How it all started

It all started one evening when Wukong was out checking on the monkeys on Flower Fruit Mountain as it was their hatching season. Whilst Wukong was checking up on the mothers and their new cubs, Mk was waiting back in the cave behind the waterfall and sitting underneath the peach tree that grew next to their hut. Mk was about 8 in human years, and so he got bored quite fast, and as he was now older, he was also more reckless, just like how Wukong had been before his Journey To The West, so he snuck out of the cave coming through the waterfall with soaking wet fur to look for an adventure.

He quickly dried himself off by shaking any excess water off of him, but he still left a trail of water behind him, and a group of demons coming to take some of the cubs found the water track he left behind and choosing to follow it. Wukong was just finishing his check-ups with the mother's and their cubs when one of the older monkeys he called Scamp came up to him sounding distressed. They told him that 6 demons had come onto the island and were looking for some of the new cubs, Wukong obviously not wanting any of his troop to get hurt sent them to the cave and asked Scamp to check on Mk to make sure he was OK.

Then, after making sure all monkeys were safe in the cave, he called over Scamp and asked where Mk was to which he replied in chirps that Wukong could understand because he was a fellow monkey, "I can't find him anywhere and when I had a peek outside the waterfall i saw tracks of water going into the forest, both big like the demons and small like the Princes." Now alarmed that Mk is out there somewhere with demons, Wukong jumped on his cloud and rushed out of the cave to go look for him and cover more ground.

Mk was now basically dry, but he hadn't noticed that he couldn't hear the chirping of monkeys anywhere and instead just continued on exploring and unknowingly being followed.

The demons who were behind Mk caught up to him as they were giants compared to Mk, and when they caught sight of the young monkey, one of them picked up a vine from the floor, snuck up behind the Prince and tied his paws behind his back then calling over his friends who brought over 2 more vines, one that went around his feet so he couldn't run away and the other being tied around his mouth like a gag so he couldn't call for help. Now distressing at the situation, Mk tried to escape by using his powers, but he was too panicked to focus, so he just wriggled in his restraints to try and get away.

After making sure the ropes were tight so he couldn't escape, the demons cheered that they caught one as usually they would either get killed or noticed by Sun Wukong and believe it or not they used to have over 100 demons in their group alone. One of the demons then picked Mk up and threw him over his shoulder, holding down his back so he couldn't escape and they then began to walk back to the shore where they had a boat waiting for them. As much as it would be better to have more than one catch, they needed to get away as fast as possible before they were discovered and subsequently killed with no mercy. Little did they know the monkey they caught was the little brother to the very being they are trying to avoid confrontation with.

(In other words, when Wukong finds them, they are FUCKED!)

Now, becoming more panicked as he was unable to find Mk and the  water trail he'd been following had dried up so he had no idea where they could be, so worry and concern was plastered all over his face as his gaze was everywhere looking for any sort of clue as to where they could be. As the sun was starting to set, he became somehow even more terrified at the thought of him being too late, but suddenly he spotted a boat at the shore and headed over to it an as he got close he halted to a stop.

After stopping, he saw something come out of the trees, to which he was hit with a wave of relief as he saw Mk with the demons then that relief was quickly replaced with determination and anger as he rushed down on his cloud and landed in front of them making a creator in the sand and sending some of the sand flying up and then falling like dust. The demons couldn't see anything, and Mk was facing the other way, so he couldn't either, but every one of them felt a chill down their spine as they saw glowing red eyes staring at them through the sand that was still settling. Once the sand settled, they saw who the powerful being in front of them was, and they all backed away in fear.

Mk was curious as to what was going on, but he could guess from the magic he was sensing and knew who it was immediately. The vine that had been used on his mouth fell off as he had been using his fangs to bite through it, and once it fell, he called out, "Big brother!" After hearing this, the demons looked at the monkey they had captured and realised they had made a grave mistake. Taking one of the normal demon monkeys would have been better as they still would have been killed, but it would have at least been quick. However, after realising they had taken his little brother, a quick release was out of the question, and they knew they were going to die a painful and excruciating death.

Wukong then lunged forwards towards the one that was holding Mk, and he then kicked them in the chest as they sent them back, but just before they went flying, he grabbed Mk so he didn't go with them. After Mk was in his arms, he hugged him tightly as he sighed in relief that he was ok.

The 5 demons in the group saw what happened to their partner and chose to use  this moment to get away, and they tried to get to their boat and at least make it far enough so they have a chance of survivng. As Wukong was holding Mk, he saw the demons trying to escape, and while still holding Mk in one arm, he pulled out some of his hair, and he blew on it, then with a puff of smoke 3 clones of Monkey King appeared, he then sent them after the demons and they did as commanded making sure their deaths lasted as long as possible.

After sending off the clones, he brought his attention back to Mk, and he untied the vines from his hands and legs. Then, once free, Mk brought his hands around his brother and hugged him tightly like he was going to be taken again.

Seconds later, pained screams filled the air as the last of the demons was now  dead, and the boat they were once in was half sunk, and in that moment, Wukong looked at the boat then back to Mk and decided he would protect Mk better from now on.

After all the adrenaline had worn off, Mk felt quite tired, so he curled himself up into a ball, and then he slowly drifted off to sleep and resting his head on Wukongs shoulder. Wukong then waited for Mk to fall deeper into his sleep before heading back to the cave so he didn't wake Mk up whilst going back.

Once reaching the top of the mountain and making it to the waterfall, he walked into the cave where he was met with mo keys swarming him left and right wondering if the Prince was okay. Wukong quietened all of them, saying, "I am sure you have questions, but he is tired and needs rest, so you will have to wait until he wakes up. I don't want anyone to disturb him. Is that understood?" The troop then all nodded their heads as they understood he needed rest, and they were all just glad he was ok.

After getting through all the monkeys and doing a quick head count, Wukong walked into the hut and went into his room, proceeding to lay Mk down on the bed. Mk had his own room, but Wukong won't be able to sleep unless Mk was right next to him. After setting him down on the bed, he got into bed himself, pulled the cover up so it was over both of them, then he pulled Mk to his chest so he could hold him in the night to know he was safe and not long after his own adrenaline disappeared and he drifted off to sleep not long after, but before he fell asleep he wrapped his tail around Mk's so he knew he was all there then he fell asleep.

TO BE CONTINUED....

(I am going to continue this one, and I am sorry if it is a bit strange. I am doing an all-nighter to prove to myself I can, and it's now 21:48 pm, so I am just starting this.

Hope you like it and see you in the next update)
