Kung Fu Panda Fanfic - The Rise of a Hero

(X) Skipdoosh

Kai stood at the foot of the mountain, looking nonchalantly at the massive wall of ice. As if it were an insignificant obstacle. Kai charged forward and jumped as high as he could while throwing his chained swords up. The jade blades jammed hard into the ice, and Kai used them as support to propel himself up again. Aturn past the half of the wall of ice, Kai ran up the ice wall in a few seconds, using his swords as props embedded in the ice. Finally, he gave a mighty jump and landed hard on the solid rock in front of the panda village.

His fall wreaked havoc on the ground, and a small tremor shook the mountain. Kai stood up, and saw a peculiar panda with crossed arms waiting for him by the entrance of the village.

Kai: - Oh. You must be the famous Dragon Warrior. -

After: - And you must be Kai. I thought you would never arrive. -

Kai: - You, insolent panda. For a moment I thought about sparing your life, but -

Before Kai could finish his sentence, Po turned and walked into the village, but not before giving Kai a defiant look. The mythical bull began to rage at such disrespect, and a green miasma began to surround his figure from his body. His eyes began to glow, and Kai took several of the jade stones from his belt.

When: -matless to all. -

He whispered to the stones and then hurled them into the village using one of his swords, which swung hard to strike the jade stones.

As if it were an asteroid shower, the jade stones flew over the stone wall that ran the length of the village while leaving a shadowy trail of green miasma behind them, and shortly before touching the ground, the stones began to fall. to glow and become the jade warriors from whom Kai stole their Chi.

One by one, the living jade statues landed hard on the ground. The two badger masters, along with the Crocodile, Rooster, Porcupine, Bear, Gorilla, Monkey, Crane, Mantis, and finally Master Shifu, descended from the skies turned to stone. And a terrifying green miasma emanated from his eyes.

Po was a few meters from where they fell, looking sadly at those who were once his friends. And after taking a deep breath, he ran it as fast as he could to the interior of the villa. Kai thought it was a joke, so he didn't care too much about it, sending all his warriors after Po, but he had a beam up his sleeve.

Po disappeared from sight around a corner of the village, but when the warriors caught up with him, they were in for a big surprise. Po was waiting for them, his face defiant and his hands resting on the gigantic stone hammer that had once belonged to his father, and behind it, a long wall of shields made of bamboo.

Po: - Charge! -

At Po's command, the shield wall charged headlong into the Jade Warriors, taking Kai by surprise as he had to control them one by one. The biggest and strongest pandas were in the front row, and equipped with different work tools, they began to beat up the statues with all their might.

Swords, knives, or any edged weapon was useless against the hard crust of jade statues, but blunt objects such as hammers, hoes, axes, shovels, or picks were effective enough to deal heavy blows to the jade. Hits that Kai received one by one. But that was only the advance.

The powerful statues of the masters Bear and Gorilla, launched without much effort several pandas into the air, crumbling the shield wall, and the line of defense turned into a pitched battle.

Despite their "unusual combat styles," the pandas were able to take on the Jade Army with minimal casualties. From launching yourself through the air and landing hard on the statues, to rolling down the hills and ramming them. Even the children threw explosive firecrackers at him from the safety of the buildings, away from the conflict that was taking place outside.

As Kai's forces spread out across the village, Tigress fiercely confronted Master Crocodile bare-handed. The master didn't hesitate before the powerful bite of the world's deadliest jaw, but rather gracefully dodged the huge demolition club that the crocodile had on the tip of its tail. He used his palms to land powerful punches in the style of sumo sparring, to avoid damaging his knuckles.

Viper and Mei Mei faced the badger masters together in a unique dance of blows. Mei Mei used her chained sickle with grace and precision to knock down and tie up the statues while Viper landed powerful blows with a few huge nunchakus.

On the other hand, Po was facing several statues at the same time, using the huge stone hammer that belonged to his father. His powerful blows created deep cracks on the hard jade, which gave him a great advantage in combat.

However, right in front of him came the statue of Master Shifu. Po was shocked. He couldn't face his former master. However, the statue of Shifu began to hit him mercilessly, and Po could do nothing but try to dodge the blows. Po was cornered against a wall when: BAM! His father Li commanded to blow up Shifus statue with a pan.

Li: - Don't worry son. The cavalry's here. - Li said, wearing an improvised bamboo armor.

Po: - Pa. Be careful... Where is...? -

Lee: - Calm down. Mr. Ping is taking care of the children. You go on, leave this little one to me. -

Po: - Thanks, Pa. Use this. I have to go find Kai. -

Po handed the hammer to Li and climbed onto the rooftops so he could see Kai, leaving Li to face off against Master Shifu. Master was small and agile. He could easily find the gaps and weak points in Li's armor, but the panda was not far behind. After so many years, Li had become an expert in using the huge hammer, which he wielded with ease despite its great weight and size. He even landed a direct hit on more than one occasion that sent Master into the wall, but the jade statue barely flinched.

The incessant rain of blows that each of the jade statues received reflected directly on Kai, who could barely stand on his feet outside the village. Po saw it from a distance and launched himself hard towards a small snowy slope. How he had learned living with the pandas, he turned his body into a ball that began to accumulate more and more snow as it went down the hill. And without warning, a huge sphere more than four meters in diameter impacted directly on Kai.

The bull simply didn't see it coming, distracted by all the beatings the statues were taking, which were nothing more than an extension of his own power. But when he managed to recover, it was already too late. Startled, he saw Po next to him, with his fingers holding his hand and with the perfect shape of the Wuxi Finger key ready to defeat him.

Po looked directly at Kai with an indifferent and slightly angry face, although the bull had not yet processed what had happened.

Po: - I'm sorry friend, but I have to send you back to the spirit world. Skipdoosh! -

Po yelled loudly and time seemed to have stopped. No it sounded nothing, neither the birds chirping, nor the battle that was taking place inside the villa. Everything seemed to be in peace and harmony, but something bad had happened.

Po looked terrified as Kai was still standing in front of him, showing a macabre smile on his face. His only hope hadn't worked.
