Goku was outside leaning against a tree, he wasn't acting like himself. To any of the passerby's the sight a cute eighteen year old boy relaxing outside and hitting on young girls would be normal, however for Goku this was something he wasn't used to doing. You see Goku was the kind of kid that would be running around like an idiot playing tag and making fun of people. He was not the type to be calm and relaxed hitting on girls and chain smoking cigarettes. Yes Goku was leaning against a tree and smoking, a half empty pack of Hi-Lite's was in one hand and a cigarette was between his thump and forefinger in the the other hand. This cant be right you might be saying but that fact of the matter was that Goku was indeed there. He was indeed outside dressed like Gojyo, acting like Gojyo and he couldn't help it. Goku looked at the cigarette in his hand and the pack in his other and started getting angry. He crumpled up the pack in anger and threw it across the grass filled yard. He took one last drag from the cigarette and threw that too, and then if it was and instinct he ran over and picked up the half empty pack of smokes putting it back in his well Gojyos jacket pocket. Goku then started to walk back inside to see how the rest of the group was dealing with the change. Yes change was the key word , perhaps I should give a little bit of information as to what really happened to make Goku act like Gojyo.
It all started earlier that day, The Sanzo-ikkou were again heading west after a brief but hysterical nights stay at a small town inn. I say hysterical because Goku had eaten so much food that he fell asleep right in a bowl of soup, spilling half of it all over his clothes. This caused him to have to put on an old pair of Gojyos clothes that had been shrunk in the wash. The sight of Goku dressed as Gojyo made Hakki and Gojyo laugh and made Sanzo get a headache and want a cigarette. So Hakki pushed Sanzo out into the hall so he wouldn't shoot them all. This left Goku and Gojyo alone in the room. Goku went over and sat on his bed and Gojyo followed while lighting another cigarette. Goku coughed from the smoke and turned to face Gojyo. "Why so angry looking monkey" Gojyo said around a mouth of smoke. "Do you have to smoke so much its not good for you and it smells real gross" Goku wined. Gojyo just stared at Goku and blew smoke in his face. Goku got up and ran in to the bathroom ready to be sick from all the smoke that just got forced into his lungs. After a few min he walked back into the room only to see Gojyo was gone, probably out looking for chicks or beer or more cigarettes cause thats all he ever does Goku though to himself. Just as he was about to sit down at the table and eat the leftovers from dinner Hakki walked back in the room. "Hay Goku how are you feeling Gojyo told me you got sick" Hakki said while smiling. Goku nodded his head as Hakki sat down across the table from him. "Ill probly get sick again if I have to wear his clothes any longer they still smell like smoke "Goku complained. Hakki laughed and smiled some more. "Until we can get to a cleaner you will have to wear them" Hakki said. "This sucks I mean it wouldn't be a problem if we had like the same personality and I did the things he did like drink and smoke but being stuck in his clothes makes me feel so weird". Hakki just laughed again "Well look at it this way its kind of like you get to see what its like to be Gojyo". Goku just stared back at him in anger. Hakki saw this and walked over to him and patted him on the head "Dont worry Goku, Gojyo might seem like a bad guy but he is nice once you really get to understand him and besides its not like all of us are going to somehow change places with each other". Goku laughed at the idea of Sanzo and him switching places or even switching with Hakki. Hakki walked out into the hall to look for Sanzo and Gojyo as Goku got ready for bed. Once Goku got into his pajamas he walked over to the window and stared up at the night sky. "I guess it really is a good thing that we act the way we do and are role's aren't switched around, although it might be fun to have a change in our lives"Goku says to himself. Goku then laughed as he climbed into bed and fell asleep. Little did Goku know that shooting star was in the night sky and it heard his wish for a change in there lives. As soon as all the Sanzo-ikkou were in there beds sleeping the shotting star got to work changing them, a red essence slowly rose from Gojyo's body and went into Goku's body, a yellow essence went from Goku's body to Sanzo's, a purple essence went from Sanzo to Hakki and finally a green essence went from Hakki's body into Gojyo's. This essance transfer was going to cause some problems and not just for Goku but for the whole gang. And so here we are back at the beginning and from what you know know Goku is stuck with Gojyos personality, Sanzo is stuck with Goku's, Hakki has Sanzo's and Gojyo has Hakki's. This is going to be one tough thing to deal with because not only are they being forced to act like someone else, they all know that these are not there normal personality's and they cant do anything about it. All they can do is take on each others roles and deal with the fact that there lives are going to be changed forever.
