The Thread of Hope

The Furious Five ran towards a rope bridge that stretched between a series of mountain peaks above a huge abyss shrouded in mist, called the 'Thread of Hope'. Tai Lung is racing across the other side of the long bridge. Once both sides stop at opposite ends of the last section of bridge, and eye each other. Tai Lung roared along with racing across the bridge towards the Five.

"Cut it!" Tigress ordered.

The others quickly slashed the ropes which secured the bridge to the mountain. Tai Lung almost made it upon them when Tigress cut the final rope. But Tai Lung  lunged at the last second before the rope was cut. Tigress jumped up at Tai Lung executing a flash kick. The two felines ended up in the middle of the bridge just as it starts to tumble into the canyon below. The Five quickly grabbed the support ropes and held on to it for dear life. While Tigress maintains a combative stance and Tai Lung casually leaned on one of the ropes.

"Where's the Dragon Warrior?" Tai Lung asked casually.

"How do you know you're not looking at her?" Tigress tried bluffing Tai Lung to intimidate him but Tai laughed.

"You think I'm a fool? I know you're not the Dragon Warrior. None of you!" Tai Lung said seeing through Tigress's bluff causing her to growl and the rest of the Five looked at each other.

"I heard how he fell out of the sky on a ball of fire... that he's a warrior unlike anything the world has ever seen. Plus I was informed by an acquaintance that you have another warrior. One with great power. A human." Tai Lung stated as he walked towards Tigress along the rope before jumping off towards Tigress who growled and kept her stance up.

"Po?!" Monkey asked while glancing at the rest of the Five.

"Tommy?!" Viper and Tigress called in fear.

"So that is their names... Po and Tommy. Finally, two worthy opponents. Our battle will be legendary!" Tai boasted by raising his fist in the air.

Tigress charged at Tai Lung hoping to stop him before he could reach the valley. Tigress and Tai Lung exchange blows on the bridge as they were being held up by the five who were doing there best not to let go of the ropes. Tai tried to throw Tigress off the bridge but dug her claws into Tai's paw to keep her from falling. Tigress put up a very good fight only for Tai Lung begins getting the upper hand.

"We've got this. Help her!" Monkey told Crane and Viper as they handed their ropes to him and Mantis.

Tai Lung kicked Tigress a few times, before sending her slamming through dozens of boards before stopping. While Tigress was stunned, Tai Lung grabbed the two ropes and twists them. Causing them to close around Tigress's throat and choking her. At that moment, a distracted Tai Lung was caught off guard by Viper who slithered under him and lunged at him. This caused Tai to let go of the ropes resulting in freeing Tigress but causing her to fall towards the gorge below. As Crane dove down and caught Tigress, Viper wrapped herself around Tai Lung's neck and wrist making Tai Lung punch himself. Viper was going to attack again but Tai got a paw around Viper's 'throat'.
