Summary: Macaque is fighting Mk and Wukong and things look like they was going him way but the rug is pulled out from under him and now his Master is none other then the Monkie Kid himself Mk.

MK, Monkey King, and Macaque had been fighting for what felt like hours. Considering MK and Monkey King weren’t at full strength yet were able to keep Macaque at bay spoke volumes.

Mk was draining though he could feel his muscles starting to cry in pain telling him to stop but he knew if he did monkey king would have to pick up the slake and end up being a big target like he had done before trust Macaque when they first met.

“Would you two give it up already? You know you can’t against me or her!” Macaque cried in Wukong’s face as they were locked in a fist stalemate.

“Please, like that old bone-head or you scares me. Even with my low power I could easily win this fight and you know it”

Macaque smirked but Mk could have sworn he saw fear in his eyes for just a moment. It faded as soon as he saw it but it was there.

“You’re always to difficult!”

Macaque exploded a burst of purple shadow energy knocking both Mk and Monkey king on to their backs, as the shadow monster that MK knew too well by this point came into view with Macaque in the middle of it.

“Really? That thing, again? Don’t you have more awesome powers then using the same trick twice?” Mk said to himself in frustration.

Macaque did hear him say that as the monster turned its head to MK.

“uh oh”

The giant fist came crashing down but Mk dodged it but he forgot to account for the wind as the wind force pushed him forward much farther then he anticipated knocking him off the edge of the cliff face.

“KID!” Wukong yelled as he attempts to dive down to rescue his successor but forgot about the monster as it easily grabbed him mid-jump.

“Look at you! The great Sun Wukong, Great Sage Equal to Heaven. How far you’ve fallen. Losing focus over a mortal human? Honestly, its pathetic. How I pity you. Not by much but hey at least I’ll be rewarded for this.” Macaque said being Wukong closer to his face.

Suddenly a light blue light appeared suddenly behind them. Macaque turned around suddenly to see an old man in a nice suit floating behind him. Macaque instantly knew who he was. He was the bone demons right hand.

“I got Wukong like she asked” he said sternly. There was no joking tone in his voice anymore. It almost sound like he was afraid but only to the untrained ear it would sound that way.

“Wonderful! My lady will be so pleased that she has the power of the Monkey king and the Six eared Macaque on her side.”

“What?” Macaque questioned as a magic circle appeared under him. He knew this circle. This wasn’t just a magic drain circle, no this would drain everything till there was nothing left. Not his body not his soul. It would turn them both into rare energy with no way to recover. This would be a faith worst then death. The worst part is that the victim can’t escape on their own.

“You old bastard! We had a deal!” Macaque yelled dropping Wukong as his shadow Monster disappeared.

“And you believed we’d honor it?”

Macaque just started wide eye at him. He had a point, why would they honor their deal. Their demons. Way more powerful than him. Macaque fell to his knees defeated. He could hear Wukong trying to punch his way out of the magic circle as it charged up.

“Macaque don’t just sit there! Help me!” Wukong yelled at him but Macaque didn’t move. Why would he? There was no point.

“Macaque!”

…

“Macaque?!”

…

“M-Man-“

Suddenly a burst of yellow lighting came though the circle yanking both Macaque and Wukong with tremendous force that caught both of them off guard. Just in time as both Macaque and Wukong saw the magic circle go off in a burst of light blue energy.

In that moment Macaque felt a magic spark and knew this wasn’t good as he felt in energy rap around his head.

Mk managed to grab a hanging branch before falling to his death had climbed up back to the fight only to witness what happened. All of it the betrayal and everything.

But what got Mk the most was the fact that Macaque just, gave up. He didn’t fight, didn’t yell. Nothing. In that moment Mk not only felt sorry for him but he saw himself. More accurately he saw his old self. The Mk before he started working for Pigsy, the Mk before he met Mei, the Mk when he still lived with his parents.

In that moment he felt his power kick in and it sparked into over drive and caused him to bolt with such speed he didn’t even know he was capable of.

They were miles away from that old guy and Mk finally turned back into a person again and not a bolt of energy fell onto the ground with both Monkey king and Macaque in his arms.

“That… was way to close. Monkey king lets not do that again.” Mk said lifting himself off the ground with his arm in front of him.

“Agreed. But hey you learned a knew power bud! Congrats.”

“Yeah! And it only took you almost dying for it to happen” Mk said dryly and Monkey king laughed nervously .

“Anyway, Macaque how are you- huh, Macaque what are you doing?”

Macaque was kneeling before Mk and bowing his head down. Almost like how Monkey king did with his master.

“Shut up Kid” Macaque breathed

“No way. Ohohohohoh hahaha” Monkey king started laughing uncontrollably

“This isn’t funny!” Macaque yelled raising his head up but not getting up from his position.

“You’re right, it’s not. It’s hilarious!”

“Mind filling me in on the joke here!” Mk asked slowly raising his hand as to ask a question in hopes the teacher would call on him. Macaque got up from the ground and Mk finally saw something on his head. It looked like the circlet that Monkey king once had but instead of gold it looked like Macaque’s shadow energy instead.

“You saved my life so… now… I…” Clearly whatever it was wasn’t something Macaque liked but Wukong decided to be the one to break the news instead and Monkey king jumped on Macaque’s back much to his annoyance.

“You’re his master kid.”

Mk had to do a double take on that one.

“wait, what? Master?”

“Yup, you see demons along time ago made this code thing where we could be super powerful and stuff but it came at a cost. If a mortal human ever saved our life we would be in their services. Or as well call this a ‘bond.’ So seeing as you save Macie’s life here you are his master now”

Mk looked like he was going to short circuit. He turned to Macaque in hopes that maybe Monkey King was just joking or something but when he refused to make eye contact with him he knew that it was real.
