Yay!
This'll be the 10th!
Woot!
===============================================================
Goku couldn't sleep.
Monstrous dreams haunted him and he had a terrible feeling that something bad was going to happen. Goku got up and scurried down the hallway to Sanzo's room.
He opened the door and peered in. "S-Sanzo?" he whispered timidly.
Sanzo's eyes opened and he rolled over on his back to see who was there.
"What'd you want?" he grumbled.
"I...can't sleep."
"What do you want me to do about it?"
Goku lowered his head shamefully. "Can...I sleep in here?"
Sanzo sat up and eyed Goku. He then noticed the thunder and lightning. Sanzo was one of the few lucky people who could sleep through something like that.
"Fine...but just for tonight. Then it's back to sleeping on the couch. Got it?"
Goku smiled brightly and hopped onto the bed. "Thank you Sanzo!"
He gathered some of the covers and wrapped them around both he and Sanzo. Goku lay down and immediately went to sleep.
Sanzo lay back down and stared out the window. He could remember countless times when he too snuck into this room to find comfort from a storm or a bad dream.
He turned over onto his side facing the door. Lying right there, face to face with him was Goku sleeping peacefully.
Sanzo stared for a moment. He looked so...sad...when he slept. Goku was so much more different when he was awake.
Goku looked as though he never had a peaceful nights sleep in his life.
The sound of thunder crashed through the night and it made Goku jump.
Gold met violet.
Sanzo lay a comforting hand on Goku's shoulder, assuring him he was indeed, safe and sound. Goku nodded off and slept against Sanzo.
An image flashed before Sanzo, of a child laying in a fetal position on top of a blonde-haired priest. The child's eyes were hidden by his wild brown hair, but his tears were visible.
The image went away and Sanzo laid his hand back on Goku's shoulder. He then, fell asleep.
===============================================================
After kissing Hakkai goodbye, Kanan got into her car and began to drive off to Sanzo's apartment.
She turned up the radio to a good song and began to sing along with it.
She parked her car across the street from Sanzo's and got out.
Kanan went to walk up the stoop steps when she felt someone pull her into the alley. She let out a terror-filled scream.
Sanzo's eyes immediately opened when he heard it. He jumped up and ran down the apartment steps and opened the door outside. He was followed by a very un-aware and tired Goku.
"Kanan!" Sanzo yelled and ran into the alley.
Both stopped in horror by what they saw.
Kanan lay there motionless in a pool of blood. A dark haired man hovered above her holding a bloody knife.
"You bastard!" Sanzo hollered and charged at the man.
He dodged Sanzo's punch, but unexpected Goku's attack.
The monkey had immediately woken up after seeing Kanan and charged the figure.
"Son Goku...So I see I have gotten your attention. Good." He smiled.
Goku stood up strait. "You killed Kanan! You're gonna pay for that you bastard!"
The man walked out of the darkness and showed his true self in the light.
Sanzo and Goku were both equally surprised by who stood before them.
"You..." Goku sneered. "I'll kill you!"
He charged his opponent, but this time, Goku's attack was evaded.
A shot was heard.
Sanzo held the banishing gun in his hand and it had just barley missed his targets head, yet he knew it was useless...since the banishing gun could only hurt demons.
"Care to explain what the fuck is going on? Homura?"
===============================================================
Hakkai and Gojyo decided it would be a nice surprise if they showed up at Sanzo's before he went to work. They hadn't hung out at the bar in a few days and since Goku was a part of the 'crew' now, it was only fair he would be treated to the same stuff.
They pulled up to the apartment building when they suddenly saw something in the alley.
"What the..." said Gojyo.
They both jumped out of Hakaryu and raced for the alley. Hakaryu followed.
Both arrived and saw what was going on. Hakkai spotted his fiancé lying motionless.
"Ka...nan..." he gasped and ran to her side.
"Well...seem's as though the gang's all here. Cho Hakkai...Sha Gojyo...Genjyo Sanzo...and Son Goku." Homura grinned.
"You...you killed her." Hakkai said.
"Just a diversion...to lead him here." Homura pointed to Goku.
"What does the monkey have to do with this!?" Gojyo spat.
Homura just smiled and snapped his fingers. "Lets just see how well you all fare against this before we start 20 questions, eh?"
Four demons appeared from behind Homura.
"Attack." Homura laughed.
Each had their own demon to fight.
Goku had an idea. Maybe if they all had the items that Goku had from 500 years ago, they would be able to fight.
The monkey took off into the building followed by the demon he was fighting.
He quickly searched his bag and found what he needed. Goku opened the window and yelled out to his friends. "Here!"
He threw the sutra to Sanzo, the three ear cuffs to Hakkai and the three piece Jakujou to Gojyo.
"What the fuck are you doing chucking a broken stick at me!?" Gojyo yelled.
Hakkai just stared at the three ear cuffs lying in his hand.
"Put the stick together and fight with it, jack ass!" Sanzo growled at Gojyo.
Goku opened the window a little more and jumped out, landing on the dumpster behind Homura.
Homura quickly signaled the demons to attack Goku.
"Not so fast buddy...we weren't even fully introduced." Gojyo smirked as he grabbed one demon by his shirt. He chopped the demons head off using the Jakujou.
After putting the ear cuffs on, Hakkai shot a chi beam from his hands while trying to grab another demon. It 'accidentally' hit it.
"...Whoa..." said Hakkai as he studied his hands.
Sanzo fired the gun at a demon that was right behind Hakkai. "These bastards are nothing..." he grumbled.
Suddenly, a demon jumped out from behind Goku and grabbed him. Goku yelped in surprise.
Sanzo aimed the gun at the demon.
"NO! DON'T SHOOT!" Goku hollered. He knew if the bullet from the banishing gun hit him, Sanzo would find out he was a demon.
It was too late. Sanzo had already fired and it hit the demon in the heart. Goku was tossed to the side as the demon burst into dust.
Homura laughed. He knew exactly why Goku didn't want Sanzo to shoot.
"Goku...are you...hurt?" Homura smirked.
Goku stood up and lowered his head.
"Why don't you tell them a little more about yourself...?" Homura glared at Goku.
Goku faced his friends. On his cheek was the scar that the bullet had grazed past. Blood trickled down his face and onto the ground.
"You're a..." Gojyo gasped.
"I wanted to tell you but I..."
"You were too afraid what they would do if they found out what kind of a creature you really were." Homura finished.
Goku turned to him. "This is all your fault!"
Goku heard another shot ring out and he looked down at the ground and saw a bullet lodged dangerously close to him.
Sanzo pointed the gun at Goku. "So that's what that thing on your head is for...it's a power limiter...I knew something was wrong with you. Your kind are the ones responsible for sending my life strait to hell...which is where I'm about to send you..."
Goku couldn't believe the things Sanzo was saying to him. He knew if he wanted to live, he had to run...but his legs wouldn't respond. He was too heart broken to care whether he lived or not.
Sanzo was aiming right for Goku's heart and was about to pull the trigger when an image flashed before him.
===============================================================
They had set up camp a little ways away from a stream.
Sanzo sat on a rock near it watching the water rush by. Goku sat beside him on another rock.
Goku was bright and cheery as usual and he cast a home-made fishing rod into the water.
"Sanzo?" Goku asked.
"What...?"
"I've just now realized...the journeys almost over...and I'm kinda sad."
Sanzo eyed him. "Why're you sad about it?"
"I've had a lot of fun...believe it or not...and I'm not sure what we'll do when we get back. Gojyo and Hakkai live so far away and I've grown so attached to them...I'll miss Gojyo and me always fighting and laughing, Hakkai's cooking and his smile." Goku paused for a moment. "Sanzo...when this is all over...will we still be together? Like before?"
Sanzo sighed. "I guess if I don't want to have to put up with that annoying voice of yours, I'll have to bring you back with me."
Goku laughed. Sanzo could never understand why Goku was never hurt by the things he said to him. Maybe Homura was right. Goku only clung to him because he validated the boy's existence. Sanzo supposed saying insulting things to the heretic was better than saying nothing at all.
"I say we all live together when we get back! And then we'll never have to part!" Goku chirped.
Sanzo rolled his eyes. "Maybe..." he sighed.
Goku looked up at Sanzo "But...you and I will always be together...Right?"
Sanzo sighed and ruffled the boy's hair. "Sure."
===============================================================
Right then,
Sanzo lost the will to pull the trigger.
He dropped the gun and watched as Homura glided past him.
Hakkai held Kanan, who was just barley alive, in his arms.
Gojyo sneered as Homura exited the alley.
Their attention turned to the young demon standing there. It began to rain and Sanzo's mood went from bad to worse. Goku walked to the blonde man and looked up with him. Gold eyes filled with sorrow starred as Violet ones glared back.
"Get out of here..." Sanzo growled.
"Sanzo I-"
"GO AWAY YOU WORTHLESS ANIMAL!" Sanzo barked.
Goku began to run. Gojyo and Hakkai looked at Sanzo.
"Why the FUCK did you do that to him!? He only hid it from you because he knew THIS would happen!" Gojyo hollered.
Sanzo didn't answer. He just starred at the ground.
"Please...stop fighting." Hakkai's eyes were filling with tears. Kanan was dieing and Goku was gone.
Hakaryu turned into the jeep and they all got in. Gojyo drove so Hakkai could be with Kanan.
Sanzo held back the tears he so longed to shed.
===============================================================
Goku had run until he couldn't breathe. His chest hurt and his legs gave out from under him.
He stumbled into the park and laid there. Cold, wet and alone.
"Alone again are we?" said a voice.
It was Homura none the less.
"Get away from me." Goku snapped.
Homura playfully jumped back. "Boy...from this view you look like a drown animal, which is what you probably are anyway."
"Shut up." Goku growled.
"You really are quite pathetic looking you know."
"You're the reason I lost my home..."
Homura sat down on a bench. "Can't lose what you never had..."
"Shut up!"
"You really think Sanzo took you in because he wanted to? He only did it so you'd shut the hell up."
"NO!" Goku shouted.
"You're a demon. No one wants an animal like you around. A heretic animal for that matter."
Goku hadn't heard that word used in a long time. "Stop it!" Goku put his hands to his ears.
"What's the matter Goku? The truth too hard for you?"
Goku got up and started to run. Homura caught up and bashed him over the head, knocking him out.
"Can't have you running away. Not when I'm so close to creating the world I've longed for so long..."
Homura picked the boy up and carried him back into the city.
===============================================================
