"Halt, evil monster, I must thwart thee!" MK began, spinning the Staff around, clearly showing it off. "For I am... The Monkey KiNAAAGH!" Although his threats to no one were cut short by the staff extending behind him... And almost decapitating Mei in the process.

"Woo! That was awesome!" Mei complemented. Y/N would disagree, but he was listening to her music too loudly to make any words out of it.

Y/N ADORED little nonsense songs. You can just rhyme words and have fun with it! One time Y/N tried to make their own nonsense song, and MK busted into her room singing along, and it made him wonder if an Octoling's ears could bleed-

Wait what happened to the music? Y/N looked up to see Sandy, the giant, holding her OctoPhones in his giant hands, trying so hard not to break them.

"Whoops! Sorry Y/N! I just wanted to see what you were listening to, heheh..." He said, clearly embarrassed. Y/N noticed that and opened their bag and pulled out some Studio Headphones, and adjusted them so they could fit on Sandy's head. He then handed Sandy-

"We're here!" MK yelled out, interrupting Y/N handing Sandy the headphones. "Flower Fruit Mountain! AAAH!" The boat then shook after a geyser erupted, tipping the boat at an angle. This made Y/N fear for her life. They grabbed his bag and clung onto Mr Tang for DEAR LIFE, screaming and crying.

Sure, they lost a crate, but no one of VALUE was lost to the cold, dark abyss that is the ocean. It took both Pigsy AND Sandy to pry Y/N off of Tang, plus an assist from Mo. That Octoling did NOT wanna let go!

"Welcome to the Flaming Mountains, gang! A volcanic ring surrounds the mountain, making it virtually impassable!" Sandy perked up. "This path is the only safe way through, that's as close as the boat can get. Just... Be careful!" Sandy finished.

In the end, the group to walk through the path was Mei, Y/N, Pigsy, and of course, MK. Y/N hated the mountains. He was so afraid of drying out, he didn't notice when they were about to fall into lava!

"Stupid Sandy, stupid Tang, staying cozy in their stupid boat. What did I do to deserve this, Noodle Gods!?" Pigsy complained as the group traveled along the path, almost getting turned into Roast Pork by a geyser in the process. (I HAD TO I'M SORRY)

"Careful, Piggy! yheee!" Mei yelled out, clearly enjoying herself. "You gotta wonder why Monkey King decided to live HERE of all places." Mei and Pigsy both let out a loud gasp at the sight of what, or rather, WHO was floating above MK and Y/N.

Princess Iron Fan. The Demon Bull King's wife.

"You know, when Monkey King had to get through the Flaming Mountains, he actually used Princess Iron Fan's Fan to... blow..." MK slowly said before he was cut off by said Princess chuckling.

"Well, well, well. Aren't you a little Monkey King fanboy?" She cooed, clearly demeaningly. She then lit the tip of her fan on fire and blew a fireball at the group, causing them to all panic and get flung by the blast, forming another 'Sibling Pile', although this one was less fun.

"KIDS! Everyone okay!?" Pigsy questioned, worried about mainly Y/N. They were the youngest, after all! Princess Iron Fan then laughed and claimed "I'll be taking that Staff now." To which MK retaliated with "This belongs to the Monkey King. There's no way I'm letting you take it!"

"Oh, you're just a little Noodle Boy playing at being a hero!" PIF taunted, Y/N chuckled a little bit at the Noodle Boy nickname, but quickly stopped. "Sorry to disappoint." PIF continued...

"Playtime is over." Both MK and Y/N dashed headfirst at Iron Fan, with reckless abandon. "KIDS! NO!" Pigsy yelled as MK swung the Staff and Y/N pulled out their Charger to try and get a clean shot on PIF.

MK almost hit Iron Fan before- She stopped it with some weird glove she summoned, causing MK to freeze mid air. 'A Perfect Shot' Y/N thought as they aimed at Iron Fan and pulled the trigger! But she deflected it with her fan, sending it into the lava. "Don't think I didn't notice you, little Octopus."

She then grabbed the Staff with her gloved hand and sent MK flying off into the distance! "NO! MK!" Mei yelled out, about to run after MK, before Pigsy stopped her from running into a geyser. Y/N stared in disbelief before charging at the Princess, tentacles aglow.

She summoned their ULTRA STAMP and Super-Jumped to Iron Fan! Before she blocked the Ultra Stamp with the Staff, chuckling at the Octoling's feeble attempt to get revenge. "You just saw how I did your own brother in, yet you still fight? Clearly you have more heart than sense." She said taunting Y/N.

She then struck her with the Staff, sending her in the opposite direction of MK, towards the sea. "Oh! I almost forgot! Inklings and Octolings don't last long in water, do they? ohohoho!"

"MEI! WE'VE GOT TO GO!" Pigsy yelled, restraining Mei physically and himself mentally. They then ran back to the boat, while Iron Fan boasted. "At last! The full power of my beloved will be unleashed!" Then she disappeared into the wind.

Elsewhere, while MK woke up on Flower Fruit Mountain, Y/N had crashed through a strangely place dome, into an artificial wonderland.

Hi how are ya? OH BOY. #109 IN SPLATOON FANFICS. WHERE DID YOU PEOPLE COME FROM!?

Fr tho, this is an amazing accomplishment for me. And to think that it all started from me wanting my hyperfixiations to merge! Side Order is gud. Octo Expansion is gud. And Monkie Kid is gud. Why not?

The next chapter surprisingly WON'T be titled A Hero Is Born! I'm gonna work on it, but don't expect it to come out instantly like the other chapters.

(How are you guys liking the song choices so far?)

(There will be some minor Agent 24 in the next chapter, don't worry. I didn't tag it for clickbait) :)
