Chapter 5- Indian Tigress

Tigress looked at her outfit, smoothing the skirt for the hundredth time since she put it on. Today they were meeting with a Master Amar, an old friend of Shifu's from India. Master Amar had sent her an outfit a few weeks before his visit, and Shifu insisted that she wear it.

It was a yellow and red Langa oni that had delicate floral embroidery at the bottom and at the edges of the sleeves and mini mirrors sewn on the skirt. She also had added piles of brightly colored bangles that clanged together as she moved her arms. Her feet were missing their normal shoes, exposing her feet.

Tigress's ear twitched as the door to her room slid open. "Tigress, are you…" The question trailed off there.

"Yes?" she asked, putting a stack of bangles on each of her wrists. She turned to face Shifu and smiled. He was staring at her wide eyed. "Do I really look that terrible?" she asked.

"No, no! You look… fine. Really." She snickered at her boyfriend's embarrassment.

"So how warm is it outside?" she asked.

"You could fry a dumpling on the ground," he answered.

She groaned. "Great. Now I know I'm going to faint in this. I'm already getting dizzy," she said, wiping her brow.

"Well if you do, you'll still look stunning," he purred, pulling her down to his level.

"Stunning? I thought you said I only looked fine," she argued. He chuckled.

"An extreme understatement," he whispered, pressing their lips together.

She smirked. "If I do faint, do you promise to give me mouth to mouth?" she asked seductively, pulling him into her arms and running a finger down his side, liberating the smallest bit of her claw as she went.

"Hm… well, you know you don't have to faint for me to give you mouth to mouth."

Not being able to stand the tension anymore, she pressed their lips together fervently. "Master Amar will be here soon. We should go," Shifu said, pulling away from the lip lock.

"He can wait," she said nonchalantly as she grazed the inner tips of his ears with her lips.

"It would be very rude of us," Shifu added, pulling away from her again.

"Shifu, last time I checked, Master Amar is not your girlfriend. He can wait."

"Tigre—ohhh!" She had untied his robe, nuzzling his chest and kissing his stomach.

"Want to wait now?" she whispered to him, kissing his jaw line. He nodded, trembling a little.

He got over his shaking and traced her cheek and down her arm. "It's too hot for such heavy clothes. Want me to help you get out of your dress?"

A/N: Ok, in case you're wondering what a Langa oni looks like, there's a wikipedia entry about them. Just search "Langa oni" on the main page.
And I found out what the pipes that shoot fire and that are at the end of the obstacle course in the training hall are called! It's called the Fiery Field of Danger. Seriously! It's on Nickelodeon's website if you don't believe me, they have a whole Kung Fu Panda thing on there.
