Chapter Text

"......The thing you need to know about the Old legends is that the story is never finished" A voice echos, telling a tale as old as time, as a Crane flys through the dawn kissed clouds and trough tall pillar like mountains.

"There maybe no pages left to turn, but there is always more to the journey"

Below the clouds, shaded in orange from the rising sun, lay a small village, surrounded by Rice fields and lush green grass, villagers going about their day, and children playing the warm light of the sun as the crane flew over the village, almost watchfully.

"Rising from the Netherworld....the Demon Bull King ATTACKED!"

A large beam for purple a green light suddenly shot from the ground, turning the gentle atmosphere of the new day to a cold and heavy presence as a mighty Purple demon resembling a Bull emerged from the ground, snarling and baring his teeth. Letting out a bellowing roar the villagers scattered as he began his rampage, hs axe slicing through carts and houses like paper, all as the villagers screamed and ran in terror, begging for their lives and fleeing from danger.

"No one could stop him.....no one could resist..."

A Spark of golden light illuminated from the clouds, catching the Demons attention.

"No one, except..."

The golden light shot down from the sky, blinding the Demon Bull King as it's form became more visible, floating high above the village, a Primate, adorned in golden shimmering armour, hovered above the Demon, a calm, almost arrogant smirk on his face.

"the Legendary Monkey King!"

With his hand brought to his ear he summoned forth his mighty Size-Changing Staff, twirling it in his hand and swinging it to a hold at his side as it grew to a suitable size. Jumping from his Nimbus he landed firming on the ground, the ground cracking from the seer impact alone, he stood up straight, staring the Demon Bull King down with a determined expression.

They stood there and stared at each-other for what felt light eternity before the Demon Bull King roared veraciously, making the first move to attack.

With a cocky grin jumps up and lands on his staff as it shrinks down, growing in width before shooting forward, riding his rapidly extending staff toward the charging demon.

The two enter a veracious fight, exchanging blow after blow, almost seeming evenly matched for a split moment, but the Monkey King had the upper hand in this battle, like so many others.

Tossing his staff, if collided with the Bull Demons face, hitting his head upward with the sheer force of the blow, moving so quickly, you'd mistake him for teleporting, Monkey King jumps upward and grabs his staff mid-air and swoops down toward the Bull Demon for another fierce strike, hitting his across the face with his staff sending the Demon Bull King stumbling back, landing square of his feet as he was sent flying back, Axe landing behind him.

Ripping out some of his hair Monkey King summons clones of himself to aid in this battle, all of which begin to dive bomb the Demon Bull King, exploding on impact.

Enraged the Bull Demon releases a beam of energy from his mouth, destroying the remaining clones.

The Monkey King jumps high in the air, almost out of sight before his staff starts rapidly extending down toward the Bull Demon, he moves to block before the Staff changes to the size of a Pillar and crushes him underneath, stunning him but a moment.

Charging down toward the Bull Demon on his Nimbus, he finds the Demon Bull King is not out yet, as he breaks from the rubble and grows to a monumental size, roaring furiously, teeth bared with hatred at the Simian.

Punching away any flying rubble and transforming into a bird to avoid debris he manages to dodge another beam from the Bull Demons mouth as he flys downwards. And after turning back to Monkey form, riding his nimbus and taking on a third beam head on without a scratch he punches the Bull Demon full force, sending a shockwave so intense it shook the earth.

Somehow still up, the Bull Demon stands up and roars angrily, preparing another attack when red ribbon binds his body, clamping shut his mouth and binding his limbs, his eyes trail up to find the source of suck trickery.

"And than, amidst the Chaos, the Third Lotus Prince had entered the Battle, binding the Demon Bull King in his Mythical Armillary Sash!"

The Third Lotus Prince glares down at the Bull Demon bound in his sash, looking toward the Monkey King with a nod.

Without another word the Monkey King had slashed off the top of a Mountain and raised it up over the Demon.

"The Monkey King used his magical staff to pick up a nearby mountain"

Almost like he knew what was about to befall him, the Demon Bull King fought against the Sash with all his strength, but his struggles only seemed to make the binds tighter.

"He trapped the Demon Bull King Underneath it..."

The Monkey King than pushed down with al his force, dropping the Mountain down on top of the Bull Demon with all his strength, the shockwave sending a storm of dust through the area and a shockwave so powerful the earth itself shook.

Pull his Staff from the mountain the Monkey King look up at the Third Lotus Prince, whom raised his spear, coated in flames, and threw it full force into the mountain, several seals appearing over and above it as it Seal the Mountain in place, the flames dispersing, the heat never leaving.

"And the Third Lotus Prince had Sealed the mountain with The Fire Tipped-Spear, the spear that would burn all who were unworthy to wield it....trapping the Demon Bull King forever"

Staring at the Spear within the Mountain the Monkey turning away, while the Third Lotus Prince had vanished into the clouds, having a lot of explaining to do as to why he was missing his weapon.

"With the Battle won, the Third Lotus Prince returned to the Celestial Realm, and the Monkey King vanished.....never to be seen again...."

"...Legend says that Spear still lies on top of that mountain....The one thing keeping out world from certain destruction....and with the Demon Bull King gone, civilizations managed to advance into the amazing city we now live in!"

With the passing of time quickly advancing the once small village atop the mountain and turned into a city that spread far and wide, a Megapolis filled with Hundreds upon thousands of Humans and Demons, living together in harmony, although there were some Demons who preferred to stick to the traditional ways of tricking and eating Humans, many chose to mingle with the Mortals, even fall in love and have kids with them.

"A world of elegant cultures, gentle loving people, a city BRIMMING with 5 Star cuisine!"

A Young boy looked down from his sketch book looking at his father whom was telling him the tale of how the Monkey King and the Third Lotus Prince had sealed away the Demon Bull King.

"And all because of the Monkey King!" He finished, sitting on his stool, looking proud of himself, of there was one thing he enjoyed it was sharing the wisdom of the old legends with youngsters, and who better to tell than his son Mk?

"Oh Hahaha!! Thats so GOOD!" Mk laughs enthusiastically jumping up from his chair. " Monkey King is so COOL, he's so STRONG and HANDSOME!! Oh OH!! And Prince Nezha is SO AWSOME!! The way he sealed the Mountain with his spear!!"

Tang chuckles as he listens to his ramble on about how cool the 2 immortals were. "Haha! Oh Mk, and you thought you know ALL the Stories about the Third Lotus Prince and Monkey King"

"Oh but I Do!" Mk says in a playful 'Matter-of-fact" tone, pulling out 2 sketch books that he made documentaries of. "I've got their whole lives documented extensively in these unauthorised, autobiography of Monkey King and the Third Lotus Prince! Written and illustrated by yours truly!"

"Like how Monkey King was born from the stone, and lived behind a water fall with his SWEET LIL BABY MONKEY FRIENDS!! And how Nezha was born after his mother was pregnant for 3 years! To his battle with Ao Bing! AND AND OH-"

"It's nice to see is taking in all these stories" Tang chuckles, picking up a sketch of the Lotus Nezha was reborn from. "Pearls of wisdom dripping from my lips!"

With a cough and a grunt Tang continues. "Well you know the deal, one story, one bowl of Free Ta Jang Yin, hm?"

"Op! Oh right! Free Noodles! Got it!" Mk chuckles, closing his Book and placing it down on the counter and grabbing a bowl. "How heavy do you think a mountain is? You know, compared to-AH!"

He yelps as a spoon suddenly comes hurtling toward him, he ends up tossing the Bowl of noodles as he ducks to avoid it, the Bowl is grabbed by his his boss (And Other Dad) Pisgy. "FREE NOODLES!?"

Pigsy slams the bowl down on the counter, somehow not spilling so much as a drop of the soup within, his glare sharpes at the 2 as he climbs up onto the counter to getting even ground and yells at them. "NO ONE GETS A FREE MEAL AT PIGSYS! I'M NOT RUNNIN A CHARITY HERE TANG!!"

Tang stares at him for a second before pushing him a few inches back for personal space. "Ah but Pigsy, i was paying with wisdom!" Tang says calmly with a grin.

"Yeah!? Well wisdom don't pay the rent you Freeloader!" Pigsy yells angrily. "And you!" he turns his attention to Mk, jumping off the counter and storming over to him.

"You've been slackin off all mornin! I've got a dozen orders that need to go out! So quit slackin and GET PACKIN!" He snarls, backing him into a wall.

"...yeah i was about to take break...sooooooo..." Mk says nervously, hoping he would buy it.....he did not.

"...break.....BREAK!? There's no Break in WAR!!" Pigsy yells pulling out a spoon as he prepared to enact his motivational speech. "I need workers! Soldiers in the army of PIGSYS NOODLES! Home of the worlds LONGEST NOODLES!! How else am i going to expand my Business in enemy territory!?"

"........You mean....Across the street?" Mk asks him confused, pointing to the Boar Demon, Gong Boar (or just Mr. Boar), across the road, manager of Wild Pig Noodles.

The 2 of the Pig demons glare at each other from across the street, growling at each intensely.

".......I stand by my statement" Pigsy responds plainly before shoving a wrapped up bowl of Noodles in Mks arms and shoving him out the door with a kick. "NOW HURRY UP!!"

As Mk rushes toward the Delivery Car Pigsy faintly hears the sound of slurping and light chewing, whipping his head around to see Tang eating the Noodles he had taken off Mk earlier. Once noticing his husband glaring at him, raising his spoon, Tang attempts to calm his aggression.

"...uh....hey sweetie.....you're not gonna......hit your ol Tangy now....right?" Tang chuckles nervously.

From outside Mk could hear feint yelling from Pigsy and Tang.

"HEY YOU GET BACK HERE YOU COWARD!!"

"PIGSY! PIGSY WAIT!!"

"I WANT MY MONEY!!!"

Mk chuckles as he boxes up the orders and gets in the car, turning the key to start the engine, he's pretty much used to his Dads banter, not even their affection will sway Pigsy from his strict 'No Money No Food' policy, especially not during opening hours.

Driving through the city toward his first stop he looks at the sights while listening to music, a group of men playing Xiangqi, families and citizens of Megapolis going about their day, kids playing, neon lights blaring, today seemed relatively calm on the roads.

Reaching his location at an old construction sight, he parks up by an elevator. Flicking out the wheels on his Rollar Skate shoes he hopes out the car with the correct order and rolls on into the elevator, music still blasting into his ears.

Pulling the lever the elevator descended down into the depths of the construction sight. Once reaching the bottom Mk slides out, the wheels of his Roller Skate shoes making slight scrapping noises as they roll along the dirt covered floor as he dances as he 'walks'.

Mk is snapped out of his trance when he sees someone up head, lifting his Headphones just slightly to hear what they were saying.

"I've waited and eternity for this moment" A feminine voice sighs. "Is everything in order?"

"Just making the final adjustments Mother" A Younger, more masculine voice chuckles evilly in response.

Infront of him were 2 individuals, one with fiery red hair and a red Coat, while the other raven black hair put up in a way that resembled Bull horns, wearing a scarlet dress with Holden accents and a black Shoulder-pad like collar. They were surrounded by what looked to be Humanoid Bull robots, looking ever so menacing in this dark lighting.

This gave Mk just enough bad vibes to dive toward the nearest cover before he was noticed, the hell!? Did he just walk in on some weird.....evil.....MOB GATHERING!? He peaked out just far enough to not be seen but also see what was going on.

Some glimmering catches his eye, something upon a small mound in the centre of the cavern, what seemed to be a grass covered mound with a small tree sticking out of it, sitting at the centre of it was a golden and red Spear.

"Finally, after all this time! We have the means to lift Nezhas legendary Fire-Tipped Spear!" The Women says in a tone similer to a mix of relief and and evil sneer.

Gazing upon the spear, Mk could practically feel his eyes light up in amazement. "Whoa.....Nezhas Fire-Tipped Spear" Is whispered to himself in amazement. Wanting to get a better look, Mk quietly snuck around the wall he was hiding behind and began climbing up a nearby pipe to get his bearings, making sure to retract the Wheels of his shoes first before doing something so dangerous.

"My love will finally be returned! Once we remove the Spear we- Huh?" She gasps in confusion as the 2 see a Bull Robot climb up the mound and stands infront of the Spear, eyeing it determinedly.

Reaching a set of pipes to hang/lay on from above Mk gazes down at the scene bellow, a small Ginger coloured Bird standing next to him on the pipe, curiously looking down at the Bull robot.

The bull robot gripped the hilt of the spear and began to try and pull it from the ground, the moment it did the spear began to heat up, temperatures rising dramatically before bursting into flames, the Bull robots hands began to steam and smoke as the heat intensified, it's hands beginning to melt from the seer heat it was giving off, soon having no choice but to let go the moment it's arm caught alight, flames creeping up their hands to their shoulders and they thrash around panicked, it's body falling back harshly form the mound as it's arms snap off from it's shoulders down, the metal skin of the robots broken off arms turning to a mushy puddle as sparks emitted from it, it's joints cracked and melting, soon burning to ash within a mere few seconds.

Mk visibly winces, if that spear could do that to a robot he doesn't wanna know what it will do to a human........would probabaly look the same but with a bonus of agonising screams.....great now he has that image engraved in his brain...

Looking at it's now missing arms disheartened it slowly looks up at the 2 people before it, the younger boy chuckling in amusement while the older women just rolls her eyes.

"Hahaha! You fool! You think we didn't try that already?" The Boy in red laughs. "It's going to take more than a few Robots to life Nezhas Fire-Tipped Spear! Only those deemed worthy can wield it! Your just lucky it was just your arms! We had to clean up the remains of the other idiot robots who tried that"

Mk couldn't help but feel bad for the poor robot, dude was just doing his job no need to rub it in.

"But I! Red Son! Have designed this gauntlet to bend it to my will!" The boy, now formally introduced as Red Son, summoned a large bulky gauntlet to his right hand.

Gasping in both shock and amazement, which causing his grip to loosen, causing him to almost fall, he quickly grabbed the pipe infront of him while his feet managed to hook onto top of the pipe behind him, the bag of noodles held securely in his teeth, well this was quite the predicament.

Walking up to the Spear Red Son grabbed ahold of it firmly, the spear had started to heat up dramatically, what felt like a Heat-Wave burst through the room as the wind whipped past them with embers in the air as the Spear caught alight. Pulling with all his might his hair turned to fire as he pulled with both hands, one of his hands coated in flames, if it weren't for the fact he was a Fire Demon he would have burnt to a crisp already, but he merely had a tolerance to fire, not an immunity.

Letting out a cry of strain and determination the intensity of the fire increased, turning from a warm yellowish orange to a hot orange faded down to blue, the grass and plants under and around it soon starting to wither and die, and with one finally pull, the rocks underneath the spear cracked open and the spear was ripped from the earth.

"HA!! YES!! I DID IT!!" Red Son exclaims, panting heavily, his hair slightly disheveled and his coat slightly charred, nothing a good tailoring couldn't fix.

The many Bull Robots clap in joy and amazement at the accomplishment (Except for the armless one, poor guy), cheering in joy at the removal of the Fire-Tipped Spear.

Waiting a few moments, Red Sons smile dropped in confusion, wasn't something supposed to happen? Why wasn't his Father free!?

".....WHAT!? Why Isn't anything happening!?" Red Son exclaims, jumping form the mound. "Mother, are you sure this is the right mountain?"

The women sighs in frustration as she brings her hand to her face and rubs her temples. "No, maybe it was the other mountain with a magical eternally burning Spear, sealing away my husband!"

Not even a second after she said that the ground began to shake and the earth began to crack open, a goulash green light shining from within the cracks and something suddenly burst form the earth, sending the many Bull robots tumbling and around and flinging into walls, a hulking form beginning to emerge.

"Yes father! Rise! RISE!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Red Son cackles in glee.

The Demon Bull King rose up from the ground, panting and snarling with internalised rage and hatred toward a certain Simian and Deity, how long had he been sealed here for? How long had he been asleep for!? Standing up straight his hulking form towered over all in the cavern, one of his horns seemed to have been broken off, no doubt from the mountain.

Mk stares in horror at the Bull Demons emergence, those stories Tang told him were REAL!? The DEMON BULL KING WAS REAL!? Oh this was bad! THIS WAS VERY VERY BAD!!

".....Flesh.....Bone......I have returned to the realm of the living!" DBK says in shock, it has been so long since he had felt the mortal realms cool yet humidity air.

From above Mk could feel his body shaking, what was he going to do!? He couldn't stay up here forever! But he couldn't go down there either!! He could feel his arms begin to burn, he wasn't going to be able to hold on any longer!!

Mk looks up the the Bird, which was still there for some reason. It had begun to hop over to him, looking down at him, and than his hand, and than back at him, the realisation hit MK like a bus. managing to spout out a whisper series of 'No's' he tries to fan the Bird away from him, and taking this as the perfect chance it starts pecking one of his hands.

"OH DEMON BULL KING! How i've missed you" The women says in a flirtatious tone.

"Princess Iron Fan! The years have been kind" DBK flirts back, oh how he's missed the sight of his beloveds face, that DAMNED Monkey and petty DEITY will PAY for what he has done!! "How did you free me?"

Princess Iron Fan was about to answer when Red son interrupts. "Actually it was I father! I moved the Spear! I learned how to harness it! And make it's power my- O-OUR Power!" Red Son corrects himself after getting an intimidating glare from DBK.

"hmm.......Excellent" DBK says with an evil smirk.

At the praise from his father a small smile of joy creeps onto Red Sons face, turning around he yells out his speech of victory. "Together! We, The Demon Bull Family! Will plunge the world into ETERNAL DARKNESS!!"

As Red Son spoke Mk was more focused of getting the bird to stopped pecking his hand, HE WAS DIRECTLY ABOVE RED SON!! IF HE FELL NOW HE WOULD MOST CERTAINLY GET INTO A HEEP OF TROUBLE!!

Squawking the bird only seems to peck his hand more intensity and harder than before, and this causes him to finally loose his grip as he fell from the pipes he was hoisted on from a scream of panic and terror as he descended down at rapid speeds.

"Huh?" Red Son utter sin confusion as he looks up to see the source of the unknown screaming before Mk landed on top of him harshly, causing him to drop the spear as it landed a few feet away.

Groaning Mk pushes himself up, gripping his head, he looks down at who he just landed on and finds a very confused Red Son under him staring at him, looking like a computer unable to process what just happened........man....now that he gets a good look at him he's actually kinda- No NO!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!! HE'S A BAD GUY MK!! A BAD GUY!!

He hears movement beside him and slowly look to his side to find the entirety of the Demon Bull army and PIF and DBK himself glaring down at him intensely.

"...hehe......someone ordered some Noodles?" Mk says with a nervous chuckle, he's going to die here wasn't he?

Snapping out from his daze Red Sons expression shifts to an angry one. "GET OFF ME YOU IDIOT!!" He exclaims combusting into a mountain of flames which cause Mk to quickly scamper off of him before he got burnt to a crisp, landing harshly on his butt as Red Son stands up. "ARGH!! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU JUST DID!? YOU RUINED MY MOMENT!!"

He is soon snapped out of his rage induced state by DBK walking up beside him, glaring down at MK with a disappointed look. "A little eavesdropper has fallen into our midst? It seems a waste to crush something so insignificant as my first act as new ruler of this new world.....but...so be it" he snarls, lifting his foot to crush him.

OK one, hurtful did not need to elaborate on the insignificant part he feels violated in every way possible, and two, HE'S ABOUT TO FUCKING DIE!!!

"A- WAIT FATHER!!" Red Son exclaims sliding in the way.

"What is this?" DBK growls in frustration, wanting an explanation as to WHY his Son had stopped him fro crushing the little spy.

Clearing his throat Red Son pushes his father a few Centimeters back by the foot, ok seriously HOW STRONG WAS THIS DUDE!?

"Ehem, Waste not your energy on this.....'Peasant'" Red Sn says, pointing at Mk, ok wow, does everyone in this family have a thing towards humans? "Please! Allow ME to show you how POWERFUL i have become in your absence!!"

Ah! He sees whats going on here, Son trying to earn his fathers praise and make him proud, man when was the last time this guy had a hug?

Staring at him for a few moments DBK finally speaks. ".....As you wish"

"Maybe i can use this chance to get away" Mk whispers to himself as he starts trying to sneak away, but is caught red handed by Red Son as he turns around.

"In some ways you're very fortunate Noodle Boy" Red Son sneers. "Not many insects are lucky enough to be stamped out by the Demon Bull Family-"

Red Sons voice almost seems to muffle and cut out when Mks finger brushed over the Fire-Tipped Spear, Mk turns his head toward it as whispers speak to him within, almost like the spear itself was speaking to him.

"Prince Nezhas Spear"

"Use it"

"Embrace your destiny"

"Become--"

"--ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME!?" Red Sons voice becomes hearable once again, snapping Mk out from his daze. "I, RED SON, WILL NOT BE DISRESPECTED!! YOU'RE HISTORY!!" He yells, bursting into a flames.

Suddenly charging forward to deliver a devastating blow with his Gauntlet, Mk panics looking around for anything to defend himself with, all he can find is the Spear, but HE SAW WHAT THAT THING DID TO THAT BULL ROBOT!! IT'LL BURN HIM TO ASH!!

However, with little time to think he grabs his only means for survival and holds it out infront of him, the gauntlet collides with the hilt of the spear, which successfully blocks his blow, some of the rubble around his flying out in different directions from the impact. Mk waiting for sheering pain, burning agony, waiting for the Spear to set him alight and burn him to ask just like the Bull Robots arms and possible other robots before it......but nothing came.....nothing except a warmths that.....felt foreign yet....familiar....

With a gasp Red Son steps back. "N-No way....How could you possibly life Nezhas Fire-Tipped Spear!?" It was impossible! Anyone who touched the staff would be burnt to a mere charred stain of the floor the moment they made contact with it, even HE would not have been safe from it's flames without the gauntlet!

Mk stands up, still holding firmly onto the Staff, looking down at it in shock....he's.....alive......he touched the spear and LIVED!!......Was that good thing or a Bad thing?

PIF Stares at the scene in disbelief. "This is impossible"

DBK's glare shifted to a flabbergasted look, it cannot be!

"I-I don't know whats going on here but I'M ABOUT TO END IT!! THAT STAFF IS MINE!!" Red Son yells as he and the entire Bull Demon family and army suddenly charge at him.

Mk panics and yelps in terror. "I'M SUPPOSED TO BE ON MY BREAK!!" Mk exclaims fearfully, swinging the spear, resulting in it releasing a slash of golden orange flames, knocking the entirety of the army back, some Robots with severe burns in damages, while the Demon Bull Family was left mostly unharmed.

"This can't be!" BDK Exclaims, being the only one not knocked back by the blow, and blocking against the incoming flaming Robots, PIF pulls out her staff and steps forward to take matters into her own hands.

"....aaaa......That was way more explosive than I expected" Mk mutters out in shock, the hell did he just do!?

Once Mk finished somewhat processing what happened he starts swinging the Spear around in a panic. "STAY BACK!! I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M DOING THIS STUFF!!"

"That Spear doesn't belong to you little boy.....hand....it.....Over" She says in an annoyed and frustrated tone.

"....hmmmmmmmmm.............Noooooo?" Mk responds with an uncertain tone, great sage what has he just gotten himself into!? Man he just wants to GET OUT OF HERE!!

Not even a moment later the Spear starts to jerk and jitter in Mk's grip, Flames erupting from it that creep down the hit and other the floor, soon creeping into his shoes, the wheels suddenly pop out from their compartments, now covered in golden orange flames, but not burning.......ok........that was weird....

"......Ok i didn't even move the TiIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" Mk yells in terror and shock as he suddenly goes speeding off down the way he came at blinding speeds, his shoes moving entirely on their own.

After processing wat just happened PIF groans in anger. "URG!! He CAN'T escape with that SPEAR!!"

".....Centuries in oblivion plotting my revenge....and all of it THWARTED BY A LITTLE THEIF!!" DBK Yells in anguish. "I WILL TEAR THE FLESH FROM HIS BONES!!!!"

"F-Father! Allow me! I will not fail you a second time!!" Red Son exclaims determinedly.

"...See that you D o n ' t " DBK Snarls, he was at his limit right now, and he can only remain patient for so long. "My patience is PAST IT'S END!!"

"Of course Father" Red Son nods teleporting through his flames to the vehicle he had been saving for an occasion like this, he was going to give it to father as a gift but it seems he needs it more than him right now.

Entering the vehicle he speeds off to chase down that damned, annoying, Noddle Boy.

And all while the same Ginger Bird watches from afar.

Back with Mk, he is slammed into the elevator, back hitting the level to pull it up, he groans as he rubs his sore back, the hell was up with his shoes!? They just started moving on their own!

He looks down at his feet to look at the flames shrouding the wheels, just like Nezhas Flame Wheels he used to fly around and move at blinding speeds, did he.......end up getting Nezhas powers after touching that spear!?.....No that can't be right he;s not sure it works that way......buuuuuuut if that is the case he'll need to get more accommodated with.......THIS whole thing, man this would be a bit easier with his ACTUAL pair Roller skates and not just the shoes, he should test it out sometime if he survives this.

The elevator reaches the top and the door slides open, ok Mk, you got this, just slowly.......slide....to the car......no big deal....

After taking only one step he is suddenly shot at mac 1 speed into the car, nearly tipping it over from the impact, carefully, and not to mention very sore, he opens the door and climbs inside, putting the Spear down beside him and carefully manually retracting his wheels into his shoes, there we go, thats should do it.

With that now out of the way he quickly turned on the car and sped of onto the main road, and the moment he speeds off he hears a loud explosion behind him, looking in the reerview mirror he finds Red Son in a scary, Monster truck sized car chasing him down.

Speeding onto the main road Red Son is hot on his tail. "ALRIGHT NOODLES BOY!! HAND IT OVER!!"

After a long internal battle he grabs the box filled with the Noodle orders and looks at it sorrowfully, Pigsys going to kill him. "I'm sorry valued customer, you won't be getting your noodles"

With that he takes the top of the box and takes a Bowl of Noodles out from one of the bags before tossing it at Red Son, the Noodles land of him windshield, temporarily blinding him, but only for a few seconds before he uses the windshield wipers to wipe it off, ok yep that only made him angrier.

"FINE!! HAVE IT YOUR WAY!!" Red Son yells angrily, tossing the now empty bowl back at him, hitting the car.

"AH!! YOUR REALLY SCARY!!" Mk exclaims fearfully, putting more pressure on the Gas peddle to speed up.

A fire ball is suddenly sent his way, which results in his car being flung into the air from the impact, somehow landing in one piece onto another the rooftops, yelping in a panicked cry he keeps his hands firmly on the sheering wheel as the car jumps from roof to roof, Red Sons ride right below him to his right.

"WOULD YOU GET DOWN HERE SO I CAN KILL YOU!?" He yells angrily.

"NEVER!!" Mk yells back.

His car suddenly broke through one of the ceilings and into a young women's living room, destroying her Tv, table and nearly crushing her on the couch.

"OOOHHH I'M SORRY!!" he yells out and apology as his drives through her apartment, somehow avoiding most of her stuff before bursting out through the wall and onto a different road, oooooh he's going to have to pay for that later if he survives this.

After looking around furiously, trying to find Red Son, he finds that he is nowhere in sight, laughing in relief he lets the air he was unintentionally keeping inside his lungs out. "HAHAHAHAHA!! I THINK I LOST HIM!!"

However as if his luck wasn't bad enough his car suddenly broke down mid drive, oh no....nononononoNONONONONONO!!

"OOOOH COME ON COME! COME ON OLD GIRL!! YOU GOT THIS!! OOOHH DON'T DO THIS TO ME!!" Mk exclaims, hitting it a few times to try and get it to work again but to no avail holding the spear in his hands tightly all he can think about right was how mad Pigsy was going to be when he found out. "Oh man, Dadsys going to kill me!"

He suddenly heard the revving of an engine behind him, knowing damn well who it was.

He turns around to see a laughing Red Son speeding toward him, yelping he climbs over the broken car and runs for his life, seeing 2 teens with a Hoverboard he sprints over to them, knocking the teenage boy off the hoverboard while apologising profusely before attaching the spear to his back and taking off full speed while on it.

"Wha- HEY!! GET BACK HERE- AAAAHHH!!" The Teenage boy screams, just narrowly avoiding Red Sons car, his friend taking a quick picture of Red Son as he passed before going back to what she was doing without a care in the world, he managing to get out of the way just in time, but is now definitely in desperate need of therapy.

"HAHAHA!! I'M COMING TO GET YOU NOODLE BOY!!" Red Son laughs maniacally, hot on Mks tail.

Mk, having not been on a hoverboard before, is surprisingly a natural at flying it, he only hit the wall twice! Must be the Roller-skating experience!

Managing to get out of the alley he was flying through he quickly swerves onto the main road, which was shockingly empty, must really be a slow day.

Looking back to see how close Red Son is Mk finds that Red Son's car had gotten stuck in the Alley due to being to big to properly fit through, chuckling in vistory a bit he speeds off.

Growling angrily Red Son flips up a hatch to reveal a button. "YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY THAT EASY!!" He slams his fist down onto the button and the Car begins to shift.

After a few moments Red Son comes bursting out of the Monster truck sized car inside a smaller, Race Car shape vehicle.

Mk flyings around the street, avoiding a car stuck at a traffic light (whom was not happy about Mk cutting infront of them) and and flies down a curved road, he needs to get to Pigsys Noodles and tell them EVERYTHING!!

He had chosen to take a shortcut on a road still under construction, how did he know this was a quicker way? Well lets just say he doesn't tell Pigsy everything.

As he flies down the road he hears something quickly approaching him from behind, he turns around to find Red Son quickly advancing toward him in a Race Car.

"COME ON!! WHERE DID YOU GET THAT!?" Mk exclaims in disbelief.

"What!? You think i'd drive anything without at least ONE complex transformation?" Red Son scoffs back, speeding up, Strong AND smart!? Man he really was something!

When red Son suddenly comes catapulting toward him and flying over his head did MK really start to panic. He only just managed to avoid getting crushed by the Car, only to loose his balance on the Hoverboard and getting slingshotted off, causing him to land of the front of Red Sons car, have a split second of relief that slowly went south as he noticed the road coming to an abrupt end with a 'Road Closed' sigh sitting at the end.

Letting out a scream of terror, holding on tightly to the staff as they both went flying over the edge of the road.

As they fall from the ledge a green flash overtakes Mks vision as a familiar motorbike rushes past him. He's grabbed by the arm and dragged onto the Motorbike as green light envelops him and the rider, the motorbike shoots downwards and onto a road underneath them, he could head a feint 'You've got to be KIDDING ME!!' from Red Son as they rush past him, landing on the ground and speeding off, the sound of Red Son vehicle crashing harshly into something audible in the distance.

Shooting down the road the rider skids to a stop, causing Mk to fling of the Motorbike and onto the floor. Stepping off the motorbike the riders suit dissipates revealing of BESTEST FRIEND MEI!!

"NAILED IT!!" She says cheerfully, pulling out her phone and taking a picture of her self for the occasion.

"MEI!!" Mk exclaims joyously scampering over to her.

"That was an intense game of tag! You guys looked like you were having so much fun, i wanted to join to!!" She exclaims excitedly, pulling Mk up from the floor.

"A-Ah- Actually i almost died back there" Mk stutters out.

"Butcha Didn't! So lets celebrate with a round of, 'MONKEY MECH!!'" Mei exclaims excitedly pointing to the nearby arcade machine he had installed just across from Pigsys Noodles, now THATS where he was!

"you should invite your new edgy friend to!" Mei says sheepihsly.

"u-Um actually he's n-not my friend-" Mk stutters out.

"OOOHHH!! BOYFRIEND!! Gotcha! Didn't know you went and got yourself a Special someone Mk! Bout time you-"

"A-Actually he tried to kill me...." Mk clarifies, him and Red Son!? He can't really see that working out considering he is technically now an enemy of his entire family.

"WEEELLL IN THAT CASE!!" Mei says pulling out her phone, finger hovering over a button with a Dragon skull on it, turning toward him menacingly. "Where does he live?"

"MK!! WHERE ARE YA YOU PUNK!?" He heard Pigsy yell at him from across the street just outside the restaurant, aaaaaand here comes the scolding!

"You mind tellin me why some bozo left a 0 Star review on Pigsys Noodles!?" he yells angrily storming toward them.

"O-oh, uhhhh yeah! So heres what i think happened with that-" Mk tries to explain but was cut off my Mei.

"WHOA! 0 STARS!? Congrats! Thats better than nothin right?" Mei congratulates them joyously, she.......really needs to learn how the food industry works....

"THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS MEI!!" Pigsy scolds Mei, whom was just giggling childishly, just as he turned back to Mk to scold him more he finds him already gone and running back toward the shop. "Where'd he go!?"

"DAD!! DAD!!" Mk yells running across the street and into Pigsys Noodles.

"H-HEY! DON'T YOU RUN AWAY WHEN I'M TRYING TO SCOLD YOU!! GET BACK HERE!!" Pigsy exclaims.

Within the depths of the Demon Bull Family's lair, as more Bull clones were being made in their factory Red Son was making the final adjustments to his fathers new armour and robotic attachments, due to his slightly weakened body, he was in need of a few robotic enhancements, all those years sealed away had taken a serious toll on his body.

Making the finishing touches Red Son lifts up his welding mask with a proud look. "aaaand that should about do it!" He says, looking up at his father.

"it's.......Heavy....." DBK says as he stands up, slightly wobbly on his feet, his adrenaline rush from when he was released had long since ended, since then he had started to feel the tolls taken on his body since his concealment, his body felt weaker and he could barely stand on his own 2 feet without his wife's assistance, these robotic enhancements his son had provided him at least helped with that, even if it was a little.

"O-Oh t-thats because it's not powered up yet" Red Son clarifies. "The suit absorbs energy to create energy, and what better source than the magic spear that kept you underground!"

"....You mean the spear that YOU LOST!?" DBK says in a serious disappointed tone

"U-Uh....ye-yeah uh....It' was the Noodle boy i-" Red Son stampers out, interrupted my his mother chuckling.

"Oh don't toy with him my love~" PIF chuckles deviously, floating over to the 2 of them, landing gracefully on the floor. "We will get it back, i have Bull Clones scouring the city! It's only the matter of time!"

"....AND while we wait! The furnace can convert OTHER THINGS into energy!" Red Son speaks up, tossing in his Welding Mask as an example, he can just get a new one, these things are surprisingly easy to find.

The moment the welding mask enters the furnace in his chest he feels a surge, however small, rush through his, his body felt strong than it did a few moments ago, albeit only by a fraction. He lets out a roar as he feels the surge of energy shoot through him.

"The more rare the item, the more POWERFUL father will become! And once we have that spear, HE WILL BE UNSTOPPABLE!!" Red Son exclaims with a wide grin, a smirk creeps onto PIF's face as she sees her loves strength increase, even if it was by a little, it was a good enough start.

Sitting down in his throne he opens up a few holographic screens infront of him to search for anything they could use to empower him more, something rare, something in limited stock. "Now to find something are.....and expensive....something that will give me the power i deserve...."

His scrolling comes to a stop when he lays eyes on a Limited edition product at a shoe store, now this might be a good start.

Meanwhile back with Mk, a few seconds before he had charged into the shop, Tang was sipping down the left over soup in his Bowl when Mk sudden bursts in and leaps toward him.

"DAD!! DAD!!" Mk exclaims, the sudden fright causing Tang to almost choke on the Soup as he coughed and looked at Mk.

He finds Mk rummaging through the counter trying ti find something as he babbles nonsense. "Remember that story you told me this morning about the Demon Bull King!? AHHH WHERE IS IT WHERE IS IT WHERE IS IT!? oh, there it is" He says, pulling out his handmade Autobiography from under some bowls causing them to fall over.

"THE DEMON BULL KING!! SEE!?" Mk exclaims, showing him the surprisingly well draw close up of DBKs face, Pigsy yells angrily as the bowls clatter onto the floor, having to be held back be Mei, pretty sure he heard some of them break.

".....yes?" Tang asks him confused, sipping on the soup left in his bowl. "What about it?" He asks, mouth full with a left over dumpling.

Mk suddenly leaps toward him and starts yelling in a panicked tone. "THE DEMON BULL KING IS BACK!! THE LEGEND IS TRUE!! THE FIRE-TIPPED SPEAR WAS REMOVED!! WE HAVE TO FIND THE MONKEY KING!! OR NEZHA!! OR BOTH!! IT'S THE ONLY WAS TO SAVE EVERYONE BEFORE THE WORLD IS DESTROYED-"

Tang cuts him off by clicking some chopsticks together in his face, it's usually his way to asking Mk to back up a bit. "Boy, relax, you nearly spilled my soup, besides you delusional, it's just a story" He reassures him, he hates seeing his kid so......terrified.....what kind of father would he be if he didn't try to calm him down?

"Delusional huh? Would you call THIS delusional!?" Mk exclaims proudly, pulling out a long red and gold spear from Buddha knows where and holding it out in a fighting stance, THE HELL WAS THIS KID DOING WITH A WEAPON!?

Tang shrinks back at the spear pointed at him while Pigsy stutters out in shock has Mk just pulled out a LITERAL SPEAR from nowhere, Mei runs over and starts looking athe spear in utter amazment.

"WHOA MK!! THATS A SICK WEAPON!! WHERE'D YA GET IT!? I WANT ONE!!" Mei swoons over it.

"K-KID YOU CAN'T BRING THAT IN HERE! WHERE DID YOU EVEN GET THAT- STOP POINTING IT AT TANG!! IT'S DANGEROUS!!" Pigsy exclaims, pushing the spear tip away from Tang.

"it's not JUST A SPEAR!! IT'S NEZHAS FIRE-TIPEED SPEAR!!" Mk exclaims, how can they NOT believe him!?

Everyone paused for a moment and started laughing, Mei falls over on on of the tables, Tang places his bowl down so he doesn't drop it and Pigsy just throws his head back and laughs.

"You aren't listening to me! Demon Bull King is out there! We need to get the Spear back to Nezha! or better yet get the Monkey King! It's the REAL DEAL!! I'LL PROVE IT!!" Mk yells out with a pout.

"Oh yeah? How?" Pigsy asks him with a raised eyebrow.

Mk is quiet for a moment, yeah.....HOW was he going to prove it??? "Uhhhhhhh" Mk lags out, holding up the spear, not a moment later the tip bursts into flames and shoots a beam of fire at at the table Mei and Tang were seated at, causing them to jump back in shock, the table burning to ash in a few seconds at best.

Everyone is shocked silent as they stare at the flaming pile of ash that used to be a Table between Tang and Mei.

Instantly afterwards, Tangs nerd mode activates as he starts babbling nonsense before finally saying proper words. "N-N-N-N-N-NEZHAS FIRE-TIPPED SPEAR!!" He exclaims bolting over and Mk and holding his arm up as he babbles on. "I-I KNEW IT ALL ALONG!! THE LEGENDARY WEAPON OWNED AND WIELDED BY THE CELESTIAL PROTECTION DEITY OF CHILDREN AND MEMBER OF THE CELESTIAL COURT NEZHA!! SAID TO PRODUCE FLAMES THAT BURN AT A TEMPERATURE AS HOT AS THE SUN, AND ONLY ALLOWS THOSE WHOM IT DEEMS WORTHY TO WEILD- W-wait a minute......why do you have it???"

"Alright i'll buy it, if the staff is here than where is the Demon Bull King now?" Pigsy asks them, if his kid was in danger he NEEDED to know!

"He's at the shoe store" Mei answers that question for them while swiping through he phone.

"WHAT!?" The trio exclaim in unison running over to Mei and looking at her phone.

"THIS HAD BETTER NOT BE ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR PUPPY VIDEOS MEI!!" Pigsy says seriously with narrowed eyes.

"HAHAH!! There's always time for a puppy video! buuut no" Mei chuckles, swiping down until she stops at a post with a young human male with short brown hair and a blue shirt, pointing at a large hulking Purple Bull Demon they can only assume is the Demon Bull King, the post caption reading 'OOOOOK! MY BOI DBK REAL!!'.

"Bull Demon just started trending, #DemonBullKing" Mei says, swiping down to more posts with several other instances of DBKs appearances.

One of which was taken by a fairly old man looking around his 30's who seemed to be waiting in line for something, looking at DBK angrily with the caption 'This #Jerk cut in line!'.

Another post was actually a live video being taken by a women named 'AzureThunder' who was filming DBK cutting to the front of the line with Red Son.

The Store owner, Patrick Seitz, was grabbing shoes, checking them out, and re boxing them faster than the speed of light, it's incredible how quickly he could do it, you can tell he;s been doing this awhile.

"Ehem, we're here for the new Deelzebub Shoes" Red Son announces himself.

"Yeah, you and everyone else, head to the back of the line" Patrick sighs, pointing to the exit, these line cutters were really starting to get on his nerves.

"....Do you know who HE is?" Red Son says in an angry threatening tone. "Thats THE DBK you're talking to!"

DBK just sighed and picking his Son up by the head and put him lifted him away from the counter before putting him down, he'll handle this himself.

"Oh yeah thats cool, why don't you tell the people at THE BACK OF THE LI-" Patricks angry complaint was short lived as he gets a good look at the demon infront of him, realising just how screwed e might be.

"...I am DEMON BULL KING! Scourge of the NETHERWORLD, and i WILL be taking those shoes!" DBK speaks with an authoritative tone, leaning down to head height with Patrick, whom was shaking like a leaf.

"A-Ah......You s-still have to wait in line.....i'm sorry" Patrick says fearfully as his body shakes in terror, wow, he really is loyal to his shops rules and standards.

"You will be" DBK snarls, the furnace on his chest opening as it starts to such up all the shoes and other unfortunate items in the area, increasing his strength tenfold, everyone ducks for cover and shoes and other small objects coming flying past them.

DBK almost seems to grow in size and he absorbs all the shoes in the store, roaring fiercely, all while Red Son stares up in awe at his father in pure admiration.

A golden shoe and is pulled from it's case and grabbed by DBK before it can land in the furnace, holding it up and looking it over he smirks. "Do you know whats better than limited edition?.......ONE OF A KIND!!" He laughs, him and Red Son now wearing Deelzebub Shoes while, DBK laughs manically (in STYLE!!), while Red Son strikes a squatting pose looking like a total BAD ASS WHILE DOING IT!!

Watching the Live video Mk and the others stare in shock.

Damn........Red Son really can rock ANY outfit can't he? Not gonna lie he actually looks kinda- NOPE!! BAD THOUGHTS BAD THOUGHTS!! BAD MK!! NO SWOONING OVER THE ENEMY!!
.
.
.
.
It has been a few hours at best since the DBK shoe store thing, it well around morning, and what is the FIRST THING that appears on Mks feed when he checks his phone!? DBK COMPLETELY TEARING UP THE CITY AND SUCKING UP EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!

It seems that the more he absorbed the more powerful he became, he's gotten a WHOLE LOT BIGGER TO!! AS IF HE WASN'T SCARY ENOUGH!!!

Getting into action (Not before freshening up, getting dressed and having breakfast), everyone was forced to cram themselves into the Newly fixed Delivery Car and drive full speed to BUDDHA KNOWS WHERE!!

"PIGSY SLOW DOWN!! YOU'RE GONNA KILL US!!" Tang exclaims at his husband, was trying to get them all killed!?

"YEAH!! We gotta get to Flower Fruit Mountain WITHOUT Getting smooshed in a Car crash! All we gotta do is drive through an entire ocean! SIMPLE!" Mk adds, oh sweet Mk you were TO PURE FOR THIS WORLD!!

"GUYS!! DEMON BULL KINGS MOVED ON TO DOWN TOWN!! HE'S DESTROYING THE CHEESE TEA STALLS!!" Mei yells in out distress, causing Mk to panic, NOT THE CHEESE TEA STALLS!!

"All the more reason to seek out Monkey King On Flower Fruit Mountain!" Mk exclaims in affirmation. "It's the only place he could be! And we can't get this Spear to Nezha because he's in the Celestial Realm! Right dad?"

"hmm, Indeed, however, Flower Fruit Mountain is hidden away in deep and dangerous and unknown territory..." Tang says in his serious nerd voice. "....SO I guess we better turn back!!" He says sheepishly.

"WHAT!?" Mk and Mei exclaim in shock.

"Eh Shut it ya big baby!" Pigsy sighs, pushing Tangs away by the head. "I know a guy that can take us there, the most dangerous, deadly, RAGE FILLED warrior i've ever known.."

Pigsy suddenly makes an abrupt stop and Tokyo drift park infront of a ship sitting by a sea porch.

".......Sandy......"

The ship itself was unsettling all together, the creaking of of one of the doors only added to that ambiance.
.
.
.
After being invited inside by Sandy, a River Demon, they were sat down on the couch as the hulking River Demon prepared something for them, processing the information provoded by Pigsy.

"Thats a lot to take in" He says, placing a meat cleaver down on the counter, his muscles flexing and relaxing as he turns out to face them. "You know what i do to people who disrupt the peace?"

His sharp glare shot through them like a bullet as he met their gazes, Mei, Mk and Tang all shivering in slight fear and discomfort as he walked toward them, his towering form casting a shadow upon them.

".......Serve em tea!" Sandy suddenly blurted out whole heartedly with a tray of Tea in his hands, a warm smile on his face, a Cat hanging onto his sholder, completely changing the tense mood within the Nanosecond after he said that. "You guys want some?

Sandy went around offering people tea, which they politely declined, Mk slightly worried it might be poisoned, why? Cause paranoia! Tang being the only one who actually accepted the Tea.

"Don't mind if i do! 'Certain Moodle Shop owners' could learn a lot from your hospitality Sandy" Tang says in a 'Matter-of-fact' tone, eyeing Pigsy with a smug grin.

"'sigh' Your right Piggy, this guy's dangerous.....HE'LL KILL US WITH CUTENESS!!" Mei giggles, placing a cat on Pigsys head.

"heh, it's my own blend of Anti-Stress Fruits, really brings the heart-rate down!" Sandy chuckles answering Tangs question about his tea.

"Enough!" Pigsy snarls, scaring the many cats off of him. "Sandy, what happened to you!? Wheres the angry, glass crewing, fist throwing buddy i used to know!?"

"Uhhh well my therapist said i really needed to calm down, thats why i started drinkin tea, doing yoga, and investing in therapy cats, really helps!" Sandy explains, picking up Pigsy from onto top of the table and putting him on the ground carefully.

A blue cat with an orange Mohawk jumps up at Sandy and lands in his hands, nuzzling against him affectionately. "Daaaw don't chu Mo? hehehe!"

"Um, mister Sandy sir" Mei says, tugging on his waistband a bit to get his attention before going done on her knees and looks up at him with Puppy dog eyes. "We could really your your help, gotta get to Fwowerfrwt Mowtain"

Mk soon joins in doing exactly the same thing. "Pwease? The fate of the world is at stake"

"Ok" Sandy says without hesitation in the most Zen voice they have ever heard from a Demon.

"...really?" Mk asks him confused and slightly surprised it was that easy.

"Anything for Pigsy" Sandy responds cheerfully. "I can get you there but i ain't a pleasant trip" He warns, Mei and Mk just cheer in victory.

"YES YES YES YES YES!!" Him and Mei cheer in sync as they rebound around in circles like kids on a sugar rush.

"Alright, lets get movin!" Sady says, he turns to Pigsy with a worried look. "I'm tellin you know old friend, if things get hairy, I've changed, I don't go round picking fights no more"

Pigsy just sighs and sits back down on the coach.

"MO! Activate the launch sequence!" Sandy says to his Cat, who jumps off his sholder and runs off somehwre.

"Launch sequence?" Mei questions, looking at Mk.

Meanwhile, Mo had run into the main control room and smacked a button with his paw, the boat soon begins to shake a bit as the engine begins to start, several thrusters and rockets begin to energe from the outside of the Boat, readying them for sailing.

Sandy steps up to the main control room and firmly grasps the steering wheel. "Onwards to Flower Fruit Mountain!" He exclaims whole-heartedly as the thrusters activate and the boat gets moving, gliding across the water like a plane through the sky as the gang make their way to Flower Fruit Mountain.

None of which notice a Bull Clone spying on them from the shadows.

Cause that same Bull Clone, had just retailed the information over to Red Son, bowing at his feet ontop the rooftops, looking ovee his fathers devestation with glee.

His good mood soon turning sour as he is told the news, he growls in anger, fists clenched, and fire alight. "WHAT!? YOU LET THEM GET AWAY!?"

"Daww so your plan didn't go according to plan hmm?" PIF asks teasingly, materialising within the wind and fling down next to him, usung her wind to bring his closer, she grabs his face playfully. "Oh don't worry my sweet useless boy! Mother will get the staff, i'm not about to let anyone stop us" She sighs, leting go of him and floating upwards, hovering midair.

"...Not this time" She snarls, disappearing into the gust of the wind, following the trail toward the Flaming Mountains where she will wait for her prey to come to her.

In the middle of the ocean Sandys boat sailed along the horizon in the direction of Flower Fruit Mountain, a small Butterfly having following and landing on top of the boat, watching Mk train with the spear a bit.

"Halt Evil Monster! I must twat thee! For I AM THE LOTUS Ki-AAAA!!" Mk yelps as the Spear suddenly shot a beam of fire behind him, narrowly missing Mei's head by mere inches and blowing a hole in the railings next to her.

"WHEW THAT WAS AWESOME!!" Mei cheered jumping up from the ground and to her feet.

"Ahhhhhh! Sorry Mei!" Mk apologised profusely, picking up the spear, having dropped it in his moment of shock, he nearly turned his bestie into a barbecue! A very overcooked one at that!

As if mocking him the Spear suddenly shots out a stream of flames like a rocket engine and rickashayed up from the ground and hit him in the face the moment he touched it, causing him to fall back in pain.

From his laid down position Mk saw something shiny glimmering from behind him, he narrowed his eyes to get a better look and finds the one and only Flower Fruit Mountain upon the horizon, THEY MADE IT!!

"W-Where here!!" Mk exclaims joyously, shooting up to his feet excitedly, rushing to the edge of the boat and leaning over it a bit to get a better look at hit. "Flower fruit Mountain! EAHHH!!" he yelps as the boat is suddenly jerked by a geyser, almost throwing him off, but he catches himself.

As the boat slingshots back upright a box gets thrown off the boat and into the water, everyone catches their footing and makes a move to see what had hot them, soon finding infront of them, standing between them and the mountain, was a Reef of lava and volcanic wastes.

"Welcome to the Flaming Mountains gang! A volcanic ring surrounds the mountain making it virtually impossible to pass!" Sandy explains, makes sense why he was warning them this might be a dangerous trip.

"This path is the only safe way through, this is as close as the boat can get......just.....be careful" Sandy speaks right before they exited the boat to continue on foot.

Pigsy walked with his arms crossed, muttering random insults at Sandy, resenting the fact Tang stayed behind cause of his 'Weak ankles'. "Sigh'......What did i do to deserve this NOODLE GODS!?"

He's startled out from his ranting by a geyser going in front of him, scaring him half to death, THIS IS NO PLACE FOR KIDS!!!

"CAREFUL PIGGY!!" Mei stampers out worriedly, last thing she wants is Mks Dadsy getting deep fried into bacon. "you gotta wonder why Monkey King decided to live HERE of all places"

Mei and Pigsy sudden gasp as they see PIF hovering just behind an unsuspecting Ml, trying to gain his attention but ultimately failing as Mk was trapped in his own ramblings.

"You know when Monkey King had to get through the flaming mountains he actually used Princess Iron Fans Fan to-" Mk is cut off from his educational ramblings by the sound of laughter behind him.

"Hmhmhehehehahaha, Well well well, aren't you a little Monkey King Fan boy?" PIF chuckles in a sarcastic tone.

Tapping a nearby Geyser of fire with her fan the tip f the fan catches alight, and with a simple swing of her fan a large fireball is suddenly shot toward them. The 3 of them manage to doge in time but and knocked off their feet from the shockwave.

Mei and Mk land harshly on the ground, and the first thing Pigsy does when he's up is check to see of they're alright. "KIDS!! EVERYONE OK!?" He exclaims panicked, checking them over as they sit up.

"Hahahahaha!.....I'll be taking that Spear now~" PIF chuckles, and evil grin on her face as she holds out a hand to take the spear, though it's more a mocking gesture as she knows damn well they aren't going to give it to her without a struggle.

"This belongs to the Third Lotus Prince! There's no way i'm letting you take it!" Mk snarls, getting to his feet.

"A please! As if he's going to miss ONE little spear! He already has a new one after all~" PIF chuckles.

"It's not about the fact it belongs to him, more the fact that the power within it is to dangerous for the likes of YOU and your Family to have!" Mk shoots back, getting into a fighting stance.

"Awww is the little noodle boy plan on being a HERO?" PIF laughs mockingly. "Sorry to disappoint, but paying is OVER"

Without second thought, despite his fathers desperate pleas for him to stop, Mk charges forward and jumps at PIF, spear in hand, ready to land a blow on her.

"KID NO!!"

Mk yells as he swings the Spear at her will all his might, merely looking at him with an unimpressed look within a swirl of flames the gauntlet Red Son used to pick up the spear sudden appears on her hand and blocks the blow with nothing but a single finger, shocking Mk silent, HA! As if she's stupid enough to come here without it! She may be a fallen Celestial Maiden, but not even she's immune to the flames produced by the Spears judgment.

"What" Mk utters out in complete shock and horror as PIF just looks up at him unimpressed.

Her fingers suddenly shift and snap closed around the spear, a sudden force hits him all across his body as he's sent flying through the air from the invisible force, sent flying back and, from Mei and Pigsys point of view, right into a flaming geyser.

"NO!! MK!!" Mei yells out in horror, trying to reach for him but is held back and picked up by Pigsy right before she walking right into another geyser.

"NO!" Pigsy yells out in devastation, i-it....it couldn't be.......oh buddhas grace.....how was he going to tell the news to Tang!?

Having no choice but to run before they to were burned alive he utters out a quiet 'Sorry kid' before sprinting back the way they came.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!! AT LAST!! THE FULL POWER OF MY BELOVED WILL BE UNLEASHED!!" PIG laughs manically as she disperse in a gust of wind.

Back on the boat, now sailing away from the ask producing eternally flaming reef of volcanic mountains, Pigsy stood by the railing, staring at his own reflection with the water, grief and denial rooted deep within his heart as it aches with sorrow.

"He can't be gone, h-he Can't" Pigsy utters out in complete sorrow and disbelief, Great Buddha WHAT WAS HE THINKING BRING THE KID HERE!? A SENSABLE PARENT WOULDN'T DO THAT!!

"I'm sorry Pigsy...." Sandy says sorrowfully, placing a hand on his sholde,r he may not have known the kid long, but all life was meant to be cherished, and he was someone important to Pigsy, that made it hurt all the more.

"There was nothing we could do" Tang speaks up, back facing him with his hands behind his back.

".....Nothing......NOTHING!?" Pigsy yells angrily, storming up to Tang and grabbing him by the collar of his robe. "I COULD'VE DONE SOMETHING!! I SHOULD'VE-....I SHOULD HAVE PROTECTED MK!!"

Tangs expression said it all, h was just as devastated as Pigsy at Mks 'death', he's lost many things, his mother, his father, but his son? That was a whole new world of hurt.

".....It's over....." Pigsy utters out in defeat, tears rolling down his cheeks.

"...it's not over" Tang responds, hand placed under Pigsys chin and raising his head to meet his gaze. "We can't help Mk.....but we CAN make sure no more lives are lost.....make sure his acrifice wasn't in vein...."

Letting go of Pigsys face to allow him to step back and have some space Sandy walks up behind him and places a comforting hand on his sholder.

".....Someone has to fight..." Mei speaks up in a blank tone, rubbing the tears from her eyes as she turns around, pure unbridled rage in her gaze. "That demon bully, is going to....."

Her expression suddenly shifts to a wide, closed eye grin, that hid his overflowing anger worthy of that of a dragon, a green dragon appearing within the a flash before turning back to Mei.

".....P A Y...." Mei utters out, green lighting striking through the sky behind her.

"Then what are we waiting for!? LETS GO STOP SOME BAD GUYS!!" Sandy yells out motiivatingly as he starts his boat again and starts driving to back toward the city.
.

Back in the city, PIF bowed before her beloved with the spear in hand, with a wide smirk from DBK, the spear began to levitate and sudden shot toward the furnace in his chest.

The spear almost seemed to resist as it was caught on the edges, being turned at different angles as it was being forced in, but it mattered not, for although the Spear itself was indestructible, and would not fade in the furnaces might, it was only a matter of time before it was finally absorbed, and the unlimited energy it provided was his to command!

A beam of green and purple light shot up into the sky as DBK absorbed the Spears power, growing exponentially in size and strength tenfold, his right hand turning into a cannon, and blasters appeared on his shoulders, all while the spear lay hovering within his chest,as it unlimited energy was used for purposes unwilling of such as divine weapon.

All while Red Son stared up at his father in awe and glee as he grew and grew with each drop of power he absorbed.

And at shooting a beam of purple fire up into the sky, the Demon Bull Kings conquest, had begun.
.

.
On the beach of Flower Fruit Mountain, lay Mks unconscious form, monkeys from the wilderness coming out from the trees to inspect the new visitor on the shore.

One of the monkeys poke him in the face with a stick, and with an exhausted groan Mk cracks an eye open, looking up at the clear blue sky, a pale white monkey staring down at him. Gasping as he comes to his senses he stares up at the monkey in shock, the monkey just groaned and gave him an unimpressed look as more monkeys sneak into his vision and surround him these ones with mischievous grins.

They soon swarmed his and started inspecting his thoroughly, picking at his hair, tugging at his Orange, Lotus logo Hoodie and messng with his bandana, one even tried to tug off his shoe.

Managing to throw them all off and scaring them away with some poor excuse of Kung Fu, Mk looks out at the horizon toward the sea and finds the Flaming Mountains in the distance, thunder clapping within the clouds, gripping his head as he recollects the events that had happened a few moments ago with PIF and the spear. He frantically looks at his surroundings, finding he was on a beach, a large mountain towering high above him.

"whoa......Flower Fruit Mountain" Mk utters to himself, HE MADE IT!! HE ACTUALLY MADE IT!!

With that be began his climb, trudging through the large untamed forest, and scaling the rocky cliffs of the mountain. Eventually hoisting himself up onto the top of a cliff, laying down on his stomach exhausted, groaning in slight discomfort as 2 monkeys jump on and off of his head to toward an area in front of him. Looking up he found himself in front of the majestic waterfall, the very waterfall Monkey kings home was hidden behind.

Getting up be carefully hopped onto each of the rocks, trying his best not to fall in as he approached the waterfall. Stopping right in front of it he slowly reached out a hand, the moment his hand made contact with the water a seal appeared before him, shifting from a golden, circlet symboled one to a Golden, Lotus patterned one, the waterfall parts majestically, revealing a cavern on the other side.

Stepping inside as the waterfall closed behind him he calls out to see if anyone else was here, traversing over the paths and bridges of the plant rich cavern he calls out to Monkey King. Soon approaching what looking to be a mural depicted the Pilgrims.

Staring up at it with awe he looks it over, soon noticing Monkey King, whom was still in his Pilgrim attire, painting on the mural with Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, and Ao Lie, he can't help but notice how much the Monk and the Pig Demon look so much like his Dads.

"Whoa, Hey thats the Monkey King!" He says to himself, Dad would have PASSED OUT from sheer joy if he ever saw this place!........wonder how he and Dadsy are doing.....

"Sun Wukong"

A wispy voice shrills out as the eyes of the Monkey King painting suddenly start glowing before it stops mere seconds after. While staring at it confused Mk felt a burning sensation in his eyes, he brings up his hands and rubs it hiss a bit before snapping them open, the burning sensation gone and instead replaced by a warm tingling sensation as his vision is shrouded in gold.

"Wha- HUH!?" Mk gasps in shock and confusion, almost stumbling back as he looks around frantically. "What- Wha- Whats happening!? Wha- Aaaaaaaahhhhhh! Whats wrong with my eyes!?"

His vision eventually trails back to the mural, which was now glowing, the scratched off parts, eroded with time now fully revealed and no longer hidden by age.

Bits and pieces of Monkey King and, surprisingly, Nezhas past flashed before his eyes. the moments Monkey King was born from his stone, when Nezha was first born and incarnated into the Demon Pearl by the rouge celestial worrier.

Monkey King getting his staff, joining the Pilgrims, and his many many foes.

Nezhas training, his battle with Ao Bing, and his rebirth.

The last vision was of the Pilgrims, hovering above him wrapped in scroll, at peace with themselves and the universe.

Mk felt a precense behind him, turning around he found what seemed to be Monkey King standing behind him at the mouth of a cavern leading to another section of the area.

"M-Monkey King!" Mk stutter out, following Monkey King as he ran through the Cave mouth and into the other room. "H-Hey wait up!"

Monkey King stops at the end of the long rocky tunnel, looking at him with a smile.

Monkey King! It's really-" Mk calls out, reaching for him, only for his hand to phase right through him, as Monkey Kings for dissipates into a cloud of golden smoke, the gold effect on his vision fading away with him, returning his world to colour.

Looking up from his hand in confusion he looks up the House sitting atop a large rocky mount within the Cavern, the place looking long abandoned.

"....Monkey King?" Mk calls out, his voice echoing through the Cavern, but all that comes in response was silence and the soft sound of the leaves swaying in the tree next to the house.

Feeling a pang of disappointment Mk hangs his head, growling a bit as he kicks a rock, all that way FOR NOTHING!? Where was he!? Did he no longer live here? Or was the story of the Monkey really just made up after all, and he was merely guided by his own delusions!?

"...ugggghhh what was i thinking!?......." Mk sighs and sits down, head to his knees, resting on his arms. "For a moment there i thought......'sigh' .....Dad wad right....I really am delusional..."

Within his moment of sorrow a Butterfly lands on his arms, the small unknown weight on his arms causing Mk to lift his head up and look at what caused it, finding the Butterfly staring at him intently, before doing something.....UNEXPECTED!!

".....SUP!!" The Butterfly suddenly spoke, causing Mk to shriek and jump back, the 'Butterfly' to fly up and land on the ground infront of him.

"Yes yes! It is I, the Monkey Ki-" Before it could even get the chance to finish it gets smushed by Mks foot as he stomps one of his feet on it in pure reflex.

"Is it dead???" Mk stammered out fearfully, lifting up his foot, the hell was that!? DID THAT BUTTERFLY JUST TALK!? DEMON BUTTERFLY!!!

The 'Butterfly' suddenly started glowing before transforming into several animals, going from an Eagle, to a Tiger, than a Bear, and finally, revealing it's true-form as an unmistakable, Ginger furred, Humanoid Primate.

He stood up straight, arms crossed with a slack, laid back smile.

"M-M-Monkey King!?" Mk stutter out, Oh great Buddha HE JUST TRAMPED THE MONKEY KING!!.

"Yyyyep! The One and only!.....Now where's my staaaaaff oh wait! Here it is!" He speaks in a laid back voice, pulling his Staff from his ear and holding it in a slack grip in his left arm. "there we go! Was getting a bit itchy in there.....now than! I heard some commotion goin on outside about Demon Bull King being back! So uh.....Wheres that spear that was used to seal him away?"

Those words seemed to cause Mk to freeze for a bit....oh yes...the spear.....the spear that he lost......the very spear that he was supposed to keep away from the Demon Bull Family but instead wound up handing it right to them.....that spear......oh Buddha he feels tears comin on!

Mk immediately went down on his knees and did the BIGGEST APOLOGY BOW HE HAD EVER DONE IN HIS LIFE TO ANYONE OTHER THAN HIS DADS WHILE SOBBING. "I'M SO SORRY!!!! I TRIED TO BRING IT TO YOU AND ASK FOR YOUR HELP BUT PRINCESS IRON FAN CAME AND TOOK IT!! S-SHE'S GOT THIS GLOVE A-AND-"

....Wow.......needless to say Wukong was NOT expecting the kid to have a mental break down, it's making his parental instincts kick in, it's like when he sees one of his Monkeys getting really upset or hurt, he just has the sudden urge to pamper and care for them til their better, gotta hand it to the kid though, he's real polite and sincere, man Nezhys gonna LOVE HIM!!

"I-I know i know!" Wukong reassures him. "Look, ima come clean.....i've been kinda watching you...." ......Ok yeah that really was creepy now that he says it out loud.....

".....What?" Mk says, face morphing into one of confusion before morphing into realisation, that strange butterfly on the boat, that weird ladybug he found when he woke up this morning, the bird that- WAIT A DAMN MINUTE!!

"Wait WHAT!? THAT WAS YOU!?" Mk exclaims in shock, it was HIM who pecked him off the pipe!?

"HA!! HO HO THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE!! YOU'RE PERFECT!!" Wukong laughs childishly......ok.....he's beginning to see why Nezha dislikes him so much in the stories.....BUT BY BUDDHA HE SO COOL!!

"Uh....perfect for what?" Mk questioned.

"Well it's a bit of a surprise really, I'll tell ya when you beat DBK!" Wukong says in a laid back tone......wait WHAT!?

"Wait- WHAT!? What do you mean when i beat DBK!? You're not helping!?" Mk exclaims in shock.

"Listen kid, you fought demons, and didn't die, you picked up the spear, and didn't die, not just anyone can lift that old thing, it's got quite an attitude with people it doesn't deem worthy! So if it let you pick it up, it must have seen somethin in ya!" Wukong explains, rummaging through a pile of stuff and pulling out a packet of Peach Flavoured chips, opening the back and munching on some.

"B-But what about DBK!?" Mk exclaims, how was HE....a NOODLE BOY.....going to stop THAT!?

"Pfffft, what about DBK? You can handle it! Consider it a trial!" Wukong chuckles, laying down on his Nimbus and munching on chips, had all those years cooped up in here turned him brain to mush or something!? AND A TRIAL FOR WHAT!?

"B-but i-....'sigh'....." Mk sighed sorrowfully, there was no way he could do something like that!? He wasn't some, immortal deity or a powerful being like Wukong or the Deities of Heaven! It was THEM who defeated DBK in the past! Who could a lowly mortal do what the Gods could?

Wukong notices his sudden drop down the hill of emotion and sighs, jumping off his Nimbus and walking over to him. "Look, if you could lift the spear, you can use it! Just believe in yourself!" He states, placing his hands on the kids shoulders comfortingly.

"Even a smidge....makes all the difference" He continues, oh dear, his pilgrimage was showing!

The speech seemed to lift the kids spirits as a small half-smile crept to his face.

"The spear was taken from you...TAKE IT BACK!" Wukong gave final words of inspiration with a determined look on his face, arms cross.

With his spirits and confidence now lifted Mk had run out of the cave and back down the mountain, down the path he had......somehow missed before, and down to the beach......and it was there he realised he was actually stranded on the island with no way back.

"....HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET BACK!!" Mk exclaimed panicked, right.....he really did not think this through....

He notices some Monkeys prodding at something washed up on the beach, it was the box that was flung off of Sandys boat back at the Flaming Mountains, wonder if there's anything useful inside.

The hopping of one of the monkeys eventually causes the Box to unfold, some sand getting kicked up as the pieces land on the ground, once the sand clears he finds that there was a CUSTOM MADE RED RACING JET INSIDE!! What are the chances of THAT happening in his situation!?

"WHO HOHOHO AWWWW YEAH!!" Mk squeals in joy as he hops inside the jet, but the moment he looks at the console he finds a large array of hundreds of buttons, levers and switches. "uuuuuhhhhhh....can't be to hard t fly! It's for ages 8 and up!" He chuckles nervously, pressing a random button, which promptly activates the Jet, it hovers above the ground as the engines rev up.....yeah this might have been a mistake, and his thoughts were right as the jet sudden lurched forward and took off at light speed into the distance.

Back within the ruined city, DBK was blasting away at everything in sight, leaving so structure spared from his wrath, Bull Clones descended down onto the ruined streets, seeking out any survivors within what remained of the city.

Speeding down the road, within a newly modified delivery truck, Pigsy rammed into some Bull Clones full speed, but not without screaming his lungs out with everyone else, THIS WAS CRAZY!! WERE THEY ACTUALLY DOING THIS RIGHT NOW!?

One Bull Clone rolls up in a FRICKING TANK and locks onto them, and the moment they press the button 3 barrels come shooting out of the compartment.

"OH NO!! THEIR SECRET WEOPEN!! BARRELS!!" Tang exclaims fearfully as Pigsy swerves around the barrels, they explode on impact with the floor, rubble and rocks. Pigsy unfortunately ends up crashing the car, but not before thy all jump out and land in the superhero lineup and pose, alright, TIME TO LET OUT ALL THAT FATHERLY RAGE YOU'VE GOT PENT UP!!

Within the swirl of fire Red SOn appears before them, gauntlet in hand. "So, you wanna be heroes huh?" He sneers, sending them a sharp glare of arrogance.

"Let me show you what happens to Heroes!" Red Son cackles, his body combusting as a large heatwave of flames shoots through the area, it felt as though the fire itself was staring at them unblinking, damn it, if he's anything like his Mom he'll be a really piece of work.

"RRRRRAAAHH! I'VE BOUT HAD IT UP TO HERE WITH THESE DEMON PUN-" Pigsy yells in anger taking a few steps forward, ready to thrash the kid around when Mei stops him in his tracks.

".....I'll handle this one..." She says in a cold, apathetic tone as she steps forward. An aura of Green energy surrounds her as what seems to be a silhouette of the dragons appears behind her, been awhile since she's used this bad boy, was saving it for a special occasion but.....this demon boy will have to-

Meis awesome, badass moment was interrupted by a large jet suddenly speeding over them and crash landing straight into Red Sons face in a commical fashion, an all to high pitched scream rigging out from the jet that Mei recognises almost immediately, landing on him several times before coming to a stop.

The other stare at the scene in shock at the complete brutality of the entire thing before seeing Mk climb out from the cockpit, Pigsy and Tang felt as though a void within them had just been filled as a spark of overwhelming emotion plowed through their hearts.

"KID!!" Pigsy exclaim, Tang pretty much in tears at this point.

Mei instantly rushes over and tackle hugs Mk. "MK!!" She yells as she makes contact, on the verge of tears herself. "Oh my goodness we SAW YOU blast into the fire! I-I thought you were all, like, 'PHewwwww! AHHHHH!!', b-but you're not!! Where'd you get a jet? Way to ruin it already! WAIT! MONKEY KING!! DID YOU FIND HIM!?"

Mei bombardment of questions left Mk a tad overwhelmed, so many questions yet only one answer.

"Y-Yeah! I DID!!" Mk says, still feeling a sense of excitment form the interaction with one of his all time heroes.

"So...Where is he?" Pigsy asks him.

"He said.....it's up to me.....to us..." Mk responds, leaving Pigsy and Tang gawking in disbelief, leaving the weight if the fate of the world on the shoulders of someone with a LITERAL CHILDS MINDSET AND INNOCENCE!? No one he never got a girlfriend! He'd make a terrible dad!!

".....welp.....thats Anti-Climactic" Mei deadpans before aloud boom catches all of their attention.

The Demon Bull King towered over them, his colossal form being FAR larger than it was when they left, Buddhas grace how could he have grown so much is such a short time!?

"...And HOW are we meant to fight THAT!?" Tang exclaims in utter confusion, them vs a literal Kaiju? Chances of success are slim.

Mk thinks hard for a moment, looking at his hands, thinking back on Monkey Kings words.

"Listen kid, you fought demons, and didn't die, you picked up the spear, and didn't die, not just anyone can lift that old thing, it's got quite an attitude with people it doesn't deem worthy! So if it let you pick it up, it must have seen somethin in ya!"

"Even a smidge....makes all the difference"

"The spear was taken from you...TAKE IT BACK!"

....Take it back.........THATS RIGHT!! From what they've seen, DBK gets his strength from absorbing rare items, and with the Spears invulnerability and infinite power supply, it was the perfect power source for him.

Mk clenches his fist tightly and looks up at the horizon where DBK wrought havoc. ".....We believe in ourselves....You clear the streets and get anyone out can find to safety......i'll stop the Demon Bull King..........somehow...."

"Yeah this jet probabaly would have been very useful" Mei adds, kicking the pile of trash the use to be the jet, cueing a motorbike to roll out of the rubble, ok NOW he understands why Red Son likes Multi-transformation vehicles.

"'GASP!' THAT'LL WORK!!" Mk practically beams in amazement.

"GO GET EM BUDDY!!" Mei cheers as Mk runs over to the motorbike and climbs on, shouldn't be to hard right? Mei rides one of these things! He's watched her do it on several occasions! Should be as hard as Rollerskating!

Revving up the engine he takes on the direction DBK is heading, dodging rubble and debris as he rides off into the distance, while the others get moving to help out any survivors, Pigsy knows damn well that there were plenty of people and demons dead, the destruction done to the city by DBK and the Bull Demon Family was to severe for there not to be, best they can do is help anyone they can.

Mk rides through the city toward DBK, down the barren and empty streets. DBK takes notice of the small movement in the corner of his eye, eyes landing on the little thief whom stole the Fire-Tipped Spear from him back within the cave of his concealment.

"The little thief returns" He sneers, aiming his arm cannon at him and firing, a beam of purple and green energy shooting towards Mk.

Dodging the several blasts sent in his direction, Mk eventually swerves and takes a ramp on top of a fallen over, sloped building and uses it as a ramp up to DBK. He flies off the end of it at full speed, the momentum shooting him through the air and towards DBK, he feels the wind whip past his face as fear crept to his core, but he stays strong.

His eye start to burn again as his vision goes gold, just like it did in Monkey Kings cave, the world around him seemed to stop, time coming to a complete halt.

"Uhhh what? Why is everything gold again?" Mk questions confused, why was he seeing this again? His gaze falls on DBK as he armour almost seemed to lift off his body, his flesh and organs becoming see through and invisible as his bones were all that were visible, like some form of Blueprints mixed with an anatomy diagram, the staff laying within the centre of the Demon Bull Kings chest within the furnace.

"Huh...the spear!" Mk exclaims as time seems to slowly unfreeze as his vision comes to colour once more, the effects of gravity taking hold of his body as he begins to move again, he lands on DBKs cannon and rides up it, once getting to a certain point he lifts his legs up, planting them securely on the seat of the motorbike and jumping off of it once he gets close enough and throws himself toward DBKs chest.

As he falls he finds the spear sitting within the centre, surrounded by swirling blue and green rings covered in markings. Mks nerves and brain were screaming at him, somehow, he knew, that what was about to happen, was going to HURT.

A flash of gold erupts from DBKs chest as Mk falls inside of it, the ground under DBK breaks apart from the shockwave sent out from a sudden burst of energy, it felt as though Mks body was being torn apart atom by atom, his skin burning like fire as he felt as though his body was slowly breaking apart as pain erupted through his body, he can't even scream as his body disappears, leaving his energy behind, to mend what has been broken, and improve what has been lost.

Sandy grabs Pigsy and the others and uses his body as a shield to protect them from the falling rubble.

DBKs yells soon turn to twisted laughter, thats one less pest to worry about, no, truly NO ONE CAN STOP HIM IN HIS CONQUEST!!

"NOW THIS WORLD IS TRULY MINE!!" He yells out in triumph and he continues on his way down the barren, and ruined city, all while Pigsy and the other watch is shock and sorrow wothin the distance......he lost him again.......

DBK soon came to a stop as one of the few un touched sections of the long evacuated city (What remained of it at least) stood before him, he charged up his cannons to fire when a sudden rush of pain pulsed through his chest, causing DBK to buckle over in pain.

'W-What is this!?" He yells in shock as he grips his chest as the pulses of pain get worse and more frequent by the second, it felt as though something was slowly prying itself out form his core, a loud crack audible from within the furnace as something drops out from his chest.

A large sized stone Bud lands on the ground, the grooves and bumps ringing the object reminding him of a Lotus bud. The stone cracks as the bumps seem to move, before it split open like a flower and a been of golden light shot out from it, something soon shot out from it as it hover above him in the air, shining as brightly as the Sun.

These energies, they felt familiar yet.....mixed, like someone stuck them within a blender and mixed them together into something unrecognisable, but the familiarity was clear as day, and one of the energies shone brighter and pulsed stronger than the other.

"...P-Prince Nezha?" DBK stutters out in utter shock as he gazed upon the being in the sky, a vision flashed before his eyes of the Lotus prince hovering within the sky, spear in hand, and an aura he or intimidation surrounding him, a moment from the past, during Wukongs journey with the pilgrims.

It fades back to now, the little thief taking his place in the present time, his consciousness coming to as he opens his eyes in shock, he's here? He's alive? He doesn't know what happening but....his soul.....and his being....it all feels natural to him....like he's been doing this all his life.....

He holds his hand up, Golden flames surrounding his hand, as he moves it to his side, the Fire-Tipped Spear appearing in his grip, flames creep over his arms and form a Sash of flames around his shoulders.

Within a slit of a second he suddenly charges forward toward DBK, moving so fast he could be mistaken for teleporting. His fist collides with DBKs chest, and with the sheer force along, sends DBK flying across the charred wasteland of the city.

Using his claws to slow his movement backwards DBK fires his shoulder canons at Mk.

"WHOOP! MISSED ME!! OVER HERE!" Mk mocks mischievously as he dodges every blast and blow, one nearly nicking him by a hair. He aims his spear and shoots a beam of fire in DBKs direction, the heat from the flames not as potent as Nezhas, merely giving his slight 1st degree burns in certain areas, but the force if the blast cased him to tumble over on his knees and hands.

Using his flaming ribbons he wraps them around a nearby building and tears the top clean off, later lifting his spear and hovering it above him as his ribbons retract, soon shooting toward DBK as he tried to get up, extending and coiling around his body, restraining his limbs and keeping him in place.

Some memories flash into DBKs mind as moments from similer experiences come to him, when Sun Wukong trapped him under the mountain, and the time, far farther in the past, when Nezha had bound him in his sash, the feeling of his head rolling off his shoulders over, and over, and over again still fresh in his mind.

"No" DBK utters as Mk raising the building over his head and pushed it down with all his force. "NOT AGAIN!!!" He yells as he musters the strength to fight against the Flaming sash and braces his hands against the building as it slammed down on his being, just like the mountain.

"GgrrrrrRRRRRAAAHHH! ENOUGH!!!" DBK yells as he fires a beam of Purple and Green energy from his chest, destroying the building and the flaming Sash binding him. The beam hits Mk square on, weakening him as he falls, not a moment after, being side punched across the city by DBK full force.

His back his a wall as ringing envelops his ears, his vision blurry, the blurry figure of DBK approaches from the distance.

"You thought you could stand against me!?" His voice bellows, so loud it could be heard from where Mk was. "I, am the DEMON BULL KING!! I will not let a little THIEF take my VICTORY FROM MT GRASP!!"

Mks gaze shifts to a nearby arcade advertisement billboard, 'Monkey Mech Fights XlV', an idea sudden comes to Mks mind as he gazes.

"Just believe in yourself...even a smidge make all the difference" Monkey Kings voice rings out though his head.

As DBK laughs Mk forces his hand out from the wall, hand clenched around the Spear.

"HAHAHAHAHA!! You might have that Celestials brats Spear, but you are NOT The Lotus Prince!" DBK snarls, his hulking, kaiju form looming over him and he frees himself from the wall.

"You're right...." Mk feels a rush of adrenaline and determination shoot through his body. "I'm the LOTUS KID!!"

He twirls his staff and slams it into the ground, a flash of golden light forms and the nearby floor breaks apart, the very material changing to that of metal as it begins to form something new entirely.

First the torso, riddles with armour, than the legs, than the arms, 4 emerging from the torso, than finally the head popped out from the torso, eyes glowing golden, the flames that made up Mks sash reforming into a sash hovering over the Mechs shoulders as flaming wheels made from fire appear under the Mechs feet, the Spear increases in side to better fit the Mechs size as it grips the spear tightly.

Mk sat in the Cockpit of the Mech, hands grabbing the controls. "It's time for you and your family to be brought to justice!!" Mk yells out as the mech follows his every command, moving as if an extension of his being.

"HERE COMES LOTUS KID!!" Mk yells out as he charges at DBK, spear raised, flames enveloping the weapon.

He hits DBK head on, the shock wave of flames and force so intense it felt as though the planet itself had shook, and the planets had shifted and altered their course.

Every ounce of energy had been knocked out of the Demon Bull King all at once as his weakened form shrunk down to his original size, kneels buckling as he fell to his knees, most of his armour falling off as he clutches his chest. "I-im-...Possible...." He wheezes out, it felt as though his insides were bruised, a flahs of light blinded him as the sun rose above the horizon, Mks mech standing over him in all it's glory.

"Nothing is impossible if you just believe in yourself" Mk responds. "Make no mistake, you just got M-KO'D!!!" he yells, striking a pose.

Meanwhile, Red Son pulls himself from some rubble, coughing up dust as he glares at the Mech that had mortally wounded his father. "You think this is OVER!? This ISN'T OVER BOZO!! WHY DOn"T YOU JUST GET OUT OF THAT DORKY MECH AND FIGHT ME YOU COWARD!!" Though not even a moment later Red Son had feinted from exhaustion and fell off the rubble, Mk, being the good Samaritan he is, catches him before he can land on the ground and puts him down gently, wouldn't want him to get a concussion now......well.......a WORSE one that is.

A tornado whirls around DBK and his son as PIF appears within the gust. "We know when we've been bested, but this won't be the last you see of use......Noodle boy...hahahahahahahahahahaha!" She laughs out as she and her family disappears into the wind, the gust nearly knocking Mk back as they disapear,

"...WHAT!? NO!! NO FAIR CMON YOU CAN'T JUST RUN AWAY WHEN I'M RIGHT ABOUT TO WIN!!" Mk exclaims in disbelief.

"MK!!" Mei calls out from under him, he crawls over and opens the hatch, looking down at her. "YOU TOTALLY KICKED DBK'S BUTT!! WITHOUT US THIS CITY'D BE TOAST!!"

Ah yes.....the city......the devastatingly destroyed city that was mostly a wasteland now............

"hehe.....yeeeaaah i wouldn't stay I 'completely' saved the city but......at least no one else got hurt" He sighed out in relief, jumping out from the mech, the Spear shrinking down and into his hand. "i'd say with enough people pitching in, we'd be able to rebuild the city is about.......say a week and a half?"

"But ya know.....i couldn't have done it on my own" Mk says sheepishly, the shadow of Sandy suddenly looms over him as he and Mei are suddenly puleld into a bone crushing hug from behind.

"You did it little man!" Sandy says, looking like he's about to shed a tear, man, he must have really scared em.

"yeah! You're basically the New Third Lotus Prince now!" Mei giggles.

"HA! 'Lotus Kid', didn't you say?" Tang adds, he may be putting on a smile now but internally he was basically scared half to death and ready to scold the boy when they get home for risking his life not ONCE but TWICE IN ONE DAY!!!

"HOHO! You did good kid, you did REALL GOOD!" Pigsy says proudly, and like a bee in a hive mind was thinking the exact same thoughts as Tang about the scolding, Parental hive-mind baby!

"WHO!! COOL NEW LOOK MK!! You do make up now or somethin?" Mei asks his with a chuckle, Mk looks at her confused, he may need a mirror when he gets home, he may not realise it now but he now had red markings on his face, 3 dots on his forehead, a large red one with 2 smaller ones at it's sides, and under his eyes taking the appearance of Eye-shadow.

"B-But uh....what now?" Sandy asks.

"BUST UP MORE BAD GUYS!!" Mei yells out.

"A-AFTER we help everyone rebuild the city....it's the uh...least we could do" Mk adds on.

Pigsy and Tang can't help but feel proud for the kids, finally taking responsibility for himself and taking charge, he'd make the perfect great candidate to be the next manager of Pigsy's Noodles when he's older.

"Well, we better eat first, probabaly lots of people in need of food after everything, Pigsy's Noodles will probabaly be PACKED with people in a few minutes" Tang informs, everyone is on board and starts heading out. Mk notices Monkey King sitting on top of the mech.

"Y-You guys go on ahead, i gotta take care of something real quick" Mk says as he jumps off Sandy, they all wave goodbye and callout that they'll meet him at Pigsy's as they head out.

Mk stands infront of the mech as Monkey King jumps off of it with a proud look on his face.

"Nice work there kid! Consider this trial completed!" he congradulates.

"Th-Thanks i guess Monkye King b-but.....trial for what? You never really told me what it was i was proving myself for" Mk was asks Wukong as he disperses the mech.

"Don't worry! Your answer will appear in abooooout........3 seconds!" Wukong chuckles.

"3 Sec-.....What're you talking about??" Mk asks him confused before a voice yells out.

"SUN WUKONG!!!" A voice echos through the area as Mk looks up to find a being hovering over them, adorned in Pink armour, a bright red sash hovering over their shoulders, they were holding a spear, red hilt with a 2 pointed hooked holden tip, golden wheels under their feet as they descended down.

"SUN WUKONG!" He snarls again as he becomes more visible, wait was that-

"NEZHA!! Nice to see you old-"

"Do not speak to me in such a friendly tone Sun Wukong!" Nezha yells, interrupting Monkey King. "What has happened here!? I heard word of the Demon Bull Kings release and attack on the Mortal Realm! Why did you not take care of it!?"

"Uhhh, you may not know this yet but, i've retired kid" Wukong says sassily, adding fuel to the fire. "real question is, why weren't YOU here?" He says smugly.

"because i thought that maybe YOU would have handled it! Considering this place of Mortal Residence is apart of YOUR territory, demon!" Nezha snarls.

"Whoa there! Watch it with the D-word there Nezhy! Got a kid watching!" Wukong snickers.

Nezha looks at him confused before his gaze lands on Mk.

".....Wukong......Why....and HOW.....is that mortal child holding my spear?" Nezha says in complete shock.

"Cause he's the 'Chosen One' Nezhie~" Wukong says in a playful voice, his tone similer to that of Hagrid from Harry Potter, speaking of which why does this feel like that one scene where he reveals Harry is a wizard???

"Cease your jokes and mockery and speak the truth Simian" Nezha snarls in annoyance.

"Hey i'm not Lyin! The spear really did choose him!" Wukong says in a 'Matter-of-fact' tone, holding his hands up.

Nezha turns to Mk with a serious look. "Child, is what this Simian saying true?"

Mk gulps down before answering. "Y-yeah......i uh.....I touched the spear, picked it up, a whole lot of crazy stuff happened, defeated DBK and....well.....inherited all you powers i think??"

Nezha stares at him for a moment in shock before sighing, Wukong what have you done?

"Well that settles it than!" Wukong says whole-heartedly.

"Settle what?" Mk and Nezha ask at the same time.

'He's gonna be your successor!" Wulong answers.

".........WHAT!?" Both Mk and Nezha exclaim in sync.

"THE HELL YOU MEAN!?"

"WUKONG I DID NOT AGREE TO THIS!!"

"Oh calm down...big immortal baby....besides, with me on retirement, and you being busy with your duties in the celestial realm, this place is gonna need someone to protect it, so why not the kid?" Wukong states, and Nezha hates to admit it but......he's right......Wukong is not long attending his duties and Nezha is FAR to busy with hsi to mutitask.

".........'sigh'.....fine.....i will take him as my successor..." Nezha sigh. "BUT! I am in NO WAY throwing a MORTAL CHILD into dangerous situations without training.......so with that said i will use what ever breaks or free time i can find to train him...."

"Alrighty than! I'll take up training him aswell in your absense, gotta keep the kid on his edge after all!" Wukong states proudly while Nezha just deadpans at him.

"...........All the more reason to use what ever Free time I have to train him...." Nezha states with an unimpressed tone, looking at Mk. "Child.....i do hope you realise the great responsibility that will be placed upon your sholders.....are you sure you wish to accept?"

Mk thinks for a moment, he's only, what? 21? Sure he's an adult (With the mindset of a child that is, who would technically be considered a child to beings like this), and he's VERY unexperienced in the whole hero business......but what if something like this happens again? What if more people get hurt.......if no one else was going to stand up....than he will be the first.....

"......I do" Mk answers. "Once we rebuild the city, i will begin training with you" Mk confirms,

"......very well.........Than i hope to see you as soon as I am able" Nezha states, before disappearing within a cyclone of pink flames.

And thus the journey of the might Lotus Kid began, and little did he realise, this would only be the first, and smallest threat he will face, for horrors beyond imagine, and secrets untold, are all waiting in silence, waiting for their time to strike.

Chapter Text

It has been around 2 weeks since the whole DBK ordeal, Mk and the others, along with more than half of the surviving residents of the city, pitched in and helped rebuilt the city from the ground up, several homes were destroyed during the Demon Bull Family's attack of the city, and several more people died during said event. But thanks to everyone pitching in, even receiving some help from some neighbouring cities, the Megapolis was rebuilt within a week and a half.

Mk has some time to learn how to use his 'Flame wheels' during that time, he found using his roller-skates for it was much easier than his roller-skate Shoes, his shoes were more for casual strolls and work most of the time, his skates were for rugged, and wild riding, needless to say he found it easier to control with them. So in short, he could technically fly now! He still had some rough edges to work around but no one said skating on literal air would be easy!

Right now he was on Sandy's boat, Sandy was moving some crates using his crane so he had warned them to be mindful where they stood, finally having some time to practise his combat skills with the Spear, he's got some basic movements down, Tang was munching on some noodles over on the couch while watching the latest news.

"BREAKING NEWS!! It has been confirmed that the devastation from 2 weeks ago was caused by Legendary Demon Bull King! Questions still remain about the small, overpowered young man who saved us all, is he a deity sent down from the heavens? Is he a Demigod born from forbidden love? We leave the theories up to you!!" The News reporters says over the news as it showed several clips taken from several people who were present during the incident, man did he really look that scary? Actually, makes Tang wonder if Mk can summon that fire sash again, he wonders if it burned to the touch or was solid, seemed pretty solid when it restrained DBK.

Mk swung his Spear around as Mei watching him enthusiastically, reenacting the events that unfolded during his battle with DBK, only fair he tells Mei what happened! He never got the chance to tell her what happened up close!

"-A-AND I WAS LIKE! "STOP THERE DEMON BULL KING!" AND DBKS ALL LIKE "YOU CAN'T STOP ME!! I'M CWAZY!!"" Mk says in a mocking voice, causing Mei to burst out laughing.

"So than i grabbed my Spear and that WHOOOSH!! I SUMMONED A GIANT MECH!!" Mk exclaims enthusiastically stabbing in Spear into the floor the same way he did when he summoned his mech, at times he wondered how exactly he did that, maybe he just needs to think Really REALLY hard or something?

Unfortunately he had accidentally burst a pipe that just happened to be located under the exact area of the boat he just stabbed which caused water to come spraying out like a fountain.

"Wha oh, looks like you uh.....sprung a leak Mk" Mei chuckles nervously, hopefully Sandy won't get mad, actually CAN he even get mad? She's never seen him angry before.

Mk promptly began to panic as he tried to find a way to stop the leaking and remove the spear without making it worse, oh Buddha it was the cave all over again!

"I just pulled a Quadruple shift at the shop-" The sudden booming scold of Pigsy directly next to Tang startles him to the point he nearly dropped his bowl of noodles and choked as he looks up at Pigsy startled, WHEN DID HE GET HERE!? "-and i just so happened to see you've all been SLACKIN OFF AL DAY!!"

"O-Oh Piggy, relax! A little time off never hurt anyone!" Tang attempts to calm his husband down, Mk slides over next to him.

"Yeah! A time off never hurt no-one!" Mk says cheerfully, and Tang poker faces, internally screaming 'NOT HELPING SON!!'.

"L-LOOK OUT!!" Sandy exclaims as Tang, Mk, Mei and Pigsy all look up to see the chain attached to the cargo crate above them had broken loose, causing the crate to begin falling down towards them.

Tang, Mei and Pigsy scramble out of the way, but Mk, being a slow processor, ends up underneath said crate as it lands ontop of him, causing Pigsy and Tangs alarm bells to ring violently, NOT AGAIN!! THEY JUST GOT THE KID BACK 2 WEEKS AGO AND HE'S ALREADY DEAD AGAIN!?

"KID!!" Pigsy exclaims in horror as everyone stares at the crate in shock, oh dear Buddha WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING!?

Pigsy and Tang end up having a double heart-attack when Mk bursts out the top of the crate while yelling "I AM INVINCIBLE!!!!" while practically being ON FIRE!

Sandy, Tang and Pigsy let out a sigh of relief as Mei cheers in excitement and rushes of to Buddha knows where as the flames disperse around Mk, they had recently found out Mk practically combusts when he's excited, had to replace several chairs within the span of this week, Pigsy pretty much had to replace all the old chairs in the restaurant with Fire-Proof ones, can't be to careful, when asked why he needed so many he just plainly said 'My son sets himself on fire when he's excited', he probably shouldn't have said that cause the look on the delivery guys face was one of pure horror and confusion, probably should have worded that better.

"Look, Mk, just cause you got The Lotus Princes Powers-" "Third Lotus Prince" Tang corrects him, Pigsy sighs and continues. "-Doesn't mean- WHAAAAAAAA!?"

Pigsy exclaims in shock as mei suddenly runs around the corner with a BUDDHA DAMN ROCKET LAUNCHER AIMED AT MK!!!

"MK!! HOW BOUT THIS!!" Mei exclaims excitedly as she fires at Mk, giving Pigsy and Tang a heart attack for the 3rd time today. 4th time if you count when Mk bursts out of the rubble yelling "I AM INVINCIBLE!!!!" FOR BUDDHAS SAKE THESE KIDS WERE GONNA BE THE DEATH OF THEM!

Pigsy doesn't even try to argue with them, just pinching the bridge of his snout and sighing, when they set their mind of something it's pretty much impossible to tell them otherwise. "Look kiddo, you're a super hero now, so you're going to need-" "A CAPE!!! MAYBE A LOGO! OF A SECRET HEADQUARTERS!! SOME VEHICLES!! YA KNOW! TO HELP YOU BEAT BAD GUYS!!" Mei interrupts him.

"N-no, what i was getting at was-" Pigsy tried to clarify but Meis enthusiasm was unrelenting.

"TO THE SECRET BASE!!" Mei exclaims jumping onto a blue crate and kicking a pale yellow one, green lighst flash from it a little as it shakes a bit, soon opening to reveal and elevator, Sandy, Tang and Mk rush over in amazement as they follow Mei inside the elevator, Pigsy following after them as he grumbled, can someone not interrupt him for once?

It was a tight fit but everyone managed to fit inside the elevator as they descended down into said Secret base, Mei was the one to walk out first as everyone else squeezed out and into the base.

"Welcome.....TO OUT NEW TEAM BASE!" Mei exclaims excitedly as the room lights up, revealing several vehicles in hangers, a custom mech, Cars and bikes based on each of their ideal images, a hang out area with videos games, a hammock, some books, and an bathroom, and i giant super computer at the end of the base with a giant green holographic screen.

"Mei! When did you make this!?" Mk says in amazement a she looks around.

"HOW did you make this!?" Pigsy exclaims in disbelief, now he's seen expensive products, he can tell when something cost a couple thousand yen, and THIS! DEFINITELY A COUPLE MILLION!!

"Hey Sandy? Weren't you building a secret base for Mk to?" Tang leans in a whispers to Sandy who merely freezes up for a moment before uttering a quick, and slightly embarrassed 'um......No'.

Back within the bowls of the Demon Bull Kings lair, DBK grunts in anger, still enraged at his defeat. He tossed a heavy bolder at the machine pumping liquified metals into the Bull Clone maker, causing several litres of the substance to spill out.

"An EON trapped under a mountain, and NOW THIS!?" He yells angrily, taking out his 2 weeks worth or rage out on the machinery. "I had the staff in my grasp! I SHOULD HAVE CRUSHED THE THEIF WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE!!!"

"Oh my love don't be so dramatic, we have nothing but time, you will bring the world to it's knees" Princess Iron Fan reassured her husband with a devious grin, Red Son soon butting in.

"And sooner then you think father! Allow me to secure the tower you desire!" He remarked, after his last failure he needed to make up for his mistakes, this was the perfect opportunity to do so.

DBK glared down at him, his eyes narrowed. "......get it done then" Red Son knew better then anyone, it wasn't just a demand....it was a challenge.....a challenge of Red Son competence and worthiness.

Swallowing down his nervousness and stress he turns heel and walks out of the room with a facaded confidence to mask the stress he was under. "I will not fail you again" He uttered confidently as he exits to the room, calling forth his Bull Clone minions to assist him in getting the job done.

Back with the gang, Mei and Mk were busy testing just how much stuff Mk's fire could burn through when the show Tang was watching was suddenly switched to a live broadcast from Red Son in the Weather Station, calling everyone over they watch it intently.

"Citizens! It is I! Red Son!" He says in an arrogant and proud tone. "I have taken control of the weather station, and will harness the very POWER OF NATURE to return my Father to his former glory!.....T-This message is more of a courtesy"

With that he pulls the lever that changes the weather, and not even a moment later, thunderclouds spread over the city, spread all across the country within an instant, rain pouring down in hails. The weather shifting from sunny to rainy wildly like some sort of light switch being flicked over and over again until their area of town settles on sunny.

"When I'm finished! My father will once more DOMINATE THE WORLD!!!" Red Son laughs.

He pretty much lost them at that point, but their attention was snapped back to him when they heard him say "Oooooh Look! A Lightning Button!!".

Pigsy held his head in dismay, Mk and Mei cheer at the call to action as a way to test out Mks new abilities, while Tang just sat there with a deadpan expression eating his Noodles.

"AWWWW YEAH!!!" Mk and Mei cheer, throwing Pigsy off.

"Wha- WHAT DO YOU EMAN 'AW YEAH'!? THIS AIN'T AN AW YEAH MOMENT!!" Pigsy exclaims angrily, from his perch on the armrest, hands pushing down on Tangs head as he leaned over, causing his face to be shoved into his Noodle bowl.......this was fine....

"Chill out Pigsy! I'm invincible remember?" Mk chuckles while Mei throws brick after brick at him for no apparent reason other then to prove his point. "If he wants to tussle with the champ, then I say BRING IT!!" He says confidently, twirling his Spear around.

"YEAH CAUSE HE'S A SUPERHERO YOOO!!! That Red baby is gonna get MKO'D!!" Mei exclaims enthusiastically, not helping the situation at all.

Pigsy knew this could only end in disaster, the kid has barely learned to control his powers NOR HAS HE EVER ACTUALLY USED A POLEARM BEFORE! AND NO A BROOM DOESN'T COUNT!! No fighting training except from that Monkey King series he watches and no experience in PROPER combat!

"'Sigh' You gotta lot to learn kid! Don't just dive headfirst into danger!.......WAIT-!" PIgsy exclaims as Mk suddenly flys off, his stance was a bit shaky and he went in Zigzags but he was very clearly flying toward the Weather Station."WHAT DID I JUST SAY!?"

"HAHAHAHAHAH!! TOTALLY INVINCIBLE!!!" Mk laughed enthusiastically as he flew off.
.
.

Cut to the Weather Station Red Son was currently viewing the chaos around the world, large cyclones in America, Heat wave in Australia, Tsunami in China, man, makes him wonder why they even built a Weather Tower that alters the Weather world wide, that seems a bit dangerous, ya know, like something that would backfire drastically.........is this thing the reason fro Climate change-

"NOT SO FAST RED SON!!" Mk yells out as he burst through the door, his friends (Pretty sure the Human and Pig are his parents) following after him exhausted. Red Son almost chokes on his Slushie, HOW THE HELL DID THEY GET HERE SO FAST!?

He quickly regains his composure, ok Red Son! You first solo villainous interaction! Play it cool AND DON'T BLOW THIS INFRONT OF THE NOODLE BOY!! He turns around in his chair, arms spread out on the armrests and head resting on one of his hands, holding his Slushie in the other, one leg crossed over the other, CLASSIC VILLAIN POSE!!

"Noodle boy! I thought i smelled some garbage, turns out i was right! MWHAHAHAHAHA!!" He laughs evilly, he is KILLING IT!!

"Your laughing now but.....i'm invincible, so yeah, you're basically toast!" He says confidently, his friends holding up some cardboard signs saying 'Invincible' on both English and Japanese characters, before putting them to the side, w-wait where did they pulls those from?

"Prepared to get MKO'D!!" He yells out, before waving his spear around to try and get it to shoot flames at Red Son........o...kaaaaayy???

"YEAH MK!! YOU SHOW EM WHO'S-" WIthout warning the Spear suddenly extends and smacks Mei over the head full force, Mk shrieks in panic, oh Buddha that looks bad!

"AH!! JEEZ!! WATCH WHAT YOUR DOIN!" Pigsy exclaims at MK in panic as he rushes to check on Mei.

"A-AH!! SORRY MEI!" Mk exclaimed turning around to face her, however the spear was still extended, which threw him off his balance cause him to accidentally swing it around and hit Sandy in the side of the head.

"OOF! MY CHAKRA!" He heard Sandy yell right before he fell unconscious.

"OH NO YOU'VE KILLED HIM!" Tang exclaims over-dramatically.

"A-Aha, he's a big guy.....h-he'll be fine!" Mei utters out dizzily as she walked over only to collapse on top of the Blue River Demon.

".......You dorks done beating each other up yet?" Red Son asks unamused, jeez, talk about embarrassing, and HE was the one worried about embarrassing himself.

"Y-YES! And you're next on my list!" Mk exclaims, twirling his Spear, aiming to throw it, however he was never a good shot as a kid and it bounces off the floor, lands behind him, and in a burst of flames fires itself into his butt, bounces him of several surfaces before rocketing him out the window.

Everyone was dumbfounded while Pigsy inhales deeply to try and keep his composure, this is why he wanted the kid to TRAIN more with that thing before using like it is't a BUDDHA DAMN CELESTIAL WEAPON!!

Nows not the time for contemplating life choices though cause now they had Bull Clones to deal with!!
.

Mk lands harshly onto the ground, a large crater forming under him, Buddhas grace that would have hurt if he wasn't invincible! He groans as he peals himself from the ground, it still felt uncomfortable nonetheless.

"Are all mortals like this?" He heard some says from behind him, he yelps as he turns around to find Nezha sitting on the rim of the crater.

"A-Ah P-Prince Nezha!" Mk exclaims in shock and slight embarrassment. "What uhhhhh.....brings you here?"

"I have made a small gap in my schedule to pay you a visit.....mainly because Monkey King kept sending me messages to check on you today, and now I see why" He deadpans.

Mk had never felt more embarrassed in his life, his first actually mission and he fails almost imedientally and ALSO gets his friebds hurt......should he.....ask him for help defeating Red Son?...N-no that would be selfish of him.....

"Are you....alright?" Nezha snaps him out on his thoughs, now infront of him, when did he get there!? "Look i understand, your having trouble controlling your powers aren't you?"

"U-Uh No-.........'sigh'...yes...." Mk admits shamefully.

"......hmm... it makes sense, all my power at once would be to much for a mortal to take on all at once in such a short amount of time" Nezha says to himself, deep in thought, an idea came to his head but he needed the young mortals full consent to it. "I.....may have a solution to your situation......but I need your full consent to it..."

Mk looks at him curiously before nodding for him to continue.

Nezha sighed before continuing. "I can seal away some of your powers so that training with them will be easier, you will be restricted to a select few and you won't be immortal anymore, but you will be able to control them easier..."

Mk thought long and hard for a moment, he was in this mess BECAUSE of his invincibility.....or 'immortality' as Nezha called it, his arrogance got the better of him and people got hurt as a result.

Taking a deep breath Mk gave the Immortal his reply. ".....Alright lets do it...."

Nezha was almost shocked the mortal agreed to it so quickly, but he didn't judge, as long as he consented to it he won't have a problem with it. "This may feel uncomfortable for a moment, but only for a second, now please hold still"

Obeying Mk stood in place as Nezha held out his hands, a Pale Pink seal appearing over his hands he uses his power to create a seal on the child, a Golden Band, similar to the one he wore in his childhood, appearing on Mk's neck, only it had a few modifications to his own, instead of completely sealing away his power it merely sealed away a portion of it, he did well to remove the 'tightening' feature, he wished for no harm to come to the boy while he wore this.

"This Golden Band has sealed away a portion of your powers, it may feel strange for a while but you will get used to it with time.......are you alright?" Nezha asks him as Mk coughs a bit before he stands up with a confident grin.

".....Yeah!"

Meanwhile, back at the Weather Station, Pisgy and the others were tied up, Pigsy looking worse for wear, him fighting back the hardest, even scrapping a few Bull Clones by himself, before ultimitally being KO'd by Red Son who, mind you, WAS WAY STRONGER THEN HE LOOKED!

"Hehehehehe! Peasants" Red Son chuckles to himself, however his internal fantasy about finally earning his fathers approval was interrupted by and very familiar and oh so annoying voice.

"OOOOOH RED SOOOON!!!" Mk yelled out, catching Red Son off guard as the Lotus Kid burst through the glass roof, somehow more gracefully then when he first got here, his flaming Roller-skates touching the floor as the flames disperse.......where he immedientally almost falls over cause he's still not used to landing like that on his skates, but catches his footing. "Lets settle this for real! I won't let you get away with this!"

"Pfffffff HA!! You bout to beat yourself up some more?" Red Son laughs.

"Hey! I'll have you know I can control my powers now! Only downside is i'm not invincible or immortal anymore! So I could die-" Mk catches himself, AAAAANNNNND He was NOT supposed to tell him that!

"WHAT!?" Pigsy snarled, sending him a death glare.

"Uhhhhh FORGET I SAID THAT! I got this!" Mk exclaimed, cmon! Keep it together!

Twirling his spear he jumps up into the air and launchs himself toward Red Son and the Bull Clones. "HERE COMES LOTUS KID!!!"

Hoooooowever he did NOT expect so many Bull Clones to pounce at him in turn which led to him squeeling like a piglet and fleeing as they sent missiles at him. "AAAHHHHHH! TOTALLY DON'T GOT THIS!!"

And then it went from Missiles from Bulls Clones LITERALLY KAMIKAZING HIM!! In which in response, he scrambles to get out of the way of, jumping over the Weather Control desk, stop drop and rolling and running in zigzags. He is cut off however by Red Son who lands in front of him, standing up straight he gives him a wide fanged grin, eyes shining from his shadowed over face as he suddenly disappears from sight in the blink of an eye.

Mk is barely able to block the attack when he appears in front of him, sending a flaming punch his way. The 2 enter a free for all battle with Red Son and Mk fighting like it was a martial arts tournament, throwing and exchanging kiks and punches while trying to dodge and block each others blows.

Red Son gets a good punch at his chest that sends him flying across the room and landing harshly into he Weather Control desk, back aching form the impact, Bull Clones lept at him and panic ocer took his mind, to sore to move and not enough time to dodge or block, HOW WAS HE SUPPOSED TO FIGHT ALL OF THEM!?

As if answering his prayers, his eyes begin to burn, closing them for a moment his vision turns gold, and it almost seems time had stopped, but he could not move his body, it was just like in the cave and with his battle with DBK. "That weird Gold Vision thingie!"

He looks around, now having time to properly asses his surroundings for a short period of time, finally registering in his mind that he was at THE Weather Control Desk his gaze shifts to the large Signal pole at the top of the building, and it all clicks in his mind as thunder crackles from above. "THATS IT!"

Just as he speaks he notices the Bull Clones beginning to move again, slowly at first but beginning to speed up, ok, short amount of time to act, and an even shorter amount of time to enact hid plan, he has to make this count!

And within seconds time returned to normal and the Bull Clones collided with where he was, a large dust cloud forming where they landed. Red Son lands on the large pile of Bull Clones, laughing evilly.

"Not so tough without all your Celestial Powers are you!" Red Son sneers before a certain rattling emitting from the robots caught his attention.

Not a moment later the bottom end of the spear suddenly shoots up and extents upwards, dragging all of them with it, bursting out of the ceiling and into the black clouds, he could veigly hear the Noodle By from down there with his enhanced hearing,

"OOO LOOK! LIGHTNING BUTTON!" Mk says mockingly, mimicking what he said on TV.

.........Oh no....

A mere second later Lightning struck the Spear, electrocuting Red Son and pretty much everyone else who was touching or hanging onto the spear in that moment, the Bull Clones exploding one by one, Mk quickly hides behind the desk and covers his ears as a large explosion rings out, rubble and dust flying everywhere.

Any remaining Bull Clones hung by torn wires or was splayed out along the floor, the Spear returns to it's normal size and Red Son plummets down toward the floor, Mk panics of a bit, he just wanted to defeat Red Son NOT FIGGIN KILL HIM! He knew he would survive a Lighting Bolt to the face he's half Demon Half Celestial! BUT HE'S NOT TO SURE ABOUT FALLING FORM THAT HEIGHT!!

Acting out of instinct Mk rushes forward and leaps upwards, catching Red Son as they both land harshly on the floor, Mk using his body was a shield, he's pretty sures thats going to cause some back pain later.

Groaning Red Son sits up, gripping his arm painfully, Hair slightly charred from the Lightning and a slight burn along his face that was already healing over, his face turns a tad red after realising what, or who he was sitting on and he instantly jumped up and moved away, weither out of Disgust or being saved by his Arch-Enemy or embarrassment Mk was not sure.

"Y-You may have won this round! B-But, You're still GARBAGE!!" Red Son exclaimed, disappearing in a whirlwind of flames.

Mk sighs, standing up, gripping his hip in slight pain before walking bakc over to the Control desk. "Lets get this place back to normal" He sighs in exhaustion as he resets the setting to what they were supposed to be.

"Aaaaand that should do it" Mk sighs in relief before he was tackled by Mei and Sandy, who were still tied up.

"MK!!" Mei exclaimed excitedly, but after hearing him groan in pain she lets out a disappointed but apologetic huff. "You really did loose your powers"

"Yeah, just so I learn to control them better" Mk says sheepishly.

"Aaaaand....how're you gonna do that?" Pigsy asks him, raising a brow.

"Practice, practice, Practice!" Mk says proudly twirling his Spear only to hit himself upside the head with it.

The gang laughs a bit at the karma, though Pigsy and Tang were most certainly going to scold him later for basically putting his life at risk for the 4TH TIME!! Now, they seriously needed to get those injuries checked out, just to make sure he didn't fracture anything, they were due for a trip to the doctor anyhow.

.

.

At the Bull Families lair DBK slams the ground in anger after hearing news of his Son failure and injury, which PIF was hastily taking care of, yes he would heal quickly on his own but scars light Lightning Scars still take aa day or 2 to heal properly. 

"The little theif has stolen from me AGAIN!! I WILL NOT BE UNDONE BY AN INSECT!!" DBK snarled angrily, a blue light emitting from the large crack in the ground caused by his rage, ghastly whispers emitting from it, he turns his head in confusion, and, though he'd never admit it aloud, slight unsettlement.

The pale blue light glowed ominously, beckoningly, as if it were tempting him to drink from forbidden waters, promising power and control. 

"Now THAT.....is POWER" DBK says, leaning over the crack, completely enthralled by the whispers.

"Power"

"POWER!"

"poWER!"
