Chap. 10- I Believe In You
Po told the others about what was going on. They weren't that happy either. Viper was shocked at the lengths that Muang would go just to separate the two, she could have thought of that...wait. What?; Crane was plain disturbed. Why you ask? At her obsession with him once he became Dragon Warrior.; Monkey seemed to have taken it quite well, though he could have done without the threat that was made by 'her highness' and Mantis, well…let's just say that for the tiny critter, he can throw quite a tantrum. After this open and frank discussion, they all dispersed into their separate rooms, not knowing what to think...only asking, why?
Tigress sat in the corner of her room. Her head and arms resting on her knees. She faced the wall. She remembered everything now. Her childhood, Shifu, Mr. Ping, she remembered everything….except Po. You'd think after everything that has happened, she would remember him? Sorry to say, she still hadn't a clue of who the guy was. All she knew was who she met now. She still doesn't know the Po from back then, and seeing how well they get along, it cuts her deeply...
Her room was full of paralyzing silence. She was emotionless now. She was now left alone with only the reflection of her own memories. Questions flushed her mind, and scenes of the fight between her and Po popped into her head. She-
A note slipped into her room. She looked at it. She studied it, observing the folded sides and detail of the writing that was stained on the paper. Po wrote it, no doubt. She crawled toward the note and reached for it. She hesitated before grabbing it, but then reached for it anyway. She opened it and read to herself. She was surprised to see that it was written Nu Shu.A language long-lost centuries ago, and a few years ago gone along with the last 2 women who used it. Luckily for her, Shifu had hired an outside tutor to help her with the coded writing. She picked it up easily. After all, nu shu does not consist of many characters. It's probably 600 or more…she didn't remember. What she wanted to know was how Po knew abou-. Oh yeah, news travels quickly down south. Besides, most nu shu is based on men's writing.
"Choice by choice,
Moment by moment,
I build the necklace of my day,
Stringing together the choices that form
Artful living." (Julia Cameron)
And with each day passing by,
I realize that I don't want to lose you.
Please, talk to me.
-Po
She was surprised he even got the style of the letter writing correctly. And that each character was written perfectly. She didn't know what to think. Only that some nu shu came from men's writing and that it was more of an italicized and narrowed form of men's writing. She sighed. Involuntary, she took a pen and wrote a response.
Alright, nice choice of words.
I believe in you.
Just promise that you won't forget all we had.
Promise?
-Tigress
She folded up the piece of paper and opened her door slowly. No one was in the hallway; she quickly slipped the paper into his room and crawled back to her room shutting the door. In all that rushing she forgot to ask him how he had learned how to write it. It doesn't matter, she'll figure it out soon enough. She heard the paper opening and a small gasp, then writing. Soon, a piece of folded paper slipped under her door again. She opened it and read.
I Promise you with all my heart.
After all, there's no place like us.
You'll be in my heart forever.
Good night, Tigress.
-Po
Tigress smiled and wrote the last note for tonight.
Good night, Po.
-Tigress
She repeated what she did to put the note in his room and then crawled back into hers'. She smiled as she got into bed and fell asleep, waiting for what the day of tomorrow will bring.
