Dawn of Legends

The Bored Sun and The Lost Chief

In the deep lush forests that surrond the land, Sun was jumping from tree to tree as he was journeying through the area. Fast yet brisk movements of his arms as he grabbed branch by branch, he was looking for something to do.

With an annoyed glance at the seemingly endless amounts of trees, he looked up. "I did escape the wrath of my punishment," the monkey king exclaimed. "Yet it seems that the world isn't feasible for my boredom..."

Sun sighed as he dropped down from the tress that he was dangling on with an audible thud on the forest floor. He twirled his staff out of boredom as he started to walk in the grotto of the forest.

"This world should be a fun place.. yet it seems that it isn't much to do at all." The monkey king complained while walking  through the lushes of green and brown.

The shade emphasized the flame ontop of his head, creating an orange illumination around inside the deep grotto as he was careful on not burning any trees with the burning flame on top of his head.

Trudging along the path, Sun hummed a tune as he kept twirling his staff with his right hand expertly as he walked step by step. The trees rustle from the wind that he was making from his staff, which he was quite amused about as he walked by.

Suddenly, he saw someone crossing the forest near him. The monkey king blinked as he saw the person wearing some sort of red clothed garb with a red bandana tied up on his head. The said person also has two machetes and tatoos were scattered across his body.

Sun smirked as he placed his staff behind his back. "Finally, he seems like he can be challenged!" He exclaimed giddily as he walked across to meet the person that has his eyes on.

The person blinked as he saw Sun walking towards him. "Hey you... monkey." He exclaimed as he blinked in confusion. The monkey king smirked confidently as he was in close proximities with the man.

"Well, well.. it is seem that I have finally found an opponent to face!" Sun exclaimed in a booming voice. The person in front of him blinked.

"...ehm, what?" He asked, confused. The monkey king chuckled as he grabbed his staff and twirled it around.

"Well, aren't you a fighter?" He exclaimed, which made the person nod slowly. "Well then, I want to duel you to see if you are strong enough!"

The person blinked. "And what makes you think that I will accept your challenge just like that?" He asked again in question, which made the monkey king' smile faulter.

"Don't you wanna test your strength against the best fighter there is in the human realm?" Sun asked, a bit insulted that the person in front of him didn't want to fight. "If I were you, I would be thrilled to face someone superior than me."

The person in question rolled his eyes. "I have no time to be a mindless brute," He stated as he sheathed both of his swords, which made the moneky king even more bummed. "Because I, Lapu-Lapu, need to find my homeland."

Blinking at that answer, Sun asked. "What do you mean?"

The person, now identified as Lapu-Lapu, sighed. "By unfortunate reasons, I don't know," He answered honestly. "My tribe and I were fighting against fearsome invaders till my tribe won and then everything went black."

The monkey king rubbed his chin in thought. "That is rather peculiar," He replied before shrugging. "Well, if that happened, that means you are stuck here till you find a general direction."

The chieftain nodded. "Indeed, I was looking for someone to guide my way out of this forest," He exclaimed before smiling as an idea pop into his head. "Perhaps maybe after you help me get out of here, I can manage a duel with you of some kind as payment."

Sun smirked as he nodded. "Deal." He replied as the two shook their hands as a sign of sealing the deal. "So where are you headed anyways?"

Lapu-Lapu shrugged. "Maybe a town perhaps? That could help me gather information that are essential for me to find a way back to my land." He said. Sun scratched his head in question as he was trying to remember stuff.

"Well, there is no town here, only cities such as City of Scholars are nearby." The monkey king replied as he returned his staff on his back. "That should be good enough to accomodate what you need."

The chieftain nodded. "Well then, can you now please show me the way out of here?" He asked, which made Sun smile cheekily.

"Sure, as long as you don't disappoint me when we fight after I guide you out of here." He stated, making Lapu-Lapu nod in confirmation.

"Of'course, chieftains will always keep their word." He replied before smirking. "Perhaps you'll be the one tasting the dirt instead."

The monkey king snorted. "In your dreams." He said in an exaggerated manner as they started to walk down the forestry path once more.

A short yet rather interesting one on the basis of these two fighters as they aren't really used much in stories I have read so I decieded to give them some love.

And oh, to those who are requesting Aluya and Mistes, I have you covered my friends with some good ol' Nite twists with an old musical that I and my classmates had been practicing. Stay tuned for that one tomorrow~ ;)
