Another three months passed by. Summer leafs turning colors as fall began to roll in for its time of year. However, even as the seasons change, it didn't stop Tai Lung from frequently stopping by to check on Tigress.

Matter of fact, Tigress was about to get jumped by large grotesque men that wanted what she's never gave away. A precious thing that should only be expressed through marriage.

He could tell that she was startled at first but she calmed herself and boldly told them to leave. A little note he'll hold onto for later. She gave them a warning but it only seemed to piss them off. Tai Lung posed, ready at a second's notice.

Then again, he shouldn't worry so much. Tigress is a master Kung fu warrior after all. The next scene only further proved his point.

The large male pig tried to grab her shoulder in an attempt to shove her down. Instead she used the momentum to flip him over her shoulder, throwing him face first in the dirt.

The boar and rhino watched this happen. They became angered and launched at her as well, only to fail as badly as their friend. In a matter of minutes they were embarrassed and injured, walking away in defeat.

He couldn't help but smile at her. A fine warrior indeed.

As Tigress flexed her hands, she begins to wonder. Her train of thought cut short when she felt her face kiss the dirt.

With the male successfully pinning her down, she could hear him chuckle  before tugging at her clothing.

In mere seconds, Tai Lung slams the boar into the dirt with a round house kick before taking the other two. Apparently they hadn't learned their lesson the first time.

Letting out a snarl, the three were finally gone. He'll never forget their faces, but it wasn't the only one he won't forget.

Dirt smudged on her cheek as she soothed her breathing. Her ruby eyes looked at him in disbelief as she slowly pushed herself up from the ground.

Something in her stirred and he could tell it was unpleasant. Tigress began looking over the ripped fabric, and bondage around her chest. Both ripped.

It would be days before she would see Tai Lung again. But for him, it would be days before he met with her face to face. He wanted to give her space after what happened.

Ironically, both of them had the same questions.

What could have happened if he weren't there. Why did he save her? Why did they come back? How did she not react to him coming back?

One part of her felt as though he was trying to butter her up to make himself look good, however, another part reminded her that he too protected the valley way back when. Perhaps old habits die hard.

"Are you going to stay out there all night?" She asked. Tai Lung sat in the tree is right outside her bedroom window.

"Maybe. Maybe not. Haven't decided yet."

"If you freeze your ass off, don't come crying to me."

"I can't imagine that. But it's sweet that you're concerned about me." He purred, his tail flicking contently.

"Yeah-no."

"Just admit it. You care about me." Tai Lung teased, throwing in a quick wink. It was always fun to see her blush a little bit.

Tigress narrowed her eyes before attempting to shove him off the branch. She is successful, however, she didn't expect him to pull her along.

The two cats landed on a pile of snow that's gathering right next to the house. Tigress landing on her hands and knees on top of Tai Lung, whom sat back with his arms and legs sprawled out.
