Summary:
Mk wakes up to a seemingly perfect life. Perhaps a little too perfect.





It was early in the morning, MK was fast asleep, snoring away in her apartment with a comic book hanging out of her hand. "Hm, fly me to the moon Lady Chang'e...~" she mumbled in her sleep.

All of a sudden she's awaken by the sound of her alarm clock going off. "Ugh, five more minutes." She groaned falling back asleep.

Only to be woken up again by a sudden shake.

"Wha...Earthquake!"

She shouted as she covers her head and closed her eyes. As shaking stops and MK peeks her eye open and looks up in confusion. "Oh no! All my pwecious possessions!" She whined. Suddenly her alarm went off again and her eyes widened.

"It's 9:01?! I'm late for work!" She shouted panicky shouted and cartwheeled out of her bed and hurried to put on her clothes. "My staff! Oh no! Where's my staff?! MK tries to pull her staff out of her ear, but nothing happened.

She notices the time changed again to 9:02.

"Pigsy's gonna kill me!" She quickly puts on her bandana and rushes downstairs. "Pigsy! I'm so sorry I'm late! I overslept and I guess I didn't set an alarm? I mean Honestly, I don't even remember going to bed. And no to mention the earthquake and, and, and...Please don't fire me!"
MK pleaded, clasping her hands together kowtowing.

Fire you?" Pigsy said, before turning around, a bright smile on his face painted across his face. "Fire you? Ha! Why would I fire you?"

MK's jaw dropped, literally. "Um, well, last time you said: If you are one minute late ever again. You. Are. Fired!"

"I said that?" Pigsy asked in confusion, MK nodded.

Tang gave a chuckle, sliding up next to Pigsy, and wrapping an arm around the Pig Demon's shoulder. "That doesn't sound like my best friend, Pigsy!"

"Best friend?!" MK asked, giving the two a look of shock, looking between the scholar and the chef, then she noticed that there wedding rings were gone. "Uh, what's going on here?" MK asked.

Before she could get an answer, there was another earthquake. She lets out a shriek and ducked for cover. "It's happening again!" She shouted.

She panicky shouts as she looks around but then everything suddenly stops and went back to normal. "'Again'? Whatcha talking about, Mk?"

"Do you not feel that?" Mk asked, turning to them. "Feel what?" The pig demon asked, raising a brow. "Aww, I think she's got a case of the Mondays." Tang cooed at the young girl.

"Hmm, perhaps it's an inner air thing?" She hummed. "Oh, the staff!" She tried yo pull the staff out her ear again but fell over as for nothing happened.

"Why the heck isn't anything happening?"

Pigsy chuckles, shaking his head. "The staff ain't in your ear, kid."

"Oh, that's a relief. Wait, then where is it?" The delivery girl asked.

"On top the mountain, sealing away the Demon Bull King and his entire family."

"Say what now?" She blinked in confusion. Since when did all that took place?

"You do remember, right?" Tang asked, before sighing as he turned to Pigsy. "I keep saying you work that poor girl too hard."
