"Give me back that meat bun!"
"And what if I don't?"
Normal day, Sanzo closed his eyes trying to block to sounds of the fighting. No use, he reached into his pocket and started to pull out his gun.
"You two, why don't just split it in half or something? We are all getting headaches."
Sanzo let go of the gun. It has been a month since they found Kyo. The girl was much like Goku. Golden diadem around her forehead, brought to heaven, very dangerous, and big appetite. But she was different. She had wielded the power of the chosen one. Somehow, Sanzo was fond of this girl.
Hakkai laughed. "Wow, you stopped a fight between Goku and Goyjo, you a saint or something?"
"Funny Hakkai." Kyo leaned on the seat. "I'm gonna sleep, so don't make me solve anymore fights."
Goyjo rolled his crimson eyes. "Woman. Can't live with them and can't live without them."
Goku looked at Kyo. He had recently confessed he loved her. She now had the same weaknesses and strengths as him, now not a chosen one. She said she liked him to, but they tried to keep their relationship small.
"What's this?" Sanzo pulled a piece of paper from the front of Jeep's grate and read it aloud to the rest.

"That sound like fun! Lets join, can we Sanzo?"
"No."
"Why not, Kougaiji's stepmother can't revive Gyumoah with out the Matan scripture."
"Fine, but just this once, and I'm not going to fight, got it?"
"Cool." Kyo opened her eyes. "I've always wanted to try one of these."
"Hakkai, how much longer to Paratin Coliseum?"
"Just a couple hours, just be patient Goku."
---Paratin Coliseum---
"Names?" A blunt man sitting in a booth looked at the Sanzo party.
"Cho Hakkai, Sha Goyjo, Son Goku, and Samu Kyomi."
Goku looked anxiously around at the many other participants. "When will the compotation start?"
"Tomorrow. Here is a list of rules. How many rooms would you like?"
"Two, and a cot in one of them." Sanzo didn't mind saying two rooms anymore. Anyone could sleep with Kyo and the rest would have to deal with him or Hakkai.
The man nodded handing Sanzo two keys. "Thanks, when you want dinner call room service." They nodded and started to walk away. "Wait a moment." They paused. "I need to talk to the dame."
Kyo frowned. "Don't call me dame. I'll meet you guys in the rooms, and I call one of the beds in the two person room." She walked back to the man.
"I call the other!" Goku smiled. "Oh, and is it dinnertime?"
"Bakasaru! We just got here."
Later that night, Kyo came back for dinner.
"What did the guy want?" Goku shoved down some stir-fry.
"He asked some strange questions." Kyo sat and grabbed a couple dumplings. "Like how old are you, where are you from, stuff like that." She stuffed one in her mouth. "Oh, and he gave me these, he said to give them to you." She handed out some papers to the men.
"It looks like what section we are in. I'm in section A."
Goku spilt some teriyaki sauce on the paper. "Eew, well mine says B."
"Section C here."
"I got section D. Guess I might have to fight one of you." Kyo stuffed another dumpling in her mouth. "Hey Sanzo, are you gonna watch?"
Sanzo pulled out a pack of cigarettes and put one in his mouth. "Sure, whatever. I'm going to bed, Hakkai, make sure you and Goyjo don't make any sound."
Hakkai laughed. "Yes sir."
"I'm heading to bed too." Kyo popped her last dumpling in her mouth. "Gotta get ready for tomorrow." She headed out to the next room. "Night all."
"Night."
The next morning, Goku was the first one up. "Wake up Kyo, we'll be late!"
Kyo rolled on her side. "C'mon, five more minutes?"
Goku tugged on the sleeve. "Come on! I already got breakfast on the table, now eat up while I wake the others."
Kyo slid out of bed and walked to the table. She slumped in a chair and grabbed a bowl of rice. "Hm? What's this?" She picked up a flower and a note on the tray. "Lets see, Good luck and don't give up." She looked at the flower. It was a sunflower, but something seemed wrong with it. Kyo lifted it to her nose when a pinkish spray emerged from the flower. She coughed, but nothing seemed to happen. Strange.
"Come on, hurry up!" Goku popped his head in the door.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." She took a meat bun and headed out the door. What was that?
---Coliseum Round 1---
"And the winner is…Son Goku!" The crowd cheered. A couple girls were shouting asking for his number. Sanzo sighed.
"Sad people, well, next should be Kyo."
Kyo entered eating her meat bun. She wore a black sports jacket and black baggy pants that were obviously too big on her. Her hair was tied in a ponytail and she wore a bandana to cover her diadem. Everyone noticed that she was the only girl fighting and others noticed that she seemed a little woozy.
Goku ran over to her concerned. "Kyo, you ok? You look kinda funky."
"Just fine, kinda tired though." She walked to the ring. On the opposite side was a man, probably the same age as Sanzo sharpening his spear. He looked up and smiled.
"Hello, my name is Nanami. So chickie, what you doing playing with the big boys?"
Kyo smirked. "First of all, the name is Kyo, not chickie, and I'm not as weak as you think."
Nanami stood up and went into the ring. "I'm that case, expect no mercy."
Kyo walked into the ring as well. "Wouldn't ask for any other way."
An announcer stood by the ring. "Nanami from section E against Kyomi from section D. Ready? Fight!"
Kyo extended her arm. "Yokoa Ice Brand!" a light shone in her hand and a double-sided sword appeared in her hand.
Nanami smiled. "So how did you like your flower?"
Kyo paused. "You sent that to me?"
"Yes, and you know that pink smoke that you inhaled? It is made from a rare herb that causes summoning weapons to unusable. Now Yokoa, disappear!"
The Yokoa suddenly shimmered and turned into a puff of pink smoke.
"Hey, that's cheating!" Goku looked furious.
The smoke cleared and everyone saw Nanami charging towards Kyo. With nothing to defend herself with, she dodged.
"You ass!" she landed on her feet on the other side of the ring.
Nanami smiled. He turned and charged again. This time, Kyo stood still watching his foot pattern. He pulled his spear hand back ready to puncture her when she ducked and kicked him in the ankle, causing him to fall and drop the spear.
Kyo quickly grabbed the spear and pointed it towards Nanami's throat. "Give up yet?" Nanami looked at the sharpened spear point and cringed.
"Yes, yes I give up, please don't kill me!" Kyo dropped the spear as the crowd stared in amazement.
"Uh, the winner is Samu Kyomi." There was a pause, and then everyone cheered.
Kyo walked off stage towards the Sanzo party. "So, how did I do?"
They looked at her in awe. "How, how did you learn those moves?"
"I really don't know, everything just came to me."
"What was your weapon called?"
"Huh? Oh, you mean Yokoa, a special blade with many forms effective towards many enemies. Kinda like your Nyoiboh Goku."
"Woooow!"
The announcer approached the stand. "All right folks, for the last fight of the day, to decide who will be in the semi finals, Goku from section A against Kyomi form section D. Lets hear some noise!"
Goku and Kyo looked at each other. "Already? I thought we would have some time."
"Guess we'll have to fight."
Kyo walked back into the ring. "Good luck Goku, you'll need it."
Goku smiled "You too. And don't hold back, I wanna see blood."
"Ready? Fight!"
Goku wasted no time and charged to Kyo. She jumped and landed behind him, before he could react, she packed a solid punch knocking him down.
"Come on Goku, this is to easy." Kyo stepped on his stomach, making him cough up a little blood.
Goku summoned his Nyoiboh and swung it making Kyo lose her balance. He got on his knee holding his stomach with one hand and using the other to punch Kyo in stomach.
She caught his fist and kneed him in the…uh…you know…
Goku fell rolling in pain while Kyo stood up and kicked him in the side. Goku flew off the stage and into the stonewall. He fell flat on his face.
"Out of the ring, start the counting, you have till ten to get back in the ring or Kyomi is the winner. 1…2…3…4…5…"
"Hold it!" A man in a suit holding a martini came into the ring. He lifted Kyo's chin and looked in her eyes. "Lovely eyes, bright like the sun and the color of it too."
Kyo moved his hand away. "Who the hell are you?"
He smiled. "You can call me Mr. Tamikachi. I'm the one who set up this tournament. I say that Son Goku lost this match." He pulled her bandana off, revealing the diadem.
Goku was carried out of the ring where nurses aided to him. Kyo started after him.
"Where are you going?" Mr. Tamikachi smiled; he pressed a button on the side of the stadium walls, making the sides of the ring to open a little. Out of the cracks came chains that sought out and clasped around Kyo's wrists.
"Wha? What's going on?"
Mr. Tamikachi stepped forward. "Sorry Kyomi, but this was just a trap to lure woman like you. This really is a slave market trap, today's special, Samu Kyomi. Oh, and don't try to struggle, no youkai or even monster can break out of those chains."
"Hey! You give us back Kyo right now!" Goyjo prepared his Shakujo.
A trap door opened underneath the Sanzo party and they fell.
Mr. Tamikachi stepped over the crack and lifted her chin. "Alright folks, if you want to buy Kyo and see others like her, come to Tomashi, a town just a mile west from here. Remember, this is not illegal." Mr. Tamikachi left.
"Why does this always happen to me? I am SO over being damsel in distress." Kyo struggled a little, but eventually a man came forward and stuck a syringe into her neck. Kyo's eyes rolled into her head and she fell unconscious.
Goku awoke in the hotel room with Sanzo and Goyjo flipping through papers and Hakkai making some soup. He sat up and shook his head. "Uh, where's Kyo? I thought she would be back by now."
Goyjo looked up from the papers. "You awake? It seems like the person who set up this tournament actually set a trap to find tough woman to sell in a slave market."
Sanzo twisted his cigarette butt in the ashtray. "Get over here monkey, we need help looking for the closest one."
Goku got up and sighed. "She always seems to be damsel in distress, must be hard." He took a pile of papers and looked them over. "Found it. Tomashi Mansion. Just looks like a huge house to me."
Sanzo grabbed the sheet of paper and looked it over. He took out a blueprint and found what he was searching for. The Summer Room. "The Summer Room is where newly found slaves go. I'm thinking Kyo would be here."
Goyjo grabbed a picture of Kyo and stuffed it in his pocket. "Got it. Lets rumble."
---Tomashi Mansion---
Kyo awoke on a soft bed. She couldn't remember what happened at the coliseum, all she knew was she was chained to the ground and her friends disappearing in a hole in the ground. She closed her eyes. Her head felt like it would burst open.
"She's awake sir. I'll get her ready sir." An older girl she had never seen before was talking to a man. The girl's blond hair draped against her body, a silver band circled her arm and she wore a long green cloth. Kyo shock her head. Where the hell am I? The girl walked to Kyo and smiled.
"Hello, my name is Chihiro." She gave Kyo a cup of water. "Welcome to Tomashi Mansion."
"Hn." Kyo looked around the big room; it was a bright jade color with antiques everywhere. Kyo looked at herself now, she was wearing a cloth similar to the one Chihiro was wearing; only it was white. She also noticed the silver band on her left wrist. Kyo tried to take it off.
"You can't, it is a shock device with a tracker so you can't run away." Chihiro opened the curtain letting the light stream in. Kyo squinted, but soon grew used to the bright sun beaming on her.
"Shock device? What the hell is this place?"
"Tomashi Mansion, the world's most famous and elegant slavery." She took a small mechanism from the table and turned a little knob.
"Ow!" Kyo looked into Chihiro's deep blue eyes. "What the hell was that for?"
Chihiro smiled. "Follow me." She grabbed Kyo's hand and led her to an office. "Sir, Kyomi Samu here."
Kyo looked into the eyes of three men. "Uh, hi?"
"Don't talk until said to." One man yapped. "Stand straight, chin up, and don't use your attitude with me." He turned the knob on the mechanism. Kyo jumped as the shock circled through her body.
One of the men fixed his glasses. "So this little runt is the strongest you have ever seen, making Nanami forfeit in less then five minutes even with the herb?"
The third man, Mr. Tamikachi, nodded. "Yes, but she is very determined and picky, not likely to do what others tell her to do."
The glasses man smiled. "The legend of the girl locked in Chikomi, that is definitely her. Well worth a lot of money."
"Yes." The first man agreed. "We shall charm this girl. Chihiro, change her band to power 1000. When that is done, take her to the market, she is to be sold ASAP. When she is sold, bring her to the fixing room, tell them to use 666 on her"
Chihiro grabbed Kyo's arm. "Come girl." And they exited.
Later that day, the sale begun. Five young woman including Kyo were lined up. Mr. Tamikachi smiled and spoke.
"Gentlemen, today we have a treat, the legend of the girl locked away in Mount Chikomi are true! Today with us is Samu Kyomi." He turned the knob on the mechanism. Kyo let out a yelp and stepped forward toward the men. "Our youngest so far, size D, can beat ten of the strongest men in two minutes flat."
The men whispered. One by one, they studied her up close.
"Ok gentlemen, this girl can be used for anything, from lover to solider, the Renati's curse will be placed on her so she will be obedient. Now, do I hear Three million?"
"Three mill."
"Four."
"Five million and a chocolate chip cookie."
"Five million and a chocolate chip cookie going once…twice…"
"Fifty million" A big man stepped forward.
"Ah, sold to Mr. Hito. She will be waiting at the front gate."
"My driver will pick her up." Hito left.
Mr. Tamikachi smiled. "Kyomi, you have just been sold to Hito, the richest man in the world. He comes here a lot to buy slaves for his inn in Mysuta." He looked at Chihiro, "Take her away."
Chihiro finally got to a room and made Kyo stay still. A big man entered holding an old box made of pine. Two other men that looked like wrestlers in suits came after. One of the wrestlers held Kyo's arms tightly while the other undid the pin holding the cloth up.
"What the hell? Lemme go now!" Kyo shouted and kicked at the two men, but they just laughed as if the pain she was giving them was like a feather. The other man opened the box and took out an old slip of paper.
"Renati's curse. Whoever this charm is placed upon will be a like a lifeless doll, obeying every orders they are given." The man placed it on Kyo's back. Green sparks came out making Kyo howl. The man said something in a foreign language and everything went black.
"This itches like crazy." The Sanzo-ikkou decided to do two trips, one to see what it was like and the other to break Kyo out.
"You sure they haven't sold her yet?" They were all in disguise or attempting to. Goku was wearing a plaid t-shirt and jeans, he hid his diadem with a baseball cap.
"I never said that, but I think they most likely kept her." Sanzo was wearing a red V-neck and jeans. He hid his blond hair under a red wig.
Goyjo frowned. "Damn, I look pretty darn hot." Goyjo wore a tan shirt unbuttoned and a black jacket with a matching hat and slacks. He had his crimson hair in a ponytail and a couple necklaces around his neck.
Hakkai laughed. He wore a pale green shirt and a gray suit. To top it off, he wore a bright red tie.
They were on a tour of the mansion. Goyjo was pretty happy to see all these woman running around. He stopped one of them in her tracks.
"Hey honey, how about you and I going somewhere special tonight?"
Chihiro giggled. "Sorry, but I'm busy."
Goyjo frowned; he rummaged through his pocket and found the picture of Kyo. "Ok then, have you seen this girl around anywhere?"
She took the picture and looked at it. "Yes, this is Kyomi, sour attitude she got."
Sanzo stepped in. "We would like to, uh, examine her."
"I'm sorry sir, but she was sold two days ago to Mr. Hito."
Goku popped in. "mister who?"
"Mr. Hito, owner of an inn in Mysuta, a town west of here."
"Let's go guys." The party left.
