Hey, didn't know I'd even get one review. I thought it sucked, but that's just me. I know the part was so short but it's just the prolog and not an actual chapter.

Falondyess- Thanks. Thought you'd like it! My mind was going on overload with ideas for Saiyuki after reading the first manga. I couldn't stop reading it!!! I read it like three times so far. It's so cool!! Already planning on buying the anime series!!

C.T.- Wow. Thanks. I know it was a bit short but I promise that I'll make the chapters much longer. Though it may take me some time to write them seeing as how I'm doing it in school during study hall hours or during a very boring class. But I definitely will take your suggestion for a title into consideration.

Devil-Angel- Hey, thanks. I'll be updating regularly. I usually wait till I have at least three reviews before putting up a new chapter. It's kinda slowed down some of my stories but oh well.

Thank you all for reviewing. Keep sending me suggestions for a new title. I hope to try and keep the characters as close to their personalities as I possibly can (Though I'm not very good at it sometimes). Anyway, here's chapter one.

Chapter 1

The sun was bright and beautiful, not a cloud in the sky nor any harsh winds from the cold mountains behind the small town. Everything seemed perfect as it usually did, well....almost. Most everyone paused in their daily work to stop and stare at the four men riding in the iron vehicle. None had ever seen anything like it come into the seemingly peaceful town.

Gojyo sat back looking around as Hakkai continued to drive down the dirt roads. They were mostly used to people stopping and staring, but they really didn't care much. Mostly they just ignored the stares and continued on with their business.

"Well, here it is. The Culture Inn as it's called," Hakkai said as they stopped in front of a large in. It was quite big and looked a little old fashioned. It looked more of an old Japanese styled inn with screen paper doors and bamboo floors.

"Hope they have good food here. I'm starving," Goku said as he jumped out of the jeep.

Hakkai chuckled as he got out as well: "Always thinking of food, Goku."

"Let's just get inside and get some rooms," Sanzo said. He was getting pretty annoyed having to stay in a jeep for days on end with the four youkai. Hakkai wasn't very bad to deal with, but Gojyo and Goku were a completely different story. The entire time they would bicker, fight, and complain. It gave him a major headache everyday. It was nice to finally have some rest for once.

They all headed inside but left Hakuryu in the jeep transformation. It would've been too suspicious if they had gone into town with the jeep and then have it suddenly disappear. The inside was about as nice as the outside looked. Not a crack in the floors and it looked as if it had just been cleaned. Low tables sat here and there with cushions and pillows scattered around them. More sliding doors lead to what seemed a kitchen and other lounging rooms. Goku could already smell the food coming from the kitchen. Everything seemed as though it was in the right place.

"I don't know about you guys, but this place seems just a bit too perfect," Gojyo said as he looked around the place.

"I don't care so long as I can get some sleep," Sanzo replied.

Hakkai was about to reply when a man of heavy stature walked in. He wore old-fashioned Japanese styled clothing usually worn for males. His hair was short and nearly balding. He had a huge grin on his face, but his eyes showed that of something different,

"Welcome, friends, to the Old Culture Inn, the finest inn in this town. Are you looked for a place to stay for the night?"

"Yes, we are. We would like-"

"Four singles bed rooms," Sanzo replied as he cut Hakkai off. Knowing Hakkai, he would've gotten two bed rooms, and there was no way in hell Sanzo was about to stay the night in a room with Gojyo or Goku, and putting them together in the same room would be suicide.

"Ah, very well then. Come, I'll have someone take you to your rooms. Hitachi!" the man called.

One set of sliding doors opening, showing a girl bowing down in the old fashioned way. The hair that was not put up spilled down onto the floor around her hands and was sunshine blond. She wore a Japanese styled kimono that had a high collar. It was a dark purple color with speaks of silver laced into it.

"Ah, there you are. Take these young men down to their rooms. They want one-bed rooms. Make sure they're close together, not like you did the last time. Understood?" the man said.

The woman gently sat up and nodded. Sanzo frowned at the woman. She looked about the age of 21 and there didn't seem to be a flaw with her, except one. Her eyes were the darkest of gray, but they held no life. There was no usual spark within the eyes as there usually was in normal eyes. It was like looking into the eyes of a dead person.

The woman slowly stood and walked over to them in her old wooden shoes. She slowly bowed to them before turning and walking down a hall that was located off to the side. She never said a word as she led them outside towards a few long buildings surrounded by gardens and fountains. She stopped next to a set of sliding screen doors and turned to them and bowed slightly.

Now, Goku frowned as well. The entire time she never said a word and walked a little slower than most people. Her eyes always looked ahead and nowhere else.

"Thank you," Hakkai said to her. She slowly stood then and walked past them back towards the main building. The guy's eyes followed her and watched as she walked back with no word or glance towards them or anything else.

Goku turned to Sanzo, "You getting a bad feeling about that girl as well?"

"Yeah, but it's not our business. Let's just get some rest before I kill someone." With that, Sanzo went into one of the four rooms that were given to them. The three remaining youkai stood there for a moment, contemplating this thought, before heading into their own rooms.

Later that day, the Hitachi came to their rooms and knocked on each of their doors. She never spoke a word as she lead them down back towards the main building and into one of the lounge areas where table setting had been arranged. She then disappeared behind another screen door, leaving them to sit down at the low table.

"Well isn't this nice?" Hakkai said as he looked around the nicely decorated room.

No one had any time to reply as the woman returned baring a tray filled with four glasses and a bottle of liquor, but she was not alone. Behind her came a younger girl, about the age of 15 or 16. Her black hair, like Hitachi, was half done up and she wore a similar kimono but it was white on top and melted into a deep amber color as it went down to the bottom. But like Hitachi, her eyes were a dead blue color. No spark was held in them and she seemed almost dead-like. Their wooden shoes clapped on the bamboo floor as Hitachi brought over the liquor and the other girl brought over a bit of food: seasoned cucumbers and sushi.

"Alright! Food!" Goku yelled before digging into the sushi. Gojyo started on the cucumbers. Sanzo turned to the two girls and nodded his thanks. Hakkai chuckled at the two youkai as they fought over the food.

It didn't take too long before the two girls returned with more food, but again they were not alone. Two more women followed. Hitachi set a large tray of food down in front of Sanzo while the other, younger, girl set a tray of food down for Goku. A woman of about the age of 22 set a tray of food down for Hakkai. Her long red-orange hair was completely done up with a few strands hanging down here and there with her bangs hanging down over her eyes. She wore a fire red kimono with black flames on the bottom. But her green eyes were also dead.

As was the other woman's amber eyes, who gently set down a plate of food in front of Gojyo. She wore a dark green kimono with white mixed into it here and there. Her black hair was done up with only her hangs hanging down. She looked about the age of 22 as well.

Gojyo smirked as he looked at the young women. "I'm startin to like this place. Four good looking women servin us dinner."

"I don't know about this. These girls seem a little strange," Hakkai replied at he looked at the four women. "They seem almost...emotionless."

"Yeah, you're right. But why though?" Goku asked.

Sanzo frowned at the women. The girls didn't seem to respond to their comments at all. Either they weren't listening, or something was wrong. That's when he noticed. Each girl wore limiters. Hitachi wore a set of golden earings that were no doubt limiters. The younger one wore one in the shape of a bracelet that fit snuggly on her wrist. The black haired 22 year-old wore a limiter in the form of an anklet. The redheaded one had hers on her right middle finger.

"So, how do you like the meal? Our girls are the best cooks in town!" the innkeeper said as he walked in behind the girls.

"It looks awsome!" Goku replied as he began to scarf down his food.

"Great! Nothing better for our customers. Eat as much as you like!" the man said as he laughed.

"Thank you very much. I was wondering though. Do you think that you could send one of these fine girls down to our friends room here," Hakkai asked as he motioned to Sanzo. Sanzo gave him a look that basically said "What the hell are you up to?" Hakkai smiled his mysterious smile before turning back to the innkeeper.

The innkeeper thought this over for a moment before grinning. "Of coarse I can do that for you! I will send one of these fine ladies to his room later tonight."

"Thank you," Hakkai replied with his smile still in place before he went back to eating. Something was wrong, and they were going to find out what exactly.

Ok, that kinda sucked. But it was longer as I promised!!! Hope yall like it! And Rita! I Know the characters aren't exactly how you put them but there's a reason for it I promise!
