Hi again! Again. So, Uma didn't come yet. But she does in this one! I promise!! So… I don't own Saiyuki, but if I did I'd probably only want Goku. OkAy! Here I go! LOL Meemsy.

Rio was awoken the next morning by alotta lotta yelling.

"YOU TOLD THEM WHAT?!"

"Just that you and tiny--"

"YOU TOLD THEM WE WERE MARRIED!?"

"No, that you were dating. There's a difference, mmmmonkey boy."

"DON'T CALL ME THAT!"

Rio groaned and stuffed her head into her pillow, almost smothering herself. What time was it? She got up, took a deep breath of air from not having any, and walked out the door.

The tiny innkeeper walked down the stairs with scraggly hair. She dragged herself to the kitchen, only to find out where the noise had been coming from. Goku was trying to strangle Gojyo. She looked at Rose, who pointed to an extremely large plate of meat buns. Rio squealed and grabbed on of the meat buns, almost tripping over Goku and Gojyo's little fight. Sanzo began to get his normal vein-in-the-temple.

"Have the two of you ever heard of PDA?"

Gojyo blinked. "Yeah. Public Display of Affection. Your not supposed to do that."

"Well, why are you?"

Hakkai chuckled. "Maybe they just love each other so much."

Gojyo and Goku glared at them. "Shut up, Hakkai. Sanzo. You started that."

Sanzo shrugged and went back to his paper. Rose cleared her throat.

"Sorry to interrupt your, love affair was it?" Hakkai smiled and shook his head. "Right. Well, there's some--" She went to go point at the plate of meat buns and stopped. "Where did they go?"

A woman with glasses and reddish-orange hair pointed at the table. Rio sat under the table with an almost empty plate of meat buns. She glared at the new woman.

"Curse you, Uma." She said grumpily and shoved the plate away. Goku dived for the plate.

"MINE!!"

Rio came out from under the table and brushed herself off. Uma wrapped one arm around Rio's neck, putting her in a head lock.

"Your dog chased me again."

"So what the hell should I do about it? I can't watch him twenty-four seven!"

"Right. Anyway, what happened to all the other visitors? Why are these four the only ones here."

Ritsuko sighed. "Well, um… they heard about some demons." ^^;;

Sanzo looked up. "You?"

"How'd you guess?"

"You've ALL got fangs. Except Rose. She's doing a good job of hiding them."

Rose smiled and nodded politely. "I'm not really sure what to say to that."

Ritsuko shot her hand out. "Yeah, anyway, I was talking."

^^"Gomen nasai--"

"Shut up. Let me speak my words of wisdom. Anyway, I'm not a demon."

Goku looked at her with a meat bun in his mouth. "mm mfm mm fm?"

"What?"

Hakkai smiled. "He said, 'Then what are you?'" Goku shook his head, then looked at Gojyo and almost lost his meat bun…

Ritsuko smiled brightly. "I'm a vampire."

The whole ikkou seemed to be disturbed by this. Sanzo dropped his newspaper on the floor, Goku swallowed his meat bun…almost whole, Hakkai spit his sake back into his cup, and Gojyo looked over…but then went back to hitting on Uma.

"So, how's about you and me?"
"How's about you get some brains…or a ticktack! Your breath stinks!"

Goku laughed at that comment. But, Gojyo seemed a little angry.

"You--fine! We're staying until you like me."

"Fine. Stay forever." Uma smirked and ducked under arm.

Rio eyes bulged. O.O "What? Here?! Why?! Don't you have a--a--thing?!"

Gojyo raised an eyebrow. "Yeah. I use it a lot. Hey, you girls wanna try?"

Rio grabbed the meat bun tray and hit Gojyo upside the head leaving a dent in her 'precious' tray; Ritsuko threw Hakkai's sake cup, causing Hakkai to have a mini nervous break down; Uma threw a fork at him; and Rose (being as nice as possible to the perverted kappa) threw a wet towel at his face.

So, it was kinda stupid… but yeah. Now you know. I couldn't think of another title so… GOMEN NASAI! Umm… NEXT CHAPTER: Rio's parents…it starts to get a little dramatic.
