Chapter 68: Tiggerkat's Surprise

Ash gasped as he saw who the animal was, asking Waterstreak to stay. Wide-eyed, he took a few steps back in disbelief.
Everyone else looked shocked too; well, everyone but Waterstreak. He just smiled kindly at the visitor.
"No way..." Charlotte's voice trailed off.
Tiggerkat, however, had her eyes filled with excitement. "No way! TIGGYTIGER!" she shouted, apparently very happy to see another "tigger".
"Hi, cousin!" smiled Tiggytiger.
"There's two of them?!" shouted Stone.
"We're just gonna get even more annoyed," mumbled Airia.
"I'm so happy to see you!" cheered Tiggerkat, hugging Tiggytiger.
"Words fail me," Rusty said out of the corner of his mouth to Dust.
"Er, anyway, what are you doing here... Tiggytiger?" Fan asked politely.
"Y'know, just traveling. One of the animals here, I heard them talking about a, er, 'annoying tiger'... I knew it had to be Tiggerkat," laughed Tiggytiger.
Tiggerkat raised an eyebrow.
"You can stay in this Travelers' room if you want, Tiggytiger," nodded Waterstreak.
"Very well, thank you," smiled Tiggytiger, going over to sit next to Tiggerkat.
"Are you a Bender, Tiggytiger? I can teach you how to Bend Reese Cups!" said Tiggerkat eagerly.
"Oh boy," Airia mumbled.
Ash was still getting over the fact that Tiggerkat had a cousin. There's more than one "tigger"? Huh...
"I'm an Earthbender," nodded Tiggerkat.
"Did you give up on your Reese Cup Bending skills?" Tiggerkat asked.
"No, they don't teach that kind of Bending here," shrugged Tiggytiger, "so I had to learn Earthbending."
"Anyways," Darner said, before the two cousins' conversation could go any further, "we should start discussing-"
"FIREBENDER!" yowled a voice.
