Random Scenes (That Simply Popped Into Our Heads and Didn't Fit Anywhere)

By: Imaginator & Yun Cyn

A/N: Yes, it's true. We have officially broken into the world of Saiyuki fanfiction. Hope you enjoy this first installment and we hope there will be more to come in the near future.

And that the Sanzo-ikkou don't kill us once they read this.

If this first story isn't satisfactory, please bear with us. Our humour will probably get better once we fall into the rhythm of Saiyuki humour.

Imaginator: Must you give such a boring author's note?

YunCyn: So sue me if I don't use flowy words!

Imaginator: (sing-song) No creativity, no creativity!

YunCyn: *twitch*

Imaginator: *snickers* Must have been stifled by a certain boy from school...ne, YunCyn? *grins evilly*

YunCyn: That's it! *whips out gun* SHI NE!

BLAM!

Imaginator: (dies)

YunCyn: ^_^ On with the story...

Ahem...please R/R! Arigato gozaimasu!

Disclaimer: What disclaimer? We DO own them!

Okay... we don't. Can't blame us for trying...

A Normal Night In Saiyuki

It was a moonlit night. The stars dotted the velvet night sky, and a thin streak of a shooting star flew across. The shadows of the forest trees hid the sleeping feathered birds, fast asleep in their nests, getting enough rest so that they had enough strength to fly the next day. The animals that called the forest home were quiet. The ones who walked during the day now slept silently. The night crawlers wandered and ambled about, searching for food and whatever was in their interest. An owl, with a pair of huge eyes, sat on a tree bough, eyes sharp and ready to spot his dinner.

A movement in the long grass immediately made the owl swivel his head in the direction where it came from. A mouse, unseen to normal eyes, but clear as crystal to the old owl, nibbled on a seed in the grass, thinking all was safe. The brown owl flapped his wings in readiness. The soft rustling they made didn't distract the mouse. The hunter then took off with speed to rival the wind. He sped steadily to his prey, his eyes never leaving focus. His talons were about to squeeze the life out of his quarry when…

He was nearly blasted to bits.

*SWOOOOOSH!* *BOOM!*

A shrill scream "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH…!" pierced the air, awakening several sleeping residents of the forest. And frightening most of them.

The flying green ki ball that had quickened a youkai's expiration date had nearly missed the poor owl. The wise looking bird, thought to be the symbol of wisdom, was thrown indignantly ten feet from the mouse and into the shrubs. Being a skittish fellow, the rodent had quickly scampered away, far from dangerous owls and flying youkais. An owlish squawk announced the owl's displeasure at being robbed of its dinner AND it's dignity. The night bird quickly regained balance and took off flying into the night air, figuring that it was much more safer to try and find dinner somewhere else.

Perhaps on the moon.

Clueless to what he'd done to one of the birds of the forest, Hakkai sent another ki ball flying into yet another youkai while Gojyo swung his blade, slicing a youkai into half. Sanzo stood at another point, shooting some other demons with his gun. He looked cranky. But what else was new? Son Goku, was busy trying out his new technique: whack and stab.

*WHACK!* A youkai saw stars. For at least a few seconds before the Nyoibou plunged right through him, killing the youkai instantly.

"Sanzo!! Can we eat after this?!" *WHACK!* (dazed look on youkai) *stab* (scream) *WHACK!* *stab* (scream)

*BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!* "Bakasaru! Can you stop thinking about food for at least one more minute?!"

*Slice* *swing* *slice* "Ne, Hakkai! What happened to the one that tried to kill you in your sleep?!"

*SWISH!* Youkai's terrified, wide-eyed expression. *BOOM!* Youkai scream. "Um…dead?" *Gathers energy into ball* *releases ki ball* BOOM! *Another youkai's last scream*

"Of course. How-" *Slice!* *swing* "Stupid of me!"

BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! "It comes naturally to you." BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!

Gojyo glared at Sanzo as the crescent blade sliced through another youkai. "Corrupted, droopy eyed monk!!"

Somehow, Sanzo was more preoccupied with shooting youkai than whacking Gojyo on the head. He'd do it later.

*WHACK!* *Stab* *WHACK!* *Stab* "Harahetta…!"

*SWIIISH!* *BOOM!* "Well, looks like you can eat now, Goku."

The Sanzo-ikkou stared at the scene around them. The ground was littered with bodies and ashes. The night was silent once more. They'd defeated another horde of youkai. Again.

Hakkai sighed in slight relief. It'd been a little tiring trying to be witty in their bantering while defeating enemies intent on destroying them and eating Sanzo. Gojyo made the shakujou disappear and grinned. "Yeah. Not that it's gonna do the saru any good. His stomach must be made of rubber."

Goku scowled. "I do NOT have a rubber stomach!!"

Gojyo snickered. "No? Then where does all the food go? Filling up the empty space in your skull? No wonder you can't think of anything else but food."

"ERO KAPPA! You trying to pick a fight?!"

"So what if I am, bakasaru?!"

"Grrrr!! If I weren't so hungry, I'd whack you with the Nyoibou right now!"

"Hah!? That twig won't hurt me."

"You wanna try, you perverted water monster!?"

"Bring it on, you dumbass ape!"

Hakkai didn't even bother trying to stop them. He knew they never listened anyway. Hakkai glanced at Sanzo. The monk's hands were twitching alarmingly.

3…2…

::WHACK! WHACK!::

1.

Silence with the exception of Gojyo and Goku groaning in pain and indignity followed. Hakkai smiled and suggested they find an inn to spend the night in and to get some midnight snacks. Sanzo replaced the harisen and said if the kappa and the bakasaru made one more sound, the jeep would have two less people to carry around. He began to walk to said jeep.

Goku made the unfortunate decision to go and clarify just which pair Hakuryu was not going to carry if they made one more sound. Gojyo and Hakkai who were a few feet behind them saw the silhouette of a harisen make contact with a saru's head. A resounding "THWACK!" and "ITAI!" accompanied it as well. Hakkai chuckled and shook his head. Gojyo took out a cigarette and started smoking as they walked.

Another night in the life of Sanzo, Hakkai, Gojyo and Goku.

The End.
