(Thank you all for your reads and whatnot! You´re all amazing!)

It was a normal day at the jade palace. everyone was minding their own business, both by training and entertaining themselves. But in a specific place chaos was happening…

''PO! Open the window! I can´t breath with all the dust in here!'' An urgent voice called out of the grey.

''I can´t see! HELP!'' Another one yelled. ''WHY CAN´T YOU OPEN THE WINDOW?!''

''It isn´t my fault that you tried to blow away the dust on the table! even if you knew there were just as much to make three pillows out of it!'' The first one argued back.

'' WING OF JUSTICE! Ca-caw!'' Suddenly, a gush of wind flew into the room, making the two inside of the room jump in surprise. The dust began to clear out, showing a panda and a tigress in the room, both wielding broom.

''Crane!'' Po happily yelled out, before sprinting to hug the crane at the door. ''THANK YOU! YOU SAVED USS!'' he engulfed Crane in a bone crushing hug.

''No… Problem… Po… Can´t— BREATH!'' Po immediately let go, feeling a bit embarrassed. The avian smiled knowingly, before turning to look at Tigress. ''Soo.. What are you two doing down in the old scroll room?''

''Master Shift told us to clean it, and I can see why…'' Tigress said, as she slid her finger on a table. When she showed Crane how it looked like after, he frowned in disgust.

''So, wanna help us?'' Po asked, grinning at Crane with his big gleaming eyes.

''Oh man, you know I would love to help you two… but…I need to go help… Viper…'' He struggled to find an explanation. ''With her.. Ribbon dancing…! Yes! So.. BYE!'' He yelled out before sprinting up the stairs and to the barracks.

Tigress groaned, then started sweeping again. ''The faster we start, the earlier we finish…''

Po joined her a second after, sweeping along with the rhythm inside of his head . He swirled with the broom, soon forgetting that Tigress was with him. And he only remembered it when he started to hear her soft laugh from the other end of the room. Looking at her, he saw her leaning against the broom for support whilst holding her stomach. He couldn´t help but smile widely at her.

''Im taking that as a compliment'' Po stated, then he continued to sweep. He shot a fast glance towards Tigress, to see her raising a brow in confusion

''Taking what as a compliment?'' She asked, getting curious.

''The laugh. Its rare for you to laugh at anything funny I do.'' He suddenly got an idea. ''How about we have a battle off?''

''A battle off?'' She echoed as he nodded.''But we´re supposed to be cleaning..''

''Oh come on! We need to do something! This is boring me out!'' He exaggerated, making Tigress stifle another laugh.

''Fine, but don´t expect me to go soft on you'' She playfully stated. And then the battle begun.

''First challenge; Warming up with a dance!'' Po was the one who started. He did some simple moves, some that Tigress has never seen. She couldn´t stop the wide smile that was forming. When he finished with a majestic twirl, he smirked at her.

It was her turn.

She started off simple, like Po did, but decided to heat things up much quicker. She had such control over her body, that it felt like she was doing some Tai Chi moves without really knowing. She did a few flips and twists, making Po shiver. Well, this was so on!

''You won this round, but the next one is mine!'' He stated, before sweeping up the broom on the floor. ''Next challenge; tricks with an object!'' He smiled. He knew he was going to win this, because he was a true champion at stick tricks. (NOTHING DIRTY!)

He started again, and moved the broom so swiftly that only the outlines were shown. It amazed Tigress, looking as the broom flew up in the air, making multiple turns before landing in Po´s hands as he had done a split.

This was bad.

She was going to lose this round.

''Your turn'' He handed her the broom, and she just looked at it. Oh no.

''Can´t i change the object?'' She asked him.

''Nope. I did it, now its your turn.'' He firmly stated, crossing his arms as he looked at her. She sighed, before trying to twist the broom around her arm, but instead it hit her right on her head. Tigress could hear Po snickering behind her, and she felt herself heat up in embarrassment.

''I retreat. I can´t do it!''

''So you´re just going to lose a point like that? Man, what a kitten'' He laughed, not really bothered by it. He didn´t hear Tigress' growls until she punched the panda´s arm, making him flinch.

''Don´t you DARE call me kitten.'' She threatened, and he nodded.

''Okey, so… Third Challenge; Surprise!'' He quickly changed the just looked at him with a questioning look.

''Surprise? What is that supposed to m—'' Before she could finish her sentence, she was grabbed by her wrists and pulled into Po. Her back softly landed on Po´s stomach and she could feel his warmth trough it. It feels so soft and relaxing, that Tigress nearly wanted to drift into sleep by it.

''Yanno, it takes two to battle, right?'' He whispered in her ear whilst smirking, then twirled her in his arms so that her face was facing his. The tigress felt herself blush. Sure, she had hugged him before, but it was the first time she really took notice to how close they have become. She shivered when she felt his arms snake around her waist and lower back.

Po felt himself starting to get nervous. He had to do it before he could just wimp away like usual. He leaned down, his nose touching hers and just millimeters away from her lips. Before he could collide their lips for them to share their first kiss…

…Someone cleared their throat from the entrance. The two of them quickly let go of each other, turning to look who it was. Both the panda and the tigress felt themselves pale as they saw their master by the door with an unfamiliar face.

''I see that you two are still 'cleaning'. I´m sorry to disturb you, but the other masters are on their way to the kitchen to eat some dumplings your dad has sent us. You could join us when.. you´re done… with 'cleaning'.'' He said, eyeing both of them. Tigress nodded, but Po was still shocked.

Soon after Master Shift had left the two, Tigress looked over at Po.

''Po? Are you okey?'' She asked him

''No I am not! I´ve had enough of this! Why do they just randomly pop out of nowhere whenever I have the courage to kiss you?!'' He frustratedly yelled out, his brow narrowed.

Realizing what he had said, Tigress looked a bit taken back. So thats why he would always leave so grumpily… ''Well, how about a change?'' She suddenly asked, making Po look down at her with a questioning look. Before he could say anything, she gave him a light kiss on the lips, catching him off guard.

She smirked and picked up her broom, then turned to walk out of the room. She stopped just before stepping out. ''Well, I guess I won the battle. And if you´re going to stand there all day, I would love to eat your dumpling.'' She said just before leaving.

Score:
tiger -1
panda - 0

(A/N: I´m going to make this a continuing challenge! Every once a week, the two of them are going to battle about something! Hope you enjoyed this :3 )
