Outside the Jade Palace, Shifu, Viper, Mantis, Tigress and Daiyu were doing their morning chores. Sweeping. The front was quite filthy and some leaves were scattered all over the place, so they decided with some company, the cleaning wouldn't be as bored

Daiyu could feel someone hurrying up the stairs in a hurry and that person turned out to be Po

"Hey, Po! Where did-"

But Po ran past her and disappeared. Daiyu blinked in confusion as her friends were just as confused

"What the heck was that about?" Monkey asked as Shifu shook his head

"I don't know, but it's nothing unusual, I suppose"

Forgetting what happened, they went back to sweeping and chatting, until Monkey and Crane came back, along with a guest as Monkey shouted

"Hey, everybody! Look who we found!"

Tigress looked up to see

"Peng!"

"Hey, buddy!" Mantis greeted as Shifu approached him

"Welcome back, young master"

Peng bowed politely to Shifu as he then said

"Master Shifu, I've returned to find the Dragon Warrior"

"Hmm, he rushed in a moment ago. Po?" Shifu called as he and Peng walked inside and Daiyu called out

"He's over there!" But no one really paid any attention to it while Monkey and Crane turn to their friends

"Guess what we found out"

Peng and Shifu walked up to Zeng, in the Hall of Warriors, where he was cleaning an armor with a rag

"Zeng, have you seen Po?"

"Uh, n-no, Master Shifu! He's probably off doing something bodaciously awesome as is his custom" Zeng nervously chuckled, unusually nervous for no apparent reason, but then another Zeng came

"Master Shifu! Have you seen the shift stones? One of them is missing"

The two Zengs looked at each other with big eyes and then slowly turned to look at Shifu, who raised his eyebrow

"A shift stone?"

The Zeng from before tried to escape, but Shifu quickly stopped him while he kept squirming in his grip

"We've seem to have found it" Shifu said as he took away the shift stone and a bright light appeared and "Zeng" revealed himself to be Po actually

"Told you" Daiyu smirked as she eyed her friends, who scowled at her

"Peng! Buddy... I was just, uh, I thought I... I mean, buddy!" Po laughed awkwardly as Peng blinked confused at him, but still bowed to him

"Dragon Warrior, I was hoping to have a word with you. Perhaps we could take a walk?" Peng suggested as Po nodded quickly

"Uh, sure. What do you say, Shifu? Feel like stretchin' those furry little legs?" Po asked, trying to get someone else to come with him so he wouldn't be on his own, but Peng replied

"Actually, I was hoping to speak with you alone"

"Okay" Po replied as he grinned nervously and could feel his paws sweating. Following Peng, they left the Jade Palace. Then Daiyu spoke up

"I know something's wrong, but I don't know what exactly it is that's wrong"

"Well, we know" Crane said as Viper urged him
