Arranged Marriages

Chapter 4: Tigra's Plan...

Me: Welcome Readers! Terribly sorry for that short chapter yesterday... Anywho, I'm listening to Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat! Just Thought I'd put it out there!

Tigress: Okay, done with love song, let's get back to the chapter.

Po: Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Yes I own Kung Fu Panda :) *Police come in and tell me to NOT steal their show or else. Since I'm only a child I sigh and defeat and say* Fine, I DON'T own Kung Fu Panda. But, not today, or tomorrow... But someday! MWAHAHAHA!


Normal POV After Tigra finished her "little" story, Shifu remembered that Tigra told them that she had a plan.

"Tigra, you told us that you had a plan to stop us from getting married. Am I correct?" asked Viper, eagerly hoping she would say yes.

Tigra giggled while saying, "Why, yes Master Viper. I am sure you guys are very eager to find out about my plan, correct?"

"Yep!" hollard Po. Tigra giggled at the panda's happy state. Although a bit shocked that he wasn't upset (that much) that the only two female fighters in the Jade Palace might have to quit Kung Fu forever.

"Hmm... You seem a bit happy today. Considering the only female fighters you have might end up quitting Kung Fu forever." Tigra said. Though it sounded as if she didn't trust him -which she did-, she was testing his personality and if he could be the right 'actor'.

"Well, I'm not exactly happy, but I have trust in you that you could actually help us out with the marriage things. But hey, at least we'll try and stop it. And, if we fail, I'm not saying we will, at least we tried, right?" Po said while smiling a bit.

Impressed, Tigra said "You don't even know me, yet you still trust me?"

Po began to realize that she was right. He didn't know her at all, except for the fact that she's Tigress' sister. Yet, he trusted her for some reason. He didn't ponder the question much and said "It's ok. We already trust you. Not just me, but everyone else. Plus, we'd like the extra help."

Tigra was a bit amused that this panda easily trusted her that quick. As if... he knew she wouldn't hurt anyone. Was that panda easy too fool? Would he blow their cover? If she makes him be *ahem* a part of her 'plan', will he be able to act and 'lie' to people? Was he even able to lie to anyone? Especially her-!

"Tigra? Is something wrong?" asked Tigress. That quickly got Tigra out of her trance.

"Huh? Oh, yes, I am fine. Thank you." she stated quickly.

"So... Not to rush you or anything but.. what's the plan?" asked Crane. Everyone then turned to Tigra.

"Huh? Oh, t-the plan. of course. I was thinking maybe Tigress and Viper can ALREADY be married or engaged... Or at least in love. If they were, then they can't do anything about it. So, I suggest you pick someone to be your husband yourself, or, I could do it myself. What do you guys think?" Tigra said.

Everyone was shocked that Tigress and Viper had to pick a guy to be their fake fiance or husband. No one said anything for they might get beaten to a pulp by both masters.

"Okay then. Since you guys aren't choosing, I guess I'll have to choose for you. Hmm... Po?" Tigra said

When Tigra said his name he immediatly froze. 'Who will I be with? Will it be Tigress? Will I be able to survive by the time we even get to the village? WHY ME?' Was all he could think of before Tigra said something.

"Po, you will be Tigress' fiance. Understood?" Everyone was shocked that Tigra choose Po as her fiance. Although shocked, Mantis, Monkey, Crane, and Viper couldn't help but laugh. No one could control their laugh that is, until Tigress gave them all glares as sharp as daggers.

Tigra only chuckled and said "Ok, umm.. Crane, you will be Viper's fiance. Understood?"

He nodded slowly while a blush ran past his face but he tilted his hat a bit and no one noticed. Well, Tigra noticed and giggled. "Okay people! Let's get this show on the road! Tomorrow, we will take our leave. So, I suggest we all sleep early. But, the day is still bright, we all should train." She stated coldly, which surprised everybody for her voice was once a nice, kind princess'... But now, it sounded like Tigress only harsher if possible.

Everyone then left the kitchen and went into the training hall. Before any one could do anything, rain started to pour outside.

"I didn't know it was suppose to rain today." said the confused Dragon Warrior.

"Nobody partically did, Mr. Po." said Tigra, before she started to walk in the middle of the arena. Little did she realize it, she was singing.

"Bury All Your Secrets in My Skin...

Come Away With Innocence and Leave Me With My Sins..

The Air Around Me Still Feels Like A Cage.

And Love Is Just A Camouflage, For What Resembles Rage Again."

Everyone was stunned. Her voice was so mesmerising. Yet, her emotions were let out by he song. It was... spine-tingling. But sort of in a good way.

"So if you love me let me go...

And Run Away Before I Know.

My Heart Is Just Too Dark To Care...

I Can't Destroy What Isn't There.

Deliver Me Into My Fate..

If I'm Alone I Cannot Hate."

Those lyrics hit Tigress with realization. She felt the same thing at Bao Gu Orphanage. Through her sad lonesome childhood, she would always somehow hurt some other child. The memories of Bao Gu sent chills on her spine. She shuddered away the painful memories and began to listening to her sister's singing.

"I Don't Deserve To Have You..

Ooh, My Smile Was Taken Long Ago,

If I Can Change I Hope I Never Know."

By then, Tigra was already at the center of the training area. Tigra then started to punch mid-air. Although, it could have looked like she was actually fighting an opponent. Then, Tigra kicked, blocked, did a summer-sault back to the other end of the training area and grabbed out a sword nobody knew she had. The sword she held was silver and white. The handle had red dragons flying around it and the sword's end looked like the edge of a lion's tooth.

"I Still Press Your Letters To My Lips...

And Cherish Them In Parts Of Me That Savor Every Kiss.

I Couldn't Face A Life Without Your Light.

But All Of That Was Ripped Apart When You Refused To Fight.

So Save Your Breath, I Will Not Care...

I Think I Made It Very Clear.

You Couldn't Hate Enough, To Love...

Is That Supposed To Be Enough?"

Tigra was slashing her swords from different directions, as it looked like blurs of silver and white, with a few slashes and dashes of red. It seemed as if she was dancing a graceful yet dangerous dance. By now, the opponent would already be dead with hundreds of wounds and cuts. Bleeding out every part of it's body. As she continued to tear up piece by piece of the opponent, she also continued to sing...

"I Only Wish You Weren't My Friend...

Then I Could Hurt You In The End...

I Never Claimed To Be A Saint.

Ooh, My Own Was Banished Long Ago,

It Took The Death Of Hope To Let You Go."

Then, thunder rolled in. It made the song much more mesmirizing... It gave all of the warriors a chill on their spine. It was a little bit of a haunting feeling.. A little bit of depression, sadness, but a lot of emotion. They were all wondering "Why is she singing?" As they continued to listen, the thunder bursts with the pouring rain. As if the rain itself were her teardrops, and the thunder, her anger. As she stopped singing for a while, she kept on dodging, kicking, punching, and slicing, while making little "swoosh" sounds.

"So Break Yourself Against My Stones...

And Spit Your Pity In My Soul..

You Never Needed Any Help

You Sold Me Out To Save Yourself.

And I Won't Listen To Your Shame!

You Ran Away You're All The Same,

Angels Lie To Keep Control,

Ooh, My Love Was Punished Long Ago

If You Still Care Don't Ever Let Me Know

If You Still Care Don't Ever Let Me Know..!"

Everyone was astonished by the song and emotion that Tigra's voice held. Though, they did want to know why she was singing...

"Why were you singing Ms. Tigra?" aske the curious snake.

"Well Ms. Viper, I sang because it helps me train a bit better." She replied.

They all went "oooh." Everyone then started to train. This time, Tigra didn't sing. She was flustered that her own father herd her sing. 'How embarassing can this day get!' she asked to herself. Although, she was happy that everyone liked her singing. Even Shifu. Then, they heard a soft little hum. Everyone checked to see that the source came from Tigress. Everyone eyed her suspiciously, before she realized that she was indeed humming. Though she tried to hide the blush on her face, Tigress kept on training. That only led to everyone laughing or giggling, which made Tigress even more flustered.

"S-Sorry... I don't know why I'm humming. I guess it got stuck in my head a bit." Tigress said.

This only made the chuckles and giggles grow faster and stronger like a disease. That only made her blush even more that it could be seen through her fur. Though, only a little bit.

"Don't worry. It sorta got stuck in my head too. I-it sounded a bit... cute also. " said Po, blushing a little.

After a few hours of trainging, they all went into the kithcen. All except Tigress, Po, Viper, and Crane. They all just stood there. Sometimes glancing at eachother and blushing a couple of times. They stayed like that for a few minutes before Tigra hollard, "Are you four lovevbirds just going to stand there? Come on! We're waiting for all of you!"

"HEY! WE ARE NOT LOVEBIRDS!" They all screamed blushing madly. Tigra only rolled her eyes and said "Well, you guys better stop staring at each other and get over here!"

They all went to the kitchen blushing. When they came, Mantis said "Whoa! You guys' faces are as red as a tomato!" and started laughing at their expressions. Monkey then joined in the fun, while the others ignored them.

After dinner, they all went in their bed room chamber and had peaceful dreams. Before sleeping, they all had three things in their minds, 'Will this plan works?' and 'What will happen if it doesn't?' and 'Will we even SURVIVE the trip/journey before arriving the Valley?' And slept peacefully.


Me: Haha! Hope you guys liked this one! Sorry if this one is shorter than shapter 2... I tried to make it longer but I just couldn't think of anything else... Terribly Sorry!

Tigress: Well, before I decide whether or not I injure her, tell her what you think. Plus, tell me if I SHOULD *ahem* murder *ahem* her.

Me: Meep... Mommy... SAVE ME!

Viper: Tigress! Calm down!

Me: *Hides behind Viper* Help...

Po: Well folks, you decide whether Tigress gets to "injure her" or not AND if Ann (meh nickname) to continue writing chapters!

Me: Enjoy and STAY TUNED!
