Chapter 4
She woke up startled. There was a loud noise downstairs at the house, and it sounded like someone breaking something and a fight broke out again between the two adolescents.
"Waaaahhh! Haaakkaaaiii! Seeeee whaaat Goyjo had brought!" whined Goku loudly.
"What's that to you, baka saru?" demanded Goyjo angrily.
"That ug…not so pretty… little girl scared me," accused Goku in a loud voice. "If it wasn't the fact that you both red-headed appeared to me simultaneously, I wouldn't have freak out and drop the plates."
"Why, you moron!!" shouted Goyjo, followed by several crashes of things. It was clear that Goyjo disliked to be reminded of the colour of his hair.
Twack!, Twack! "Can't you two idiots SHUT UP!! I haven't had any quiet, resting moments since I arrived!!" thundered the almost familiar voice. Sanzo-Houshi Sama.
Hakkai's soothing voice came to aid. "Now guys, there's no need to get angry on such a beautiful day. Beautiful day to start camping, eh?" he asked cheerfully. Nobody answered. It was clear that the others had a bad start of the day. "Where's the little girl gone to?" asked Hakkai suddenly. Murmuring voices echoed around the house as Goyjo, Hakkai and reluctant Goku proceeded to find the child. They had to search quietly less they trigger Sanzo to be gun-happy.
Yaone groaned slightly as she got up from the place that she lied down. She noticed that the pillow and the blanket that was given to Hakkai before, was now with her. He must had woke up earlier and put it on her before going down to prepare.
Silently Yaone climbed down the pipe and entered her room. After taking with her toiletries and a new set of clothes, Yaone made her way to the bathroom. She slipped into the bathtub nakedly and started to lather her body with soap. The warm water, the sweet smell body soap was making her feeling relaxed that she could close her eyes and enjoy. She could mentally shut off the noise that the Sanzo-ikkous were making, the anxious voice of Goyjo calling someone to come out, the yelling of Sanzo, asking them to lower down the noise. Yes…she could enjoy the warm bath and should enjoy it for she would spend the next five days in the jungle.
At an instance, Yaone's purple-pinkish eyes opened wide. Someone,
human or youkai was in the bathroom with her. Although her supressed
youkai ability could not sniffed out that particular intruder, yet she
could clearly hear it's movement. Yaone felt apprehensive, sweeping
her eyes entirely around the bathroom. Suddenly the bathroom light
went off, causing the whole room to be dark. Yaone got scared.
Dark places made her feel vulnerable, and Yaone hated being left open for
attack. Dashing out of the bathroom where there was light seemed
to be a good option but she could not for she was naked and that there
were four men outside. Instead, she sunk deeper into the bathtub,
quietly groping around for her towel or cloth. Her fear for unannounced
attack came true when suddenly someone grabbed her breast from her back,
fondling it. She screamed loudly, jumping up from the bath tub, struggling
to break free from perverted attacker.
In the midst of finding the little girl in the living room, Hakkai suddenly heard a loud scream from upstair.. "Yaone!" shouted Hakkai as he realized who screamed. Goyjo and Goku quickly followed the green-eyed youkai as he sprinted towards the source of noise.
Her mind went panic and scared as she relieved her memories of the past. Somebody was behind her, grabbing her neck tightly. Although she could still breath, the intimate closeness and the strange breast contact had caused her to cringe uncomfortably. Images of Ni Jyenii smirking at her helplessness came to her mind. Dizziness started to set in. Get a grip of yourself, Yaone, she thought herself, desperately.
"Yaone! Yaone! What's happening inside?" shouted Hakkai worriedly, banging the door several times.
"Maybe we should break the door open?" proposed Goyjo.
"Hakkai! Please switch on the light!" cried Yaone horsely, willing herself to concentrate and not to faint. She must fight strong and overcome this situation. Somehow the person behind her was now not very heavy. With a slight maneuver, she twisted and turned and found that at the moment the light was switched on…she found a wet nine year old red-haired girl clinging on her. A taboo child, infused with human and youkai blood. She had a big, prominent scar on her forehead. The girl stared her back with her wide red eyes. "Momma," she whispered.

Author's Note: I feel bad that this fic doesn't get as much reviews
compared to "Fallen Angel" Please, read and review. I need
to know if there are anti or pro Hakkai/Yaone fans who really WANT YAONE
TO BE WITH HAKKAI FINALLY in this fic or not. Remember...as you continue
to read more chapters, I want you to tell me whether should Yaone
and Hakkai be together or not. Because Kana's presence is going
to be difficult to avoid.
As for the "Fallen Angel" fic...I think I would take a break for almost a year for my studies. It was never my intention to write "Fallen Angel" at this time (my final trial period). To make it up, I have posted "Delusion Moment" fic on my birthday. It's about Yaone and Hakkai on their supposed 'wedding night' (be warned it's has lime part inside). I'll also continue to post the chapters of "Unforgotten And Unforgiven Past Memory" in my own sweet time.
Nikki dear, I wish I could write Kou x Yaone pairing fics, but
I really can't. It's not that I don't like Kougaiji, it's just that
I felt Kougaiji wasn't treating Yaone as how a man would treat to a girlfriend.
I felt Kougaiji as a cold, unexpressioned man, who wouldn't give a damn
about Yaone's feelings, or even if he knew...he would keep a distance from
Yaone, because she's innocent and pure. I prefer Hakkai x Yaone pairing,
because Hakkai in the tv series openly care for Yaone (though we don't
know the real reason; could it be because he's a caring person (which is
not really true...we seen how merciless he deals with other enemies) or
could it be because he found Yaone interesting like Kana, or his own character?)
If I could have it my own way...Yaone would ran away from these two guys
(Hakkai & Kougaiji) and set her own harem of husbands.
