CHAPTER 7

"Siya, you're a stubborn idiot, you know that." Sanzo yelled at me. "You almost got yourself killed for your pride."

"He would have killed all four of you if I hadn't done so." I snapped back, I'd only been awake for two minutes before Sanzo started yelling at me. "I will not watch you die Sanzo; you guys are my first real friends. Everyone else wanted something else from me, so I couldn't let you get hurt."

Sanzo sighed before sitting down in a chair by my bedside. I put my hand on my head; all I felt at the moment was pain. I lay back down before I reopened any of my wounds.

"Siya, do you need anything? Hakkia has to get some supplies." Sanzo said, he sounded like he got no sleep the night before.

"Something to stop the pain and some new bandages." I said tapping my chin with my index finger. "Some food and a drink please." I looked over at him before putting my hand on his. "I'm sorry I made you worry Sanzo, it won't happen again."

"I'm going to hold you to that Siya. Next time, were going to help, even if you tell us not to." He said with a glare, I only smiled at him. "You are so annoying half-demon, but if you die, I swear, I'll find a way to kill you again. Don't pull a stunt like that again, ever."

I laughed at him as he went to deal with something. He was different from most humans I'd met; normal humans ran at the sight of me and prayed to some form of a god. But Sanzo hadn't, which had to be the shock of my life, and on top of it, he was lecturing me about how stupid I'd acted. With a simple word he made me rethink my view of the human race.

"Sanzo, I'm forever in your debt." I said with a true smile just before said person walked in. "Sanzo thanks for just being you and for helping me through this."

"Why are you thanking me for being who I am?" He asked giving me a weird look.

"Think about what I am and how humans normally react to one of my kind." I said and the look didn't leave his face. "Most run at the sight of me but you, man where do I start? First of all you talked to me without a single death threat but on top of that you worried for my safety. When no one else would help me after knowing me for years, you helped me after a few days. You're extraordinary for a human and a loyal friend."

He stood shock still at my little speech and I had to smile. I guess his reactions to what I say were another thing I liked about the monk. It was almost funny how quick this human had me wrapped around his finger and he didn't even know.

"Siya, you are awake!" Goku exclaimed as he ran into the room and jumped on the bed. "Hey want something to eat because I'm starving."

"Goku, calm down, I just woke up. I'm hungry as well." I laughed running my hand threw his hair. "Hakkia will be back soon, I hope."

"Goku let Siya sleep; she took quite the beating the other day.' Hakkia said as he and Gojyo entered the room. "How do you feel Siya? I have what you asked for."

"Thanks and everything is painful and that is all I have to say on the matter." I replied taking the things I asked for after sitting up. I looked over at Sanzo, who had a small smile on his lips. "Goku is fine, he's causing me no grief."
