I do not own Saiyuki or any of it's wonderful and lovible characters (Sanzo holds up gun threateningly) n,n
Just a note, I wrote this quite a while ago and had it up on a different site, I just thought I'd share it...please review and tell me what you think!
The sky grew dark as the threatening rain clouds finally broke. There was a quick flash of lightning and a small rumble of thunder in the distance.
"Oh great," a young man with short brown hair, kind green eyes and a monical sighed, "I knew a walk wasn't the best idea."
One Hour Ago
The Sanzo party had made it to the next town in time, the clouds looked threatening, and checked into an inn. They were now sitting around a table having supper.
"Heeey! That last egg roll was mine!" the youngest member, Goku, whined as a young man with long red hair and eyes snatched the food from his plate.
"Awh, poor monkey wasn't fast enough?"
"Gojyo you dumbass! It was still on my plate!" Goku snapped.
"You ate all the fried noodles chibi chimp, it's the least I could do."
"Pervy Kappa! Give it back!"
"Bite me ya stupid monkey!"
"You wish asshole!"
The two continued to bicker until finally they were silenced by Sanzo,
"Shut the hell up or die!"
"Oh my, perhaps I should go and buy some supplies, this could get ugly."
"Oh! Hakkai! Can I come?!" Goku suddenly piped in.
"You're just going to beg for food!" Gojyo accused.
"So what!"
"Try using that grey matter between your ears idiot monkey!"
'KER-SMACK!'
"OW!" both Goku and Gojyo had received a violent smack from Sanzo's paper fan and where now rubbing their sore noggins.
"You damn priest! What the hell was that for!?"
"Shit Sanzo, that hurt!"
"One more sound and I'll kill you both."
"It's ok, I can handle it by myself." Hakkai smiled reassuringly.
Back to Present
"Heh, heh, and I didn't even buy anything." Hakkai laughed to himself. He'd actually wondered just outside of the town, which was surrounded on three sides by forest. As luck would have it,, the now soaked young man found a cave to rest in until the rain subsided.
"Well, this isn't so bad." He sighed. Not wanting to catch cold, Hakkai took off his outer green shirt. Wringing it out, he set the shirt out on a large rock sticking out of the cave wall to dry. Sitting down on the ground, Hakkai gazed dully out at the rain. The sound of the rain pounding on the ground and rustling the leaves was haunting and left a cold feeling deep down inside Hakkai's stomach. He didn't enjoy the rain; it reminded him of that night. The sound of the rain and dying youkai, the blood on his hands, the sight of his love killing herself. It was not his most favorite memory, and he did not like being reminded of suck a dark time in his past. He heaved a heavy sigh.
"Hakkai?" a woman's voice suddenly said. Hakkai looked up and saw Yaone standing at the cave entrance, soaking wet like him.
"Yaone, hello! Please, come in."
