My, this is the 14th chapter. Wow. Never thought it'd reach that far. So
without further adieu...
~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~
The doctor was confounded. Despite himself, he could do nothing but stare at the sight before him. He was now replaying all that he had seen since Goku woke up.
The doctor was confused The Almighty Priest Sanzo fell of the bed ( A/N: I think that shocked him the most. ) With no apparent reason, his patient said "I will" Three seconds later, the other duo that had left the night before suddenly slams into the room. The one with glasses and green shirt starts to fuss about him The other two start to mutter words to each other The doctor is still confused.
Replaying it over and over in his mind still hasn't made him feel any better. Seeing that doing that was bringing him nowhere, he tried to shake it off and headed towards his patient. The man in green moved aside to let him analyze his patient. He did the usual, checked his temperature, heartbeat, the norm. Nothing out of the ordinary showed up on the scale. Just a little fatigue was left. Nothing but a few days rest was in order. He told the other trio in the rooms that were looking at him expectantly. He saw relief cross their faces, before the red headed tall man began to pick a fight with his patient.
The doctor sighed to himself, he would never understand these weird travelers that dropped by just a day ago and made him more confused than he had ever been in his life. Right now he needed to break the verbal fight between the redhead and his patient and chase the rest out of the room.
~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~
Sanzo found himself being chased out of the room by the doctor proclaiming that his patient needed his rest. For once he wasn't complaining. The last thing he wanted now was to be left alone with Goku after all that had happened. Still, he was slightly irked as he heard Goku suddenly say, seemingly almost out of nowhere the word.
"Eventually..."
It was only after he turned around and looked at Goku and realized that word was directed at him then did he understand. Issues that had happened had not been fully resolved. They said Time Heals All Wounds, Sanzo hoped that theory applied for Goku.
Hakkai brought them to an inn where Sanzo had his first meal since he arrived in the town. He didn't have much appetite but Hakkai forced him to eat some food. Sanzo ate as he wondered how things would be between him and Goku now. Seems like the paper fan needed to be doing less work now. That was practically removing one of the only joys in his life right now.
Then again, there was always Gojyo.
~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~
It was three days later then did the doctor deemed Goku ready for traveling again. Sanzo didn't push the doctor with a time limit. He didn't want to push his luck. They were currently having a last meal before they set off journeying again. They ate it with the doctor in repayment for the help that he didn't know he gave.
The music the restaurant was playing overhead intertwined with the sound of Gojyo and Goku quarrelling again. Sanzo was silently watching them. Hakkai was silently watching Sanzo silently watching them. Hakkai knew it was only a matter of time before Sanzo would blow. Above all, the doctor was warily watching this whole situation.
He did it.
-WHACK-
This time there was only one cry of pain.
"Damn you, monk!" Gojyo said as he clutched his head.
They then finished their meal in relative silence.
Hakkai went out to start jeep and check supplies, Gojyo followed suit, Sanzo behind Gojyo, delayed by payment using the indispensable gold card. Goku strolled behind him, delayed by the doctors advice and such about how he should take care of himself, so on so forth. Goku almost rolled his eyes at some of the most common sense things that the doctor had taken to himself to remind Goku to do, but he refrained himself.
The doctor had gone off on his merry way as Goku crossed over the threshold of the restaurant with him. He found Sanzo standing stock still at the doorway.
"What?"
Goku quizzed as he looked around in case some demon was upon them.
"Listen..."
Goku listened.
"...when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me..."
The song dwindled away as it ended. It took awhile for Goku to look up at Sanzo again. Sanzo was gazing back at him. The silent message had been understood. They headed to the jeep together where Gojyo and Hakkai were already waiting for them.
They drove off towards the sun as the next song played in the restaurant...
"...READY STEADY CAN'T HOLD ME BACK
READY STEADY GIVE ME GOOD LUCK
READY STEADY NEVER LOOK BACK
LET'S GET STARTED READY STEADY GO..."
~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~
It's DONE! Ended! Yay! Sorry if the ending wasn't satisfactory for you. I suck at beginnings and ends. Hope to see all of ya'll again! Ja Ne~!
