A/N, Hello fans of Kung Fu Panda, I am back to bring you another of my fanfictions, Bringing Back My Enemy, this is after seeing kung fu panda 2, I really wanted to put this down and see what I would come up with. I can only hope you will enjoy this as much as I've enjoyed writing it. If You haven't seen the film already I must warn you know there will be spoilers so be prepared for that but most of all I only ask for you to review and tell me your thoughts on what was good, what needs work and any ideas you yourself may have because I am open to them. Finally now I shall sit back and allow you to join in on the adventure I've thrown myself into.

A deep breath was summoned, as one injured warrior clutched his side where the blade stuck inside. The boss wolf clenched his eye shut and groaned in pain, so much had gone wrong that day, all around him he could hear cries of his brothers as each blow was struck from the warrior that faced them. He would remember these howls for the rest of his life.

Shen had thought he'd died from the single knife thrown to his gut, the wolf had other plans. Immediately falling to the ground and lying motionless, the peacock soon walked past and allowed the injured wolf to breath. The blasts had finally stopped, he'd felt when the ship had been struck, dragging himself to the supportable corner of the ship to hide from falling debris. He could hear footsteps walking along, many footsteps following.

The Furious five and the Dragon Warrior.

Po looked around, his sights were sought on the one he'd battled in this escapade since the first day at the musician's village. THe panda's eyes caught sight of the wolf donning the metallic symbol on his shoulder plate, it was him, and he didn't look good.

The wolf played dead, he knew he was outnumbered, and with a critical injury as he'd sustained, there was no getting out of this without the mercy of the universe on him. He could hear their footsteps coming closer,

They'd found him.

Did they know he was alive. A female tiger approached and laid a paw upon his neck, feeling for a pulse.

"He's got a pulse, what do you want to do?" The wolf opened his eye enough to see the panda stare down at him and focus for a moment.

"Tigress, Master Shifu, I want him and all of his injured and uninjured clan to be brought back with us to the Jade Palace."

The wolf could hear several gasps, "What? Why do you want us to do that?" The panda looked back down at the wolf,

"I'll explain later, right now just help me okay."

With that, the wolf suddenly felt himself being picked up and carried, the handler being careful of the wound, the boss wolf felt himself slipping in and out of consciousness. As he drifted off, his last site was of himself on the panda's shoulder and his teammates carried shortly behind. He couldn't imagine what was in store for him and his troops, one thing he could already see was this.

They had been defeated.

"This is a bad idea Po."

"What, come on guys a little faith here."

"Urgh, my tail still hurts from dragging those three."

"Heh they look so different when they're asleep, like they're not actually going to kill you when they wake up."

"Hey I made sure the restraints were checked on, it's fine, hey look he's waking up!"

The wolf felt slightly dizzy as he slowly came to, his single eye opening and closing, once he'd gotten focused though, it was a different story.

"NNAUUGHH!" He roared, struggling against the restraints that bound his feet and paws to the bed, three large straps held him tightly to the bed. Instinctively he lashed out toward all the members of the jade palace with his bite, Po stepped in a held up a commanding paw.

"STOP! STOP THIS!" After he noticed this getting him no further out of the bed, the wolf resentfully calmed down, still growling fer-ally and showing his teeth. Po brought his paw down as the wolf growled. "Why have you brought me here! Our defeat wasn't enough, you have to bring us back to your own personal torture chamber?" He snarled, the five looked at each other with a confused expression, Shifu made himself known, "You are currently being held at the Jade Palace while we decide the best thing to be done with you." The wolf snarled and snapped at him, earning a stern look from the panda. "Hey! Be happy we at least brought you back alive, when we found you, Mantis barely had any time to heal your side there during the transport." The wolf glared and then looked down at himself. He was out of his normal armor and now dressed in a white robe, several bandages could be felt along his fur, this only added to the wild dog's frustration. "GRRR WHO undressed me! Where is my armor?" The serpent slithered forward, "That would be me, hey you should thank me, you were getting far beyond any regular smell ever conceived. We had to take off your armor because it was in the way of the stitching." The wolf maintained his glare while posing another question.

"Where are my brothers?" The wolf's bed was rotated around to the window where he could see inside. His eye caught at least thirty of his men, all strapped to beds and being aided, all seemed unconscious. It was almost a pleasant sight for the old wolf,

"Did any wake up yet?" He asked calmly as if the very sight of the wolf brethren was aiding his nerves. The panda shook his head, The wolf sighed and closed his eye as his head hung. "I need to be there when they do, unless I can keep them in order you'll have them all attempting to eat through their paws to get out of here. Several members of the five inwardly flinched at the visual. The wolf then focused on the red panda, "So what exactly do you plan to put my clan through? I know why I'm here, I led them into this, but you shouldn't have taken them as well, they're not what you think."

Shifu leaned in, "Oh and what's that?" The canine groaned as sat up,

"They're not all evil, we're just soldiers taking orders, they shouldn't be held for what they've done." It was Master Shifu's turn to glare at the wolf. "You clan is responsible for aiding in the murder of Master Rhino and almost the same for the Dragon Warrior. How are we supposed to see you as anything but evil?" His question had silenced the wolf who stared him down before blowing out a breath through his nose, looking over back to his brothers. Several of the faces his recognized as his close friends, a silent moment of relief swept through him. His army had grown throughout the years but within it he'd managed to keep several of the group he'd known since they were cubs. It would be easier now, at least knowing he had a few he could trust to listen to him. Loyalty was always the first code of the wild canines, if you were to join, it meant you had you're teammate's back in every situation, that you would never give up on any of the clan, they were all equal in their eyes, it made them a stronger force because of it.

Monkey noticed one of the restrained beginning to stir, looking over at Po he pointed to the window.

"If you really believe this will help then we'll undo your restraints but understand any funny business and we have no qualms with knocking you back out, understood?" The wolf sneered at the panda but rolled his eye and nodded. Viper and Crane came forward and undid his straps. They took the wolf's paws and eased him out of the bed. The commander, once on his feet felt weak and unsupported by his feet. Swaying slightly, he then quickly leaned over and vomited. several vile juices and even a few small bones dropped from the wolf's mouth.

"EWW! Come on!" Mantis groaned while turning away. The wolf smirked, "Heh you try living on only improperly cooked rice and under fed sheep." He said with a small grin. Shifu looked at Po and shook his head. Zheng the house goose opened the door to the room, gulping in fear as the wolf passed by him escorted by Crane and Viper.

Once inside, the ragged commander looked into the sleeping faces of his comrades. Each of them wore something he'd not seen since they'd been taken on by lord Shen.

Peace.

All the time they'd worked for the insane peacock, the wolves had all suffered tremendously as they worked day and night to fufill the desires of their master, seeing them all finally getting rest eased the single eyed wolf's mind.

The wolf cleared his throat and then barked loudly, summoning all the ears in the room, an obvious command call for attention. Quickly the group came to, Tigress looked around the room, seeing most wearing the face of surprise and even fear from their situation, once they'd all focused on the wolf in white however, they began asking questions at once.

"Sir what happened?"

"What's going on?"

"Where are we?"

The wolf held up a paw to silence them. All fell quiet under his gaze, the wolf maintained a strong pose as he looked into the eyes of all his comrades.

"Brothers, calm yourselves, this is the reality. We...lost. The plushy panda over there took us prisoner in the Valley of Peace." This sentence sent a loud gasp of shock through the crowd of bed ridden wolves, many turned to each other frantically howling out while some sat silently glaring at the furious five and the dragon warrior. In order not to cause a frenzy of fear Shifu decided step forth to ease the nerves of the prisoners.

"You are all to be held in the valley until I, the Dragon Warrior and the five decide your fate. For now you are to remain here, the house staff shall be attending to any and all wounds you may have received."

The wolf directed the attention back at himself, "Listen, I want you to know however this turns, you all have done you're best and from this point there is nothing to be fearful of, as long as we are together, we will find a way out of this. Don't hurt yourselves trying to escape. I am still responsible for you." The wolf could feel his chest tighten as he said this, the reality of the entire scenario was building right before him. He turned back and motioned for the snake and bird to take him back to his bed. Several cries and curses could be heard as the Furious Five and Dragon warrior left the room. The commander refused to look at any of the masters in his presence, without even acknowledging them re restraining his limbs, the wolf stared expressionless at his feet, Po motioned for all of the group to leave the wolf be for now, they had to discuss the current options for the prisoners they held. After he knew the last of them had left, the wolf felt something building up inside him. He'd been brought down by the national symbol of China's hope, and for what? A power hungry bird who'd kill him and his clan as soon as he refused to harm them himself.

He felt that he'd not only let himself down, but he'd brought the brothers he'd come to know down with him. They hadn't deserved this, he'd led them into following that sinful peacock, and look where it had brought them.

This was all his fault.

The five, master Shifu and the dragon warrior congregated in the hall of warriors to discuss the options for their current problem. Shifu felt that the wolves would be best suited at one of the outside realm's prisons, Tigress and Monkey agreed, leaving Crane and Po, Mantis and Viper to bring up alternative solutions. It wasn't until Po's idea came up that everyone stopped dead in their conversation.

"Why can't we have them fulfill their sentence here?" The panda took in the wide eyed expressions of all the members of the jade palace. Crane leaned in, "Um Po I don't know if you caught this already but these are WOLVES! They're known for causing only trouble and wrecking anything that comes into their path." Tigress nodded, "Agreed, Po why on earth would you wish to keep them in or valley?" Po maintained a serious expression as he spoke his mind.

"Listen, you heard it from their boss himself, the majority of them are just soldiers, they're loyal to no one but that guy. He doesn't want them imprisoned any more then I do. Every royal city generally is known for having plenty of back up and support in numbers whether it's those who can kick butt or just help in the village, why can't we have that same thing. He said that these guys are mean yes, but they aren't evil."

Shifu looked over at the panda with a concerned look on his face. "Po the thought you toy with is one of extreme danger, you would be putting the entire village at risk of attack, not to mention who is to say they will remain with us in the event of another power hungry maniac?" The panda looked at his master, taking in the concerns and weighing them each individually. Everything he said was true, they would be putting a great deal of trust into their enemy and if anything were to happen, it would fall upon the furious five and himself for taking such a risk.

The panda sighed and looked at some of the relics of the past sitting in the room. His eyes falling upon the Sword of Heroes, they were a group looked up to by so many, and the panda felt he had much to learn from his foe, if only they could work out some sort of agreement, this could be a chance for the Valley of Peace to lead by example, to show it would not turn it's back upon those who were in need. Looking into Tigress's eyes and then back at the entire group, the panda made a decision. "Master Shifu, this is a rare chance we've got to bring true justice to Master Rhino and all who've fallen at the hands of these bandits. Master Oogway would want peace before revenge, all of us know that, if we are going to actually make a difference then instead of caging them and leaving them to sit and dwell on escape, why can't we teach them? All they want is to be given direction and if any of us can do that then that's what I wish to do." Shifu stared at the dragon warrior carefully, his mind working out a thousand things at once, would it work? Was Po on to something? At what cost though?

"Po, I want you to understand that you're idea is insane." The panda's face drooped to a frown, just as he was about to defend himself, the red panda cut him off, "And as crazy and dangerous as this plan is, I will let you attempt this, but know this. Anyone to come to harm from this will fall upon you Panda, are you ready to take that risk?" Po's eyes widened, did his master actually just give him a chance? Without words, the panda slowly nodded, hoping this was not all just a crazy dream.

Shifu " *Sigh, I will have to call together a village announcement, Po you must be there to put the villagers minds at ease, this will be no simple task, are you ready?"

"I'm ready Master Shifu, and thank you." He said with a bow or respect. The red panda looked at him with a worried expression, it would take a long time before anyone besides the Dragon Warrior could feel comfortable with this.

The five departed from the room, Po with Master Shifu as they headed back to the medical ward of the palace where several rabbits found themselves with a bit of a challenge as they attempted to take the wolf's temperature, (orally of course) For a moment the small red panda had to almost stifle a laugh watching the feared leader of the wolf clan fight so stubbornly against the rabbit holding the thermometer.

"Oh for crying out loud, stop struggling, Jeez they're only taking your temperature!" Po said in a whining voice. The wolf's eye looked as though it could burn holes through solid steel as it stared down the rabbit who quivered at the menacing gaze before slowly offering up the thermometer to the wolf's muzzle. Reluctantly the canine growled and opened his jaws just enough for them to slip the mercury device in. Drumming his fingers impatiently the boss wolf waited silently as the rabbit counted the time it took for the reading to be accurate. Finally taking the device out of the angry dog's mouth, the rabbit looked at it an shook it once. The canine spat to the side, "YETCH! What are you up to now Panda? URGH that tasted like crap!" Po leaned over to Shifu, Uh that WAS the mouth one right?" This tiny joke earned the straps testing as the wolf suddenly fiercely fought to get t the panda. "HEY Calm yourself I was just kidding! Besides, you are going to wanna hear this." The restrained one tilted his head as he mocked them. "Oh what is the delightful news you over sized punching bag? Will we get three actual meals a day in the hell you're dropping us in?" Po looked at the wolf sternly, this was going to be a real challenge.

"Well actually yes, we've come to a decision and the fact is, you shall have the final say in what happens." He said, this confused the bandit leader, why was he getting any say in this punishment?

"What is it, out with it then!"

"You and your clan have two choices, one, you may spend your time in the prisons far from here, working countless hours with little food and little living space." The wolf narrowed his eye at the two warriors facing him.

"Or?"

It was Shifu's turn to speak, "Or you can agree to spend the rest of your lives in servitude...here, in the Valley of Peace." This made the wolf's eye widen dramatically, "Why on earth would you have us here? Doing what exactly anyway?" He asked with a growl in his throat as a sign not to be deceived. Po cleared his throat and came to the wolf's side he could see him on. "You would pledge you and the rest of your clan servitude to the Valley of Peace, namely the Jade Palace. You would work full time, fix the city in it's weakened spots and aid the valley in any way shape and form." This made the wolf raise his eyebrow and stare at the short red panda.

"Even battle intruders?"

"WE HAVEN'T discussed that yet..."The wolf sat back, puzzled at first, the shock of the situation given to them seemed beyond agreeable.

"So...I and my group could be kept safe and well fed?" The two pandas nodded, the wolf questioned on daringly, "And beds to sleep on, we would be allowed those?" though the red panda began muttering under his breath at this request, they both nodded. The wolf also did as he spoke to himself for a moment. This was a golden opportunity for him and his troops, in exchange for some easy labor, they were allowed homes in the valley of peace, a place known to many as a well guarded city, by six renowned warriors.

The wolf looked up, met the gaze of the two before him and nodded. Po began to ask an obvious question, "So which did you-"

"Oh for pit's sake panda I'll stay here!. Finally some rest for us all." Shifu coughed, "Oh don't let yourself be fooled." And with that the two left the wolf lying in his bed, under the restraints, alone save for the three guards posted inside the room. As he felt his head sit comfortably on the pillow, the grey furred wolf sat in silence for a sec, his tongue quickly licked his chops and closed his lips.

What had just happened?

They'd been running all they're lives,

once from one place called home then with a crazed peacock, what was in store for them now?

Had they really lucked out this well?

Was this going to really happen?

All these thoughts that ran through his mind made the wolf soon quite tired. He was not a failure after all, he'd somehow pulled together a whole room and board out of fighting a group of warriors. The war ravaged canine turned his head on the side of the pillow and then shut his eye, allowing the sleep to wash over him.

The dragon warrior and his mentor walked down the hallway of the palace, both stopping at the large viewpoint of the village below. Shifu came up to the window's sill and rested his paws. "Look down below you Po, this valley rests it's very survival in your hands. Here you have businesses that thrive, neighbors that look out for one another, and a family here that can bring to you all you desire." Po looked out onto the village, glowing in it's many lanterns illuminating every edge of the community. He watched the night activity in brief silence before he could feel Shifu turn to him.

"I know what I'm doing Master."

"I hope so Dragon Warrior, I truly do."

A/N, Hey there so here is my first chapter of the newest of my Kung Fu Panda entries, I am excited about this due to the film's portrayal of the wolves and that it gave me enough leeway into giving these characters a second chance. Will there be problems with this new plan formed by the Dragon Warrior? Of course, will there be ways to fix them, we shall see, I will take more or less possibly a week or so at a time to get these chapters out so I ask for you're patience if you may in order for this story to go properly and also in order for me to be able to sort out my work schedule. I thank you all for reading this and giving this story a chance! See you in the next chapter!
