Chapter Three-Mysterious Box

~~~~~~~~~~~

*start*

--Hell--

A different siren rang loudly across the halls of the vast castle; finally the most awaited time of Shien has come to be. The Prince of Heaven has been found in the outskirts of southeast China. [A/N: Its already near cause they did found angels, angels that were the foster parents of Hakkai…ne?]

"Kuso, how the hell did he ever escape my tight grudge," Shien said impatiently.

"Shien-sama…," a youkai servant suddenly interrupted.

"Nan desu ka?"

"The angels were immediately slaughtered since they won't give information about the whereabouts of the Prince they hid from us since he was a child."

"That would do enough," Shien said.

"Continue to search for the Prince and exterminate anyone who blocks the way, bring the Prince to me…alive!"

"H-hai Shien-sama," the youkai servant replied.

"And before you leave recruit more young, strong youkai/s for the alliance."

"Alliance, sir?" The youkai servant asked confused.

"Homura has decided to help me find the Prince, his soldiers together with mine will make a strong defense alliance."

[A/N: During that time when Shien was first accepted in Hell as a high-ranking official, he met many others including Homura but Homura and Shien's vicious attitude led them to help each other and now they are close as ever in destroying Heaven…^___^;;]

The servant bowed and disappeared following his master's orders.

"Everything you love and care about will die Prince Cho Hakkai unless you will sacrifice you life in saving them," Shien said to himself, smiling maliciously to what will happen to the mortals who gets in his way.

--Earth--

Gojyo and Goku soon arrived at Hakkai's house and found his parents dead like all the others but not so mysterious such as this.

After explaining the said letter, all four approached the mysterious box. As always, Goku as excited as ever tried to open the box but to no avail. Sanzo and Gojyo did the same, trying more force but still nothing happened. And finally Hakkai tried his luck and with great ease the mysterious box was opened immediately, unveiling a huge amount of blinding light.

Then Hakkai saw everything from the very start of his birth and finally his real identity unfolds. Yet one thing was not included there, his fate here on earth, the same fate of Tenpou Gensui was left unsaid.

"Hakkai?" Sanzo said, realizing that the boy seemed to be in a trance.

Tears fell from Hakkai's eyes; the three seemed quite at shocked. Hakkai saw something that they didn't see after that blinding light. He soon fell to his knees after the flashbacks.

"How could this be…?" Hakkai mumbled to himself.

Sanzo kneeled in front of him and to everyone's great surprise, Hakkai again cried on Sanzo shoulder. The pain of seeing your past and never meeting you real parents.

After minutes long, they both stood up, as he handed their weapons respectively without knowing much about them.

As soon as they touched their weapons, the undeniable truth unfolds. Like Hakkai they saw the pain he undergo and how he needs protection badly. They were given knowledge of their respective weapons and promised to each of themselves to guard Hakkai 'til his safety is assured from the hands of the former angel.

Their journey then started, an adventure to save from harm and escape whatever destiny awaits them. Maybe, just maybe the past won't repeat itself…whatever Tenpou Gensui committed before may not nor never happen. Cho Hakkai was different from Tenpou Gensui. He won't die the same tragic romance death…

"Arigato, minna," Hakkai said, sincerely thankful his friends did not abandon him when he was facing a major crisis.

"They murdered and destroyed our village, our once pure and peaceful village stained with blood. I want to know why they are desperately searching for you," Gojyo replied.

True, they were able to see Hakkai's past, present and maybe even his future but they didn't understand the real purpose of the Prince of Heaven unless they were the Prince or an angel.

"The Prince of Heaven secure the stability of the whole kingdom, a Prince is only born two thousand years after the King's loyalty is proven however in Hakkai together with another Prince [Tenpou Gensui] case they have escaped Heaven in order to maintain peace in the two worlds [Earth and Heaven]. And since that time the said event would be repeated 'til the mistake is fixed," Sanzo replied.

"Wait, how can you understand such things? Angels are the only authorize beings that could understand the security of its own kingdom," Hakkai interrupted, having new knowledge, he could not understand why Genjou Sanzo could answer Gojyo's question.

Thinking hard, something came to his mind. It seems quite impossible and forbidden but since that time it might be possible that the Prince of Heaven fell in love with a mortal of his own gender and transferred little knowledge of great use.

Masaka…

--Heaven--

"My Lord, the Prince has opened the box."

"He did open it yet we can never interfere the young man's journey in search for peace and solitude," the King replied.

"My Lord, can I ask something?"

"You already asked dear boy but do continue," the Queen interrupted.

"Is it true that Prince Tenpou transferred little knowledge to Konzen?"

"My child has great brains, he has revealed another part of the past," the King exclaimed.

"True, that was quite possible during that times long before," the Queen added.

"Little by little our son will learn of the past, somehow despite what destiny awaits him, it is also up to him to decide and I have accepted the mere fact of it all," the King said.

"We are angels and in this new era, may it be the past, present or future, we can never stop destiny. We can just watch, wait and hope," the Queen said.

Prince Tenpou Gensui, a very happy, intelligent and pure angel who fell in love with an ordinary mortal, a monk, Konzen Douji despite the restriction of such emotions to mere mortals nothing was changed 'til death claimed them.
