❝What can I say? I'm dramatic.❞

FOR DAYS NOW, YOU had been watching Mk from afar, studying his weakness and strength points. His most recent battles with the Demon Bull King and the Spider Queen did show you how powerful Mk became and what to do. Undoubtedly, Mk likes to have his friends' support. What would become of him if they were gone?

This was a theory to test.

However, something else was bothering you. Someone unpleasant had returned back and this was a bit problematic. She will most definitely be after you, so you must remain as discreet as possible. Still, this is a matter of another time. Something more important awaits now.

Anyhow...

With the help of the magical lantern, you can trap them there so Mk will remain vulnerable. To add insult to the injury, Wukong was gone on a vacation. This couldn't be more wonderful, could it? Well, guess what? It did! Mk and his friends were in the Shadow Theater to watch one of your puppet shows. You disguised yourself as a human and put on your black and red robes to hide your identity. With a smirk on your face, you stepped out from behind the curtains, creating creepy atmosphere.

"Welcome viewers to a shadow play the likes of which have never been seen! It follows the tragic tale of a legendary warrior, and how those who bring light into this world inevitability bring darkness to those they hold dear."

The show started as you pulled out the lantern, showing a puppet similar to the Monkey King. You could hear Mk whisper something to Mei about forgetting to buy the snacks before he left to get some. This was your opportunity to make your move, "Like light, heroes bring warmth, hope, and friendship. But they also give life to the darkness." You continued your tale as the lantern glowed a bright purple color, trapping Mk's friends in it. Your plan had worked, all you needed now was just wait.

After a few minutes, Mk returned with a pile of snacks and looked around for his friends. However, his attention shifted to the bright lantern, "The Hero and the Warrior were like the Sun and the Moon. Their light, a protective glow, shining upon the world. Together, there was nothing that could stop the two of them. Either in the Celestial Realms or on Earth. As time went on, the Hero attained power beyond comprehension. As the Hero's light grew, so too did his shadow. And soon, the Warrior was cast in that shadow. In the darkness, the Warrior was forgotten by the Hero."
