Chapter 6: The Legendary Lucky Heretic Girl Gambler
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Few days have passed after they've meet Hikki and Rika, Gojyo and Goku started to fight, "Aaahhh!? Ero Kappa that's my last piece of siumai, Hikki-chan gave it to me!! Kaite! (Give it back!)" Goku shouted angrily. "Ehh!? I already ate it, baka saru!!" Gojyo stick out his tongue. "Grrr.. Now you're making me angry!! I'll."Goku didn't finish his sentence, Sanzo hit them with his Harisen ten times each. "Bakeru! How many times do I have to tell you shut your mouth up while I'm asleep!!" Sanzo shouted at them very angrily with veins popping on his forehead.
On Rika's dragon-cat-like form, where the girls were riding Kairi laughed very hard until she couldn't take it anymore. "Hahahaha! You guys still fights like oniichans (big brothers)." She said as she stopped laughing the word that she mentions were familiar. "Oniichans." she mutters looking down. "Are you okay Kairi?" Hikki asked. Kairi snapped out of her mind. "Desumi, (nothing) Hikki-chan." She answers. Hikki looked at Sai ad Reijyo then they looked at her back.
They travel for many hours until they almost reach the town, Rika transform back into its original form. As they enter the town they suspect that the town was having a festival. Few men saw them and began to whisper and Sanzo notice them. "Gee, I didn't know that this town has a festival." Kairi and Sai said in chibi. "Mou harahetta Sanzo~! (I'm hungry!)" Goku whined as his stomach growl, they looked at him with a major sweat-drop except Kairi only smiled very cute, "So what are we gonna do now, Sanzo?" Hakkai asked. But Sanzo ignore the fact and start walking through the streets, "I guess that's a 'no' answer for Sanzo-sama." Gojyo and Reijyo said together with their eyes irritated. "You guys go ahead I'll just look around to see what's cool in this town. Oh and I'll meet you all at the inn." Kairi said as she walked away with Rika on her arms. "Matte (Wait up) Kairi, I'll go with you, too!" Goku said as he catches up with Kairi. "Why don't we have fun too, na Hakkai-chan?" Hikki asked holding Hakkai's arm. "Hai, hai shall we." Hakkai asked smiling at her and Hikki nod. Hakkai and Hikki left Sai, Sanzo, Reijyo and Gojyo behind, they all stared at Hakkai and Hikki. "Well I'll go and do some gambling." Gojyo suggest himself and walked away.
"OI matte (hey wait up), Gojyo! I'm coming with you too!" Reijyo shout chasing after him behind. That's leave Sai and Sanzo behind, Sai looked at the corrupted monk and Sanzo looked at her "Well are you going to joined them too?" Sanzo asked her. "As if I. I don't have time for this." Sai answer with vertical eyes.
"Nee Kairi. What're you going to do? I know it's a festival they sells lots of foods and stuffs, but you don't have money." Goku said. "Mou daijoubu, Goku. (Don't worry) I have my own money. Mite! (Look!)" Kairi answer as she shown him the money and Goku was impressed. "Hikki-chan gave it to me since we're riding at Rika-chan. Nee Rika-chan?" she said in chibi. "Hai Kairi-sama. I know you guys were playing card games with betting money and you won against them." Rika answer with vertical eyes as she remembers during their journey they were playing card game. "Just like 500 years you used to be until now you're still good at it." She whispers to herself. "Then will you treat me. Ore wa harahetta! (I'm hungry)" Goku said holding his stomach. "Okay I'll treat you!" Kairi shouted excitedly. Behind from Kairi and Goku few men were watching at the two heretic youngsters.
In the Inn where Sai and Sanzo are staying in the rooms they reserved then Hikki and Hakkai came back. "Tadaima!" they said their lines together smiling. "It's about time you came back, Hakkai, Hikki." Sanzo said very seriously, "What's the matter with you Sanzo? You seem to be aware of this town?" Hikki said. "As if. There's something a little fishy here. Those men of this town seem that they've known about us somewhere." Sanzo answered as he was smoking. "You mean those men that you saw are youkais are here already?" Hakkai said in surprise "No that not his point, Hakkai. Not youkais." Sai answer who was also very serious. "I've noticed those men when we enter this town, it seem they were whispering about Kairi. It's seemed they're not on the mission to assassinate us." Sanzo answers.
Back to Goku and Kairi, they were eating many foods. "Well what do you think?" Kairi asked in chibi after they bought so many foods that they've wanted to eat. "They were great! I can't wait to eat another one!" exclaimed Goku as his eyes are watery with gratefulness. "Ano. I don't want to interrupt you Kairi-sama but I think we should look for the inn already it's already a bit late." Rika suggest worrying Kairi. Three men went toward to the youngsters, "Yo there young chick would you like to hang out with us in gambling?" he asked Kairi. "Yea, it'll be great." another one said. "Sorry but I have to meet my friends and my sisters at the inn right now. Let's go, Goku." she said.
The third one held Kairi's arm "Don't try to run away from us." he said, Goku tried to protect Kairi but two men were blocking him. Rika was about to attack the men but then someone hit them with stones, it was Gojyo and Reijyo "Oi, kono Baka Sarus (Hey you stupid monkeys)! Do you think it's safer if you go out alone without an adult?" Gojyo and said. "Bad things will happen if you were walking alone by yourself." Reijyo said. "Gojyo! Reijyo!!" Kairi mutter under her breathe while her right hand is fisting with veins popping. "Whom do you call 'Saru,' Kono Ero Kappa!!" Goku shouted at the elder "But thanks Gojyo, those men were trying to join me in their gamble." Kairi told them with a little carefree "What for?" Reijyo asked. "Umm. maybe it's because I have strong luck. That's why they want me to join them so they could win lots of money." she answered in chibi.
"It's that so?" Gojyo asked confusedly. "Na, ikkeyou! (Let's go!) Hakkai, Hikki, Sai and Sanzo might be waiting for us." Goku insist, "Oi you ain't going nowhere until you played with us." hissed the man who was standing up "Ara... ara. It's seemed that they don't want to let us go. What are we gonna do now Gojyo, Goku, Reijyo?" she asked them. "Well it does seem that we don't have any choice but to gamble." Reijyo respond seriously "Reijyo!?" two youngsters said surprise. "Let's do it." Gojyo join Reijyo. "Not you too, Gojyo." whined the two youngsters. "Good if we win we'll take that girl." they said. "But if we win you better give your money to us." Gojyo replied.
They went to the bar where all gamblers were playing, and then they stared at Kairi as Goku, Reijyo and Gojyo enter with her in the bar, "Hey isn't that the girl with golden eyes? It's the Lucky Gambler Golden Eyed Girl the very lucky charm girl of the gambling?" the men asked pointing at Kairi. "You're right look at her eyes, she has golden eyes. This must be a very lucky day to see a golden eyed girl in our town." another one said "I wonder why they call Kairi the 'Lucky Golden Eyed Girl Gambler,' huh?" Goku asked. "Um...eeerrr, maybe they thought I brought good luck charm on gambling. Then they called me 'Lucky Golden Eyed Girl Gambler,' but I remember a little that I'd used to played and win so many times of gambling." she said in chibi. "Or maybe they heard some news about 500 years ago there was a family has a child of a heretic girl just like you Kairi-sama have enter this bar with her two elder brothers. Few men ask the two brothers if their little sister can play this game, but they refuse his order then the girl agree. The heretic girl bet so many until she won a hundred thousands Yen. Then their parents came over this bar and told them never played it again. Years have passed until they've never seen that girl again." Rika told her the story.
"Oh. I didn't know you knew about this." Reijyo said as she held her forehead in unhappy. "I only heard those chit chats or rumors when I'm wondering around the place until I live with Hikki-san." Rika told Reijyo with a pain look. "Enough of this talk. Let's played! Only this Lucky Gambler Golden Eyed Girl will play against us." the leader of the men roar.
Back where Sanzo, Sai, Hakkai and Hikki in the inn, they've have waited there almost for 2 hours "It's been more than an hour they've been on the festival." Hakkai said while patting Hakuryuu, "Yeah, I wonder where they could have been this hour." Sai wonder. "Let's go." Sanzo orders. "Where?" Hikki asked. "Where else could it be. To the bar of course." he said.
Back in the bar, Kairi have won thirty times from thirty men who played against her 'Heh this is very easy. I'll bet she'll win this round.' said Gojyo in his mind, Kairi just smiled while holding her cards up and Goku was staring at the battle between the gamblers. "How about this? Four Kinds. Queens and Kings." the first man said as he put down his card, "Ano... I've also got Four Kinds too. But they're Queens." Kairi said as she put down her cards. The man couldn't believe his eyes Kairi's cards are Four Kinds Queens. "Oh that's really a Queens, Kairi." Reijyo praised of her imouto (little sister). "Dammit! I can't believe that I've lost from a kid!" the man said as he gave the money to Kairi. "So could we go now? I don't want to play poker or this gambling game anymore. I need to eat lunch." Kairi said.
"Wait a minute!" a female voice called, they looked at the woman with a short green hair, red eyes, she was wearing a tight Chinese t-shirt, a super-mini-skirt and a silver bracelet on her both wrist which made the men's nose bleeding and also Gojyo but he wipe his nose immediately and Reijyo got jealous because that woman was too sexy. "I also want to play with you since you're still a kid, I'm a woman and we're both females. I'll bet a thousand yen." she said as she hand out a bag full of money. "But I." Kairi said but the men interrupt her "Wow! That's a real hot thing you've got, Sis!" they roar. Then Gojyo, Reijyo and Goku have sense a demonic smell from the woman, "Let's go then." the woman said seriously.
Hakkai, Hikki, Sai and Sanzo have arrived in the bar just time "So that's where you were all about." Hakkai said still smiling as usual, "You were playing poker all the time?" Hikki said with sweat-drop. "It's about time that you'll show up. If you didn't shown up I might ended up playing poker." Kairi said. Then Sanzo hit Kairi, Goku, Reijyo and Gojyo with his paper fan, then Sai took Sanzo's Harisen and hit them back. "Ittei (ouch), why did you do that for, Sanzo, Sai?" Gojyo and Reijyo whined while the Goku and Kairi are rubbing their heads "For being late!!" They shouted together with veins popping "Ikuzo (let's go)!" ordered Sanzo. "Oi we haven't started our battle yet, Lucky Golden Eyed Girl Gambler. Are you planning to run away?" she asked. Sanzo, Sai, Hikki, and Hakkai also felt an evil aura from the woman so as Kairi, "Who says that I'm running away? I'm just going to eat dinner with them. Oh. by the way don't you ever disguise yourself as a pretty chick okay." she said seriously.
Then she attacked the woman using with her Butterfly sword, but the woman avoid her attacks, she smiled evilly "That was a good close, Celestial Kairi." she said. She removed her silver bracelets both of her wrists and become a Lady Snake youkai, it has many heads of snakes sharing in one body. The men in the bar were terrified to see the woman's true form so they ran out of the bar "I knew that you're a youkai after all. For once and all don't call me Celestial Kairi. It's Li Kairi!!!" Kairi said excitedly but still angry "Hey don't start the fun without us, Kairi!!" Goku shouted as he summons his nyoibou, and attacked the youkai. "Before we could settle our battle let's do it outside!" Hakkai suggest, "Nande yo (what is it), Hakkai?" "It's just that I don't want to involve the town." Hakkai replied with a smile. "Come on Hakkai that's not the real reason. Tell us!" Kairi shouted. "It's because we haven't finish our shopping yet." Hikki replied with a smile. "I see." Reijyo replied with her eyes closed with sweat-drop.
They all went outside of the bar and out of the town just like what Hakkai suggests. The Lady Snake Woman looked at the Sanzo-ikkou, the Li sisters and Hikki with an evil smile. "This is more interesting the Li sisters and Sanzo are both here yet they're all look delicious if I eat the all." sly the Lady Snake Woman. "Why don't you shut your mouth, you dull witch!" Kairi shouted with veins popping on her forehead. And she started to fight, she manages to hit the Snake Demon but it blocked her move. "Is that it Princess Kairi? Too bad you're going to Hell right now." said the demon. "Then try this!!" shout Hikki and Sai attacking the demon behind. But it also blocks their attacks too. "Nani (what)!?" "Nice close, Celestial Sai and Celestial Hikki." said the demon then it attacks the Sanzo-ikkou. "Nee how can we finish that demon?" Reijyo asked while attacking the demon.
"And more importantly where are Rika and Kairi?" Hakkai asked.
They noticed Kairi and Rika are nowhere to be found, "Maybe they've run away so we could finish this battle on our own." Sanzo said with a cold voice. "Kairi wouldn't do that! She likes to fight when demons are here!" Sai shouted. The Lady Snake Woman attack them with a surprise but someone attack the demon first, "Nani who did that to me?" the demon shouted. "What else could it be only me and Rika-chan!" Kairi shouted coming out of the dark forest. "Kairi!? Where's Rika?" Hikki asked. Kairi smiled and look at her new form butterfly sword, "Are you okay now, Rika-chan?" she asked her sword. The sword was divided by two, it has a black sword that has design a ying-yang sign that has the power of everything and the other sword was blue that has the power of snow and water its energy level was higher and higher than her old butterfly sword. "Hai (yes), Kairi-sama." The sword reply, Sai knew that voice. "That voice's Rika in that new form of sword?" she exclaimed "Masaka Rika-chan can form Kairi's sword like that!?" Hikki exclaimed surprise. "So the legend was true after all. That cat can change Celestial Kairi's sword into different kind of sword for what she want." the lady youkai whisper herself looking at the heretic girl and the new sword. "Hah! So what if you change your sword! You won't defeat my immortal life!" she shouted at them.
Kairi and Goku looked at each other and smiled then they disappeared suddenly, "What the--!?" "Where did the sarus (monkeys) go suddenly?" Gojyo asked. The youkai wanted to attacked them surprise but then two childish saru have appeared at the back of the youkai, and finally knocked it "We're the best!!" they said together. While the demon was still conscious, she was trying to get up to fight them. "I-I can't believe it they're extremely strong than I thought." the demon whispers. She wanted to run away but then Reijyo blocked its way, then she kicks it hard. Gojyo cut the youkai's arm, Hakkai used his Ki and lastly Sanzo used his gun and aim at the head. The demon died.
Rika turned back to herself and the sword turn back to its old original form "That was cool! When did you learn to change your sword Kairi?" Reijyo asked. "It's a secret." Kairi answers with red marks on her right chin with a childish smile at them. While Reijyo and Goku want to know. Rika was still watching at the heretic girl in deep thoughts. "Kairi-sama." she whispers softly. Then Hikki was near on her side who was thinking very deeply at the Sanzo-ikkou and the Li sisters. "They're all have the same personality and faces demo. why Sai, Reijyo and Kairi have lost their memories?" she asks herself. "But it doesn't matter as long Hakkai was here I am no longer alone just like the past."
"Bakero!" Sanzo shout and hit Reijyo, Goku and Kairi with his Harisen. They held their forehead in pain. Hikki sigh softly. "Let's go back now." Sai said. "Hai." They said together.

Kairi said excitedly but still angry "Hey don't start the fun without us, Kairi!!" Goku shouted as he summons his nyoibou, and attacked the youkai. "Before we could settle our battle let's do it outside!" Hakkai suggest, "Nande yo (what is it), Hakkai?" "It's just that I don't want to involve the town." Hakkai replied with a smile. "Come on Hakkai that's not the real reason. Tell us!" Kairi shouted. "It's because we haven't finish our shopping yet." Hikki replied with a smile. "I see." Reijyo replied with her eyes closed with sweat-drop.
They all went outside of the bar and out of the town just like what Hakkai suggests. The Lady Snake Woman looked at the Sanzo-ikkou, the Li sisters and Hikki with an evil smile. "This is more interesting the Li sisters and Sanzo are both here yet they're all look delicious if I eat the all." sly the Lady Snake Woman. "Why don't you shut your mouth, you dull witch!" Kairi shouted with veins popping on her forehead. And she started to fight, she manages to hit the Snake Demon but it blocked her move. "Is that it Princess Kairi? Too bad you're going to Hell right now." said the demon. "Then try this!!" shout Hikki and Sai attacking the demon behind. But it also blocks their attacks too. "Nani (what)!?" "Nice close, Celestial Sai and Celestial Hikki." said the demon then it attacks the Sanzo-ikkou. "Nee how can we finish that demon?" Reijyo asked while attacking the demon.
"And more importantly where are Rika and Kairi?" Hakkai asked.
They noticed Kairi and Rika are nowhere to be found, "Maybe they've run away so we could finish this battle on our own." Sanzo said with a cold voice. "Kairi wouldn't do that! She likes to fight when demons are here!" Sai shouted. The Lady Snake Woman attack them with a surprise but someone attack the demon first, "Nani who did that to me?" the demon shouted. "What else could it be only me and Rika-chan!" Kairi shouted coming out of the dark forest. "Kairi!? Where's Rika?" Hikki asked. Kairi smiled and look at her new form butterfly sword, "Are you okay now, Rika-chan?" she asked her sword. The sword was divided by two, it has a black sword that has design a ying-yang sign that has the power of everything and the other sword was blue that has the power of snow and water its energy level was higher and higher than her old butterfly sword. "Hai (yes), Kairi-sama." The sword reply, Sai knew that voice. "That voice's Rika in that new form of sword?" she exclaimed "Masaka Rika-chan can form Kairi's sword like that!?" Hikki exclaimed surprise. "So the legend was true after all. That cat can change Celestial Kairi's sword into different kind of sword for what she want." the lady youkai whisper herself looking at the heretic girl and the new sword. "Hah! So what if you change your sword! You won't defeat my immortal life!" she shouted at them.
Kairi and Goku looked at each other and smiled then they disappeared suddenly, "What the--!?" "Where did the sarus (monkeys) go suddenly?" Gojyo asked. The youkai wanted to attacked them surprise but then two childish saru have appeared at the back of the youkai, and finally knocked it "We're the best!!" they said together. While the demon was still conscious, she was trying to get up to fight them. "I-I can't believe it they're extremely strong than I thought." the demon whispers. She wanted to run away but then Reijyo blocked its way, then she kicks it hard. Gojyo cut the youkai's arm, Hakkai used his Ki and lastly Sanzo used his gun and aim at the head. The demon died.
Rika turned back to herself and the sword turn back to its old original form "That was cool! When did you learn to change your sword Kairi?" Reijyo asked. "It's a secret." Kairi answers with red marks on her right chin with a childish smile at them. While Reijyo and Goku want to know. Rika was still watching at the heretic girl in deep thoughts. "Kairi-sama." she whispers softly. Then Hikki was near on her side who was thinking very deeply at the Sanzo-ikkou and the Li sisters. "They're all have the same personality and faces demo. why Sai, Reijyo and Kairi have lost their memories?" she asks herself. "But it doesn't matter as long Hakkai was here I am no longer alone just like the past."
"Bakero!" Sanzo shout and hit Reijyo, Goku and Kairi with his Harisen. They held their forehead in pain. Hikki sigh softly. "Let's go back now." Sai said. "Hai." They said together.
