The Birds, The Bees, And The Monkeys
Chap.3
Miakaghost: Before I go any further, I wanted to tell you that I am not the model for Sakura. Besides…I'm a blonde. And I wear glasses. And I can't climb trees. (So I'm not incredibly physically fit. So what?)
Goku: Hey! Why are you setting me up with the girl!
Miakaghost: Cause it's funny. Now go.
Goku: Go where?
Miakaghost: To where you're supposed to be!kicks Goku on-set
Now to business……………..
"Goku, these flowers are beautiful!" Sakura smiled, setting the bouquet down on the bench beside her. "And this locket…oh, I love it."
"I'm glad."
"Goku, do you have any friends?" Sakura wondered. Goku nodded reluctantly.
"But they'll never let me live it down if they find out I like you."
"Oh, that's so sweet. But you'll just have to accept their reactions, won't you? I heard of something someone once said….si sipueda."
"Whazzat mean?"
"It mean, 'yes, I can'. So…Goku-kun….can you?"
"Si sipueda!"
"That's the spirit!"
Sanzo stared at the door as the doorknob slowly turned and the door creaked open.
"There you are, saru. I was wondering when you'd get back." He growled. Gojyo pulled the boy into the room, and nearly slammed him against the wall.
"We saw you leaving with that….girl, saru. You've got a whole lot of 'splaining to do, monkey!"
"Uh, Gojyo, 'splaining isn't a word." Hakkai pointed out. He was smiling, but it was obvious to Goku at least he was a little peeved.
"…Well, it is now." Gojyo snapped. Goku slapped Gojyo's hand off his shirt and walked back to the door, and opened it wider to reveal Sakura.
"Guys, I'd like you to meet Sakura."
There was a long silence as the three men stared at her, as she walked in and bowed.
"Hi. I heard so much about you three from Goku-kun." She replied confidently.
"So…much?" Gojyo strained an eye towards Goku, who put up his hands.
"No. I didn't say anything bad about you guys! Honest!"
"He didn't." Sakura backed him up. "From what I've heard, you're all very strong, and quite wonderful."
"Oh. Sorry for staring like that, Miss Sakura." Hakkai apologized.
"Don't call me miss. You c'n just call me Sakura." Sakura replied cheerfully.
"Well, Sakura, it's nice to meet you." Hakkai smiled. Suddenly, the windows shattered, and a group of thirty youkai burst into the room.
"We've got you now!" yelled half the group, while the other half yelled,
"Prepare to hand over the sutra, Sanzo-ikkou!"
Goku and Sakura gasped in unison, and then, also in unison, snapped,
"They're after me!" They stared at each other. "They're after you? They're after me!"
"Enough of your useless chit-chat." One youkai stepped out. He growled out, "It's time for this to end."
"Uh…" Sakura reached into her pocked and pulled out a small pink orb and a small talisman with a picture of a cat on it. Goku held out an arm in front of her.
"Don't worry, Sakura. I'll protect you." Goku leapt into the battle, and easily took out three of the youkai, tossing another two over his back in a single smooth movement before even touching the ground again.
'What's…going on? I feel…light. And I'm all….warm inside. I feel stronger…now that I'm protecting Sakura. Is this…what they call love?' Goku thought curiously.
"Goku-kun, look out!" Sakura shouted, just in time for Goku to roll out of the way of the youkai's sword. "My turn." She stood and murmured something, and the pink orb began to glow. Then, a silver rod extended from the bottom, and it changed into a staff.
"What the…" The youkai were astounded. Sakura pointed the staff at the youkai.
"Flamares lomores seterikes!" She yelled, and a bolt of fire came out of the staff and instantly destroyed the youkai. But one, who had snuck out of the fire's reach, was creeping up behind Sakura.
"Sakura, look out!" Goku suddenly moved faster than he'd ever moved before and got rid of the youkai. Then, he and Sakura turned to each other, looks of pure awe on their faces. Then, they embraced and cooed,
"You're amazing!"
A/N: Finally! I've got them all lovey-dovey now! Those who would rather he be paired with them...don't kill me! Just R/R, please!
