| The End is Here! << Revenge of the Spider Queen >> Sleep Bug |
Happy New Year[]
(MK and Monkey King are fighting in the Monkey King's training grounds.)
MK: You call this a training session? I've barely broken a sweat.
Monkey King: A battle's no place to be arrogant, you gotta stay humble.
MK: Says you? (He fights and puts Monkey King near the edge.) Hah, who's gotta be humble now?
Monkey King: Hmm. Still you.
(Monkey King kicks the staff off of MK. The Golden Staff launches to the mountain, forming rocks.)
MK: Oh boy. (The rocks fall on MK.)
Monkey King: Ok, class commencing, how'd I win?
MK: Uh, you buried me under a rock slide?
Monkey King: Yes, but why were you standing in the way of a rock slide?
MK: 'Cause you put me there!
Monkey King: No, no, no, no, no, no. I got you where I wanted you by putting myself where you wanted me, it's called misdirection.
MK: Seems like a shady lesson.
Monkey King: Too soon, buddy.
MK: Ugh, I'm never gonna be as good as you.
Monkey King: Not with that attitude. Class dismissed!
MK: Yes! I better hit it, I was supposed to meet Mei and the others for the fes— (Monkey King throws a pillow at MK while he sets up for the New Year's.) Hey! Whoa. How long have you been preparing this?
Monkey King: Come on, it's New Year's, bud. Let's watch the fireworks.
MK: Oh, love to but I really should get back to my... friends. (Monkey King looks back towards the sky. MK sighs and then sits down with him.) Sure.
(In Megapolis, people are celebrating the New Year's. Mei is helping fold the dumplings at Pigsy's Noodles.)
Mei: I feel like this would be easier if I had fingers.
Pigsy: (He hands a bowl to someone.) Thank you! Great happiness and prosperity this Lunar New Year!
Tang: Mei, is it just me or does Pigsy seem more.. stressed than normal? Isn't MK meant to be working today?
Pigsy: YES TANG HE IS!!! WHERE IS THAT PUNK CAUSE HE SURE AIN'T HERE!!!
Mei: He's training with the Monkey King. He said, "New year! New MK! I'm gonna take my training to a whole new level!" (She has demonstrated with a broom.)
Tang: Wow.
Pigsy: Give me that! (He snatches the broom and breaks it in two.) "New year, new MK." Keep going like this, he's gonna be newly unemployed! I mean it! If MK don't get here soon— (He screams.)
Sandy: (He appears with goodies and dumps them all on Pigsy.) Good cheer and happy new year! Look at all these delicious little goodies! I got enough to share!
Mei: Ooh! Thanks, Sandy!
Sandy: So uh, where's MK?
Pigsy: (He pops out of Sandy's pile.) Would you guys please screw around somewhere else?! I got a business to run so if you ain't gonna help, go bother some other noodle shop owner! (An orange rolls off through the sewer slits into the lair of the Spider Queen's lab.)
Spider Queen: Ugh, keep laughing. Just wait 'till you see what I've got cooking, then you'll have something to celebrate. Only one hair left. (Flashback goes back to Noodles or Death when she took pieces of MK's hair.) This little piece of that Monkie Kid holds all the power I need. You finished tinkering yet?
Syntax: I have constructed what you asked for. The delivery systems are operational, so long as the venom works this time.
Spider Queen: The venom will work. (She goes over and drops the last piece of MK's hair into the cauldron. MK's power activates a spider bot, which hatches but immediately explodes.) No. No! No!!! I am the queen! I am meant to rule this world! Not hide beneath it! It... can't be over.
Voice: It doesn't have to be.
Spider Queen: Who— Who said that? (She looks both ways and sees a shadow on the wall.) Show yourself!
Lady Bone Demon: My apologies. (She appears from the shadows.) I just... thought I might be of service.
Spider Queen: Service, huh? Who are you?
Lady Bone Demon: I am merely someone who thinks the great Spider Queen has been absent from her throne for too long. I believe that once your rise, a thing even the Celestial Host cannot achieve will be inevitable: The final destruction of the Monkey King.
Spider Queen: Well, don't you have a sweet way of talking? Monkey King tore me from my throne, took everything I had! What makes you think it's so easy?
Lady Bone Demon: I thought maybe we could use... this.
Spider Queen: My, my, my... I haven't seen one of these for a while.
Lady Bone Demon: May I? (She approaches the cauldron and pours in a potion. The substance turns blue and another spider-bot hatches. This time, it does not explode.)
Spider Queen: Well, well, well. Looks like you have your uses after all. (She eyes Syntax.) Let's give it a spin.
Syntax: Wait, no— I helped you! You need me!
(Syntax screams as the spider-bot overtakes him. He is transformed into a Spider Demon and bows before the Spider Queen.)
Spider Queen: Now that's more like it! Okay, Little Miss Mystery, what's the catch?
Lady Bone Demon: I simply wish to see you fill your destiny, my Queen. (She bows before her.)
Spider Queen: Well, alright then. (She summons the rest of her spider army.)
(Up above, a parade is happening.)
Mei: Oh, man! MK's really missing out on all these awesome floats! There's the dragon! There's the monkey!
Sandy: Yeah and there's the spider!
Tang: Spider? Pfft. There's no spider in the zodiac. It's probably just an eight-legged rooster or a— (They soon see a spider float.)
(One of the spider-bots toggles the lever and the tarp flies into the air, revealing the Spider Queen and her army.)
Mei, Pigsy, Tang, and Sandy: Spider Queen!
Spider Queen: Would you look at that? Everyone here to celebrate the Year of the Spider! Go let them know their Queen is back.
(Everyone runs off, screaming. Unfortunately, the spider demons and bots catch up and infect everyone. Meanwhile, the Spider Queen shoots our webs and activates her Spider mech.)
(Back on Flower Fruit Mountain.)
MK and Monkey King: Happy New Year! Fireworks!
Monkey King: Over a millennia and fireworks are still the best thing humans have invented! (He pulls out a piece of fur and makes an illusionary box of treats out of it.)
MK: Uh. Am I eating hair right now?
Monkey King: It's better not to think about it.
MK: (He immediately spits out all the hair, while the fireworks have gone out.) What happened to the fireworks? (He and Monkey King use their Gold Vision and see the Spider Queen destroying the city.) The city!
Monkey King: The fireworks! (MK gives him an unamused look.) Oh, uh, also people getting hurt. I guess.
MK: (He whips out his staff.) Alright, I'll go take care of business. (He leaps off but Monkey King grabs him and tosses him on to his back.) Whoa! What?
Monkey King: Nobody messes with my New Year's. Let's go! (They fly off and arrive at the city.) Huh. Guess Spider Queen finally crawled out of her cesspit.
MK: Huh? (He suddenly notices the spider-bots and freaks out, crawling all over Monkey King.) Spider! No, get them away from me! Get them away!
Monkey King: Get off, MK! (He puts him down on a roof.)
MK: Wait! What are you—
Monkey King: (Sighs.) If you can't handle a little spider, how are you meant to help me with that? I'll handle this one, bud. You're staying tight.
MK: Wait! I-I can still— (Monkey King blasts off.) help...
(Monkey King lands down where Spider Queen is waiting for him.)
Spider Queen: Oh, Monkey King! Well, isn't this a nice surprise? Finally come out of hiding just to see me?
Monkey King: Didn't know you were so desperate for attention, Spider Princess.
Spider Queen: It's Spider Queen, subhuman.
Monkey King: Whatever.
Spider Queen: Thought I'd have to deal with the kid before I got to you but since you're here, I can destroy you first!
(Spider Queen attacks. Meanwhile, MK has used his staff and lands clumsily on the mech. He uses his Gold Vision to see what's happening.)
Monkey King: Give it up, Princess. You're too easy to read. (He hears whispers in the opposite direction and charges toward the sound. He throws a punch but is stopped midair by Lady Bone Demon, who dodges his fist.)
MK: Monkey King! (Lady Bone Demon releases him, throwing him off balance.)
Spider Queen: As easy as a fly. (She uses her webs to capture Monkey King from behind.)
Monkey King: (Mockingly.) "Oh no! A web" You seriously think this can keep me— (He yells as his powers are sucked out from him.) What is this?!
Spider Queen: Finally. After all these years, you're mine. (She laughs and powers up the base, tossing MK off.)
Lady Bone Demon: Congratulations on your victory, my Queen.
Spider Queen: My special webs will continue to steal Monkey King's power until he's nothing more than a dried up husk. Nothing and no one will be able to stop me.
MK: Oh, no.
Year of the Spider[]
(Elsewhere, at Demon Bull King and Red Son's food stand...)
Shoe Store Assistant: Your food might have permanently damaged my taste buds! (He opens his mouth and fire comes out. He bangs the service bell repeatedly.) Why would you ever sell anything this hot?!
Red Son: (He stops his hand and smiles.) Oh, dear customer. The spice level was no mistake. I, Red Son, have devised the perfect culinary experience. (He pulls down a chart.) If you would direct your attention down at this chart here, it clearly ranks the spice level from "Very Hot" to "INFERNO!" You ordered "Very Hot." So...
Shoe Store Assistant: But it's the lowest one!
Red Son: Oh so I guess I meant to make barbecue for peasants with little, unworthy, disappointing taste buds that shame their fathers. Is that it, huh?!
Shoe Store Assistant: (He grabs Red Son's shirt and shoves his own face into his.) Look, I want to speak to the manager.
Red Son: Fine, fine. It's your funeral. (He shows him the manager who growls at him.)
Shoe Store Assistant: Uh I-I actually didn't need taste buds anyway so thank you for your service and have a prosperous and fulfilling New Year. (He runs away, screaming.)
Red Son: Father, you can't just scare away every single customer that complains. This is our chance at something great!
Demon Bull King: Great?! I am the Demon Bull King! What would you have me be? The King of Street Food?!
Red Son: Well, yes? I mean, after you recent humiliating defeat, I thought a fresh start was exactly what we needed. Just you and me working together, Father and Son! No evil plans, no talking bones. (Demon Bull King growls.) Sorry, fresh wound.
Demon Bull King: Enough! I may have failed as conqueror, but I will not be made a fool. (The spider mech arrives and destroys their stall behind him.)
Red Son: Um, Father? (Demon Bull King turns to look and is immediately snatched by webs.) Father! (A Spider-Bot launches at him and gets into a tussle, before he burns it up. The case of the venom lands in his hand. He runs off and pulls off the covers to his Inferno Jet.) Sorry, Father. I will come back! (He blasts off.)
Demon Bull King: What? (He struggles to free himself.) What is this?! Who dares...
Spider Queen: (She drops down from above.) Why, me, of course.
Demon Bull King: I have truly fallen if one such as you can best me: The would-be Queen of Spiders.
Spider Queen: Ain't nothing would-be about it. I am the Spider Queen. And you? Nothing but a battery for my mech. Look around, handsome. You're not the only prize I snapped up. Every one of them is just dying to give me their power.
Demon Bull King: (He gasps and looks around.) Princess Iron Fan?
Spider Queen: Aw, don't worry. Haven't caught your wifey — yet. (She directs his face towards someone else.) I did manage to track down an old friend of yours.
Monkey King: 'Sup, Bull King. You too, huh?
Demon Bull King: Monkey King! (He growls and continues to strain against the webs while Spider Queen looks on. Syntax and Huntsman arrive at the door.)
Syntax: My Queen, I have news regarding Red—
Huntsman: Ahem, my Queen. (He interrupts and steps in front of Syntax.) I have news regarding Red Son.
Demon Bull King: (He stops struggling and grumbles.) Useless offspring.
Spider Queen: Mhm. Go on.
Huntsman: He actually uh... got away. (Spider Queen frowns while Demon Bull King finally processes the information.)
Demon Bull King: I didn't doubt him for a second. You will never catch him!
Spider Queen: Ugh. Find him. Now!
Huntsman: Yes, my Queen.
Lady Bone Demon: My Queen, what of the Monkey King's protégé. Perhaps, he should join his master. (Monkey King growls.)
Spider Queen: Yeah, and the boy too! I can't have these problematic children running around, causing me problems!
(Teng, Mei, Pigsy, and Sandy have escaped to the edge of the city to Sandy's boat.)
Tang: Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Mei: What about MK?
Pigsy: MK's with Monkey King. He's safer than anyone. (Sandy starts up the boat.)
Tang: Trying to get away from the spiders and we're in the middle of the o— (Tons of Spider-Bots are revealed.) cean? (The boat dies.)
Mei: Um, Sandy? We gotta get going soon.
Sandy: Don't do this to me. (The control burst into flames. He puts it out with the extinguisher.) I don't usually have this problem. Honest.
Tang: We're all gonna die.
(Meanwhile, Red Son is trying to reach the edge of the city but Syntax has found him.)
Syntax: Target acquired. (He fires up all the cannons in the base and shoots them at Red Son. He manages to escape all but one.)
Huntsman: Now, now, my pets. Be patient. Daddy's gonna have his fun.
Mei: Uh, Sandy?
Pigsy: Get us out of here!
Sandy: Uh, working on it! (He searches for something down in the boat.) Uh here, oh there!
Hunts: It's not so bad if you go quietly. The transition will be almost painless.
Pigsy: (Mei and Pigsy have taken stance.) We can handle one of her lackeys. (Strong Spider emerges.) Two of her lackeys? Oh boy. (Huntsman and Strong Spider prepare to fight when MK falls out of the sky.)
MK: Guys! You're okay! I thought you've been turned into gross spider thingies. They're. Everywhere! (He trembles, hugging the staff.) I can still feel them crawling all over me.
Pigsy: Kid, focus!
MK: Yep! Working on it! (He calms himself and faces the spider demons again.)
Huntsman: We found the Monkey King's apprentice, exactly where you said he'd be.
MK: Oh, no. (He runs off to the boat and the others pull him up. The spider-demons race towards them.)
Pigsy: Sandy! It's now or never, old buddy!
Sandy: (He finds a remote.) Found it! (He zips outside and presses it. A meow is heard.)
Mei: Uh, Sandy?
Sandy: Give it a minute! (A boom is heard and the Team Dronecopter flies over.)
Huntsman: They can't escape! (Sandy tosses everyone aboard but not before Huntsman throws on a tracker. They zoom off.)
Sandy: So, what do you guys think? Been saving it for a rainy day.
Mei: Real cool, Sandy! It's awesome for taking in... the horrifying vistas.
MK: Spider Queen captured Monkey King.
Sandy: No!
Pigsy: (Simultaneously.) What?
Tang: (Simultaneously.) That's not possible!
MK: Yeah, her and this weird skeleton thing, she got him and then I-I didn't even try to help. He lost and then—
Mei: It's okay, MK. We got this. We can beat her—
MK: She beat the Monkey King, Mei! We don't got this! I'm sorry, I just— I don't what to do.
Pigsy: Kid, no one ever does. Not really.
Mei: But we're going to figure this out.
Tang: Together.
Sandy: That's right, little man. Just as soon as we deal with that! (Red Son falls out of the sky towards them, screaming.)
Tang: Incoming!
(Sandy punches the jet, busting it into pieces.)
MK: Red Son?! (Sandy drops him.)
Mei: Get him!
Red Son: No— (They all pounce on him anyways.) Get off me, you filthy peasants!
MK: What are you doing here, Red Son?
Mei: Yeah, spill! You one of the Spider Queen's henchmen now, huh?
Red Son: Henchmen? (He seethes and throws everyone off him.) Not that any of you would care but my father was captured by that eight-legged freak! So, if you'll excuse me, I'll just steal this ship and be on my way.
MK: Wait, what?! That's not—
Red Son: Ugh, fine! Will you let me steal your ship so I can go save my father and also the world from this spider menace, please?
Mei: Are you serious?!
MK: (Simultaneously.) You can't steal the ship!
Sandy: (Simultaneously.) Pretty convincing.
Red Son: Well, I can't use mine! It's busted! One thing I do have is this. (He pull out a vial.) The Spider Queen's venom. It's turned everyone into her slaves but I can make an antidote. However, I'll need supplies and the only place to get them is. (He points up.)
MK: (He looks up in wonder.) Space.
Red Son: No, you Noodle Brain! The Celestial Realm!
Tang: The Celestial Realm?! The realm of heavenly deities and immortal beings?! (Pigsy tugs Tang back.)
Red Son: Sure.
MK: So if you get to spa— uh the Celestial Realm, you can fix all of this?
Pigsy: Kid, you're not really considering this, are you?
MK: Well...
Mei and Pigsy: WHAT?!
Mei: MK, are you serious?! It's Red... Boy!
Pigsy: He's literally a demon!
Red Son: Oh, pretty rich coming from Pig Man and the blue thing! (MK considers the options as they fight.)
Mei: Don't you dare talk about my friends like that!
Sandy: (Simultaneously.) Hey, what'd I do?
Red Son: I'm not even gonna start on you, Dragon Girl!
MK: Let's help him.
Mei, Pigsy, Red Son, and Tang: Huh?
MK: What other choice do we have? Look, Spider Queen won't see this coming. It's the best plan we've got. So I say let's help a demon rob the Celestial Realm.
(Mei, Pigsy, and Red Son glare at each other.)
Celestial Realm[]
(Red Son is finishing up a spell.)
Red Son: Hmm.
Tang: So, how exactly does this work?
Red Son: Ugh. If I tried to explain mystical interdimensional travel to a bunch of peasants, it'd melt your brains!
MK: We don't have any other option. We have to trust him.
Red Son: Great speech, Noodle Boy. Super motivational. (He commences his dramatic preparation to open up the portal but is interrupted.)
Tang: Uh, are we sure mortals can travel to the Celestial Realm, yes?
Red Son: Of course they can! (He continues but is stopped again.)
Pigsy: Safely?
Red Son: Sure. Probably.
MK, Mei, Pigsy, and Tang: Probably?! (They fly through the portal anyways.)
Red Son: I did say it'd melt your brains. (He points at Sandy's hair, which is on fire, but it goes out as he sees the realm.)
Tang: The Celestial Realm.
Pigsy: So some special pills, a fancy peach, and a furnace. Where are we gonna find these things?! (They all look at Red Son, who doesn't have an answer.)
Mei: (Gasps.) Red Boy doesn't know!
Red Son: I know they're somewhere! I'm a demon! It's not like I've been here before.
Tang: Well, in the legend, Monkey King said stole—
Sandy: Stole? That's not the Monkey King I know.
Tang: Borrowed the Peaches of Immortality from the Heavenly Orchard so unless they did the sensible thing and moved them, they'll still be there! The pills of the Great Master Lao Tzu, Monkey King stole— uh, borrowed some of those too, they must be in Lao Tzu's alchemy lab.
Red Son: And what about the furnace? I can't make anything without that.
Tang: It could be there in the lab, but my guess is it will be in the Jade Emperor's throne room.
MK: Wait, what?
Mei: Huh?
Red Son: Alright, then. I'll be off to grab that peach. Toodles! (He leaps off but Mei grabs him.)
Mei: What? Like, we just let you wander off on your own? (Red Son escapes her grip.)
Red Son: (He pats her head.) You just wait here like an obedient, little— (Mei bites his hand.)
Mei: (Grits her teeth.) No, I'm keeping you where I can see you! (Red Son tries to swing her off.)
Pigsy: I'll go for the pills. Uh, they're just regular-looking pills, right? Round-kind-of-shaped-like pills? You know, like normal pills?
Tang: I better come, too.
MK: And I'll get the furnace.
Pigsy: On your own? I don't know if that's a good idea.
Tang: The throne room's too well-guarded. (MK leaps off, without any consideration.)
Sandy: You guys get the items and get back here as fast as you can. I'll stay here and knock some sense into the engines. (The gang has split up while Sandy works out the engines.) I'm helping. (He sees Mo with the spider tracker.) What you got there, Mo? Some kind of ominously beeping spider-themed tracker? (Mo taps it and it explodes, sending off a signal.) Uh, I'm sure it's fine. (Down below, the spider henchmen have located their vehicle.)
(MK has arrived at the footsteps of the temple.)
MK: Wow. (He walks up the steps.) Guess this is the throne room. (Unbeknownst to him, the lion statues activate.) Whoa. I knew this place was gonna be big but wow! (A furnace is being lowered to the middle of the room.) There it is! Well, that was easy. (Two Lion Guardians appear behind him.) Uh, nice giant monster dogs? (He panics and hops inside the furnace. The cover starts to close on him.) Wait! No, no, no, no, no! (The cover closes on him.)
(Mei and Red Son are sneaking into the orchard.)
Mei: So, I heard you helped MK beat your dad.
Red Son: That was one time! My father, the Great Demon Bull King, was... not himself. But in no other instance would I ever assist that sorry excuse for a hero.
Mei: But you're totally assisting right now. (Gasps.) You are a hero!
Red Son: Huh?
Mei: Red Son. Red Son. Hero of the city. Saving Dads. Saving the world. Saving spicy barbecue one bite at a time. Buy two, get one free.
Red Son: Would you give me that!? Let's just get this peach—
Mei: (She takes Red Son for a vlog shoot.) Mei and Red Son, heroes on a quest! Okay. Let's go!
Red Son: (He's left glaring at her.) I just decided, she's next on my hit list.
(Tang is gawking at everything in the lab.)
Tang: Every item is just brimming with untold, dangerous power! (He knocks something over.)
Pigsy: Tang! Stop screwing around!
Tang: Hmm, Lao Tzu's pills. If I know anything about the legends, they won't be easy to find.
Pigsy: Is it them?
Tang: (He screams, examining them.) That's them! (He calms himself.) Ahem, yes.
Pigsy: Great! Let's get going! (Their celebration is cut.)
Huntsman: What's the rush, little piglet? (He tosses a net at them, to which they narrowly escape and run off, screaming.)
(Meanwhile, MK is stuck in the furnace. Alone.)
MK: There is no way I can do this. I can't do anything on my own. (Something glows to his right.) Monkey King, I knew you'd— (The glow settles to his own reflection.) Oh. Perfect, perfect! Just who I need! Useless MK! What have you got to say, huh?
Reflection MK: Um, that's not how mirrors work.
MK: Ooh, ooh, what? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I'm going crazy. Yep.
Reflection MK: Stop that. Listen. Every time we get in trouble, we turn to Monkey King or our friends or someone. They tell us a story and we find that smidge of motivation we need. Well, now we're on our own. It's just... you. (MK looks at his staff.)
(Mei has lifted Red Son to get the peach.)
Mei: Hey, remember when you went crazy racing for a fake one of these things?
Red Son: I remember when you wrecked my car. (He's grabbed a peach.)
Mei: Eh, we wreck a lot of stuff.
Red Son: Oh, well, that was easy. (They crash into Strong Spider.)
Strong Spider: Well, well. You and your little girlfriend are coming with me.
Mei: His—
Red Son: Girlfriend?! Flaming Fist of Dignity! (He shoots a flame into his face.)
Strong Spider: You got me in my favorite eye! (He punches and Mei dodges and then darts off with Red Son still on her shoulders.) Hey, get back here with that stone fruit!
Red Son: Let. Me. Down! (Trees fly as Strong Spider chases them.)
Mei: There's no time!
(Huntsman is searching for Pigsy and Tang in the lab.)
Huntsman: Here, Piggy, piggy.
Pigsy: Oh, we gotta do something.
Tang: Hmm. (He searches the shelves.) Hmm. Ah. (He pulls out what he's looking for but causes one of the containers to crash.)
Huntsman: There you are.
Pigsy: (He whips out his Sausage Nunchucks.) You're going down.
(But Tang steps in front and throws the bottle at Huntsman. The bottle falls short and nothing happens except a small quack. But soon, the substance shoots out tentacles and pulls him underneath.)
Tang: Uh, I thought he was going turn into a little ducky.
Pigsy: Ugh. Come on, let's get out of here.
(Huntsman soon frees himself.)
Reflection MK: Hey, did you know uh Monkey King was trapped in here once too?
MK: Yeah. Difference is he was thrown in and I jumped.
Reflection MK: True. But you know what he did? He stuck it out, found a way out. Ended up getting his Golden Eyes of Truth too.
MK: Well, I'm not the Monkey King, okay?
Reflection MK: You're right. You're the Monkie Kid. You've got to figure out your own way to win. So do it.
(MK takes the staff and gazes at his reflection one last time before going back to use the staff.)
MK: Here... comes.. Monkie Kid! (He creates a Lion Guardian mech, which takes the furnace.) Sorry! I-I'll bring it back when we're done saving the world! Honest. Promise. Totally gonna do it. Okay, bye! (He bursts out the temple and Lion Guardians chase him.)
(Sandy has finished fixing his mech.)
Pigsy: Sandy! (Sandy sees Pigsy and Tang running towards him. They jump on board.)
Sandy: Pigsy! Tangy! You got the pills!
Tang: Uh huh! We also have spiders! (He fiercely points at Huntsman running towards them.) They followed us here!
Sandy: Oh.
Pigsy: Where are the others?!
Mei: Sandy! (They see Mei carrying Red Son with Strong Spider after them.)
Tang: Start the engines! It's time to go! (Mei hops on.)
Pigsy: What about MK?
MK: Sandy! (They see MK being chased by the Lion Guardians.) Start! The! Drone! (Sandy starts up the engines.)
Huntsman:: (He tries to jump but Strong Spider pulls him back.) What are you doing? I could have made it.
Strong Spider: Aw, sure you could, buddy. Huh? (Behind them, MK leaps for the drone and makes it.)
MK: Yeah! (They blast off to the mortal realm.)
Huntsman: (Growls.) The Queen ain't gonna be happy about this. (Strong Spider taps him and they see the Lion Guardians behind them.)
Strong Spider: Uh, nice monster doggy?
(The Lion Guardians proceed to tear them apart.)
(The team has regrouped in the skies.)
Tang: So uh, what now?
MK: We find a place to lie low, make the antidote, and save everyone.
Red Son: Ugh, you're back to your disgustingly, enthusiastic self. What happened?
MK: I got a new power. The power... of self-reflection.
Mei, Pigsy, and Tang: Whoa! (Red Son turns away in disgust.)
Mei: So! Where we headed?
MK: Set a course... for Flower Fruit Mountain!
Fireworks[]
(Back at the Arachnoid Base.)
Monkey King: What do you think, big guy? (Demon Bull King growls, glaring at him.) Enjoying the party?
Demon Bull King: She would never have subdued me had you not given her the power she needed.
Monkey King: Or it's just that she captured me first 'cause I'm her favorite.
(Demon Bull King roars in anger as Spider Queen looks on in pleasure. Lady Bone Demon, Huntsman, and Strong Spider arrive at the door.)
Lady Bone Demon: My Queen. It seems the Demon Boy and the Monkey King's protégé are working together.
Spider Queen: So? What can they do? This city is mine!
Lady Bone Demon: Perhaps you should—
Spider Queen: Enough! I don't need you coming here being a party pooper. You know what we need to do? Celebrate! Bring in the Year of the Spider in style!
Lady Bone Demon: As you wish.
Red Son: I, Red Son, will find the powers of the Celestial artifacts with the Spider Queen's own venom, save my father, and reforge the world as I see fit!
Mei: Red Son, that was amazing!
MK: Such a good hero speech.
Red Son: Villain speech! And perhaps my best of all time!
Pigsy: Okay, so what do we do now, guy?
Red Son: We do nothing. I add the ingredients in a very precise order (MK has disappeared from the scene.) you wouldn't understand.
Mei: Uh, there's only two more ingredients, Red Boy.
MK: And I already chucked them in.
Red Son: What?!
MK: You're welcome.
(Everyone is left on the ground, coughing. They go over to check the antidote.)
Tang: Ooh, I think it worked.
MK: Alright. Time to take the fight back to the Spider Queen and end this nightmare once and for all.
Pigsy: How? Those spider people aren't just gonna line up for a sip.
Tang: And even if they did, are we forgetting about Spider Queen? She defeated the Monkey King! How are you...
MK: We'll find a way! We always do.
Sandy: Well, I might have an idea. (He pulls out another remote and presses the button. Water shooters pop out.)
Mei: Oh, yeah!
MK: With this, we might have a chance!
(They blast off with the antidote.)
(Spider Queen is celebrating Year of the Spider.)
Spider Queen: Oh, here comes the spider float! And the spider dancers! This is how you rule the world! (She sees a Monkey King sign in the crowd.) What is that?
Syntax: I don't know. It's not on the approved parade schedule.
(The team reveals themselves. Lady Bone Demon disappears.)
MK: If it isn't Spider Queen throwing herself a party, prepare to meet your doom! (He cackles.)
Red Son: Now that's a hero speech!
Mei: Wow, MK, you're handling your spider phobia so well.
MK: (Up close, he's revealed to actually be sweating.) I'm internalizing a lot of stuff right now. Release the antidote! (The team releases the antidote.)
Spider Queen: What? No.
Citizens: Freedom. Freedom. I'm free! I'm free!
Mei: It's working! Let's finish this!
MK: You reign of horror is— (He trembles.) over.
Spider Queen: Oh, Monkey Boy, you're nothing without your master. There's nothing that can stop me! Nothing!
(Spider Queen powers up her mech. MK leaps at her with the staff but she stops him and shoves him back. He crashes into the wall.)
Mei: MK!
(The rest of the team jumps at her but she catches them all in her webs.)
(At the base, Demon Bull King is trying to restrain Spider Queen's attempt to use his powers.)
Monkey King: It's a shame, really. You being trapped here. No one to protect poor little Princess Iron Fan.
Demon Bull King: My wife doesn't need protecting! She will decimate all in her way! (His anger starts to break the webs.)
Monkey King: Oh yeah? How about your half-baked son? Spider Queen's gonna eat him alive all because you were too weak. (He rages and breaks through the webs.) Hah! It worked! Excellent! (Demon Bull King grabs him.) Whoa! (He slams him to the ground.) Buddy! I was just getting you angry so you can—
Demon Bull King: I know what you were doing, simian! (He rips off the webs from Monkey King.)
Monkey King: Wait. Where are you going?
Demon Bull King: To find my half-baked s... son. (He barges out the base.)
Monkey King: I've honestly missed that guy. (Behind him, Lady Bone Demon makes herself known.) So, you thought you had all the pieces right where you wanted them.
Lady Bone Demon: There are so many moves I have yet to play.
Monkey King: You should have stayed buried. (He leaps at her but she disappears.)
Lady Bone Demon: I will rip the memory of you from this world. (She sends him visions of her inevitable future rule.)
(Spider Queen approaches MK, monologuing.)
Spider Queen: Hmm. After all I've won and lost and won again, you think I was really gonna let some boy take it from me. Bye bye, problem child. (She prepares to take him out but her powers go out.) Oh! (She sees the base losing power.) No. My powers!
Demon Bull King: (He bursts out.) I am no one's slave! (He lands and sends everyone flying but he goes to Red Son and rips off the webs.)
Red Son: Father. (He frees Mei from the webs.)
Spider Queen: All of you together can't beat me! I am the Queen!
Monkey King: Oh yeah? (They look up to see Monkey King walking down the walls. He takes the staff and frees MK.) Well, I'm the King. Turns out, I'm not so good with spiders either.
Spider Queen: If I can't rule this world. (She uses her web to lift her back on to the base.) No one can! I'll level this whole city! (MK and Monkey King leap up to confront her.)
Monkey King: Alright, kiddo! It's now or never!
MK: Right.
MK and Monkey King: Here! Comes! Monkie!
Monkey King: Kid. (He throws Monkie Kid.)
Spider Queen: No! (MK destroys the base but then falls.)
MK: No. (Monkey King catches him but they still freefall quickly. Demon Bull King leaps up and grabs them both as the base explodes.) Thank you— (He realizes who's he thanking.) Bull— Demon Bull King— Mr. King, sir? (He sees the sky and they all look at the aurora lights lighting up the skies.) Whoa!
Sandy: Whoa.
Monkey King: Hah, now those are New Year's fireworks! Huh?
(Everyone is gathered at the rooftop, enjoying the rest of New Year's.)
MK: We should really get better at not smushing the city.
Monkey King: Eh, priorities. (They both laugh.) You did really good today, bud?
MK: Are you okay? After—
Monkey King: It's fine, bud. It's dealt with. Want to tell your friends to take it down a bit? (He peeks over his shoulder at Tang who is gawking at him.)
Tang: Monkey King! I-I'm your biggest fan!
Mei: Hey! Daddy Bull King! Your baby Red Boy did real good hero work today!
Red Son: No! No! For the last time, I am not a hero! (Mei laughs.) Father, let's never tell Mother anything that happened today?
Demon Bull King: Agreed. Come along... Son.
Red Son: S-Son? (He cherishes the moment greatly before composing himself and leaving the scene with his father.)
Tang: Where did Monkey King go? Huh? (He sees a box of treats left by Monkey King.) Oh. Well, don't mind if I do.
MK: (He watches Monkey King fly off.) Happy New Year's, Monkey King.
Mei: Ooh, yummy!
MK: Wait, no! Don't eat that!
Tang: Tastes like hair.
(Down below, Spider Queen is sobbing.)
Spider Queen: Where were you?! What happened to my destiny?!
Lady Bone Demon: Your destiny has not been changed or diminished. Your enemies have done exactly what we needed. (She brings in the Trigram Furnace.) And now, my Queen, the real game can begin.
