Mercy And Forgiveness

The First Ring

Y/n's P.O.V
After getting away from Macaque, we were all walking through the scorching hot desert.

MK and Mei were riding on Samdy's back, exhausted , and me, well I was just walking.

"Dumb Macaque. Dumb desert. Not blaming you or anything, MK." Mei says tiredly.

"You know what? I can't even at you right now, Mei." MK said, panting from the heat.

"You sure you don't want me to carry you to, Y/n?" Sandy says to me.

"No, thank you, Sandy, I'm fine." I told him.

I'm not really feeling the heat, the only thing I feel is this curse eating away at my throat.

"Don't worry, gang. We just have to keep moving forever and ever until we're--." Sandy collapses on the ground.

Right after everyone collapsed on the ground, a race car appeared.

"Noodle Girl and Noodle Boy." Redson glares at us.

I sighed in relief. "There you are. Took you forever. Now, help me get them into your car."

Redson had brought us to Demon Bull King's fortress, or is home to keep it simple, and gave us food to eat.

"That's the good stuff." MK chows down.

"You're welcome, by the way." Redson spoke up, his arms crossed.

"Thanks, Red Boy. You're the man." Mei said, her mouth full of food.

"It's Redson!" Redson corrected her. "I should have just left you to the vultures."

"Welp, I'm thankful you didn't, Redson." I said to him.

"At least someone can say my name right." Redson said.

"Yo. Your new crib is tight!" MK ran off. "Very nice acoustics, too."

Redson got angry, bringing him back. "Would you stop being so annoying? You four aren't even supposed to be here, so I'd appreciate if you finished up and went about whatever obnoxious business you were in the middle of before I saved your pathetic, meaningless lives."

"On it, boss. Your wish is our demand." MK saluted.

"What were you noodle brains doing out there anyway?" Redson asks, annoyed by us.

"Looking for the Samadhi Fire." Mei stated bluntly.

Redson spat out the water he was drinking. "The Samadhi wha--?"

From the lava falls behind us, DBK appears.

"The little thief and other worlder returns." DBK looks down at us.

"Yo. Daddy. I mean, demon daddy. I mean, Mr. Bull King, sir. We -- we still cool, right?" MK freaks out.

"I was expecting a banquet. I wasn't expecting company." PIF made her appearance.

Here we are, sitting at the table with the Demon Bull Family, and it was awkward.

"This is so awkward." Sandy says.

"Uh-huh." Mei nods.

"This is why I don't like socializing." I spoke.

PIF rubs her head. "I trust you realize our little truce is, at best, a fragile thing. So, tell me, what precisely have you intruded on our dinner plans?"

"They're looking for the Samadhi Fire." Redson told his parents.

"What?!" DBK's eyes widened.

"I see you've heard of it?" MK says.
