The Valley of Peace. A place far removed from the hustle and bustle of the world beyond. A place where conflicts are rare, and those that do arise are swiftly ended by the six valiant Masters of Kung Fu who defend the Valley. The Five Legendary Masters known collectively as the Furious Five, and the Heroic Dragon Warrior. However, outside the Valley, dark clouds of war and malice have begun gathering, threatening to consume the whole of the world. In order to save their beloved home, the Masters must forge new bonds, as well as accept the most unlikely of aid...

Thread of Hope-Outside the Valley of Peace
"Are you absolutely certain that we're going the right way? We seem to have been hiking for ages, and I feel as if we have made no progress whatsoever."
A white peacock complained, as a large, grey-furred wolf nodded in agreement, tongue drooping out of his mouth as they walked. Ahead of the pair, a muscular snow leopard sighed, turning around with a small smirk.
"No, of course I don't know my way back to my own home, even though I found my way back after being locked up for years."
The leopard responded, rolling his eyes as he shook his head.
"Now, are you two done whining yet, so that we can get to the Jade Palace? Or would you rather I carry you, 'Lord' Shen?"
He said mockingly, as the Peacock irately ruffled his feathers and huffed, straightening his robes.
"Now, now. There's no need to be so rude, Tai Lung. After all, some of us are carrying more than others. And besides. I am still trying to figure out some way that they will listen to us, rather than have us thrown into Chorh-Gom the instant we set foot in the palace."
He said, as the wolf next to him nodded and looked at yet another of the bridges.
"Ugh...More bridges. Great."
The wolf sighed, propping himself up on his warhammer...

Valley of Peace-Marketplace.
A tall cheetah wove his way through the crowds in the market, skillfully dodging around the pedestrians as he made his way along the streets, stopping and taking a look at the various booths and stalls as he did. Finally stopping at one, he purchased a small bundle of bean buns, and, once he had paid for them and left, looked up towards the Jade Palace. Smiling to himself, he took a bun from the bundle they had been wrapped in, and, taking a bite of it, smiled to himself.
"The Jade Palace. Home of the legendary Dragon Warrior, and the Furious Five... How exciting."
He murmured to himself, and then, with a chuckle, looked back the bun in his hand.
"These are really, really good, too. What a spectacular day this is turning out to be..."
He said, once again making his way towards the Palace...
