Ryu is the new kid in the village as being a new kid he learns different things along the way. Tai is going to get to know Ryu better than before. Melissa is going to be in this to. First, let's Ryu start the chapter;

I was amaze to see Tai again. He was with another tiger, a white one. He was talking but I couldn't hear him though. The another tiger was female I could tell by the giggle. She was laughing about something he said. He saw me staring at him and his girlfriend. Whatever, who knows? She's new to me. He told her something and she follow, he said, yo. I replied, hello.

"Who's this, Tai?" I asked

"Me." The female tiger replied and I nod.

"I'm Melissa and you must be Ryu, Tai told me about you." Melissa explained

"Yes, I am." I said respectfully

Tai had to speak, "Later, Mel."

He ran and waved and the white lovely tiger waved back.

"Melissa, can I ask you something?" I asked

"What is it?" she asked sweetly.

"Is Tai your boyfriend?" I asked bluntly

"No, why do you ask?" Melissa said as her cheeks become a rosey red.

"Just wandering." I rubbed my head.

"Ok." She smiled sweetly

(A/N Tai's POV)

I was bored. So I went to Melissa's place to see if she wasn't doing anything. She replied quickly. We walk to Ryu's house so she could met him. I told her that I saved him from these crocs and wolves. I still didn't know why they did it in the first place, though. I told her, several different things about Ryu. I saw him in the front of his house. Nice place, though. I called out and he replied.

"Who's this, Tai?" he asked

"Me." Melissa replied. "I'm Melissa and you must be Ryu, Tai told me about you."

"Yes, I am." Ryu said respectfully

I had to speak, "Later, Mel."

I ran and waved and my friend waved back. I saw Ryu and Melissa talking; I had a feeling that he had it in for her. I was getting sidetrack from what I was thinking. I had something to do today. I had to visit Mr. Ping for Po and tell him about how Ryu's doing. I have to say that goose can talk.
