Me: Okay. You guys can slap me for taking so long on this. *Discord and Deadpool slap me* I've been trying to, but with a combination of writer's block and physical therapy it makes it hard. I'm gonna try to power through the writer's block!

Discord: Because that worked so well the other times you tried to.

Me: Yeah. This is like my third attempt at writing this.

Deadpool: But, on the bright side, he got his desktop backgroun to be a pisture that involved me! I'm playing a DS in the picture.

Me: While there are sentinals rampaging in the background and a guy beside you is yelling at you. Well, enough of that, enjoy the chapter!

Discord: If this one even makes it to the story.

When the morning gong rang, everyone greeted Master Shifu at once. Except DB. He was few seconds late. "Sorry about being a little late. Just so sore from being slammed on the ground yesterday. Shouldn't be late tomorrow."

"For being late, you will have to run twenty laps around the Jade Palace."

DB nodded. "Alright. Moving should help some with the soreness." The group then headed to get some breakfast.

When the group arrived, they found a scene no one, except DB, was expecting. Informant was sitting at the table, talking to Song. "And then, we slid down the zip line. When we got to the other side, we cut it, only one of them managing to get onto the ledge with us. He was quickly thrown over the edge."

DB then said, "I thought that story was still classified?"

Informant shook his head as his attention turned to DB. "No. It was declassified just before you were sent here."

Song turned to the group and jumped into a hug with Po once she seen him. "It's so great to see you!"

"It's great to see you, too!" Shifu turned his attention to DB, who only smirked and pointe to Tigress, who was furious. At that, Shifu nodded in understanding what the plan was. Po and Song broke apart and Po asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Well, the Ladies of the Shade are getting along nicely, and it has been so long since we've seen each other, so I thought it would be a nice surprise to see you!"

Po nsmiled and nodded. "It is nice to see you, but right now isn't really the best ti-"

DB cut him off saying, "Of course it's a good time! No such thing as a bad time to see friends you haven't seen in a long time!"

Tigress then said, "But, we have a lot of training to do fo-"

DB waved it away dismissively. "He can easily catch up on the training. He is the Dragon Warrior. He could probably make it all the way through the tunnel blindfolded and by himself. Even if completely by accident."

"Do you really want to take any chances, though?"

DB gave Tigress a deadpan stare. "Just going on this adventure is taking a big chance, as it is likely at least one of us will die. It increases if we meet an enemy on the way."

Mantis raised one of his thingies and asked, "Can I opt out of this?"

DB shook his head and said, "Nope. If anyone leaves, it increases the chance of someone dying. And that is with some being left here to guard the valley. But, anyways. Po, Song. Go have a great day."

Po turned to Shifu and asked, "Can we master Shifu?"

Shifu sighed and said, "Very well. But, you must make up for it with training."

"Of course master."

DB smiled brightly. "Great! Now, let's get us some breakfast!"

Before they did, though, Shifu said, "DB. May I speak to you, in private?" DB nodded.

The two left the room and got out of hearing range of everyone there. As soon as they did, Shifu smacked DB in the head with his staff. "What are you thinking!?"

DB rubbed his head and replied, "That staff can really hurt!" He got another smack. "OW! Okay, okay! I was thinking Tigress would follow, I'd have someone who looked a lot like Tigress take her place, and Tigress, in her rage, would reveal herself and reveal her feelings to Po."

"And if she doesn't!?"

"I have a plan for that."

"Which is?" DB only grinned. "I don't like the look on your face."

DB chuckled. "That is a good thing." With that, he went back towards the kitchen.

Shifu sighed. "I'll never be able to understand that wolf."

"I'M A COYOTE! NOT A WOLF!"

Shifu blinked and asked, "How did he hear me?"

45 minutes later

DB began running his laps as Po and Song left. And, as DB predicted, Tigress followed behind them. The two started out visiting some of the different vendors in the town. Tigress was doing a great job of staying out of sight. When they were at jewelry stand, Tigress was hidden in an alleyway. She noticed Song laugh, but couldn't understand what they were saying, so she moved closer, being right behind a short stack of crates. Out of nowhere, a cart full of barrels came down the street. It crashed into a building and th barrels all came tumbling out. All of them heading straight for Tigress. She didn't have time to move out of the way, and thus was covered by a pile of barrels. Po and Song turned to see the pile of barrels and Po said, "I'm glad no one was there. That could have been bad." The two then continued on their way, as Tigress climbed out of the pile. She continued her pursuit of the two.

Mr. Ping's, ten minutes later

Tigress followed them to the restaurant, but stayed just outside, where she could continue to spy on them without being seen. It seemed her bad day wasn't over, as someone yelled, "The Dragon Warrior is in the Dragon Warrior Noodle and Tofu with someone!" Tigress was just able to turn in time to see the stampede of fans before being trampled. Right after the entire group ran over her, an elderly goat with a walker slowly made their way towards the restaurant, walking over Tigress on the way. After they made it over, Tigress stood up and headed inside an alleyway, so as to stay hidden on case Po and Song were to come out while she rested from that..ahem...wonderful experience. (A/N: Discord: I wouldn't call that a wonderful experience. Me: I know. But, that is why I put the "ahem" in there. So the audience would know. Man. You guys were doing so good with not interrupting the story.) After a few minutes, Tigress walked to the end of the alleyway and looked towards the restaurant just as Po and Song were leaving. They went the opposite direction she was. She again continued to follow them.

When the duo came to a bridge, they stopped and Tigress again was hiding from them. After a few minutes of talking, the two left the bridge. Tigress began following, but the bridge collapsed as soon as she got to the middle of it.

Po and Song turned to look at it. Po said, "Wow. Weren't we lucky we got off of it when we did?"

Under the bridge, Tigress had leapt out and, unknowingly, into the arms of a guy. When she realized what her position was, she looked at the guy, who was an ugly panther. He smiled at her. A few seconds later, there was a splash heard and Tigress was chasing her prey, once more. They had ended up going into the forest, with Tigress in hot pursuit.

Forest, half an hour later

Po and Song were sitting in a clearing, again just chatting. Unknown to them, Tigress was in a branch just above them. Eventually, Song asked, "So, Po. Tell me, are you in a relationship?"

Tigress dug her claws into the branch she was in as she leaned in to listen better. Po replied, "You mean, like a romantic relationship?" Song nodded. Po began to blush and stutter. His need to reply was cut short when the tree began to creak and was leaning towards them. Po grabbed Song out of the way just as the tree fell. "Maybe we should get out of here before any more trees fall."

"Good idea."

After the two left, the tree rolled over and Tigress stood up. "I give up." With that, she began heading to the Jade Palace.

Jade Palace, an hour later

Tigress entered the Palace grounds and noticed Po and Song head off in some direction, appearing to have gotten there only moments before. She then heard some yelling going on inside the Sacred hall of Warriors. She decided it best not to see what was going on in there.

She should have, as she would have known seen it was Shifu yelling at DB. "OF ALL THE BONEHEADED, IDIOTIC IDEAS I HAVE EVER HEARD, THAT IS ONE OF THE WORST! WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURSELF!?"

DB lowered his head and replied, "Nothing."

"GOOD, BECAUSE NOTHING COULD BE SAID TO REVOKE WHAT YOU DID! YOU COULD HAVE KILLED TIGRESS OR SOMEONE ELSE!"

At that moment, Grandfather stepped forward. "Shifu. He's learned from his mistake."

"AND YOU THINK THAT'S ENOUGH FOR WHAT HE DID!?"

Grandfather kept his expression neutral. "Well, punishment is to be used as a tool for teaching, not as a weapon when you are angry. So, perhaps you should calm yourself down before giving him a punishment."

"CLAM DOWN!? YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN AFTER WHAT HE DID!? HE HAD TIGRESS CRUSHED BY BARRELS, TRAMPLED BY CITIZENS, DROPPED IN A RIVER BY DESTROYING A BRIDGE AS SHE WAS ON IT, AND THEN HAD HER CRUSHED AGAIN UNDER A TREE! AND YOU EXPECT ME TO CALM DOWN FROM THAT!?"

"Yes. Because, if you don't you might give him an unfair punishment. Have him repair the bridge and tell Tigress what he did. That should be pnishment enough, as he has learned his lesson, even without the punishment."

"PUNISHMENT ENOUGH!? PUNISHMENT ENOUGH!? IF ANYTHING, THAT IS TOO LITTLE PUNISHMENT! HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT IS PUNISHMENT ENOUGH!?"

Grandfather sighed. "Go calm yourself. Now! Then, if you think it isn't punishment enough, then give more." Shifu walked out of there grumbling to himself. Grandfather turned to DB, who still had his head down in shame. "Now, before you go and talk to Tigress, tell me. What were you thinking?"

"I thought that the barrels would just knock her out into the open, the crowd of people would ush her into the restaurant, that she would jump out of the river into plain view of Po and Song, and that the tree would fall so that she would be visible to Po and Tigress. But, the wind blew it in a different direction."

Grandfather nodded. "And what did you learn about what you should have done instead?"

"Not even called Song in and tried one of my other ideas."

"Alright. Now, go tell Tigress." DB nodded and left. When he was gone, Grandfather let out a sigh. "In every generation, it's the same. Someone with hidden emotions and someone needing to help them reveal those feelings, but that someone helping to reveal those feelings goes about it so stupidly. I'm too old for this sort of stuff. Why is love so complicated?" He then left, as well.

DB walked down the hall to Tigress's room and knocked on the door. There was no answer. "I know you're in there. It's me, DB." After a few seconds, he heard some movement. Tigress opened the door just a crack, so he could see only one eye. "We need to talk."

"What about?" It was obvious in her voice she had been crying.

"About what happened today."

"You mean Po's heart going towards Song while I get beaten up in the worst way possible? I'd rather not." She tried to close the door, but DB's foot was in the way. "Please. Just leave me be."

DB took in a deep breath and prepared himself for what was to come. "I just wanted to say, it was one of my worst plans ever."

Tigress blinked and opened the door slightly. "Your plan?"

He nodded and said, "Let me explain before you yell at me." She nodded. He took another breath and said, "I had hoped that your jealousy would make you reveal yourself and then reveal your feelings. But, when I knew it wasn't I made sure to have things happen. But, it did not get the results I had desired, which was you being revealed to them. I now realise how stupid I was. I'm sorry."

At first it looked like Tigress was going to explode, but then she jut let out a sigh, being completely spent, emotionally. The two just stood there in silence. After what seemed to be an eternity, Tigress asked, "Do you have any other ideas to use tomorrow? I'm too spent today."

DB smiled only slightly. "Yes. I do."

"I just hope he and Song don't get together."

"They won't. Song is the only one with any feelings. Po just sees her as a friend."

"How do you know?"

"The way they were acting towards one another. You'd need to pay close attention to notice it, though. I'll talk to you later. I've got a bridge to rebuild." The two shared a small smile. Tigress then closed her door and DB left.

Me: Got it done.

Discord: Guess it will be put onto the story.

Deadpool: So you guys have the chance to throw a party!

Pinkie: Did somebody say party!?

Me: Pinkie, you need to leave! There is already enough crazy chaos! We don't need any more!

Pinkie: Okie Dokie Loki! *she hops away*

Me: Well, review. Again, sorry for the delay.
