Sorry for not updating for so long. I'm working on several other things, and I have finals next week, so I'm kind of busy. Well, here's the next chapter. Sorry for the last two, I didn't give any scene for the real Saiyuki characters, but I kind of got wrapped up in Yohina and Kyle's romance, which is an important part of this story, but don't worry, they got my full attention for this chapter.
Enjoy!
I'll Try to update again as soon as possible!
Chapter Fifteen—India
The scream of the demons rang in the canyon over and over again long after the last demon was killed. Yohina watched in satisfaction at the ashes beside her. Her friends gaped at her as if she was some weird creature.
"Wow! You've been pretty worked up lately. What's so upsetting?" Hakkai asked, trying not to look too amused.
"Oh, she's not upset. She's just can't wait to finish this job so she could go back to Kyle. They've been getting along pretty well." Machi teased.
"What are you talking about? I want to move on and not spending another night in this canyon. It's getting on my nerves." Yohina was not a good liar.
"Oh, right. What about the time when you told me that Kyle invited you to his prom? You even went to New England with him to see some colleges. We had to cover for you. Then, if he didn't call everyday, you'd get all mad. After his call, you'd call one of us, telling us 'Kyle this, Kyle that.' Always, you end in the same sentence, 'Isn't he great?' And now you tell us that it's not about him when your face is all red? Are you sure we're going to believe that?" Vessica complained with her arms crossed.
"Oh, really? I really want to meet this Kyle guy now." Gojyo muttered.
All the girls' faces showed disgust. "You get away from my boyfriend. He is not gay!" Yohina screamed.
"Who'd heck are you calling gay?" Gojyo exploded.
"You! Red haired snake!"
Gojyo started chasing Yohina. The others just sighed in embarrassment even though there was no one around to see them. "Quit fighting!" Sanzo hit the both of them with his paper fan. Even as they stopped, they continued to whine.
"Just shut up! If I'm right, we'll be in India once we get out of this place." Hakkai got back to business.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Yohina exclaimed and ran off.
"Wait! That's a cliff!" Sakura shouted, but Yohina already fell.
Seconds later, Yohina flew back up angrily. "You moron, what's the use of premonitions if you tell me after it's already happened!" She snapped.
"Maybe it's because you act without thinking." Sakura snapped back.
"Oh, you want to start something?" Yohina shouted with her fists clenched.
"Bring it on!" Sakura seemed to change in the past few days. She got so aggressive, especially toward Yohina.
The others had to hold the two of them back from killing each other. Gojyo and Hakkai held Yohina back and almost got burned to crisps while the Sakura and Vessica got drenched stopping Sakura.
"God, I wish I could kill the two of you!" Sanzo shouted while he stopped Yohina and Sakura with his paper fan again.
"Can't you be a little nicer? After all, we are ladies." Yohina said while rubbing her painful head. Two blows so soon weren't what she was wishing for.
"Ladies my ass. What else do you want me to do? Acting like an old woman?" Sanzo snorted. Then his voice and face changed. It looked funny, and when he spoke, his voice was squeaky like a woman. "Children, children, stop playing. It's time for dinner."
Everybody laughed, even Sanzo himself, even though it looked more like a smirk than a smile.
"That's a pretty deep drop. But this is the end of the road. How the heck are we suppose to get down?" Hakkai said as he studied the cliff that Yohina fell from.
"I'm hungry. Anybody got food?" Goku complained.
"Here. I have some buns left. You can have it." Yohina said without looking back at Goku and handed him the bag that had her lunch in there. Goku snatched it and ate without thinking. Yohina was looking into the far sky where there were dark clouds. She thought she saw a dark tower. "So that's the Hotu castle, huh? We're not far now. If I just destroy Gyumaoh, I can be with Kyle without worrying anymore." She thought sadly inside.
"I guess I have to use my powers if there is no way down." Vessica sighed. Everybody turned to look at her. None of them had seen her using her magical powers. Usually, she fought with her sword rather than magic.
Seconds later, everyone except for Yohina was floating off the ground. "Ahhh!" Sakura and Goku screamed at the same time. Vessica just smiled. "Don't worry. You won't fall. Since my power is the wind, I can let you guys float."
"Hey! Why don't I get the special treatment?" Yohina argued.
"You've got wings, Yo. I think that's special enough. Besides, I need a scout in those mists. I've never used this power before. If anything goes wrong and intercepts with my magic, some of us could die. I mean literally. I wouldn't be able to save that person." Vessica annoyed as if Yohina should know this.
"All right. I give up." Yohina said as her black wings came out of her back. Now that she's learned to use it, the wings just appear without tearing up her clothes anymore. It was really neat. She no longer felt pain from her powers, but was grateful for them.
Yohina dived into the mists first, followed by the others. Vessica was the last. She had to guard everybody's back. Even though there was really nothing to be afraid off, there was nothing wrong with the extra protection. At first, Vessica just held everybody in place and waited for Yohina to come back. 10 minutes later, she was back. She looked flushed. They could tell that she might be flying at her fastest speed for the past 10 minutes.
"There's nothing in the way, but the mists get thicker down in the middle. Don't get lost. It's hard to find anything. Let's go." She said and turned back again. This time, she flew slowly, giving Vessica enough time to move everybody.
The whole trip went smoothly. Yet, when they got down to the ground, they were greeted by at least 50 demons, but it was no problem. Everybody got into actions immediately. Yet, when Vessica tried to move, she fell. It was because she had used too much power. As for Yohina, the same thing happened to her. Flying took the most of her powers out of everything she could do. She hated it, but sometimes, it was inevitable. She knew that there was more power inside of her, in the crystal that Tyler had put into her, but awakening those powers meant the end of her.
She watched helplessly as everybody else protected Vessica and herself. She suddenly hated herself. She knew that she shouldn't hate herself, but all of the sudden, she did. She hated herself for not having more powers.
"Yohina, watch out behind you." Goku shouted as he turned around to face her.
The demon's face was almost next to her. Its hand was raised and was coming down at her throat. Those sharp claws could pierce right through her veins. Right at the instant, her body froze. She suddenly felt fear again. It had seemed forever since she felt fear, but she was afraid. She didn't want to die. She had so many things to do in her life. She wanted to be with Kyle and not die because she had overused her powers without thinking.
Yet, before the hand came down, Gojyo grabbed the demon's arm and flung it aside. Goku killed it with his staff. "You OK, twerp? For a moment there you were chickened out, weren't you?" Gojyo winked at her.
"Who are you saying 'chickened out?' Are you stupid?" Yohina wanted to scream back at him, but couldn't, because he was right.
Then, she watched the fight with a new light and realized how important teamwork was. No one, not Sanzo, Goku, Gojyo, Hakkai, Sakura, Machi, or Nuriko tried to take all the demons on by him or herself. They all knew the limit of their powers. Rather, they helped each other to accomplish the common goal. She had been too selfish and worked all by herself ever since she found her confidence and forgot about everyone else.
She looked at Vessica, who was lying beside her, resting even during this kind of time. She trusted the others to protect her. Yohina didn't. That was why she felt so restless all the time. "We're a team. I should trust them." Yohina thought as the fight concluded. Yet, she fell asleep all the same.
That night, they arrived beside Hotu Castle. Everybody had a good rest in the afternoon. Except for the complaints from Goku, everybody else was ready to get into Hotu Castle and finish what they've come to do.
"Let's split in three groups. It'll be faster this way to find Gyumaoh and whoever is behind this. Yohina, Gojyo, Vessica, you three go in from the back. Hakkai, Nuriko, Machi, you guys get in from here. Sakura and Goku, the two of you come with me. We'll go in from the other side. No matter what happens, we'll meet back here in two hours. Got that? We're just exploring today. Don't get too worked up. We'll get back in tomorrow at noon." Sanzo ordered.
"Can we go now?" Goku whined. He couldn't wait to get it over with. He was too hungry to care about anything important.
"Two hours. Now get your lazy ass out of here."
"You're gonna get it for that." Yohina shouted as Vessica, Gojyo, and her disappeared.
"Stupid. She had to alert our enemies." Sanzo thought as he ran with his group toward the other entrance.
Yohina, Gojyo, and Vessica soon got to the back. There were few guards. It seemed that whoever was behind this didn't think anyone would dare to break entry. While Yohina and Vessica were both thinking about how to get in the place, Gojyo wondered why did he have to be stuck with two girls?
"This should be easy. Let's get to the second floor." Yohina said as her wings appeared. Vessica floated as a swirl of wind surrounded her.
"Hey, what about me?" Gojyo cried, not loudly, but enough for the girls to hear.
"Geez, it's not like we're going to abandon you." Yohina said and dragged him up by the collar and the three of them landed on the second floor through an open window seconds later.
"Which way should we go?" Vessica asked as she looked right and left.
"You guys go left and I go to the right. How's that?" Gojyo suggested, ready to get away from the girls.
"No. We're sticking together on this one." Yohina said as she started walking to the right. Something told her that she would find something over there. It was a familiar feeling within these walls, as if she had been here before.
They came upon the first door about five minutes later. They looked at each other, knowing what were on the others' minds. Gojyo nodded and they walked toward the door. When Gojyo was about to open it, Yohina stopped him. She put her hand on the handle and opened it as slowly as she could without making the door creak.
Yet, as soon as the door was fully opened, something like whips came out and grabbed the three of them and pulled them into the room. The door then slammed closed as if nothing had happened. "Shit!" All three of them thought at the same time.
"OK. How the heck are we going to get in?" Machi said after examining the first floor near their entrance. There was no window. They can't get in without making noises. She made that point to Hakkai and Nuriko.
"Then we'll just have to break in. It'll provide an opportunity for the others if we get all the attention." Nuriko answered without thinking. Machi turned to Hakkai for his opinion.
"Not a bad idea, but we should consider how to escape if we make an entrance. Sanzo did say not to make a scene today."
"But it's the only way in. We can't pass through the wall."
"Nuriko, you can make the wall into ice right? Then I can melt them with my powers. Even if someone does see it, we can run before we get discovered."
"Great idea!" Nuriko said and got to work immediately. One minute later, the clay bricks were a wall of ice. Hakkai stepped up and changed his power to fire. He can't do that very often, but if he concentrates, he could do it for a few minutes without wearing himself out too much. Fire and Water were the only ones he could do since they were easy to form.
After five minutes, there was a door for them. The same question faced them. Left or right? With a flip of a coin, which was Machi's favorite trick, they chose left.
Fifteen minutes later, they were back at where they started.
"What the hell? This is gotta be a trick! We didn't even see stairs to the second floor." Nuriko and Machi said at the same time.
"It is. I say an illusion trick. Looks like they know we're here." Hakkai spoke softly. Then, they heard footsteps coming toward them. Almost immediately, they hid behind a wall.
Yet, as the figure came closer, Hakkai thought he recognized the person. When he could completely see who it was, he gasped, so did Machi and Nuriko. They both turned to look at him. At the same time, the three of them muttered the same word, "Kanan."
Sanzo, Goku, and Sakura got in without trouble. Since Goku could stretch his staff at will, they got on the fourth floor almost immediately. "This place is creepy. Doesn't anyone live here?" Sakura whined as they looked around carefully.
"I'm sure somebody lives here." Sanzo muttered with sarcasm as footsteps approached them. They looked for a hiding place, but there was none. Without any other choices, they started to run as quietly as possible away from the footstep. When they finally saw a door, they got in and hid.
The footsteps became louder as seconds passed. They looked out the window on the door and saw that it was Kougaiji with Yaone. They seemed to be in a hurry, or they would've noticed them already.
"Should we follow them?" Goku asked quietly as they got out of the room after Kougaiji and Yaone disappeared.
"As long as you don't get us in trouble." Sanzo snorted. Goku didn't seem to mind and walked forward, suddenly becoming the leader.
They went the way where Kougaiji and Yaone had gone and ended up in a big high ceiling room. The room was only lit by two candles, so the lights were pretty dim. Yet, even with those lights, they could see a female demon's stone statue. She was hanged on the wall by magical scrolls and seals.
"Wow, she's beautiful." Sakura exclaimed.
"She's Kougaiji's mother. She was sealed with Gyumaoh 500 years ago. I guess whoever is trying to revive Gyumaoh left her like this." Sanzo explained.
"That's right. She is the reason I'm fighting you guys." Kougaiji's voice reached them from behind. The room was suddenly lit up magically.
They whirled around to see Kougaiji, Dokugakugi, Yaone, and several other vicious looking demons standing in front of the door. "Hand over the scroll, monk. Don't make this any harder."
"Oh, that's right. I almost forgot. You are only helping that Koushu woman because she promised to free your mother if you do, but Gyumaoh belongs to her." Sakura suddenly remembered. She had been going along with the story so well that she almost forgot everything she already knew.
"Yes, that's right. Now, either hand over that scroll or that purple haired girl."
"Why should we? We are here to stop you. If you want a fight, we'll give it to you." Goku said mysteriously.
"All right. You're asking for it. Let's do this the hard way." Kougaiji grinned. Then, along with his subordinates, the fight started.
