[Kung Fu Panda] So This Is a Snow Leopard

*

When he first saw me, even my master, who had guarded Peace Valley for years and seen much of the world, wondered whether some strange creature had contaminated the land of Shenzhou without his knowledge.

Otherwise, why would Master Oogway bring a hairless monkey back to the Jade Palace?

I, the one mistaken for a monkey, was just as confused.

It took me a while to accept that I'd come to this strange world after dying. Although I would rather have gone down the mountain to sell sweet cakes and fend for myself, I stayed at the Jade Palace and became the little red panda master's first disciple in name. Later, I even helped my master pick up a child.

"Master, is that a leopard?" I asked, looking at the sleeping cub.

"That's a snow leopard, A Chun."
