Early that morning Tigress walked into the kitchen before anybody else has awaken only to find Tora already making breakfast for herself and Tigress.

"I had a hunch you'd also be an early riser." Tora replied with a smile as she set both bowls on the table.

"Thanks." Tigress replied. "So... What are our parents names?"

"Our father is called An and our mother, Wen. Father has a few scars because of the fights he gets involved in..."

"What fights?" Tigress asked.

Tora sighed, "The conflict between the white tigers and orange can be gruesome...
Some white tigers who believe they're 'superior' treat us tan tigers disrespectfully and bully us. Baba is stubborn and doesn't stand by if he sees a group of pales ganging up on a tan and has to get himself involved, It normally results in a fight where my dad never wins. He thinks he's younger than he really is." Before Tigress could reply someone beat her to it.

"The age of a person does not defy their strength or weakness." said Shifu, who had been standing by the door the whole time.

"Sorry I didn't mean to be offensive!" Tora apologised. "But that's the difference... You're a Kung fu master whereas our father isn't... He's just... Well regular, and his claws haven't aged well either so he's at a bigger disadvantage to younger tigers."

"You use your claws to fight with?" Tigress asked, having never used them for that purpose before.

"Well yeah, what else do you think they're for?" Tora replied shocked she that she didn't know that, even if tigress did grow up as the only tiger around, claws were one of a cats main features.

Tora's POV

I can't believe I've finally found her... I thought I'd never see her again, I can't wait to introduce her to my family, well... Our family. I wonder if Tigress has a guy... She comes off as a loner but I don't really expect her to be all jolly having found out about everything.

Two days later

I was meditating in the training hall when I heard the door open. Shifu and the other masters were in the middle of a game I guess. It was sort of a hide and seek challenge as one of them had to hunt down everyone else before midnight. If everybody was caught the hunter would win a week off from chores but if one person was still standing by midnight they could choose one person from the hiding team to join the hunter with the weekly chores.

Anyway... I quickly hid behind a column as I watched crane walk into the training hall, he was this games hunter. As I wasn't playing I thought of how I could mess with him as I knew Tigress was hiding under those rope beamy things she trains on. I quickly caught her attention and sent her a wink, hoping she played along, or if she even realised what I was doing. I climbed up the column and gained my balance on a wooden beam along the ceiling, then I let my tail fall into cranes sight. I seen him in the reflection of a sword slowly walk towards where I was...

Tigress' POV

What? Why is she winking at me...? Oh crap, Cranes here, I thought he wouldn't look here it's just too obvious... Wait why is she...? Oh.. I guess I had the power of twin tricks now. I guess I have no choice otherwise I'll get caught.

Crane was walking toward Tora, when I was out of his eyeline I climbed up from under the ropes and stood just outside of the doors, then following what Tora had done, I placed my tail where Crane could see it, then I knocked on the door hoping Tora wouldn't let him catch me here... This better not be a trick they planned together.

Tora's POV

YES!!! Yes she's playing along! This is awesome! Who knew she would have a playful side.

Tigress did just as I hoped she did, the look on Cranes face was hilarious, he was so confused. Just before he reached the door and caught Tigress I made the biggest leap I could toward the open roof and shouted to make sure Crane saw me, as I landed on the roof and damaged some of the roof tiles by digging my claws into them so I didn't fall off I just laughed. Then Crane flew up and immediately started to spar me thinking I was Tigress, I quickly kicked his leg to unbalance him and grabbed his wing so he couldn't fly off.

"Hey I'm not Tigress I'm just playing with you!" I managed to say between giggles.

"What... But... You was on the roof, then by the door... THATS TIGRESS!!" Crane shouted realising what had happened. He got free of my grip and quickly flew off to try and catch Tigress before she disappeared.

This place is amazing! I bet they have so much fun, and as for protecting the valley, I haven't seen one big threat they've had to deal with, just some pathetic crocs trying to rob small businesses. Tigress has a great life!

Tigress' POV

I have to admit that was kinda fun, she bought me some time to run, I'll hide by the cliff this time.

Tora is well.. Amazing! I don't know how bad it actually is back in India but she grew up with parents, family, friends. She's such a lively person, fun, energetic, a bit crazy... Kinda like Po... She's just happy overall. Tora has a great life...
