Chapter 3 – Wu Sisters
Those words rang through her ears. How was Alexis supposed to react. Joyfully? Joyfully so she could keep deceiving her friends. Or should she be angry and reveal her dark past? She didn't want to deceive her friend, but she had to do it for her own survival. If any of them, especially Shifu, would find out about who and what she was, she would be burnt for sure. Burnt like a witch, which she wasn't. She was Tung. She is not a devil worshiper!
Another question came to mind. How on earth did the Wu sisters get captured in the first place? Everyone knew that they were dangerous and merciless. But what she knew specifically was that they were precise and careful too. Who would have been good enough to catch them? Without even asking, Shifu said,
" We caught them right outside the dorm rooms actually. I have no idea why they were there."
"Great, just great. They probably wanted to visit me!" Alexis thought.
"How are you sure? Maybe they wanted to come to us for help?" Once said, Alexis regretted it deeply. Her mother had always said think before you speak. Well, that was her grandmother. Her mother always says think before you kiss. Kika, her sister, never took her advice.
"Tigress, are you defending the Wu sisters?" he said suspiciously.
"NO! No, Master Shifu!" she squealed in desperate attempt to cover her mistake, "I'm just analysing different reasons for them to have come here." Although, Alexis already knew why they probably would have gone outside the dorm rooms – to see her. To see her because today was the day of her father's murder, and the day they all saw the man they once loved for what he really was – a murderer.
"Well I certainly hoped you're not!" he raised his voice out of annoyance and sped past her.
Alexis knew that by defending Xia, Jia and Kika, she had made Master Shifu suspicious. But that wasn't what she was worried about. She was worried about what extents her mother, Isis Tung Goddess of Discord, and other three siblings – Shuan, Bing and Mei Ling would go to, to free Xia, Jia and Kika. She knew what her family can do. That was why she was worried about the lives of her friends...
