Chapter four.

The Truth.

*flash*

-Gojyo's place-

Someone knocked Gojyo's door.

"Yeah. I'm coming." Gojyo opened his door and amazed when he recognized that his visitor was the woman on the corner of tavern. "You again."

"Did you remember me?" Something was lit up in her bright blue eyes, like a bit happiness… or hope.

"How could I forget the pretty girl like you?" He smiled, like every time he saw a woman, and added. "You were in the tavern last night, I could remember that." And I could 'feel' the other thing. I felt familiar with this girl, like I'm not just know her last night, like I knew her from… another place, another time… far away from here. Hey, what's happen on my last year? He thought. But he didn't say or even show anything on his face.

The light in her eyes was gone but the smile was still on her face, then she said. "You're right. I'm Sara, Ken… Gojyo-san." She introduced herself. "I have something to ask you. Would you help me?"

"Sure. Your wish is my command." He grinned and winked at Sara.

"I'm appreciate to know that." She smiled with a hidden motive. "I want you to kill someone for me."

Gojyo stunned for a minute and said. "Would you make a pardon, please?"

"I said I want you to kill someone for me." Sara said like it's a common thing in the world. "You already know them. They are Cho Hakkai and Son Goku."

"What the hell is it?" He yelled and began to piss off. "Why did I have to do that?"

She smiled coldly and reached her hand to Gojyo's face. "It's because I said and you cannot refuse it."

"Wha…" He couldn't finish his word when he was accidentally stared at her eyes. He felt like he fallen into a deep blue lake. He was hypnotized.

*flashback*

**********

"Goku! Step back!" Hakkai shouted and pulled Goku back before Gojyo could hurt Goku with his Shaku jou.

"WHAT?" Goku confused. "It's dangerous, ero-kappa!"

What's happen to him? Hakkai wondered. He's looked different from the last time.

"If you want to fight, NYOIBOU." Goku was a bit piss and called his weapon that meant to attack Gojyo.

"Goku! Get outside!" Hakkai shouted and blew his ki to Gojyo. Goku and Hakkai went to a footpath in front of the inn through the window, while Gojyo defended himself from ki.

"You can't run forever!" Gojyo yelled.

"What the hell is it?" Goku murmured and defended himself from Shaku jou. "Take this!" He tried to hit Gojyo on the head. Gojyo could defend himself but flew for many feet. After he could get up, his headband was gone and shown the sign underneath it.

Goku started to fight again when Hakkai yelled at him. "Goku. Wait! Gojyo was hypnotized!"

"What!?" Goku stunned that was due to the wound on his back. "Shit!"

"GOKU!!!"

"I'm alright! Hakkai!" Goku said and was frightened when Gojyo changed his target. "Watch out!!!"

Hakkai was attacked and flew for a several feet that made Gojyo got ready to kill Hakkai. Before anything would happen, Gojyo stopped suddenly, there's some conscious in his eyes. "Hakkai?"

Goku didn't wait for another chance. He attacked Gojyo and sent onto the garbage.

They hadn't wait so long. Gojyo jumped up. "What did you think you do, bakasaru!?" He was seemed really pissed off.

"You're back?" Goku asked with uncertain voice.

"Wha…" Then Gojyo realized he was himself again.

"His sign was gone." Goku said happily with Hakkai.

Before Hakkai could mention something, giggle voice was up. "It's too soon to be happy."

Hakkai, Goku and Gojyo turned quickly to the source of voice. The source was a woman, she's a beautiful woman with long silver hair and bright blue eyes.

"What did you have done to me?" Gojyo asked angrily.

She smiled. "You don't have to be so furious."

"Who are you?" Gojyo inquired.

"I'm Sara. I told you once. Don't you remember?"

"I MEAN WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?" Gojyo really pissed.

Sara giggled. "Don't you know?"

Before Gojyo could say something, Hakkai interrupted with his remark. "Wait Gojyo. Her sign on her forehead is the same as yours when you were hypnotized."

"Absolutely yes." Gojyo mocked. "I was the one who was hypnotized. How could I not realize that?"

"I mean I knew it." Hakkai replied. "She's Kami." How could I know?

"WHAT?" Goku and Gojyo yelled at the same time.

Sara smiled satisfyingly. "You were right, Tenpou Gensui." She pretended to sorry. "Oh, sumimasen. I have to call you Cho Hakkai, right?"

"URUSAI!" Gojyo raided with his Shaku jou but he found only the emptiness.

"You're slower, Kenren Taishou." She whispered from behind and gave him a kick that send him for a several feet.

"Gojyo!" Goku shouted and moved to attack Sara that already generated her sword. Its length was about three feet and shone like moonlight.

It's shine. Goku thought and before he could do something, she disappeared.

"You should cure your wound first." She told him from behind. "Unless you want to widen the edge of the wound with my moonlight sword."

"Ahk!!" Sara made his wound deeper and wider, and sent him to another side of the footpath.

"GOKU!!!"

"I will taking care of him, Gojyo." Hakkai generated a small yellow ball on Goku's back.

"Okay!" Gojyo turned to Sara but it was too late. Her punch knocked him down. Before she beaten him with her sword, she was looking through his eyes and had to hold her hand back.

What the hell is it? Gojyo doubted.

Her bright blue eyes were seem confused and became a clear blue lake in a next minute. "I will leave you today." She said. "But if you're still in my way next time, don't say I didn't give you a caution." *disappear*

**********

-Inn-

"Dammit!" Gojyo cursed. "What the hell is it?"

"I know you get mad because we absolutely lost by that woman." Hakkai said. "But she's Kami, we have to accept it."

"I know, I know." Gojyo rolled his eyes. "But we, 3 guys… er 2 guys and a saru, lost by one girl. That's a shit."

"Hey, I'm not a saru, kappa." Goku argued. "And even that girl was so fast, she's still slower than Nakuma. I was absolutely not see him." He turned his face to Hakkai. "Do you think he's Kami?"

"I don't know, but it's possible." Hakkai replied. "However if it's true, why did Kami attack us?" Then he asked Gojyo. "Would you like to tell us what's happen after you got out the restaurant?"

Gojyo stared at Hakkai for a while before began to tell them. He told everything. Since he first met Sara at tavern until he was hypnotized, including the way he felt familiar with Sara.

"Goku. Did you sure that you never met Sara?"

"Yes. You may know her when you're with Hakkai." Goku answered. "But it's not when you stayed with Sanzo and me."

"Where did you know her?" Hakkai questioned.

Gojyo shook his head. "I have no idea. I couldn't forget a girl like that, but I just don't know where I met her."

"So we got another puzzle." Hakkai concluded. "And the next one is what did she mean when she called me 'Tenpou Gensui'."

"About that puzzle, she called me 'Kenren Taishou', too." Gojyo added. "What's matter, saru?" He asked when he found the boy shocked for what Hakkai and he just said.

"er… Nothing." Goku replied and avoided for eye contact. That dream. He thought. It had something about 'Tenpou' and 'Kenren'. Is they…

"… ku… GOKU!" Gojyo shouted at his ear that caused he startle.

"What's up?" Goku was still confusing that was due to Gojyo had to roll his eyes.

"I said I'll go now."

"Go? Where?" *panic*

Goku's action made Gojyo a wide smile and reached his hand to shake the boy's head. "I just want to go home and take some rest. I'll be back here tomorrow then we will talk about the other things. Is it okay, saru?"

"Oh, yeah." Goku was relieved and gave Gojyo a grin that caused two guys smiled at each other.

"See you tomorrow. Kid. Hakkai." Gojyo said and left the room.

After Gojyo went out the room, Hakkai moved his attention to the boy. "And you have to take a rest, too. Goku." He told the boy. "Let's take a bath and don't forget to brush your teeth before you sleep."

"Alright." Goku accepted and completely forgot what he thought about the dream.

**********

-Morning-

"WAKE UP! SARU!" After Gojyo failed to wake Goku with normal method, he decided his mind to be violence by using wrestling technique.

"ITAI!!" Goku woke up with a start. When he saw the man who awakened him, he yelled. "What did you think you doing, ero-kappa?"

Gojyo smirked. "Woke you up, bakasaru."

Before they could make up a little war, Hakkai interrupted the brawl. "Breakfast is ready. Do you want to have it now?"

"Yes!!!" Goku definitely forgot what he argued with Gojyo. However it's seemed Gojyo's not ready for that change.

"Do you have a stomach instead of your brain?"

But Goku couldn't hear it, he changed his cloth and already in downstairs.

"Will we follow him?" Hakkai asked with a small laugh. It caused Gojyo rolled his eyes.

"Do you have the other way?" Gojyo mocked and followed Goku. At the upstairs, Hakkai could hear an argument about owner of food that made him shaken his head and smiled.

"Let's we go downstairs, Hakuryu." He told the white dragon.

"Kyu!"

**********

After they finished their breakfast, they're back to discuss.

"What will you do, Gojyo?" Hakkai asked. "Goku and me decided to complete this journey. But as that woman said, you'll be in dangerous if you join us."

"And Nakuma was stronger than her. We're in a big trouble now." Goku added.

"Ch'. Do you think I'm a coward?" Gojyo said angrily. "I will go with you." And he added when he saw Goku's eyes were brightened up. "Even I have to stand with a stupid monkey."

"Don't called me monkey! Ero-kappa!"

Goku's emotion made Gojyo was more provoking. "What if I call you? Monkey, monkey, monkey!!!"

Among the brawl, Hakkai smiled and talked to Hakuryu. "It's seem we will live with this noisemaker everyday."

"Kyu!" Hakuryu absolutely agreed.
