Chapter 2

Tigress's POV:

It's a normal day of training, I was in the gauntlet all the swinging arms flying at me while I hit them. Everything was always like it was.

It has been 6 months since Po defeated Kai in the spirit realm. Now everything is back to normal and everyone seem's happy. I stop my training for it is almost time for lunch, I walk out of the training hall when Crane comes from out of nowhere.

"What's up Crane?" I ask.

"Shifu wants to see us. He says it is something of the upmost importance." He replied.

"Ok then lets go. Are the others there already?" I ask.

"Yes. They are there. They are just waiting for us." He said.

We head toward the Hall of Heroes where Shifu and the others were. When we get there I could see there was some panic in Shifu's eyes. This can't be good.

"Ah, good. Tigress and Crane you're here. Now I must tell you all something." said Shifu.

"What is it master?" we all asked.

"There is a new threat coming." he replied.

"Ok then, we'll just kick his butt like we always kick bad butt." replied Po.

"No, you can't." said Shifu.

"What do you mean we can't, master?" I asked.

"I had a vision. I saw the threat, you guys tried to take him down but ultimately failed in doing so. I saw why as well." he said.

"Why?" asked Monkey.

"Every threat you have faced; Tai Lung, Shen, and Kai they all had a weakness. This new threat, I saw no weakness." Shifu replied.

"Then what do we do master?" I asked.

"There is one mammal I know that can defeat this threat." he said.

"Who?" we all asked.

"I have never told you guys this, because it was a little too had to, but when Tai Lung was sixteen a three year old cub showed up in the Valley of Peace, I found him roaming the streets and took him into the Jade Palace. He met Tai Lung and the two immediately got close. By the year those to were basically brothers, they always called each other brothers. They were inseparable.

A few months in having him here he got into Kung fu and he tried to show me he was interested but, I was too busy trying to train Tai Lung into the Dragon Warrior, so he went and trained himself. I don't know how he did it, but in three years he finished the thousand scrolls of kung fu." he said.

"Wow!" exclaimed Po.

"Wait master, why have you never spoke about this before?" I asked.

"It was too hard. I never really paid attention to him when he tried to show me something, I ignored him for three years. There is another thing I should tell you. The day Tai Lung betrayed us, it wasn't Master Oogway that stopped him, it was him." he replied.

"What's his name master?" asked Crane.

"His name is Tao Khan. He is probably the best skilled in kung fu under Oogway that I have ever met in my existence. He took down Tai Lung in a sparring match withing five seconds after he got through finishing the thousand scrolls of kung fu." he said.

"So you think this Tao Khan can defeat this new threat?" I asked.

"I know he can. If anyone, he can." he replied.

"So what, where is he?" asked Viper.

"That I do not know. But Tigress and Crane I want you both to go out and look for him." Shifu said.

"What, and how do you expect us to find him master? We don't know where start." I replied.

"When he left at the age of seven he left a note behind saying we'd meet again, but til that day he would be between cold and warm, snow and rain. That is the best I can leave you with. For even I am puzzled at what it means." he said.

"Why aren't you going, master?" I asked.

"I feel I must stay here. So I am sending you two on this journey." he replied.

"Crane may I speak t you alone for a moment." said Shifu.

"Of course master." Crane replied.

Crane's POV:

What did Master Shifu want to talk to me alone for? Well I'm about to find out. We left the Hall of Heroes and he turned to me.

"What is it master?" I asked.

"Do not tell Tigress this yet, I want it to be a surprise for her. I know she will be surprised by it for she hasn't seen another." he said.

"What do you mean master?" I asked very confused.

"Tao Khan is a tiger."
