Chapter 1: Wedding Crashers

It was a grey, polar morning at Chorh-Gom prison. The guards were already jittery. They complained about the frigid mountain air all the time, but Xia didn't mind the cold. She embraced it. The cold had been her oldest friend. She loved it, but the guards however, didn't.

"Hey, you know that Dragon Warrior you tried to kill a while back?" a guard barked at her as he walked by her cell.

"Yes, yes the fat panda. What about him?" She said as she glared at him.

"He's getting married! Yep, just got some news that he's set to marry the Master Tigress in a few months. It's supposed to be a pretty big deal."

"What? That bitch is getting married to him? Oh, he isn't getting married to her! Not if I can help it" she whispered to herself. She laughed and grinned an evil grin, and then set to work on her master escape plan.

She then took the homemade dagger from under her bed that she had fashioned out of a chip off the stone wall and screamed,

"Help! Help, someone's attacking me! Help me!"

A guard quickly rushed over to her cell and unlocked the door.

"What's going on here? Are you hurt?" He said as he peered in the dank cell.

The answer came along with a small blade being trust from the dark shadows into his heart.

"I'm not hurt, but I think you are!" Xia cackled as she ran from the room, taking the dagger with her along with the guard's keys. Ever since Tai Lungs defeat, Chorh-Gom Prison had been renovated to accommodate many people, making it one of the most dangerous places in China.

Xia silently swept around the prison, unlocking the doors to all of the prisoners cells. One by one, every prisoner was set free and were now going around mercilessly beating down upon the guards. The riot quickly gained the upper hand, overwhelming the already cold and battered guards. Soon, all of the prison staff were bleeding out on the cold, stone floor. Xia now stood above her new army, smirking at the work that they had accomplished. In all, there were about 100 of the most dangerous bandits, smugglers, and assassins in all of China before her.

"Hello everyone, my name is Xia! You will bow to me, as I will be your new master!" She said; her eyes full of pure bloodlust.

"Why should we listen to you lady?" One of the prisoners asked. He was a large rhino, with a scar across his left eye.

"Because," She said, he anger could clearly be heard in her words as she gritted her teeth. "I set you free! Do this one task for me, and you will all be free to do as you want! Now does anyone have a problem with that?" She said as she held up the dagger, a maniacal gleam shone in her eye, tempting anyone to challenge her. None did.

"Good! We are going to crash a wedding everyone!" She said as she clapped her hands together. "I have some unfinished business to settle…"

Two months later, Valley Of Peace

Tigress woke up early that morning. It was an early start, even for her. She had gotten up so early because today was the most important day of her life. She sat up in her bed and took in the fresh air, then let out a nervous sigh. She had a lot to be nervous about. Today was the day the famous Master Tigress and the Dragon Warrior were to become married. Thousands of people from all over China were pouring in to the valley to watch the momentous occasion.

Just then, Viper burst into her room.

"Tigress, we can't find Po!"

"What?" She asked. This was their wedding day! How could he not be around? "We have to find him." She said sternly as she got up from her bed and started to the door.

"No, no, no." Viper said as she merged in between Tigress and the door. "You and me are staying here to get you ready. The guys will find him"

"Okay" She said. Her heart was now pounding. She had never been as edgy in all her life as she was now. Things were already going wrong on her wedding day, and she had only been up for a few minutes. Po's absence worried her immensely. Her paws were shaking as she picked up her dress. It was a beautiful, white dress with a red silk woven pattern on the back. She then smiled, the worry slowly receding from her heart as she thought about the future.

Today she would finally have a family of her own.

She had always longed for a family, but had never really had one. Her parents abandoned her, the orphanage had feared her, and Shifu had never given her the love she had craved as a cub. Now she had someone who loved her just as much as she loved him. The Dragon Warrior.

Po had brought so many emotions back to her that she had nearly forgotten. Her smile now made more frequent appearances and her laughs now echoed off the walls of the palace on a regular basis. She was even starting to crack a few jokes from time to time. The five had actually gotten quite concerned for her, as they thought she might be going crazy. But her newfound happiness could only be blamed on Po.

Po had done so much for her. He cared for her, and gave her all of his love and attention. He had even taken a knife for her back when Xia had come to the palace. She shuddered at the thought of her own sister almost taking the life of Po in a psychotic rampage. She quickly shifted her mind away from the morbid memory, as today was reserved to be a day of happiness and joy.

Shifu was the next one to enter the room; he was dressed in a black robe and a grin as he stepped in. He took one look at his daughter, and was instantly filled with pride. He could never really tell her how proud he was of her. Especially now, seeing as his daughter had blossomed into a beautiful woman, and was now creating her own family that she could be happy in.

"Tigress, I'm- I'm so happy for you." He said, trying to find the words to convey his pride for her.

"Thank you master- I mean, father." She said, beaming. "Hey, have you seen Po anywhere? I'm afraid that he won't be ready in time."

"Now, now Tigress. Po is very reliable. He'll be ready. I think he mentioned something about going to the gardens for a quick walk.

Tigress let out a sigh of relief. She had thought in the back of her mind that maybe he had been having second thoughts for some reason.

"Okay, well you're ready for your big day!" Viper said as she finished her work on Tigress. Her fur was groomed to perfection, her nails had been painted, and she had put on some perfume, but other than that she didn't really need anything else to look amazing for her big day.

"How do I look?"

"Stunning. You look beautiful." A black and white figure said as he walked up behind Tigress and wrapped his hands around her waist. He was already dressed in a slick, black suit with black khakis with a royal blue stripe down the sides.

"Oh Po, thank you. But where were you? I was so worried that you weren't going to be ready in time… or that you were thinking about calling it off." She said with a frown

"I was just taking a walk, but of course I'm ready kitten. I would never do anything like that to you. And why would I ever want to call the wedding off? I love you so much Ti and I can hardly wait to get married." He said as he buttoned up the back of her dress. "Oh ya and by the way, I got you this." He said as he pulled out a tiger lily from his pocket and put it in her hair. "I picked it fresh from the gardens."

"Po, it's wonderful. Thank you..." She said as she turned around and embraced him tightly, tears falling freely from her face now. "I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life with anyone else." She whispered.

"I wouldn't either Ti." Po whispered back. Viper was still in the room, and quickly broke off the tender moment.

"Hey come on Po, you're not supposed to see the bride before the wedding! It's bad luck you know!"

If only Viper knew how right she was.

"Ya, ya, I'm going. See you there kitten. I love you." he said as he gave Tigress a quick peck on the cheek and left the room.

"I love you to Po." She said as she smiled at her reflection in the mirror. For once, she felt good about herself. Just the way Po had complimented her had made her feel like the prettiest girl in the world.

An hour and a half later…

The palace arena was packed with people, all who had come to see this once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. It was rare that any two kung fu masters ever got married, but it was even a rarer occasion when the Dragon Warrior got married.

Usually, the Dragon Warrior would have to give up their title if they tied the knot because their spouse would be in too much danger because everyone would want to try and kill the Dragon Warriors wife. But, seeing as the bride was Tigress, who was clearly capable of defending herself, Po would be able to keep his title.

Po was at the altar already, sweating bullets. He saw the mass of people watching him; a slew of eyes that were all fixed on him. His nervousness was getting to him, and he was worried that he would somehow make an embarrassment of himself like he always did.

Come on Po, don't screw this up. He thought to himself.

The crowd were all cheering at the top of their lungs now. They certainly weren't helping Po calm his nerves, as the noise only filled him with more panic and stress.

But all of that panic dissipated in a matter of seconds, as the two large wooden doors at the opposite end of the grounds opened, revealing a beautiful tiger along with a small red panda beside her. Her silky fur rippled in the small breeze as she began her walk to the altar. Her beautiful white dress shimmered in the summer sun as she gracefully made her way to Po. Tigress was beaming like she never had before, and she was on the verge of tears. Everyone's jaw dropped at the sight of the beautiful feline before them. She still had the lily in her hair that Po had given her, and it seemed to add a pursuance of charm to her already striking appearance. Tigress and Shifu finally made it up to the altar, and as Shifu came up with his daughter he cast a quick glare at Po, making sure that the panda got his wordless threat.

Don't break my daughter's heart, or I'll break you.

Po nodded at Shifu, accepting the terms of marrying his one and only child. Tigress turned and faced Po now as she stepped up to the altar, the tears now flowing freely like untamed rivers down her cheeks. She was smiling, showing every one of her brilliant, white razor-sharp teeth. Po took both of her hands in his as an elderly goat conducted the ceremony.

Po tuned out of the goats speech about life, and happiness. He already knew what life and happiness were. He was too busy looking into Tigress' fiery irises .

"And Po, do you take Tigress to be your wife?" The goat asked, snapping Po out of his daze as soon as those words were uttered.

"I do" He said dryly, yet confidently as he retrained his gaze on his soon-to-be wife. The goat then proceeded to ask Tigress the same question.

"And Tigress, do you take Po to be your husband?"

She sniffed, and smiled.

"I do."

"Then I now pronounce you husband and wife. Dragon Warrior, you may kiss your bride."

Po slowly leaned in, and connected lips with his new wife. Tigress produced a small, gentle purr as she embraced her panda, forgetting about the multitudes of people around her and just enjoying this special moment.

The crowd erupted in applause. Confetti was thrown from the stands and fireworks were set off. After the kiss, Tigress smiled but then quickly jumped back into Po's arms and kissed him again, her purring was now almost as loud as the crowd's screams. Everything was going great, until…

KABOOM!

A loud roar came from the front gates, followed by the gates to the arena being flung wide open. And what came rushing through the gates were all of the foes that the Furious Five had locked up in prison over the years. Shifu then turned and shouted at Po,

"Dragon Warrior, they're after the both of you! Run panda, we'll try and hold them off!"

Po quickly grabbed Tigress' paw, and started running back up the stairs towards the palace. They made it all the way up to the hall of warriors, and hid behind one of the displays.

"Po, what are we going to do!" Tigress whispered. "They have us cornered!"

"I don't know kitten, but I promise I'll protect you." Po said.

Soon, all of the bandits were rushing into the hall. One screamed,

"Find them! They must be in here somewhere."

"Po, I'm scared."

"Shhh, everything's gonna be okay."

"Hey Po?"

"What?"

"I love you."

"I love you too." Po said as he held onto his wife tightly.

Just then, a wolf came around the corner and spotted them instantly.

"I found 'em!" He said as he charged the two. Po and Tigress both rushed the wolf, easily taking him down. But soon, many more bandits rushed them, and Po and Tigress couldn't fend them off any longer. Po ran over to Tigress, and grabbed on to her and held on to her as tightly as he could. Now, the bulk of the army were on top of them. They ripped Tigress from Po's arms.

"Po!" She screamed as she kicked and punched at the bandits, but they were still able to restrain her.

"Tigress!" Po shouted back. He was also trying to break free from the mob that was blitzing him, but then he felt something hard clash with his head, and his vision went black…
