Chapter 2 - Lost past
New day, the sun is shining and the world is just waiting for me! Life is sweet and filled with delight, yet so cruel sometimes. That didn't matter at all. I got dressed quickly, it was my second day with the Sanzo party. And right this moment I made myself a motto. If i want something, I'll go and get it myself no matter how hard and how much effort it will take. Weird, eh? Well, that's me.
"Yo, done yet, baka?" Sanzo said outside my door. Ooooppppss...guess I got caught in my thoughts. Oh yes, another special thaing about being a girl!
"Yeah, yeah, Mr. Baka priest," I muttered as I walked out the door. Everyone was leaning against the wall of the hall. I sighed...
"What's wrong, Tsuki-san?" Hakkai asked.
"I'm..." I began... "HUNGRY!" The fell and jumped back up, anime version.
"That's what that was all about?!" Gojyo exclaimed.
"ME TOO! ME TOO!" Goku laughed, we grinned at each other.
"SHUT UP!" Sanzo used his an to smack our heads. I put on a teary face...
"S-sanzo...you're...s-so...mean...WAAHH!" I sniffed. Sanzo covered his face with his hand, sighing.
"This is why a girl is so troublesome..."
"BUT YOU AL LOVE ME!" I yelled. Gojyo and I were grinning closed eyed, going in for a hug.
I smacked his head down last second and smirked, "In your dreams, loser!"
I was listening to my ipod, singing along.
See this is real...
She doesn't feel
I was singing along to She cries by Simple Plan.
"Your singing is annoying, and your songs suck," Sanzo siad, absentmindedly...
"T-that hurt...waahh!" I faked cried.
Goku shouted out slapping his forehead, "Sanzo! Don't be mean!"
"Oi, damn Priest! Never make a girl cry!" Gojyo joined in.
'This is working well...' I thought, continuing to pretend to cry but I was stifling laughter by now.
Hakkai smiled, "Yes...they are right, Sanzo...you should treat a lady with respect and kindness."
"But... She is no lady! She's violent, a smart mouth, and annoying!!" Sanzo huffed.
"SANZO!" Goku, Gojyo, and Hakkai all said his name in unison.
"Fhh...fine! Sorry!" The priest was mad...
I couldn't hold it in anymore, "HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Sanzo snapped, "BAKA!!!" He used his paper fan to hit us all...except Hakkai.
"Waah! Sanzo, what was that for?!" Goku whinned, pointing at the large bump on his head.
"Yeah, Sanzo ass-face! WHAT THE HELL WA THAT FOR?!"
I joined in angrily pointing at Hakkai, "YEAH! What the fuck was that for?! And why didn't you hit Hakkai?! Not to pick on you Hakkai..." I apologized to the driver but he just smiled.
"It's fine, Tsuki-san!" He just brushed it off.
"Please, no 'san' honorfic...Just Tsuki is fine!" I blushed at his formalness.
"YOU GUYS WERE ANNOYING AND PISSING ME OFF!!!! AND..." Sanzo stopped mid-sentence...and Hakkai?
"..." Everyone didn't have anything to say...then a very good song and youkai popped out.
"DIE SA-" The youkai was cut off with my singing. I was singing so loudly I was screaming.
"TSUKI! BAKA! STOP SINGING!" Sanzo shouted over my singing and I stopped, blushing.
"Gomen ne...sorry...heh...I love that song..." I smiled.
"We noticed," Sanzo, Gojyo, Hakkai, and Goku stated. I blushed and laughed lightly...
"HEY!! DON'T FORGET ABOUT ME!!" the youkai screamed.
"Yeah, yeah. We heard you the first time...actually...umm we didn't..." I sweat dropped.
"AUGH!" The youkai threw up his arm and started spazzing...
I scowled and crossed my arms, "Why does he have to spaz here? I get that enough at home! GO SPAZ SOMEWHERE ELSE!"
"Yo," Kougaiji appeared.
"Hiya!" I was feeling hyper so I hugged him.
"Whoa, looks like someone has the hots for you, eh, skinny?" Dokugakuji grinned.
"What?? Nii-san's in llooooovvee!" Kougaiji's half-sister taunted him.
"I AM NOT!" Kou exclaimed, blushing.
"You...hate...me...?" I sniffled, playing along. Heh, I can be a serious drama queen sometimes...most of the time...
"Don't be mean!" Yaone lectured Kou, she winked at me.
"AY! I don't hate you..." the red head was in a tight situation.
"Yeah, he doesn't...he likes you," Dokugakuji put in.
I just smiled, "Ha! Now let's not push it too far. I give hugs to everybody...but Sanzo of course, he's uber strict and mean!" I made a face and then went over to hug Goku, "See?"
I saw Kougaiji growling, looking mad. I burst out laughing.
"When did you guys meet?" Hakkai asked us.
"Oh, not long ago, I guess. Kougaiji's my main man now...I'm not dating or anything so yeah..." I grinned.
"HELLO!! I'm still here, y'know!" The youkai was waving his arms in the air.
I shook my head sighing, "Don't bother trying, I tried that before. No matter how much or how hard you flap your arms, you can't fly. Now, there, there. It's alright, we may not be able to fly but that's okay!"
"Uh-huh...did you take your pills today?" Gojyo asked.
"I lost my pills! To be more specific I sold them on Ebay!" I grinned.
"Ebay?" they asked.
"Never mind" I sighed, they lacked the great technology of Ebay.
"How about your other pills? You don't have any back up ones?" Yaone questioned me.
"I sold them in the black market!" I grinned as their jaws fell down, "Just kidding! I threw them into a sewer pipe! One by one, those brave lil neon green pill soldiers went into the murky brown pipe...never to be seen ever again. Soon followed the bag..."
"You're crazy!" Lirin went, smiling.
I hugged her, "I know!"
"HELLO!!" The youkai went and in a second Sanzo had his gun to his head.
"Shit the fuck up, you annoying peice of trash," Sanzo growled at him. I pushed the gun away.
"Now, now! Play nice, Sanzo! You are a priest y'know, and sometimes it wouldn't kill you to listen to the rules occasionally," I smiled as his eyebrow twitched and I turned to face the youkai, "Sorry for interrupting all those times...what's your name?"
The youkai looked away from my gaze...I had this effect on people...err...youkai. "It's Shun... I heard from the others that you have returned to us, Queen...and I had at first thought that the Sanzo party had taken hold of you...I was wrong. I have come to show you something...please...follow me."
I nodded and followed him. I heard footsteps behind me. Kougaiji and his pack and the Sanzo party was also following me. I smiled as Jeep curled himself around my neck. I kissed teh dragon's head softly, I had always liked mythical creatures. Jeep purred, closing his eyes he drifted to sleep.
"We're here..." the youkai sounded unsure, we had walked about twenty minutes, tops. We all now stood in front of a cave, cautiously I stepped inside after Shun.
"Whoa..." Gojyo said as we saw an injured little girl. We all stood speechless.
I was first to find words, "W-what happened to her?"
"I found her a few days ago...I was about to kill her but something happened...I...I couldn't. I brought her to this cave and fed her. Soon after another youkai stumbled on her while I was out. I came back when he was just about to kill her...I killed the drasted youkai!" Shun slammed his hand against a rock, blood trickled down his hand. He looked away from my gaze but I had caught tears in his eyes. "It only happened yesterday night...and I can't heal her...I-I don't know what to do! I can't help her! I can't save her!" I felt Shun's pain...his agony. Somewhere in his heart he had found love for this human girl... She was dying and he did not posess the ability to save her... He was just like me... The thought surprised me but the shock faded away almost immediantly. Shun was like me a few years ago...I was weak then but now I was stronger. I would never forget what happened then.
"What's her name?" I asked softly.
"Suzu..."
"Suzu...bell, right?" I translated it and I held the bell on a ribbon around her neck, "Don't worry, Shun, I will save her..."
"Tsuki...it is too late now...she has stopped breathing!" Hakkai exclaimed.
"I-IT'S NOT TOO LATE! NO!" I desperately used my magic to heal her wounds, bring life back into her. I kept trying and trying...
Kougaiji shook me and took me away from the girl, "Tsuki! Stop! It's already too late! Snap out of it!" I stared at my bloody hands and the bell that was in my hands...her necklace... My knees buckled and I feel down...too late. I cried and cried while Kou held me tight. I felt so small now...it was just like the other time...the other time I failed to save another innocent life.
I was in school then. The semester had just begun a new year but I was the same. I knew no mercy and nothing else but fighting. I already joined a dangerous gang. The blood that stained my hands and soul dug deep into the agony of the wounds of my heart. Then on fateful day...I met her. She was a good girl but was always left out...an outcast like me. She slowly befriended me and accepted me. We opened up to each other gradually. We couldn't say how it happened but we saw the...light... I had told her about my mistakes and pain...my powers that I posessed.
"Why aren't you afraid? Afraid of me?" I asked her one day.
"Why should I be? You are very similiar to me...we both made mistakes. We both are sinners who saw the light when we met each other," She smiled as she answered my question and hugged and held me as I broke into tears.
Soon after my old gang found me changed and they didn't like me at all. They decided I needed to re-learn and pay.
"You can't change what you are no matter what! You're just like us and always will be! Don't try to fix stuff that are lost!" my old gang friends yelled at me, I was lucky...they had not punished me yet.
Then they discovered her, and they made me pay. They killed her. I still remember holding her lifeless body, I couldn't save her. She had known about my powers and still had accepted me. But I couldn't fix her, she was gone...I couldn't repair what I had lost. I couldn't do anything that night...she was gone forever.
Why did that still haunt me?! Why...?
It was the same as the years before. A funeral. I went over to Shun to apologize.
"Why? I'm sure Suzu would be happy wherever she is. You made the effort to save her and mourned over her...cared for her even though you never knew her... Queen, you are a funny girl...and I don't think any other person could be a better ruler then you are." Shun disappeared that day. I had just met him and the only real thing I knew about him was his name. He was a mysterious being, but a kind one too. I knew wherever he was, he could honestly say he saw the light...within young yet deceased Suzu...who would forever remain in his heart. As my friend would always remain in mine.
I had to stop the youkai soon, before they hurt even more innocent people.
