Title: Fear
Prompt: Facing Fears
A/N: What do you fear?
Fear is the destroyer of man. Fear creates artificial barriers. Fear locks people in mental prisons.
Master Wu has spent a lifetime conquering fear. He has imparted this knowledge to his students, sometimes unsuccessfully. Fear of failure is not an option.
His latest students show promise. They have gone to the underworld and back, literally and figuratively. They have pushed fear aside and unlocked their true potentials. They have pushed fear aside and helped those who cannot help themselves. They have pushed fear aside and fought in countless battles for what is right and what is just.
When they waver, he reminds them to focus. When they doubt, he puts them into meditation and reinforces mental mindfulness. When they falter, he pushes them to stand back up.
They are on the cusp of conquering fear.
Now Master Wu encounters a new fear: the fear of being superseded - no longer being needed. His students laugh and remind him of all his lessons on fear, and he realizes his fears are foolish.
Fear is the destroyer of man, and he will not let this found family be destroyed by fear.
