Snow and ice fell from the clouds in the sky. It was a cold winter. The peasants were preparing for a tough winter in the village.

One peasant stood out from the crowd. He had a black cloth covering his face, but a brown tail could be seen sticking out from behind. This man, no monkey, was Sun Wukong.

He had just come back from a long battle between him and the Demon Bull King. DBK was an evil villain wanting to rule the land with his iron fist. Sun Wukong had finally stopped DBK once and for all.

Finally, sealing him away beneath a mountain with only his staff separation DBK from the human realm and spirit realm.

Sun Wukong walked around the village market looking for his favorite snack. They were peaches. His favorite pass time treat, after a successful battle saving the human realm once again.

The monkey king payed the vendor, handsomely, for a ton of fresh peaches. He was contempt with the peaceful afternoon air. It was beautiful, but chilly.

Suddenly, a small pink creature appeared on the monkey's shoulder. Sun Wukong looked on in astonishment. "Hey, little guy! You want a bite?" He offered.

The small creature looked at the bag of peaches in the monkey's grasp. Then, the pink creature snatched up the bag of peaches from his grasp. Sun Wukong was too slow to process the situation.

This creature just stole his peaches. "Hey! Get back here, you thief!" Sun Wukong shouted. He ran straight after the small creature. It seemed to look like a bunny, but more rounded.

The creature had led Sun Wukong down an ally way towards the back of the village. He ended at the edge of a hill. On top of the hill, stood a dead cherry blossom tree. It was once filled with beautiful pink blossoms.

Sun Wukong looked left and right for the small creature. It was no where to be seen. Then, he heard humming from the top of the hill. The monkey walked up the hill towards the tree.

There sat a woman with the small creature in her hands. Next to her, was the monkey's missing bag of peaches. "There you are, you thief! Give me my peaches!" He said, angrily.

Then, the strange woman turned around while still holding the small creature. Sun Wukong study the woman's features.

She had long white hair with blue tips. Also, she had deep red eyes. The odd-looking woman wore a red kimono with tiny skulls. Definitely, a rare beauty. Then, she spoke.

"I'm sorry, sir. Are these your peaches?" She spoke, softly. Sun Wukong was mesmerized by her angelic voice. He blushed. "Choi, usually doesn't steal from strangers. He just really likes peaches." She continued.

It felt like time had stopped for Sun Wukong and Tachibana Akira. The cold wind flew through Akita's hair. It made Sun Wukong eyes sparkle at the beautiful sight.

His heart started beating faster and faster. "Heh, no worries, honey. I can always get an extra bag from the vendor. I did save you after all." Sun Wukong smirked, at the mention of his heroism.

"Who are you, exactly?" Akira questioned. The monkey king became shell shocked. 'How does she not know of me?' He thought.

"Well, I'm Sun Wukong. But, you can call me your king, honey." Sun Wukong said. He tried to add in a little hint of flirtatious attitude to his demeanor.

Akira became uncomfortable at the sight of his flirtatious attitude. It had been a long time since she experienced such a strange character. Akira laughed at his comment.

Sun Wukong stood astonished and embarrassed at the factor of her laughter. Though, it was music to his ears.

"Well, your highness! I'm Tachibana Akira. Nice to meet you." She said, smiling. Sun Wukong admired her smile. The thing he admired the most were her deep red eyes.

He could tell they held so many secrets. Sun Wukong wanted to know all her secrets. If only he really knew how deep her secrets were.

"I love you, already, honey!" Sun Wukong said, excitedly. This began a wonderful, but strange friendship between two gods.

A goddess of spirits and monkey king.

If only he knew she was actually a goddess.
