The Multiversal Shadow

Revenge Of The Spider Queen

Y/n's POV:

New Years! Yay! It would've been nice right? Nah... Instead of helping Pigsy in his truck making dumplings with Mei with a smile, I was distracted, by what? Well, by almost everything that happened that day, who were those people in the crystal ball and what did mom mean by something bad was coming?... And I still haven't seen Macaque since the incident, I don't want to think about it right now, I'll open up to him once I'm ready.

I regained conscious, and saw Mei's dumplings, they were... Not the best... But I think mine was alright.

"I feel like this would be easier if I had fingers."

"Just try and practice more, you'll get the hang of it."

I made my last dumpling and turned to Pigsy.

"Thank you! Great happiness and prosperity this Lunar New Year!"

Pigsy said to a customer with a fake smile, "Is it just me or does Pigsy seem more.. stressed than normal? Isn't Mk meant to be working today?". Mr. Tang cringed at Pigsy's face, it was extremely visible that Pigsy was trying his best not to yell at us.

"YES TANG HE IS!!! WHERE IS THAT PUNK CAUSE HE SURE AIN'T HERE!!!" Pigsy snapped.

"Calm down Pigsy! It's the new years!" I told him.

"He's training with the Monkey King. He said, 'New year! New Mk! I'm gonna take my training to a whole new level!' "

Mei stood on the counter and used a broom as a staff to mimic Mk's heroic pose, I chuckled on the side. "Wow." Mr. Tang sarcastically said.

"Give me that! 'New year, new Mk.' Keep going like this, he's gonna be newly unemployed! I mean it! If Mk don't get here soon- AHH!"

Pigsy was cut off by Sandy dumping a huge pile of goodies on him, "You ok Pigsy?" I leaned over the pile.

"Good cheer and happy new year! Look at all these delicious little goodies! I got enough to share!" Sandy told us happily.

"Thanks!"

"Ooh! Thanks Sandy!"

"So... Uh... Where's Mk?"

Sandy asked us, Pigsy climbed up from the goodie pile. "Would you guys please screw around somewhere else?! I got a business to run so if you ain't gonna help, go bother some other noodle shop owner!".

"Fine by me, good luck making the dumplings by yourself!"

"Wait! Y/n don't go!"

I ignored Pigsy, then I jumped out of the truck and went out to explore.
_______________________________________

I saw a food truck with Redson and a customer screaming at him, I went over to see what the commotion was all about.

"Look, I want to speak to the manager."

I went over and gripped his shoulder.

"Bud, no manager is going to speak to you if you disrespect their employees"

I told him, I tried to tell him in the most calming way that I could.

"And why would I listen to you?"

"Oh no, I just wanted to remind you that's all."

I gave the guy a sickening smile, I wanted to disturb the man as much as I could, and it worked, he scoffed and walked away.

"Whatca selling?"

I turned to Redson, he looked disturbed, I think it was because of the glare I gave the customer.
