"Hear, hear! All of the Union Monkeys Tribe!" So it's after some busy morning where everyone does their daily survival shits, Wutian decided to call out for everymonkeys for a meet up. "I have an announcement to make!"
"Oh?"
"What is it?"
"Is it good?"
"All you of should know that the Naming Ceremony is a sacred ceremony where only the monkey with the most potential and/or best behavior can get one!" The Great Sun Ape exclaimed, addressing towards the crowd. "And now... we, the leader of the Monkey Tribe and the great tree Arcaxia have came to a conclusion that it's time for another great monkey to be bestowed with a name!"
"Ohhh!?"
"I wonder who will it be!"
"I have the best behavior! Could it be me?"
"Naw, I worked the hardest! It should be me!"
"Silence!" Wutian ordered, and everyone really went silenced. They really DO respect him, eh? "We have evaluated, and we decided on a few monkeys... but before that, I would like to bring up somemonkey..."
He looked towards his own brother, who kind of didn't care about the whole speech, and pointed towards him. "My brother, Lil' Blue!"
"...Lil' Blue?"
"Thaaaaat Water Monkey?"
"He's the brother of the leader?"
"He's one troublesome fella! What's the leader wants about him?"
"I really can't believe he has such a brother!"
"Hmph," The Water Ape looked to the side, completely disrespecting the Sun Monkey. "What do you want?"
"Look how he reacted!"
"Such an insolent brat!"
"Didn't the leader taught him well?"
"Silence!!!" Wutian once again ordered, and leaped down from... my branch. He stepped up towards his brother, and grabbed on his shoulder. "I have decided that the first monkey that should be name in the ceremony will be my own brother!"
"?!" The water ape jolted his head towards the elder monkey, having a look of complete disbelief. "Why-"
"What?!"
"Are you kidding me?!"
"No way!"
"He's FAR from having a good attitude!"
"A prankster, receiving a name?! That's insane!"
"SILENCE!" Now Wutian's a little bit angry. "You may not know this... but he's the smartest monkey of the entire tribe! Remember who saved us from the massive orcs? Remember who solved the problems of food shortage? It was him, my brother! And what is it odd that such a capable monkey to receive the correct recognition and a great name to fit his works?!"
All the monkeys went silence, or rather, they murmured within their own selves. Ooooh nasty. I knew this would happen. Now... Wutian might not be able to hear 'em, but I could...
"I thought that's entirely the leader's work..."
"But he's right. The one with the plans WAS from Lil' Blue..."
"Nah, I'm very sure he's just being lucky. If there's no Wutian, his plan won't work anyway."
"Yeah... Without the leader's aid to his plans, there's nothing that he can do..."
"He's probably tricking the leader with his sweet mouth!"
"Yeah, that's probably it! They're brothers anyway!"
"All... you... idiots...!" Oh. So Wutian COULD hear them. Now that's... bad. The flames started to ignite around him uncontrollably and the light's getting brighter and brighter. The grasses underneath him started to blacken into crisps and... I started to not like this.
"Hey hey hey, big bro, chill down," Suddenly, Lil' Blue patted on his brother's back... more like, a water orb EXPLODED behind Wutian's back. It took out those flames and weakened Wutian. Wutian looked back at his own brother with disbelieve. "You're not gonna like this but, I think Arcaxia over there-"
"How dare he address the great tree with only her great name?!"
"-will be happy to hear that she didn't need to name one extra monkey."
What?
"What do you...mean-" Wutian's eyes widened, and grabbed onto his brother's shoulders again. "No Lil' Blue, you HAVE to!"
"And what GOOD will that bring me, eh?" The blue monkey swiped the elder's hands off. "Look at them, look at your followers!" He pointed at the rest of the monkeys. "NOBODY will be happy if such a monkey like me that will receive a wondrous name like yours, brother. NOBODY will recognize me for my achievements... and NOBODY will give me RESPECTS as they will for you."
"...Brother, I-"
"No, I got it," He smiled at the elder monkey. "You love me, right? But hey, there's one thing that you don't know..."
Suddenly, two blobs of water were formed in his hands, and before anyone else could react...
He smashed into Wutian's face.
"I hate you."
Everybody became furious and shocked, because Wutian fainted and the blue monkey just ran away. Without a leader, they're like wild animals without being controlled - some of them just ran furiously after the blue monkey, while some panicked and didn't know what to do. Wuming immediately came to Wutian's side and held onto him, checking onto him. Noticing that he's fine, she stood up and looked at the other monkeys.
"Listen to me!" She ordered, and immediately the other monkeys halted on what they were doing. Some monkeys that already had ran to chase after the blue monkey didn't even hear her, but the rest of them just looked at the named monkey and listened.
"The Leader is fine," That brought relieve towards all monkeys. "But we need to get him dried off. You three," She pointed at 3 fire monkeys. "Start a fire - but don't burn the blessed garden. Just dry him out," While the three fire monkeys do their things, she addressed towards the rest of the monkeys. "All of you, stop chasing after his brother. I know that all of you are furious at him, but it's also because of all of you that he reacted that way."
"But he attacked the leader!"
"YEAH!"
"No, he did not," Wuming sighed, and looked at Wutian for a while. "Listen. It's normal for siblings to fight against each other and engage in some bickerings, right? Nothing over here are life-threatening. Blue is not even being serious about attacking his brother! Furthermore, IF he really does bear hostile feelings towards him brother...
He could have killed him at this spot."
The monkeys gasped.
"But no, he didn't," Wuming continued. "With a smart monkey like him, he didn't use his skills to kill off his brother. Instead, he merely played a water-prank on him - like how he did towards the rest of you."
"But still-"
"No more shall we talk about this. It's late already, everyone, let's go and sleep," Wuming... smiled.
"Shall we?"
Now that's... creepy.
