Not Your Romeo and Juliet

Chapter 16

There was no mercy left within the demons. They wanted blood. They had been angered.

They should've never messed with the bone demon's subjects, never messed with her.

Her plan was not ready, not at all. She had taken inspiration of the monkey boy, taken his idea of a mech. It would be huge, thousands times the monkey mech. But now that she had the boy in her grasp, she could do this so much easier. She will rule this city, this world.

The crave for power had been ageless, growing more each day as her power grew stronger. More people were in her grasps. She didn't even need to control the monkey boy since he was already willing to do all that she wanted. He had taken her power, some she must've lost track of on her way to the sewer after taking hold of a poor girl's body. She wasn't poor in the Lady's eyes, she was just a vessel to be used, never given back.

Perhaps she'd beaten, but she did not suspect that. She had more, so much more. She had the Monkey  King's power without having to use up for power to capture him in her webs, she was just simply given a monkey. Who thought it'd be this easy to get the Great Sage's power?

Lady Bone could not help but smirk and laugh, standing in her ring of power. Her plans faded from view as her first subject walked behind her, bowing when she turned. The Mayor, not a real Mayor, but he had gladly taken the name. There was nothing else to call him. Sometimes his grin freaked her out, the way he looked, always, after being driven crazy by her power. He loved it.

"My Lady," he spoke, looking up to me with his bright eyes, "The boy has arrived!"

Behind him, blue mist risen and the monkey kid himself stepped into view from a portal which closed out a moment later. Mk's face was blank as he stared, but when he got next to Mayor he bowed and smiled. He rose.

"Hello, Baigujing. I am glad to meet you."

The Lady smirked, nodding, "Of course, Monkey Boy," she stepped over, placing her hands on his shoulders and down his arm, "You still have the power of the Monkey King, correct?" She spoke softly, whispers surrounding the area. She stepped away, inspecting her new comrade.

Mk nods, and if he had colour to his eyes he would be glancing around, but he did not move.

"Yes, My Lady, but I have no staff. It was taken form me before I woke."

The Mayor began to snicker at the mistake of giving away his staff, and the Lady glared at him. He trembled and backed away, whimpering almost, but shutting up. She calmly looks back.

"By the Macaque? Ugh, stubborn bastard." She grumbled, looking away as she tapped her finger on her hands, which were intertwined behind her back. "We can get it back. I think he has gotten the Monkey King. He will have it." He gaze falls on the monkey boy again. Taking in his appearance, he was still a monkey, a light shade of red over his face like Macaque, a brown tail swishing behind him, almost angry. "Wukong will not hurt his successor. You will get that staff, and build your mech. We will power it, and destroy them."

Mk grins widely, head tilting. "Yes, we will. I will not fail you, My Lady."

"Mk's gone?!"

The Monkey King screeched when he saw me on the blood, bloody and burnt. I had remained on the glassy floor after collapsing and after awhile Macaque and a dressed Wukong same from upstairs. They both jumped down to me from the window, careful of the glass that had been broken.

Monkey King was practically clawing his eyes out of his head, whining non stop about  how his kid had left and how he had just gotten out of the cell.
