Chapter Text
"Honey, there's something I have to tell you."
"What's wrong, peaches? Feeling sick again?"
"Um, well, I'm not actually sick as I thought," Wukong had a nervous look on his face before looking at the warrior with loving eyes.
"I...I..." The nervous monkey placed his paws on his flat stomach. "I'm Pregnant. Again."
"...."
Thud!
Wukong yelped as Macaque starts to wobble and fell backwards to in the ground. He suddenly recalled when he did this the first time he told him.
Wukong sighed loudly. "Dang it not again. Kids! Get a bucket of water please!"
Ever since he found he was pregnant Macaque has been acting so weird, he should be feeling happy. Ever since, you know...they were given another chance to have a kid.
So, why wasn't he feeling happy, but...Sad?l
"What's wrong, aren't you thrilled we're having a cub?" Wukong asked Macaque, noticing his unhappiness.
Macaque gulped, "I-I am, peaches, it's just...Don't you think it's too soon? I mean given everything that happened."
The ebony monkey recalls the events that happened during The Battle of Heaven, the Brotherhood, With Azure. The couple had to rebuild their entire mountain again from scratch.
But, I don't think that's the reason why...
Wukong was taken back by his comment, his eyes riddled with sadness. "What do you mean? I-I thought you'd be happy? I'm finally happy. There's no more battles, no more wars, we can finally-"
"Then maybe we shouldn't!" Macaque roared, He reared back, slamming a hand over his mouth.
Wukong stilled, the words echoing through his head. "W-what?" His voice cracked, heart pounding.
"Wait. No. I didn't mean-" Wukong shoved his partner out of his way, heading towards to door.
"Wukong wait, I didn't--" Macaque grabbed his arm, but he was suddenly gifted by a fist colliding with his face.
"Get out of my f#*ng way!!" He yelled angrily, With those last words, Sun Wukong blasted off in the sky, far away from the mountain.
"Wukong wait!" Macaque cried out, but he was already gone. Macaque yelled in frustration, pulling at his hair.
He didn't mean it. He swear he didn't mean it.
"Dad?" A soft voice called out, Macaque turned his head to see Bai-He, Rumble and Savage standing there at the door with worried and concerned faces. "What happened? Where's Bàba?"
"I....I messed up kids, I messed up big time.”
"ARE YOU CRAZY!?"
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!? WHY WOULD SAY THAT TO HIM!?"
At the Noodle Shop, Macaque explained to everyone what had happened, and needless to say, everyone was pissed at the monkey.
MK and Mei angrily scolded Macaque while he bowed his head down in shame. Sandy and Tang rubbed the shadow monkey's back in confort.
“I know, I know I messed up!” Macaque snapped, he bury his face onto the surface of the table he had his face lying on, in utter misery. “I didn’t mean it, I swear I didn’t.”
"Alright, I'll bite," Pigsy pointed out. "Where is the ol’ Monkeys pain in the necknow?"
“That’s just it, I don’t know.” He mumbled, his face still on the table. He sniffed, lifting himself up. “I don’t know where he is, I searched all of his favorite places, his old stomping grounds, I couldn’t even get a hold of his stench.” He listed then whimpered, now burying his face in his paws.
“I don’t know what I’m gonna do.”
“Calm down Mr. Maqwack, I’m sure he just needs some time to himself is all.” The river demon spoke in reassurance.
"He's at the Bull Palace."
Everyone turned to Mei with faces of disbelief.
"SAY WHAT?!"
"Yeah, look," She scrolled through her phone. "Red Son has been texting me all day. He said he just showed up to his place in tears." She showed them the messages with Red Son, including pictures of DBK and Iron Fan attempting to calm him down.
Everyone glanced at each other with worried expressions.
