Authors note: Okay this is my second fanfic and hopefull it is better than my first one. Reviews are really helpful and for those of you who gave reviews to my first fanfic thank you. There will be a little bit of yaoi in the future between Banari and Sanzo and maybe a little Goyjo and Hakkai. But other than that nothing graphic.
Chapter One
"Goyjo, I am going to the store; do you need anything?" Goyjo stuck his head out and said "Yeah I'm out of cigarettes, and do you think you could buy me some more of that liquor you bought the last time? It was good." Hakkai smiled
"Okay Goyjo." Hakkai opened the front door and started making his way towards the town. As he was walking he looked at his list, they needed a lot of stuff and had little money. Hakkai sighed, well they would manage. Hakkai smiled at this thought, the town folk often made fun of Goyjo and himself, saying they acted like a married couple. That Goyjo was the husband and Hakkai was the wife. He knew they were only joking but at times he almost felt like he was his wife; cooking, cleaning, making sure they had enough supplies.
Hakkai then remembered something… he needed some laundry detergent; otherwise they wouldn't have any clean clothes. Hakkai took out his list and wrote it down, then he picked up his pace towards town. Little did he know someone was watching him…
Hakkai walked down the streets looking at the food stands, trying to find the better deal for what little money he had. It took him a while but he finally managed to get everything they needed. Hakkai started to make his way to the house, when he heard some of the town folk talking in a worried voice. "Did you hear that a gang of demons have been attacking some of the temples in the area again?" said one of them. "Yeah, and I heard that their leader is that troublesome demon named Banari." Hakkai's eyes widened, it had been almost three months since Banari had shown up on their doorstep. He had then left Goyjo to die for his own sake, but he Hakkai had gone to rescue him. Hakkai knew Banari wasn't stupid enough to show his face to Goyjo again, not unless he had a death wish, so he shrugged it off and continued on his way.
Hakkai looked up at the sky, it was getting dark, he had spent way to much time in town. He started walking faster. "Goyjo must be worried." He thought. Hakkai then felt a chill go up his spine. He felt someone watching him. He looked around and saw nothing. Whatever it was, it was doing a good job of concealing itself. Hakkai figured the best thing to do was to get to the house, where he could at least free his hands. He quickened his pace, but the thing still followed him. In the distance he could see the house and he felt his body break into a run, with his pulse beating out of his skin. He was almost their when he felt someone grab him from behind, and say "Well if it isn't the demon who hates demons." Hakkai turned around to fight, but a hand placed a wet cloth on his mouth and nose. Hakkai felt himself getting weaker and weaker, and then finally he passed out.
Goyjo sat in the kitchen waiting for Hakkai to arrive. He had been gone for four hours; surely it did not take for hours to get supplies. Maybe something happened to him? Goyjo shook his head; there was no way in hell that something would happen to Hakkai. But then again he was very easy to sneak up on, Goyjo shook his head again. He laughed at himself, he really cared for Hakkai. He was really the only one person that he could count on. People often made fun of them, but he didn't care, its not as if he liked Hakkai in that manner. Though sometimes Goyjo did wonder, Hakkai was a very attractive being, with a face and body more beautiful than any girl he had ever slept with. Goyjo then realized what he was thinking. "Oh my God!" he thought. He actually called Hakkai attractive, it's not like it was the first time; but this time he wasn't joking. Goyjo got up from the table and walked around in circles. "He needed to get laid" he thought. As soon as Hakkai came back he would go to the bar, pick up a chick, and get laid. At that moment he heard someone knock on the door. "Why is Hakkai knocking on the door? He has the keys." Goyjo said to himself.
He went to the door and opened it, but it wasn't Hakkai standing in the door. But rather an averaged gangly figure, with short hair and an elaborate birth mark on the right of his forehead. The figure then said "Well hello Goyjo long time no see, I am so glad that those demons didn't kill you."
Goyjo stood it shock, and stuttered "B…Ba…Banari? What the fuck are you doing here?" Banari just smiled his crooked evil smile. Goyjo then collected himself and punched Banari in the face sending him flying off the stairs. "How dare you even have the nerve to come back. You incompetent fuck!" yelled Goyjo. Banari got up, wiped his mouth that was bleeding, and smiled. "I thought you would be mad, so we took out a little insurance policy." He said. Goyjo looked at his former roommate and asked "What talking about? What do you mean insurance policy?" "What I mean is, that we took something precious of yours to insure my safety and to make sure that you do exactly what I say." Goyjo looked at Banari and asked "What do you mean you took something precious of mine? What could I possibly have that's pre…?" Goyjo's heart nearly stopped and his eyes widened.
He turned to look at Banari who was smiling. "Yes Goyjo." He said "We have your precious little wife figure. And if you don't want anything horrible to happen to him, I suggest you let me in and hear what I have to say." Goyjo glared at Banari and let him in the house. "If you do anything to harm him I swear I'll kill you." Banari just laughed, "Well I suggest that you be a good boy and listen to what I have to say." Banari sat himself down on one of the chairs and took out a cigar.
"So how have you been Goyjo, I hear you haven't been to the bar lately. Have you been entertaining your little wife?" "Just get to the fuckin point already." Said Goyjo in an angry voice. "My, my are we inpatient." Said Banari in a taunting voice. "Very well then. Before I left you to die I said that I was going to raid the temple of Chang'an, but as you well know I didn't, I escaped. While I was on the run, I bumped into a gang of demons that said that a Sanzo priest was staying at the temple. I hadn't realized that a Sanzo priest was staying there. I also realized that if I got my hands on him, he would be worth a ton of money in ransom.
So I did a little research, and found out that you and your little friend happen to know that Sanzo very well. So I got together a bunch of demons, but realized to get to him we were going to need someone he trusted. I figured you wouldn't help willingly so I needed something to force your hand, and what better way than to hold hostage the one you care about the most." Goyjo stared at Banari. They were going to kidnap Sanzo for ransom, but they couldn't do it alone.
So they kidnapped Hakkai to force him to help with the kidnapping. "So you're telling me that if I want to see Hakkai alive and well again, I have to betray Sanzo's trust in me and help kidnap him?" asked Goyjo in a low angry voice. "That's right Goyjo. You help with the kidnapping, and we let your little friend go…it's that simple." Said Banari. "When do you plan on raiding the temple?" asked Goyjo "Well my dear old friend, tonight." Said Banari. Gojyo stared at the floor with his fists balled in rage, but he released them and said "I'll go get my jacket." Goyjo walked into his room and leaned on the wall, he had to warn Sanzo and Goku, but if Banari found out he would harm Hakkai. Goyjo was stuck; just like an animal in a trap his was stuck.
