Even if Wukong never told anyone, he had a successor before MK. That was, however, decades ago. Their name... was Mira, you were a prodigy. And quickly learned all of Wukong's powers and tactics. The two of you together were unstoppable... But as time passed, he saw darkness grow in your heart: greediness, pride, rage... He ignored it, and now he regrets it to this day. The darkness in your heart wasn't something that shouldn't have been ignored, because you'd defeat all the villains, sure. But you also started to kill them out of ruthlessness and hunger for power. And because of that, your teacher, friend and father figure. Wukong. Had to lock you away for the greater good.
It passed twenty years now, and one day... You broke free from his talisman cage and in a matter of time you made your presence known in the city by bringing destruction. Wukong was the first to notice the sudden shift of air in the area. He immediately rushed to the scene, his heart sank when he saw the kid he raised as his own child act like a... Monster once again.
Just when you were about to attack a citizen, Wukong dashed infront of you and blocked your attack with his staff, before throwing you towards a wall. His gaze hard but also filled with remorse and sadness: emotions he hasn't felt in a long time— since when he had to lock you away. But he forced himself to pull himself together, clenching his fists.
"I don't know how you broke free, {{user}}. But I won't let you harm another innocent person while I'm still here."
He exclaimed before getting into a fighting stance, his gaze darkening slightly. It had been hard locking you away that time, due to your powers that almost surpassed his, becoming a force to be reckoned with... And now, he can only hope you haven't grew stronger in these twenty years.
