In the dark of night, a dark shadow zoomed across the forest ground with such speed as if it was running away from something, the the shadow morphed and changed into the Six eared Macaque on his hands and knees panting and out of energy as his entire body was shaking. Tears streamed down his face with the mixture of blood making his right eye sting more than it already was, he slowly gets up and looks around at his new surroundings "how far away am I from the mountain?" Macaque said to himself gently wiping the tears from his face, he began walking down the forest his arms wrapped around himself for self comfort he looks around at the forest as it shines under the moon light, his ears twitching as he heard the sound of crickets chirping and an owl hooting, he looks up at the night sky seeing the stars and moon shining above him. He looks down and saw a dirt path leading somewhere and began to follow it




Macaque then came to a stop at a stone gate with big red wooden doors and was covered with vines all over the stone wall along with the doors, Macaque grabbed a handful of the vines and pulls them off the gate doors, when all of the vines were down he pushes the big doors open, when they were opened wide enough he looks inside and saw a court yard with overgrown grass, weeds, vines, dead trees, and at the center was a large traditional Chinese house with a black roof, and dark wood with red paint that was chipping. He slowly walks up to the house and opens the door and looks around, the inside was empty covered in dirt, dust, mold and cob webs, it didn't take a genius to tell that it was long abandoned. The demon slowly enters the home looking around and let out a scream as he felt the weight shift under him, he looks down and saw that his foot had gone through the old floor board "shit" he swore as he pulled his foot out of the new hole on the floor



He then began exploring the house avoiding any rotten floorboards, he then came across the master bedroom, it looked less dusty, had a few cob webs and the mold hasn't reached it yet, he enters the room sats down on the bed and sighs, he looks up and spotted a mirror in front of him showing a reflection of his face that had cuts, bruises and a poorly wrapped bandage over his right eye that had been bled through. He quickly looked away as he hugs himself his tail wrapping around his waist as he laid down on the bed and turns over his body shaking as he tries to hold back anymore tears but was failing as tears stains the bed under him

Macaque didn't know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up he saw that it was morning, he slowly gets up and began to rub the sleepiness from his eyes when he stops as he felt a sharp pain from his right eye "what the?" Macaque said in confusion but when he looks at the mirror his left eye widened as the memories from yesterday hit him like a stampede of Ox's, his breathing began to quicken and felt as if the room was closing in on him. He quickly turns into a shadow and zooms out of the house, he then turns back to normal and release the contents in his stomach on the ground, when he was done he took deep breaths to calm himself down 'Breath, calm down, breathe' Macaque thought as he tried to calm himself down soon he opened his eye and saw that the world wasn't spinning as he finally calmed down


"Now I need to know where I am" Macaque said and jumped up onto the roof and began to listen for anything nearby as well as scanning around the area, his six ears twitched as he heard a running river on his left as well as the distances sound of the ocean, then he turned to his right where he heard the sound of people talking and saw a trail of smoke there "there's a village nearby, it's not far" Macaque said to himself. Then he remembered something "I haven't seen Princess Iron Fan in a while, I have to see how she is doing" Macaque said and jumped off the roof, turned into a shadow and zoomed off to Thunderclap Mountain

(Heads up, Princess Iron Fan and Macaque see each other as brother and sister and Red son is one years old in mortal terms)

When the demon reaches the palace, he gently knocks on the doors and they opened immediately and he walked towards the throne room. As he reached the throne room he saw Princess Iron Fan sitting on her throne her head in her hands not knowing that the demon monkey was here "Jiějiě" Macaque said and Princess Iron Fan's head immediately shot up when she heard her little brothers voice, there she saw Macaque standing in front of her his clothes a little ripped, his fur messy, his face sporting purple bruises, and a blood stained bandage over his right eye " Xiăo dìdì" she said and she immediately rushed towards the monkey and pulled him into a tight hug "where have you been, I was so worried when I didn't hear anything from you, are you alright, what happened to you?!" Princess Iron Fan said pulling away to look at her little brother "I....I" Macaque tried to say but his voice died as fresh tears filled his eyes and he buried his face into his sisters chest letting out a sob. Princess Iron Fan wrapped her arms around him and gently patted his back in comfort "it's okay, it's okay Xiăo dìdì, I'm here, I'm here" Princess Iron Fan said in a soothing calm voice, comforting her younger brother
