A/N: -_-'' gomen nasai, minna-san… I know the ending of the *new* chapter 3 is a bit abrupt… sorry… anyway, in this chapter; Nataku gets active on helping his friend... and so does everybody else. So, it's kind of a Nataku chapter, this one…

Chapter IV: Determination and Valuable Information
Nataku stared at the locker door and sigh, //man, I wish I didn't offer him that… I have no idea what to do…// he thought as he walked to his next class. He has business management next. He opened the door and sat down in front of the computer. A few minutes later, he looked up and saw Sanzo walk in. Nataku watched Sanzo sit in front of him.
"What?" Sanzo asked, without turning around to look at him.
"Eh?"
"What are you staring at?" Sanzo repeated, scowling.
"Erm… nothing…" Nataku said weakly as he buried his face into a book. A while later, the class started to fill in. Nataku kept looking at Sanzo every five seconds.
"What?" Sanzo asked again, but this time he turned around. "Hurry up and tell me, I have other things to do." He added impatiently as he saw Nataku's astonished reaction.
"About the party…"
"The party, or the saru?"
"Uh… both…" Nataku scratched his head. "Just let Goku come and attend." He added quickly. Sanzo paused for a while, while staring at him with his famous sharp stare. Nataku fidgeted a little, but stared back at him stubbornly.
"No." Sanzo said flatly.
"Why not?"
"I don't have time to drop him off and pick him up, so late at night." Sanzo glowered heavily. "I have things to do."
"Things to do, or too lazy to?" Nataku smirked.
"Both." Sanzo said, but turned around again as his mobile phone started beeping discreetly. Nataku watched Sanzo, planning to irritate him some more. He was surprised to see Sanzo's mouth contract into a very faint smile, but disappeared quickly as he read the message. "Beat it, kid. I'm busy." Sanzo glared.
"Yes sir." Nataku said, but his mouth curled into a sly smile. // Maybe I could eat Goku's lunch after all…//
* later *
Nataku looked for Gojyo in the dining hall. He saw Gojyo standing next to the door with a bunch of girls, who were all giggling. Nataku took a deep breath, knowing that Gojyo would NEVER forgive him for interrupting he cautiously approached. He stood there staring at Gojyo until he was noticed. Nataku waited patiently for Gojyo's fan club to disperse, Gojyo raised an eyebrow at him.
"What is it?"
"I know something… well, I think I do… about Sanzo… but you have to confirm it first by answering a few questions…" Nataku said, staring at him in a superior but stubborn way.
Gojyo gave in, "What? Ask ahead."
"Does Sanzo's mobile phone receive messages often?"
"I think so…"
"Is Sanzo always going somewhere or is always busy? And, does he come home late?"
"Yes." Gojyo nodded thoughtfully. "He also locks himself up all the time."
Nataku smirked, then he gave a small laugh. "Wanna know something VERY interesting about Sanzo??"
Gojyo's eyes widened with intrigue, "What do you have?"
"It's gonna cost ya…"
"Price?"
"You need to help me convince Sanzo to let Goku come to the party."
Gojyo gave a hollow laugh, "No can do, kiddo. Nope…"
Nataku shrugged, "Okay, that's fine…" he said carelessly but choosing the words carefully, "I suppose you don't really care if Sanzo's… nah, well… about his private life… I guess I'll be seeing you…"
Gojyo choked. He grabbed Nataku's backpack, as he was about to walk away, "Sanzo's what? I'm listening."
"Not free information."
"Okay, okay… Damn, you're good… Tell me."
"You promise? Or I'm gonna kick your ass." Nataku raised an eyebrow.
"Whatever. Now, what's that valuable info you've got…?"
"Well…"
~ To be continued…
A/N: well… sorry again, gonna have to cut it short… I'm getting tired, got to go… ja ^-^ Next chapter's on Homura-tachi.
