the kungfu boy
It was the year of the dragon in the town of Lei-Kung. The land was fertile and the weather was good. The people of the town were prosperous and happy. The young boy named No had grown up with his father, the legendary Kuntao, a renowned kungfu fighter. Kuntao was the best in the town, but he had an enemy, the ruler of Lei-Kung, who wanted to take his place as the most powerful man in town. His name was Li-Yen, an accomplished kungfu fighter with all the cunningness of a fox. He had always been jealous of Kuntao's reputation, his skills, and his success.

No did not understand this enmity between his father and Li-Yen. As he grew older, he became more and more fascinated by his father's Kungfu. He began to practice under Kuntao's supervision, and he was a quick learner. No became Kuntao's right-hand man, his most trusted and loyal assistant. They fought together on many occasions, and No came to admire his father's fighting prowess.

No also became very close to a girl named Mei-Yun. She was the daughter of Li-Yen, the enemy of his father. Mei-Yun was a beautiful and kind-hearted girl, who loved and respected Kuntao. She would often accompany him and No on his training sessions. No had never felt the way he did about her, but he couldn't explain why.

One day Kuntao was out training when he was ambushed by Li-Yen's men. He fought them fiercely, but he was outnumbered. He was being beaten down, and he knew he couldn't defeat all of them. No watched in horror as his father fought with all his might, but he was losing. No felt a sudden surge of energy, and he charged at the enemies. He fought with all his might, deflecting their attacks, and striking back with his own.

His charge caught Li-Yen's attention. He saw the young boy fighting with all his might, and he smiled. It was in that moment that No made a decision. He knew his father needed his help. He charged at Li-Yen, striking him with all his might. Li-Yen was thrown back and fell to the ground.

No had won. Kuntao was victorious. He stumbled over to No, holding him tightly. He whispered to him, "You are my perfect son. I am proud of you. You saved my life." No looked up at him, tears in his eyes.

Mei-Yun noticed the tears in his eyes and asked him what was wrong. No told her everything that had happened. Mei-Yun listened intently, and her eyes widened in shock.

Mei-Yun sat down with Kuntao and No, and she told them her story. She told them about her father and how he had been an enemy of Kuntao's. She told them about how she had always admired Kuntao's skills and how she had always felt that he was her hero.

Kuntao listened to her story with a soft smile on his face. He nodded his head. "I see. I understand."

Mei-Yun looked up at No, and her eyes widened. She looked at him, and she smiled. "I can't believe it. You and my father's enemy's daughter."

No smiled back at her, his heart racing. He knew he had fallen in love with her. He knew he couldn't explain it, but he felt a connection between them.

Kuntao looked at them both, a twinkle in his eyes. He knew what was coming. "Well, well. Looks like the rumor was true."

Mei-Yun giggled, and No felt a lump in his throat. He looked back at his father and smiled. "I know I can fight like you, Father. I am proud to be your son."

Kuntao smiled at him, and No felt a wave of emotion wash over him. He knew his father was proud of him, and he was lucky to have such a great father.

In the end, Kuntao never spoke of the incident again, but Mei-Yun stayed by his side, and No knew he was going to be a great fighter one day. He knew that he would face many challenges, but he was ready for them. He and Mei-Yun were meant to be, and nothing could change that.
