The wind carries a legend, but his legacy remains

"Master! Master! I bring... I bring bad news!"

"Ah... Shifu, there is only news, neither good nor bad"

"Master, his vision was right! Tai Lung escaped from prison! He's coming back!"

"That's bad news... If you don't believe that the Dragon Warrior can defeat you." Said Master Oogway with a slight smile.

"He's not ready, Tai Lung is stronger, the panda won't be able to defeat him!" Shifu looks strangely uneasy, his head lowered clenching his fists tightly, his claws lightly grazing the palms of his hands. A few drops of blood fall to the ground.

"Ah my friend, the panda will only fulfill his destiny and you yours, when you let go of the illusion of control." Master Oogway walks towards him.

Pacing back and forth, a little confused muttering gibberish, he looks like he's finally come to a conclusion.

"I need your help master!" Shifu lifts his head with his eyes shining with pleading.

"No Shifu, you just need to guide him, you just need to believe... Promise Shifu, Promise me you'll believe"

"I promise master!" Shifu said with renewed conviction, right now his eyes look like a mirror of the sky, the brightness of the stars reflects him.

Shooosh

The leaves of the Sacred Peach Tree of Heavenly Lore flutter in the wind.

"My time has come... You must continue your journey without me." Said Master Oogway handing over his staff.

Walking slowly to the edge of the cliff, peach leaves envelop you.

"Got to believe" Is all the wise turtle says with a smile as he transforms into a soft light.

"Master don't leave me!" Shifu finds himself without strength, kneeling on the ground, his hands are extended towards the sky trying to grab something that no longer belongs to this world.

Thus, Master Oogway vanished with the wind, leaving a legacy, a promise and a destiny for his successor to follow.

As the strings of fate wrap around two figures, one of them was at his bedroom window feeling the breeze and watching peach tree leaves blow in the wind.

"So that time has come, goodbye Master Oogway." Like a stone thrown into a lake, waves of sadness spread through my heart.

Letting my feelings guide me, my body moves in harmony with the world. Moving the body in a slow and fluid way, a faint golden light appears in my hands.

As if it were a dance, but at the same time reminiscent of fighting movements, a Tai Chi Chuan pattern is drawn under my feet.

[Congratulations! You learned a new skill!]

[Chi Control]

Breaking out of my daze, I control my emotions and focus on my new skill.

A faint golden light envelops my body and I feel lighter and stronger. However, I feel my stamina quickly depleting, I suppose I can maintain this state for a maximum of five minutes.

A ridiculously short amount of time, but that could be the difference between life and death in a battle.

Returning to normal, I give a weary sigh.

Knock, knock.

Opening the door I see a figure that I didn't think would find me so soon, It's Shifu, now holding his former master's staff.

"We need to talk, Po." His last word sounds like a whisper. Shifu turns his back and walks slowly, I silently follow.

"Master Oogway is no longer with us, and you are our only hope." Turning slowly towards me, he continues.

"You are talented Po, but not enough to defeat Tai Lung, he is a genius hard to find in a thousand years, his techniques are at the highest level".

"And what do I need to defeat him? If I lack strength, which path should I follow?" I say staring at him.

"Become my disciple! I will teach you, and give you the strength and secret of unlimited power!"

"That parchment? Well, it's not like we have any choice, is it?" Lowering my head and clasping my hands together as a sign of respect, I say in a firm tone.

"Greetings Master Shifu!" No matter my disagreements, Shifu is a great master and he will definitely be able to give me a huge strength boost.

Jumping towards me, Shifu throws a punch trying to hit my chest.

I block his punch with the palm of my hand, punch towards his head.

But in a flash he disappears.

What frightening speed, he's already behind me trying to kick, quickly rolling to the side I feel the ground shake.

Where i was standing there is a small crater. He is standing calmly with his arms crossed.

An invisible pressure surrounds Shifu, so this is a real master. A man who can fight an entire army.

Getting into a fighting stance I prepare to defend, attacking with such a wide disparity in techniques is foolish.

"Very good panda! Our training will start tomorrow!"

Shifu disappears and I feel my vision go dark.

So he could end it instantly...

Hahaha very good Shifu! I will be looking forward to our next battle!
