Chapter 2: A New Addition
"AAAH, I`m hungry!" Goku stretched and yawned. "A-re?? Where is this place"? Gojou from the other bed turned and grumbled, "Baka, waking me up so early in the morning. Just like a stupid monkey." Hakkai, meanwhile asked, "How are you, Goku?" Goku answered, "Fine, but I`m sooooo hungry!" He bends over, groaning. He suddenly pop up."Sanzo! Lets go....ehh?? Where`s Sanzo?" He looked around the room. Gojou and Hakkai looked at each other and smiled (a little wickedly).
"Genjo-san, don`t move so much or I won`t be able to fasten the bandage properly!" complained Yuuki as she wrapped a bandage around Sanzo`s arm. "Nobody asked you to. Get off," Sanzo snapped. "You should be happy, I saved you you know," said Yuuki as she went to the other side of the room to get more bandages. "I didn`t need your saving," he answered back. Yuuki sighed inwardly then started towards Sanzo. Sanzo, meanwhile, in a reflex motion moved his chair backwards. Yuuki walked on but suddenly slipped on Sanzo`s slipper (which he accidentally left on the floor) and letting out a yell, landed right on Sanzo. Her lips landed right on Sanzo`s lips, causing them both to kiss involuntarily.
The door to the room burst opened and Goku ran in. " Sanzo! I`m awfully....hungry??!" He stared openmouthed. Hakkai came in, "We`re going shopp-" He too stopped in his tracks. "Ouch watch where you stop, Hakkai!" Gojou shouted. He walked in then stared too. " Sanzo.....!!"
Sanzo looked at them in horror and with a swipe, pushed Yuuki off. "Haha, who would have thought Sanzo would change his mind about women!" Goku and Gojou looked at each other and laughed. Even Hakkai smiled. Sanzo, red with anger, whipped up his shoureijuu and fired at them. The first two shots exploded past Gojou and Goku`s head by a centimetre. They both jumped back, hugging each other with fright.
"Shut up! I`ll kill you both now!" Gojou and Goku both ran for dear lives outside, with Sanzo after them firing like a maniac. Hakkai looked at them, and went over to help Yuuki up from the floor. "Daijoubuu desu ka?" He inquired politely. "My back!! GENJO SANZO !!" With that she took up her bow and the container of arrows, and rushed out cursing. Hakkai looked extremely surprised, then smiled and shook his head ." Ya-re, ya-re they are really troublesome,aren`t they Hakuryuu?" His little pet dragon, squeaked in response.
An hour later, they were all seated at the dining table, with Goku gobbling up as much food as fast as he could. Hakkai, always the sensible one, had gone out for his 'shopping' while the rest were running around trying to kill each other. Gojou sat by one side with his leg up on the chair, and a huge blue-black bump on his eye. He looked extremely sulky. Sanzo and Yuuki were facing each other from opposite sides of the table, one holding a gun, the other a bow and arrow, shooting each other distasteful glances. Hakkai meanwhile, sat and ate like nothing was wrong.
"Ah, Yuuki-san, where are your family? I haven`t seen them anywhere," Goku said with his mouth full." Don`t talk with your mouth full in front of ladies, stupid monkey." Gojou punched Goku on the head. "Actually I don`t have any. I live alone," she answered not taking her eyes off Sanzo. "That figures, who could live with her," Sanzo commented. Yuuki stiffened, pulling harder at the bowstring. Hakkai, grinning sheepishly said, " Yuuki-san don`t you think you should eat? We thank you very much for your hospitality, we will get going soon." "Going?!" Yuuki turned to Hakkai in surprise and excitement. Of course in her excitement, she forgot she was holding the bowstring and let go. The arrow shot through Sanzo`s huge arm sleeve, and in that distraction he accidentally pressed the trigger which grazed Yuuki`s hair. If Yuuki had not moved at that moment, I don`t know what else could have happened.
But Yuuki didn`t notice it at all. She stared at Hakkai with huge, and I mean HUGE pleading eyes." Oh Hakkai-san, please let me join your excursion! Please, please!" Hakkai looked apologetically, "I`m sorry but I`m not the one to decide. Sanzo is." Without wasting a moment, Yuuki ran over to Sanzo, who was trying to pull out the arrow which had somehow got stuck in the sleeve. She shook Sanzo (violently I might say in her excitement), "Genjo-san, Genjo-san, please please let me join you all !" "No way." He replied fiercely. "Oh please please please, I won`t bring any trouble at all please please please." she begged. "I said NO." he answered. Yuuki looked down, and just as suddenly looked up straight at Sanzo`s eyes with her HUGE shining pleading eyes. "Genjoooooooo...." she pleaded.
"Aww, Sanzo, you could let her come. She`s not bad," said Gojou. " Yeah since she saved you and all, " piped Goku. Sanzo turned with murderous eyes, and he quickly stuttered, " I mean, ah, she can take care of us too." "I think you may have to do that Sanzo, " Hakkai put in.
Sanzo looked at all of them and looked back at the huge shining pleading eyes. He sighed sharply, "Follow if you want, and that`s for repaying you for saving me. We don`t owe each other now." " Whooopeee! Thanks Genjo!" Yuuki jumped up and danced all around the room. Sanzo looked extremely murderous. Hakkai saw, and again said, " Aah, ya-re, ya-re.... we are in for a happy time."
They all got ready to go off after breakfast. Hakuryuu, Hakkai`s dragon transformed into their green Jeep. Gojou and Goku climbed in, with insulting remarks at each other. Then Hakkai climbed in. "Where are those two love birds?" Gojou asked. Then Sanzo`s blonde hair, glinting in the sum could be seen coming out from the door, with Yuuki hanging around him. Sanzo took resolute steps towards the Jeep, but before he got to his place in the front seat, Yuuki jumped in there first. Sanzo, absolutely nearing his boiling point said, " That`s my place, get off." And he brandished his gun. Yuuki, a little horrified at Sanzo`s expression jumped to the back seat landing on Gojou`s lap. "Owwwwwwww!" Gojou exclaimed. "Keep in mind I wasn`t obeying you, it was just too uncomfortable up front." Yuuki said, folding her arms in front of her. Sanzo climbed up without a word and didn`t look at her.
The jeep rattled off, towards the west, with lots of grumbling from its occupants.
