Secrets of the Golden Sea

72 transformations, whew that was close!

"Okay kid, you got us here at three AM! What's so important that you had to wake us?" A tired Pigsy yawned out.

"Oh my dear Pigsy, sweet sweet friend, I'm glad you asked. I have gathered you here because I have unlocked the next mystic monkey power!" He said dramatically. Folding his arms as he did so.

"What is it what is it what is it?" Mei fangirled.
"Teleportation, cloud walking, FLYING?" Tang fanboyed.

"No it is far bigger than that! I have learned, Monkey Kings seventy-two transformations!" Mk exclaimed. Jingshen blinked slowly, trying to understand the Chinese language. He leaned against the railing on the roof. Wait why were they in the roof? Mk showed off his pug hand looking creature. He fought the urge to just eat it.

"Nice dog." He giggled, touching its cheek only for said dog to bite his finger.

"Aaawwww a little puppy, Mk you're right this is the best power!" The pug collectively but them both on the face. Jingshen stared at the dog. Ravenous for either eating the dog or petting it.

"Doesn't really look like a power, more of a medical emergency." Pigsy stated, staring at the quite obvious rabid hand.

"Nope I think dog hand is pretty good!"

"I agree, I just want to pet it." Jingshen reached out his hand and gave the dog a little pat. The pug bit his entire hand, refusing to let go of it.

"EH! Bad dog! You let go of Jingy's hand!" Mk narrowed his eyes at the dog. The dog growled at him. He stuck out his tongue.

"Okay, while you three are—wait, Mk, kid, why're 'ya hiding your other hand?" Pigsy asked, raising a brow.

"Okay, but just remember that seventy percent of my job is mopping!" Mk slowly said, making sure everybody heard him.

"What's that gotta do with—" Pigsy gasped as Mk revealed his mop hand. Tang gagged and somebody shrieked.

"Okay yes, so there's some kinks but guys isn't this amazing? Plus the mop comes in handy for cleaning up after this guy!" He said, staring at the pug. "Heh handy, t-this is a good day!" It looked like Mk was about to cry at any moment.

"Mk I think you need a bit more training—" Tang trailed off, wishing he could have just been sleeping instead of staring at the monstrosity that had become Mk's hands.

"Training to make more puppy hands!" Mei shouted.

"Training to become a dog!" Jingshen exclaimed, grabbing Mei by her shoulders and shaking her. "D O G!" Mei nodded in understanding.

"Alright, I think Jingshen and Mei need to sleep." Sandy interrupted.

"NO! YOU'LL NEVER TAKE US ALIVE!" They both screeched.

"Guys, where did Mk go?" Pigsy shouted over the chaos.

"Well, if that large crater in the road is of any significance I'd say Mk is that way." Tang helpfully chimed in. Pigsy turned around shouting.

"I'm too tired to worry about property damage. EVERYONE GO TO SLEEP!" As Pigsy stormed off he grabbed Mei once more.

"WHAT IF WE FOLLOWED MK AND STOLE HIS HANDS?" He shouted in her face.

"Jingshen....THATS BRILLIANT LETS GO!"

•••

"Wait Jingshen, how'd we get into the Spider Queens layer?" Mei asked, scratching her chin.

"Well, I saw Mk go this way."

"You're not answering my question."

"Magic powers."
