Mercy And Forgiveness

Festival Fugitives

Y/n's P.O.V
After almost getting the life squeezed out of us and getting the second stone, we regrouoed with the others, and went on our way to find the remaining stones.

Which leads us to where we are now.

Were now in a town that was celebrating a festival.

Again.

It was the White Tiger and Teal Dragon Festival.

"The white tiger and the teal dragon festival." Tang began explaining the event. "A world-renowned showcase of art, culinary street food delights! And this year is a special treat, the festival is crawling with CELESTIAL WARRIORS ALL LOOKING FOR US!!!" He shouted.

We all hid in a nearby bush to keep from being spotted by the Celestial guards and bystanders.

"Ah-ta-ta, Tangy. I think the Celestial Host has better things to do than chase around little 'ol uses." Mei attempted to comfort Tang.

"Mei's right!" Sandy agreed with her, looking up at the cracking sky. "They gotta have their hands full with the donked-up sky."

You're probably wondering where ink is. Well, he's still in the jar, in MK's pocket this time.

I leaned closer to MK as I felt him cling to me more.

"Exactly!" Tang shouts. "And we're the ones they think are responsible! We can't go in there! WE'RE WANTED FUGITIVES!"

Pigsy covered Tang's mouth to get him to shut up. "Okay! Dial it back. We are trying to hide here. But yeah, this uh... this does seem like a terrible idea."

"Look, two of the stones pretty much found us. And we were barely even wearing our searching caps!" MK spoke up. "It's like we found them because of desti--."

"MK, if you even so as say that word, we're going to be sleeping separately for a week." I looked at him with the brows furrowed.

MK squeeked. "Yes, Sweet Pea. But I don't know, this... this just feels right. We've got to choose our own path. And be here now."

Mei turned to MK. "All I know is that we're way overdue for a classic MK, Y/n, and Mei adventure! White Tiger and Teal Dragon, that's basically my thing, huh? Huh?! LEGGO!!"

Mei started to waltz into the festival, but Tang pulled her back.

"Whoa! People will recognize us!" Tang informed Mei. "We're not the most inconspicuous bunch."

Pigsy looked at Tang with crossed arms, Monkey King was just standing there, and Sandy was making puppy dog eyes.

"What are you saying to me...?" Sandy pouts.

"I'm just saying we're easy to recognize." Tang pointed out.

"Of course, my Sweet Pea would be recognizable. She shines no matter wherever she goes." MK syas with stars in his eyes.

I cleared my throat, blushing. "Well, we still need a way to get into the festival."

MK gasps, getting an idea. "Oh! If we need to hide in plain sight, we'll use my most powerful ability!" MK did a dramatic pose.

"Whoa!" The others gasp.

"Borrowing stuff from that merch store!" MK pointed to a stand.

Merch was suddenly stolen from a random stand as we all found ourselves decked out in festival gear.

MK and Mei wore hats and glasses, and Monkey King had on a scarf.

Sandy has a White Tiger mask, Pigsy had Teal Dragon glasses, and Tang wore a headband with both Teal Dragon and White Tiger on it.
