Qinglong, Mei and Redson are off to find Guanyin while Wukong, Macaque and CJ are going to the Jade Emperor to warn him about the war threat by Jiu Feng. ( Btw if you don't know Jiu Feng is Fenghuang I just wanted to change his name )
They arrive at the Jade Emperor's place and as they were about to walk through the gates, a bunch of guards started to surround them. They had their backs against eachother trying to watch the guards as they slowly created a pathway for the jade emperor.
Jade emperor : And what are you doing here? Sun Wukong.
Wukong : JD! Can't I visit an old friend of mine?
Jade emperor: Spit. It. Out.
Wukong : I'm here to tell you about threat. A threat to attack the heavenly realm.
Jade emperor: Are you sure this isn't some kind of sick joke you're playing?
CJ : No. It's not. I swear to you.
Jade emperor: Well. If it is true. Then you won't have to worry. My army has fought countless of wars. We will surely win.
Wukong : But you don't know who you're fighting against.
Jade emperor: I suppose I don't. Mind telling me. Oh, The great sage equal to heaven?
Wukong : Fenghua- I mean. Jiu Feng...
A cold shiver and a concerned look pass by the Jade emperors face.
Jade emperor : The... The samadhis fire origins?
All three of them nod while looking at the deity with a stern look. The Jade emperor turns back to where he came from.
Jade emperor : Bring them to the meeting room and get me General Guiying!
His voice booms as he walks away. The guards guided them through the palace and into the large meeting room where a long table is and many seats were placed. They take a seat on the same side. While waiting they were served a glass of water and some snacks. Well they look like something you could get at a fancy restaurant not the bags of chips that people usually refer to as snacks.

Qinglong: GUANYIN!
Guanyin : Qinglong? Oh my.. what are you doing here?
Qinglong: Guanyin! We need your help... It's about Mel.
Guanyin: Hold on. Catch your breath and then you can tell me what has happened to your friend. Who are these two?
Redson : I- It's nice to meet you again. Lady Guanyin.
Guanyin: Ah, Ofcourse Redson. You haven't been up to anymore trouble have you?
Redson : No ma'am! I have not..
Mei : And I'm Mei! I believe you would know my ancestors.
Guanyin: Ah yes! You've grown up to be a very strong girl. I'm so glad there will be someone to keep the family traditions going.
Qinglong: Guanyin. Mel is gone and Jiu Feng is back. We believe that Mel is stuck somewhere...
Guanyin: The mind palace, I suppose. That is the only explanation for his disappearance but a way to get him out of there.. that is impossible. Unless he finds the exit himself there is no other way of getting him out of there.
Mei : So what you're saying is that Mel has to find the exit? How hard can it be?
Redson: Not hard. Just... You won't know which door it is that's all. I've read about the mind palace and only a few people have ever had it. They wrote about how it's just a place with unlimited necessities. You can basically live there forever.
Mei : How are we supposed to tell Mel that he should get out?
Redson: We'll just have to hope he does get out.
~~~
The Jade emperor paces back and forth while waiting for his general to arrive. The door opens and incomes the general.
General Guiyin : I have arrived your highness. Hello.. Sun Wukong.
Wukong : It's been a while Guiyin. How are you..
General Guiyin : ... Good. Now let's talk about our plans.
Guiyin places down a scroll and let's it roll on the table. It's a map of the whole place. They began planning.

CJ and Macaque walk into the room with drinks in hand
Guiyin: Good now that we have that settled, let's get down to busine- *noticed Cj and holds breath*
Guiyin: you..
Cj: huh? Me?
Guiyin: youre..*looks at swk* shes...
Swk: yes we know, its not that big of a deal
Guiyin: NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL?! ARE YOU INSANE?! ITS A HUGE DEAL!
Cj: im sorry...who are you?
Swk: Cj this is General Mu Guiying reincarnated. I've kept in touch with her every reincarnation. She will help us with the order of attack against Jiu Feng.
Cj: but there's got to be another way! Jiu Feng may have taken over Mel's body, but Mel is still in there!
Swk: I know, cj but we have no choice. We have to plan an order of attack before the Jade Emperor wipes him out for good
Guiyin: he is right, we don't know how long it will take fenghuan to reincarnate, but its better than him burning up the world.
Cj: there has to be another way! *rushes off*
Macaque: CJ! I- wait up!
Macaque chases after her. Leaving Wukong with the heavenly deities.
Guiyin: shouldn't you go check up on her?
Wukong : No. This is more important right now. Shall we continue?
Guiyin: ... Alright.
They continue to discuss their plans of attack. While CJ is running off out of the castle with Macaque behind her, clearly out of breath.
Macaque : Come on CJ. Let's go back inside.
CJ : No! He can't just kill off Mel like that! I mean- I know he can reincarnate but. It's going to be painful for Mel nonetheless... I just. There's got to be another solution.
Macaque sighs. Walking up to CJ to walk beside her.
Macaque: If only there was someone we can go to. Someone who's had the same experience.
CJ : Yeah... Wait.
CJ hits her face with her palms and groans into it.
CJ : Macaque! You're a genius! I'll be right back!
CJ runs off somewhere and Macaque just stays there. He decides to walk around, I mean. This is his first time here in the heavenly realm. Might as well make the most of it.
~~~
CJ is sitting under a tree near a pond. Breathing in and out, trying to calm her mind and focus. She shows up in the Liang estate, or some sort of form of it. She walks around trying to find Lady ChuHua. She spots her. She walks up to her.
CJ : Lady ChuHua?
Chuhua: Oh God! You scared me CJ.. what brings you here?
CJ : I need your help. Mel's alter ego Jiu Feng is taking over his body and well... He's too powerful to defeat. Maybe... You have something that can help us?
ChuHua : Hmm... Well there is my Halberd. But that is hidden away somewhere in the Liang estate. Gosh.. I wish I could recall where it was. I'm so sorry, I wasn't of much help to you.
CJ : No. no. It's what I needed. Thank you ChuHua.
CJ comes to give ChuHua a hug and she returns it. As CJ was about to get up ChuHua mentions that only the skilled have ever used it. It took her tons and tons of training to be worthy of wielding it. CJ assured her that she was worthy and leaves.
~~~
Mel is rummaging the whole place but he can't seem to find anything to get him out of here. Maybe it is in the library. He walks into the library and groans at the sight of the many books on the shelves.
Mel : This will take forever! There is no way I'm finding a way out of here before the war happens.
He slumps down on one of the couches and sighs in defeat. But then a blue scroll catches his attention. He picks it up and reads it.
Start. Stairs. Left. Left. Door 12.
He follows the directions and he gets to the door. He opens the door. Oh wow. More doors. Great.
He travels down the hall way of doors. They're all labeled but one catches his eye. ChanJuan. He opens it up and a bright light blinds him.
~~~
Macaque is chilling. Just taking a stroll. Until CJ comes and ruins his peace and quiet by shouting at him telling him to help her with something.
CJ : Can you please bring me back to the Liang estate!
Macaque : What!? Are you insane? You know Fenghuangs there. How are we supposed to get pass him?
CJ : I know a weapon that can possibly help us weaken Jiu Feng! But it's somewhere in the Liang estate and I need your help.
Macaque: I- are you sure this... Weapon can be of help to us?
CJ : It's a worth shot!
Macaque : ...
CJ: Come on Macaque! Please!
Macaque: Fine. I admire your determination woman. Now come on before Wukong finds us.
~~~
LBD : It's done.
Jiu Feng: Oh good. I was getting tired of waiting. Come now. Bring the potion and I'll bring us there.
LBD : Bring us where?
Jiu Feng : You'll see.
Jiu Feng picks up Lady Bone Demon bridal style and flies away to their destination.
Macaque and CJ pop out of a bush.
CJ : Now's out chance! Come on!
CJ and Macaque get up and rush towards the door. As they open the door they quickly search the whole house. Every nook and every cranny but still no weapon. Hours passed by and they can't find it anywhere.
Macaque : Are you sure it's here CJ? Because I don't think it is.
CJ : I'm positive it's here somewhere.
Before they could tear the place aart again any longer an eagle screech can be heard coming from outside.
Macaque : He's back! Hide!
Macaque pulls CJ under the bed with him. The door opens and footsteps follow. Jiu Feng is back but without Lady Bone Demon. What happened to her? CJ and Macaque are covering their mouths so they won't lose control of their breathing and give away their spot. Jiu Feng passes the room they're in. They wait a while.
CJ, whispers : I think he's gone.
Macaque : Yeah I think so too...
They crawl out of the bed and peek out the door. No one there. They tip toetowards the exit but the exit is so far. They had to be quiet until they reach the door.
One step
two steps
three steps
four
five
six
seven
eight
nine
creak.
So much for being sneaky. They turn around to see if Jiu Feng heard it. They hear no footsteps. They relax and continue their journey to the exit. The closer they were there the faster they got.
CJ : Macaque we're almost there.
They made it to the door they swing it open and see daylight again. They smile but that smile changed when Jiu Feng lands Infront of them stopping them from escaping.
Jiu Feng : Looks like I've caught myself some pesky mice
