Stitching A Broken Heart

Chapter 64

MK hums to himself as he mops the floor in his Dadsy's shop, posing when Mei takes his picture while his Dadsy's back was turn, Tang couldn't help but giggle at his son's silliness, but then MK felt a familiar headache and his vision turned gold and hears a faint familiar voice

"Hey bud, do you hear me, hello?"

"You feeling alright kid?" Pigsy asked looking at his son in concern "I...I think I'm" MK tried to say looking around the shop to where the voice was coming from blinking rapidly

"Monkie Kid!"

The voice called out, the a gold projection of Monkey King appeared right next to Tang and Mei "Monkey King?!" MK said in shock "where!" Mei said looking around along with the scholar "Can't you guys see him, he's right there" the teen said pointing to where his dad was "kid, I don't see anything?" Pigsy said raising an eyebrow "hey there!" Monkey King said smiling his hands on his hips "are you actually here, or some ghost?" MK said completely confused by why only could see him but Mei, Dadsy and Baba can't "yeah, Astral Projection can do that, they can't see or hear me, but you and I can see and hear only each other" Monkey King said smiling "MK what's going on?" Tang asked looking at his son "Monkey King is using Astral Projection, only he and I can see and hear him" MK said looking back at Monkey King "ooooohhhh" Mei, Pigsy, and Tang said

"But anyway, super glad that you're not dead yet" Monkey King said still smiling "wait what do you mean not dead yet?!" MK said in shock "wellll you see bud" Monkey King said trying to explain "what have you done?" MK said crossing his arms and giving his dad a look that resembles Macaque when Monkey King did something and didn't tell anyone "Well, me and the boys got into a little food fight and well....I kind of got carried away and a dumpling manage to slip past me" Monkey King said rubbing the back of his head "is that it?" MK said raising an eyebrow in confusion "well, the boys are well...giants so the food is also" Monkey King was cut off by someone screaming outside, the teen runs out to see everyone looking up and he looks up to see.........a giant dumpling "yeah that, luckily I got something back home in my vault for this, anyway I gotta go, believe in yourself and you can do anything, okay byyyyeee!" Monkey King said and the Projection vanish "wait what?!" MK said but the image disappeared

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As soon as the Projection of MK disappeared, the copper simian smile fell and turning around to face the terrified giant, around him were the passed out and beaten up forms of other Celestials lay "now, where were we" Monkey King said pulling out a dark blue scroll from his pocket with his tail, and tossing it into the air, the old paper turning massive in a puff of smoke and slamming onto the table "I believe, you were going to tell me something about, this" Monkey King said crossing his arms at the Celestial giant who quivers in fear "and please, don't drop anymore food" Monkey King said

Back in the city, MK stares up at the giant dumpling jaw drop "what...the heck....is that?" Mei said looking at the dumpling in shock "it looks like a Xiaolongbao, which is a type of dumpling filled with meat and hot soup" Tang said pushing his glasses up and slightly drooling at the doughy meal "so using the staff is a no go" Macaque said appearing from behind the chefs shadow "I heard and saw everything, should've known that this is Wukongs work" Macaque said pinching the bridge of his nose "so how do we stop it, if I can't use the staff?" MK said looking up at the dumpling "then we'll just have to trap it, and luckily I know what to trap it in, The Divine Bod-"  but Tang cut the tanned simian off "The Divine Bodhisattva Quan Yin's vase!!!!" Tang said excitingly "yes" Macaque said. The scholar runs to the noodle shop and runs back carrying a large book, and opening it up to show a picture of a seafoam green vase, decorated with flowers "the goddess of mercy used it on Monkey King's journey to help stop...uh, some demon" Tang said lying the last part to not hurt Macaque or MKs feelings "It's said to have been filled with an oceans worth of water" Tang said closing the book
