HAVOC MONKEYS! LMK x reader

ONE: WHATS LEFT IN THE DUST

Suddenly, all 5 of them directed their attention to a shadow jumping on top of buildings, heading straight to the monster, a tail swishing behind him. "is that..?" The girl asked Mk, to which he didn't know how to respond, so after the monkey had punched the monster, he quickly ran to where he landed.

"Monkey king- AH!" Mk yelled as he fell. The supposedly Monkey King looked in the direction Mk had fallen before walking away, only to find the boy right in front of him once he turned his head back.

"That was awesome. I can't believe you came back to -- this is awkward. You're not Monkey King." Mk sweatdrops at the monkey he thought was his mentor, who doesn't seem that bothered by it as he shrugs.

"I get that a lot. Monkie Kid, right?"

Mk looked at him, confused. "How did you--"

"Your staff gives you away. Not just anyone can wield that thing."

After a while, Mk discovered that the monkey's name was Macaque and that he was willing to teach him how to do that cool trick he did to end the monster. He said, "you can never have too many teachers, right?" Mk ultimately agreed, thinking his current teacher wouldn't mind.

Not knowing he had just made a mistake for being impatient.

Once they both had entered Macaque's Dojo, Macaque clapped his hands as the lights turned on. The Dojo had a lot of things the two could use.

"Alright, kiddo~ let's get started."

After many rough days of intense training from the dark monkey, Mk is again thrown by his harsh teacher, with bruises forming on every part of his body. He flinches when Macaque grabs him by the shoulder as he smirks. "You're ready."

"Ready for what?" Mk questions softly, too tired to speak any louder.

"I found where it lives." He states as he makes Mk get up so he can show him the location. Mk felt like his limbs were on fire, but he didn't want Macaque to think he was wasting his time training him. He was forcing himself up and nodding at his teacher, who only smiled.

During his sessions he couldn't help but feel weaker and weaker...

So now Macaque leads Mk to a mountain where the monster that attacked Megapolis' lived. The way up was enough warm-up for the poor boy.

"The Smoke Monster is an ancient demon. A very, very powerful one. We need to destroy it once and for all. Come on!" The dark monkey pushed his student hard, which made the kid look up at him in confusion. "Wait, what?  Last time, I couldn't even hit it!"

Mk couldn't believe what he was hearing. Was he seriously making him fight this thing!?

But at the same time, it's not the first time one of his teachers tasked him to do something he could never think he could do. For example, Sun Wukong telling Mk to beat Bull Demon King.

"yeah, totally. But since then, you've had me teaching you. You're stronger now. Don't you feel stronger?" The monkey smiled innocently at the young kid, who still felt conflicted. Looking at his staff, then at the ground, he mumbled, "I guess."

"Remember. You're the weapon."

Monkie Kid gains confidence as he prepares to attack the monster. "here comes Monkie Kid."

Macaque watches with a smirk as a white monkey suddenly appears behind his figure. She moves to stand right next to him as she uncrosses her arms. "'You're the weapon'? My, my, how inspirational." She mocks.
