A Mystical Journey (LMK Fanfic)

Into the Pagoda

Y'ALL...I wrote "Padoga" like 15 times in the other episodes before realizing it's spelled and pronounced as "Pagoda"... I looked at the title and then ALSO realized I wrote it wrong too... (I'm second-guessing myself...)

"Mwahahaha! You have entered the lair of the...Red Mane Ji—" A demon imprisoned in the Pagoda tried to intimidate the team but was kicked in the face by Sun Wukong himself.

He grew surprised to see the Great Sage, "M-M-M-Monkey King?!"

You tended to Yang on Sandy's shoulder, deeming it the safest place other than your back, since you didn't know who you could encounter in the prison.

The demon blushed when seeing your face, he straightened himself when you glanced at him, "Whoa...How...beautiful..."

But of course, your husband hardened his gaze at him, being protective, "Uh...Whoops...I'm just gonna go!" He quickly left.

Mei wasn't about to let him off the hook, "Hey! You get back here mister!" She chased after the demon as they went through numerous doors.

You silently walked near her, "Mei, sweetie...? Did I mention that the Pagoda is an endless prison with doorways...?"

She huffed as she was seen on the ground after falling from a door on the ceiling, "URGH! This Pagoda is so CONFUSING!"

MK slightly laughed, making Mei not happy about his attitude, "Ah, ah! Don't you smile!" She pointed an accusing finger at him, "We have been wandering around Li Jing's cool magic prison thingy for a WHILE now!"

It's time we have a little talk about how bringing us here is the dumbest thing MK's ever done," she smiled sickeningly, having a fist that was about to pop by how many veins appeared.

"HEY!" MK was not pleased with being exposed, "Yeah!" Wukong joined in, backing up his student, "The kid's done PLENTY of dumber stuff than this."

"Yeah!" He was happy that at least someone was on his side.

"Wait..."

He couldn't finish his sentence when sensing your stare from afar, "Just don't look her in the eyes, kid. You'll survive..." The Great Sage whispered, also averting your gaze.

"We're in this inescapable prison, fighting every demon Li Jing's EVER trapped looking for the Jade Emperor's power which MIGHT not even be here!" Mei explained their situation.

She didn't even know how they were going to stabilize it, "If we ever find it, it might not even be the thing we're looking for. DUMB!~"

Tang agreed, "Sorry, MK. But this does seem like something we should've discussed first."

"I just...I just...I-I KNOW it! I can-I can feel in my monkey bones," he insisted, "The Jade Emperor's power is here and it is the Fifth stone."

Pigsy sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose, "Look kid, this just doesn't make a ton of sense."

MK huffed like an angry baby, "Then there's only one way to explain it to you."

He pointed to the reincarnation of Tang Sangzang, "Tang, glasses!" Once his glasses were taken his eyes became more prominent, "Ooh!~ You look pretty, Tang! Might even be more pretty than me!" You chuckled.
