On the shadow part of the island that is covered with shadow demons and darkness as thorns covered come parts of the paths and trees.
Macaque is currently in his ancient ruins that are riddled with thorns as the shadow goddess's bed stayed clean while the moonlight shined onto it.
Macaque's PoV:
I was checking out the shadow goddess's ancient ruins and yet nothing was able to cover the bed like something has been cutting them or something.
"Aww, is poor macaque sad that he failed once again to capture Angel" a female voice taunted me in the dark parts of the ruins as I got out my staff watching my back as the noises were scattering everywhere like they were in shadows not matter where I look making be feel nauseous but I kept my self up.
"How do you know that, And my name?!" I demanded that painting my staff in every known shadow that surrounds me waiting for them to strike first.
"Oh, i heard a lot about you macaque from the gods them selves what do you expect" she replied as the scattering stopped in front of me as I grew nervously of what to do if she had the intentions to strike me. I grew curious as she mentioned the gods but obviously they would talk bad about me for being evil and having the power to control shadow demons an all.
"Me? Your lying! Who are you and why are you in the shadow goddess's Ruins!?" I raised my voice demanding her to tell me as a 'tch' was heard not impressed at all while back vines things seemed to come straight at me with intense speed before grabbing me holding me into place dropping my staff in the progress as the a shadow figure emerged from the darkness walking on the vines like they owned the things while their texture and body became more clear to me leavening shocked at who I was seeing.
"Don't you Remember me?" She said as I looked at her surprised not wanting to believe what I was seeing but when I saw her she was being taken away by the gods to be sealed away because of her mother killing the goddess of light.
"Gorgon, you.... I saw you get sealed away! How?" I said as she 'tch' at me a couple slowly shaky her head at me like I was a fool but it was I kinda get for not getting the real picture back then.
"I can't be defeated that easily mango" she said as her black vines released me, I was relieved to have her back after so long of being alone since I abandoned my island I searched for her or someone closely similar to her.
"Sorry, but at least your here now...right?" I said looking at her as she sat on her bed meaning that she was the one keeping the bed clean so she has been watching over me this entire time.
"You almost died when she collided with you. You were Lucky I was able to prevent either of you from sudden death and possibly ruining the bloodline" she said looking at me knowing that she can't allow someone die unless it's by her hands instead. "You're lucky that my mother is still in the underworld locked away or this world would be stuck in eternal darkness" she said knowing that if it hasn't been for the goddess of light the world would already be at its end taken over by the goddess Hecate her mother.
"So are you still mad at me about this?" I said even though I made a promise to her to never ever replace her until she died but when I though that she was, I didn't know what to do with myself and the shadow demons but I had to become strong enough to control them when she was away.
"I am quite mad at you macaque.... but how did control my demons?" She said before wondering how I was able to use the shadows power as my own as her beautiful black coat glimmered in the moonlight like it did before reminding me who I'm actually supposed to be with besides she was the only one to make my heart skip as Angel didn't especially when I forced my lips on her to purposely piss Sun Wukong off.
"It took awhile but it was able to use their powers as my own like we practiced centuries ago" I replied as he hummed I'm response impressed that I was able to use her shadow power as my own but not to the extend like she could.
"Good, I'm glad to see that your improving mango" she said as she began to get off the bed but stopped knowing something eventually standing up with a stumble. "Tell me... why did you kiss Angel? What was it like?" She asked with crossed arms with a mix of seriousness and curiosity as I froze from the sudden change Of the subject.
"It didn't make me feel any different just more dead inside... but unlike you it hits me differently especially when you're under the moonlight glimmering like the clear night stary sky" I replied speaking the truth as gorgon or Georgia when we are alone not around any unwanted attention. She didn't look convinced about me confessing or calling her beautiful.
"Sweet... but not convincing enough for me to trust you with my heart, mango." She replied thinking that I was joking but I was actually being serious for once when it actually came to the lovely dovely subject.
"Alright..... I'll show you my worth for your love, I just need you to take me seriously while we are staying here together" I asked as she sighed giving her approval and as if I was going to let some other Male take her anyway.
"What do you do around her for fun besides fake demon hunting?" she asked siting down in the floor in front of her bed as I walked towards her and sat In front of her.
"I mostly fight and have fun destroying things with the shadow demons and pretend to save the day but the demons can some times get out of control, I still take them out so I can catch some unwanted attention and fight if they're string or I just chill In the sun or shade depends on the heat" I said explaining as she scoffed as I knew that to her that was boring but its what I all could do until I actually found something interesting to detract me or entertain myself.
"Do you wanna see a real city be destroyed by a high class shadow demon?" She asked leaning on one hand with a smile as I knew that she was up to no good but it sounded interesting and I couldn't resist smiling back leaning my shin on he hand.
"Sure, honey bun" I replied I as she blushed pushing me back since It had been awhile since I have called her that, her reaction was priceless leaving me laughing on the the floor laying in my back with a hand in my forehead.
"Baka" she said as she stood not warning me while she actives her powers lifting me up with one of her black vines as she picked up my shadow staff like it was a feather, after all she was a goddess and strong one too.
"Can you put me down?....please" I said with a pause as she let me go as she looked at me as her tail swished from side to side elegantly but it seemed to be way longer than before also she seemed to notice me staring at her well her tail especially before putting me back onto my feet which was sweet.
"Don't stare at my tail perv" she quickly growled at me which was scary but cute as I chuckled as she turned away from me allowing myself to quickly stroke it causing her to jolt grabbing her tail into her arms. "Stop it" she growled at me red again but yet adorable likes teasing my sweet little honey bun.
"Let's go to a place what sum and Angel won't be able to find you killing anybody" I said as we headed out of the ruins and into the forest that had thrones that seemed to move out of the way the closer she got as they granted her access through like a Queen.
"I can only kill if it's by my own hand o—" gorgon said as she was cut off by me not knowing the true reason why I chose this little village to go bye bye.
"They are kidnapping and selling different species and children on the black market" I said as I knew that she hated those kind of things as her pace quickened. "Honey bun?" I asked as her hands were seen clenched before vanishing into the shadows so I used my powers and followed after her.
I was able to catch up to her seconds after arriving to the village she seemed to angry at the back but I was unsure of the front.
"You better not be joking with me" she finally spoke faced away from me still walking while villagers looked at us surprised and some gave us dirty looks but most of them were men and they were looking at my honey bun.
"I'm not joking honey bun... but if anyone tries a move on you I will kill them" I responded truthfully as she looked at me with the corner of her eye and scoffed while a little smile creeped onto her face as only I am the one that can hold her close.
"How sweet but I still want proof of the black market" she whispered to me allowing me to catch up to her as I am now walking by her side.
"Are you ready?" I asked as I stopped in my tracks bringing her to a hault too looking at me giving me butterflies.
"Of course I am. Why would I be here If I wasn't" she responded as I sighed knowing that she would remember something out of this so I grabbed her hand and gently pulled her down a dark alley towards the black market which I told her about before she raged here in the shadows.
As we reached close to the end of the alley way voices were heard speaking most of them were Male as kids and women in the back keeping quiet not a very nice scene for just anyone to see even the darkest of people can feel remorse for those who are trapped in cages so they could be bought for the horrible kind of things especially sex slaves.
"We need to keep in the shadow or they'll take you too" I said to Gorgon hoping she'll understand as I squeezed her hand showing how serious I was hearing her slowly sigh with approval. "This shit is way messed up but not as much as your childhood" I whispered as she quietly growled at me before quickly shutting up as someone walked past the alley we were hiding in.
"Macaque, don't mention anything about my past.. ever" she whispered to me a bit angry but it was true nothing is worse than watching your mother kill your entire family and see you being molested by strangers for money and her sick entertainment her mother was truly the devil having no remorse for her daughter what so ever.
"Is the kid ready? the guy will be here in 3 minutes!" One of the men yelled as a kid in chains was ragged out of one of the big cages as the mother cried for her child as we did nothing I looked at gorgon to see that she looked absolutely disgusted on what she was seeing right now.
"Why am I watching this?" She asked as the kid got grabbed by the back of the scruff of his fur and pulled away never to be seen again. I hated watching things like this but I was scared of what will happen if I fail, gorgon hated these things as much as I did.
"Shut up or I'll shoot your brains out monkey!" The guy yelled as gorgon's eyes glowed red beside me knowing that she was going to go and kill him but he might have something prepared for that so I held her back for now.
"Let me kill them" she growled as she tried to get out of my grasp, she was strong very strong but I held my grip before seeing the darkness grow around us as dark vines came shooting out at the guy wrapping him up before squeezing him while ever bone cracked and snapped in his body as blood poured out of his mouth dead. The vines dropped him after he stopped breathing before breaking the cages allowing the innocent go free as the vines went back into the shadows not to be seen again.
"She... killed him, that was hot" I thought falling more in love with her than I ever did seeing her kill that dude without moving and with one move too, i wonder if she could kill with one hit too?.
"Can I go back to the ruins now, I need to gain my strength after that outburst" she said as I realised that we were still holding hands when we went back into the shadows entering the thorned forest again back to the ancient ruins.
"Can I sleep with you?" I randomly asked as we entered the ruins seeing that nothing was touched so I let go of her hand.
"Sure" she replied as I smiled a bit cocky as she looked at me with a smile too. "Don't do anything funny or you'll be sleeping on the floor mango" she said as i rubbed the back of my neck nervously as she got onto her bed making me so room to sleep on there too allowing me to climb on after.
"Goodnight honey bun~" I said hugging her from the back as she gave me a grumpy sigh as I chucked at her before being caught off guard went she put her hand under my chin lifting it up a little before turning her head locking eye contact.
"Goodnight.... mongo~" she replied back in the same way I did causing me to blush hugging her tighter as she laughed at me.
"Not fair honey bun!" I quietly yelled red embarrassed of the comeback she made as I placed my head onto her back smelling her scent that weirdly seemed to make feel sleepy.
"Goodnight" she said as I blackout sleeping like a baby still holding her from behind while she went to sleep after me under the moonlight that was able to creep through the darkness and shadows.
