Kung Fu Panda: Crane x Snow Leopard OC

S1: The Kung Fu Kid.

Tigress, Mantis, Monkey and Daiyu were doing breathing exercises in the training hall and after they finished, they drank from their water jugs and got to talking.

"Today's the Peace Jubilee, who's gonna be wearing the Olive Branch Crown?" Monkey asked, Mantis shook his head, clearly not knowing himself.

"The Peace Jubilee?" Daiyu asked, Mantis nodded.

"Yeah, you don't know..." Mantis trialed off, sensing that Daiyu couldn't grasp the concept of it and then asked.

"You never celebrated anything in the Valley of Void, did you?"

Daiyu shook her head.

"Other than New Year and the Winter Festival, we didn't had many celebrations or holidays that had anything to do with peace or joy."

Everyone stared at her.

"Wow. You really did live a sad life." Monkey blurred out, Tigress elbowed him.

"It doesn't matter. It is a special occasion and one of us will have to attend the unification ceremony." Tigress replied as she sat on the steps whilst clearly listening to Po and Shifu's conversation outside in the training yard, discussing the events that the Peace Jubilee would bring them.

"Anyway, one of us will be wearing the Olive Branch Crown." Monkey grinned, really liking the idea of wearing one.

They eventually exited the training hall as Tigress instantly strolled over to Po and Shifu after hearing enough context from them on the other side.

"Wait, Po's wearing the Olive Branch Crown? Po? Traditionally, one of the Furious Five does the unification ceremony."

"C'mon, Tigress. The jubilee needs some new blood. Y'know, a fresh face, the new guy, show that the Jade Palace is looking toward the future. Plus, I get to wear the crown!" Po squealed happily. 

Tigress had a look of confusion, before she then smirked.

"Po's right."

Monkey, Mantis and Daiyu were just as confused as Po was at that moment.

"I am?"

"Am I missing something?" Mantis asked, Tigress shook her head.

"No, because it also means he'll have to judge the children's kung fu matches."

She and Daiyu walked off as Monkey patted Po on the shoulder in an almost pitiful manner.

"Right."

"All you, buddy." Mantis cackled as he and Monkey left Po even more confused and followed the other two warriors in a hurry.

"Uh, thanks?"

Glancing back at Po for a second, Daiyu then turned back to look at Tigress and whispered.

"I suppose it's something not to be that joyful about. I mean, you make it sound like a punishment."

Tigress shrugged as she answered.

"It's more like the most awfully embarrassing thing that there is. Children want to show off their kung fu skills, but sometimes it's hard to be really honest with those innocent children and not give them false hope."

Daiyu grinned as she shook her head and entered the training hall with the others, where Crane and Viper were already doing warming-ups.

"Well, it's like I always say, "I'd rather hang out with a brutally honest prick than a fake sweet boot-licker". Very simple."

While the others remained quiet, Monkey laughed at Daiyu's quote as he wiped away an imaginary tear from his eye.

"So, you want us to be brutally honest with those kids? Is that what you're putting down?" Mantis asked. Daiyu shrugged her shoulders as Monkey managed to catch his breath and said.
