Chapter Summary: Last chapter, Sanzo died (sorry all Sanzo fans! Hey, even I am a number 1 Sanzo fan too!), and his body went missing after one night....
~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"NANI?!?!" both Gojyo and Hakkai said in disbelief.

"Yeah. L...Last night....the body was..s-still on the b-b-bed...but...but..." Goku couldn't finish his sentence and broke out crying.

"Maa...maa...let's try finding for it or do something instead," Hakkai assured.

"I don't know....I already looked everywhere. The room, the toilet...but, he's D-D-DEAD! How can he move???" Goku said, still crying.

"Then, I guess we have no choice but to continue our journey without him..." Gojyo muttered.

"How can we? His body is missing!" Goku said, angrily.

"But can we help it? No, right?" Gojyo answered back.

"Well......" Goku said, and looked down.

"So, why don't we just continue our journey instead??? As long as he stays in our memory, that's it! No one can steal him away from our memory, kono baka saru!" Gojyo scolded.

"Then...let me get his harisen and gun...just for *memories*," Goku said.

After Goku left...

"Ne, Gojyo, you shouldn't be so hard on that boy," Hakkai said to Gojyo.

"Ch~." was the reply.

They decided to go to the city to get some food for their journey. When they were walking, Goku bumped into a person...

"Hoi! Do you use your pair of eyes when you're walking?!" the person said, irritated.

"Sorry..."Goku muttered, looking down to the ground. 'The voice!' he thought, and looked.
To his surprise, he saw a blonde guy at his early twenties, with violet eyes, a voice exactly like Sanzo's, wearing a crimson blouse with a matching 'overcoat', looking down at Goku's eyes.

"S-S-Sanzo!" Goku said. "How come?" he said, and wrapped his arms against Sanzo's wrist.

Instead of following Goku, "Sanzo" sweeped Goku's hands off his wrist and said, "Are you insane? I don't even know you! And, who the heck is the Sanzo guy? I'm Himura Rui. Now, get out of my way!" and took out his gun to threaten them.

All Gojyo and Hakkai could do was look with their mouths wide open.

"Oh, sorry. Rui-*sensei* (sensei can also be used as Mr.)," Goku said, with regret.

"Rui!" a lady's voice called out of no where. It was none other than the Scorpion Queen, of course. When she saw them, she plunged one of her arms onto Sanzo's shoulder and said, "Oh, it's you guys. Hehe." and said to Sanzo, "What took you so long? You said that you came out for a pack of ciggaretes, am I right?" and gave Sanzo a kiss on the cheek.

"It's YOU! What did you do to Sanzo?" Goku said, tears welling his eyes.

"Nothing much, actually. I just *took* his body, and revived him, that's all," she said casually.

"Not that simple, I suppose," Hakkai voiced out.

"Smart. And, I gave him some potion that will erase off ALL his memories of being a damn Sanzo after he's revived," she said, with a grin on her face.

"Kuso!" Gojyo said.

"What did you do with his weapons?" Hakkai said.

"Obviously, I took them along, can't you see?" she answered, motioning for the gun.

"Let's go," she said to Sanzo, and they turned to move.

"Not so fast," they heard Goku said, and his hands moved to where his gold band is.

Hakkai, realizing what will happen next, ran to Goku and stopped him. "No, Goku. You can't do it. This wouldn't help."

"But, how can I let this happen? Now, Sanzo is with our enemy fighting against us. Hakkai, please...please stop me somehow, later," Goku said, and took the band off. Now, even Hakkai backed off a few inches.

Then, once again, Goku evolved into Seiten Taisen. The Scorpion Queen kept on dodging his attacks. Meanwhile...

"Rui's" (Sanzo's) POV
~**~***~**~***~**~***~**~
This looks familiar. I've seen it somewhere. Somewhere. But, where? And who's that Sanzo that they're talking about. Ever since I woke up, I felt that something was missing in my mind. Yuri (the Scorpion Queen) said that she had rescued me from a forest and I was unconscious for a few days. But....something seems damn familiar! Damn it! Why can't a remember a single thing??? That youkai, hey, what's a youkai? How did I know that word? That...that "thing" is soo familiar yet untamed. There's someway you can tame it...someway...
~**~***~**~***~**~***~**~

"Shinu (Die!)!!!!!!!" the Seiten Taisen said and attacked the queen. Of course, the queen was no match for the youkai. So, she was scratched and scratched by the youkai.

"Goku. Enough," Hakkai said.

The youkai looked back.

"Enough means enough. She deadly hurt now. Stop now," Hakkai said slowly, knowing that his advice wouldn't be heard by the youkai's ears.

Instead, the Seiten Taisen dashed towards Hakkai and aimed for his chest. When he was a few inches to Hakkai's chest, his fist was blocked by a staff.

Standing there, blocking him, was a red-head named Gojyo, with his chained staff.

"Arigato (Thank you)," Hakkai said.

"Anytime!" Gojyo said with a wink and said, "Kono baka saru!!!" and fought with Goku.

Goku's movement was quick, and in seconds Gojyo was defeted by Goku. Goku puched Gojyo in the ribs and broke 2 of Gojyo's ribs.

"Kuso!!!" Gojyo shouted, and fell to the floor.

Now, Hakkai was left. Seiten Taisen started moving towards the queen, but something attacked him.

Hakkai.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Seiten Taisen shouted, and barged towards Hakkai. But, Hakkai was too fast, then, Hakkai got hold of Goku's head and (since Gojyo was the nearest to the band, and he was quite far away), said, "Gojyo! Quick! Pass Goku's headband! Quick!"

"Ah....ah..." Gojyo tried to reach for the band, but was too weak.

Without noticing, Goku punched Hakkai in his stomach and sent him flying to the wall.

While "watching" the incident, a lot of things flashed through Sanzo's mind. He remembered the time when he freed Goku from the rock prison, the time when they met Hakkai and Gojyo, then their journey, Goku turning into Seiten Taisen, how Goku got poisoned, how he was killed, then, until now.

"Goku," he said suddenly.

The youkai supposingly hearing his name, turned to look and charged towards Sanzo. Instead Sanzo dropped his gun, and waited for Goku to kill him. But, when Goku's fist *almost* touched Sanzo's pale cheeks, his hand was numb and somehow couldn't move. Then, the pale violet eyes faded and turned into the long, lost deep violet eyes. It was like time was frozen when the bright golden eyes met the deep violet eyes. Minutes later, a glow of shining golden light appeared swallowing both Sanzo and Goku inside. Inside the glow of light, without realizing what he's doing, Sanzo reached for Goku's head and automatically chanted something. Soon, another golden band appeared from Sanzo's hands onto Goku's head.

The Seiten Taisen soon changed back into Son Goku and and he fell down limply (asleep) on Sanzo's lap.

"Huh? What did I do?" Sanzo said.

"You...you......come here...you're mine!" the queen said, struggling to get up.

Without hesitating, Sanzo picked up his gun and shot it at the queen. In a split-second, she was demolished into ashes.

"Sanzo! You're back!" Hakkai said happily.

"Now, let's go back to the inn and get a doctor for Gojyo, and you carry Goku back, ne?"

"Why must I carry this saru here?" Sanzo moaned under his breath.

"Nani?" Hakkai said, turning back.

"Nothing."

In the room.....

"Ne, Sanzo," Goku said. (Sanzo and Goku shared a room, Hakkai and Gojyo shares another room)

"Nani?" Sanzo said looking up from his newpapers, with his reading glasses (so cute!).

"You look so cute in this," Goku said,pointing to the clothes that Sanzo's wearing. (note: this type of cute isn't the love type of cute..it's the normal type of cute...don't get me mistaken...)

"NANI?!" Sanzo thought he heard wrongly.

"Kawaii na!" Goku repeated, pointing to Sanzo's clothes again.

Sanzo walked to the bed, took out his harisen, and whacked Goku on the head and said, "KONO BAKA SARU!!!"

"Itai yo! Why did you do that???" Goku said.

"Don't you EVER say *that* word in front of Gojyo and Hakkai!" Sanzo shouted.

"Nani?" Hakkai came in, trying hard to not laugh.

"Did I hear my name?" Gojyo said, coming. "Didn't know that Sanzo is 'kawaii'!" he said, laughing.

BANG! Sanzo shot towards the ceiling. "Dont. You. EVER. Dare. To say. That in front of me! Or else, this bullet's gonna go through your stupid pea-brain!" he threatened.

"Ne, Sanzo. What's a pea-brain?" Goku asked with his all-so-innocent golden eyes.

"It means some that has brains like both of you!" Sanzo said, annoyed.

"Both of you? You mean Hakkai and Gojyo?"

"AH!!!!!!!!" Sanzo said, and went out of the room, with his clothes. Obviously, he went to change.

"See! You cockroach-head ero kappa! You made Sanzo go out of this room!" Goku said to Gojyo.

"Look who's talking! Kono baka saru!" Gojyo retorted.

"Maa...maa..." Hakkai said.

"Who cares 'bout that damn corrupted monk?!"

"He has a name! It's Sanzo! Sanzo! Sanzo! Sanzo!"

"Well....it isn't if you say so."

"Sanzo! Sanzo! Sanzo! Sanzo! Sanzo!"

A few rooms ahead, a blonde whose name was Sanzo was sneezing non-stop. Then, he decided to do it. His gun. BANG!

"Sanzo! Sanzo! San -" Goku stopped at the sound of a gun firing just a few rooms ahead.

"Maa...maa...let's just stop this," Hakkai said, with a smile.

"Urusai, Hakkai!" Gojyo said, and turned back to Goku.

"Hey, don't talk like that to Hakkai! Ero kappa!" Goku said. Well, it just goes on and on and on...

~End~
