The Sun's Shadowy Flame

A Series of Interesting Events

I awake to the sun beaming brightly in my room and to the sound of a call coming through. Groaning, I answer the call groggily, and a very excited Mei tells me to get my butt to Sandy's boat to hang out. I laugh and tell her I'll be there in a flash.

I took a quick shower, brushed my curly mane, grabbed my small backpack purse, and stuffed my phone, a charger, house keys, moped scooter keys, and some snacks for the road. I started to leave my room but looked at my vanity and saw the gift Monkey King gave me shining in the mirror. I grab the comb place it gently into my hair and skip out of the room.

Quietly and successfully sneaking past a busy Pigsy, I hop onto my moped and zoom in the direction of Sandy's boat. I arrive just in time to hear the last bit of a news program covering last night's shenanigans.

"Sup, guys?" I say as I climb up the steps to where everyone is on deck.

"Nuwa!" Mei and MK shout excitedly

"You slept in today," Mei says while flicking my forehead gently

"I slept like a baby, you know saving the world isn't easy," I say while high-fiving MK

After he does a quick reenactment of last night's events, he punctures a hole in Sandy's boat. We try to figure out how to clog the leak while Tang gets his daily tongue-lashing from Pigsy.

"Look out," Sandy shouts as a crate starts to fall overhead.

Everyone gets out of the way except MK, which thankfully doesn't crush him. He pops out the top of the crate, yelling at the top of his lungs.

"I am invincible!"

I take a huge sigh of relief, but it's short-lived when Mei pulls out a bazooka and shoots it at MK, and as I was close to MK, I got hit with the explosion after effects.

"Ugh...." I say while dusting myself off and seeing that MK is unscathed again.

Pigsy breathes a sigh of frustration

"Look, kid, you're a superhero now. You're going to need -" He was then cut off by Mei

"A cape! Maybe a logo, or a headquarters, some vehicles, you know all the stuff to help you beat bad guys, " Mei says excitedly

"Totally! I can see it now!" I say

"To the secret base!" Mei jumps up to the entrance of this secret base, and a door opens.

Everyone gasps and looks on in awe. We all rush to the entrance and go down to the lair, which is a tight fit in the elevator. But once we reached the level, I was shell-shocked at how quickly she put this together and started looking around. I suddenly get a chill up and down my spine MK notices and walks up to me.

"Something is happening," I say to him

I get back in the elevator, making my way to the deck. I turn the TV on and see that Red Son has taken over the Weather Machine. Everyone soon follows suit and sees the broadcast.

"Oh yeah!" MK, Mei, and I shout, but for different reasons

Mine was to beat the lights out of Red Son and MK, and Mei's was to test out MK's Monkey King powers. Pigsy tries to reason with him, but it doesn't even reach MK's ears as he shoots off with the staff, I grab on to hitch a ride, and we mack our way to Red Son.

"Not so fast, Red Son!" MK says

"Noodle Boy....and accomplice," Red Son says as he turns around in the weather manager chair

"Ugh, really, I have a name, you know, or at least come up with a better nickname!" I shout and balk my hand into a fist

"I thought I smelled garbage," Red Son says, completely ignoring what I just said
