Before I start the epilogue I want to thank everybody who favorited and/or reviewed this. I also want to apologize for the depressing cliffhanger. "Always leave them wanting more", as the saying goes.

I also want to give some credits for the dance I did for TiPo. Somes moves were inspired by the "Fire Nation Dance" from the main Avatar series (I just saw a video of it I'm not a fan of the series. I do like it's oriental elements and the elements in general XD). The ending pose was inspired by the ending pose of Pearl and Garnet's first fusion from Steven Universe

I hope you enjoy this ending. Remember, I open for constructive criticism or reviews in general please. I also apologize in advance for the possible typos, punctuations errors, and missing words. I'll try to edit the chapters as much as I can if I see alot of them.

Ok! Now onto the chapter.

Epilogue:

She was running, The hurting tiger was running from her friend, running from what could be, and most of all she's running to her temporary hut that she shared with Crane, Mantis, Monkey, and Viper. Before she could even get half way though a small red and white, fluffy thing lands right in front. Tigress is able to stop herself before she could crashes into it. Immediately, the tiger master recongnized the "thing" as none other than her grandmaster, Shifu.

As both Tigress both stand up from their stances Shifu wears a nonchalant smile as if nothing just gone terribly wrong. As for Tigress, she does her best to bring back her stone face to stop her hurting throat and to stop her body to have the chance of looking foolish in front of her master. So while holding his wooden staff the red panda asks, " Leaving so soon"? The tiger master didn't know how to respond to that. So she tries to change the subject with a question.

"Master Shifu what are you doing here?"

The red panda master briefly chuckles at Tigress attempt to change the subject. She wasn't going to get out this that easily though." Same as you. I'm hiding from a chance of endless affection. However it seems only one of us were insane enough to run away from it.", says Shifu still in a nonchalant matter. "I'm not running away!", Tigress says in a stern voice and a rise in volume a little. It wasn't that loud but enough for her to stop herself to respect her master. "I am merely departing to go back to the Valley of Peace. Surely the villagers will start to worry when they notice nobody is at the Jade Palace or out patrolling". With an arched eyebrow and slightly changes his nonchalant demeanor to his stern expression but not fully and rhetorically asks, "Is that so, well that seems rather odd of you to suddenly make that decision right after that rather romantic song started don't you think'"?

"Darn! He saw that!", Tigress says in her own thoughts in a frustrated manner for she was hoping Shifu was to busy trying to hide from the old panda then continues to rhetorically ask, "Not to mention leaving without a proper farewell is no way to treat somebody you claim to be your "friend" ".

The orange tiger tries to move slowly around the red panda master as she tells him, " I'm going to leave a note for Po and with all due respect this is none of your con-CERN"! Shifu saw what Tigress was trying to do and pushes her with his staff back in front of him before she could even completely finish her sentence.

"As a matter of fact this concerns me quite deeply.", says Shifu giving up the nonchalant demeanor completely and is fully has a stern look on his face. "And I'm not going to get out of your way until you talk about this with Po."

Shifu quickly moves one of his legs back into a kung fu stance showing that he is willing to fight the tiger for this. Seeing this Tigress does the same though it surprised her what lengths the red panda is willing to take.

"I don't want to fight you Tigress but you leave me no other choice.", says Shifu as a warning to her.

"The feeling is mutual master Shifu."

With that their battle commences. The first strike came from Tigress as she tries to round house kick Shifu. This of course didn't work as the red panda jumps in the air. The tiger was counting on that though as she swipes Shifu away midair with her left arm quickly to the side and runs forward before Shifu came back to the ground. The red panda ends up landing just fine with the help help of his wooden staff. When he got back his bearings he looks to where the striped feline is running and sprints to her. Tigress knew eventually Shifu will catch up to her and begins preparing to hear his tiny footsteps as soon as he is near her. With the help of the bamboo and trees surrounding him, Master Shifu is able to catch up to the quick striped feline easier. In almost no time at al Shifu lands in front of Tigress in a similar way he did when he was trying to get Po not to leave the Jade Palace the first time. Like the time before, Tigress is able to stop in front of her red panda master on time.

Immediately their battle recommences as fast as they repositions themselves. Tigress knew what Shifu is trying to do.

"I know what you're trying to do.", says Tigress as she dodges the attacks of the red panda's stick (even though Shifu would never call it that). "You intend to stall me long enough for Po to catch up so I will have no choice but to talk to him." She then asks him rhetorically as she does a swipe/block motion when the staff gone towards her again, " Have you considered that maybe he doesn't want to look for me?"

"Tigress, you know as well as I do how ridiculous that notion sounds.", Bluntly put by the old red panda after he saves himself from bad landing after Tigress' "Tahlia Leap". That specific move was basically a high back flip with a kick. While the master is distracted brushing off his landing since he couldn't completely save himself the orange tigress tries to flee again probably skipping the idea of the note for Po to save time. Sadly for Tigress, Shifu caught to her again. She knew since Shifu found her this would turn into a lost cause. She had to keep trying for herself... for him.

Shifu finally speaks up again and asks the running tiger, "Why don't you just work things out with the panda"?With a ferocious growl and a groan she exclaims" Rrargh, because I won't be able to resist it anymore!"

"Huh, resist what?" Shifu thought to himself. With this he becomes more frustrated and confused. So he shouts out this question in a demanding only a master ... or a father could have, "A true warrior never runs away from her problems! Have I raised a coward?!" The old grandmaster could hear the sharp rumbling of the ground as th female tiger makes a sharp stop. Tigress stands up but she doesn't face her master yet but Shifu must of gotten to her. He assumed it was because of him using the word "coward".

"Raised?" The tiger whispers to herself. The striped feline quickly turns around to face Shifu with a fuming look on her face, "Raised!" She takes a fews steps closer to the small panda and looks down upon to make sure he is listening good. " You may have provided me shelter and trained me until my bones cracked but don't you dare act like you did anything beyond that!"

"I am exactly the way you taught me, a strong warrior who only knows how to fight for her country and die for the ones she love." She turns to stop facing him and hold her arms as her ears lower in sadness. " At what cost though?", She asked without expecting an answer." I was never taught how to show somebody love without dying in the process. So now here I am leaving the only one that ever came so close to me so he can live a happier life in the long run and I can go back to what I do best. Fight and then eventualy die on the battlefield because that's the only way I know how to love somebody. I maybe coward by leaving, but you reaped what you've sown master." She couldn't take standing up anymore so she sits down on the grassy ground, holds her legs for comfort, and drops her head to her knees in frustration. She wasn't going to cry but she was tired, tired of everything. What she would do to have Po with her right now but she couldn't do that because if she did she wouldn't be able to control her "selfishness" anymore. She wouldn't be able to resist telling him to come back home with he- er... them.

Shifu lowers his ears in regret, he was speechless. What was there to say? She was right. For years he has molded Tigress to be the "perfect warrior" to make up for the son he lost. In the process he stripped her away from any positive emotion she was suppose to experience with him. He can count all on one hand how many times his has said he is "proud of her". No wonder she doesn't know how to love or let anybody love her. It was only a year ago when he changed for the better and finally found inner peace and he still hasn't told the tiger personally that he was always proud of her. I suppose he just assumed she already knew and that everything was fine. Oh, how blind he was that old fool! What about now though? Was there still time to fix this? Will he be able to convince his student to stay and talk to Po. It could be risky but he had to try for Po, for her, and for himself. Slowly but surely the old red panda walks up behind his striped daughter, puts his tiny paw on her shoulder, and sighs.

Tigress lifts her head up and turns her head to find her master right beside her. Confused, she waits for him to say something, anything. Shifu finally speaks up with a melancholic tone, " I realize now we have unresolved issues we have yet to fix." He pauses to figure out what to say after 20 or so years of neglect. He had to choose them correctly for one wrong sentence could make her hate him, if she didn't already. "I promise we'll discuss them as soon we're home, but now it's not the time."

"Huh?", Still a perplexed Tigress asks. the very fact that Shifu admitting that they had problems amazed her. Even with Shifu's inner peace their relationship was still far from "father and daughter".

Shifu continues on with his speech, "For years I've treated you like a disgrace, setting up the highest pedestals that you couldn't possibly reach, and it was all to protect you from turning you into the monster the citizens thought you would become. Or so, that's what I told myself." Tigress could feel the pain Shifu was going through admitting all of this. It was heartbreaking.

"The truth is I wasn't giving you the recognition you deserved was because I was afraid to let somebody in my life again. Taking a chance to let my heart be broken again. I was the coward and now history is about to repeat itself because of it." The small kung fu master lowers his head to try to get s hold of himself while the striped feline remains there waiting for him to finish.

Shifu lifts his head back up with a stern expression.

" If there's anything I've learned when I found inner peace is that love is not just willing to die for your significant other. You need to live for them as well. You can't just shut them out thinking that they're better off without you. That only hurts you and your loved ones. You can't hold whatever your feeling inside because knowing that they never knew is far worse than telling them. At least then you will never have to say "what if". Most importantly, you need to give them a chance to love you back, even if they don't accept. The feeling that they know that you are always there for them unconditionally out weighs the feeling of rejection. It hurts, I won't lie but life goes on and you can choose to shut everybody out because of one rejection or continue to love them and let others love you." Swiftly, Shifu grabs one of Tigress' paws with both his tiny paws, looks straight into her eyes as she does his, and says, "Please, don't make the same mistakes I made!

Shifu looks away, lets go of Tigress paw, and then picks up his staff as he slowly starts to leave. Before he departs he looks back to the tiger and ends with these words, "I won't fight you anymore. I just hope you think about what I said and take a chance with Po." With that the red panda was gone and the striped feline was left with a lot to think about. "Take a chance with Po"? What a strange way to put it. She didn't dwell on it though for she had to make her decision. As her choices weigh on her the tiger stands up and brushes off whatever debri that landed on her. What will she do? Will she continue to leave or get this off her chest?

"Tigress! Tigress!", Unfortunately the female tiger doesn't have the time to make her decision thoroughly as she hears the familar voice calling out to her. It was now or never, so with a gulp she goes towards the voice to get it over with. Instantly she sees the panda's back in front of her. The panda was none other than and also was th voice calling out to her as he continuse to do so one more time. The black and white bear then turns around and his face immediately brightens up as Tigress awkwardly waves at him.

"There you are!", shouts Po as he speed walk to the awkward feline. His smile immediately fades away as he remembers why they are here in the first place. Worryingly the panda asks, "What's wrong Tigress? Why were you all like not wanting to dance anymore and this is for my own good and whatnot?"

Tigress didn't know what to say so all she could do is look to the ground and rub her arm. What could you say to the friend that you almost planned to never see again? Po tries to ask what was the problem. "Is it because you didn't like the song, I know it was kind of slow bu-?"

"It wasn't the song!", Says Tigress finally speaking up while letting go of her arm. "It was what the song represented." Po didn't get it at all. All he could respond is, "What?" Tigress continues explaining to the confused bear, " Slow, calm music is generally used to set up a romantic setting and they instantly started playing that after our "little dance". That song was intentionally playing as a tribute to us." At first Po still didn't get it. He thought about it for a few seconds then like a brick it hits him. So he blushes not that it could be because of the fur and then stutters, " Th-that's crazy! Even if that was true and they did it on purpose who cares what they think?"

"Normally, I wouldn't.", Tigress replies. "But if any possible suitors for you thought we had something they would be to intiminated to talk to you because of me."

"My arranged marriage with MeiMei didn't work out so I don't think there's any other in the village that is my "perfect match" anymore.", say Po trying to rebuttal her claim.

"Just because MeiMei didn't work out doesn't mean there's not any other panda that is willing to love you as much as her and I refuse to be the one that gets in the way of the chance of a family and cubs of your own."

" Well maybe I don't want cubs if it means I have to have with somebody out of obligation!" says the panda starting to get a little annoyed.

" Then you court the suitor before you make such a big decision as marriage!", says the tiger getting annoyed as well. "You're hiding something from me", Po asks suddenly still looking like a little kid in timeout. Tigress trying act like she is hiding nothing crosses her arms, puts on a stern looks, and asks, "What are you talking about Po?"

"Oh don't play dumb with me! If you really wanted girls to still think I'm single you or I could just tell them I'm single. Not run away from me just because I wanted to dance to some stupid slow song with you. What aren't you telling me"? Tigress didn't answer, she turn her back to Po not wanting to face the truth with him. Po didn't know what to do. Once Tigress was set on not telling something, she usually sticks to it. Unless...

"Whoosh!", That was the sound that the panda's fist made as it moves towards the tiger master. Tigress of course blocks the punch but Po continues to throw more punches. The striped kung fu master is able to block everything the panda throws at her. Soon she begins to throwing some punches and kicks of her own. Po stays determined in the sparring in hope this will get her to talk. It always worked for Tigress with him and now it was his turn. Tigress than pins him to the tree with his front to the tree. While his face still pointing to the tree his asks, "All I want to do is help you, why won't you tell me?" By some miracle the panda was able to escape the pinning. While sparring still Tigress answers the panda," If I tell you nothing will be the same between us. I just want you to be happy."

"Well you're not doing a good job because you not telling me is hurting me, both ways.", the panda points out as the tiger continues to conceal it all in.

"You think I don't know that!", angrily says tigress.

"Then just tell me.", says a grumpy Po getting tired of this nonsense.

"Tell me!"

"Tell me!", with Po makes his last punch which misses the secretive tiger. Po felt hopeless, this is way harder for him than it was for Tigress. He fell to his knees on th soft grassy ground. Tigress notices this and get out of her sparring stance and worries about her friend. With one last ray of hope of helping Tigress he begs with wet, jade eyes, "Please, I just want you to be happy."

It was rare for her to see the panda almost to the point of tears. He usually kept all his sadness to himself not wanting to burden anybody with his problems. She hated seeing him like this. Needless to say it only made matters worse that she was the source of his sadness. She couldn't take anymore, all the pressure, the possibility of him not coming back to the Jade Palace, and trying to be happy for him even though she's dying inside. It was time. Time to let go, open her stone walls, and let somebody see her heart for once in her miserable life. Tigress fell down to her knees as well. To Po the sound felt like the earth shook when it was only a small pound in reality. Po was in complete shock, Tigress was finally about to give in.

Feeling vulnerable Tigress starts with a stutter, " I-I never wanted you to stay here! I'm happy for you that you found your family but I couldn't stand the fact you thought of staying here. I was dying inside at the thought I may never see you again because of that and the arranged marriage but I couldn't tell you because I wanted to still be happy for you. I didn't want to be selfish.", try as she may she couldn't do it, she finally let one tear roll down her face. "The truth is I want you to go back home with me. You're important to me and I can't imagine my life without you by my side."

The striped master takes a deep breath to calm herself done from the threat of more tear. "Although I accept if you want to stay here. I don't want to shut you out of my life. I will support you anyway I can and I'll cherish every chance I get to see you.", Tigress looks at Po wait for a response but not for long and and says lastly, "So now you know the truth, I only hope you don't think less of me."

Without a single warning two big, black, furry arms wrap around Tigress' middle section as well as her arms. In an instant the sad tiger's body is carressing the panda's body. It's warm and comforting like Po himself. Tigress couldn't help but blush under her fur at the moment. "Thank you Tigress, you mean a lot to me too.", Po tells Tigress as he whispers in her ear. "You don't have to worry about me leaving you ever. I'd have to be a complete idiot to leave someone as awesome you alone." This makes the tiger smile but is also leaves her confused.

So she break up the hug and goes back to her space and asks,"What about your choice to stay here in the panda village or not you never made your decision?" As the two warriors both stand up the panda warrior paw meets his face as he shouts, " Oh that's right I never told you!"

" Tell me what Po?", says Tigress in a serious tone not liking where this is going. Catching on that tone Po nervously answers, " Well uh you see, I kind of made my decision of choosing to go back to the Jade Palace a little while ago."

"How a "little whille" ago?", Tigress says sternly really not liking where this is going. Po's voice slowly shrinks as he says, "A little bit before we danced!"

"What!", Tigress rightfully shouts. She then proceeds to punch the panda arm closest to her. " You idiot! Have it ever crossed your mind to tell me this before we started this whole mess?"

"Ouch!", the panda's reaction to having his arm punched by "Ms. no feeling in paws". While rubbing his arms the bear explains, "That's what I was going to do but then you went full festival backstory on me and I wanted to dance with you. I just forgot in all the excitement."

"Don't make this my fault!"

Po waves on paws in defense for the other one is connected to a sore arm as he says,"I'm not, I'm not! For what it's worth I don't regret any of this." Tigress begins to growl, the panda was walking on thin ice. "Let me explain! out of everything that has happened after the dance is it really all that bad?" Tigress starts to ponder this for his sake. "I mean seeing you cry wasn't fun but even that is a good thing. We both opened up to each other and you know now I'm always going to be there for you even when you're sad and stuff. You're never going to get rid of me even if you try, and I've seen you try a lot heheh!"

Tigress couldn't stay mad at him for long. Maybe this was a blessing in disguise after all? "Perhaps you're right Po. You maybe an annoying son of a Hun but you always seem to bring a smile back to my face.", she says with a teasing smirk.

"Now don't compliment too much, we don't want to boost that ego of mine!", says the panda with well-meaning sarcasm. The female feline suddenly decides to hug the male ursa, just simply because she wants to. A bit shocked at first but Po quickly replies by hugging her as well. They let go at the same time with an expression that says they aren't sure what to do next. Po is the first to speak breaking the awkward silence. "Sooo, now that we know that we mean a lot to each other what do we do now?", Po asks.

Tigress didn't know what to say to the panda." I don't know. I suppose we can try to do dance-fu tai-chi style if you want to that is?", Tigress replies. Surprised, the black and white bear replies, "Really, are you sure you're up for it now?"

"Yes I'm positive, although I'm pretty sure all the songs are done by now so it's not going to be as exciting.", answers the brown and orange wild cat. Po smirks however as he comes up with an idea. "Don't worry master Tigress, the dragon warrior has got this", says a confident Po. Tigress raises an tiger stripe acting as an eyebrow in confusion. Her confusion instantly disappears when he hears Po humming. She thinks of stopping him but brushes it off immediately when she hears that the panda is not actually a bad singer. With that they start the tai-chi inspired dance.

Po starts of the dance with the technique he uses for inner peace. Tigress then grabs both his hands and twirls with them which makes the panda twirl as well. Next, the duo begin a waltz-inspired move. Po stops humming which the tiger notices. Po begins to talk to Tigress. "Hey, I need to tell you something.", says the panda a bit shy-like.

"Proceed.", replies the curious tiger.

"Well, you know that I ended the marriage with MeiMei already. However, it wasn't because I didn't love her.", Tigress wasn't sure where he was going with this. Po continues on though. "I called it off because I already liked somebody else.", now she could see where he was going with this. That was definitely unexpected and quick. It didn't stop the flow of the dance but it definitely slowed it down a bit. What is she to do? She didn't expect a confession at all. I suppose being so open tonight made him a bit more confident. Well it was now or never.

"I suppose it's safe to say I may have fallen for someone as well", Tigress willingly admits. "Well I hope he's able to catch you", Po replies jokingly. As if destiny were a playful trickster the clumsy panda found a little hole in the ground just big enough for his foot and steps in it. Needless to say Po fell backwards onto the grassy ground and drags Tigress with him. Po is okay, he had worse falls. Tigress is okay as well for she landed on Po's plush body. Thinking about what Po said before the fall Tigress teasingly comments, "I can catch myself but he makes a nice landing spot." All Po could do is laugh at the tigers joke while she gets off of him as she quietly laughs as well. They continue to laugh for a few more seconds, not because the joke was that funny but the fact that they were just they were so close to each other and nothing could break that bond. They immediately stop to breath which leaves them to be silent and look at one another with half open eyes. As they continue to longingly and slightly awkwardly look into each other's eyes, both of them knew what they wanted to do next. Is it too forward though? Whether it is or not didn't matter the panda and tiger slowly close the gap between each other.

"Just one peck and done! I lived a good life.", Po mentally says to himself as he tries to rationalize what he is about to do.

"This is foolish! He's so innocent and probably doesn't even know what I'm doing.", Says Tigress in her mind as she is reconsidering what she is doing. It utimately fails in her blossoming adoration for the dragon warrior . "Well he's about to find out.", The tiger mentally comments as the panda and her move closer and closer. One of them with comically puckered up lips while they both close their eyes. Finally their lips press together. Each of them keep telling themself to back up but neither of them move. Po can't help but feel giddy, his tiny tail is wagging and his face smiling which almost broke the kiss. Tigress put her paw on her cheek which calmed the eager panda down a bit and made their sweet kiss deeper as well as a bit more passionate. It only gets more passionate as Po wraps his big arms around the tiger's slender neck. They were so into the connnection they were sharing it is as if they were the only two beings in the universe and they had an undying energy like the yin and yang. Unfortunately, all good things must come to the end. Even the dragon warrior and master Tigress needed to breath. So they release themselves from their grapse to get that much needed air and to cool off with a nice night breeze. When their bodies stopped begging for air Po continues to look at Tigress but with a teasing grin while she raises an nonexistent eyebrow.

"What?", asks the tiger with a chuckle. Po chuckles at the question, pokes the striped feline's stomach, and replies teasingly, " Yoouuu like me!" Not wanting to let him get away with that comment Tigress pins the cocky panda to the ground and starts tickling his stomach determinedly. Po had no choice but to laugh for his punishment. Before he can warn Tigress that his is going to pee they both hear something. Thankfully, this made the teasing tiger stop the panda's tickle torture. The sound that they heard sounded like somebody just fell off of something which immediately made the tiger and panda suspicious. So they quickly stood up to a battle stance. However, they soon lower their defenses a little when they saw that they being looks familar. The being got closer and they instantly could tell that the mysterious creature is MeiMei rubbing the dust off her dress. their guards completely came done as Po asks surprised, "MeiMei, what are you doing here?"

"Oh uh, I was just you know out for a jog. Really good for the cardio and other bodily functions...", MeiMei answers awkwardly. Po and Tigress weren't buying it at all. The female panda immediately comes clean after seeing their disapproving eyes and Tigress' crossed arms.

"Ok! I slipped and fell after trying to get a closer look while I was spying on you!"

In the nick of time the male panda and female tiger eyes became as big as dinner plates. "How much did you see?", Po anxiously asked.

"Just from the dance to the cute little tickle fight."

"Are the others...", Tigress almost asks until MeiMei cut her off.

"Oh don't worry about that! Grandmaster Shifu told the other masters not to disturb you two before they could have a chance to help. I'm not a kung fu master nor did Shifu see me so I got away with coming here."

It seemed a bit far-fetched that Shifu would miss somebody but she didn't see the very emotional part so it was still safe. There's still one more thing they had to discuss.

"Oh by the way, you're secret is safe with me. I'll let you tell the others you're courting when you're.", says MeiMei which gives Po and Tigress a relieved smile. "Thank you MeiMei, I appreciate it.", says Tigress.

"Oh guys, I finally know what I want to do besides ribbon dancing!", says MeiMei excitedly.

"Okay, what is it?", asks Po as he raises a nonexistent eyebrow.

" Thanks to you guys finally hooking up it's inspired me to become a wedding planner. I mean I have all this wedding stuff I'll never use and I always loved seeing true love blossoming and becoming official. I want to be to one to helps those newly engaged couples. So yeah, thanks for inspiring me." Po couldn't help but be happy for his exfiance. "You're welcome, hey I actually know a soothsayer from Gongmen city, I could totally help you get that career", says the helpful panda. Suddenly MeiMei forms big starry eyes and hold her big cheeks with excitement as she shouts, "Really? That would be amazing!" Suddenly the excitable female panda grabs the two warriors by her paws and runs, "Come on, lets go back. I love to talk

about it!"

Eventually MeiMei gets tired from running while pulling the two awkward animal along. She lets go of them and waves them to come follow her. When MeiMei has her energy, Tigress comes to her with her stern expression and say, "MeiMei I'm happy you found your calling in life but you spy on me and Po again I'll knock you out."

"And I'll let her.", says Po adding to the threat. All Mei Mei did is gulp at that moment, she would really have to be more careful the next time she spies on them or just not do it whatever comes first. The tension eventually disappeared and Po moves closer to Tigress so he can speak to her with more sentiment."Hey", says the panda trying to get her attention. It works as the tiger looks at him with a small half smile."Thanks for giving me a chance to dance with you." With a warm tender smile Tigress replies, " A wise master once told me that love is not just about being willing to die. It is also willing to live too."

"I'll be sure to remind you that when you take a near-death experience for me again", says Po in a joking yet sort of serious manner. Tigress shoves his arm with her arm for that comment, "We shall see dragon warrior." Tigress grabs the panda's paw while walking while Po takes this chance to kiss the tiger's cheek since MeiMei is too busy leading the way in front. It surprises Tigress at first but she appreciates it. It might take her awhile to be used to this kind of loving affection but she will definitely enjoy learning to. she will most certainly need to talk to Po about some groundrules for their new relationship.

Meanwhile somewhere on top of a very long bamboo stalk sits a very balanced red panda. It is of course Master Shifu. All that Shifu could do is smile of his adopted daughter's new found love. All he could say is, "I'm proud of you Tigress."

"A ha! I knew you were up here!", says a new but familar voice. The red panda was unfazed though for the voice was none other than crane flying above the bamboo.

"Ah Crane, so nice to see you.", says the red panda master smirking. Crane on the other hand is a bit iffed and confused.

"I mean no disrespect master but isn't this exactly what you told us not to do?", asks a still flying avian. "No I told you and the others not to interupt Po and Tigress because they needed to figure things out for themselves. This is completely different."

"Really?", asks Crane not really buying it.

"This is called keeping your warriors pure so I don't have cut off a certain somebody's certain "tender" part. Why else do you think I let MeiMei spy on them?"

"What?", asks Crane now even more confused and a bit scared. Shifu just waves one of his paws and replies, "Nevermind, fly us back to the festival. That way you can still have some time with Mei Ling and be there when Po's explains the good news.

Still confused, Crane follows his master's order and soar back to the festival area. Eventually everybody found out the good news and was happy to return home with their Po. Normally when Tigress comes back home to the Jade palace from a mission she would unpack,

meditate, and go back to her usual training. However, Po had a better idea after unpacking. For once in her life she didn't regret skipping a day of training.

The end.

|0=}-{=0 | 0=}-{=0 | 0=}-{=0 | 0=}-{=0 | 0=}-{=0| 0=}-{=0|

Well that's the end, I hope you liked it. I wished I could of finished it before KFP3 but what can you do. I hope it is everything you have hoped for.

By the way if you did get the "tell me" thing is call back to the Tai Lung and Shifu fight scene when Tai Lung said that.
