MK has arrived at the footsteps of the temple.
"Wow" said MK.
MK walks up the steps.
"Guess this is the throne room" said MK.
Unbeknownst to him, the lion statues activate.
"Whoa, I knew this place was gonna be big but wow! And why I feel like I've been here before?" asked MK.
A furnace is being lowered to the middle of the room.
"There it is! Well, that was easy" said MK.
MK heard a growling as she turn around to see two Lion Guardians appear behind her.
"Uh, nice giant monster dogs?" said MK nervously.
MK panics and hops inside the furnace. The cover starts to close on her.
"Wait! No, no, no, no, no!" said MK.
The cover closes on her. The Lion Guardians surround the furnace. They sniff her sent from the inside then they realise who she is.

Mei and Red Son are sneaking into the orchard.
"So, I heard you helped MK beat your dad" said Mei. "That was one time! My father, the Great Demon Bull King, was... not himself, but in no other instance would I ever assist that sorry excuse for a hero" said Red Son. "But you're totally assisting right now, *gasps* you are a hero!" said Mei. "Huh?" asked Red Son. "Red Son, Red Son, hero of the city, saving Dads, saving the world, saving spicy barbecue one bite at a time, buy two, get one free" said Mei. "Would you give me that!?" said Red Son.
Red Son grab Mei's phone then destroyed it, but Mei brought her another phone.
"Let's just get this peach—" said Red Son.
Mei takes Red Son for a vlog shoot.
"Mei and Red Son, heroes on a quest! Okay, let's go!" she said then runs off.
Red Son left glaring at her.
"I just decided, she's next on my hit list, and how MK get used to her?" asked Red Son.
What they didn't know is Strong Spider is following them.

Tang is gawking at everything in the lab.
"Every item is just brimming with untold, dangerous power!" said Tang.
Tang accidentally knocks something over.
"Tang! Stop screwing around!" said Pigsy. "Hmm, Lao Tzu's pills, if I know anything about the legends, they won't be easy to find" said Tang. "Is it them?" asked Pigsy.
Tang turn around to see Pigsy is holding the jar of pills. Tang screams, examining them.
"That's them! *He calms himself* Ahem, yes" said Tang. "Great! Let's get going!" said Pigsy.
Their celebration is cut.
"What's the rush, little piglet?" asked Huntsman.
Huntsman tosses a net at them, to which they narrowly escape and run off, screaming. Meanwhile, MK is stuck in the furnace, alone.
"There is no way I can do this, I can't do anything on my own" said MK.
Something glows to her right.
"Monkey King, I knew you'd—" said MK.
The glow settles to her own reflection.
"Oh, perfect, perfect! Just who I need! Useless MK! What have you got to say, huh?" asked MK. "Um, that's not how mirrors work" said Reflection MK. "Ooh, ooh, what? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, I'm going crazy, yep" said MK. "Stop that, listen, every time we get in trouble, we turn to Monkey King or our friends or someone, they tell us a story and we find that smidge of motivation we need, well, now we're on our own, it's just... you" said Reflection MK.
