The Revenge Of The Spider Queen

A/n: Hi there! This chapter is much shorter because I cannot work on it as much due to work and family matters. I hope you can still enjoy it.

Chapter Eight 1/2

It was only a few days after the attack of Demon Bull King, and now it was the lunar New Year. A time to celebrate by spending time with family and friends, but you couldn't. Not with everything on your mind. Your fingers fidget with your necklace as you drown out the noises of the crowds.

~After DBK attack~

After the attack of the Demon Bull King and the bull clones, the city was a chaotic mess. During this time, the gang helps the citizens with the disaster mess. As for you, you had gone to check in on Bai He and her family. You were worried that something terrible happened to them.

Before you left to see them, you went back home. When you enter the boutique, you realize something missing. Chief's suit wasn't on the mannequin. You were worried and wondering if you had miss placed it, but found a bright blue note. You raised an eyebrow as you read it.

'My dear, (Y/n),

I'm glad to see that my clothes have been tailored, to fit me perfectly. Unfortunately, I had to leave before thanking you properly due to urgent matters that needed my attention. However, I promise to express my gratitude when I see you again.

Sincerely your Chief'

You smiled as your face had a pink glow on your cheek. You felt happy to read he liked the suit, but something was off. You couldn't understand why it felt like you were reading a different person's penmanship. You assume it was simply due to lack of sleep and ignore the idea.

Once you hit the road, you hoped Bai He and her family had escaped the bull clone invasions and were far away from the city. Luckily, you discovered that they had just returned home.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Upon arriving at Bai He's house, you were greeted by her distressed parents rushing towards you. After you got out of the car, you spoke with them and inquired about the situation. Their tear-filled explanation painted a bleak picture.

Bai He had gone missing.

Her parents explained how she went after the cat after it escaped the house before DBK's attack, but she never returned home. They checked with the police, but she wasn't there. They were hoping that she was with you, but they noticed that you arrived there alone. As you listened, you became stunned, and your gut twisted with fear about what might have happened to her.

A report was made about a missing child, but the police were occupied with handling multiple emergencies resulting from the attack. The only thing you and your group could do was search for the child. You put up missing posters at your boutique and Pigsy's noodles. You went to her favorite but nothing. As time went by without any leads, it became apparent that you were struggling. Your friends noticed that you were not getting enough sleep and had poor eating habits. To ease your mind, even momentarily, Sandy and Mei suggested taking you to the festival.

~Present~

You sighed in frustration as you sat in Pigsy's food van as the festival became more lively with each passing minute. You were too deep in thought to notice the bowl of noodles in front of you. It wasn't until Pigsy snapped you out of it, "Kid, your noodles are going to go soggy if you keep staring at them." He said as he started to make another bowl. "Oh yeah... Sorry, Pigsy." You said as you ate.

"I understand you are not feeling well, but if you don't take care of yourself, you can't give your best to help her." The demon pig said as you finished the bowl of noodles, staring down at the leftover broth, seeing your hazy reflection. "You're right." you said, "I need to get better before I find more problems or create them." You say, with a sigh, as Pigsy served another patron.

Your attention turned to the struggle of the dragon horse girl. Looking up to see Mei struggling to fold the dumplings, you could have sworn you heard her say something about how difficult it is without fingers. You chuckled as you offered to help. Mei smiled and gave you a few to fold.

Tang ate his noodles as he saw his husband becoming more stressed. "Mei, (Y/n). Is it me, or does Pigsy seem more stressed than normal?" He said to you. Making all three see the demon pig forcing a smile and sweating. You can feel the tension coming off of him."Yeah, isn't Mk suppose to be working?" You asked them, but as you said, Mk's name caused Pigsy to snap.

"YES! (Y/N), HE IS! " He yelled at the three of you, as he continued, "WHERE IS THAT PUNK! CAUSE HE'S SURE AIN'T HERE!" You and Tang held your breath cause you didn't know where Mk was until Mei spoke up. "He's training with the Monkey King!" She casually said to Pigsy. " He said, 'NEW YEAR, NEW MK! I'm going to take my training to a whole new level!'" She finished, posing like Mk and using a mop on the counter. You laughed as a frustrated Pigsy seized the mop from Mei and snapped it in half. "Gimme that!"

"NeW yEaR nEw Mk! Keep going like this, he'll be newly unemployed!" Pigsy said as he created another bowl. "I mean it! If mk don't get here soon, I'm gonna," Before he could finished, he was interrupted by a looming shadow. He screamed, causing you to turn towards the figure. You saw a very festive Sandy, his arms filled with treats, toys, red envelopes, and candy. "Good cheer and Happy New Year!" Sandy grinned as he dropped his haul on the counter and some on Pigsy. "Look at all these delicious little goodies! I got enough to share." He proudly said.

Tang, You, and Mei were impressed, "Oooh! Thanks, Sandy." Mei thanked the blue man. You picked up an orange from the pile and started to peel it. "Yeah, Thank you, Sandy." you smiled at him.

"No problem! So um. Where's Mk?" Sandy said as he scratched his head. Pigsy burst out of the treats and toy he was under. He shouted, "WOULD YOU GUYS, PLEASE, SCREW AROUND SOMEWHERE ELSE!" Making you flinch and drop the half-peeled orange. "If you ain't going to help, go bothered somewhere else!"

"Aw... My orange." You playful pouted, seeing it go down the drain. Mei and Sandy laughed while Tang ate more noodles, and you peeled another orange. Pigsy moves the treats and toy from the counter, "At least clear the counter!" He said.

Sandy sat down next to you while you ate your orange. "You okay? You seem to be doing better." He asked, as you nod your head and gave him a piece of your orange. " I am doing a little better now that I'm here with you guys." You sigh with a soft smile. Sandy pats your back as he accepts your offer. "That's good to hear. Don't worry, we'll find her," he reassured you.

"Thanks, guys." You smiled. Time flies by as you guys made your way to the lunar new year parade. Sandy carries Tang and Mei to get an amazing view of the floats. They were incredible as you watch the dancers, the dragons, and the fireworks. All of you were in awe as you saw it pass by. "Man, Mk is surely missing this!" Mei said as you agreed. "Yeah, look at all these cool floats!" You chirped with joy.

"There's the dragon one, and there's the spider one," Sandy said, confusing the gang. "What? There's no spider in the zodiac. It's probably just an eight-legged roster-" Tang said as he turned to the floats. "An eight-legged roster, Tang? I don't think they would mess up that bad-" you responded, but you saw the float.

It was a spider float, a machine-like spider with bright purple and green colors. Everyone was shocked and confused about the strange float, the whole parade stopped in its track. "What's happening?" You questioned as you felt your gut turn.

Just the Beginning 

Chapter 7

A/n: Happy New Year and very late Christmas! I hope this year has been kind to you and that next year will bring more wonderful surprises. This will be my last fiction post of this year, so i made it longer. I hope you enjoy it! (Sorry for the spelling and grammar errors. I think my dyslexia is getting worse.)

You looked down at the box in front of you. You knew whom it was from, feeling the butterflies in your stomach. You picked it up, taking it back inside, but not before skimming outside to see if Chief was out there. It felt futile as there was nothing but the silence of the night. You sighed, feeling defeated by the loneliness and concern about him.

You walked into the kitchen quietly and sat close to the counter, placing the box and envelope on it. You felt nervous about what it could contain inside. You held your breath for a moment before deciding to open it.

"My dear lady,

I wanted to apologize for our last date. I hope you enjoy this small gift to make it up, for the distress I caused you at the museum. When I saw it, I knew it had to be with you. I had to depart for the moment but rest sure I'll be fine and return as soon as possible.

~Sincerely, your Chief."

You felt your cheek becoming pink, but your mind became curious about what he was thinking after that day. As you carefully open the box, a creek from behind you. Closing the box and hiding the letter, you turned around to find Moe walking toward you. He purred on your leg as you gave a small sigh of relief. "Did I wake you up? I'm sorry." You said as you picked him up, letting him snuggle in your arms.

"Not only him." A voice came from the darkroom as you turned to see Pigsy. "Oh! I'm sorry, I couldn't sleep." You meekly spoke as Pigsy stared you down. Those minutes felt like hours as you sat at the counter and he was cooking something, and the air felt tense with doubt. You stared down at Moe in your arms till a bowl of noodles was in front of you. Confused, you looked up to see Pigsy, who seemed apologetic.

"I haven't been the best guest since this chaos started." He looked down at the floor before looking up at you. You gave a weak chuckle as you spoke, " Well, I wouldn't put it past you. Everything seems to be falling apart, so it's good to be careful around others." Pigsy sighed, "but it was rude of me to be hostile with you. You appear to be great friends with Sandy, and he knows how to bring the best out in someone." He said, and you nodded in agreement.

"I'm sorry for my rude behavior," Pigsy said as he hung his head in remorse. "It's quite alright. I should be thanking you for the amazing foods you made." You smiled as he lifted his head. Pigsy gave a soft grin as you ate. It was a while before you both finished and talked more. Pigsy soon left you alone to go back to sleep.

"Well, Moe, I guess I made a new friend." You talked to the yawning cat. "And it seems to be you getting sleepy too. Come on, let's go." You carried the blue feline and placed him on a soft pillow. After that, you remember the gifted Chief gave you. You went to find the box and envelope staring at it for a bit. "Better now than never." You whisper to yourself as you open the small box.

Inside the box was a teardrop pendant, and the gem was white with blue undertones, held by a silver chain. You were surprised by how it looked. It was so simple, yet it had elegance to it. "What am I going to do with the man?" You chuckled to yourself before putting it on. "Thank you, Chief. I hope you are safe where ever you are…" You said as you wanted to bed, looking outside the window. As you shut your eyes, you felt like someone was at the window before going to sleep, creating the pendant gave a faint glow of neon blue.

~timeskip because of the chaos~

It had been a few days after DBK and his bull clones had taken over the city. You attempted to search for Bai He and her family but weren't able to find them. You tried thinking optimistically, thinking they found shelter someplace safe. Feeling that two of the people you cared for the most could be in danger, you and the gang had taken up the duty to take out as many bull clones as possible, not only for them but for the citizens as well.

Since bull clones target you more than the others, Sandy taught you how to defend yourself, but most time Tang and you stayed in the truck and slammed into them. During the calm moments, you and Tang talked about JTTW and making sense of Mk being the Monkey King's successor.

Other times you cooked with Pigsy and had fun with Mei and Sandy. 'Mk' was unfazed by most things happening, but you included him either way. As well as finishing Chief's suit, having no way to contact him, you kept it safe till you met him again.

Today you guys head back to the noodles shop after getting some supplies. While driving closer, you noticed another Mk driving up to the shop. Unaware of the bull clones gathering closer as he steps out of the tuk-tuk. "Pigsy, step on it!" You wasted little time to say as Pigsy slammed the brakes and collided with the pile of bull clones that were almost bombarding Mk. Everyone came out of the truck and posed in front of mk. He was in awe as he saw the new outfits you crafted for the gang.

"Guys! Ohoh! You guys look so awesome!" He smiled as he got up from the ground, Mei jumping in front of him. You felt proud as Mei had to give him the news of DBK. "Yeah, so um. Some stuff happened while you were away. Got kinda intense." Mei said as she rubbed her head. You could see mk looked a bit confused as he spoke, "But I left you with one of my boys?"

Remembering the Mk inside the food truck, you turned your head towards him while tang gave a sarcastic remark about him. "Oh, he's been super useful." The other Mk spoke in a huff, "I don't know what to tell you, guy."

As he finished his sentence, his body glowed into a golden cloud before exploding into a bunch of hair. ' I guess that's what they meant when they say that's not mk…' you thought, as you Tang and Pigsy became covered in hair. You quickly swipe it off as you hear Mk asking Mei what happened during his time away.

"Well, after you left-" Mei's sentence was interrupted by a cough from tang before he spoke up. "If you'll allow me?" He gave a grin as Mei gave a groan of annoyance but allowed him to continue. Tang continues in a more narrative tone.

"Well, after you left, the bull clones attacked, but they were different. More powerful than before, we believe it all ties back to the demon bull king himself. Mk, he's conquered everything." Hearing this left Mk in shock about the situation. "Where is he? Where's DBK?" Mk asks, giving a serious look. Sandy spoke up as everyone turned towards him and the mountain. "We're not sure, but there's pretty scary noises coming from the mountain." You can see Sandy holding Moe tight.

"We better get going before he finds out Mk is here." You said as you walked towards the truck. Mk was surprised to see you, but he agreed, "yeah, let's ruin DBK parade again!" Everybody was inside as Pigsy slammed on the gas and sped to the mountains, lightning striking down close.

~Meanwhile, in DBK throne room~

In the deep underground, Deamon Bull King watches as his rain over megalopolis. He gave a roaring laugh at how the people coward in fear of the bull clones. DBK switches between the screens of bull clones seeing how empty the street of the city becomes. " Look at how they coward and run! With this power, not even the great sage could not stop me!" DBK heavily breathe, as he felt the power of the canister flowing in him. Princess Iron Fan was behind her husband, disliking his behavior, even after taking over the city.

Something wasn't right.

"Yes, father! We have finally taken our right full place as the rulers of the city!" Redson said as he moved beside her and spoke with pride. He was about laugh, but a warning appeared, catching the attention of everyone. DBK turned to the screen he saw Pigsy food truck heading their way. The computer scanned the beings in the moving vehicles, detecting six screen pops up. It showed Mk, Mei, (Y/n), Tang, Pigsy, and Sandy.

DBK heard the whisper of Lady bone demon in his mind as he saw the image of Mk. "MONKEY KING! COME TO TAKE ME? BIND ME?" He yelled, the image of Mk turned Sun Wukong, "I WILL NOT LET THAT SIMIAN ABOMINATION TRIUMPH AGAIN!" As he roared, PIF became uneasy about how the power was taking over him. It was only seconded till he noticed your image. The present you shifted to your past life.

"If it isn't that persistent pest? I'll be sure that she gets the message this time." He snarled, snapping his finger as bull clones rushed around him. "Be sure she is nothing but dust." Under his voice, he muttered, "I will not, be losing an instrument of my destiny even if he is slipping away from my control."

~ Back to You~

As Pigsy drove on, you realized it was hard to move. What hasn't occurred to anyone was the space in the truck. Everyone was squishing into each other you were under Sandy's arm and the door. "Oh, Mk! This is (y/n)! A friend of mine!" Sandy said as he did his best to make room. "Oh! I remember you!" He said, giving a grin. "Nice to properly meet you. I think, given the situation, it could be better." You nodded in agreement. "Yeah, but I guess now then never." You smiled.

"Wait, how did you get involved?" Mk asked curiously, you chuckled nervously, looking away, "A bit of a long story, but I was with Sandy when this started." It wasn't long before you guys reached DBK lair entrance. Lighting was struck on the symbol of the bull king, frightening Moe and causing him to crawl toward you. You held him close to make sure his alright.

Sandy smiled proudly and said, "Alright! what's the plan?" He looked at Mk. Who realized he didn't have a plan. "Uh… I don't know. I was just gonna to wing it?" He said, unsure. You, Mei, and Sandy agreed. "Sounds great! Let's go!" Sandy said as Mei pumped her hand in the air, and you grinned. Mk shook his head, "What! No, I didn't mean you guys too!" He expressed worried about their safety. Tang pushed up his glasses before speaking, "You thought you were going without us?"

Pigsy chuckled, "Mk, we get it. You're the monkey kid. It's your job to fight the bad guys." Sandy chimed in, "But we're your team, little man! And it's our job to get you there!" Mei smiled as she continued Sandy's sentience, "No matter what!" The whole gang had a big grin as they reassured Mk and their decision to fight by his side. Mk was touched, having tears almost spilling out as he turned to everyone and smiled. Before you knew it, the truck was already driving and flying toward the DBK lair.

As Pigsy landed, he swerved around before finding balance. Everyone was swishing around, but another truck appeared behind you and bumped into you guys. Tang flew out of his seat and on to window next to Pigsy as he tried to drive. As tang looked up, he could see an enormous hole in the ground, "look there! DBK throne room! It's gotta be-be down there!" He stammered as he could see a vehicle full of bull clones closing in on the truck. They collide with it a couple more times before using full force, causing it to explode. You did your best to protect yourself and Moe as rolling out of the truck. You, Tang, and Pigsy stayed behind as Sandy carried Mei and MK to the entrance.

"Go get him, Monkey Kid!!" You yelled with a grin as you stood up and regained balance. He turned back to see you, grinning before he almost fell off Sandy's shoulder. Mk was caught, by Sandy, as they ran towards the pit. You saw Sandy crush another one of the tank-like vehicles that charged at them. You placed Moe on your shoulder as you went to help Tang and Pigsy get up. "Okay, Now what?" Tang asked you.

"Well, crushing them first of all!" You said as you saw bull clones coming towards you. You handed Moe to Tang as you stood side by side with Pigsy. "Ready, kid?" He asked, and you nodded. "As I'll ever be." On cue, a swarm of bull clones came charging at you guys. One took a swing at you, causing you to dodge it and grab its arm. You took a stance as you threw it into another, who was aiming at Tang and Moe. Pigsy took out a line of sausages, using them as nun-chucks, and took out a few.

'Vermin! Can't let him go!' You turn to see one of the bull clones hissing at you. It was faint whispering, but as the bull clones got closer, it became one voice. You were surprised and shook your head as you kept focus as you kicked one to the ground. You looked up to see tang become pale but give a thumbs up. You weren't focusing on the next bull clone.

'I don't plan on losing my most faithful servant to some lowly mortal!' It aimed at you, getting a clean shot to your back as you weren't concentrating. 'Like you!' Your breath was knocked out of you as you tried to inhale. "(Y/n)!" Pigsy and Tang yelled as they saw you fall to the ground.

'You may have done better, but you're still weak! Your fate hasn't changed ' As bull clones stood over you before Pigsy punched them away. Tang rushes over as you try to regain your breath. You could hear laughter coming from the clones as they closed in on you four.

"You can do this, (Y/n)!" You heard a voice yelling as you opened your eyes and saw it was from Pigsy. "You have us now!" Tang raised his voice as he helped you sit up. "We're behind you, (Y/n)! No matter what!" another voice come out of nowhere. You, Tang, and Pigsy became confused for a moment, until you saw Sandy coming from the sky as he smashed into the bull clones. "Thanks, guys." You said as you felt your lips form into a smile as you got up.

"Guys, get on!" He said as he put you three on his back. Before he threw a punch, an explosion transpired, and bright blue lightning stuck, blinding you for a moment. You blinked a few times before you opened your eyes to see a spirit-like essence depart the bull clones' bodies. You heard the whispers, all chanting the same word.

'Freedom'

The nowempty clones soon collapse to the ground. Tang followed, soon after, who was drained. You let go carefully and took a sigh of relief for a moment. "Is it over?" you asked the group. "Yeah, it is!" Mei's voice was heard, from inside a huge monkey mech coming from the ground with Mk.

After a while, you all sat on the shoulder of the monkey mech, eating a bowl of noodles. "Welp, ya did it, kid," Pigsy said before taking another bit of noodles. Sandy was grinning as he held Moe in his hand, "You beat DBK again!" You saw Mk seeming down and doubtful of what happened with DBK. "I'm not sure I did. Whatever was powering him up. It made him different." He said. in seeing this, Mei tried cheering him up.

"But we won~! right?" Tang chimed in after her. "I'm sure it's fine." He soon put his chopstick in Pigsy's bowl, trying to take some noodles. " You were done with this?" Pigsy, not having it, took his bowl away from tang. "Hey, get your mitts off my bowl tang!"

"At least over now, right." You said as they agreed. As you finished eating, a feeling lingered as you all went home. You recalled the blue spirit leaving the bull clones.

'It is over, right?'

We'll Meet Again, Some Sunny Day

A/n: Y/n doesn't remember the white void. This to me longer because i had to find a new writing system. My old one was failing me and i wasn't getting shit done like before. There will be Headcanons later this weekend. Thank you all for your patience!

You and Sandy turn your heads to the city, now looking like ruins. Bull-like figures appear from the shipping crates. They crept closer to the ship, and the sounds of metal clashing against each other grew. You can see the form of these robotics bull clear as day, with blue screens for eyes and whispers emitted from them.

They soon began to pick up speed and jumped on board, crashing into the floor and creating craters. They turned towards you two but stared only at you for a moment before attacking. You knew the pepper spray you had wasn't going to work.

Two bull bots aimed at you, making you fall backward, letting them plunge into the floorboard. "Careful (Y/n)!" You heard Sandy shout as he threw three robots overboard. But they kept crawling back on the boat.

"What are those things?!" You shouted as you tried to regain your balance before feeling your body lifted up and over Sandy's shoulder. Moe jumped into your arms as all three of you guys ran. "SANDY!" You yelled as more chased after you guys.

"Sorry (Y/n), we gotta get to safety." He shouted as he was about to go to an elevator, but the junks of metal, were blocking it. He decided to run to a nearby speedboat. Somehow this blue man got the speedboat on land and breezed past the bulls.

It happened fast before you realized you were on the speedboat, as the blue cat in your arm patted your face to get your attention. It was a while till you reached your destination.

Pigsy noodle.

As Sandy got there, he landed on more bull robots. You three got out and met with the demon pig. He was with two others trying to figure out what was happening. You stepped off and caught their attention. You saw it was the girl with the dragon jacket and a man with glasses.

" Guys, this is my friend (Y/n). She was with me when the bull clones started to attack."Sandy explained to the gang before they turned to you. "Sorry again, (Y/n), for throwing you over my shoulder." You shook your head in response to his apology. "It's fine, Sandy. I think it was the best idea. my legs felt like jelly." You stated as Sandy introduced you to the others.

"(Y/n), this is Pigsy, Mei, and Tang!" He beamed as you waved at them. Pigsy sighed, "Hey there, sorry, but this isn't the time for introductions. Now is the time to prepare and find out what is happening." He was correct.

"It seems like DBK is trying again to conquer the city again. It's actually working this time." Mei said as she looked through her social media and newsletter. "DBK?" You asked, not understanding what it meant.

Tang cleared his throat and pushed up his glasses, "the demon bull king. He was one of the most dangerous and feared demons long ago. After he fought Monkey King, he became trapped by his legendary staff. But after recent events, he is released once again." He expressed as he posed dramatically. You remember about DBK through the last time he attacked. It nearly destroyed your boutique and home.

"Since mk isn't here to fight him, the city will be under his control in only a few moments." Tang sadly said. "Not unless we do something to stop him!" Pigsy said while you were putting the piece that Mk was the hero who fought him last time.

"Wait, You mean Mk was the one who defeated DBK?" You asked Tang, who nodded in response. He was about to speak, but Mei stopped him. "Yeah, don't you remember the not mayor giving him the key for saving the city?" She said, but you rubbed your neck. "No." You gave chuckled as she explained.

'mk is the new successor to the Monkey King, defeating DBK and his family. Especially red son! Save the world and learn to be the next Monkey King!' She said and showed images from Mk's battle, but something caught your attention.

"If we need Mk, isn't that him?" You pointed at 'Mk' walking out of the store. He appeared annoyed and indifferent about what was happening. Mei sighed and shook her head, "That's not mk." She hesitantly answered, pushing you away from him.

"Is he MK's twin?" You asked, but Mei ignored the question while 'Mk' scoffs, "I don't know what to tell you, guy." He said before heading to Pigsy's food truck. "Well, we better get ready before more of those junk of metals come," Pigsy warned, but it was too late.

A wave of Bull clones came out of nowhere. They stood around you and the gang, whispers growing louder. You heard a few words through the sound of unhinged metal jaws.

'another bump in the road of my destiny,'

'Your destiny hasn't changed just because you did.'

'You never learned your lesson, did you?'

'It seems I need to take care of this distraction,'

You felt the eyes of someone you knew. The same neon blue glow in your nightmares, but more aggressive and colder. If looks could kill, you'd be dead where you stand.

You stood there dumbfounded by the number of bull clones crawling on the buildings. One rushed to you, causing you to dodge its fist, only missing you by a few inches.

"To your right! (Y/n)!" You heard Mei order, making you hustle out of the way. Mei dug her sword into the clone, slicing it in half. More came charging at you guys, Mei was ready, but Pigsy's van was ramming into the and stopping in front of you two. Swinging the door, Pigsy shouted, "Get in! There's too many of them!"

You and Mei moved into the van quickly before more could reach you. Pigsy raced out of there, while bull clones were close behind. The gang drove for a while to shake off the remaining bull clones. "Where are we now?" Tang questioned, seeing the streets now vacant of life. You looked out the window and saw it was your home street.

"Hey, this is my street. Maybe we can hide out there for a bit. At least till the streets are clear." You said, making the gang agree because it was a sanctuary for now.

You gave directions to the shop. By the time you reached it, it was intact. Strangely enough, nothing seemed out of place. The buildings around it were crumbling, but not yours. You had an idea of who was keeping an eye on it.

You and the gang walked into the shop for a moment of peace. But it wasn't long till Pigsy asked you. "Odd, how come your place is in good condition, but others seemed to be deteriorating?" He looked at you, and you felt like they were knives.

You didn't know how to explain it! You were trying to understand the truth before all this mess! Even if you did, you probably made more enemies. "Uhm, I don't know, honestly," Your body felt like it was sinking to the floor underneath you. Sandy notices your expression and chimes in, "well, let's relax for a minute. I think it's just a coincidence." Pigsy sighed before moving on from it.

"Well, the city is now infested with these things. We'll have to wait out till Mk gets back." He said as Mei continued, "Until then, we will try and take out as many junk bots!" She beamed. Everyone agreed to this plan.

It wasn't long till everyone was doing their own thing. Mei was admiring your outfits, Tang documenting the event of what's happening, pigsy cooking some food, and 'Mk' not helping. Sandy, on the other hand, was worried about you and the new danger of these bots.

Meanwhile, you were doing something to calm your nerves and newfound dread.

Sewing.

You sew it had help when the dreams started, and you hope it will help you now. You continue to make the suit that Chief has a commission. But you were trembling and felt the needle prick your finger every time you stitched. You cursed under your breath before deciding to stop cause it wasn't helping. You had to take this moment to process everything going on. Or at least try.

Sandy sensed the stress you were going through as he walked into the back of the store to check in on you. He found you sitting down on the floor, trying to take a breather.

"(Y/n), you alright?" He whispered as he sat next to you. You nodded at first but soon shook your head afterward because it wasn't true. You weren't doing alright because of this. "No, I don't believe so," You answered. " First, finding out about my nightmares were my past life was a lot. Second, finding out my past love was the one who ended me and is still alive. Third, now this DBK is after me for some reason!" You vented it and felt your hands shaking.

"Sorry, it's just so much more. Just a couple of hours ago, I learned about Chief and him being my past love in my other life. Now, this…" You said as Moe walked from Sandy's shoulder to your arms. The blue feline helped you settle down as you took in deep breaths.

"It's okay, (Y/n). You have a right to feel like this and not know what to do next." Sandy said as he patted your back. "You also don't need to explain it to anyone else if you don't want." He mentioned, referring to Pigsy early. You chuckled, shaking your head. " I don't blame him. I would also be curious if somebody's place wasnt a mess during all this."

You felt better as you petted Moe, and the world seemed the slow down for a moment. "(Y/n), maybe it's a good idea to stay with us for a while after DBk is defeated. Just in case more things like this happen." Sandy said, breaking the silence. You thought about it. It was a good idea, especially with DBK coming after you for some reason.

"I'll think about it. Maybe when Pigsy isn't suspicious of me." You laughed. Sandy smiled, seeing you feeling much better than earlier. "I'm going to make some tea. You want some?" He asked, making you nod before seeing him leave.

Now, you're with your thoughts and a sleepy Moe. Moe kept grabbing your hand as you tried to get up but ultimately gave up and kept sitting down petting the blue feline. You sighed as your mind tried to piece together this newfound information.

"Now what?" You said out loud, " I have this huge revaluation of remembering my past life, dating my past love. Now this DBK guy wants me dead or something." You thought before your mind wandered to Chief and his peculiar smile.

You can feel your face turning pink as you recall your date with him. The fact that you still had the same feelings for him even after reincarnation.

"Is it okay to feel this way for him?" You question yourself before remembering the last few moments of your dreams.

"And is he still possessed by the 'humble spirit'?" You said. It wasn't long before you heard someone bursting into the room.

An excited Mei barged in and grinned. "(Y/N)! YOU'RE A DESIGNER, RIGHT!? MAYBE, WE CAN MAKE SOME COOL NEW OUTFITS! LIKE APOCALYPSE STYLED!" She expressed as you laughed. "Yeah, that sounds like fun. It can help get my mind off things." You said as you got up to see her ideas.

~hours later of Creating new outfits with Mei~

It was nighttime and had outfits on models. You and Mei decide to wait till morning to show it to the gang, but it's time to rest. You offered your home for them to sleep in and did your best to make them comfortable. Everyone was sleeping or was trying to. You went to the top of your building. Walking on the roof, you saw the city looking deteriorated but with fewer bull clones.

You stayed for a while before heading back until you heard the door close. You turned to see an envelope with a small box sealed with a blue bow.

Date with History

Chapter five

A/n: Hello there this chapter reader has a panic attack, so be warned. if you don't like this stuff. Ps, I can't come up with good titles. Sorry.

~That night~

You fell asleep, tried to the eventful day that occurred. As you dreamed, you knew something had changed. It played out the same tragic event, but the husband's face became clear. When you woke up at the end, you saw his face clear as day.

Chief.

You felt uneasiness when you woke, 'why was he in the husband's place?'. It felt too real now.

"It's just caused I hanged out with him yesterday," You try to reason with yourself. "Yeah, That's it." You got ready for the day.

'…Right?'

You try to shake the thought from your mind. But it had already left a stain of doubt.

~Days later, Outside of the Historical Museum~

'Well, this is it.' You thought as you stood outside of the museum.

'It seemed to be having a new exhibit.' Looking at banners that have images of old emperors and soldiers. You walked in as you had suspected Chief was inside. 'I didn't get a time… so hopefully, he is inside.'

You look around near the entrance, noticing the art and artifacts. How beautiful they still were, even after all these years. "Wow, would those scissors still work?" You whisper to yourself as your eyes gaze at a pair of green scissors with red stains.

"I'm sure with some oil, they would work good as new!" A familiar voice comes from behind, causing you to jump in surprise. Your turn to see Chief smiling as usual and waving at you. You sighed in relief as he walked to you and looked at the portraits on the wall. "Sorry for scaring you, dear." He apologized to you as you shook your head.

"No, it's fine." You smiled weakly, "I thought I might have been late." You said. "No, my dear, You're just in time." He said as his expression seemed to soften when his eyes laid on you. "Did you know the new exhibit they have opened? It's about the empire that The Great Monk and the pilgrims saved."

"Wow, I don't know that. Have you already seen this exhibit?" You chuckled as Chief took one of your hands. "Nope, I just read the sign." He laughed as he showed the sign saying something similar. You felt dumb for not seeing it before realizing you were holding hands.

He walked with you around the museum and talked about the artifacts there. You felt your face turning pink as peach as you both continued walking around.

'Should i say something? I mean, I don't mind.' You thought as he held on to your hand. You held on tighter to his hand as he kept talking before entering the new exhibit.

The exhibit had displays of artifacts, clothing, and pottery. Hanging on the walls are portraits of its people and the emperor. The armor and weapons of that time had their exhibition. You felt like you went brought back in time as you walked in.

"Wow, this is astounding!" You said as your eyes lit up with wonder as you both stopped in for a moment. Chief grinned at your enjoyment of the exhibit. "I'm glad you enjoy it, (Y/n). I had a feeling this might be to your taste." He said as he brought you to the displayed clothing.

You smiled as your eyes followed the beautiful fabric and the sewing. You didn't notice that Chief's eyes were just on you. He loved how your face and smiles were still the same as they were back then. "The person who made this must have been very skilled! I mean, the stitching and needlework are impressive." You expressed.

"I'm sure the lady who made this hanfu poured a lot of time into it," Chief said, without taking his eye off you. He knew who made it.

It was you in your previous life.

He had watched you dedicate your free time to create that hanfu. Chief would stay by your side when you made it. He knew how much it had meant to you. It was for your daughter when she was older. Sadly, the hanfu got lost amongst the rubble of the chaos. He was surprised that it was found intact.

Chief broke away from the thought as you asked him a question. "Chief? You okay?" You asked, seeing him dazed out. "Yes, I'm fine, my dear. Shall we keep looking?" He questioned you. You nodded your head and felt a squeeze on your hand.

You both went to the drawn portraits. You were staring at the emperor portraits and saw how they had some scratches and tears. You read the description of who he was and how he passed.

You were about talk to Chief, but you turned and saw his expression. He had his usual smile, but this smile seemed more enraged. His eye alone could rip the picture into shreds.

"Uhm, let's move on to a different one," you said as you took the lead. You held his hand tighter, pulling him away from the portrait to the others. There were some of its citizens, their families, and children. You found them charming. A tap on your shoulder caused you to turn to see an elderly lady.

"I'm sorry to bother you both on your date, but you both look similar to the painting." She spoke softly and pointed at one of them. It was of a small family. The couple did look like you and Chief with a young daughter. "Talk about finding your double," You whispered under your breath. You heard Chief mumbled, but you weren't sure what he said.

'Did he say "I still look amazing,"' You thought what probably said before you were interrupted.

"How lovely that you both found each other again." The elderly lady said before walking away. A small chuckled left your lips as you turned to Chief. "Well, that was weird…"

"Maybe she isn't too far off," He said before you both moved on to the weapons and armor exhibit. Goosebumps crawled up your skin, and you tried to snap out of it. Chief looked pleased, and you knew you had to keep going even if it made you feel squeamish.

As you both walked around, the uneasiness grew. Your mind couldn't hear Chief speaking. It wasnt long until you guys stopped in front of one of the suits of armor. You freeze in place as your eyes widen in dread.

Chief gave off a pleased grin as he gazed at it. He remembers how he was proudly wearing it, even with a useless emperor. He wore it proudly for Lady Bone Demon and (Y/n) back then. You saw his grin and felt like falling to your knees, carefully letting go of Chief's hand.

"I'm going to get some air." You said as you tried to move but felt your feet stuck in place. You only took a step or two back before Chief stopped you. He noticed you becoming a shade lighter.

A flash of it digging into your chest crossed your mind as Chief got closer. "My dear (Y/n), are you-" before he could finish his sentence, you cut him off.

"Yup, I'm alright! Maybe a bit queasy," You gave a forced laughed and brushed it off. "But let's keep looking." Grabbing his hand and almost rushing to another exhibit. Chief gave a small sigh before he stopped you and carried you out of the museum.

Bridal style again.

Finding a nice area outside with the least amount of people. "My dear, I think lying about your health isn't a good thing." He said sternly but with a soft smile as he put you on a bench. He was right, though.

"Sorry, I guess I just got uncomfortable in there." You said, looking down away from him. "Oh my dear, If you felt uncomfortable, you should have told me." He sat next to you, "I want you to have fun on this date. It wouldn't be as good if I had all of it."

You felt your face lightly blush as he said that. "I didn't want to ruin it, even if it made me feel some deja vu." You said. Chief grin disappeared for a moment before it became a concerned one. "Deja Vu?" He asked, and you nodded your head.

"Yeah, as if I was walking in the steps of someone before me." You spoke and made him sweat a bit. "What kind of steps?" He questioned you. "I guess how they died." That last word struck his heart. Chief hoped You had forgotten the worst part, but he was wrong. Still having he smiled, he asked. "It must have been hard then. I'm sorry…" He said in a somber tone and looked away.

"It's okay. I mean, it isn't your fault." You said. How he wished it was true. He chuckled sadly at the fact he had caused you harm in this life. You both sat in silence for a bit and felt the mood becoming bleak. You didn't want to be in a gloomy mood, so you got up and placed your hand in front of him.

"Hey, wanna get something to eat? There's a nice dessert shop near here." You asked him. Chief got back his usual smile, bouncing his head in agreement. "It would be wonderful to end it on a high note." He took your hand and followed you.

You both got some boba and cakes. Chief somehow knew your favorite flavor, but you didn't question it. You both talked about the better part of the museum. He watched you ramble on the beautiful clothing and its craftsmanship.

By the time the day was over, he brought you home and disappeared the same way as before, in a large cloud of blue puff, not before kissing your hand. He didn't ask for another date, but you had a feeling he wasn't far from you.

You fell on your bed and felt happy to have a good day. Even with that incident happened. You tried to put it aside, but your mind couldn't. You decided it would be a good idea to talk to one of your few friends about this.

Sandy.

He's a good listener even to crazy things like this.

~The next day and a few hours of working~

After finishing the vest, you decided to head to Sandy's place. As you walked to the harbor, you felt eyes on you. You turned to see no one but other people walking around and kids playing. Luckily you had a weapon on you in case some demons followed you. Pepper spray!

You got to Sandy's boat house, and he greeted you with a cup of tea. Sandy was a friend you met at a pet shop, buying a harness for Bai He cat. You both had pleasant conversations and share teas. You had a delightful chat, but he knew you got something bothering you. He asked you before spilling into the nightmare and deja vu.

You told him everything from the nightmare to meeting Chief to the incident on the date. Sandy nodded along as you unload everything. He took a sip as you finished, and you turned to him to see his reaction to it. Sandy had a simple smile before pulling out large books and scrolls.

"So it is possible!" He said. You were surprised that he had done his research on this matter. "(Y/n), do you know about reincarnation?" He asked, and you sighed with a nod.

"Then, I'm sure everything you are experiencing is what happened in your previous life. Via the dream and Deja Vu. All the pleasant and not so pleasant experiences." He said and patted your back in a way to comfort you.

"So, what makes Chief? Is he my past love then?" You jokingly said, but he nodded. You felt your heart race before your cheeks turned pink. "Well, isn't that something?" You didn't know how to react to this.

If it was the truth, that means he did end your life. So why is he nice to you now? Your mind raced with questions before Sandy snapped you back to earth.

"Hey, it's a lot to take in, but remember it best to go at your own pace. No need to take it all in at once." Handing you a cup of tea to relax. He was right, it was a lot, but you can get through it.

"Thanks, Sandy, you always know what to say," you smiled at him as one of his cats jumped on you. "Hey, Sandy? Why were you researching this kind of stuff?" You ask the blue guy, and he quickly laughs.

"Well, I had my thoughts on it for my friends, but I think it best saved for another time," he said before drinking his tea. Another thing he was right on. Before you left, a loud explosion occurred.

Familiar

Chapter Four!

A/n: Sorry this one took so long, my brain wanted to work on other things before this one. Sadly I had to follow but now I'm back on it with a better plan than before! I hope you guys like this one! Please mind the spelling and grammar errors.

~hours later~

You worked on the suit as your mind was thinking about Chief. You weren't concentrating much on your surroundings to see that it was already late into the afternoon. You didn't notice a small cat creeping into the store along with a young girl with black hair.

"Kitty! You have to stop wondering on your own!" A small voice expressed as they tried to catch the feline. It jumped on you as you finished the foundation of the suit. You sighed as you saw the child giggling at you.

"Bai? What did I tell you about taking the cat outside?" You looked at her as she pouted. "To at least have a harness on them." You giggled as you gave her back the feline.

Bai was a young girl who came to your shop after school. You were her babysitter in a sense. She would stay here till her mom or dad came for her. You remember her mom talked about a huge shadow monster destroying her home, and they had to work double shifts to pay off the damages. She offered to pay you as a sitter, but you didn't mind taking care of her.

When Bai was here, she would study and play with the cat as you worked. Sometimes show you her drawing of dress or suits. You remember when she first came into your small shop.

~flashback~

Bai wasn't having a good day as she walked around. Her cat friend was missing. You were putting away inventory as she stepped into the store. She caught your attention as she was to the point of tears. "ma'am? Have you seen my cat?" She holds a lost poster with an orange cat. Your heart broke in two as you saw her trying to hold it in. "sorry, kid." You told her, causing her to give a defeated sigh.

"But I can help you look for him. If that's okay?" You said, giving her a tissue. Bai accepts the tissue and the assistance. "Mhm! Thank you very much!" She cried into the tissue and smiled at you.

As you held her hand as you walked around searching, "Where was the last you saw your cat?" You asked her. Bai sniffed before answering, "In the park. A few days ago, I was taking him to the vet, but he ran off as soon as we got close to it." You both looked around and saw nothing for a while. You didn't want to give up that easily. You soon saw a trail of orange fur outside of the park. "I think we found our first clue." You said as you pointed it out to Bai. She was excited, even if it was a small clue.

You both followed it into an alley and saw a box with orange fur around it. The box itself was making noise and moving. "Hmm? What do we have here?" You said and opened it, revealing the orange cat sleeping and hugging a stuffed animal.

"Awe, he looks so peaceful," Bai said, waking up the cat and it jumping into her arms. "Buddy! Please don't do that again!" She cried and held the feline close to her. You smiled and patted her back.

"Let's get out of here now. It's giving me creepy vibes here." You said now realizing how dark and creepy it was. You hope you both never come back to this place again.

~flash back ends~

You smiled seeing the two snuggle with each other as you work. You asked Bai how her day went, and she complained about how school was hard and no fun. Made you giggle as she did an impersonation of a 'bad' teacher with the feline. Time passed by as it became dark. You both waited for her mom to come to get her.

"(Y/n)? Do you like someone?" Bai asked out of nowhere. "What do you mean? Of course, I do! She's right here," you proudly said as you ruffled her head. She laughs and shakes her head. "No, I mean like like someone? Like love." She said curiously to you. You were scratching the back of your head wondering what to say to her. Did you like someone?

"Maybe? But that's a secret," you said, doing a shh face at her. She was in awe, "Can you tell me? I promise not to tell anyone else!" You laugh as she pleads before giving in. "Okay, okay. But you have to promise me?" You told her, and she nodded furiously. Before you got to say anything, Bai's mother came in causing you to stop.

"Welp looks like you have to go home now." You said as the young girl pouted. "I'll tell you when you come back. I promise." You said her your hand. She nodded and shook it before running off with her mom. Her mom thanked you as they walked out.

"Good night Bai! Be good now!" You said to her as she left. "I promise!" She said as they walked away. You didn't know why, but you had an unsettling feeling, as they walked away. You shook it off, 'Maybe I'm just hungry,' You thought as you closed the shop. "Time to reward myself!" You said as you walked to get some take-out. You went to a nearby shop and waited for your order. Your mind went back to Chief as time went by.

'Why does it feel like I know him more personally? I just met him,' you thought as you can hear your order is called. Mindless taking it and walking back home you can see the wonderful city, seeing beautiful scenery as you hear soft lofi. You didn't notice three figures following you.

"When did it get so late? I need to hurry before the monkey cop starts." You said walking a bit faster. The three figures were trailing behind you as you took a shortcut.

Your headphone fell off as you almost tripped on the jagged street. You grabbed it in time before it hit the ground. You noticed shadows behind yours, caused by the streetlights. You froze, mind racing with thoughts of how to escape this.

You breathe in, acting like you didn't notice them. Pretending to still listen to music as you slowly walked away. Picking up the pace, 'come on! Please leave me alone!' you prayed as you finally started running.

You felt your heart stop in fear. You turned a corner and threw your food at them, causing two to fall. There was only one following close as you ran for safety. 'why me! I'm just trying to get food!' you mentally cried as you ran into someone. Almost falling to the ground, a hand caught you by your waist.

"Uhh-Chief?" You look up and see the man unfazed. "My dear (Y/n)! What are you doing here!" He said, surprised at you being out at night. He saw how you were sweating and breathing fast.

"Is everything alright?" He picked you up bridal style. This cause you to go blank and your face to go red. "what-? Uh, I'm getting chased by demons!" You remembered what was happening. You turn to see the demon that followed you.

It looked at you and then saw Chief before lighting struck behind him. He chuckled as you held on to him, your eyes blinded by the light. You didn't see the shadow figure it created on the ground.

" My good fellow, I think you might want to reconsider your decision. Chasing down this beauty would be a great mistake," He grinned at the demon now terrified of him.

The demon slowly backed away before running. You opened your eyes and found nothing. You were confused, "What happened? How did you?" You stumbled with your words.

Chief set you down before asking, "My dear, do you want company as you walk home?" You nodded quickly. You didn't want to walk home alone after that!

"Yeah, if you don't mind." You said, chuckling nervously and scratching the back of your neck. You gave him a hug catching him by surprise. "Thank you! I thought I was a goner." You smiled and felt him hugging you back.

"Hey, Chief? Do you mind if i ask, what were you doing?" You asked, not sure what he was doing before you interrupted him. "Oh, nothing important, just wondering around!" He said with his usual smile.

You both walked in comfortable silence as you got home.

It felt so familiar.

"Thank you again." You felt your cheeks becoming pink as you continue. "I owe you one. If there's anything you need or want me to do, let me know." Chief grinned at you. As if he already had something in mind.

"You sure, you want to make a deal like that?" He asked as you nodded. "Yeah, I mean, if you didn't help, I'd probably be a goner." You gave a nervous chuckle.

"Well, do you mind if we meet at the city museum this weekend?" He said with a sweet smile. It took a minute to understand what he said. "Yeah," You nodded as he clapped his hand together. "It's a date!" He smiled wide before disappearing again in a puff of blue smoke.

"…..A date!" You yelled, learning what had occurred.

You went into your home and fell into your bed. You sighed in agony as you realized.

You were still hungry.

~Mayor Pov~

A loud cry rang out in the alleyway as two bodies lay on each other. Chief held one in his hand, tightening his grasp on his neck. The demon struggled, trying to break free as he lost consciousness. "W-why?" He asked before giving out one final gasp.

"Because I can't allow you three to live after attempting to hurt my (Y/n)." Chief laughed sadistically as the demon finally passed. He lets go of it as he walks away. Chief looked at the moon as he walked past by (Y/n) boutique.

"My dear, I hope you only remember the good time we had shared." He said as he disappeared into the night.

Coming Back

Chapter Three

A/n: FINALLY HERE BABY! Hello there! Sorry, it took away too long for me to post it. I had struggled to find a good plot or storyline to follow. No matter what I did, it didn't feel right, and I end up restarting. It happen about 3 times. But now i have a good storyline and how it would end. Then there was just Grammarly which gave me useless mistakes that change nothing! So to end this note with the usual. I am so sorry for any spelling and grammar errors.

Let's begin!

You wake up in a cold sweat, huffing and groggy. As you focused on your surroundings, you sighed. You were home, in your small apartment on top of your boutique. You took deep breaths, trying to calm yourself. “God. Another one of those dreams…” you said to yourself. Every night you had dreams about a family. Most were happy and lovely, but it always ended the same. Those cold blue eyes stared at you with emptiness. When trying to remember the girl and man, it becomes difficulted. “I need to see someone about this.” You said as you got changed and ready for work. Today you were meeting with a new client. Your assistant told you he seemed more interested in you than in the outfits. You were puzzled by what they meant by that but waved it off as nothing.

You walked out of the building with headphones in your ears and listened to a lofi music to wake up. ‘Man, I need to eat. Which place to go to?’ You thought about it and soon remembered a restaurant that your friend recommended. Pigsy Noodles. You searched for the address and walked till you saw the Pigsy noodle sign. As you walked and were greeted by a pig demon. “Welcome to Pigsy noodle! I’m Mk! What would you like to eat today?” A boy with a headband and yellow jacket popped in front of you. He startled you, but got over it and took a deep breath. Heard him apologize as you sat down. “It’s fine,” you said and looked at the menu. Everything looked amazing. You could not decide on what to eat. "Uh, this is my first time here. Is there a dish you would recommend?" You asked him. He smiled and said he'll be back. ‘I hope I made the right decision,’ You thought as you watched him talk to his boss.

You waited for a bit, scrolling through your phone and seeing what plan you had today. There wasn’t much but fixing clothing, the appointment, and cleaning up the store. It would be a long day. You didn’t notice a podium set up in the middle of the restaurant, and a man with a seemingly nice suit. Mk came with your bowl of Ramen and tasted the amazing noodles. As you ate, you looked up to see a person announcing that as the mayor, he was giving Mk being a hero the key to the city. You didn’t focus on what he was saying, but you were staring at him. He seemed familiar. You couldn’t tell, but your mind was sure you meet him before. As you finished and were about to get up and ask him a question, in a blink of an eye, he vanished. “What happened to the mayor?” You said and a girl with a green dragon jacket responded. “I don’t think that’s the mayor, and he disappears in an instant, leaving in a blue cloud of smoke.” You felt defeated because you wanted to talk to him. Even if he didn’t seem normal to the other people there. “Damn.” You said under you breathe.

You paid for your food and told Mk his choice of noodles was amazing. You mentally planned on coming back in hoping to meet that mayor guy. You walked back to your store to open, getting ready to meet your new client. As you cleaned up, you saw outside and how seeing an odd shadow coming from the tinted window. They looked so large and had so many muscles. ‘They looked well built,’ You thought before they entered and saw an average person. You were so confused but shook it off as still being tired. A man with blackish-grey hair with a horizontal light blue streak walked into your store. He wore a black suit with blue stripes on the jacket, a blue shirt, and a dark blue tie.

When you met his eyes, you realized it was the mayor from earlier. “Hello there! You must be the new client my assistant told me about.” you smiled as you looked into the planner and saw the name it was on. Trying to keep your cool and acting like you never saw him.”Your name is Chief, right?" You look at him. He grins and nods. “Yes, that would be me, my dear!” He said and extended his hand to shake yours, “And you must be the stunning and talented (Y/n)! I have heard a lot about your clothing.”

You heard him say as you shook his hand and another wave of déjà vu hits you. You held on to his hand longer. Your fingers creased his. You didn’t realize you were staring before he snapped you out of it.

“I know. I am quite handsome.” He chuckled as you let go of his hand. You felt embarrassed and said, “I’m so sorry for staring off into space!” “Oh, don’t worry, my dear! I’m here looking for a better suit. I had to one for what feels like centuries!” He laughed it off and showed his suit. It had small holes and even a sleeve becoming undone. “Don’t worry, we have many suites ready to go, or if you like, I can make a custom one tailored to you.” You smiled.

“Hmmm, I would love a new one tailored to me!” He exclaimed. “Alright, I will have one of my associates take you to measure-“ you explained how it would happen, but he stopped you. “But, I want a hand made by you and you alone!” He exclaimed. His request surprised you. “Um, if you don’t have an issue with it?” You agreed. Soon you felt strong arms around you as he hugged you. How buff was this man, you thought! You felt your face heating up.

“Well, let’s get to work!” Smiled as he twirled you around. “Okay, but please can you put me down?” you said, looking away, not wanting him to see your bashful face. He placed you down carefully as if you were made of porcelain. “I’m sorry, I am just excited,” he laughed. “It’s alright. I’ll take you to the back to get the measurements.” You said as you showed him the back of the boutique and stand in front of three mirrors.

A while in and you talked to him about the color and patterns he wanted. You took out the measuring tape and placed it around his arms, legs, waist, and chest. It was quiet, too quiet. You wanted to say something, but nothing came out. What you didn’t know, his eyes were on you and only you, even as you wrote down measurements.”Uh, Mister Chief?" You said softly, catching his attention. “Yes, my dear?” He said in a sweet voice.

“Have we met before?” You said, he responded quickly. “Why yes, of course! In the noodle restaurant! I saw you there, and you looked adorable.” You felt your face redden from embarrassment. Did you not notice him looking at you? You shook your head and said, “I know I saw you there, but I mean somewhere else? Cause it feels like I have met you and know you.” You scratch your neck in nervousness. “I don’t know. Maybe, I’m too tired.” You chuckled in the hope the awkwardness would disappear.

“Maybe, in another life. Maybe we had met or even fallen for each other.” He explained. “Do you believe in a past life, miss (Y/n)?” He asked after getting closer to you. It went unnoticed as you write small notes and details to add to the suite. “maybe, I mean, I do believe in soul mates as well. But it’s just hoping and probably not true.” You sadly grinned because you wanted to believe in it so badly. You turned around to see him smiling in the same place he was standing for his measurements. “well, I got it down. Now you would have to wait for a while. But we can sell/rent you suits if you have any upcoming occasions.” You gave a soft smile as he nodded in agreement.

“I do have a celebration coming up. Mind showing me your best and favorite suits?” He asked you. You thought for a moment and got out three suits of different shades of blue. “I hope these outfits are good enough to wear.” You grinned at him. One suit caught his eyes. “I think I found the one. It looks well made.” He said as you looked at it. It looked like his original outfit. He went to a changing room and came out looking more handsome. He wore a black suit with blue stripes on the jacket, a light blue shirt, and a dark blue tie. “This is perfect!” He exclaimed and turned to you. “How much would it be to buy it?” He asked you, and you were awed by how he looked in it. You mentally slapped yourself back to reality before he noticed you staring again.

“Well, with this and everything else, it would be $1,500. For the handmade suit, it’s half up front.” You said it and are about to tell him the price. But out of nowhere, he just handed you a brick of cash! “Awe, would it be alright if I pay it all upfront? I do trust you and your skillful hands.” He said as he gently grabbed your hand and kissed it. You were becoming a blushing mess and almost fainted. “Um, are you sure? You just met me?” You say, avoiding his eyes a bit. But his hand met your cheek and made you look at him.

“I know, but maybe we did meet in another life.” He said as he let go of your cheek when your assistant finally came to the store. “Hey (Y/n)! I need some help with inventor-Am I interrupting something?” You snapped back to reality. You were about to say something the mayor beat you to it. “No, I was paying for these lovely clothes and asking (Y/n) for her contacts. I want to know if something happens to the suits or her.” He coolly said, as if he didn’t turn you into a blushing mess. You nodded your head. “Yup! That is it! I’ll be with you (A/n). Just need to finish this up.” You laughed nervously as your assistant looked confused but shrugged it off.

“I hope we can meet again. Maybe somewhere more peaceful and quiet.” He said as he handed a small black and blue card with his contact information. You took it and gave him yours. He smiled and did a bow before leaving the store. “Miss (Y/n).” He said midway through the door. “If you are in trouble, please do not hesitate to contact me.” He turned to you with a sickeningly sweet smile. You nodded and said goodbye as he soon disappeared as he did in the restaurant.

Your mind broke whatever charm you were on. You blinked a few times before screaming at yourself.

“WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!”

The void before the rebirth

Hello again! This is part two of The Lady and Her Monster. This does not have as much violence as the first part. This does still have some towards the end. So that's a small warning. Also, the parts that are Italic are memories. Sorry for the spelling and grammer errors.

Summary: You have died now and you are in a white void. You didn't have an idea of what was happening. Until an image appeared and it was a beautiful and now painful memory. The day you met Chief. 

words: 1,755

You woke in a white void, looking around to see no one.

You yelled into the blank void, “Hello? Is anyone here?” Nothing happened, and you whispered to yourself. “what is this place?"

Until an image of how you both met popped up. As if it was a screen from your point of view. You knew what was happening. Was your life flashing before your eyes or was it after cause you were already dead? Your thought cut off when you looked at the image before it moved. You realized what memory it was.

How you met him when he was on duty in your section of the empire. He was a young soldier before becoming the empire war Chief. You were a simple fabric worker walking home for the night till a group of men harassed you, you yelled at them to leave, and it caught his attention. Before things got out of hand, he stepped in and beat these men until they were unconscious. He scanned around before he turned towards you. The moonlight made him look handsome. 

That is when you felt your heart flutter for him. He asked if you were okay, and you nodded. Before he left, you tugged his cape and asked him if he can take you home. You still felt some fear, you wanted to get home safely, and he agreed. “So.. what’s your name? I would love to thank you For saving me. ” You asked him. He gave you a weird look before he answered. “ Um... It's chief.” You thought it was a cute nickname. “Well, Chief. My name is (Y/n). Thank you for saving me and teaching them a lesson.” You smiled as you both had a blush line forming on your cheeks.

After that, you sought him out more to have a small chit-chat and even get refreshing drinks on hot days. You even found out his real name was actually Chief. You giggled a bit but found it quite fitting for him. He was awkward at first because, he was always strict with his fellow soldiers, but when you came into his life, he became happier and positive about it now. Every moment you spent with him was amazing. Both of your lives became better with each other. 

You cried as you saw these images flashing by, wanting things to go back to the way they were. “Why... why us...” you wept as another memory popped up. You saw through your watery eyes, it was the moment he asked you out on a date.

It was a sunny day in the market, and you went to surprise him on his route. You didn’t know yet that he was talking to himself about how he was going to ask you out. He became flustered and started to stutter every time he thought of you. It never happened to him and he became more frustrated till you appeared behind him, giving him a scare. You were laughing cause he was hard making his scare. You both talked for a bit about your day and went to a beautiful lake field with waterlilies. You both had fun and talked more until he brought up the topic of love and asked who would be your perfect love.

You were surprised at this question and thought about it for a bit before giving him an answer. "I wanted someone who can protect you, that he wants kids and to help the people of this empire. But someone like would never fall for me." You chuckle, till he spoke quietly "what if that someone was next to you, and they did fall for you." He said as he looked down with a deep pink blush crossing his face, before taking a deep breath and was about to tell you, but you kind of beat him to it. You jumped onto him for a hug and kissed his cheek, not noticing that you both almost fell into the lake. "I was wondering when you were going to ask me!" You told him as you confess how you fell for him from the first night you met.

You wanted these images to stop playing. You could not handle it, feeling your heart ache for the love you both had for each other. The memory of you both marrying passed by and was replaced with the day your daughter was born. 

He was called to war at the start of your pregnancy. You understood when you married him, he would be called to fight for the empire. Now you were on your last month of it. You were with your mother, she came to help after he was sent off. He made a vow he will come back as soon as possible. You hoped and pray to the gods to protect him and for him to come back home safely to see his child. 

You held on to your tummy as you whispered to your child who their father was. "He is an amazing man, he will be here for you, to catch you when you fall, to lift you, and to guide you in this life." You smiled and continue to speak softly "you will do amazing things, with us behind you to support and protect you." 

A few days later you felt your water break, your mother called you to the nearest doctor and helped you breathe, and held your hand. You cried as the pain felt like forever, and you wanted your husband to be there holding your hand as well. Within a few hours, the pain worsen and the doctor told you it was time to push. You were scared and cried as you pushed, till a familiar voice came shouting into the room. "(Y/N)!! My lady!!" It was him, your Chief.

"My lady, I'm here for you." He walked closer to you and hugged you. "You can do this, please keep pushing," he said, giving you the power to push the pain aside. After a couple more powerful pushes, you both heard the cries of your child. You smiled weakly as Chief kissed you, "congratulations! It's a girl!" The doctor said as the nurse cleaned her before they gave her to you.

Your child had a small tuff of (h/c), and a whimper for warmth. "My little girl... (D/n)" you smiled and you brought her closer to you. "(D/n).. that's a beautiful name for a beautiful lady," Chief said holding you and her closely. You both have a tender kiss before hearing a whimpering sound from (D/n). You giggle thinking she was jealous of being left out already. 

"We were so happy...." You said with no energy left as happier memories passed by and flashed before you. When it was your daughter's 100 days when you heard he became War Chief, when it was your 6th anniversary, when it was (D/n) 5 birthday and when you both wanted to have another child... "Was this our fate?.. to be given happiness only to have it ripped away..." 

You didn't realize as you cried, your memories started to come closer to the last few months. When he was acting strange, when he became more aggressive and angry, when you had explained to your child "he has a hard day at work", up until the moment he stopped coming home altogether and left you both alone. The final few days were you asking to see him, and asking his fellow soldiers what was happening only for them to intimidate you into leaving the place. You were worried about him, but you had a child that needed her mama.

On the last day, you hear screams from outside, and you rush outside to see shards of crystals erupt from the ground. Your eyes widen to the sight of chaos and destruction. You turn to find your daughter clutching onto your leg, worrying about what was happening. 

"It's okay (d/n), we have to get out of here." You said, before hearing a blood-curdling scream. You turn to see where the cry came from and saw HIM. Your husband, your Chief... He didn't notice until (D/n) smiled and shouted "Papa!! Your home!!" She was about to run to him, til you stopped her. She was about to throw a fit but was paralyzed by the scene displayed before her. As a citizen ran to him for help and they only meet his blade. 

That's where it stopped and return to the white void. You felt empty after seeing your life pass by again. Til a voice called out to you "(Y/n), you will soon be reincarnated into your next life." You were stunned by the voice, but two questions popped into your head. Before you could utter a word, the voice spoke again. "Your child is safe with her grandparents, she was saved by a group of pilgrims that found her. Now they have moved far away from the empire." You sigh with ease. But it was washed away when the voice talked about your husband. 

"As for your husband, he was possessed by the one they called lady bone demon, months, after she came into the empire." chills went down your spine. "Who's this Lady Bone Demon? Why is she causing this much misery?" You questioned the entity. "She wants to help the mortals in this world, and she thought helping the emperor would make a difference but due to his selfishness and arrogance, nothing changed. So she came up with a plan to start the world over again with a clean slate." It spoke sounding sad. 

"Will it happen? Or did it already happen?" you asked, it was silent for a while. You started to become anxious as you thought this silence meant yes. "no, it didn't happen. That's all I can answer for that question." You weren't sure if it provide you with the comfort you needed. 

"(Y/n), are you ready?" The voice softly spoke, but you had to know one more thing. "Will I be with my family in the next life? My daughter, and my husband?" You said with hope in your voice. "For your daughter, you will. For your husband, he will still be alive when you reincarnate. But you will see him" You were confused as to how he would still be alive. 

"It's time to go now," the soft voice said before a blinding light showered on you. "Have hope in this life (Y/N). Even a smidge of it can make a difference."

The Lady and Her Monster

A/n: Hello there, This is a Mayor x Reader fanfic, inspired by the artwork of @neonross of the mayor and his daughter. The link is here. It is incredible, as well as their Bull kid au.

**This is a warning that this first part contains gory descriptions and death. So It's rated M for violence**

This is also one of a three or four-part fanfic. I'm unsure because I have ADHD and fall in and out of writing/fandom. (Hyperfixation is a curse!!)

Summary: The day lady bone demon start destroying the empire and eliminating the emperor. But she also needed to keep her tool in check, so she commanded him to eliminate the one thing holding him back, his love for you and his daughter.

Sidenote; I gave the mayor a name.....It's chief... I know it's a terrible name. The mayor also starts as a human before fully becoming the LBD servant. It has been a long while since writing fanfiction and the first time to post it on Tumblr. So there may be spelling mistakes that I may have missed.

Now on to the story.

You held your young daughter close as you gazed into the eye of your former husband. The cold blue that emanated from his eyes, this wasn't the man you knew and loved. He was something else, something frightening and horrible. He held his bloodstained blade.

When did it go wrong? When did he become this monster you see before you?

You felt tears from your daughter as she was holding on to you for dear life. "Mama! What's happening? Why is papa hurting people?" She cried as you couldn't explain it to her. How could? You don't know what was possessing him to do this.

"Sweetie, That is not your papa... Not anymore..." that's all you could muster as he walked towards you both with blood-soaked katana in hand. Before he started to run, you bolted with your daughter in your arms into the house. You felt the swing of his blade was close behind you. Turning to close the door, you saw his unnerving grin before slamming the door shut and grabbing a nearby chair to slow him down. It gave you both enough time to run into the cellar as he busted into the home you both made.

You held in your breath as you tried to soothe your child. Trying to think of a way to keep her safe, you thought of your parents outside the empire. "My lady, we're going to play a game. Okay, you remember how you ran to your grandma and grandpa's home outside of the empire against daddy to see who's faster?"

She nodded in confusion. Why did you want to play a game at a time like this? "You need to run to them while I stop papa from catching up to you. Okay? Don't stop for anything until you are there and safe." You heard him upstairs walking into each room, flinging items out of the way while the doors shattered as he tried to find you both.

You held you're breath and heard him going into the farthest room, your only chance for your daughter to flee from the demon in your home. You quickly tip-toed out of the basement, carrying her closet to your chest to shield her eyes from the horror the empire had become. Shards of giant blue crystal erupted out of nowhere and destroyed buildings, entrapping citizens, some piercing through them. As bodies drop on the street, families cry out for lost loved ones, and neighbors attempt to liberate their friends from crystal.

As soon as you escaped the chaos, you ran into the forest near your parent's home. "Okay, my lady, remember..." You began to tear up, knowing this was the last time you'll ever hold her. "Don't look back, and keep running till you are safe and far away from here...." You choked on your sobs as you hugged her tightly and kissed her on the forehead. "Mama..." She utters as she tries to hold back her tears. "I love you, my little lady."

Before your daughter could say anything, a twig snapped behind you. Dread wanted to take over and paralyze you, but you knew you had to hold him back for your daughter. You turn to see the man you once adored smiling maliciously. It made your guts turn sour as you turned to your daughter "(d/n), run... Get out of here!" You shouted as you heard the crunching of leaves get farther away from you both, now in a stand-off. You knew you were not going to survive.

"Is this how you protect your child?" He spoke, sounding like a mad man as he laughed. "You mean our child!! Chief, what has happened to you?!" You shouted at him, clenching your hands into fists, holding in your sobs. "Destiny happened to me sadly... You both aren't in it." He utters before lunging forward at you. Without having enough time to respond, he held you by your neck and chuckled before slamming you into a tree.

You coughed as the air was knocked out of your lungs, dropping onto the ground, gasping as you struggled to stand. Only to feel a hand grab a fist full of your (h/c) hair and yank you up. You stood face to face with this monster. The cold blue of his eyes meets your weeping (E/C) ones. He was about to slam you into the tree again until you both heard a woman's voice coming from behind him. "This has gone on long enough,"

"It's time to finish with this. We must concentrate on our destiny at hand." She said coldly into your eyes as you fell to the ground. You saw her form come closer as you screamed at her, "WHO ARE YOU? HOW COME YOU'RE DOING THIS?!" She turned towards you as she spoke."I am but a humble spirit. I came here on a mission to help the mortals be free from the pain and imperfections of this world. I thought if I was able to help the emperor and make him into a better person, we could make this land prosper, but after a few months of working for him, I realized that it was pointless. He never cared about anyone else but himself, even moments before he died." This lady explained you sat up and yelled. "THEN WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY HUSBAND?!" Before feeling a blade dig in slowly into your shoulder. You cried in agony and pain as you heard him bark at you. "Show your respect to my lady."

You felt your heart sink as he yanked the blade out of you. You pressed your hand onto your shoulder to stop the bleeding somehow. "Your husband is a powerful man (Y/n), and he is so close to his future, but there is only one thing holding him back" She walked closer towards you and saw Chief kneeling for her. The woman grabbed your face and force you to look at her speaking softly. "you and your daughter." Your eyes widen " Leave her out of this!" you spat out before she let you go. "I respect your efforts into savings your offspring but note this if she comes back," She said as her eyes started to glow neon blue. "I will not have any mercy." Turning towards the once-thriving empire as she gave her final order. "End her."

You looked at her before turning to your former husband and saw him raising his katana, looking down at you. You closed your eyes and braced yourself for what happened next. Till you felt tear drops falling from his eyes onto your face as he smiled, before he brought his blade down, you gave him a final smile and calmly "I love you, my dear Chief." In his mind, one thing that was his own before fully succumbing to her influence was ' I'm sorry I couldn't protect you, my lady (Y/n)..'

Your final words to the man you spent your last few moments of life. As you passed, he wiped his tears away as he stared off into the depth of the woods before following the lady bone demon to the emperor's palace. Unbeknownst to them, two pairs of puffed (d/e/c) watched in horror behind a tree only a couple of feet away. Hiccups and sniffles came out as she turned in the direction of her grandparents, running as fast as she stumbled and tripped over roots. Huffs of air escaped her tiny lungs as they tried their best to keep up.

Her little legs with scrapes and scratches kept running as she fought the urge to fall over and wail about the scene keeps replaying in her head. (D/n) runs out of the woods, meeting a meadow of flowers. A vision of her and her father picking flowers and creating flower crowns for one another flashed in her mind. "Mama! Papa!" she whimpers as she reaches for safety underneath the only peach tree. She falls to the ground, and she feels her body trembling out of fear and sadness as she attempts to catch her breath as if it were her last and feels her energy fade.

(D/n) glanced up towards the night sky and said a small, simple prayer. "Please, help us.." Before giving in to exhaustion.
