The Past
This takes place several years before MK is born. Focuses on Fang returning to Megapolis to deal with a problem, as well as eventually facing her father after 10 years of silence between each other.
Rage vs Rage
Carefully making their way inside they come to realize that the place is guarded, and after sneaking in through the air vent on the rooftop, they realize why. As a strange machine containing one of the crystal's which Moth points out is one of the same one's from the valley that which power's the groves source of magical energy. Both Fang and Moth sneak down to investigate further while Jun and Yu stay in the vent to scope out the scene.
Upon gathering some tools for Moth, he request a distraction in order to buy him enough time to shut down the machine and snag the gem back. Fang sends Jun a msg over text, prompting him to let the moths that are outside, in. It isn't until they're waiting for their distraction does she takes notice in one of the strangers rambling on in the facility near the machine does she realize that they happen to be Red Son. Who outright blurts out his plan to use the power of the moon to power the crystal which in turn would be used to power the same gauntlet he would use to free DBK.
Moth ends up getting electrocuted upon attempting to disassemble the machine, and Yu Lai decides that they want to help, while Jun is more on the defensive in staying back like Fang said. A bit of wrestling causes the vent they're in to collapse, when in turn gathers the entire room's attention onto them.
Fang blows her hiding spot in order to cause enough distraction for Jun and Yu to get out of harms way as Red Son orders his bull clones to dispose of them. Teaming up with Jun, Fang sends Yu to go help Moth while they take on the onslaught. And after taking the hint that the group isn't just a random gang of anime cosplayers, Red Son steps up to take on Fang. Noting suspiciously of her very unique fighting style which only prompts him to further go after her as they fight.
Thankfully the fight is put on pause as the lights go out, thanks to Yu Lai for unplugging the machine funnily enough. Moth snags both her and the crystal and haul ass out one of the front windows, where Moth takes a rather nasty tear to the wing, grounding him indefinitely for the time being. Fang orders a retreat and as both attempt to make their escape, Red Son grabs Fang and wrestles her to the ground, demanding to know who she is and why her fighting style is reminiscent to that of the Monkey King's. To the point he outright claims her at being his protege.
Her excuse for being so weak willed in her fight against him stems back to the sliver of a story her father once told her, in both him and DBK at one point having been sworn brothers. And it had at one point given her hope that she could have a bigger family through easing the severed ties back together. Unfortunately for her, Red Son knew nothing of her as she did him, and from that his rage only multiplied at her familiarity to Monkey King.
Amidst his rage, he fails to notice Jun sneaking up behind him, and manages to get himself entangled with Jun. Who had grown furious at watching Red Son hurt Fang so terribly, to the point he was willing to fight his fear of fire in order to save her. Sadly Red Son manages to get the twist on him, and locks him into a grip where he threatens his life if Fang didn't tell him who she really was.
This only sparks a fiery rage in response to seeing her friend's life placed in such jeopardy, prompting her to summon her Chi move, Knuckle Busters, in an attempt to take Red Son down. It works partially, as out of surprise he drops Jun in order to defend himself again Fang.
However as the two get into a heated battle, Fang's fury causes her identity to become undone, as her hood gets snagged, exposing her face to the world. And as she is about to go too far with the fight, Red Son catches her off guard with noting her having daddy issues with the Monkey King. Only to use her sudden surprise to burn her arm that which she'd been using to keep him down. And manages to escape from the fight.
Leaving a very broken group to pick themselves up.
