Chapter eleven: Bandits!
It didn't took long for the Furious Five and the Dragon Warrior to reach the village, but when they arrived they were in the midst of disaster, the bandits were looting metal, gold, wood, food, fabrics... in other words...everything in view of the terrified inhabitants, who were helpless and defenseless.
The Furious Five and Po were going to attack once they reached the village, but something stopped Tigress, something that made her suspicious, soon everyone would stop like her.
-Why are we stopping?- Po asked, making everyone puzzled, they set his sights on Tigress, who looked deep into the village, trying to make a strategy that worked perfectly.
-Tigress, we need to attack now!- Viper said desperated, she was shocked seeing the village she considered home be "stolen"
-We can't there are too many- Monkey mentioned, and he wasn't wrong, they were too many to go into battle
-Sooo what's your plan...Tigress?- Po asked, looking for a clear answer, he turns to Tigress, who was thoughtful, she took a little time to turn her head towards him
-Stay together- she said, before jumping into battle, everyone followed her.
When the bandits realized the presence of the warriors, they started to attack, the heroes began a defense against the first horde of bandits (mainly avoided the bandits attacks performed with iron weapons), and when they finished surrounded by the bandits, they made a circle formation, where all the backs were protected, from there they began the "offensive".
At the shout of "Now!" by Tigress, the warriors began attacking, using all their skills and what they have learned to their benefit, seeing that this would be easier than they had thought, the Furious Five and Po defeated the first horde in record time, this caused a lot of confusion among them... ending in complete chaos, the Dragon Warrior took advantage of that and began to use his techniques of inner peace to defeat the second horde of bandits, who were less than the first horde.
Despite what Tigress said, they went their own way, Viper got into the buildings to defeat the bandits that went inside to steal the belongings of the helpless villagers, Crane used his wings to fan powerful gusts of wind that destroyed some bows and arrows.
Monkey went deeper into the village, where he found carts with all that belonged to the villagers, and seeing that no one saw him, he hid the carts covering them with blankets that were on the carts and moved them behind a building, the place was dark and creepy, but it was safer than leaving the carts on the street, after that he continued his attack.
Mantis was beating a gorilla by himself when he saw an archer about to shoot an arrow, using his incredible speed, he managed to cut the bowstring, thereupon he used his front legs to leave that archer unconscious, he did the same with two other archers.
Tigress looked sideways, only to realize that the others were gone, -It seems they didn't understand the part of "staying together"- she thought frustrated, while searching for the others, and leaving unconscious any enemy that she ran into.
Po was hitting a bandit with his fist when he saw a group of bandits falling to the powerful kick that Tigress did, upon landing she maintained a fighting stance staying alert, when she saw her partner, she immediately approached his location, where she began to fight at his side.
-If my intuition doesn't fail me, we are alone- she said, while striking a crocodile using the palm of her paw, she turned her back; in that way she would fight on one side and Po on the other side.
-I guess that doesn't count the bandits that there are around us- Po said trying to appear calm but failing, while giving a belly flop to an unfortunate wolf that was about to give an axe blow to Po's head.
-Good guess- Tigress said a bit surprised, before giving a side kick to a leopard, leaving him unconscious immediately.
The two fought for a few minutes wiping out the bandits around them, the few who remained lost their moral, dropped their weapons and ran to the way they came. It was time to end the third horde (better known as "the left overs") using a special tactic ... teamwork.
While the others were "missing", Tigress and Po were fighting together: thanks to Tigress's strength, she could raise the panda and throw him at a group of enemies, and thanks to Po's weight they had no chance against him; they also did the opposite, but in that case what ended with the enemy was the kicks that Tigress performed in midair and/or landing.
A strenuous minutes later there was no trace of that army of bandits, just when they celebrated for a brief moment, the others appeared:
-Guys, where were you?- Po asked a little annoyed by what they did, Tigress was furious because they didn't follow the plan
-We were on the other side of the town, as there was no danger, we began to return some objects to the villagers- Crane replied, trying to defend himself and the others from the deadly glare of Tigress.
-Anyways...now we must return to the palace and tell what happened to Master Shifu- Tigress said as she left her little angry trance and began to walk toward her "home", they followed her
When Po and the Furious Five started walking towards the palace after that victory, they began to hear some applause, the curious thing was that it was just one that applauded, whose identity was unknown. Tigress turned towards the sound generated by the applause, at that moment, she saw someone wearing a garment made of expensive fabrics that covered his entire body, he had his head looking at the ground, the color was ... dark blue with an embroidered white.
-No ... it can't be- Tigress said to herself, she couldn't believe what her eyes saw, soon Po an the others turned and saw a paralyzed Tigress in front of a stranger.
-Missed me?- the stranger turned to her, with a smirk on his face, he was a tiger; Tigress was still incredulous as she repeated the words "You are not real" over and over, the presence of the tiger meant a thing to her... The Awakening.
