Po was taken back to the hospital to see how bad injuries have gotten, because it's possible that he was gonna die after what happened in the dungeon, the lin kuei was taken back to chorh gom prison after the battle. In po's hospital room, doctors and nurses were around po's unconscious body placing a new neck brace around his neck and placing gauze around his wounds, tigress was on one side of po gently holding his paw and placing it on her chest where her heart was with tears coming out of her golden eyes, she prayed inside of her head for po to be okay, one doctor walked up to her and grabbed her by the arm, not by force, but in a way to let her know she has to leave the room.
"Master tigress, with all due respect, we need to finish our work with po here, you need to leave this room, we'll let you know when to come back in." the doctor said, tigress followed his orders, only because she was still emotional over what happened, when the door was closing, she slowly tried to walk back in, but the door closed all the way by then.
Tigress looked over at cheetah who has a few gauze around her arms and legs and a couple of stitches and bandages on her head, she was sitting on a waiting chair in the hallway, she walked over to her and knelt down to get her to look at her at eye level, she opened her eyes to look at tigress.
"Are you alright ?" tigress asked to her, cheetah didn't know what to say, she wasn't sure what to do about tiger, she wasn't sure if she should break up with him or give him a punishment, she was more likely thinking of reasoning with him.
"I don't know master tigress, I mean, I love tiger, I've known him and he would do anything like that, I just hope he has a good explanation behind his actions, he might have lost his memory or something." Cheetah said getting emotional, tigress stood up and looked over at tiger, he was sitting in a chair back in his original attire, he seemed to be really sad, and he also seemed to be blaming himself for what he did, Tigress nudged cheetah gently motioning her to follow her, with that, they walked over to tiger.
Tiger had his paws to his head, he was leaning back on forth a little trying to move past and was desperate too, he looked up to see his sister and girlfriend looking back at him with anger and confusion mixed together, he looked back down sighing in sadness and didn't want to talk to them, tigress knelt down to try to force him to look at her, he doesn't even try to look at her, he still believes they were very pissed at him and still believe that career was going downhill and that he would have to go to prison, tigress took both of his paws and brought them down making him look at her with tears in his eyes.
"Tiger, please just tell us, why did you do all that stuff with the lin kuei? How can you do something like this ?" tigress asked a little desperately, tiger sighed than started telling his story
"Earlier In The Week"
At the emerald palace, tiger and cheetah were standing in the center of the palace next to each other and the others had assignments to do in the meantime, master kai told them that there was a recent invasion in their local valley and they have to take care of it, they bowed to him and did as what they were told, there was no traces of the villains in the valley so they had to check the forest.
"I don't know where they went, but I don't think that there that far away, maybe we'll keep searching the forest but maybe we should split up." Tiger said, cheetah looked over at him and nodded before replying.
"Okay, but tiger, please be careful, they can be dangerous." Cheetah said, she then kissed tiger on the cheek before taking off in one direction, tiger placed a paw on his cheek where he was kissed, but he soon snapped out of it and took off in another direction.
When tiger landed in one area of the forest, he heard evil laughter, it caused him to search around the area pretty quick to figure out where it was coming from.
"Who's there ? Showy yourself!" tiger called out, a evil voice then replied saying "Very well" tiger then turned and looked down one path to see heilang the leader of the lin kuei, he was the first real villain tiger fought before so therefore, he had a ton of beef with this guy.
"YOU !" tiger said all angrily remember who it was, heilang let out an evil laugh, just then chain hammers came out towards tiger, he jumped out of the way, and then he fought off his men taking them out one by one, he heard heilang laugh again, he turned around towards him to see heilang have a chain hammer in his hand and uses it, it hits tiger in the head knocking him out.
Tiger woke up with a gasp and checked out his surroundings, he saw that he was in a dark cave like place where no one would find him.
"What the ?... where the hell am I ?... wai-, why can't I move ?" tiger said, he looked down to see that he was chained to a stone table, he tried to fight of it, but the chains were too tough.
An evil laugh occurs again, heilang walks in holding something in his hand, he stands by the table next to tiger.
"What do you want heilang?" tiger asked with anger, heilang laughed again and lifted his hand to show tiger a needle with some type of fluid in it.
"I want you to join us." Heilang said before he placed the needle into tiger's neck and pushed the liquid into him, tiger lets out a scream of agony and anger as it was hurting really bad, he tried to fight it, but it was to strong and unbearable, after a minute of struggling, tiger went still with a blank expression, heilang freed tiger from the chains, tiger got off the table and faced heilang, but instead of fighting him, he knelt down and bowed to him.
"I would be honored to join the lin kuei" tiger said smiling evilly, from that point on, they gave tiger his ninja outfit and he was out running ramped as a lin kuei member, when they met with cheetah, she was horrified that tiger joined the lin kuei and didn't know why it happened, they captured her soon after and things took a turn for the worst following the event.
"Back To The Present"
Tiger finished his story and was crying a little bit still and he stood up and turned away from tigress and cheetah and leaned his head against the wall.
"I'm really sorry, I tried but I couldn't control myself." Tiger said, tigress moved over to tiger turn him towards her and hugged him, stroking his back before he hugged back.
"It's okay tiger, we lose control sometimes, and I understand you didn't mean it. But the important this is, we still love you, and nobody knows who you were under the control." Tigress said, cheetah then walked forward before speaking to tiger herself.
"The other important thing is, we'll move past this and pretend this never happened, your still a hero to everyone, and there's nothing to be ashamed of, just drop this." Cheetah said, she hugged tiger too, tiger wrapped his other arm around cheetah and he felt better and slimed.
"I love you guys, thank you." Tiger said crying a little more, they released from the hug before he looked up to po's room, know there's one more task for the day, apologizing.
