Everyone either charged or started shooting at Dharruŋgu Mokuy all at once, in hopes of bringing him down as quickly as possible. Those hopes ended up being somewhat optimistic.
The evil aspect of Sun Wukong cackled wickedly as he started jumping around, forming dark clouds in midair either as platforms to land on or as vertical surfaces to wall-jump off of, his movements swift and astonishingly precise, extending his spear to deflect ranged attacks and strike back.
Estella took a deep breath as she took to the air, trying to stay on her toes (so to speak, anyway) as she tried to give chase, deflecting spear strikes. But every time she tried to get in close, he’d extend the spear at her, forcing her to either dodge, or, more likely, block or take the hit, as she was focused on protecting her more vulnerable areas not covered by the lion pelt. Either way, she’d get pushed back, leaving her only able to fire homing projectiles at him, which he easily outmanoeuvred.
Natalia had to pull out the LUV and get on the machine gun to keep up a rate of fire that Mokuy couldn’t actually deflect. “What the hell’s up with this guy?! He’s fighting us all at the same time!”
“Sun Wukong, before he even began the Journey, single-handedly fought the armies of the Jade Emperor and only the Buddha could stop him,” Estella said, gritting her teeth in frustration as she was pushed back by another spear strike.
Anja snapped, “Then how the hell are we supposed to beat him?!”
Mokuy laughed, as he continued to jump around like a lunatic, “I’d love to see you try! Come on, keep it coming!”
“I… I don’t know,” Estella admitted. Even if he was severely weakened compared to the original, this guy still had most of Sun Wukong’s fighting experience.
Jay’s staff glowed as the air suddenly started getting mistier, confusing Estella for a moment before the mist suddenly began to concentrate around Mokuy, forming a massive bubble of water around him right as he leaped off a cloud, immediately reducing his momentum and causing him to sink. He tried to swim up, but the water bubble just moved with him.
And then the whole bubble was suddenly flash-frozen, causing it to crash to the ground. The ice shattered, but it still weighed him down enough to leave him vulnerable to being sprayed down by Natalia and Florrie, ripping holes in his body, forcing him to raise a stone wall with a quick spell to block the incoming fire for a short time.
“Wukong always had trouble with bodies of water, what with being a ‘stone monkey’ and all,” remarked Jay, “With this deep damp cave, gathering moisture was easy.”
Mokuy snarled, unleashing a fire breath to get rid of the ice and water around him, before he was suddenly jumped by Anja and Sonia, who started slashing at him, sending streaks of black blood flying. Mokuy snarled, spinning his spear, sending red blood flying before slamming the blunt end of the spear into Sonia’s gut to send her tumbling and a kick into Anja’s chest, knocking her back several meters.
Estella dived in the air while that had been going on, dropping right behind him and slashing at his back, hoping to sever his spine in one go. While her holy blade cut deep, Mokuy spun his spear around to stop the blade just before it reached his spine, and turned around, wincing as the blade did more harm in the process, before letting loose fire breath in Estella’s face, forcing her to back off.
He then extended the spear’s length towards Jay, who winced as he raised an ice wall to block it, though the spear did start breaking through. Jay stepped to the side, letting the spear break through as he covered the shaft and the point in a thick layer of ice, before stepping out from behind the wall and firing off a beam of energy, just as Florrie circled around to open fire with micro-missiles as well.
Mokuy had to let go of the spear, letting it melt away as he started forming a second one, leaping away to narrowly avoid the beam and shoot down the incoming missiles, letting out bolts of electricity that stunned Florrie’s suit.
And then Sonia pounced, intercepting him in mid-air and tackling him to the ground, ripping into his neck with her fangs. He managed to kick her off him (resulting in a chunk of his neck being ripped out) and send her flying before Anja jumped him as well, driving her blades into his chest before he ran her through with his spear, hurling her away with it.
Estella had been circling around, looking for a chance to make another strike. She had noticed Mokuy was regenerating. A bit slowly, perhaps, but still faster than she’d like, and certainly faster than when Harlan was in control. Damn it, of course Wukong’s immortality would factor into this fight somehow, she thought to herself.
Natalia drove the LUV around so the wall wasn’t in the way, before stopping and getting back on the machine gun. Mokuy responded by moving out of the way of the incoming fire and extending the spear to damage the gun, disabling it, as well as also striking Natalia, knocking her off the vehicle.
Jay surrounded Mokuy with water again and froze it. Estella pointed her sword at him, firing off a beam of magical energy, and Jay followed suit while their enemy was still stuck in place. Both beams hit their target, erupting into a powerful explosion.
Despite her hopes, Estella could still sense that Mokuy was still standing. And then the smoke was blown away in a burst of intense pressure, as he roared, his body surging with energy while his regeneration rapidly sped up.
“His regeneration requires Energeia, and he can use more of it to speed it up. And he doesn’t have an unlimited supply,” Allagí noted, “Causing enough damage will exhaust him completely.”
Mokuy suddenly grew two extra arms on each side, and two more heads. Estella couldn’t help but find this familiar… Oh, right, Wukong used a form like this to copy Nezha during their battle…
Mokuy formed two swords on his middle arms, and two shields on the bottom set of arms, spinning the swords in his hands. “This has been a fun skirmish, but I’m afraid I’m done playing games with you people. It’s high time I end this.”
Estella decided their best shot was to attack him all at once, firing off another beam as she flew right towards him, “Not if we end this first! Everyone, attack! Don’t give him a chance to pick us off one by one!”
Estella saw the smirk on his face as she, Anja and Sonia attacked them from three sides, while Natalia, Jay and Florrie tried their best to attack at range, hoping to overwhelm him immediately.
Mokuy instead used his weapons to block or deflect the incoming attacks, before going on the attack. His first focus was Anja and Sonia, inflicting more gashes with his swords before slamming their heads together and hurling them across the room right into Florrie with tremendous strength, sending all three of them crashing right into a wall.
Estella managed to get her sword past Mokuy’s guard and run him through. He just grinned, thrust his palm into her face, and unleashed an explosive burst of magical energy, sending her flying across the room, with a damaged invisible helmet and only barely able to keep a grip on Allagí.
Estella groaned as she got up, to see Mokuy rush down Natalia, knock her weapons aside and slam her into the floor, seemingly knocking her unconscious. He then turned to Jay, who was trying to surround him with water again, but he rushed at him astonishingly fast, shrugging off his beams before grabbing him by the head, “I heard that you have some interesting tastes, Hayward. How about a taste of what’s to come, then?”
Jay groaned as he formed a spectral sword from his staff and stabbed him with it, but quickly fell to his knees, his eyes becoming unfocused as they glowed.
Estella snarled, flying right at Mokuy and furiously hacking at his back, but he grabbed her head and started slamming her repeatedly into the floor…
Jay walked the halls of the imperial palace with a sway in her step, smiling as she made her way towards the throne room as visitors and servants oogled her very plump, voluptuous body, clad in a gorgeous red and black silk dress that tightly hugged her figure.
But of course, who wouldn’t so lustfully gaze at one of the Emperor’s concubines?
She made a sly wink to a few of her admirers and shook her huge bubble butt as she reached the doors to her destination, pushing them open.
The Emperor was on his throne, talking to some advisers. He noticed her enter, and dismissed them. “There you are, my dear. Just in time.”
Jay giggled, bowing before her emperor, “I’m always on time when you call, my lord.”
“Good. Today, you will accept my seed, in order to bear my offspring.”
Jay felt a tingle of delight downstairs, restraining the urge to drool. “It would be my honour and pleasure, my lord.”
Jay undid the singular bow on her back, and her dress fell away, revealing her otherwise exposed body.
The Emperor smirked, and his pants melted away, revealing an enormous, throbbing penis that made Jay’s vaginal folds twitch in anticipation. She simply was incapable of taking her eyes off of it.
She fell to her knees, cupping his testicles as she gingerly licked at the tip of his growing erection, using her other hand to stroke it eagerly as she got it up to full mast. When it was ready, she began to suck on it, and the incredible feel and taste was worth the difficulty of taking in such a huge girth into her mouth.
She began to move her head back and forth, deep-throating it as much as she could, stroking the remainder with right hand while she was unable to restrain herself from using her left hand to start masturbating, fingering her already-soaked pussy.
She had finally gotten down to the base when he blew his load, filling her stomach with his virile seed, driving her to orgasm instantly, her brain briefly shutting down from the sheer ecstasy.
The Emperor pulled out, his seed still leaking out, letting it flow onto her tongue, letting her indulge in the thick, salty taste.
When her brain rebooted, she found herself having been picked up and moved into a full nelson position, her legs pinned back by his arms and his dick rubbing against her crotch. She bit her lower lip, anticipating what he was about to do next.
He thrust upwards, plunging his cock deep into her folds, causing her to scream lustfully, wordlessly begging for him to breed her like the eager slut she was. She felt another pair of hands reach out from behind her and fondle her enormous breasts, causing them to squirt milk lewdly onto the floor.
In a moment of lucidity as she was being roughly pounded, she realised the whole court was watching them. And that only added to her excitement.
But the intense fucking was otherwise a blur until his dick practically exploded into her, filling her womb to the absolute brim as her belly expanded outwards, her body shuddering and twitching in pure bliss as she enjoyed a second orgasm.
And much to her delight, her master was not done…
Estella groaned as she tried to stave off the throbbing pain in her head, lying on her back and barely able to move, unable to make out Allagi calling out to her in her head as Mokuy’s hand finally let go of her head.
Mokuy was about to do something, but she wasn’t sure what. Her vision was blurry, and there was ringing in her ears. She just hoped she hadn’t gotten brain damage from that.
Suddenly, she could make out something threading around his arms, and immediately pulling them back. Her vision began to focus, and she realised that Mokuy was startled by this sudden development, and whatever it was attempting to bind him, it looked like… hair?
“Stella! Now!”
Estella finally managed to shake off the pain and the ringing, to see Arika behind Mokuy, her hair restraining him.
She got up onto her feet, and drove Allagi right into Mokuy’s chest, before ripping it upwards, right between two of his heads, resulting in a huge tear in his body.
He snarled, blasting her with flames from one head to force her back, and setting Arika’s hair on fire with his other two. Arika managed to sever the hair before the fire spread to her head.
Mokuy turned to her, “The little witch, eh? Not content to wait outside like the others? Fine, then. You’ll pay the price.”
Arika got out a lighter, and unleashed her own burst of flame at him, covering him in fire, “No matter what happens, you’re done for!”
“Allow me to prove you wrong.”
Estella shook off the flames… and her eyes widened, as she saw Mokuy’s spear shoot outwards, impaling Arika. He lifted her up on the spear, and threw her off of it, flinging her away, leaving a trail of blood that slowly started to pool under her. “ARIKA!”
“If she dies, it is an acceptable loss. Her abilities would potentially undermine my plans,” said Mokuy, turning to Estella with a chuckle, “Now then… Time to finish this. I’ll bring you into the fold, then your sisters, your friends… Everyone you hold dear and more will become part of my paradise.”
Estella snarled, seeing red. That smug attitude, the thoughts of what he would do to everyone if given the opportunity, and the sight of Arika on the floor in a pool of her own blood… It drove her past a threshold she didn’t know she had within herself. “You… YOU ARROGANT…!”
Her Energeia exploded within her, unleashing a fountain of power as she charged, slashing with an untamed fury. Mokuy was a little startled, and even more so when Allagí, further empowered by his knight, snapped the spear shaft and shattered the swords that tried to block him, forcing him to regenerate them as he was forced to back away while she pursued, each strike effortlessly shattering his defences and ripping into his body.
Estella screamed at the top of her lungs as she repeatedly swung her blade, “YOU HURT ARIKA! I WON’T LET YOU HURT OR CONTROL ANYONE ELSE, EVER AGAIN!”
Mokuy tried to blast her with fire again, but it just washed over her like it was a light spray of temperate water. “How is this possible…?! WHAT ARE YOU?!”
Jay smiled as she laid on her side atop her master his chambers as they laid in bed, caressing her swollen, pregnant belly.
Everything since her first breeding had been a blur. But it had been utter ecstasy. And yet, even now, she felt something felt off. Like she had been forgetting something.
A voice whispered in her mind, one completely unfamiliar and unrecognisable to her. “Are you really content to drown in this shallow fantasy? Tsk. I thought the one borrowing my staff would have more willpower than that.”
Ah. That’s right. This was just a wild fantasy, conjured by Mokuy. She was mentally linked to him, keeping it maintained and her mind trapped. Or… his mind? It didn’t matter right now.
She thought about the question the voice asked of her. The answer was immediately obvious.
She sat up, turning towards the Emperor, as she willed a blue, spectral sword to manifest in her hand, raising it above her head. “I’ll admit. The sex was amazing. But I can’t say here. I can’t accept this. I won’t let you win.”
The Emperor blinked. “My dear…? What are you-wait, no!”
She brought the sword down onto his skull.
Mokuy screamed as he clutched his head, stumbling back. Estella wasn’t sure why, but she took the chance to aim for the heads.
Her blade did meet its mark, but it only took off the left head and a hand. Mokuy screamed in agony, trying to retreat.
He ran right into Florrie’s power armour. Florrie grabbed two of the pairs of arms and tore them off, despite the suit being noticeably damaged. “Not so fun now, is it?!”
“GIVE HARLAN BACK!” Anja roared as she and Sonia pounced, ripping off the other side head.
Mokuy leaped into the air, trying to make some distance, but the instant he touched down a fully-charged energy launcher shot hit him, knocking him to the ground. Natalia began walking over, said launcher slung over her shoulder.
Estella pointed Allagi at their enemy, charging up the most powerful magical energy beam she could muster, much like the second campus battle, as a magical circle appeared in front of her. Anja and Natalia rushed to her side, hands forward as they contributed their power to the spell.
Mokuy climbed uneasily back onto his feet, as if he was drunk, but before he could fully rise, his remaining hand and his feet were suddenly frozen to the floor. Estella glanced towards Jay, who was lucid again, and was running to go heal Arika.
Estella fired the spell off, and it slammed into Mokuy, blasting him off his feet and carrying him right into the wall, as it exploded violently.
Estella panted, eyes narrowed. “You lost… because you pissed me off. Nobody hurts my friends and family. Nobody.”
When the smoke cleared, Mokuy was already regenerating quickly through a burst of Energeia, but Estella knew instinctively that he was almost spent. He simply didn’t have enough power to continue this battle. And based on the wide eyes and the snarl, he knew it too. “You’re beaten. Just give up already.”
“No… NO! I will not be contained again!” Mokuy snapped, suddenly dashing for the throne.
The sisters immediately gave chase, as Mokuy suddenly ripped out a chunk of the wall behind the throne, revealing a secret passageway that he immediately jumped into.
“Damn it, he’s making a runner!” Natalia frowned, as they ran (or flew) as fast as they could, pursuing him into the tunnels, heading upwards towards the surface. “How is he still this fast?!”
Anja noted, “Doesn’t matter, we’ll catch up to him one way or another.”
Soon, they could see cracks of light from the end of the tunnel, and Mokuy laughed, as he almost reached it, clearly preparing to shapeshift, “And now, to make my exit. Farewell!”
Suddenly, a huge pillar smashed through the cavern wall, slamming into him and knocking him back.
The trio stopped, surprised, as the pillar shrank down into a staff, as the light streamed in. On the other side, was short but familiar-looking figure, looking almost resplendent in the sun’s light. “Well, well, well, my instincts were right! But I’m not surprised I’d predict what you’d do, eh, ‘me’?”
It was Sun Wukong. The real Sun Wukong, though unlike his evil counterpart, he was only about one and a quarter meters tall. He was squatting, casually spinning the shrunken-down Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, now the size of a pencil, as he looked down on them, with an amused smirk.
Mokuy snarled, “You…”
“Oh, yes, me. Me, me, me,” Wukong said mockingly, “Wow, you certainly look big and buff, huh? Compensating for something, are we? Wow, I’m glad I expelled you from my soul. You’re kinda pathetic.”
Mokuy roared as he charged Wukong, furiously swinging his spear at him, “DON’T YOU DARE MOCK ME!”
Wukong yawned, jumped over the spear, and almost faster than Estella could properly make out, he proceeded to expand his staff, smash the spear and knock the evil spirit onto his back, before smashing his legs with a powerful strike, causing him to scream. “Really? You’re already severely weakened, and we both know how this fight ended last time.”
Mokuy snarled through gritted teeth, “You… I won’t even submit to the likes of-”
“Enough.”
A powerful blast of dragonfire erupted through the tunnel opening, incinerating the spirit’s body, as Mydros came into view, with Akane alongside him. Estella winced as she and her sisters stepped back, bracing themselves from the heat.
What was left was the evil spirit, which Wukong immediately trapped in a small, ornate container, before binding it himself with several loops of thick thread that he tied into a knot. “This time, I’m taking you to the Buddha himself.”
“Are you alright, you three?” Akane asked, coming over and healing their wounds, “He certainly gave you a hard fight.”
Estella took a deep breath, her anger finally subsiding, and putting aside how starstruck she was to properly focus on the situation at hand. “We’re fine, but Arika is badly hurt. Jay’s healing her… I think.”
“Let’s go check on her condition, then… and clean up this mess,” grunted Mydros.
Anja frowned, “But… What happened to Harlan? That body was-”
“Don’t worry, I think I know what happened,” remarked Wukong, as he headed down the tunnel, “That body had no trace of any human elements whatsoever.”
Estella was confused, but they followed him back down to the throne room.
It was there that she saw one thing they hadn’t noticed before - one last cocoon, hidden behind the throne. Wukong ripped it open, revealing the unconscious body of Harlan inside. “And there you have it!”
“So Harlan really was just a victim all along,” sighed Natalia.
Akane nodded, “Indeed, none of the bodies were Harlan’s original body. The spirit was just constructing a brand new vessel for himself over time, and the boy had no idea.”
Mydros grunted, “But that severely complicates how legally culpable he is in all of this.”
Anja sighed, putting her hands on her hips. “I’m just glad he’s okay.”
Estella ran over to Arika, who thankfully was still breathing, and sitting up as Jay healed her, with Sonia and Florrie also with them, worried for her condition. Estella just sighed in relief as she stopped in front of them. “Arika! Oh thank God.”
Arika chuckled weakly, “Hey, ‘Stella. Sorry I worried ‘ya. But at least it made you angry to go berserk like that, so…”
Estella knelt down, “You still nearly died there, though!” She hugged her, “But thanks. You really helped us out there.”
Arika laughed, “I was barely in the fight for like, a minute! What did I do besides restrain him for a moment, get hurt and cause you to lose your shit?”
“Even the smallest contribution can help enormously. I should know,” remarked Wukong, as the others came over, with Anja carrying Harlan in her arms. “Not bad, kids. You beat your first big bad guy, how do ya feel?”
“Like a damn mess,” said Jay, who blinked, “Wait, shit, you’re actually Sun Wukong.”
The Monkey King just laughed, “That’s my name, don’t wear it out! Just here cleaning up my own mess, that’s all.”
Sonia whistled, “Meeting the actual Monkey King. What a world.”
Florrie got out of the power armour, “Yeah, seriously!”
“Okay, kiddos, autographs can come later,” Wukong remarked.
“We’ll deal with the stragglers,” said Mydros, “You young ones should return to the surface and get some rest. You’ve earned it.”
Estella, now on the verge of collapsing, could not agree more.
