Are You A Faunus?

"Talk"

'Thought'
_______________
"Ugh..."

She awoke from her slumber, tiredly opening her eyes; once opened, and after her vision became clearer and less blurry, she was able to see that she was inside some kind of room, a room filled with empty bowls, simple wooden or bamboo furniture, and a lot of posters and random items she assumed any fanboy or girl would be interested in. She even saw five action figures of a tiger, snake, bird, mantis, and monkey. On the window next to her, she couldn't help but weakly chuckle at the sight.

"T-This looks like something Ruby would have..."

However, when she said this, with little happy and smiling emotions she had, was instantly replaced with a sad and depressed frown. Luckily, she didn't get a chance to fall into her upsetting feelings; as she heard a knock, which made her turn her head to see a door on the floor. This made her assume that she was in the upper levels of a house or building. She also realized how less advanced everything looked, which did make her think she was in a village or something similar.

"Hello? Um, I don't know if you're awake, or not, but I just wanna come in to change your bandages and maybe breakfast, sooo, let me know before I open the door?"

The voice made her assume that it was a young man, possibly someone older than herself, and when he mentioned that he was responsible for taking care of her, which she barely noticed the bandages around her stomach, she couldn't help but relax a little and sigh.

"I-I'm awake, but you can come in..."

She still had suspicions and was definitely on guard, since she was still in an unknown location; however, if anyone wanted to do anything bad to her, they would've done so while she was unconscious, so for now, she could trust these people who seemed to have saved her - at least for now.

"Oh, they can talk."

That comment immediately caught her attention, and confused her greatly, clearly not understanding why this unknown person to her would say that, she actually started to lightly worry and get a bit annoyed.

'Oh God, was I saved by a Faunus racist?...'

However, just as she was preparing herself to deal with this, while probably figuring out how to leave as soon as possible so that she wouldn't have to deal with this for long, the floor door slowly opened, and when it did, a certain someone walked into the room, said someone who made her go wide-eyed in shock and horror.

"Um... Do you like noodles?"

The person who entered the room was none other than Po himself. For most people, when they saw him, all they saw was a big, clumsy, socially awkward panda that everyone knew and, well, acknowledged. But, for someone who wasn't used to seeing a big, walking, talking panda, it was a whole new world.

"G-GET AWAY FROM ME!"

She couldn't help but freak out, as she immediately tried to get away from him as far and fast as she could; unfortunately for her, she couldn't do either or. As soon as she sat up, she instantly felt pain on her lower stomach, which forced her to lay back down on the bed she was on, panting and groaning in discomfort while grabbing her tummy tightly. This made the panda tense up and worry, even though her reaction made him unsure on what she was thinking or talking about, but seeing her in this state of agony, he wasted no time getting next to her and trying to see what was wrong.

"Ok, ok, you didn't reopen your stitches, that's good."

Once Po was on his knees next to her, he wasted no time in removing her bandages to see if she had reopened her stitches or was bleeding; luckily, she wasn't doing either one of those things, much to his relief. Once he felt calmer and could see that it probably wasn't anything serious, he was able to help her without freaking out or panicking over her health.

"This is 'Formosana' herb, it should help with the pain and heal you faster."

Po grabbed the medicine called 'Formosan', a special plant-like medicine that was ground up and made into paste; he used some of it to rub it on the injuries on his guest's stomach, which made her wince and flinch at first, but she soon was able to relax and calm down, which let him know that it was helping her feel less pain.

"Also, I brought this wet towel, my dad thinks you might have a fever, so hopefully this should help you feel better."

After Po applied the medicine and gave her fresh bandages, he also grabbed a wet towel from a small bowl of water he had brought in and placed it gently on the top of her head, which actually made her feel much better, much to her surprise.

'I-Is... Is he some kind of mutated Faunus?...'

At first, upon meeting him, she honestly thought she was being attacked by some kind of intelligent bear-like creature; his black and white fur confused her, but after seeing him not only act differently, but also look different, she began to realize that he wasn't violent like she initially assumed, and instead, he had a gentle nature about him, moving, talking, and even looking at her in a way that made her feel comfortable. Despite looking more like a panda bear than a human, he was still a person with the same amount of intelligence and emotions as her, which honestly started to make her feel embarrassed once she realized this.

'O-Oh god, was I being racist to my own kind?...'

She was still unsure if the panda was just a panda and not some kind of Faunus, but if he was, she couldn't help but feel ashamed of herself for thinking like the people she hated.

"I also brought in some noodles, are you hungry?"

When Po asked this question, his stomach suddenly made a loud growling sound, which made him blush very deeply in embarrassment.

"... I'm gonna take that as a yes, do you need me to feed you?"

She quickly shook her head no to Po's offer; not only did she need a moment to process everything that had been happening around her, but she also preferred not to feel any more embarrassed or ashamed than she already was.

"I-I can feed myself... thank you..."

She gently spoke to the panda in thanks, to which he nodded in response, placing the tray of noodles, dumplings, a cup of tea, and some cookies on the table.

"Alright, um, I'll be downstairs with my dad, call us if you need us."

Po could sense the awkwardness and discomfort from her, which he also felt the same, so he wasted no time in getting up and leaving the room, to give them both some time to breathe and think, though before he could leave

"B-Blake Belladonna... That's m-my name if you were wondering..."

The panda stopped in his tracks to look at the cat-ear Faunus, which he now learned was called Blake Belladonna; he faced her and bowed politely.

"I'm Po, it's a pleasure to meet you."

She nodded her head in response to Po giving his name to her; with that short and quick introduction out of the way, he left the room and left her alone once again to think deeply in her thoughts. Luckily, this time it wasn't depressing or sad.

'What have I gotten myself into Blake?...'

When Blake asked herself that question, she quickly looked outside the window, hoping to figure out where she was. When she did, she immediately noticed two things that made her freeze and be shocked to the core. One, she saw that she was in a small village filled with talking, walking animals, who also acted as humans like Po. Two, even though it was morning, she was still able to see the moon...a moon that wasn't shattered.

"... Oh god..."

How would you rank Blake, in terms of power, in the Kung Fu Panda world?

(Also would Blake be seen as another animal in this world, basically being treated normally in the world, or would she be seen as a monster or something?)
