CHAPTER ONE‘BOOM!’

In a small house in China, there was a shout.

‘Help! The wolves are taking my things!’

It was the same in the other houses. There

were wolves everywhere.

Suddenly, Po and the Furious Five were there.

‘You’re not going to win this time!’ said Po.

He started to fight the wolves.

‘Po! Quick!’ shouted Tigress.

A wolf jumped at Po and Po fell. Then the

wolves ran away.

‘Why did you stop fighting?’ asked Tigress.

‘I don’t know,’ said Po.

Suddenly, Po looked into the wolves’ eyes. He

remembered something from a long time ago.

He was a baby. He saw wolves and a terrible red

eye. He shouted to his mum, but she ran away.
