Good day everyone! I've got a correction to make regarding what I said last chapter. I decided to change back the story at the present time. It suddenly struck me that if I continue to answer what happens, then the future chapters will be boring. Hehe.. sorry about that. But I really love mysteries!

Before presenting my new chapter, well.. I will tell you now that Sanzo is a bit OOC here so be prepared. Hehe..

Wait! I forgot! I also forgot to put it in the last chapters. But do I really have to do this? Its obvious..

Disclaimer: I wish I own the characters but well.. maybe I can… just in my dreams :D

I'm now presenting my new chapter! Enjoy reading!


CHAPTER 8: AGREEMENT

"Goku?!"

"Hakkai! I'm glad to see you! Actually I've got a lot of questions to ask but can we save that for later? I really need to see Sanzo now," goku said as he hold hakkai's shirt for support. He's been running for hours looking for his companions.

Hakkai who was lost for words because of shock, point at the stairs leading to the second floor.

"Thanks! I'll talk to you after I talked to Sanzo,"

"But Goku-" before hakkai could stop the boy, goku was already gone.

This is bad. I've got to stop one of them.

0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0

oh no. I forgot to ask hakkai about the location of the room.

CRASH!

That must be Sanzo.

Goku followed the sound of the shattered glass and reached a dark room with an open door. Inside, Sanzo was sitting at the edge of the bed. His head rest on his hands, which in turn rest on his knees. The table was knocked downed and the things on it were scattered on the floor.

"Sanzo! Finally I got to see you! I was so worried because when I woke up I didn't see you so I-"

"Didn't I tell you to leave me alone?" Sanzo said without moving from his position.

"But I just got back from-"

BANG!

"I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE! I DON'T NEED A YOUKAI LIKE YOU TO WORRY ABOUT ME! GET LOST AND DON'T EVER COME BACK!" Sanzo shouted while his gun still points at goku.

Goku widens his eyes as he heard the words Sanzo throws at him. he also felt something drip from the side of his cheek. He slowly puts his hand on it and saw that it was blood.

This is just like that day. Shooting me without second thought.

"Goku! Sanzo!" As hakkai reached the room, a lightning occurred, lighting the dark room. Hakkai saw sanzo pointing his gun at goku and goku was looking at his hand with a surprised expression.

"Sanzo, put your gun down. I already told you earlier to not act like that'" Hakkai approached goku and put his hand on his shoulder.

BANG!

Hakkai pushed himself and the stunned goku on the floor. if he hadn't done that, goku would have been shot.

"GET LOST! LEAVE ME ALONE YOUKAI!" Sanzo pointed again his gun at goku.

"Sanzo! Its not- Goku wait!"

Goku run out of the room and out of the inn. Hakkai followed him, determined not to lost sight of him the second time. But goku is good at running and immediately lost hakkai.

"Goku! Where are you? Don't listen to Sanzo! He's just upset because of the rain!" hakkai called out as he run under the hard rain.

After an hour or so, hakkai still can't find goku. He decided to go back remembering that one of them have no idea what's going on.

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

BANG!

"Hey! You don't have to do that! I'm just asking, you know!" Gojyo said as he dodge the bullet aimed at him.

"Gojyo!" hakkai said, panting. He run back at the inn because he's worried about what might happen between the two.

Sanzo glared at the wet man and started pointing the gun at him.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" gojyo said as he summoned his shakojou.

"Gojyo. Stop that. Let's go. Leave him alone… for now."

Gojyo was about to protest but as he saw the look on hakkai's face, he surrendered and walked out of the room, closing the door hard.

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

"Hey! What happened? That saru got me and when I woke up, you two weren't here." Gojyo asked as they entered their room.

"Goku has ran away again. I can't find him anywhere." Hakkai said as he sat down on the bed.

"Hey, don't worry. I'm sure he'll be back. Its just like him." Gojyo said reassuring.

"But he did it again."

Gojyo looked at Hakkai. Wondering what he is talking about.

"Sanzo shot the gun at goku. Not just once, but twice."

Gojyo was stunned and remained quiet because he knows that those two shots were not the same whenever Sanzo fired his gun at them when he's pissed.

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

Goku was now back at the forest. His hand is still at the side of his cheek, touching the wound created by the missed bullet.

If hakkai's not there, I would probably be dead by now.

"Good evening, Goku-san…." A man came out from behind a tree.

As always. I didn't felt his presence.

"What did I tell you? I was correct? Right? Sanzo, doesn't need you anymore. Now, come with me. We have an agreement. Remember?" the man smiled as he reached out for goku.

"I know. That's why I'm here. I'm ready. Ukoku-san." Goku wiped his tears before reaching out and grabbing the hand of the man.

Now, the real fun begins.

Goku and Ukoku suddenly disappeared leaving no sign at the forest that someone was formerly there.
