we are just here and we don't know why nor how» the third one says
«you know for your sake you will have to do better than this right?» he warns them
«oh yeah? and can you tell us what you're going to do to us? because we're just as lost as you are. We don't know why were are here for and why there is weird beings who look like animals and why they are talking?» Al told him
«i'm the one asks the questions i saide» shifu says raising his voice
«look old man, it's not going to help us speak if you yell at us, i hope you know that right? maybe it work with your tiger-dog their» he points at Tigress who snarls «but we are not your dog, we are not a threat if your wondering, we meant no ones harm. We are just there as confuse as you all» he finish
«you will stay in the dungeon of the palace while i think about what to do wit-» shifu was saying but was cut off by Sim
« are you seriously putting us in prison?! like mère animals in a cage?» he looks at the group of warriors «sorry wrong choice of word»
«You are strangers in a world you do not understand. The Jade Palace's mission is to protect the valley and its inhabitants. Your arrival has caused trouble. It's my duty to make sure you're not a threat" he explain
"we already told you that we weren't a threat" Ed retorts
"If you have peaceful intentions, then it is your duty to prove your innocence. You will be monitored and treated like prisoners, until I am satisfied that you are not a threat… take them to the dungeon" he says and orders his students.
