An Old monk was looking at the Sun shining until he heard footsteps. He looked back to see a young man in armor.
Monk: You're here. Step aboard.
???: This isn't a one-way trip, right?
Monk:(Chuckle) Isn't all of life a one-way trip? Once you embark on the journey, there's no turning back.
The young man looked at the monk and nods. He jumps on the boat and sat down. When he was relaxed the boat moved. An image of a monkey with a column was seen.
Monk: Since his early days, he'd had eyes for finer things and the will to wrest them from others. Laying his eyes on, then craving to seize, their riches. No better than the black bear and Jinchi, I say.
The Young man smiled.
???: Not insatiable. Not content with his kingdom and title below he asked for a position in the Celestial Court. But soon after his wish was granted, his joy turned into rage. All because he wasn't invited to a feast. He nearly ruined the entire celestial palace.(Sigh) Ears fume at unfavorable news. Beast are beast, don't you think?
???: He was young though...Just like me he didn't know any better.
Monk: Like his adulthood was any better. Since he was release, he had claimed to have learned manners and discipline; yet his wee prank in Chechi gave him away.
Another memory of Sun posing as someone else was seen facing the other way.
Monk: He degraded the Gods. Clear was his defiance of the doctrines he had learned.(Chuckle) Nose above the air, Feelings above others. I say he was no less insolent than yellowbrow brat.
The young man saw a woman in the distance.
???:.....The Lady Bone Demon. Bajie told me it was her tricks that made his master drive him away.
Monk: On White Tiger Ridge, he forsook his love. Three times he broke her into pieces, convincing himself his heart would never ache again. Yet, as you must know. He had never really let her go. Otherwise he wouldn't have been so eager to get away from Buddahood he attained. Those who talk much of love will one day bite their tongues. On that matter he was akin to Zhu Bajie and his many loves and another friend he knew who has to watch the love of his life die.
The young man looked down not saying a word. Until he looked up again. He gasp when he saw a boat that had him and the monk on a boat.
Monk: Destiny's favor calls for the resolution to sever all desires. You should always mark well these words.
???:....T-These can't be dads memories...You're fooling me aren't you!
Monk: Five of the senses call for one. Dusk, tell me which?
Dusk looked down thinking about them. Then spoke.
Dusk: Eye, Ear, Nose, Body, and Mind.
Monk: What did you just see?
Dusk: The two of us on that boat.
Monk: That was the last one.
Dusk eyes widen and looked at the monk.
Dusk: Then...that means....dad...this is your mind?
Monk: No...not at all.
Dusk: What?
Monk: It's you.
Dusk looked confused by hearing this.
Dusk: That...that's impossible. I have the last name but that doesn't mean I'm Sun Wukong. I was born from a stone.
