Here's where Tigress does her best to forgive Max and his easy forgiveness seemed to put her on edge, but ends up accepting it anyway because it's part of his personality.

Chapter 22: Forgiveness and Apologies

Meanwhile, Max was sitting up on his bed and talking with Blaze about his reasons on why he stood up for his dragon friend in the midst of what just happened and as he explained it to him, Blaze could tell that Max is not like any other kid on earth or in this planet and he has much mad respect for the tiger cub and his selfless act of courage.

"...and ever since then, I've sworn to myself that I would never let anyone tell me what I can or can't do because I know in the end, I'll accomplish it. And I'll go as far as to defend my friends or family if I have to." Max stated.

"Wow...you really inspire me, Max." Blaze said, blown away.

Max smiled in response to this and he looked at Blaze and said, "Thanks for saving me."

"Hey...you helped me out when I didn't need any and I just returned the favor for you." Blaze said, smiling.

Just then, the door opens and they turned around to see a very guilty and fearful Tigress coming in the room and the first thing Blaze did was growl at her and he stared at her by asking, "What are you doing here? Giving my buddy another round 2?"

Tigress didn't even bother to say anything because she knew he was referring to what she had done to him and she lowered her head in shame and said, "I guess I deserve those words you said."

"And then some." Blaze stated.

Max turned to Blaze for a second to diffuse the situation and he can obviously see Tigress feeling completely guilty for what she has done and he said to him, "Take it easy on her, Blaze. I think we've been hard enough on her for the both of us."

Blaze could tell that Max isn't all that mad at Tigress for what she did to him, but he was still very much mad at her for nearly killing his tiger friend and he wasn't gonna let her off the hook and Tigress sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Max...can I talk to you, privately?"

"Hey, anything you can say to Max, you can say it right in front of me. But in the case you're gonna mess with him again...you don't want to see my bad side again." Blaze said, with a hint of warning in his voice.

"Blaze...it's okay." Max said, gently.

Blaze looked at Max once again and Max was gonna make sure that everything's all cool here and he trusted Max enough to let him have his time with Tigress. However, he looked at her with a very serious look on his face and lets out a low growl as he left the room and afterwards, Max looks at Tigress for a second and he said, "What can I do for you?"

Tigress couldn't even bear to look at him even after what she did to him and it was very typical Max...he never got mad or furious at her or even yelled at her. She just said, "Max...I'm so sorry for what I have done to you. I just let every part of my jealousy and my anger took control of me and I almost took your life because of that mistake. I totally understand that you hate me and that I deserve to be punished for it."

"Tigress...you know I can't do that. And you know I could never hate you. Blaze might hate you...but not me." Max replied.

"Why not? You stood up for that dragon in front of me and I nearly killed you! In front of the entire Valley that I swore to protect and yet I let my pride consume me because of my bitter jealousy! It was wrong of me to do that and you have the audacity to say that you could never hate me?!" Tigress exclaimed.

Max remained calm through this while Tigress tensed up with guilt and remorse, but the look on her face became a mixture of fear, sorrow and furious mixed in and replied, "Because there's nothing you could do to hate me anyways. But...I guess I should be the one to forgive you. I shouldn't have said those things I said to you. I was just defending my friend and to show that we can't always be afraid of dragons. I didn't mean to humiliate you in front of everyone and for that, I'm the one who should be sorry."

"What are you talking about?! You had every right to say those things to me! For you to say you forgive me?! I'm up here asking for your forgiveness and instead you just said there's nothing to forgive?! Come on, Max! I've done every single thing to you all those years and all you've ever done is forgive me so easily no matter what! I don't deserve your forgiveness! Yell at me, insult me, say something rude to me, do something! I deserve that rather than being forgiven!" Tigress exclaimed, almost in tears but also showing aggressional anger.

"I can't do that, Tigress. I can still forgive you. That's all I can do." Max replied, calmly.

"HOW?! How can you possibly forgive me after all I've done to you?! TELL ME ONE REASON WHY YOU FORGIVE ME OF ALL MY STUPID MISTAKES! TELL ME NOW!" Tigress roared, pounding her fist to the wall hard.

Tigress was obviously panting heavily and she's still waiting for Max's answer to come forward and Max replied, "Because I can. What good would it do to not forgive you?"

Tigress still didn't understand this kid because here she was, almost taking his life because of her blinded anger and even after all this, Max has already forgiven her and it was hard for her to take and before Tigress could say anything, Shifu came in and said, "Just accept it, Tigress. Max has always forgiven you and this time is no different."

"But Shifu..." Tigress started off, but got cut off by a hug from Max.

"No buts. Just accept it." Shifu replied.

Tigress didn't know what else to say and after she saw Max hugging her waist, she slowly places her hands around him and hugged him back while breaking down in tears and she said, "I'm so sorry, Max."

She kept repeating 'I'm sorry' a couple of times and Max nuzzled her and said, "It's okay, Tigress."

Most of the masters were still surprised that Max forgave Tigress so easily, but not everyone was that surprised at all and Monkey asked, "How can this kid not hold a grudge against Tigress?"

"It's simple, Monkey...Max has already been through a lot in his life, but the last thing he would do is just hold it against someone forever and make them suffer for it. Max would always give them another chance...even though some of them might mess it up." Musaki answered.

"The kid's got a pure heart." Mantis stated.

Blaze could see that example showing right in front of him and if he's big enough to forgive Tigress, maybe he can do the same as well. Suddenly, Summer pops in the hallway and she said, "Arizona! You gotta come!"

"What is it, Summer?" asked Arizona.

"What's wrong?" asked Musaki.

Summer panted heavily and looked at Arizona with a serious expression on her face and replied, "It's Sierra."

What's going on with Sierra? Didn't expect it to happen in the end, huh? Stay tuned to see what happens with Sierra!
