MK P.O.V In the scroll

I couldn't believe my eyes, we're in the memory where the Journey to the West took place. I was over the top excited! I can't believe we're in one of the chapter of the journey! I was looking at the how different the buildings are from the ones I'm so used to seeing everyday, while I was looking around, Mei was on her phone but was upset because there's no signal

"Whoa! I'm in the past! Which means..." I went towards a vendor who looks just like the vendor in the present "One ancient souvenir, please" I placed some stuff in my pocket on the counter. Then the vendor started inspecting them

"These aren't chickens. And what are these? Demonic accessories!" The vendor shouted and guys with pointy spears appeared, and I started to felt nervous. Mei quickly grabbed me and we ran through the alleys, we finally stopped running after a minute. Then we heard footsteps behind us, we quickly turned around and saw Azure Lion in astral projection and Iris who's actually here

"You made it safely! Great. MK, Mei, welcome to the 7th Century Chang'an. I trust you've experienced astral projection before?" Azure Lion asked

"Yep" I said

"No. Is this what dying is like?" Mei asked sounding scared

"No, it's not" Iris said bluntly with her arms crossed

"A little astral projection never hurt anyone. Listen, I don't have much time. Remember how I've told you the scroll has a protective curse?" Azure Lion asked

"That it'll try to come find us and destroy us? Uh-huh, yeah. Wasn't really gonna forget that part" I said, but I still felt scared on what'll happen if the curse did find us and destroy us before we could find our friends and Monkey King 

"Good. Try not to draw too much attention to yourself. The curse will be drawn to any imperfections it detects within its stories. So, for starters, we need to do something about those" Azure Lion pointed at our clothes, and Mei started squealing with excitement

"New outfits?" Mei asked with excitement in her voice

"You betcha. I asked Iris to look for some clothes for you both and she's also gonna be traveling with you both" Azure Lion said

"Really?!" Both Mei and I said in unison

"Like I had a choice. Anyway, your clothes for this era is in that trash pile over there" Iris pointed at the nearby trash pile

"Finding your friends won't be easy, but-" Then Azure Lion sentence stopped when he notices me changing already and Mei cannonballs into the pile"Oh, come on! At least let us turn around first!" Azure Lion said as he and Iris quickly looked away

After changing, we started walking through town with Iris, who is now part of our group. I was looking at the instructions that Azure Lion gave me

"Alright, find our friends, defeat the curse and get back to good old-fashioned story of the week" I said as I put away the instructions "But where to start?"

"You're the big brain boy for this legends and stuff. Got any idea on what chapter the Journey to the West?" Mei asked

"Uh... I kinda skipped to the parts with Monkey King in them, but it's fine. Everything will be fine!" I said

"So much for a lead" Iris said

"Did you hear? Emperor's cousin... What's his name?" The guard was trying to remember the name

"Uh, Tang Sanzang" The second guard said as he remembered the name

"Yeah, that's the one. He's been sent to the West to find some ancient texts or something" The first guard said
