Calabash

MK snores as he slept on his bed, then suddenly a earthquake started. He squeak and sat up, "What?! Wait, an earthquake?!" He yelped but had a sad '<:o' expression, "Oh, no-o-o-o. All my pwecious pwossessions." He then looks to his clock and had a shocked look, "Wait... 9:01?!" He stood up and got his stuff ready, "I'm late for work!" He panics, "Oh, my staff! My staff!! Where's my staff!!" He then seed the clock tick a bit, "Oh!! Pigsy's gonna kill me!" He then got himself ready, "Okay. Socks. Jacket. Bandana. LEGO!"

He then dashes downstairs, "And I'm here!" He then went on his knees, "Pigsy! I'm so sorry I'm late. I overslept, and I guess I didn't set an alarm?" He felt confused, "Honestly I don't even remember going to bed. And the earthquake, an-and-" He begged  "Please don't fire me..."

Pigsy slowly turns to him, "Fire you?" He then grins, "Why would I fire you?" Mk felt confused, "Uh... Well, last time you said, "If you are one minute late every again, YOU. ARE. FIRED!!!"" Pigsy tilts his head, "I said that?" Tang chuckles, "That doesn't sound like my best friend, Pigsy."

"Uh-"

The world suddenly shakes as both Tang and Pigsy glitched.

MK shouts, "It's happening again!" Pigsy questioned, "Again? What are you talking about, MK?" MK looked to him, "Did you not feel that?" Pigsy narrowed his eyes, "Feel what?" Tang sighs, "I think MK's got a real case of the Mondays, hmm?" MK frowns, "Hmm, maybe it's an inner ear thing?" He then tried to remove the staff from his ear, "Oh, the staff. Yep. Uh, must be in there real good."

Pigsy laughed, "Your staff ain't in your ear, kid." MK sighs with relief, "Oh, that's a relief." He then asked, "Wait, where is it?" Tang explained, "On top of the mountain, sealing away the Demon Bull King, and his entire fanily." MK was confused, "Uh, say what now?" He then looked around, "Wait, where's Y/n?" Tang questioned, "Who?"

MK shook his head, "Never mind... Um..." Tang looked to him, "You do remember, right?" He then shook head head, holding Pigsy's hand, "I keep saying you work him too hard." Pigsy then sternly says, "That's it. You're taking a day off."

You were just in your human form, sitting on a chair though you felt annoyed by Tang's random questions so you just threw the dragon of books at his face to which he said, "Oh, thank you." You rolled your eyes and wondered why MK was taking so long and you didn't feel the bonding part when he is in danger so you thought he was taking so long for some odd reason.

Yin pulled at the Calabash, "No, it's my turn! You're just gonna tell MK everything's perfect again!" Jin retorted, "Oi! You forfeited your turn when you told me they should be in love!" Yin huffed and removed the two photos from the heart, "Oh, that was your idea! Besides who is that Y/n anyways?" Jin shruggs, "No clue, but those two are just friends. You should know that."

Yin then crossed his arms in thought, "Well, there's got to be something about this in our scheme book." He then took out a very large book on the table and opened it, "Okay, uh, let's see here. Step one: Imprison Monkie Kid in Calabash." Jin nodded, "Right. Done." Yin looked to the next step, "Step two: Convince Monkie Kid he's not in Calabash." Jin shrugged, "Okay. We'll call that one " work in progress". Next?" Yin went to go to the next step, "Yeah... That's-" he paused, "That's it." He looked to his brother, "It's just the two steps."

Jin faceplamed, "Oh! We really need to put in more time into the development stage." He took the Calabash, "All right, all right, I can fix this." Jin then cleared his throat and pitched his voice higher to impersonate Mei, "Haha, did I say in love?"

Mei nervously smiled, "I meant to say... I love being your friend." She nervously laughs as MK sweatdrops, "Uh, you know what? I-I need to- Uh..." He turned away, "Uh, I'll see you later." Mei tilts her head, "As friends?" MK nervously smiled, "Yep." MK then dashed away.

Mei grins, "I think I nailed it." Sandy cracked his knuckles, "Hm, let's make sure."

MK in the meanwhile ran and left into an Alley, "Man, I need to find Monkey King or Y/n! They'll know what to do!" Then he yelp when he trips into the trash. Them suddenly Monkey King, Sun Wukong showed up, "How you doing down there?" MK gasps, "Monkey King!" He sat up, "Wait a minute..." He turns confused, "What are you doing here?" Monkey King chuckled, "Ah, you know. Hanging, chilling. Monkey Kinging around." He lazily grins and hops off his cloud, "Uh, anyway, enough about me. What's new with you? You seem agitated."

---

You felt as if MK was in danger and suddenly left the Noodle Shop without answering back to Pigsy, Mei, and Tang.

You didn't turn into your dragon form due to random mortals walking around, so you ran, 'What has MK got himself into this time?'

❦ Time skip ❦

You made it but saw two random demons run off to which you shrugged it off but they shouted.

"We're the greatest tricksters."

"Ever!"

You had a confused expression and walked into the run down building to see MK. You sigh with a smol relief and walked over to him, "MK?" Mk yelped and looked to you. He realizes it's just you and hugged onto you, "Y/n!!!" He had tears and was tightly hugging you. You sweatdrop and had a confused expression, "Um... Why are you crying?"

MK sobbed, "M-Me was in Calabash and you weren't even in there at all!" You sigh and just gently headpat him, "It's alright. I'm here now..." You then find yourself just listening to MK's weird and a bit creepy adventure.
