Also, for my other story 'Unwilling Change' I need ideas for dares and truths...so PM me if you have a suggestion please! Hope you enjoy this, and this time I will be writing in a new format. So hope you like it. Oh, and take in count Tigress is about 17 and the furious five haven't formed yet.

ENJOY!

Tigress P.O.V

I actually never thought about falling in love. I thought it was rather impossible for someone like me. But how much do I actually know? I'm barely 17. Yeah, I might be smarter than some people, you should be when your father is the Grand Master of the Jade Palace. And I'm his student. He doesn't sees me as more, unfortunately. But by now I have gotten used to it. Mater Oogway knows that what I need is 'love'. But really? I don't. I just need...the sense of pride. But who am i kidding, everyone knows that after what happened with that snow leopard there is no way I will be getting that same treatment.

But I'm not complaining. I'm actually ok now...or I was...

General POV

Tigress was walking down to the village. She was supposed to get some groceries from there. Shifu had told her that maybe soon, she would be getting company from kids her age. Whatever, she actually didn't mind the loneliness.

She sighed, she took the bag of yuan she had and started counting the money she had. Not only that, but she had a kung fu scrolls in there, along with a picture of Master Shifu and Master Ooway, she didn't know why though. It was probably a birthday present from Master Oogway, who was the only one who celebrated her adoption date. She was also carrying a small book in there and a flute, she didn't quite know how to play it professionally, but she was learning.

10 Yuan. That should be enough to buy 3 bowls of noodles and some apples. She first went to the apple cart. Turns out, the apple cart goose was really nice, so she was able to get 6 apples for only 3 yuan.

She then walked to the Noodle shop that was so famous for their secret ingredient soup. She had never tasted it. She liked simple stuff, like tofu. But maybe new things could be for the best. She took out her yuan, and since she there were a lot of people, she sat down at a table by the corner and left her bag there.

"Hey, can I help you with something?" Tigress looked up from her table. A panda (dare she call cute) was standing there, greeting her with a warm smile. She smiled, something really unusual for her.

"Hi. Can I have 3 Secret Ingredient soups to go, Please?" She asked. The panda nodded towards her and ran back to the kitchen. Meanwhile, Tigress was thinking how she has not seen a panda before. Actually, she never got out much since Shifu always makes her train and she barely has time to herself. And that time she has, she uses to improve in kung fu or maybe read some scrolls she found interesting. She look back at the panda, and another smile shot across her face.

Po's POV

I thought this was just going to be like every single day of my life. Just attend and take care of the customers, and cook some noodles, and in a way, it was. It was, until I saw her. Today was rather crowded, why? I have no idea. Probably because it was sunny and a nice day to stroll around the village. The thing is, I was just going to take the orde of some family of pigs, when I spotted her. She was in a table far away from the center. She was tiger. She was beautiful. The moment I saw her, my legs started to feel numb.

I never actually had a crush on anyone before. But somehow I knew this was it. I took a deep breath and walked towards her. She was wearing a red vest with orange flowers wrapping around her. it looked really good on her. By giving her one glance, I knew she stood out from anyone. She was special, why? I have to find that out later. She was wearing simple black pants, as if she was going to practice a sport any moment.

I shook the thought and stood in front of her. I asked her for what she wanted, to my surprise, she actually smiled at me. Man, she was beautiful. I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like asking her on a date. But then I realize that a girl like her was probably already taken. I barely listened to what she ordered.

I just nodded and went back to the kitchen. How come I have never seen her around? I knew almost everyone in the Valley of Peace...well, except for the Masters who live on the Jade Palace, but still. I continued cooking while my dad served the family of pigs I was actually suppose to be with.

Once I was done, I took the three bowls of soup. I was thinking about giving her a flower, but it would be too...cliche? I don't know, it just didn't seem right. And a note? What would I write? "You are beautiful?" Nope, I do not want to seem as the kind of guy who hits on girls. I shrugged, I guess I'll just hand her the soup.

I walked there, and to my surprise, she was already looking at me. I smiled. She smiled. I could that under her orange fur, she was sort of blushing. Which made me blush too. we both chuckled. I gave her the soup and said that I hope to see her soon. Lame, I know. But she was ok with it. She gave me a warm smile, before handing me the yuans, taking the bowls of soup, and marching outside.

Did I just let her walk away like that? Did I just let the greatest girl I have ever meet in my entire life walk away like that? You bet I did. And I was feeling stupid for doing so.

Tigress POV

I was watching him cook. He was really agile in all that kind of culinary stuff. Unlike me. I had my own reputation, which was "Not-allowed-to-cook" and the servants always fear me when I stepped in the kitchen. Not my fault that I didn't know that you had to watch the rice or it would burn. And is not my fault either that the kitchen turned out to be very flammable.

Anyway, I felt kind of stalk-ish by watching him. I wish I could just turn around and mind my own business but unfortunately, the rest of me didn't got the memo. Something felt different. or actually, I felt something. He was...different, special. My heart fluttered, and suddenly, the idea of holding hands with him didn't make me mad or disgusted.

Before I knew it, he was back with me, holding the 3 bowls of soup. He caught me staring, and I felt my cheeks grow fire. I didn't know they could do that...of that I was able to do that...instincts, or feelings. He probably saw me blush, so he started blushing too... I have never felt so embarrassed in my entire life. I guess we both sensed something weird going on between us, because we both chuckled. Another thing I thought I was not capable of doing.

He gave me the soup, and I gave him the yuan. When I handed the money, my fur briefly brushed against his. I smiled to myself, and something in me wanted to cuddle against him...

'STOP IT!' I yelled to myself. But did I listened? No.

"Hope to see you again soon" he told me. he was sincere about it, I should know since I am the one working against bad guys and I constantly interviewing them... I swear that in that moment, i wanted nothing else but to giggle. GIGGLE!

My legs trembled on the inside. What is wrong with me!? I have never felt this. I shouldn't feel like this! But I did...and there was no way around it. Maybe it would simply go away.

I wanted to wave him goodbye, but doing it with soup was not exactly easy, and even less if you had to be carrying some apples in your pockets. I smiled and then left. In my trip back to the Jade palace, i had never felt so confused in my entire life. NEVER. I felt like my mind was spinning, and what frustrated me, is that I didn't know how to stop it...

Po's POV...

I didn't put attention to the rest of the customers the rest of the day. I kept thinking about her. I sighed, it was around late afternoon (About 8 or so), and I was now cleaning up the tables, my dad was so happy. Maybe because we had a really packed day. I was happy for him too, I wished I could tell him about the girl, but he seemed pretty tired to be worrying about my life. So that would be a story for later.

I took a clean piece of cloth and a small bucket of water. I started wiping the tables. I went to the one she was sitting at, at the end. As I was rubbing against the wood, i felt something on my feet. I thought it was just my imagination. But it was still real. I looked under the table, and a brown bag was there. She or one of the customers before her must have left it. or it probably slipped of the table, making it fall to the ground. I picked it up and shook the dust off. A scroll dropped out. I picked it up curiously and read it. It was a book. An interesting one for that matter.

I knew I shouldn't have done what i did next, but I did. I looked through the bag.

Ooohhhh...well, I am mixing an idea from an episode i saw with an idea of my own. So what did you think? So far so good?

-Peace out:)
