The Black Mamba

{Kung Fu Panda TBM} We're Like Family

Viper POV

It was a Sunday, wich meant no training. Well...except for Tigress. The belly rung and we all got up from our beds greeting each other. I noticed that Toxin did not exit his room so i slithered over to his door and knocked gently.

Viper: Toxin ? You awake ?

There was no answer given to me, he is probably still asleep, i will let him continue his rest and joined my friends towards the kitchen.

Toxin POV

Typhon: wake up you fool !

I was met with a punch to the face wich woke me up. My body was clearly bruised and had small cuts everywhere. I could barley see out of my right eye so that means i got a black eye...great...my nose was bleeding like crazy and my coughs were a bad sign.

Typhon: here's your breakfast !

He showed me a rotten piece of flesh. I backed my head up cause of the disgusting smell.

Typhon: awww, is the snake tired ? Thats why you need to eat !

He grabbed my jaw and forcefully shoved the rotten flesh down my throat making me swallow it. I felt like i was gonna throw up and coughed wich made Typhon smirk.

Typhon: i hope you enjoy your new lifestyle.

That was the last thing he said before walking away.

Typhon: give our fellow Toxin, his morning beat down !

There came snakes, lizards, frogs and birds, ready to beat me up to a pulp. And i could do nothing about it...

Viper POV

We have eaten our food and made our way towards the training hall. Toxin has not joined us at dinner for some reason.

Viper: hey guys, have you seen Toxin ?

Mantis: aww, does the great Master Viper miss her lover ?

I slapped Mantis on the back of the head.

Mantis: ow !

Viper: you asked for it !

Po: i haven't seen him since yesterday.

Tigress: he's probably still asleep.

Viper: alright, i will go wake him up.

Mantis: lets hope thats the only thing you will be doing !

He laughed at his own joke and i ignored him making my way towards Toxins room. I knocked again on his door.

Viper: hey Toxin ? It's morning you have to get up !

I again received no answer so i opened the door. I was confused on seeing that it was empty. I slithered inside and looked around, and the only thing that looked off was his bed. The blanket was not folded and when i approached it smelled a little disgusting and familiar. It's what we smell everyday at training. Sweat. This feels odd... where could Toxin be ? What made him leave in such a hurry ?

I pushed my questions aside and decided to report this to the others.

Toxin POV

My head was put inside a barrel filled with water. This was a famous torturing method, but the reason is probably just to make me suffer. My head was pulled up and i immediately gasped for air.

Lizard: ha ha ! Not so tough now !

My head was again put inside the barrel.
