More than a dragon Warrior

Meeting Juniors

Meeting Juniors

[3rd POV]

"We need to act fast and complete our mission. We must find out more about the weapon and report back to Master Shifu." Tigress said to her fellow prisoners in a serious voice.

They were currently in the largest suite of Baoxiang Inn, held as prisoners of war with every exit tightly guarded by Gorilla soldiers.

As the name would suggest, the suite they were in was built with all the luxury that ancient China could afford. So the Furious Five and Po were enjoying their stay even if they were prisoners in name.

"Are you even listening to me?" Tigress asked with a helpless sigh as she watched her fellow students enjoying the luxury they were given.

Monkey was sleeping lazily on a hammock and he was using bananas instead of a blanket to cover himself. Viper was currently receiving a massage from a small and nimble rabbit that cracked and adjusted her spin much to her comfort.

Crane was standing in one corner and was surrounded by different books of novels. He was contently reading them while plugging his ears so he did not hear what Tigress said at all. Mantis sat on top of Crane's hat, idly reading the book as well since it was about romance.

Po was a little further away from them and he was eating from the table which was filled with different dishes from all across China. They were made by different Chefs and Po didn't forget to ask or the recipes of any dishes he liked more than the others.

"Guys!!" Tigress yelled out and finally caught the attention of everyone in the room. They looked at her with questioning eyes.

"We can't just stay here forever and simply wait to be rescued! We have to do something!" She said in frustration. It felt like she was the only one taking the mission seriously while her friends were easily distracted by everything Lord Shen threw at them.

"Ummm..I mean, what else are we supposed to do?" Mantis asked with a shrug to which everyone else agreed.

From what they could see, Shen was not enslaving the people of the city or starving them. And he was also not trying to deploy his armies to launch an attack on China like he did in the movie since he waited for Tai Lung.

So there was really not much to do.

"I-I don't know." Tigress began, "But what I do know is that we can't stay here forever."

"Po!" She called and turned to the Panda who froze midway through putting the steamed bamboo shoot in his mouth.

"You are the Dragon Warrior, so you should decide what we are going to do." She said and every eyes suddenly turned to him. Even the rabbit who was massaging Viper.

Po slowly put the bamboo shoot in his mouth and swallowed loudly. "I mean, we can stay here for a few more days and wait for Master Tai Lung to come. If we leave so soon, we'd be thowing away his efforts of saving us right? That would be rude." He said and got the nod of agreement from the others.

"What? We can't just sit here like ducks and wait for him. Besides, how do you know for certain that he is going to come to our rescue?" Tigress asked.

"Oh, the old goat lady told me. She said Shen has been waiting for Tai Lung so he had not made any moves yet and I trust her." Po said, "She can do these Vodoo, looking into the future thingie."

"But still, we can't just do nothing." She said, feeling a little ashamed already at the thought of Tai Lung coming to save them without them doing anything.

Would he be disappointed in her?

"Orrrrr...maybe we can." Monkey said, "I am pretty sure Shen will not do anything stupid as long as big brother Tai Lung exists."

Viper laughed, "Yeah, did you see the way he froze when he learned Tigress was his sister?" she hissed.

The others laughed remembering the almost panicked look on Shen's face and the way he ordered his soldiers to release her from her chains immediately.

"Man, I wish I was his brother too." Mantis said, "Or maybe I can be his son? You know I never really knew my father. It was because my mom ate his head before I was born."

"Next time we get interrogated, how about I tell Shen that I am Tai Lung's secret son? You guys will support me. Then maybe I will be allowed to get out of this inn and search for my own fair lady." Mantis said.Findd new stories at novelhall.comen City was known for its ladies and resort. He thought that if he were to find a wife of his own, there was a high chance of that happening in the city.

But alas, he was a prisoner. Although it was luxurious and had you could get any material thing you could dream of, you couldn't get love in a room.

"Mantis, I don't think anyone is going to believe that," Viper said.

"Why not? It's Tai Lung we are talking about here. Plus, he has inner peace meaning he can do impossible things. His seeds being able to impregnate another species doesn't seem so far-fetched."

"I think you are forgetting the most important part." Crane said and his eyes looked up at Mantis, "How is he supposed to get in there?"

"Oh." Mantis muttered in realization. "You're right. I didn't think about that."

But not a second later, a creepy smile crossed his face and so did Crane's. There must've been something that gave them an idea amongst the romance books they have read.

"Well, he can alwasy ru-"

"Guys!!" Viper hissed, "Could you not!! Po is here."

"Oops, almost said it out loud. Sorry, Po, I forgot that you didn't know about 'that' yet." Mantis said, and Po looked around in confusion.

"Speaking of, congratulations on attaining inner peace." Tai Lung said as he could feel Po's endless Chi constantly leaking out from him.

Unlike Tai Lung who could enter and exit the state of inner peace, Po was constantly in that state. He was leaking out his Chi around him and was constantly affecting his environment.

There was no control over his Chi, Tai Lung noticed.

But unlike what others would have thought, it works well for Po. If Tai Lung were to stay in a state of inner peace constantly, his Chi would inevitable run out after weeks or maybe months even if he did not do anything.

But Po wouldn't have to worry about that because the amount of Chi he had was endless. Literally endless as Tai Lung could not feel the depth of it. He could not tell how much Chi Po had.

He thought he had a huge amount of Chi but compared to Po, it was like comparing water in a lake to an ocean.

Endless versus finite.

Tai Lung was forced to reflect upon the privilege of being the universe's chosen one. Maybe Kai exploding due to so much Chi after Po gave his chi to him was not just a bullshit for writers to make Po win.

That part was always sad to Tai Lung even in his past life. General Kai who had constantly been training his Chi for 500 years, that too in the spirit realm where you could learn a lot of things about Chi than the outside world.

Kai developed different Chi techniques and even invented a way to steal others Chi. Yet he was defeated by a newly awakened Chi user and that too by just the quantity of Po's Chi alone.

He was a spirit warrior, said to be immortal but he was defeated just like that.

"Oh, you noticed." Po said while rubbing the back of his head with a proud smile. It felt great to be complimented by someone you admired.

"Yes, it's quite obvious with all of the Chi leaking out of you." Tai Lung hummed, wondering if that would have an effect on people.

"I will have to teach you how to control it properly." Tai Lung said with a smile. Some selfish people might think that it was not wise to teach Po and make him stronger.

Po already had so much Chi so what would happen if he was taught how to use it properly? Wouldn't his title as the strongest be challenged?

But that thought never even crossed Tai Lung's mind. His mentality was that of the strong, if he was the strongest only because he put other people down, then he didn't deserve such title.

He is the strongest because he is Tai Lung. If others got strong, he would just get even stronger to surpass them.

Besides, he was a Kung Fu enthusiast and would never miss an opportunity to witness the growth of the greatest Kung Fu master that will ever live. Yes, he believes that the future Po can surpass even Oogway. He was the chosen one, after all, the protagonist of the universe.

Plus Tai Lung would never deny a challenge.

"Tai Lung." Tigress finally spoke up before stepping towards him. He cracked a genuine smile while she remained serious.

"What is happening outside?" She asked, "What are going to do next?"

It was two related questions. What is happening outside? Was there chaos amongst the citizens and had Lord Shen made a move? And whatever the answer was, what are they going to do about it?

Were they going to escape? With Tai Lung here they could just break out from the inn, there wouldn't be a need to be discreet. Or are they going to bring down Lord Shen?

"You guys are free now." Tai Lung said, "And about what your next course of action...."

"You will do nothing and return back to the Jade Palace." He said, and everyone nodded at his words.

They put his words on the same level of importance as Master Shifu's.

"And the situation.." Tai Lung drawled and looked at each and every one of them.

"Shen and I have formed an alliance."
