A Hero's Sacrifice

Po: "So you've finally decided to release chapter six, eh?"

Me: "Yes, now be quiet and enjoy."

Chapter 6: Confessions

For now, the chaos had ended and our heroes could actually get some peaceful sleep. Well, until they get to Mystic City, anyway. Everybody was sleeping except for Po and Tigress. Po couldn't sleep because he was thinking about how strong Tikal could really be, and Tigress had something on her mind.

"This Tikal guy really can't be that strong, can he? There's just no way..." With his mind racing, he got up and walked out of the room to get some fresh air. Tigress noticed this, and thought to herself for a moment. "I wonder what Po is thinking about? I should probably go check on him, just to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid." She then got up, and followed Po.

Outside, it was quite a beautiful night. After the tsunami that had came earlier, the waters have calmed down a bit. Po decided to meditate, because it felt very peaceful. His meditation was soon interrupted by Tigress, wondering why Po was out here by himself.

"Po?" Tigress asked, making Po open his eyes and turn around.

"Tigress? I thought you were sleeping." he was shocked to see her awake, yet he felt happy at the same time.

"Not really. Just woke up to check if any bandits were trying to steal anything." She obviously lied, and proceeded to turn around as quickly as she could.

"Tigress?"

"Huh?" Tigress stopped dead in her tracks when she heard Po call her name. She wanted to say something to him, yet she was too afraid to say it. "Come on...I'm freaking Tigress! A Kung Fu Master! I shouldn't be afraid of anything!" she repeated that in her head over and over again, finally facing Po.

"Do you remember what you were going to say on the boat when we were going to Gongmen City? asked Po, making Tigress widen her eyes.

"W-well...um..." Tigress tried her best to not show her nervousness, but on the inside, she was screaming. "Dang it! Why can't I just let it out?! Why can't I just say it!"

"Forget that I said that..." Po sighed to himself, figuring that he would go back to his meditation. Tigress facepalmed herself out of frustration, as she made a sigh as well. "Wait. I want to tell you."

"Um...okay then." Po responded awkwardly. In fact, this whole situation had awkward written all over it.

Tigress took a deep breath, finally gaining the confidence to tell Po what she wanted to tell him. "Po, I wasn't always hardcore. Even though I really don't show my emotions, I can still feel. I still have feelings. It seems like a lot of people forget about that."

Po listened to Tigress and nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I think the first time you really showed your emotions was when you hugged me that one time...haha...remember that?" his laugh sounded like an awkward laugh, with Tigress responding with the same type of laugh.

"Haha...yeah..." she blushed a little bit, but quickly stopped when she tried to continue her story. "Anyway, before you came, I really didn't show my emotions, but you really taught me how to feel. You're a good friend, and I thank you for that." When Tigress said that, it made Po feel good inside.

"You're welcome, Tigress. I'm glad I was able to help." said Po, showing a smile.

"But ever since the events at Gongmen City, I've been feeling different...I can't explain it..." Tigress still couldn't let it out, and Po was wondering what she was about to say. "What I'm trying to say is...I think I..." As soon as she was about to finish her sentence, the other four warriors woke up and came into Po's and Tigress' conversation.

"Of course..." Po and Tigress spoke, but it was a thought.

"What are you guys doing up?" Monkey asked, showing his curiosity.

"Just trying to make sure that no more bandits come again." said Po, wanting to not answer that question with the truth.

"Well, it's about to be morning. Hopefully, you guys got some sleep." said Viper.

Crane was looking to see if they were at their destination yet, and soon, they were. "Oh, whaddya know, looks like we're here."

"YES! FINALLY! EVERYBODY, WAKE UP! WE'RE HERE!" Mantis screamed at the top of his lungs, making everybody wake up. They will soon get ready for the fight of their lives.

End of Chapter 6

Me: "Yeah, you can pretty much call this the Po and Tigress chapter. That reminds me, Po, are you and Tigress gonna get together in Kung Fu Panda 3?"

Po: "Shut up."

Me: -_-
