AN: Okay, okay, I know I haven't wrote in a while or updated any story, but I didn't had internet for two weeks and I was too lazy to pay for it on a cyber café, sorry guys, but I assure you, I am not done with this, I will also repay you all doing more chapter way more soon, and so, let's start with the guess reviews!
Chris: Thank you! And no, I haven't finished as you can see!
Guest that gave me a cool suggestion: I know! Sorry about that, I am trying to make them all sound more casual, and the reason I don't use contractions that much is because of my laziness to write apostrophes, I have started to change that just now.
If anyone has an idea they can tell me on the reviews or something I could get better at!
"Could you please tell me why do I look more mature on the figurine you are making? And… Why do you make these?"
The gentle voice of Tigress crossed the silence in the room, Po just resigned to answer her questions
"You look more mature because… That's how you describe yourself in the stories that you tell me, and honestly, I have been fantasizing a lot, that maybe there is a possibility to me making all of that awesome stuff and accompanying the five, I make this so I can remember each of you, and not be… alone"
This last words coming from Po's mouth made her frown with sadness, thinking that she has already seen him thinking in this way of himself, when he wanted to run away before facing Tai Lung and got in front of a really angry Shifu, she sighed deeply, and Po got her actions wrong.
"D-Don't get me wrong! I was doing this thing since before you talked to me, I don't feel alone in your company"
She smiled in amusement at his nervous reaction
"I didn't think that, don't worry"
I want to help him
To stop thinking in that way of himself
But the only thing that helped him were the events of Tai Lung
She decided to stop thinking that and focus on the present, as she would later meditate and try to find answers, either that, or getting mad at herself and venting on the ironwood trees for not finding any of the answers.
A smile crossed her face and put the scrolls she had carried on the table, again, those were dream journals, each selected so he could only read the necessary and not get affected so early by Shen or his biological father.
Po picked a scroll and then sat on the floor, ready to read, and Tigress did the same, normally she would lend the scrolls to him and then if he had questions, he could ask freely.
He was taking interest in the scroll that he was reading, but he gave Tigress a side-glare, just to observe her a bit, and soon noticed that there was a quantity of more black around her eyes and indicating that she had eye bags, he was worried about her, he knew approximately how tough the life of a kung fu student can be.
"Have you been tired lately?"
"No, I am fine" learning little by little to manage lies and facial expressions, she wasn't as good as her future counterpart, but she could manage the average, saying that she wasn't tired was a big lie, as she was getting more and more exhausted each day she visited him.
Po just shrugged it off and started reading again, after some minutes of clarification of the things Po hadn't understood, not because he was bad interpreting but rather that Tigress was still a beginner writing more detailed anecdotes.
Soon they ended all the scrolls she had brought, and she decided to break the small silence
"The reason that you have been staring at me lately, is for taking the stripes and details on the figure?"
"Yeah, if that's okay with you"
"It is, but honestly, I'm a bit honored for the way you are dedicated on making this figure, I think I can help you at it, if you want"
"Really? Thanks!"
She soon found herself directed at the nearest source of light in Po's bedroom and he told her to sit, she obeyed and he sat again on the floor, making quick sketches on scrolls of her stripes, to guide and be as exact as he could, it wasn't hard, as he 5 minutes later told her that he had finished.
"That was fast"
"It is just a guide for me, not a really detailed drawing, by the way, thank you"
"It was nothing" she yawned when finishing her sentence
"Aww man, the time goes by so fast, I think you should go to the Jade Palace and go to sleep next to your very awesome comrades"
Tigress giggled slightly by his comment and how he practically worshipped the kung fu in a fanboyish way in the selection of his words.
"You are right, good night Po"
"Good night Tigress"
She was at the border of the window, then waved slightly and disappeared into the darkness of the night.
The tiger arrived at the palace and instantly fell asleep as soon as she arrived to her bed, the next day the gong made the characteristic sound as soon as the sun rays touched the hill next to the Jade Palace, and each student crossed the door, as well as Tigress, they were greeted by their master and ran to the kitchen for a short meal, all of the boys, in a bet of who would make it faster to there, leaved behind the two girls, Viper saw this as an opportunity again and to question her a bit more, just for the sake of her security.
"So, you had fun last night?"
"Yes"
She was given a short answer, because her mind was somewhere else, but Viper didn't snapped her back from her trance, because this meant that her answers would be true.
"Which part of the valley did you went sister?"
"South"
"Do you manage to get unrecognized by the villagers?"
"Yes… Wait, hold on... Viper, please don't try to get info from me like that"
Tigress had come back to reality, much to Viper's dismay.
"Sorry sister, but it was worth a try"
The tiger sighed and went back to her routine, training and giving all she could, meditating one hour after the physical exercise.
Finishing early, just as the sun was about to set, she waited a bit until the darkness could cover her, she grabbed one scroll, as she decided that today maybe she would slow down until more visions happened and he was ready for big confessions, when it was early night, she jumped from roof to roof, not hearing a soft ruffle behind her, and just about Tigress was waiting one roof in front of Po's dad restaurant, she could have sworn she had a heart attack.
A soft, feminine voice brushed the wind.
"So this is where you are coming?
AN: CLIFFHANGER HAHA! It is the first time I have done one of these, and I hope it is good, see you all in the next chapter or other story, whatever that happens first.
