Xaiyu sighed, placing the empty shot glass on the bar with a small chink.

She'd already had more than enough to drink, but didn't care. Anything to take her mind off of things was welcome at this point. She had been living pretty well up until quite recently… The minus wave affecting Youkai all over Shang'ri La, however, had devastated everything.

She sighed heavily, and brushed her scarlet red hair behind her ear as someone sat down next to her.

A freshly poured drink was placed in front of her, and she looked up blearily.

"Enjoy," said the man that had sat down next to her. She tried to get him into focused, and could see that He too had crimson res eyes and just as red hair as she did. Another Half-Youkai, like her. How rare.

"Thanks." She mumbled, taking the drink. He seemed to be watching her carefully, maybe trying to catch her eye to start flirting or whatever. She didn't care. She downed the glass, and that was all she could handle.

She swayed dangerously, then fell onto the guys shoulder, her head throbbing.

"What the hell?" He said, taken aback.
"Tage mbee hoooomb..." She mumbled into his arm. He smelled strongly of cigarette smoke…
"What are you talking about!" He said slightly disturbed.
"Take me hoooome." She repeated, more clearly this time. She clung to his arm as though it were her lifeline, keeping her from falling up.

"How the hell do I do that?" he said. "Where do you live? Where's your house?"
She looked up at him, Her hair covering her right eye in a messy fasion.

"A... House?" she repeated. "Oooh, do you have one of those?"

He sighed.

'Great,' Gojyo thought. 'I've just made friends with a homeless drunkard. I didn't think a hot chick would be like this… I s'pose I should just take her to the hotel for the night, 'till she get's sobered up… the guys'll complain, but eh..'

His mouth twitched slowly into a smirk. A girl, beggin to come home with me, huh? Heheheheh.

He stood up, draped one of her arms around his shoulders, and helped her out of the bar.

As he walked her down the street, she started to hum. Very off-key. And, To his dismay, broke into song, her voice wavering.

"Love shack, babyyyyyyy (heehee) a little place where we can get TO-ge-THER... (hiccup) hahahaa.. Love shack." Ah like that song.."

He was slightly getting a bit wary of her, but reassured himself that Once her mind was cleared up, she'll tell what her deal is.

"Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeef.."
"Dammit, be quiet already, Goku!"
"Ah, now now..."
"Poooooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrk..."
"Goku, shut up!"
"Please, you two…."
"Say, wheres the pervy kappa?"
"He went out for a drink."
"Yes, Gojyo should be back soon"

As the guys were talking, the doorknob to the hotel room clicked and turned. They all looked around to see

A CLIFFHANGER! Bwahahaha.

Yay.
