Chapter 2: Just a simple talk
It was a beautiful night at the Jade Palace, the moon was shining more than those usual nights she was used to shine, a white aura could be seen around her great and perfect cicular form, and she was the only bright thing that could be seen in the sky filled of pure dark.
Inside the palace, more inside...in the wooden barracks, the place where the intense and tiring training happens every day, the place where the best masters in whole China train together and live together, in this place these masters that I'm talking about were eating their last meal of the day, prepairing to sleep and wait for another day... and for the ones that don't get it yes... I'm talking about the Furious Five and the Dragon Warrior.
But something was happening... they weren't sleeping, they already finished their dinner, but they were not in their bedroom, instead, they were talking... laughing... and joking about some things, the non-oficial leader of the Furious Five was sleeping, the talk started to bore her so she went to rest, and that was the opportunity the Five were waiting in such a long time.
-So... Po- Monkey said in a timid... but loud tone, causing everybody to be quiet, they know what he was going to tell him...
-Yes...Monkey?- Po said as his back was slowly leaning to the back of the chair he is sitting on.
-Po...Are you afraid of Tigress?- He asked making a shocked Po appear immediately, but he regained conscience, just in time to create a good answer... -The only thing that I'm scared of her is when she has a bad temper... and when she gets angry at me because of my fault-
-We're not talking about that- Mantis replied causing confusion on the panda -Look... we are asking you if you REALLY are afraid of her-
Po expressed disbelief at his friends -Of couse not... we are friends... we can't harm eachother, unless we're training OR we totally deserve a good punch- His answer didn't convince them a bit, the panda's innocence started to alarm them... Does he know...?
Mantis chuckled in a sarcastic way, but nobody noticed, they were focused in Po -He doesn't know that Tigress...- he mumbled, trying to be silent, but he got the panda's attention -Tigress what?... c'mon guys tell me...- he insisted and finally... after a big silence Viper spoke -Look Po...Tigress...-
-Tigress could kill you- A awfully familliar voice was heard everybody alarmed, because that means he heard everything... They saw him standing next to them, suddenly Monkey tried to explain him what they were talking about wasn't that bad.
-Master Shifu! we we're just...- he was interrupted by Shifu's hand in a sign of stop, indicating he's not bothered about what they talked. Immediately Po cuestioned Shifu's words -But...Tigress...she can't do that... not without a reason...right?-
-Po... Tigress is a tiger right?- Viper asked with a soft voice and Po nodded
-Tigress ancestors... tigers, in the past used to kill animals, like us or like the villagers we're protecting in the Valley of Peace- Crane said
-Why?- Po looked confused at his master -For surviving- The panda is still confused at that response and Crane continued
-Now species are in peace, but her ancestors gave everything she has now: the great strength she always had, the claws, that for some reason she rarely uses, her fangs and even the stripes that identifies her are from her ancestors... and they gave her killer instincts too, that if she never controled them... any of us would be alive now- He finished having a little shiver in his back.
-But... it's about Tigress we're talking- Po complained, Master Shifu agreed -Yes... she is strong enough to control everything inside her, I believe in her mental strenght more than anybody, but I am warning you, don't, and I said it twice don't trigger her instints, once they're out there is nothing in this world that can send them back- saying that Master Shifu returned to his bedroom trying to gain sleep and forget the conversation
-Nothing...can send them back...did something similar happened before?- Po asked himself trying to understand what Shifu said
-Maybe being awake at night is really affecting us- Mantis mumbled, and again, he was heard, but this time he received a grupal -I Agree- and they finally went to their bedrooms to gain at least some rest.
