--A/n-- uh oh why did I put tomorrow on the last chapter ?!?!? I'm so sorry about the delay you see last week of the term (1) I have to go chase after teachers, (2) try to make an appointment with my mentor, (3) see teacher about portfolio work, (4) math project due, (5) got two literature books to read, (6) had an art workshop with my class, (7) banged my head against the wall when I got Hakkai-san as my partner for a 10hr Design Tech project and all that @_@ besides, all computers were occupied and I can't do it at home.

I've been getting a lot of requests for it -_-'' and I've decided to put aside my "Hamlet", and start working on this read, and review, k?? ^-^

(long- delayed) Chapter II: The Immobilized Perception (blindness)

Grumbling students trudged to the backfield of the school where it was surrounded by a line of coconut trees, to see what they'll have next.

"Konzen,"

"What?" Sanzo grumbled. He didn't bother correcting Homura; he was getting sick of telling him off.

"How many times did your foot get caught between the poles?" Homura sniggered.

Sanzo glared, and turned away. Homura looked at Hakkai who slowly showed him 8 fingers and smiled weakly. Homura smirked and turned back to his cronies.

"Possibly nothing could be more embarrassing than that" Gojyo muttered. Hakkai looked at him and at the teacher who was putting people into pairs.

"I wouldn't count on it."

Back to Go-Nat-Lir

They gathered their things and rushed out of Nii's lab and to their next class.

"Blindfolded?" Goku repeated thoughtfully, leaning back against the cold lockers as Nataku stuffed his books inside.

"Yeah."

"Where did you get these things?" Lirin asked, shaking her head.

Nataku grinned, "I have a good selection of sources."

"So, genius, what do they have to do?"

"I think they have to race, around the trees, I think" Nataku shrugged. "What do we have now?"

"Math."

Lirin grinned, "Downstairs."

Seniors


Sanzo, Homura, Kougaiji and Gojyo glared as they stared at the blindfolds in their hands. Somebody raised a question, "Sensei, can you repeat that?"

"I said: Those with blindfolds have to try to run across the field, around the trees and back here." The teacher said patiently.

Hakkai looked at Sanzo and Gojyo who were glowering at the teacher. I wouldn't be smiling, especially if Sanzo and Gojyo were glaring like that. he thought pleasantly.

"Okay, before we start, sit with your partners."

Homura stared at Zenon sourly. "How come you get to sit down??"

"Injured foot, man." Zenon smiled proudly.

"Don't tease him, Zenon." Shien said, suppressing a smile, "Or later Homura will make sure it's not only your foot that's painful."

"Let's just hope that you're good at navigating." Homura muttered.

"You serious? He can't even find his way around Tenkai without following anybody." Zenon raised at eyebrow at Shien.


"IF you get me humiliated again I'll" Gojyo glared at Doku who was staring at him, amused.

"I know, I know"

"You'd better."


Hakkai smiled pleasantly at Sanzo, who has his blindfolds ready and is still glowering.
"Listen Hakkai, nothing stupid or I'll blow your brains out."

"Hai hai Leave it all to me."

"I'm not convinced" Sanzo's heart sank.

Hakkai laughed, making Sanzo more nervous.


"Don't worry. Just lead me perfectly or you'll have to treat me again" Kougaiji assured her, even though he couldn't exactly see her. Man, she's not exactly gentle when she fixes me up

Oh boy he's not exactly the best-behaved person to attend to If he gets too injured Yaone sighs, "I guess I'll have to buy new bandages"


Finally the teacher clapped his hands to signal for attention. "Let the blind stand and ready to race."

Go-Nat-Lir


Goku ran down the stairs with Lirin and Nataku behind him. "Quick, or we'll miss the fun."

Nataku was panting for breath as Goku stopped at the badminton court. "Hey, we're supposed to go to class"

"Guess again, genius, our teacher's not around."

"Huh?"

Lirin pointed at the classroom. An empty classroom with a note on the board. "No teacher. Go to library."

They exchanged grins. "Who would?!"

-owari.

A/n: Be back for more. Promise.
