A young woman just walked into Pigsy noodles. She has goldish hair and black, purple and red outfit. She sat down by the counter and beside an adult man with smooth black hair that is combed to the side. Then a pig demon on the other side of the counter came over.

"Welcome to Pigsy noodles, what would you like to eat?" The pig demon said to the young woman.

"I would like to have the chicken noodles, please." The young woman said, making the pig demon nod.

The pig demon left to make the young woman's noodles. The smooth black hair guy noticed that the young woman was sad.

"Why so sad? Kid." He said to her, the pig demon looked at him.

"Tang! Don't be mean to the customer." The pig demon said to the black hair guy.

"No worries, it's just that I couldn't find a job." The young woman said to them.

"Oh I know, Pigsy you're still looking for someone who can work with you right?" Tang said to the pig demon.

"Yeah I am, so what's your name Ms?" Pigsy said.

"My name is Ashley." She said, then suddenly the sound of a motorcycle came from outside.

"That must be Mei, probably looking for MK." Pigsy said, he put the bowl of chicken noodles down. "This is on the house." Then he went outside.

"MK! Where are you, you punk? You mind telling me why some bozo left a zero-star review on Pigsy's Noodles?" Pigsy said as he got closer to the kids.

"Oh! Uh, yeah. So, uh, here's what I think happened with that-" MK said but got interrupted by Mei.

"Woah, zero stars! Congrats! That's better than nothing, right?" Mei said, but MK ran inside to tell Tang what happened.

"Mr. Tang!" MK yelled out.

Tang was interrupted by MK, causing him to spit his soup everywhere.

"(wiping his mouth) Hmm?" Tang cleans his mouth.

"(started frantically searching all over the counter) "Remember the story you told me this morning? About the Demon Bull King? Argh, where is it? Where is it? Where is it? (He spots his book underneath a pile of bowls, swiping it and causing the pile to fall.) Ah, there it is. The Demon Bull King, see?" MK said to Tang.

'Demon Bull King?' Ashley questioned.

"Argh, kid! What are you doing to my kitchen?" Pigsy said.

"(disinterested) Yeah? (he sips his noodles) What about him?" Tang said.

"(leaping onto Tang) The Demon Bull King is back! The legend is real! The Monkey King's staff is removed! We have to find him! It's the only way to save everyone before the world is destr-" MK said.

"(pushes MK back with his chopsticks) Boy, relax. You're getting spittle in my soup. Besides, you're delusional. It's just a story." Tang said.

"Delusional, huh? Would you call this delusional? (he reveals the staff)" MK said as he pulled out a staff.

" Wow, MK. You found a stick!" Mei exclaimed.

"No, it's Monkey King's staff!" MK said.

The other three all burst into laughter except Ashley.

"You aren't listening! Demon Bull King is out there. We have to get the staff back to the Monkey King! It's the real deal. I'll prove it." MK said.

"Oh, yeah? How?" Pigsy said.

"Uh... (The staff extends itself, crushing the table Tang and Mei are sitting at.)" MK couldn't say anything until the staff moved.

"Monkey King's staff! I knew it all along! The legendary weapon that only he could wield to seal away evil! Wait a minute. Why do you have it?" Tang excitedly said until it became questionable.
