Krish's journey

Chapter 1.1: The beginning

Despite my love for venturing out and exploring like Dora, the weight of my hefty workload
shackles me from indulging in such pursuits. Just like any other day I have to go to college
which is held at night. A heavy rain was pouring throughout the city, I was walking as a cold
breeze passed through. A breeze that could send anyone shivering. But as a student, I have no
other choice other than to attend school or else, my parents could end my life. Unwillingly
dragged myself to the school. I was praying to the gods, for some miracle to happen to escape
this repetitious learning of boring knowledge which I am not interested in. I wished to get
powers out of nowhere, powers like super strength and super speed. Even though I knew that
would be near impossible. I just wanted power to be famous so that I would be able to receive
more recognition.Little did I know that the fateful answer to my prayers awaited me in the
darkest corners of an alley, hidden beneath the symphony of raindrops.. As I was walking to my
destination, A thunderous explosion echoed a few meters in the distance, jolting the surrounding
silence. away from me in a dark alley. At first, I thought it was a movie but it sounded real to me,
then I thought It was a gunshot but this is not America, this is Singapore. In curiosity, I ran
towards the sound it came from. I was able to see bright sparks from the distance, from the left
corner. I also realized that the place where I was running was deserted. Which shocked me, but
did not scare me one bit. I was coming closer and closer each second. My heartbeat started
pumping faster and faster and when I reached the Bright sparks danced in the night, illuminating
a surreal scene of a hybrid monkey, wielding a glowing bo staff like a mythical guardian

resembling sun wukong. The hybrid monkey was fighting a menacing 7-foot troll with crimson

Skin and razor-sharp fangs, brandishing a fiery ax. I thought I was going insane or mad, I even
had a theory that I had accidentally drank alcohol thinking it was grape juice. But remember not
drinking any type of juice so the theory is not possible. Lost in deep contemplation, my thoughts
honed in with unwavering focus. The troll started to swing the ax towards me.Petrified in terror, I
acknowledged the harsh reality , there was nothing I could do to defeat this 7-foot troll after all I
was skinny and weak. The ax was so close to slitting my throat that, at that moment the hybrid
monkey blocked the attack with the bo staff. The hybrid monkey created a fire slash and cut the
troll in half. At that moment the hybrid monkey with the bo staff introduced himself as Kong, and
I wondered why many monkey-looking characters have similar names. For example, from Mario,
we have Kong and King Kong from the Godzilla movie. I introduced myself as Krish, a boy who is
studying at a nearby college. The hybrid monkey also known as Kong, questioned how I was
able to see him, as a normal human or not able to see them. Before I could grasp the
implications, a magic portal materialized, promising passage to Kong's realm. He bid me
farewell and was preparing himself to go to his world. A magic portal appeared in front of him,
and the bo-staff Kong was holding became a magic broom like the one from Harry Potter, and
started levitating. He entered the magic portal and vanished. The portal was about to disappear,
I stood at the precipice of a decision knowing it would be dangerous and life-threatening.
However, I really wanted to know what is on the other side of the portal. My intrusive thoughts
won and quickly ran into the portal. Not knowing this impulsive leap into the portal marked the
beginning of a journey that would redefine my destiny, transcending the limits of both worlds.
