It was early in the morning, MK was fast asleep, snoring away in her apartment. All of a sudden MK is waken by the sound of her alarm clock. "Ugh, five more minutes." She said, falling back asleep, only to be woken up again by a sudden shake.
"Wha...Earthquake!" She shouted and covering her head. The shaking stops and MK looks up in confusion. "No! All my pwecious possessions!" She whimpered. Suddenly her alarm went off again and her eyes widened.
"It's 9:01?! I'm late for work!" She cartwheeled out of her bed and gasped. "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.
"Pigsy's gonna kill me!" She quickly changes into her clothes 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, bowing.
"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, once the rumbling stopped. Unknown to MK, when her back was turned Pigsy and Tang distorted.
"Again? Whatcha talking about, MK?" Pigsy asked, still grinning.
"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, hmm?" Tang cooed.
"Hmm, perhaps it's an inner air thing? She mumbled. Oh, the staff!" She fell over as she tried to pull the staff out of her ear, only for nothing to happen. "What? Why 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 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."
"That's it, you're taking the day off!" Pigsy cheerfully shouted. MK's eyes sparkle and with that, she's out the shop in no time.
"My first day off in two whole years! This is a perfect day!" She said with a smile.
"Perfect!" A crowd of strangers cheered behind the her, MK seemed to pay them no mind.
"No traffic at rush hour!" The girl gasped, speeding down the street, and towards the mall.
