Finding a Companion

Fang walked for a while. Suddenly, he heard the pattering of feet and whirled around.

A boy was running for his life, barreling down the streets. Behind him, a large crowd of men roared in anger and followed at a slower pace.

"Help!" the boy yelled.

His head turned around to see how far the crowd was and he slammed into Fang's chest. Falling to the ground, he groaned in pain. Panic flashed across his eyes and he shot to his feet just as the crowd reached the two.

"DA GONGJI DON'T YOU DARE RUN!" the leader of the group roared.

The boy shrank back in fear and bumped into Fang again. Desperately, he looked around for an escape. Finding that the crowd had surrounded them, he panicked and fear flashed across his eyes.

"Listen...," he began.

"SHUT IT!" the leader cried, furiously red.

"HOW DARE YOU?" another man cried.

"HOW COULD YOU SPOIL OUR BELOVED LEADER'S IMAGE LIKE THAT?" a third cried.

The crowd began to clamor and yell in anger.

"SILENCE!" the leader yelled.

Da Gongji looked afraid, although a glint of pride was evident in his expression.

A dry cough sounded out as the crowd looked around in confusion.

"Mind telling me what exactly is happening here?" Fang spoke.

The crowd stared at him and the leader stepped forward.

"Ahhh my apologies for this," he began.

Fang raised an eyebrow.

"You see, we just needed to capture this boy, who spoiled our leader's reputation," he said.

"I didn't spoil anything, you fat pig, Ma Nanxing!" Da Gongji shot back.

Ma Nanxing's eyes were furious.

"Didn't do anything?!?! How dare you! You were the one who spread lies about our leader!" he cried.

"Lies? What lies? They were the truth!" the boy replied.

"HOW COULD THEY BE?" Ma Nanxing roared.

"First you challenged our leader to a fight. Then you used a shameful technique, Monkey Stealing Pecahes, on him to try and defeat him. But our leader remained steadfast and beat you like the ant you are!" Ma Nanxing began.

Da Gongji smiled at this recollection, angering the crowd even more.

"So you spread rumors that he was a eunuch! Because of that, our leader's harem left him. And then, even though he claimed that he wasn't, you angered him by asking for proof! And so, our leader slammed his body into the ground, leaving behind an imprint of his nether regions. It took hims several days to recover from that one!" Ma Nanxing continued.

Da Gongji smiled again and Ma Nanxing seethed in fury.

"But THEN, as if this wasn't enough, you spread rumors that our leader was actually a pervert who liked pain! Even worse, you claimed he was gay!" Ma Nanxing roared.

Da Gongji chuckled. Fang struggled to hide his smile.

"Well you can't say I was wrong!" he replied.

"YES WE CAN BECAUSE YOU ARE! OUR LEADER ISN'T A PERVERT LIKE THAT!" Ma Nanxing yelled.

"Well I should know! Why else would he not react to my Monkey Stealing Peaches? Why else would he slam his manhood into the ground?" Da Gongji retorted.

Ma Nanxing yelled.

"Today, prepare to die!" he spoke coldly.

Fang coughed.

"It seems like you have a reason to beat this guy up," he began.

The crowd smiled evilly and a cold light shone in Ma Nanxing's eyes.

"But... this guy gave me a rather entertaining story. So you can't beat him up," Fang finished.

Ma Nanxing's face fell. Then he snarled.

"How dare you? Who are you to stand against us? Everyone! Attack!" he roared.

Fang smiled and waved his hand. A formless wave of energy rippled out, blasting away the crowd and blowing up huge amounts of dust. When it settled, he and the boy were gone, leaving Ma Nanxing to howl in indignation at the heavens.

Fang reappeared with the boy in his arms several kilometers away. Setting the boy down, he chuckled again to himself.

Da Gongji looked around, expecting to be beaten up. And yet, as he looked around, he was very much alive.

Turning around he saw Fang and his eyes lit up.

"Thank you so much! You must have saved me right?" he cried.

Fang nodded.

"Thank you! Thank you! I'll do anything to repay the favor!" he spoke.

"Anything?" Fang asked.

Da Gongji stumbled back. Could it be true?

'Does he want me to... do that?' he thought.

'But he saved me, so maybe...' Da Gongji considered this for a while.

Trembling slightly, he kneeled on the ground. His blue eyes looked up at Fang and his skin was soft and pale.

"It'll be my first time, so please be gentle," he asked.

Fang's face blackened. He shuddered slightly.

"What the hell are you doing?" he spoke.

Da Gongji stared at him.

'Could it be that he wants to do me?' he thought.

"Stop thinking whatever perverted thoughts you are thinking!" Fang commanded sharply.

"Wait... you're not gay?" Da Gongji asked.

Fang sighed.

"I may be bisexual...," Fang began.

He shut his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"BUT I AM NOT A SLUT OR A PEDOPHILE!" he roared.
