For Real By: cool_kitsune

Author's notes: This is my first Saiyuki fic!!!! Apparently, they are reincarnated as. themselves. no change in name. and the sort coz I'm damn tired of thinking of decent Japanese names, do you hear me?! The Sanzo- Ikkou are in High School and they're just like any normal little High School Guys.. But.. They'll soon discover the unusual powers they have!!! Gojyo is still a taboo child guy, Goku and Hakkai are youkai (people here don't know that demons still exist!!!!) and Mr. Worldly Monk is still droopy-eyed.. but Sanzo ain't a monk here and I don't care any less!!! * laughs like mad *

PG-13 for the cussing, swearing and all of those damned things I don't even know yet..

Slight yaoi. but I dunno the pairing YET. but absolutely positively it won't be HakkaixGojyo. I hate those things!! I like yaoi but not the pairings of my favorite bishounen!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Saiyuki and any of the characters in it. but I guess I'll own some of the characters I'll soon make up.

Dedicated to Cho Hakkai, "For Real" is inspired from the yaoi manga Kazuya Minekura made. although I can't quite remember the title. I just hope you guys like it!!!

Warning: Umm. there'll be some OOCs here. Don't tell me I didn't warn you. Oh yeah like I said, some of the characters will be cussing and swearing soon.

For Real Chapter I

Cho Hakkai, a sophomore, rummaged through his books in his library. (as I'd call it. but Gojyo and the others would probably say it's a damned mess. I just like to put a little bit of Tenpou in this Hakkai) "Hmm. I wonder where I put it. I know it's here somewhere.. I know I put it here or maybe there.. Or elsewhere. Ugh. I don't know!!" The youth said, clutching his aching head, his glasses were in his room so how the hell is he supposed to find the damned book?? Hakkai continued to rummage through all of his books and gets tired of it. "I have to find it. the book report will be due soon. what am I supposed to do." Don't panic. I never panic. A voice came through his head.. "What the? Whose voice was that? Hmm. I must be hearing things.." He stood up and planned to look at the other shelves but he tripped over a book. "Itte.. That stung.. Hmmm. what's this book???" He grabs the book and looks at the title. "Aaah. here it is!! I really should wear my glasses more!!!" He smiles sheepishly.

Suddenly, the door opens and a youth with red hair came in. "Gojyo, good morning!!!" (Gojyo's hair is that of Kenren's while Hakkai's hair is Hakkai's hair.) "Hey, Hakkai! It's a Saturday! Why won't we go to Sanzo and Goku's apartment?" Gojyo told him. "You're quite early today. I see you woke up earlier than usual. Well that's a good start right?" Hakkai replied with a cheerful smile on his face.

"Stop muttering some gibberish (what a mean thing to say to Hakkai!!) and get your glasses. We'll head towards Mr. Worldly Sanzo's place." Said Gojyo.

"But." "But what??" "I haven't eaten breakfast yet. and I haven't taken a bath yet." "Gosh, Hakkai!!! It's ten o' clock!!! And you haven't eaten?! Haven't your parents called you to breakfast?!" "Iie. they left early in the morning. How'd you get in here anyway?? The doors are all locked!" "Err. you see. I uhh entered through the window!!" "Okay. Have you eaten breakfast?" "Yep!! If you won't mind it's my pleasure to eat again!!" "Sure!! What do you want to eat?" "Meat buns would be good!" "Okay. You wait at the living room." "Sure!"

Hakkai went to his room and got his glasses. He yawned. He hasn't been sleeping much. I hope Gojyo wouldn't notice. He'd be worried again. thought Hakkai. He then went in their kitchen and got ready to cook.

Gojyo sat comfortably on the couch and turned on the TV. "Wonder where the bikini channel is." Gojyo said with the usual hentai smile on his face. He scanned the channels and didn't get pleased. "Ne, Hakkai! Where the hell's the bikini channel?!" Gojyo yelled frustrated.

Hakkai looked at Gojyo from the kitchen and smiled. "Why would my parents want such a channel?? They didn't like it so they changed the cable. You know them."

"Yeah, such decent people. Like you. Sheesh. I'll just watch some cartoons. or anime' I might find a hentai one." Gojyo sniggered.

Hakkai smiled in his cooking. Gojyo could be very funny even though he has his ways. He smokes and drinks alcohol even though he's still a minor. He even sleeps with girls!

A few minutes later, Hakkai handed some of the meat buns he cooked to Gojyo. "Thanks." Said Gojyo when he grabbed the meat bun. "Mmm! These are good!!!" Gojyo said as he took a bite.

Flattered, Hakkai smiled and said, "Thanks." And took a bite out of his own meat bun.

They finished eating. Gojyo remained at the living room as Hakkai took a bath. "Hmmm. damn TV. can't find any good hentai stuff. sheesh. this is stupid.. Dammit." He sighs hopelessly and slouches on the couch. He closes his eyes and envisions a group of people who are on a jeep.. one looked like him but with longer hair, one looked just like Goku, one looked like Hakkai, and the last one looked like Sanzo. The red-haired was teasing the young boy and laughing like crazy. The monk was getting very annoyed and the brunette was smiling and saying "How peaceful." Those things sound familiar.. In fact, those things happen to them everyday. (Well, except for the jeep thing..) Does this show the future?? If so, I have a great imagination or maybe I'm telepathic just like the fortunetellers.. Maybe not the future since, why would we ride such a vehicle?? There are nice cars now like the Ferrari and the BMW and the Mercedes Benz.. Why in the world would we ride such a thing?? And the color is green. I assume that's the brunette's. Maybe it shows our past selves?? Naahh. That thing wouldn't just pop in my mind. Let's just say I have a great imagination.. Yeah, that's it. thought Gojyo. But wait, what he was thinking was right!! Dammit Gojyo.. doesn't believe in reincarnations.. doesn't believe those things are for real.

"Err, Gojyo? Gojyo??" Hakkai tapped at the man's shoulder. "Urk! What is it, Hakkai?!" Gojyo opened his eyes. "What were you thinking of, Gojyo?? It seems you were deep in thought. I don't see you like this usually. Daijobu desu ka???" "Yep.. I'm as dandy as ever. Lemme tell you on the way to Sanzo's house." "Sure, I'll be delighted to hear your fantasies, Gojyo. Well, except for the hentai ones.." Hakkai smiled at him. Gojyo smiled back.

The two buddies went onto Sanzo's house and on the way.. Gojyo said, "Ne, Hakkai, do you think reincarnations are true??" "I don't know Gojyo.. why'd you bring up such a question?" "Well, it concerns the one I was thinking of a while ago. I don't easily drift of to such imagination thingy. But it just came in the instant I closed my eyes." "Sou ka.. hmm.. there is no scientific proof but I kind of believe about it. Tell me about what you thought a while ago." "You see.. when I closed my eyes, I saw somewhat a vision of people just like the four of us. In a green jeep, the one who looked like me was teasing the one who looked like Goku. Which normally happens everyday." "I see.. Go on.." "Then the one who looked like Sanzo was getting pissed off.. The one who looked like you, was smiling and saying, "How peaceful."" "I see.. I do say that.. hmm.. it can't show the future. I don't know.. Let's not talk about this matter now, Gojyo.. I'm suddenly starting to hear things again.." "Again..??" "Yeah, someone of my voice is telling me, that I must not forget the past. It's really strange and when I act like not myself, someone says that I shouldn't act not like myself.. It's just weird.. Let's not put up the topic yet.. But wait, what if Sanzo and Goku are thinking the same things?? It may not be a coincidence, Gojyo." "Yeah, you're right." "Let's just try to forget about things. Maybe we're just having some strange visions.. It might pass." "Yeah, might is the word."

The two arrive at Sanzo's apartment and knocks at the door. A frustrated Sanzo opens the door. "What do you want??" Goku suddenly bursts out of nowhere and greets them cheerfully. "Ohayou!!! Do you have any food, Hakkai, Gojyo?? Do you?? I'm really hungry you know."

"I can see why Sanzo-sama is so frustrated when we visit." Gojyo said coolly. "Don't give me this bullshit as a greeting early in the morning, Gojyo." Said Sanzo seriously. "Or if you want me to get my gun and blast you, you may continue spouting out this bullshit." "I-I'll pass the offer. No thanks." Gojyo sweat dropped. "So cheerful today, huh, Goku??" said Hakkai, ignoring the conversation of the two. "Uh-huh!! Could you buy some food later, huh?? Please Hakkai!!" pleaded the hyperactive Goku. "It would be my pleasure, Goku."

"Oi, could we all go to the park?? I got to meet Rinei there." Gojyo said. "Rinei? Isn't she our classmate who has a BIG crush on you, Gojyo?" asked Hakkai. Yep. She asked me to meet her there. She says it's urgent. I bet she'll say she loves me."

"Rinei-neechan?? Really?? She's real nice to me and treats me to lunch!! I wanna go too!!" Goku said cheerfully. "Ch'! I don't care. I'd just read my newspaper." Grunted Sanzo. "But Sanzo!! You should go too!! C'mon, Sanzo!! Please!!! Sanzo!!! Ne, Sanzo!!" Goku annoyingly says. "URUSAI!! Baka-saru!!!!!!!!" Sanzo hit Goku on the head with his paper fan so fast nobody could ever count how many times he did.

All Gojyo and Hakkai could do is laugh. Yeah, it could be a very funny sight. "ITTE!!! You don't have to hit me that hard, Sanzo!!" Goku said while clutching his head. "Of course I have to." Replied a dull Sanzo.

"C'mon, people, I bet Rinei's waiting." Gojyo said as he led the way.

As they were walking, Goku suddenly asked, "Ne, Sanzo? What if you're hungry and in a desert and with other people with nothing to eat?" "Why are you asking such a question, baka-saru?" answered Sanzo, which is also a question. ^__^ "Well, you see.. I dream about four people and they're in a desert and they have nothing to eat. Poooor them." Replied Goku. "I don't give a care for those bastards. It's their own fault they're in that place." Grunted Sanzo again.

Gojyo and Hakkai looked at each other. Goku also had such visions. That means they're not the only ones. Sanzo is the last one to have such hallucinations.

"Say, uh.. Goku." Started Hakkai. "When do you have these dreams??" "Hmm. when I'm really hungry when I sleep. Why do you ask??" said Goku. "You're always hungry, saru." Gojyo commented. "But when I'm REALLY hungry!!" Goku said back. "Why do you ask again Hakkai??" "Eh? Nothing, Goku. I'm just interested." Answered Hakkai.

"There's Rinei-neechan!! Let's go!! She might treat us to lunch!!" Goku said excitedly. "Lunch?? It's still early, Goku." Said Hakkai. "Remember, Hakkai. You ate breakfast at 10:20 a.m. it's 11:00 already." Gojyo corrected Hakkai. "Oh yes!! Sorry, I seem to have forgotten." Hakkai laughed. "Ch'! C'mon, someone's waiting." Sanzo said. "Okay!!! Let's go!!! Let's go!! Rinei-neechan!!" Goku ran towards a girl with wonderful red hair. (seems like she's a half-breed too. hmmm.)

"Oh, hello there Goku-kun! Do you want lunch?" Rinei, the other half-breed in this story asked the hyperactive Goku. "Yeah!! That would be great!!!" nodded Goku. "Hello, Rinei-chan!! It's nice to see you!" greeted Hakkai politely. "Ch'!" said Sanzo as he lit a cigarette. "Hey, Rinei. How's your day?" asked Gojyo as he approached the other red- haired. "I-it was great, Gojyo-kun. Would you like me to treat you all to lunch?" Rinei said shyly. "Sure. That would be great, Rinei!" Gojyo winked at her. That action made her blush. "C'mon!! I want to eat!!" Goku hurried to the restaurant across the street. "Matte, Goku!!" Hakkai said as he ran after Goku. "Humph." Said the ever so lifeless and dull Sanzo. "So, shall we go??" Gojyo asked Rinei. "H-hai." Rinei said as they both went together. "Well, Gojyo-kun??" "Yeah?" "Iie, betsuni.."

They all reached the restaurant and sat at the nearest table as Goku ordered. "Ne, Gojyo-kun?" started Rinei. "What is it?" Gojyo asked coolly. "Well, do you have to take all of them? I mean, I said I'd meet YOU at the park. But, it's really okay." Said Rinei politely. "They're the ones who wanted to go. Especially the saru." "You're the one who asked us to go with you, you bastard!!!" Sanzo hit Gojyo on the head with his paper fan. "Okay, okay.. I did invite them. Sheesh. You really don't have to do that every time, Sanzo-sama." Growled Gojyo. "Of course I do. So you would keep your mouth shut." "Hihihihihihihi. You guys are really funny." Giggled Rinei. "I agree with you, Rinei-chan." Laughed Hakkai.

"I'm finished ordering!!" Goku hopped cheerfully towards their table. "I bet our table's gonna be filled with food that only Goku would eat." Gojyo sighed. "Goku, remember, we are not the ones paying." Said Hakkai, concerned about how much money Rinei's going to spend just for Goku's delight. "Iie, daijobu, Hakkai-san. It's my pleasure to treat you guys to lunch." Rinei said happily. "We'll repay you some other time, Rinei-chan. Don't worry." Hakkai said assuring. "Iie, you really don't have to, Hakkai-san. It's very nice of you to offer." Said Rinei. "Yeah, Hakkai. You don't have to be that nice always. Remember too much of everything is bad for you." Gojyo told Hakkai.

The food soon arrived which was really too much for five people. And Goku ate first and fast. "You heard that saru? Too much of food is bad for you. I'm putting that in my mind." Said Sanzo. "Eh?! No! That just can't be!!" refused Goku. "Of course it can be." Gojyo said. "No it can't! You wanna fight?!" "Put it on." At first, Gojyo and Goku only exchanged insults but it soon got to the point that they were almost fighting. "Heiwa desu ne." said Hakkai while sipping his tea. "URUSAI!! YOU TWO WANT TO DIE SO BADLY?!" said a very pissed off Sanzo. "Iie, we'll pass the offer." Said the two troublemakers in unison. Rinei just sweat dropped. She can't believe these people could stay alive if this happens everyday. "Is there something wrong, Rinei-chan?" asked Hakkai. "Iie, betsuni." She replied.

All of them finished eating. They all had a good lunch, well except for Sanzo since he is still pissed off from Goku and Gojyo's non-stop arguments, which had no sense at all.

~*~*~*~*~*

The sun was soon setting. The group was at the beach, watching the sun set. "This is a very wonderful day for me, Gojyo-kun." Rinei told him a wide smile shown on her face. "I really had a lot of fun. Thanks a lot for coming." The two thought they were alone at the spot but actually two pairs of eyes were watching them and two pairs of ears were listening to them.

Goku snickered. "They're having a good time, aren't they Hakkai?" "They sure look like it." Smiled Hakkai.

Sanzo was just sitting at a corner. Minding his own business not like two certain youkai.

(Back to Rinei and Gojyo) "Me too. I really had fun, Rinei. Thanks for inviting me." Gojyo replied. "Gojyo-kun, I.. I.. I really like you so much!" said Rinei her face all red like her flaming hair. "I knew that, Rinei." "Y-you did??? Oh!! This is so embarrassing!!" "No, it's not. I like you too. Well, not that much. But." their lips went nearer and they nearly kissed. But.
