YOJEN! (did that purposely)

Red and Po began to ran towards the village. Since they were close enough, Red leaped to the nearest roof. Po followed her, close to the ground though, because unlike her, he wasn't quite flexible.

"So where are we going?" Red put her paw over his mouth.

"See that building?" He nodded, "Inside of it, people store bags of money. We'll just steal a few, two me, one you. And then we get out. Got it?" He nodded.

"Very well, I'll go in and you mostly watch out for people coming. We are going through that black alleyway" she pointed towards the alley that was a few feet in front of them.

"Lets go" she and Po began running towards it. Their steps were inaudible. They got to the alley. Some bunnies, that Red assumed were the ones supposed to be guarding the place, started strolling around the building.

"Shhhh" Tigress used the walls to help her gain strength and she got herself to the top.

"Come on" Po struggled, but mimicked her steps. And like her, he was in the top. Chief found a small entrance that led to the inside. She motioned Po to go through it. After him, she jumped inside. The bags of money where laying everywhere. She smiled.

"Grab" Po felt his heart weight more, as if the guilt was beginning to drag him down. But Red immediately took two bags (big ones) and quickly tied them up on the right side of her pants, with a thin black belt that barely stood up from her black pants.

"Ready?" She asked in a whisper. Po nodded. They were starting to climb up when some footsteps began to approach. Red perked her ears.

"Faster! " The guards barged in through the front entrance, and pointed their spears at the intruders,

"You..." they gasped "Red warrior" the shook their heads, trying to snap out of their shock,

"Stop right there!" Red laughed while Po escaped.

"You wish!" Po managed to reach the top, and Red quickly jumped into the hole and disappeared, leaving the two guards behind. Po was panting.

"Let's go, they will probably try to search us up" Red said, analyzing her surroundings. They stepped down to the alley.

"Come on, we have to-" the footsteps were now heard. And they were growing closer by the second. Po and Red tried to figure out what to do.

"The only time you come with me, this all happens" she looked around and took a deep breath.

"I hear someone over there!" A bunny yelled, and the clinging and snapping of their feet against the ground were coming towards them. With just a few seconds, Red leaned herself against the wall, took the panda's hands and pulled him closer to her. She pressed her lips against his, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Po widen his eyes, but he didn't push away from her. Her tight was against his side now, one of his hands holding it up. Red glanced to where the guards were coming.

"Oh..ughh. Nothing here, just a couple..." the bunny stated, disgusted. The guards just groaned and didn't bother looking any closer, instead they went away and continued their search in other parts.

"They might have escaped and headed to the town square!" And the guards ran the opposite direction.

Po was now resting his paw at her side, tracing her waist, up and down, enjoying the feel of her soft cloth brushing against his fingers. His lips were hungrily tasting hers, almost forgetting the real reason behind all this. Red was moaning, but when the guards were not heard anymore, she pushed him away from her, and with her arm, she cleaned her lips.

"What was that for?" he asked, his breath coming out in short grasps. She looked away and peeked into the street.

"People get uncomfortable when seeing people display signs of affection" She responded in monotone, yet her cheeks were on fire and her lips were left with a tingly sensation waving over it.

"Oh"

"Yeah" She sighed, the kiss was just supposed to be that...not making her actually' feel' something. "Let's go, the street is empty now"

She wasn't the only one confused about the kiss. Po was struggling to see why he kissed her back, why he felt in that moment that he needed her, almost as if he...harbored a feeling for her.

Red yelled mentally at herself. It would have been better if they had gotten caught, than letting herself be tortured by her own thoughts about something she caused.

The way back was calm in the sense that there were no guards in the way and that since it was now getting late, no person was wandering outside their houses. But even in a peaceful atmosphere, the tiger and the panda were having a hard time trying to keep their minds blank.

They didn't want any sort of emotions.

She was supposed to be a warrior, strong, emotionless, a warrior that was held back by nothing.

And he was supposed to give up on love. He knew that pain and suffering came mostly out of it, and that nothing could change that fact. But it felt differently with her...as if she had given it another definition, making it her own.

They got to the camp, both overwhelmed, causing silence to be their way of communication.

"How did it went Chief?" Leng asked, the camp was already set up and Chang was preparing food. Po was twiddling with his fingers, doubting if she was really going to say that she kissed him.

"It went fine. Po will hand you the two bags of money we collected" She threw one of the bags towards him, Po caught it and was going to ask her about the one she had hanging from her pants, but he preferred to remain quiet.

"You can go ahead and have dinner. I'm not hungry" she said and headed inside her tent, the one that was clearly bigger and better than the rest.

"What happened while you were there? She is acting...not like herself" Chang said, taking a seat next to Leng and grabbing some of the dumplings that were prepared. Po tried to keep his breath even, and not to remember their secret make-out session...

"Uh, nothing. She is probably tired" Po suggested, stuffing one of the dumplings on his mouth to keep words from coming out of his mouth. Chang and Leng exchanged looks.

"You sure? She is-"

"I AM SURE!" He heard himself yell. Chang and Leng widen their eyes and their hands trembled as they tried to grab their daggers.

"Good night" He stood up and began walking to the tent. Then his stomach grumbled in hunger. He marched back to where the pig and bunny where, took a plate of dumplings, and marched angrily out of there, again.

He opened up the tent right after finishing his plate of dumplings.

"Dammit! Why did-" She looked up,

"Oh. Are you sleeping, now?" She asked, trying to get her voice to be more...strict as it always is.

"Yes, why? Do you need help with something?" She shook her head,

"No. I'm very capable of doing everything by myself" She answered, crossing her arms.

"I'm not saying you are not" Po replied, with a hint of annoyance in it. Red just rolled her eyes.

"We need to talk" She approached him,

"That kiss. It meant nothing" Red had to bit her lip from contradicting herself.

"Right. Besides, why would I want to be with someone who kills people?" Po replied sarcastically, anger boiling up inside of him.

"Excuse me? Well, I wouldn't like to be with someone who hides the truth from me!"

"Look who's talking! The only girl in the world who prefers daggers instead of dresses! And who doesn't even have a real name!"

"For your information, dresses are horrible and prevent you from doing a lot of different activities. And I do have a name, maybe I just don't like it!" She said, closing the distance between them, hoping that he could see the anger in her eyes, and that he would be the one who would back down. But if she didn't know something about him, is that he never gives up.

"You are right, maybe you just wanted to dishonor a fake name"

"You are the one talking, Dragon Warrior!"

"You are so stubborn!" She yelled,

"And you are the devil!" He found himself yelling. And that was it for him, he was sure that was going to die. In less than 3 seconds, Red had him cornered, with the upper hand, and with a dagger pointing at his jugular.

"What did you just call me?" She gritted.

"I...sorry" She lowered the dagger. She bit her lip and then she darted her eyes so that she could see the green gems.

"I just thought..." she planted a soft kiss on his lips, fluttering her eyes close and then open. As soon as Po felt her lips, they were gone. His hands didn't even have enough time to grab her waist or to cup her cheeks,

"I thought wrong. Sorry" She turned around and left him on the corner where his bed was situated. Her dagger was laying on the floor. She blew on the candle that light up the whole tent, and headed towards her bed. The two parallel beds both had a small candle, so even if they couldn't see the whole picture, they could see each other.

Po could only watch her lay down, cover herself in a blanket, and close her eyes, her back facing him. His heart was beating fast and his hands were trembling. Part of him felt guilty, she wasn't the devil...at least not to him. But did that erased all of her other crimes? He laid at his own bed, trying to close his eyes, but his mind wouldn't budge. He couldn't stop thinking about her...if she was too cold to feel...was it possible that he was the exception?

That night I slept thinking about every single aspect about her. About how her eyes looked at me. About how vulnerable she seemed when we argued. About how her soft lips caressed mine. And how...real she was. As if the world couldn't match up to her. I thought about what she said. What I said. Being the devil. She certainly was not. Because the devil had no heart, and she did. Because she seemed to care about me, in some sort of way. Because she cared about what I thought of her. Red was hurting at that point, and I knew I was the cause of it. Because I rejected her, I did the worst thing that someone can do. Not to reject the person's love, but to reject their person, telling them that who they are, is not good enough...for anyone. But what made this different, is that I was the one who did that, me of all people, me. I thought I could be different, and she thought so too. I think that's what she meant. That maybe I would give her a chance, to show me that she is not all that meets the eye. But it will need some time, she will need some time. And I should have understood that. But instead, I went on, and hurt her. And to add to my list of problems, is that I let her fall, when I was falling for her.

OMG! DO you feel it guys!? Anyway, don't forget that one bag of money that 'Red' still has, it will...come in handy later on! Hope you like it and review!

-Peace out:)
