Two nights had passed since Sun Wukong was sealed under the weight of the huge mountains, and Po had to leave the underworld to join the ranks of the Army of Heaven. It was a warm summer afternoon. The sun shone splendidly on the panorama, and although many were still saddened by the loss of their teacher and friend. But, a little soul made the hearts of those residing inside the Jade Palace shine.

Little Lixue played happily with the teachers and students ignoring everything, after all, she was still too young to understand what had happened. And although sometimes she asked where "uncle Po was, those who accompanied her were limited to telling her that he had embarked on a very long journey.

With a leather ball, the little tigress with white fur and black stripes played an impromptu game with masters Monkey and Crane, and with the new Furious Fives. Jian, Lain, and even the huge Bian Zao and Jing Mei played like they were just another child. They were also accompanied by Peng, the impulsive snow leopard, who sometimes forgot that it was child's play and took things too seriously. Still, everyone was having a good time.

However, a little apart from the group was Víper, still hurt by the departure of her lover. The snake looked at the horizon over that rocky formation where the peach tree grew, under which Po liked so much. There, Viper could feel a little relieved and remember some good memories from the past.

Viper was meditating in silence, when the teacher Tigress approached to see how her friend was.

Tigress: - It's a wonderful sight. Don't you think? - She said with her gaze lost on the horizon.

Viper: - Yes. It is. - She said with a tearful tone.

Tigress: - Po will live forever in our hearts. As a teacher, as a friend, as a brother... as... a partner. -

Viper was a little glad for her friend's words. Tigress wasn't very emotional, and she had some difficulty dealing with these things, but at least Viper knew that she was doing the best she could for her. And that made her very happy.

Viper: - My memories with him will be the most beautiful thing I will have in my life... and of course... his legacy. -

The snake said with a sad smile on its face, while caressing her belly with her tail. Tigress happily saw her friend and invited her to return to the others. So that she could have a few moments of happiness before dinner time.

Viper and Tigress went down the rock stairs, and barely reaching the first step, little Lixue jumped into her mother's arms with a huge smile on her face.

Tigress: - Did you have fun? -

Lixue: - Yes, mom. I had a lot of fun. -

Viper and Tigress gracefully watched as the little girl overflowed with joy while the adults remained sitting and exhausted. The little tigress had endless energy, one that the adults couldn't keep up with.

Lixue: - Mom. I'm hungry. When do we eat? -

Tigress: - Lixue. Remember those manners. We must wait -

Viper: - In a few minutes. - Viper interrupted Tigress with joy. - I'm going to prepare the "secret ingredient soup" -

Lixue: - Yes! - She shouted enthusiastically. - I love Uncle Po's soup. -

The two teachers looked with joy at the little girl. Then a strong breeze suddenly began to shake the trees. The branches of the peach began to shake vigorously, and a strange light began to radiate over the rock formation. For a few seconds, the whitish light blinded those present strongly, but when they turned around, they couldn't believe their eyes. And a voice, devoid of sadness, shouted loudly.

Lixue: - Uncle Po! -

----O----

Very well. The true end. XD
