TENKAI
"Goku!"
Sanzo…?
"Goku, wake up!"
Hakkai…?
"Oi Goku! Wake up will you!"
Gojyo…?
Goku opened his eyes as a stream of light make their ways from the window to his sleepy faces. It's hot. "Hmm…?" He looked around him and it took a long time to register himself that he actually in someone's room, on the bed, not on the floor with a Golden-Eyed kid screaming for him. "Where…is that kid?"
"Oh! You're awake!" Tenpou appeared at the doorframe. His face look tired and his cloak looks shabby. Probably busy reading, thought Goku. "How do you feel?" He asked. Goku shook his head.
"A little bit of headache…I guess," Goku replied. He scanned the room again and looked at Tenpou. "How…" Goku wanted to ask but stop. He shook his head again and run his hand over his messy hairs as more headaches hit him. "What happened?" He finally asked weak.
"Well…Nataku brought you here. He said that you were fainted in his arms," replied Tenpou, smiling as Goku showed him a perplexed look. "Nataku is the Golden-Eyed kid whom you met before you fainted," said Tenpou knowing from the look of Goku face, it stated: Who the hell is Nataku?
"Oh!" Goku exclaimed, recalling everything that had occurred to him. "That kid…" He lowered his head and started to massage his throbbing head.
"Are you all right? You need anything, Goku?" Goku shook his head.
"Iie. I'm fine." Stated Goku as he got to his feet and walked towards the door when suddenly someone bumped into him. "ITEI!"
"Kuso! Watch where you're going, bakasaru!" Konzen on to his feet and glared at Goku.
"You're the one who should watch where you're going!"
"Ch. Seems that you finally gained your health," said Konzen.
"I'm becoming more dizzy thanks to you!"
"Humph!" Konzen ignored his words and walked towards his desk (frankly they WERE in his room), grabbed the papers and started to work on it. Goku get on his feet and frowned at Konzen.
"I'm going to take a walk," said Goku after along silence.
"Don't attack everyone every time you saw them," said Konzen, eyes glued to the papers. Goku snorted.
"I won't." and he walked outside leaving Konzen and Tenpou. There was a slight silence between them until broke by one of them.
"You are actually wanted to check on him, aren't you?" Tenpou asked, with a smile on his face.
"Don't start it, Tenpou," said Konzen. Tenpou smiled and walked outside leaving Konzen, snorted.
"Da#n I hate this place! There's nothing here but clouds! Hell I don't know where I am even though I know WHEN I am!" Goku grunted. He had been out of Konzen's room for thirty minutes and he didn't know where to go. He walked, walked and walked until he came across an empty room with a large doors wide open.
He peered inside to look. There was nothing in that room except a pillow at the middle of the room. Goku's eyebrow arch. "What the?" He unintentionally stepped inside and picked up the pillow. "A pillow? What is a pillow doing in here?"
"HEY!" someone shouted causing Goku to hide the pillow in his clothe. "What are you doing here?" the 'someone' who happened to be Zenon walked towards him. Goku turned around to face him and give astonished look. "Hmm…? Haven't seen you around. Who are you?" Zenon asked.
"This must be Zenon 500 years ago…Don't attack…don't attack…don't attack…" Goku thought. "Nothing!" he exclaimed.
"Hmm…" Zenon stared at him intently that Goku felt Zenon was staring at his naked figured. "Well, you better get out of this room. This is a Room of Gift. A forbidden room. Now get out before someone else saw you," Zenon said. Goku nodded and quickly walked outside, with pillow in his arms. "What a strange kid…"
"A pillow in Room of Gift?" Kenren looked at Goku perplex. Goku nodded and took out the pillow from his clothe and showed it to Kenren. "From ROOM OF GIFT?" Goku nodded again. "Are you SURE?" He nodded again. "PRETTY SURE?" This times no nodding. He grabbed the pillow and pouted.
"If you don't believe me, fine!"
"Of course I don't believe you! No one ever got ANYTHING from ROOM OF GIFT for a long time!"
"What do you mean?"
"That room is a WEIRD room! No one dared to enter it even though the door wide open door as if it said - You can come in! I won't bite you! – Only highest rank of GOD can enter that room. The others turned crazy."
"………………………There's one kami who didn't turned crazy. Is he a high rank too?"
"Who?"
"Zenon. Know him?" said Goku. Kenren winced at the name.
"Him? Yeah…I guess so," said Kenren, uneasy.
"What's wrong with him? You hate him?"
"Kinda…"
"Oh well, he is a mean guy. He will try to destroy Tenkai with Homura," said Goku, hugging the pillow.
"………………………"
"By the way, why did they call it the Room of Gift?" Goku asked.
"Well, from what I heard – mostly from Tenpou – That room always left THINGS for someone – or HIGH rank - to pick. Usually Holy things Kenren stopped and started to think. "Yeah, right. High Rank Kami always went there to check whether there's a THINGS in there. Last time the THINGS had caused chaos in Tenkai and since then, no THING in the room anymore."
"So that's why you surprised when I said I got this pillow from that room."
"Yes. Good! You understand actually! Haha!" Kenren laughed.
"I'm not always stupid, you know!"
"Whatever. Anyway," Kenren's expression turned serious, "We better tell Konzen and Tenpou about this. This is serious, you know. If someone find out-"
"Kenren-sama!" A weak-look-kami appeared, panting at the door.
"Huh? What?"
"Emergency meeting! All kami been called!"
"!"
"Huh? What's going on?"
Kenren's pace really quick leaving behind a struggling-to-keep-up-with-Kenren-Goku. He kept stumbling though but managed to get up as quickly as possible before another kami behind him step on him. They arrived at wide grassy area which made Goku surprised. Heck! He didn't know there's a place like this here! This place does make Goku comfortable rather than in Konzen's room. Or Tenpou's library (Goku winced at that thought – Books everywhere).
There, Kenren and Goku saw Konzen besides Kanzeon Bosatsu who sit at her usual chair at the middle of the area with thousands of kami surrounding her. Kenren tried to spot the brunette and saw him besides Homura and Zenon. He made the look again. He walked towards them and patted Tenpou's shoulder. "Oh, Kenren. Where have you been?" Smiled.
"Usual," Kenren replied, ogling Zenon who repay back the ogle.
"Have you seen Goku?" Tenpou asked.
"Huh? He's right behind-" Kenren turned around only found a big fat kami glaring at him. "What the? He's behind me a minute ago!" Or a seconds ago.
"Oh my. Konzen will get mad if we didn't find Goku. He had been looking for him before the meeting," said Tenpou and grabbed Kenren to search for their NEW young friend.
"Oh yeah, Goku found something at the Room of Gift," Kenren said. Tenpou stopped abruptly; spin around to face Kenren with horror. "What?"
"This meeting is to catch that someone who stole THINGS from that room!"
"Holy." Kenren started to look for young boy around thousands of kami when suddenly his eyes fall on the boy next to Konzen. "Goku!
"Neh Konzen," Goku called Konzen, startling him. He looked at the boy next to him.
"You! Where have you been, bakasaru!" Whacking Goku on his hand, enough to attract all the eyes to him.
"Mou! I was with Kenren! Don't hit me!" exclaimed Goku before Konzen gave him another whack. "Itei na…that's hurt! You-you-you namaguza bouzu!" Some of the kami laughed while Kanzeon was giggling. Goku startled to look at grumpy face of Konzen. His vein popped, his lips twitched and his ears seems giving out a smoke. This expression enough to make Goku gulped, smiled sheepishly and received another whack. Hard. There, another headache visited his head again. "Ouch…" He held his pained head, slipping the pillow to the ground. Konzen, noticing the pillow, not the headache Goku, picked up the pillow, astonished, and looked at Goku.
"Where did you get this?" Frankly he had never seen the pillow before. It's not from his room nor Goku's room. 'Probably from Kenren,' he thought.
"Now, let's begin our meeting. I must thanks my nephew for entertaining us for a while before long boring meeting," said Kanzeon, smiling. Some of the kami also smiled. "Our meeting today is to discuss about the thief who had stole two THINGS from the Room of Gift," she said. All the kami started to whisper against each other. Goku gulped.
'Oh no! I didn't mean to steal the pillow!' thought Goku.
"It seems that this thief is very clever. Not only does he steal it without the guard noticing but TWICE, he stole the THINGS," Kanzeon said. Goku gulped more, attracting Konzen's attention and looked at him in curious. Goku smiled sheepishly and received deadly glare from Konzen before he turned away from him. "I want all of you to tell me if you saw any suspicious looking person walking around the Room of Gift, you can tell me right now," she said, smiled.
Everyone whispered again and some of them looked and pointed at Goku which enough to make him uncomfortable while some of them don't have any clue. 'I didn't steal it…I didn't steal it…I didn't steal it…I didn't steal it…' Goku thought in his mind, closing his eyes.
"Oi." Startled, Goku looked at his NEW master.
"Huh?"
"If you still feel dizzy, why don't you go to your room and take some rest," said Konzen. Goku's eyes widened in surprised. Of course he does! Konzen never cared about him before and always mean to him yet now…he being nice to him. This made Goku felt more uncomfortable. If everyone knew he stole the THINGS, everyone will blame Konzen for keeping him and might imprisoned Konzen and that was all because of him. Hell…he felt guilty. Maybe he should tell Konzen before everyone else does. That way, Konzen can protect him because he told the truth. Or the opposites because Konzen always hated him. "What?" Konzen startled Goku.
"Um…I need to tell you something," said Goku, most likely whisper though.
"About what?"
"The…THINGS," Konzen's eyes widened in curious.
"What…about it?"
"I…I…I…I…I…" Goku stammered.
"You what?"
"I stole it." Soft.
"What?" Konzen couldn't hear due to the loud whisper from the kami. 'Why can't they just stop whispering? And hell it's loud!' thought Konzen.
Goku gulped. He had to tell him. NOW and he means NOW. "I stole the THINGS," said Goku, softer than before.
"What? I can't hear you! Why can't you talk louder, you bakasaru!" shouted Konzen. 'Hell saru! Since when he have a low voices! Wish he have MY Goku's voices!' thought Konzen.
"I STOLE THE THINGS!" That's it, Goku cant stand anymore that he loses his temper due to Konzen calling him 'bakasaru!' that he said those words enough to make everyone turned to him. Konzen's eyes widened, shocked and at that time he wished this Goku in front of him didn't have a loud voice as his Goku. 'Shoot.'
Yeah! Long version of the PAST! All right. Reviews!
