Macaque's Redemption

Chapter 1- Freedom

(Macaque POV)

I had just landed on the TEA and was taunting Wukong but I wasn't myself since LBD had brought me back to this world, she had been controlling me in case I would try to betray her. I stood there trying to break her control over me to prevent me from doing or saying anything more to Wukong and just leave, but I could feel the mark on the back of my neck glow even brighter which pushed me back farther. Right before I pounced on Wukong, I had managed to gain just enough control to say one word "Help." and Wukong was just on his back with me pinning him down looking confused. 

"What?" he whispered to himself as I continued to fight against the chains in my mind to say something more to him, give him any hint that I wasn't myself but then her voice just rang out from the darkness. Preventing me from doing anything and eventually, she controlled my body into leaving and heading towards the mountain summit where the last ring was.

I landed and LBD appeared in front of me "What do you think you're doing? You are under my control and you will stay there until I fulfill my destiny." she growled at me, as I continued to fight against her. She made me sit on the top of the wall and wait for the group to arrive, and eventually I just started to go through my memories of the past since I had to sit there for a few days before they got there. 

When they did get there, she continued to make me sit there until right before they grabbed it and then had me swoop down and move it to the top of the wall. "Well, it seems like I just got here in time then." I had stated but the real me was fighting against the chains to break this control. Wukong and I started fighting and the two children joined in eventually but then the ring activated and the girl was then surrounded by Samadhi flames.

This caused me to really fight her control over me to stop the fire because I was one of the only people that knew how to distinguish the flames but at a price, I pulled at the chains and slowly forced my body towards the circle. "You ruin everything!" Wukong yelled at me and then attacked but I had just managed to dodge said attack and he went flying into the wall behind me but right before I reached the circle she appeared in an illusion. "What are you doing?! You are under my control, you shouldn't even be able to move." but I turned my head towards her and smirked, "Well, it seems like your powers have their limits then." The symbol on my neck then cracked and shattered and her powers dispersed from me as I continued to make my way towards the girl.

I could hear LBD yelling at me, the kid and Wukong gasping in surprise, and the girl was looking at me in hope that I would be able to stop this burning flame from killing her and that was what I planned on doing. "Sorry, but this might hurt for a second." I said looking at her and the glowing ring in front of her while she just gave a confused look "What?" she said but I didn't give her a chance. 

I pushed through the barrier around her and grabbed the ring, burning my hands and arms in the process, and the flames threw the girl out and surrounded me instead but I could hear the muffled screams of all the others around me. Eventually I dispersed the flames, with burn marks all over my clothing and my hands/arms covered in burns and collapsed onto my knees holding my hands against me in pain. Then I just felt something wrap around me holding me in the air, constricting my movements and then looked down to see the real LBD there glaring up at me.
