MK P.O.V
"Yo, how's it going? It's me, Macaque or rather the Six-Eared Macaque is, you know, my full name" Macaque in the video game said and I was confused
"Uh... What am I looking right now?" I asked as the headset is on my head and I looked at the game cover that Macaque gave me. My body flickered again and the headset covered my eyes
"On your journey, you'll see that the choices you make that determine who you are" Video game Macaque said
"I know your latest discovery has thrown you for a loop. Between that and Azure and the Lady Bone Demon trying to get inside your head. You know what? Just play the game. That'll teach you everything you need to know for once. Besides, I put a lot of work into this. I was even gonna show the game to blossom first too, but changed of plans" Macaque said as the little monkey was on top of his head
"Oh, yeah, no, I can definitely see that" I said with a bit of sarcasm
Sakura P.O.V In the Celestial Realm
We fought against Azure Lion, Peng and Yellowtusk and the ink creatures from the scroll. Azure Lion sent pieces from the scroll towards the soldiers, but I managed to keep them safe thanks to shields. As my shields protected them, the soldiers ran away, leaving me, Iris, DBK, Princess Iron Fan, Red Son, Nezha and Huli
"Stand your ground! We must drive them back!" Nezha shouted as he attacks Azure Lion. Azure Lion pulled out his saber and blocked his attack "Azure, end this madness! You cannot hope to win!"
"You will delay our victory no longer" Azure Lion said as he sent him flying to a pillar
"Nezha!" I called out his name
"You! I'll make you pay for that!" Red Son shouted as he lunges at Azure Lion, who grabs him mid-air and pulled out a piece with an grin
"Red Son!" I threw my sword at the piece and it fell out of his hand "I won't let you imprison anyone!" I shouted as I ran towards them and kicked Azure Lion to the stomach, sending him flying
"Thank you cherry blossom" Red Son thanked me
"Sakura! Catch!" Iris threw back my sword, and continues fighting. While Iris was fighting, I heard someone whistle
"She's impressive" Huli said while looking at Iris
"Check her out later!" I said
Mei P.O.V Subodhi's Monastery
We were meditating with master Subodhi, but I felt anxious and worried about my best friends. I got up and started walking away
"And just where do you think you're going?" Master Subodhi asked as he turned to look at me
"Tsk! We can't just keep sitting here meditating or whatever. We gotta get up there and stop Azure!" I said
"You are not ready" Master Subodhi said, and out of anger, I took out my sword and pointed at him, making the guys shocked
"Mei, what are you doing?! Raising a blade to the Great Shifu Subodhi" Tang said
"What's your deal, guy?! We are so ready to go and end this!" I said
"Still, you have learned nothing" Master Subodhi said as he pushes my blade away "If you leave now, you will be walking into the embrace of your own demise" Then thunder roared into the sky, scaring Tang
"You're right, Shifu. Perhaps we aren't ready. We might be clumsy and kind of figuring things out as we go, but it's worked out for us so far" Tang said
"And with master's training, then surely we stand a chance. Personally, I've never felt more in sync with you guys than I do now right now" Sandy said as he was covered in stars and Subodhi gave him another star
"Even if we don't have MK or Monkey King, we have to try!" I said as I looked as I looked up in the sky
"Uh, normally we need some sort of deus ex machine, MK does that staff thing. How are we gonna get to the Celestial Realm?" Pigsy asked
"In style!" Sandy said as he used the stars to create our ride with his powers, and Sandy created an aircraft.
We changed out of the robes and back into our regular clothes that we somehow brought. We jumped into the aircraft, Sandy started it up but it was going really slow
"Uh, Sandy. Why'd you make the world's slowest mode of transportation?!" Pigsy yelled
"Ahem. If I may do the honor" Tang summoned a spell circle like the one that Red boy did, and we quickly traveled to the Celestial Realm to help
Sakura P.O.V
I was helping Nezha fight Peng, while Iris and Huli fought Azure Lion and DBK and his family fought Yellowtusk
"Come on! Let the demon child come out and play!" Peng said as he threw his spear towards Nezha along with his golden feathers. Nezha summoned his barrier to protect himself and I summoned my shield to protect myself from the feathers as well. Then Nezha was hit
"Nezha!" I was about to help him, but Peng landed on my back
"Not this time!" Peng said and saw everyone were put down by the same golden feathers
"Stand down, Lotus Prince. This post you are a slave to is not worth your life" Azure Lion
"Tsk! You're right. It's worth far more than that" Nezha said and suddenly up in the sky we saw the ritual circle that Red Son used once, and coming through was an aircraft
"Hello, Celestial Realm!" Mei's voice echoed through the speak
"Mei?" I tried looking up
"Sorry for rocking up late to the party! We were just nailing our training montage, boi!" Mei said as she jumps off
"What sort of fool would-!" Azure Lion finish his sentence as Mei squashes his face with her foot
"This sort of fool!" Mei shouted as she summons her sword to attack Azure Lion, but Yellowtusk blocked her way
Then I felt Peng being lifted off of me and saw Uncle Sandy threw Peng away from me and helped me up
"Are you alright?" Uncle Sandy asked
"Yeah. I am now that you guys are here" I said with a smile, and saw Uncle Tang trying to pull out the golden feather out from Nezha
Leave me. Help your friends and niece. We must force Azure back" Nezha said
"I'm sure they'll be fine" Uncle Tang said and I sliced the golden feathers off of everyone, and Mei and my uncles were thrown back
"I spared you once, mortals. But I warned you not to rebel. You did not heed that warning" Azure Lion said as pieces of the scroll headed towards us and I managed to summon my shield once again to protect everyone
Then I slumped down from exhaustion
"Sakura!" Iris ran towards me including Red Son
"Are you alright, cherry blossom?" Red Son asked
"I'll be fine... I just used too much of my power that's all" I said as I tried to catch my breath
"You should not have come here! I must stop them from reaching the Jade Emperor" Nezha said as he used his spear to help him stand and Huli is also helping him
"But what if you can't?" Uncle Pigsy asked
"Uncle Pigsy, I don't think that's an option" I said as I lifted myself up and got into my fighting stance
"Alright, it's game time!" Mei said
MK P.O.V
I was still playing the game that Macaque brought me, and I still have no idea on what this was supposed to teach me
"Oh no! Some disgusting, horrible demon is attempting to steal this poor maiden. Whatcha gonna do about it?" Video gam Macaque asked and showed the options
"Well, I'm gonna rescue the fair maiden, obviously" I selected that option and defeated the demon, then a family of demons appeared but they were crying
"My demon wife is dead! How will I ever provide for my starving family now?" Then the demon family died and I got a game over again
"Argh! Again?! Remind me how this game is supposed to convince me that I'm not destined to turn into an evil demon monkey thing again? Cause every option I pick takes me to this same screen" I said as the TV turned off
"Hey, you're finally getting it. No matter what options it's giving you, you're always gonna end up in the same spot" Macaque said
"Oh, thanks, Macaque. Congrats. You went to more effort than usual to make me feel like dirty dirt dirt. Good job. Round of applause" I said as I went outside while clapping and sat down on the porch. Then Macaque appeared next to me while peeling a banana
"Alright, misery kid. You were supposed to realize by now that the choices the games' giving you, aren't the only choices you got. Life isn't some pre-written thing like a video game or you have to do what the tutorial says" Macaque said as he ate the banana
"Okay, well, kind of weird, convoluted way to make a point, don't you think?" I asked
"Whatever. Point is, it's time to start making your own choices" Macaque threw away the banana peel next to a boulder with a worn out drawing "Something I wish I'd learned a lot sooner than I did. You don't want to fight Azure because people might get hurt. You don't want to not fight him because people might get hurt. So do something else" Macaque said and I looked up in the sky and saw the golden light shining through the sky "Only you get to decide who you are, kiddo
No One P.O.V - Celestial Realm
Azure Lion sent an attack towards Nezha and he dodged it, and slid towards the others who looked tired
"Now it might be a good time to ask the Jade Emperor to tag in" Tang said out of breath
"He cannot" Nezha said
"Cannot or will not?" Azure Lion asked as he stomped forward "The only thing he cares for is himself! This lavish palace is proof enough of that! He has the power to do so much good in the world, but instead, he looks down on the weak, starving, and the poor souls who fight these wars for him. It's despicable!"
"Whether you like it or not, the Jade Emperor has a greater role in this world than you can comprehend" Nezha said as he stood up
"I guess I will find out for myself" Azure Lion lifted up his saber and brought it down, but his saber was knocked out from his hands, we looked up and saw something zooming and hitting Azure Lion with high speed. Then we saw a golden light in the sky, standing on a nimbus cloud was none other MK
"Noodle boy?!"
"Little thief?!
"It's MK!"
"Oh, that's my boy!"
Then MK charges forward towards Azure Lion, but Azure Lion let out a powerful roar, and MK's nimbus cloud disappeared and landed where his friends are, and his body started flickering once again
"I cannot let anyone stand in my way, MK. Even you" Azure Lion said
"I'm not here to fight you, Azure, don't do this!" MK said and Azure Lion let out a sigh
"Then you've come to throw your life away" Azure Lion said as he picked up his saber and looked ready to attack
"Mr. Tang, now!" MK said and Tang nodded
"Wait, no!"
Then Tang summoned a ritual circle once again and teleported everyone out of the Celestial Realm. The attack that Azure Lion sent broke down the doors of the Jade Emperor's palace, and Azure Lion and the Brotherhood crossed through
"Your arrival is opportune, Azure. Were my time not already at its end, I doubt you would have stood a chance of overthrowing me. I hope this is not a disappointment" The Jade Emperor said
"I do not care by which means you meet your demise, old man. Only that the new Jade Emperor is more worthy of the title!" Azure Lion said
"And I suppose you believe that person is you? How is it you come to stand before me today as you? Was there a point where you questioned it? Or were you oblivious with your own delusions to realize you are a mere piece in someone else's game" The Jade Emperor said as he stood up from his throne "You may try, Azure. The throne will be yours. However, if you think I'll gift it freely, you are mistaken. Since I already have chosen my next heir, so many centuries ago" Then the Jade Emperor pulled his sword and pointed at Azure Lion, and the fight between them has begun
Flower Fruit Mountain
Tang teleported everyone to Flower Fruit Mountain, everyone landed on their feet. Then Sakura and the gang hugged MK. Macaque smiled at the sight
"We missed you, son" Pigsy said as tears formed in his eyes, and MK smiled
"You fools! We should have stood and fought to the end!" Nezha said as Huli helped him stand up
"We didn't stand a chance against them. If we'd stayed, it wouldn't have made a difference" MK said
"So you're just gonna stand aside and let Azure become the new Jade Emperor?!" Nezha shouted
"Nezha, calm down. We need to patch up your wounds" Sakura said "And there's only one person who stood against the Jade Emperor. Uncle Sandy, may I?" Sakura stuck out her hand and Sandy gave her the name plate of Sun Wukong, still intact
"*Gasp* Monkey King" Nezha said
"Monkey King's name plate! It's still okay!" MK said "But how?"
"I used my shields to protect it before the strike sliced it. Pretty smart, right?" Sakura said
"Your the smartest ever!" MK exclaimed and kissed her in front of everyone. Everyone let out a loud gasp while Mei took a picture
"Noodle boy... You'll pay for kissing my fiancé!" Red Son shouted as he started chasing MK with fire in his hands along with DBK, Pigsy and Tang who were also mad
"Oh my..." Iris was surprised
While MK was being chased, MK, Sakura, Nezha, Macaque, DBK, Princess Iron Fan and Red Son's eyes changed into their respective colors for a moment and the fabric of the skies towards the Celestial Realm was ripped opened
In the Jade Emperor's palace
After the defeat of the Jade Emperor, Azure Lion inherited the power
"My emperor?"
"Azure?"
"It's done. Now the work can begin" Azure Lion said as his eyes glowed for moment
