The King, The Prince, and The Warrior

Chapter 7

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back in the Kingdom of Peace, Macaque was in his room drawing a pink lotus flower when he heard the sound of trumpets "huh?" The prince said then his door opened to reveal Chen "Dàgē, you have to come see this, hurry!" Chen said grabbing Macaques arm and dragging him towards the balcony where his parent and other siblings are watching as what looked like a paraded marches down the street

"Make way King Wukong!"

"Say hey, it's King Wukong!"

Everyone in the village stopped and stared at the many people holding up banners, throwing flowers, and confetti as men juggled swords in the air while some women danced

"Hey! Clear the way in the old Bazaar

Hey you, let us through it's a brand-new star

Oh, come be the first on your block to meet his eye"

Everyone stared up as an elephant walked down the road carrying a howdah on it's back that was covered in very large banana fans

"Make way, here he comes

Ring bells, bang the drums

You're gonna love this guy

King Wukong, fabulous he, The Monkey King!"

The fans were removed to reveal Sun Wukong sitting legs crossed wearing a yellow long puffy sleeve hanfu shirt with black lapels, red pants, brown boots, tiger skin around his waist tied with a small blue ribbon, and a yellow baggy hat with a white tie on the front, smiling his fangs glistening

"Show some respect, boy, genuflect, down on one knee"

Macaque eyes widened a bit as he saw his friend here coming towards the palace, not noticing that Kai came up after hearing the noise and glares at the copper simian in annoyance

"Now, try your best to stay calm

Brush up your Sunday Hanfu"

"Then come and meet his spectacular coterie!"

"King Wukong, mighty is he, The Monkey King

Strong as ten regular men, definitely"

"He's faced the terrible Huns!

A hundred bad guys with swords!

"Who sent those goons to their lords? Why, King Wukong!"

Everyone stared up in awe at the copper simian who waves at them

"Fellas, he's got"

(He's got 75 golden camels)

"Uh-huh, now the ladies, what he got?"

(Purple peacocks, he's got 53)

"Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh"

"When it comes to exotic-type mammals"

"Everybody help me out!

Has he got a zoo? I'm telling you

It's a world-class menagerie!"

"King Wukong, handsome is he, The Monkey King!"

Wukong noticed Macaque and waves up at him who slowly waves back

"That physique! How can I speak?

Weak at my knees! You yummy boy"

"Well get on out in that square,

Adjust your veil and prepare"

Wukong then blows Macaque a kiss and the tanned simian face turned bright red while Kai was seething behind the prince

" To gawk and grovel and stare at King Wukong!"

"He's got 95 white Persian monkeys

(He's got the monkeys, a bunch of monkeys)

"And to view them he charges no fee

(He's generous, so generous)

"He's got ten thousand servants and flunkies"

(Proud to work for him)

Ling and Mingli looked at each other before running towards the large doors as the parade was coming closer to the doors

"They bow to his whim, love serving him

They're just lousy with loyalty to Wukong

King Wukong..."

the twins grabbed onto the door handles and slowly opened them but Kai quickly caught up with them and slams the doors closed with his hand. But then the doors shook and they were forced opened by the elephant as the rest of the performers entered the throne room

"King Wukong! amorous he, The Monkey King!"

"Heard your princy was a sight, lovely to see"

Kai pushed the door off of him as he was squished to the wall by the door

"And that, good people, is why

He got dolled up and dropped by"

"With 60 elephants, llamas galore (for real?)

With his bears and lions, a brass band and more (what?)

With his 40 fakirs, his cooks, his bakers

His birds that warble on key!"

"Make way....

for King Wukong!!"

Wukong summoned his cloud under him and flies off the elephant as the Emperor, Empress, and their children watched in awe while Kai was pushing and shoving the performers, and animals out of the palace, Wukong does a loopty loop before coming to a stop in front of the Emperor and Empress with a bow
