It was so quick, there was nothing they could have done to stop it. Mk's eyes widened as the black furred monkey collapsed to his knees in front of him. The spear like bone that was impaled in the shadow monkey's chest recalled to its master.
Macaque clutched the wound with a shaky breath doing his best not to panic. Lady bone demon on her part looked almost proud of her strike.
Finally Mk felt like he could speak but it came a strained whisper "w-why?"
The shadow monkeys glamour dropped as it was becoming to much of a struggle to keep it up. He held in a groan trying to keep himself together "i-im sorry bud."
"How pathetic" The bone demon sighed "what a waste of a good shot."
The brunette shot a glare at her as a growl ripped from his throat "shut up!"
Mk gripped his staff and was ready to leap to action but a hand gripped his arm hard enough to almost break it. The six eared monkey panted "d-don't, it's to dangerous."
The teen was lost now noticing the puddle forming under the black haired monkey. He looked back over at the bone demon and saw she had a delicate eyebrow arched, curious to see his next move. It wasn't till he heard rattling chains that he realized his master was still trapped.
Wukong squirmed and growled trying to get free from the bright blue chains that bound him. Thanks to the blindfold around his eyes he couldn't tell what was going on. He blamed himself for falling for Lady bone demons trap and now he was worried about his predecessor.
"Kid are you ok!?" He shouted hoping for a response.
"I'm fine but Macaque I-" Mk gasped as the black monkey covered his mouth.
"We are fine Peaches" it was a struggle but it came out almost normal. He thanked whatever god was watching for that.
Monkie kid gave him a confused look but he just shook his head in response. Things were looking bad and he had to come up with a way to get both Mk and Wukong out of the temple. If he used the last bit of his power he could use the shadows to teleport them away but he would need the monkey king to be closer to bring him to.
"Hey bud, t-think you can get Wukong free?"
"I-i" Mk looked around panicked then settled on an idea "Yea sure."
"I need you to bring him here so I can get us out of here" he kept his voice low so the woman didn't hear his plan.
Mk took a deep breath, it was time to get some confidence like Monkey king always told him to. Pulling some hair he made ten clones, two stood by Macaque to keep him safe. Eight clones went after Lady Bone Demon while Mk himself snuck over to where his master was held. The clones weren't really able to hold their own against the villian as she easily knocked out four of them.
Hurriedly Mk pulled on the chains trying to free the Monkey King. "Focus your power kid, it's the only way your breaking the chains" Wukong relaxed in his binds.
Taking a step back to relax himself and focus, Mk used the staff and broke the chains. The Monkey King ripped the blindfold off and streached "sweet freedom!"
Checking on Lady bone demon the teen saw she had downed another two clones and was close to being rid of his last two. Grabbing his masters arm he dragged him over to were Macaque was. At first Wukong gave the other monkey a wary look, not fully trusting him.
"Don't worry peaches I just don't want the kid hurt" the black furred monkey spat.
Mk looked over the other monkey and noticed that his wound was gone which confused the male. However Macaque was not wasting another second as he formed a shadowy puddle and they all started to phase through. The last thing they heard was the demon scream at them.
Traveling by shadow felt weird to Mk, it was like he was weightless and everything was pitch black. It didn't take long for them to reform back on flower fruit mountain. The brunette looked down at him self and patted his body after the weird shift. He saw Wukong collapse backward with a sigh of relief.
Mk turned to Macaque "Thanks for the sav-" his eyes widened "Macaque!"
Wukong jumped up at the shout turning his attention to his successor. Mk had rushed over to the black furred monkey who was lying back and bleeding out. Gold eyes widened at the sight, the hazel furred monkey's legs shook a bit.
"W-what ha-happened?" Why couldn't he move his legs? He wanted to rush to Macaque but he was frozen.
A cough ripped from the black furred monkey's chest and blood started to trail out of the side of his mouth. That gave the sage a good push to rush to his side. He slid to his knees and scooped the other into his arms noticing the gaping wound in his chest.
"What happened!?!" His chest tightened as it felt like the wind was getting knocked out of him.
"H-he protected me and took the hit" Mk already had tears streaming down his cheeks.
"You looked fine when we left!"
"Peaches, gl-glamour can hide an-anything" the monkey chuckled.
"How can you laugh right now!?" Wukong growled.
Macaques brows furrowed "not much el-else I can do" another cough wracked through his body.
Mk whimpered as a sob threatened to tumble from him. The demon was focused on the other monkey though. The pain that filled the sage's eyes didn't belong there. Carefully the black tail wrapped around the hazel one and Macaque started hushing the sage.
"Close your eyes peaches" his voice was soft, it was getting harder to speak.
"Wh-what?"
"Do this for me peaches" he didnt need either of them seeing him bleed fully out "you two monkie kid."
Mk didn't argue and just followed the others command. Wukong however was being stubborn at first but gave in and closed his eyes. Macaque smiled and nuzzled tiredly into the others chest "remember when we played that prank on Princess Iron Fan?"
Wukong shook his head confused "why are you bringing that up!?"
"You managed to whiten her hair for a week and she wanted to kill you for it" the monkey chuckled "that's one of my favorite memories."
The monkey king was at a loss "w-why?"
"We had to hid in your house for a week so she wouldn't kill us."
He remembered that week, since they couldn't leave with out her wringing their necks they stayed inside and played games to pass the time. He cheeks flushed as during that time they shared a bed and were prone to cuddling and trying to be as close as they could with each other. That's when it hit the monkey king, Macaque was trying to make this easier for him some how.
"M-mango.....i-i can't lose you again" his voice shook. He waisted so much time being mad at the other. He should have made up with him sooner, he wanted more time.
"Shhhhh peaches, Everything will be fine, you'll be ok, just keep those eyes closed for me ok?" The world started going dark, he shivered starting to feel cold.
Tears slid down the monkey kings face as he held the other close. He felt Macaque go limp in his arms and his body froze.
"M-mango?"
Mk opened his eyes and paled slightly, he didn't know what to do as his master started to panic.
"Mango this isn't funny" Wukong nuzzled his face into the others. There was no helping it, the other was already gone. Mk flinched as a screaming sob ripped out of his masters throat, the monkey king fell apart.
