Chapter 1
It was 5 years after the defeat of Gyumaoh. Kougaiji and his group ended up helping the Sanzo party, because he only wanted his mother revived and no his father. After the defeat, the two parties got closer in friendship. Especially, the two youngest.
Kou was walking down the hall to wake his little sister up. She had been acting weird lately and he wanted to talk to her about it. Every time the mail came she would get it, sometimes she would have a disappointed look on her face when nothing for her came, but when something did she would lock herself in her room and come out hours later, with a spring in her step.
As he was thinking of this he had reached Lirin's room, he knocked on the door in case she was awake. No answer came so he quietly opened the door and walked over to her bed. What met him there was no his little sister but a note. It read:
Dear Onii-sama
I've gone out to be on my own for a while. I won't be back any time soon, but every 3 months I will sent a letter saying only these words -I am fine- tell the other good bye for me. Okay, I might ask questions now and then, and I expect answers to them. Oh and don't bother looking for me, because you won't be able to.
Love you lots Lirin OXOXOXOX
Kou sat down on his bed, he was shocked. He decided to look around for the letters that Lirin had been getting, but he could not find them. He sat down on Lirin's bed. He was still sitting like that when Dokugakuji and Yaone, came to see what was taking so long waking Lirin up.
The look on Kou's face stopped their questions. Wordlessly he handed them the note, they read it and went over to kou, to comfort him.
"we should go looking for her, even if it says we won't find her we will." Doku told Kou.
Yaone was searching around the room for any clues to were Lirin might be going, but instead she found that Lirin's power limiter was gone. She told the other two about her discovery.
"I wonder…," murmured Yaone as she walked to were Lirin kept her personal belongings and found everything gone. "Kou, everything of hers is gone, all her clothes, everything. This means it won't be a few months, but it could end up being years." She told Kou, who was looking very sad and angrey.
"we are going to look for her. Now." Commanded Kou. As the three left in order to find her, Lirin stepped out of her hiding place, with her juggage over her shoulder, she went to get a dragon to fly to their meeting point.
I'll see you soon Goku. She thought as she flew away from the palace.
In a temple, far far away, Sanzo was sleeping peacefully. He continued to sleep until one of the monks told him it was noon.
This is strange, something's not right. Then it hit him, it was quiet in the temple. That ment there was no monkey. Sanzo turned down the hall were Goku slept and found it empty. He looked around and found a note. It read:
To Sanzo
I'm leaving for a while, don't look for me, I'll be back in a few again maybe not. But every 3 months I will send a letter saying only 3 words: I am fine. Don't look for me because you won't be able to find me. Tell the others for me as well.
See ya later guys
Goku.
Sanzo immediately called the monks to send a letter to Hakkai and Gojyo about the occurrence. Sanzo took a good long look around the room and left deciding that nothing was there. Once he left a shadow dropped down from the roof and ran away as fast as he could to where he was to meet Lirin.
See ya soon Lirin, thought Goku
