Thoes Who Are Damned
Summery: She was as cold as death itself, but her sad smile held a certain warmth that drew him to her and her fatal beauty. (Sanzo X OC ) (Takes place after the Journey)
A/N: WooHoo!!! Starting another story!! For those of you who were reading my last story, I promise it'll be back up soon, hopefully... I had to do some MAJOR revising. But until then, I have this lovely pice of work for you... So far, its comming along great, and I have the first couple chapters done, so Keep a look out for major updates on this one...
I got major inspiration for the idea behind my OC from the Twilight book series by Stephenie Myer, and I highly recommend those books to anyone and everyone if you haven't read them already... it might make understanding my character just a bit easier. But if not, i'm sure you'll catch on quick... So have fun reading how I manipulate our favorite foursome with my amazingly awesome word weaving skills. lol.
Some of the info on the Saiyuki group might be a little off... I just recently picked up on the series, and I've managed to pull a little bit out of what I've been able to find on YouTube, so bear with me, and if you see something wrong, tell me, so I can fix it. Thanks!
Disclaimer: I don't own the Sanzo gang, not even a single golden strand from the top of Sanzo's beautiful head... But, I am capable of making them dance for me in my little tale... I don't own the idea behind my character either, but I do own her. If you want to borrow her, ask and I'll gladly give you permission. Just let me know, and give credit where credit is due.
ON TO THE STORY!!!!!
Chapter One: Booking Rooms
It had been two weeks since their mission had been completed.
Two weeks, four days, eighteen hours, and seven minutes since it had been brought to a close. Now they were on the road again and heading towards home.
Home...
Such a strange word that had become to him now.
Where was home? They had been gone so long that he honestly couldn't bring forth a mental image of it.
Was it at the temple? Where he had been rescued and raised by Komyo Sanzo and had earned the Sanzo title after that tragic day?
No.
That wasn't home. It was just where he stayed, where he listened to the other monks of the temple disrespect him with names like ' River Rat ' or ' River Drifter. '
No, that wasn't home at all.
Maybe home was the inns and places they had spent the night in along their two year journey? The buildings that had offered them a roof to sleep under, a hot meal, and a warm bed. A place where no one really discriminated against their odd group, so long as they had the money to pay.
But no,
That wasn't home either.
Maybe he had no home.
Maybe he was destined too wander the lands forever, never truely having a place where he belonged.
Yeah, that sounded more believable...
' A gypsy soul is what I am... I, '
Sanzo's inner thinkings were interrupted by the escalating voiced comming from the back seat of the Jeep.
" You're just looking for a reason to touch my ass, aren't cha?!" Goku snapped.
" You little fag! Don't project your fantasies on me!" Gojyo yelled.
A vein in Sanzo's temple pulsed with a seething irritation for the two in the back. "You're little unrequited love affair is starting to get on my nerves, get a room!"
Hakkai let out a chuckle from the seat beside him. "Nice move there Sanzo."
"Thanks, I thought so too."
"Oh my, you're awefully quiet back there, are you two making out?" Hakkai teased.
A growl could be heard comming from Gojyo in the back seat. "Shut up Hakkai."
"Yeah, shut up," came Goku's likewise reply. "How much longer until we get the the next town? I'm starving!"
"You're not starving, you little minkey. You're just a bottomless pit," Gojyo commented off-handedly.
"Can it you stupid Kappa!"
A paper fan hit both of them over their heads.
"Both of you zip it, or next time I'll shoot you and make sure you stay quiet permanently." Sanzo warned.
" The next town should be just up here Goku. We should be there in a few minutes." Hakkai told them.
The rest of the ride was silent except for the sound of the car bumping along the desert floor. When they pulled up into the town they stopped at what appeared to be the only inn.
"Hakkai, take Goku and Gojyo to get something to eat while I book us some rooms," Sanzo said.
Hakkai nodded and hopped out of the jeep with the rest of them. "Come on Hakurya, lets find us some food."
The jeep made a small popping sound as it transformed in a cloud of smoke from the green automobile into a small white dragon.
Hakurya landed on Hakkai's shoulder with a small mewl as they all walked into the inn. Sanzo quickly split ways with the others and made his way towards the front desk to get their rooms for the night.
When he reached the desk, there was no one waiting behind it to greet him. Sanzo rang the small bell sitting there, hoping to alret someone of his presence.
A voice that sounded like music answered him from behind.
"Hello Sanzo-sama."
Sanzo turned to meet the person who sounded like an angel and had shown him the respect of his tittle. His eyes met the top of a head of long pure white hair that had been carefully pulled into a long braid. He stared transfixed with the silken strands, but when the person rose from the low bow, Sanzo realized that not only had this person sounded like an angel, but she looked like one as well.
Pure silver eyes met his amethyst ones, and for a moment Sanzo thought he must have been staring into a pool of stars. Her eyes were bright and striking, and it was hard for him to pull his own away from them.
Finally, his eyes roamed over the rest of her body. He found a pale face of sharp angular features and a figure that would rival any goddess in the heavens. The traditional kimmono she wore hugged all her curves in all the right places, but left plently for ones imagination to ponder.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" She asked.
Sanzo shook himself from his stupor and his eyes snapped back to her delicate face. "Um, yes... I need to book a couple of rooms for the night." he said, stuttering over some of his words.
The girl nodded and stepped around Sanzo to get behind the desk.
'Get a hold of yourself Sanzo, she's just another pretty face.' he scolded.
But there was something about her that kept drawing Sanzo's attention.
Maybe it was the way she held herself, or maybe the way she respected his tittle as a Sanzo priest.
'Or maybe its because she looks like Sin incarnate,' his mind suggested for him. 'Admit it. You've never met anyone, human or demon, that's as beautiful as her, and you're interested!'
Sanzo shook his head to clear the thoughts.
No, that couldn't be it. He'd been raised since he was young under the teachings of Komyo Sanzo and the monks. Out of the hundreds of attractive women he'd met along his life, he had given none a second glance, and none had made him turn his head, except for this small slip of a girl.
'Yes, but none of them could even compare to her beauty. Admit it!'
Sanzo pushed the voice from his head. Gojyo must be starting to rub off on him. After all the stress of their mission and being couped up with the annoying kappa for so long, listening to his ravings about women, he was starting to think like him, that was all. He just needed to push the thoughts away and expel them from his mind and concentrate on getting back to the temple. After he got the rooms booked he'd forget all about the white haired beauty, just like all the other girls.
"Sanzo-sama?"
Sanzo brought his attention back to the girl standing across from him. "Yes?"
"I asked how many rooms you'd like?" she said.
"Four rooms, if you have them."
He watched her bend over a book to look for the rooms he had requested.
"Sorry Sanzo-sama, but we only have two rooms available at the moment," she apologized.
"That's fine. I'll just take the two then," he told her.
She nodded and made a mark in the book before turning it towrds him. "Just sign your name here and I'll get you the keys to your rooms."
Sanzo signed his signature in the book and gave it back to the girl.
She handed him the keys with a smile that, to him, could have rivaled the beauty of the moon. "Here you are Sanzo-sama. Enjoy your night. If you need anything, just ask for me and I'll be there with whatever it is you need."
"Thank you."
He handed her the money for their rooms, but before she could turn to leave with it he stopped her.
"Your name."
She looked at him quizically. "Excuse me?"
"Your name," Sanzo repeated. "Who am I to ask for if I should require anything?"
She gave him another one of her brilliant smiles.
"My name is Lilith."
