Blood, so much blood. He tried his best to stop the bleeding but it was too late. He was on his knees and held her paw as she laid flat on her back. Tears were streaming down his face.
Tigress opened her eyes and looked up at him, she lightly scoffed and gave a small smile "I...always...hated...seeing you...cry...I'm so...sorry...po.." Her eyelids felt heavy and she struggled to stay awake. Po tightened his hold "No don't apologize, your going to make it tigress...everything is going to be fine." "Po...stop...lying to...yourself...we both...know...I'm...going to...die..." She lightly squeezed his paw before her eyes slowly closed and he felt her arm go limp "No! No! Tigress wake up! Don't go I need you! Please! Don't die!"
"Don't die!..." Po awoke with a yell as he sat up, the covers slid down his belly as he did so. He panted and put a paw to his chest as he tried to catch his breath. He looked to his left and saw that tigress was still sound asleep. After last nights events he had convinced her to sleep in his room. He looked over her body, tracing ever injury with his eyes before reaching out and lightly running his paw over them, he stopped once he reached her wrist and took ahold of her now bandaged paw.
Tigress felt someone touching her and slowly opened her eyes. It took a moment for everything to clear up but when it did she saw po holding her injured paw. Feeling shame as well as guilt overcome her, she sat up, snatched her paw and started backing away from him.
Po moved and gently grabbed her arm, he brought her closer to him until the 2 were sitting in front of each other face to face. He held both her paws as he reassured her.
"What's wrong?" He whispered as he looked into her orange eyes.
"Nothing really..." She looked down.
"Oh? Then what is it?" She remained silent and po decided to continue.
"Is it because of your injuries? Are you ashamed of them?" Tigress was shocked that he figured it out, but then again he wasn't her best friend for nothing.
She sighed "It's just that...these injuries are going to heal into scars, and those scars along with the ones I already have are not going to be proof of heroism, their going to be proof of my weakness and lack of self control..." She refused to look at him.
Po gently squeezed her paws "Theres nothing to be ashamed of tigress, if these scars are going to be proof of anything, their going to be proof of your survival, you fought a war inside your head and your still alive. Your strong, you survived and these scars are your battle scars." He smiled at her.
He definitely had a way with words.
She smile back at him "I'm only strong because of you. Thank you Po...for everything." They hugged and fell asleep, wrapped in each others arms.
