Dear Diary,
Today, we were caught off guard. A band of crocodile bandits attacked. I took most of the heat during the battle. Bingwen and Naomi fought too, but they're still training. We held them off, but Bingwen was badly scratched. I got the bleeding to stop and put some salve on it and covered it with a bandage. He should be ok as long as he doesn't do any thing stupid and goes easy on the training for a few days.
He is insisting traveling though. I suggested on us resting for a while until he is healed but he wanted to get to a town where there will be supplies. I like him when he is being smart. That sounded pretty mushy didn't it. He is more of a brother to me than anything. I guess I did sort of start to developed a small, teeny, tiny crush on him. Anyway, we found out that the bandits were heading in the same direction we were. The Valley of Peace. So I ripped a page out of you, my silent companion, and wrote an anonymous letter to the Jade Palace about the bandits heading their way. I signed it as Tiggy. That was Master Fang's nickname for me.
I gave the letter to a goose form the palace. He was returning from Chor Gom prison. That is where Tai lung is. I remember being a small cub when he was thrown in jail We ran into him too. Anyway, the goose said that he would deliver my letter. I gave him 50 yuan for his troubles. I hope that the Dragon Warrior will defeat him. We ran into the snow leopard a month back. We were in he mountains not too far form the prison. He didn't hurt us, Thank the Lord, but he did say be careful. He said it warmly, but I didn't miss the veiled threat hidden under that tone of his or in his yellow eyes. I can sense that his heart is black as the night. I told Naomi to stick to me or Bingwen the whole time during the encounter. I don't trust one hair on that cat's pelt. We should be going. I want to get to Changchun by tomorrow. I think my heart is beginning to thaw. I owe that to my sweet, Naomi and my faithful companion, Bingwen.
