Chapter 7

A few weeks had passed sense Fire and Water arrived at the Palace.

As the others continued their training, our newlyweds had a chance to relax and enjoy their newfound happiness.

'I think we should leave somewhere and relax a bit?' Tigress asked Po as they were laying on Tigress' bed.

'I think that would be a great idea Tigress, we only have time to ourselves when the others are training.' Po replied as he pulled her in for a kiss.

'Yes and we haven't had the chance to mate yet.. Because Meili has no room for herself yet...' Tigress said whit a hint of disappointment in her voice.

As Po heard the word "mate" he fell on the floor and his face lit up like fire.

'Mate? Ugh Tigress..' Po tried to get more words to come out.

As Po tried to get words out of his mouth, Tigress leaned in whit a mischievous grin on her face and slightly bit Pos ear.

'What was that for Tigress?' Po said whit a confused look on his face after Tigress let go of his ear.

'What, did you think i was gonna let that one slide?' Tigress looked at the now confused panda.

'Ugh...' Po tried to answer.

'Did you think we weren't gonna mate, Po?' Tigress started to look a little furious.

'No.. That's not what i meant.' Po said with a low voice.

'Then what did you mean by it?' Tigress looked at Po.

'Well.. Can we even do it? I mean You are a beautiful tiger and i'm a fat panda.' Po looked at Tigress with a sad face.

'Ohh that's what you are worried about.. Po don't say that about yourself. And as for the mating... We'll figure it out together right..?' Tigress said as she snuggled Po and pulled him in for a kiss.

'Thanks Tigress, you really are the best mate i could've asked for.' Po said as he pulled Tigress in for another kiss.

After a few minutes of silence.

'So Tigress, where do think we should go?' Po asked to break the silence.

'Hmm a beach sounds nice, don't you think?' Tigress replied as she purred laying on Pos stomach.

'The beach sounds nice, it should be nice this time of year.' Po replied sliding his finger across Tigress' back.

'I think we should tell the others at dinner. Viper could take care of Meili for us as we are away.' Tigress said looking at Po with a smile.

'Yeah i think she would love to, they do spend a lot of time together. But i'm not sure how Meili's gonna take the news...' Po replied.

hr

At the kitchen.

As the others had finished their training for the day, they stormed the kitchen like a storm.

'Po are the noodles ready yet?' Lee asked as he sat down on his usual place.

'Yeah just about done!' Po replied looking at the now fully loaded kitchen.

'It seems we are gonna need a bigger table...' Po said as he looked every one sitting tightly around the table.

A pair of blushing teenagers were sitting shoulder to shoulder, as they tried to hide their faces from the others. But that didn't go un noticed to the others who sat next to them.

'Lee what's the color of Tigress' vest?' Monkey teased Lee.

'Shut up...' Lee looked embarrassed.

'Yeah Water, what is the color of her vest?' Fire teased her sister as she highfived Monkey.

'Ugh...' Waters face lit up even more as she looked at Lee and then back at the table.

'Come on guys.. stop teasing the young couple.' Po and Tigress chuckled looking at Lees and Waters reactions.

As Lee and Water heard them say that they were a couple.

'We are not a couple!' Lee and Water said in unison, but before anyone could replie to that Water had stormed out of the kitchen. As Lee watched Water leave the others could see it on Lees face that he cared for Water.

'Lee go after her!' Others said in unison as they looked at Lee with a commanding look in their faces.

As Lee took of after Water, Po and Tigress told everyone about their plans to go on a "vacation" together. Of course Meili wasn't happy at first but then agreed to say with aunt Viper and the rest.

hr

Meanwhile at the Secret Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom.

Water was crying as she had stormed out of the kitchen without thinking that Lee would come after her.

'I'm gonna kill them.. Why did they have to say stuff like that.. I'm not even sure he likes me...' Water sat under the tree with her head behind her knees crying.

'I mean who would ever love someone like me... a komodo dragon... I'm always looked at like i'm some kinda monster.' She continued to cry.

After a while Lee heard her crying and found her sitting under the tree.

As Lee saw her tears he started to run towards Water. And as he got to the tree.

'Water why are you crying?' Lee put his paw on her shoulder.

'Non of your business..' She continued to cry.

'Not my business? But I lik- LOVE YOU!' Lee shouted looking at Waters beautiful face.

'You lo- love me? Why would you love a monster like me?' Water looked at Lee whit tears still in her eyes.

'I mean, look at me.. I'm not even beautiful..' Water cried.

'You are in my eyes, the most beautiful girl there is!' Lee shouted as he pulled Water in for a hug.

At first Water tried to pull away but a warm feeling came from her heart as she reached her arms around Lee to except his hug still tears in her eyes.

As Lee pulled away he leaned in to wipe away Waters tears.

'I'll make sure you never have to cry again.' Lee said with a warm smile on his face as he wiped her tears away.

As he was about to do that he heard Water say 'I love you too.'

After Lee had wiped her tears away he felt something push against his lips. His arms pulled Water in for a hug after their first kiss.

'That was amazing, i'll never let you go.' Lee whispered to Waters ear.

As they lay by the tree, another couple looked down from afar.

'I knew from the moment they saw eachother for the first time, that this was gonna happen sooner or later.' Tigress leaned on Pos shoulder.

'Me too, things are getting interesting around here.. Now that we have two couples living here.' Po smiled.

'I think there's gonna be a third one soon...' Tigress chuckled.

'You know something i don't?' Po looked confused.

'Haven't you noticed how Crane and Viper act around eachother?' Tigress chuckled and kissed Po.

'Crane and Viper huh? Monkey and Mantis are gonna go crazy... that they don't have anyone for them... as they live whit a place full of couples.' Po laughed.

'I can't wait to see their faces, when they learn that there are only couples here... And i'm sure Fire will be happy for her sister.' Tigress chuckled.

As they decided to go get some sleep, they saw that Lee and Water had the same idea.

As Water and Lee were walking back to the barracks.

'Lee would you mind if i sleep in your room today?' Water asked mischievously.

'I don't mind, but we have to be quiet...' Lee smirked.

hr

As the morning gong sound woke everyone, there was an awkward moment as everyone opened their doors to the hallway.

'Busted!' Monkey and Mantis shouted in unison as Lee and Water came from Lees room.

'We just.. umm.. fell asleep talking last night.' Lee blushed as he looked Water who has chuckling at Lees embarrassed reaction.

'Sure that's what happened..' Monkey and Mantis chuckled but stopped in their tracks as they got death glares from Po and Tigress.

'Ok ok, no need for that, sorry guys.' Monkey and Mantis said in unison.

As Tigress looked at the other females.

'We are so gonna have a girls bath night out today.' She thought.

As they had something to eat, they all headed for the training hall.

'So girls, what would you say for a girls only bath night today after practice?' Tigress asked the other females.

'That sounds nice.' The others agreed.

'Last time there were only Me and Tigress around, but now we have more girls living at the Palace so it's gonna be fun.' Viper added.

As the girls were planning their evening, so where the guys.

'If the girls are gonna hog the bath for the night, i think we should get something to eat at the Valley.' Crane said as he looked around.

'Yeah, then we can have some time off from the girls..' Monkey replied.

'Speak for yourself, i don't mind having them around.' Lee stared at Water.

'Hey not all of us have a girlfriend or a wife..' Mantis and Monkey said in unison.

To that Po and Lee looked at the girls and chuckled.

'Maybe you'll get lucky sometime...' They stared at Monkey and Mantis who were not amused.

'You agree with as right Crane?' Monkey asked.

'Huh what? I wasn't listening..' As Crane turned his head away from Viper whom he had been staring.

Po and Lee looked at Crane and started to laugh.

'Crane didn't listed because he was busy staring at Viper..' Po and Lee smirked.

'How'd you know?' Crane blushed.

'Uhh i know you weren't looking at Tigress because she's my wife, Water is Lees girlfriend, Fire is too young for you and Meili is my daughter and she is way too young for you, not that i would ever let any of you date her...' Po looked at Crane.

'Ok you got a point there my friend...' Crane chuckled.

hr

As the boys left down the Valley to enjoy their evening, the girls walked to the bath house.

'Ahh, this feels good.' Tigress said as she sat down in the water.

'You said it sister.' Viper replied as she slithered in.

'Come on Fire.. you don't have to be embarrassed in here.. there are only girls around.' Water pulled her sister out from the changing room.

'Ok.. fine i'll come..' Fire looked from behind he changing room door.

'She really is shy, even around us girls..' Viper said to Water as she got in the water.

'She just needs more time.. I'm sure she'll come around.' Water looked at Viper.

'So how did last night go with Lee?' Tigress asked with a grin on her face.

'I think it went great, considering you slept in his room..' Viper said mischievously.

Water sank to the bottom of the bath as her face lit up like fire, after hearing Vipers comment.

'I take that as a yes..' Tigress and Viper chuckled in unison.

'So what about you Viper? Any progress on you and Crane?' Tigress asked.

'Uhh.. I haven't told him yet..' Viper replied.

'It's obvious that he likes you. He was staring at you the whole training session..' Water said as she had come out for air.

'He was?' Viper chuckled and blushed.

'And he lit up even more when Po pointed out, that you were the only one he could be staring at..' Tigress said.

'Yeah Viper, you just gotta tell Crane how you feel.' Water said.

'I'll try, if i get the chance today.' Viper blushed.

'That's the spirit!' Tigress replied.

'So Fire is there anyone you like?' Viper asked as Fire joint them in the bath.

'Who? Me?' Fire looked around.

'You know anyone else named Fire?' Viper chuckled.

'No... I don't have anyone like that.. And to be honest i don't really like boys...' Fire blushed.

'Ohh ok, that's why you hesitated to come in the bath with us? Because you like girls?' Tigress asked.

'Now you must think i'm weird... i'll just go..' Fire said as she was about to leave.

'No no Fire, we don't think your weird. Everyone has their own preferences.' Tigress and Viper said in unison.

'I'm sure you'll find a cute girl for yourself someday.' Tigress hugged Fire.

'Thank you Tigress, that made me feel a lot better.' Fire let out a tear.

hr

Meanwhile at Mr. Pings noodle shop.

The guys were talking.

'So your going to the beach to "relax" with Tigress?' Lee teased Po.

'Yeah, we haven't gotten any alone time after the wedding..' Po replied as he lit up like fire.

'We can tell by your face that Tigress and you talked about the mating..' The others chuckled in unison.

'Uhh yeah... I was kinda worried about it.. you know we being different species and all.' Po looked down.

'Don't sweat it bro, your gonna make her happy.' Crane said slightly punching Po in the shoulder.

'Thanks i needed that... So how about you Crane? Anything happen with Viper yet?' Po asked his avian friend.

'Uhh no, not yet... I don't have the courage to tell her my feelings.' Crane blushed.

'Wow, you and Viper?' Monkey looked jaw dropped at Crane.

'Yeah i wish.. I don't even know if she likes me..' Crane replied.

'I'm sure she does.. Or that's what i heard from Tigress.' Po chuckled.

'Really? Tigress said Viper actually likes me?' Crane asked as his face lit up.

'Yeah more or less.' Po replied.

'Man we are so getting us some girls tomorrow!' Monkey and Mantis said in unison.

As the others heard that, they started to laugh.

'Oh man.. you guys are hopeless.' Po, Lee and Crane said in unison.

'So Lee how did your last night go with Water?' Po asked with a wide grin on his face.

As Lee heard that he almost chocked on his noodles.

'Are you trying to kill me Po..?' Said Lee as he tried to keep a straight face.

'We just slept together... that's all... nothing else happened.. yep.' Lee added.

'Oh huh... So why did i hear Water moaning..?' Po asked as the others chuckled.

'Ugh you heard us.. We just had some fun.. we didn't mate if that's what your asking..' Said Lee with his face as red as Tigress' vest.

As Lee was trying to explain it to the others, they rose up and started to walk back to the Palace.

hr

As they got back to the Palace, they saw the girls getting out of the bath house. And as they joined them Po asked if the girls were hungry.

'So you girls hungry? I can go make you something if you want?' Po asked the girls as they were walking towards the barracks.

'Starving, I can help you Po.' Tigress replied.

'Sure, i don't mind the help.' Po said as they took of to the kitchen.

'You guys go on ahead, i want to talk to Viper/Crane alone.' Crane and Viper looked at eachother blushing.

'Yeah no problem, you have a nice time out here.' The others said in unison as they left Viper and Crane standing outside.

'So Crane what did you want to talk about?' Viper chuckled.

'Umm.. About my- my feelings for you Viper.' Crane blushed.

'Really, that's what i wanted to talk to you about too.' Viper chuckled as the both blushed.

'Ok you go first Viper.' Crane said.

'No you go first.' Viper said as he looked embarrassed.

'Ok I love you!' They both said in unison and chuckled.

'You do? Love me?' Both said again in unison.

As they both started to laugh, Viper pulled in for a kiss that Crane gladly excepted. After a few minutes of passion the pulled out for air and chuckled. After that Crane picked Viper up on his back and took of for a spin around the Valley.

'Isn't it beautiful like this?' Crane asked as they flew over the Valley.

'It is so beautiful up here, we must do this often..' Viper smiled and gave Crane a kiss on the cheek.

'We should probable go get you some dinner Viper, you must be starving not eating anything after breakfast?' Crane asked.

'Yeah your right, i'm starving.' Viper chuckled as they headed back towards the Palace.

As they walked in the kitchen, Viper on Cranes back blushing and leaning on Cranes neck. The others awed and congratulated them on their new relationship.
