Chapter Two: A Girl Worth Fighting For- OST Mulan
"So Po how was your date with Song?" Monkey asked as Po went in. Monkey, Crane, and Mantis were all in the kitchen eating some dumplings.
"It wasn't a date." Po said as he reached for Monkey's dumplings.
"Hey get your own dumpling." Monkey then whined.
"Song seems to be taken with you." Crane then said as they continue eating.
"Nah." Po then denied. "She's a friend that's all and we just ate at the noodle shop as she was saying thanks."
"Wow I wouldn't mind dating Song. She is beautiful." Mantis then quipped.

For a long time we've been marching off to battle
In our thundering herd we feel a lot like cattle
Like the pounding beat our aching feet aren't easy to ignore
Hey, think of instead
A girl worth fighting for
Huh?
That's what I said
A girl worth fighting for
xxxxxxxxx
"I was just thinking we always go on our different battles you know bandits, kidnappers, Evil Warlords and among others, wouldn't it be nice to have someone to go home to? A girl worth fighting for."
Everyone turned to look at Crane then silence followed as they ponder on what he said. It will definitely be nice to have someone they love to come home to.
"I guess you are right." Mantis then said.
"You have a dream girl then?" Po then asked.
xxxxxxxxx
I want her paler than the moon with eyes that shine like stars
My girl will marvel at my strength, adore my battle scars
xxxxxxxxx
"Well, I kinda like a girl who has a skin silkier than silk and eyes that would adore me no matter how many wounds I have." Mantis then said dreamily.
xxxxxxxxx
I couldn't care less what she'll wear or what she looks like
It all depends on what she cooks like
Beef, pork, chicken
Mmm
xxxxxxxxx
"That's nice, man." Monkey then said. "But my girl would be one who can cook all my favorite food and knows how to make almond cookies."
"Man your cheeks will be more stuffed that it is now." Po said as they all laughed.
xxxxxxxxx
Bet the local girls thought you were quite the charmer
And I'll bet the ladies love a man in armor
You can guess what we have missed the most
Since we went off to war
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for
xxxxxxxxx
As the laughter died down, Monkey then spoke. "How about you, Po? Almost everyone in the village adores you even Mrs Yoon."
"Yeah you know being the Dragon Warrior, you attract girls with your position." Crane quipped. "Girls are attracted to men who defends them."
"Well you know that I can't have any relationships. I am the Dragon Warrior." He sighed sadly.
"Come on, Po. You know that Master Shifu just don't want you to get married that's why he said that when you were about to marry Lu-Shi."
"What?" Po was surprised.
"Remember Po when he lied to you about Challenge Day?" Mantis then spoke. "Same deal. So you can get your stupidity out."
Po laughed. "Oh so he lied. And I can get a girlfriend?"
"Come on, Po. He himself has Mei Ling. If it wasn't allowed, why did he date her?" Crane then followed.
"That is AWESOME!" Po then screamed.
"You got a girl in mind then buddy?" Mantis asked.
Po went quiet and just chewed on his dumplings to prevent himself from talking. Crane instead spoke "Come on Po."
xxxxxxxxx
My girl will think I have no faults
That I'm a major find
How 'bout a girl who's got a brain
Who always speaks her mind?
xxxxxxxxx
"You know…" Po sighed. "Yeah I do like a girl. She's fierce and brave." His eyes sparkled as he talks about his crush. "She's very pretty and intelligent. She is really hardcore."
"We'll just call her Tigress then." Monkey then said.
"Oh no! No, no, no, NO." Po was too quick to deny but his friends just look at him not believing. "Fine it is Tigress. But you know her. She thinks I'm just a clumsy Panda." His voice sounded sad.
"You got that right." Mantis then said. Monkey and Crane looked disappointed at him. "What? I call as I see. Besides Tigress is… how do you say it?"
"Too hardcore!" Both Crane and Monkey replied.
"Yeah but she's so beautiful and strong. She always knows what to do and…"
"Bosses you around." Mantis cut Po off. "Sounds like you're the type who want girls who can beat you up."
"Well… She's just the girl who captured me." Po then said as he stuffed dumplings into his mouth again.
"Nervous eating." Mantis then quipped.
xxxxxxxxx
My manly ways and turn of phrase are sure to thrill her
He thinks he's such a lady killer
xxxxxxxxx
"Po, you are the Dragon Warrior. Look at how Song and Lu Shi crawl for you. You even have fans." Monkey tried to console his friend. "You are such a lady killer. I think Tigress might like you too, you know. I think she likes guys who are strong."
"Thanks, Monkey." Po said still sad not believing Monkey.
xxxxxxxxx
I've a girl back home who's unlike any other
Yet the only girl who'd love him is his mother
xxxxxxxxx
Crane then broke the silence speaking of his love. "See when I was still in a martial arts school I fell in love with a girl named Mei Ling. She was beautiful and kind-hearted. Doesn't hurt that she's a great martial artist too." He said dreamily.
"Yeah I bet the only one who loved him is his mother." Mantis then whispered to both Po and Monkey making them both laugh.
"I heard that." Crane then said.
"That girl of yours has the same name as Shifu's girlfriend." Po commented. "Are they the same?"
"Nope. My Mei Ling is a Golden Cat. She is just wonderful. She's very kind and she's the one who encouraged me to do Kung Fu." Crane then explained dreamily.
xxxxxxxxx
But when we come home in victory they'll line up at the door
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for
Wish that I had
A girl worth fighting for
xxxxxxxxx
"I just hope that I can find that girl for me." Monkey then said.
"Yeah. It'll be nice to come home to someone after a long day of fighting and training." Mantis followed.
"If only I can tell Mei Ling I like her then maybe there'll be a chance for us." It was Crane.
"Tigress may not love me back but I'll always fight for her no matter what." Po then said.
"We know, Po. We know." Monkey then ended the conversation as they continued to eat.
