A/N: Just to let you know that the beginning of this chapter will take place right after Date Night chapter/part in case you are wondering, anyways enjoy this chapter.

As Tigress bid goonight to Shido, she left Prosperity Falls, and went back to the Jade Palace to find Shinfu. She went to the statue of Master Oogway to see if Shifu was there, unfortunantly he wasn't so Tigress went to the Sacred Peach tree to see if he was there taking good care of the tree.

When Tigress got to the Sacred Peach tree, she couldn't see Shifu there, so she went to the Hall of Heroes as a final check before she gave up and head off to her room.

When she got to the Hall of Heroes, Tigress spotted Shifu meditating near the Moon Pool.

Once Tigress approached the Moon Pool of the Hall of Heroes, she sat down in a meditation pose next to Shifu and say with a sad expression on her face

"Sprry to interrupt your meditation Master, but I have something really important to report to you."

Shido opens his eyes and just sat there nodding to Tigress for her to continue

"I believe that we have enough evidence to provwe that Shido is Tai Lung," She says with a concern look on her face

"How so, and can you prove this to me?" Shifu asks with a determine look on his face along with a concern but stern tone

"The noodles he made and brought to us from Mr. Ping's noodle shop, well I brought that for dinner on my date with Shido, and when I ate it I knew exactly what kind of noodles were that is mixed in with two juice peaches and two tablespoons of soy auce. But this time with an affitional juiced peach meaning three juiced peaches and two tablespoons of soy sauce, and I remeber the only one I know who would make those kind of noodles was Tai Lung." Tigress says with a sad look on her face

There was a few moments of silence until Shifu decided to break it by saying something with a stern tone but a concern expression was written all over his face

"I agree with you, and now we know that Tai Lung is alive and he is here in the valley, but he hasn't done anything that would cause damage and chaos to the Valley of Peace. Tigress, tomorrow I would like you to go to Mr. Ping's Noodle Shop and tell Tai Lung or he probably would prefer to be known as Shido that I would like to meet him."

Tigress nodded  her head as she stood up and left the Hall of Heroes to get some rest. When she got to her room, she took off her garment and put on her old vest and pants, but before she went to bed, she went to her dresser and open one of the drawers. As Tigress open the drawer, she took out a locket, and when she opened the locket, she saw a picture of her when she was little standing next to a friendly Tai Lung. While looking at the picture, Tigress's eyes started to swell up of tears as memories of the past flash through her mind then a tear started to fall put of her right eye. But Tigress caught it with her left thumb and wiped away as she took a big breath to regain her composure.

When Tigress regain her composure by taking a couple deep breaths, she put thelocket away and went to bed knowing that tomorrow will be something just not spectacular.

(The Next Day)

Shido/Tai Lung woke up knowing that today was going to be the same usual day, but he had a feeling that today was going to be something different, something that had to do with himself due to a dream he had last night. Perhaps it wasn't a dream, maybe it was a vision because in the dream he had, Shido was standing on a cliff, his Odachi in his hand as he was fighting an unknown stranger. The only thing Shido/Tai Lung could see was the color of the stranger's eyes which remind Shido of a certain someone who had the same colored eyes. Shido fought against the unknown stranger for a while, then the stranger did  a kick to Shido's face, making him fall into a rapidly river.
