"Give us your money, or you'll be sorry" the leader of the group of men growled, waving his weapon around

Tripitaka stared at the robbers trembling to fear. I can't say I felt as much fear as Tripitaka was feeling. But I was worried for how Wukong might deal in this situation..

"I'm s-sorry," Tripitaka spoke out

"But...we're just monks. We don't have any money" Tripitaka stumbled with his words

"Then give us whatever else you have!" Said one robber,

The leader of the robbers looked over to me, his gaze heavy on me and grinned,

As the unsettling feeling made me grow sick, making me uncomfortable but mainly worry

"Fine, if you don't have any money. Give us the girl, a fair trade if you ask me" the group of men cheered for their leaders arrangement

I gulped, worried of what might happen next

"That won't be necessary! Please, we just wish to pass that's all" Tripitaka held his arm across from me, making me worry grow by just a bit

"Hmm, I don't know, sounds pretty fair to me" Wukong joked

"Wukong!" Tripitaka yelled angrily at him

"I'm just kidding! No hard feelings, right Alya?" Wukong asks me

"You're a jerk!" I yelled over to him, my teeth gritted at what he just agreed to. Even if he was joking, one of the men stuck their tounge out. Nodding a little too excitedly

'Disgusting.'

"Hey hey Alya, no need for language" Tripitaka calmly said to me

"You heard the little fella!" One of the robbers yelled, coming in closer towards us

Tripitaka and I backed away, now afraid of what might happen next. Wukong lifted his arm up, stopping them from getting any closer to us. Mainly towards me,

"I'll deal with these robbers, Master" Wukong said,

Before approaching the men. They all howled in a pit of laughter at the sight of Wukong

"Look at the little monkey! Whatcha gonna do? Throw a banana?" Said one of them, laughing even harder. But soon stopped as they heard Wukong laughing as well

"Yes, I am a monkey. And I am rather small, it's true" he said before removing his iron bar out from his ear.

"But you just made a very bad mistake."

His iron bar grew, as his eyes flashed red with anger. As his stance became powerful and violent. Seeing almost red smoke coming out from him

Me and Tripitaka gulped in worry on what's about to happen next as we see the group of men yelp in fear

"The monkey is a spirit!" Cried one of the men, as they all turned their back. Tried to run away but failed as they tumbled down ontop of eachother

Wukong walked over to the group of robbers slowly, as he raised the iron bar, ready to strike

"Stop, Wukong!" Tripitaka cried him, wanting him to stop on what he was about to do

"Don't hurt them"

Wukong turned his head around as the men ran away into the forest, as their footsteps were soon gone. I sigh in relief

"Why not?" Asked Wukong, letting his iron bar touch the ground

"They were going to hurt us, not only were they going to rob us. They were about to kidnap Alya, you're friend" Wukong said, making a few pointers

"A Buddhist monk never hurts people, I would rather get hurt to protect Alya than hurt someone else" he said,
