Chapter Text
When Mk woke up that morning, he really hadn’t expected the day to go like this, first that demon, then that weird lightning, THEN FREAKING MONKEY KING and now he was stuck with no idea where to go, what to do and how the hell he was supposed to do it! Wait you know what, let's just start at the beginning.
Mk’s day started off well enough, deliver some noodles, defeat some minor demons then later maybe hit the arcade.
Sure, the lingering feeling of daily creepiness was there but after Lady Bone Demon almost everything seemed creepy to him so that was finnnneee (probably) still he probably should get that checked out by Monkey King soon. After the expected demon fight of course, Strange… it was late today. Usually wrapped up by 3:30 at the latest. He shrugged and zoomed off.
Sure enough he was finishing off his last delivery when a huge BOOM sounded off into the distance. Mk grinned and dropped the order in the customers hand, “That’s my cue! Enjoy the noodles!”And zoomed off leaving a trail of dust and a very confused woman standing with cash.
MK oblivious to his free delivery smiled a tiny bit as he guessed which demon it would be this time, he hoped it wasn’t those twin people again. They wouldn’t stop talking about their supposed arch nemesis thing with MK even though he sweared he didn’t even know they existed until like a month back.
OOOOH MAYBE IT WAS A NEW DEMON! That would be cool. He skidded to a stop next to the town hall where he had a front row view to the biggest crater he had ever freaking seen. Oh, and also Mei, who unfortunately looked like she had arrived way earlier then MK.
“That’s another game you owe me Mk. You really need a new way to rocket before i empty your pockets.” She sniggered from her jet.
He grumbled; this bet was going to be the end of him. “I was doing DELIVERIES. No need to rub it in like that also don’t you dare insult the noodle mobile.
It’s the most perfect mobile to ever live. Arent you?” He cooed and patted it affectionately.
“Whatever Monkey boy… Im just trying to save your moolah.”
“Yeah yeah…Anyway, who is the guy this time?Is it someone cool?”
“I think so! Its someone new, pretty good one too, actually managed a hit at my jet a while back with his weirdo powers.”
“What powers?”
“Eh some black lightning thingie. May deal a bit of damage but not a biggie.”
“No Mei I think that is a biggi-.”
“MK, WAIT… Guess what this one wants from us!”
“Lemme guess… I don’t think I know…. Except it’s totally revenge on Monkey King isn’t it.”
“Ding Ding Ding.. Give a prize to the monkey in the front. While I’m not a hundred percent sure that’s what he wants, it's still a solid 80 with our track record lately. Seriously dude, you need to talk to him about his enemy making problem.”
Well,she technically wasn’t wrong. Almost 99.99% of the demons that they handled wanted revenge on monkey king and 70% of them turned out to be his ex-friends.
So, really, you couldn’t blame MK for getting a bit frustrated when he kept dealing with them popping up ALMOST EVERY DAY. SERIOUSLY HOW MANY DARN ENEMIES DOES THE GUY HAVE.
Mk tried on multiple occasions to try and ask Monkey king what the hell was going on, but every time he was either shut down, distracted or as for that one time thrown into a swimming pool.It was getting annoying by this point, and he really was not in the mood to deal with even Mei telling him about it, “IM WORKING ON IT MEI!”
“Alright, alright sheesh, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Oh and speaking of working on it, when are you planning to, I don’t know COME DOWN HERE AND HELP?!THE GUY IS ACTUALLY DOING PRETTY GOOD RIGHT NOW AND SOME BACKUP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!” She clenched her teeth. A tendril of lightning shot out from the crater and struck at the green mech which Mei just narrowly dodged.
Mk grabbed his stick “Oh yeah…. On it!”
