Kung Fu Oz

Chapter 8: Camping In The Dark Forest

Later, we see Mei Ting and the others in the Dark Forest filled with bats with hellish-like eyes and dark grey wolves howling near the moon light.

"This forest is starting to give me the creeps", said Mei Ting, "It's so dark and spooky out here."

"I don't know about you, but I think it'll get darker before it gets lighter", said Po.

"Do you think we'll meet any wild animals, Tin Man?", asked Mei Ting.

"We might", said Tin Man.

"Animals that eat... straw?", asked Scarecrow.

"Well, some, but mostly lions, tigers, and bears", said Tin Man.

"Lions?", asked Mei Ting.

"Tigers?", asked Po.

"Bears?", asked Scarecrow.

"That's right", said Tin Man.

"I suggest we find a place to camp for the night", said Po, "It's gonna be late soon and we have to rest for tomorrow."

"Over there", said Mei Ting and points to a dark cave about five meters away from the four. Later, as Tin Man and Scarecrow sleep, Po and Mei Ting watched the remains of the burning log turn to black crisp.

"So, Mei Ting", said Po, "There must be something else you to tell me why you're running away. You know, aside from nobody understanding you."

"You... you wouldn't understand if I told you", said Mei Ting, "But looks like I have no choice. The reason why I'm running away is because... my aunt and uncle didn't understand about my problems at home. Even the one where Miss Ying trying to have Toto destroyed. That's why I'm running away. Do you understand what it feels like to have someone not taking care of the problem that I caused? I tried to handle it, but she didn't accept my apology."

"Oh, I see", said Po, "I didn't know that. I guess you shouldn't seen that one coming. My problems were even worse than yours."

"Really?", asked Mei Ting.

"I started having these visions of my parents five years ago and it started to haunt me", said Po, "but when I learned a kung fu technique, I used it to flow with these visions with my emotions and I solved my problem. Maybe... you should do the same thing with your aunt and uncle and they'll help you solve your whole thing with this Miss Ying."

"Really? You think I should that?", asked Mei Ting.

"Trust me, you will someday", said Po and Mei Ting smiles at Po before she hugs him.

"Um, Po", said Mei Ting, "I want to thank you for what you said to me back at Juitsu City."

"Oh, it was nothing, really", said Po and starts to stare at the black panther's beautiful eyes.

"You're drooling on me again?", asked Mei Ting.

"Kind of", said Po and carried Mei Ting in his arms before they kissed each other. They cuddled each other lovingly and Po rubs her shoulders before they went into a deep sleep. Tin Man and Scarecrow, after waking up to see the two kissing each other before they went to sleep, smiled at each other.

"Ah, love", said Tin Man, "So romantic."

"Tell me about it", said Scarecrow before we fade to black.


My apologies for making this chapter short. I wanted to kill some time for the appearance for the Lion in the next chapter to be made very soon. Enjoy! :)
