Ming walked through the portal and gave up her panda but then looked at her daughters

Ming: please. Just come with me.

Met: we're changing mom. We're finally figuring who we are

Jia: it's not perfect but we like it.

Mei: but we're scared it'll take us away from you.

Ming: Me too. I see you girls. You try to make everyone happy but are so hard on yourselves and if I taught you that... I'm sorry. So don't hold back. For anyone. The farther you both go the prouder I'll be.

The portal disappeared and the moon was no longer red. Then sun Yee appeared in front of Mei and Jia

Mei: we're not going to regret this are we?

The three of them turned into red pandas and sun yee hugged them
