Turning Red

Chapter 14: Bigger Panda Problems

"MEI-MEI!!!"

Mei gasped and everyone in the stadium turned to see two giant red eyes peering into the SkyDome.

Two giant paws separated the roof of the SkyDome and a giant panda head poked through.

"MEI-MEI! WHERE ARE YOU?!?!"

Mei's eyes widened with shock. "Mom?!"

Ming's eyes widened when she spotted her son. "MEI-MEI!!!"

Mei yelped and started running away, his friends following after him.

Ming departed the dome ceiling more and everyone started running away as well. Ming climbed over the walls and jumped into the SkyDome.

"Mei-Mei!"

Mei's family ran up to them and Mei hugged his father.

"Dad?"

"We have to save your mother!" Mei's grandma said.

"She's gone loco!"

"Mei! We have to do the ritual again!" Jin said.

"What happened? She's huge!" Mei gestured to his mother.

"I told you she was big!" Jin shrugged.

"That big?" Mei asked incredulously.

"MEI-MEI!" Ming's giant paw came down and scooped Mei into the air, as his family and friends yelled at Ming to put him back.

"YOU ARE IN BIG TROUBLE YOUNG MAN!"

Ming scolded, waving her finger at him.

"Mom! Let go!"

"I'M SHUTTING THIS DOWN RIGHT NOW!"

Ming reached over and grabbed a giant 4-Town sign, and ripped it off the wall.

"EVERYONE GO HOME! WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS?! PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!"

She dropped the sign to the ground and it shattered.

"THIS ISN'T YOU!" Ming told Mei.

"This is me!" Mei screamed. He shifted into his panda and bit Ming's hand.

Ming roared in pain and threw Mei out of her hand. Mei screamed as he fell but managed to poof back into himself which softened his fall.

"Mei-Mei!"

"Mei! Are you hurt?"

Mei didn't listen to them and shifted back into his panda.

"I'm not your little Mei-Mei anymore! I lied mom!"

"WHAT?!"

"It was my idea to hustle the panda. My idea to go to Tyler's party. It was all me! I like girls! I like (Y/n)! I like loud music! I like gyrating! I'm 13! Deal with it!" He shouted at his mother.
