Disclaimer: Own a few random people. Oh, and Kougaiji gave himself to my irresistable beauty!...you don't believe me, do you. sigh Damn.
The Jeep came to a town after a while. Goku was, of course, whining about how hungry he was (1). Kougaiji was quickly growing tired of it. He wanted free. Why were they doing this?
"Dammit! We're out of money! Sanzo, where's your gold card?" Sanzo shrugged.
"I spent all the money on it a while ago. Blame the monkey." Of course, Gojyo immediately picked a fight with Goku. Kougaiji sighed. It was an ever turning circle.
"Kind sahrs, I could not help but overhear you. You seem to be in a predicament. Perhaps I can help." A sleazy-looking old man with two large bodyguards approached the Jeep. Sanzo glared at him.
"What do you think you can do?" The stranger smiled a horrible smile.
"I, sahr, am a slave trader. Perhaps I can take your young prisoner there off your hands?" Kougaiji went rigid. No...not this...Hakkai glanced at Sanzo.
"Is this a good place to drop him off?" Sanzo stood.
"You can have him for..." Kougaiji's jaw dropped. He was being sold, like property. If he ever got out of this, he'd free every slave in Hotou Castle...suddenly his bonds were undone, and the two bodyguards were pulling him off the Jeep. He struggled for all he was worth, making everybody in the marketplace stare at him.
"Put me down...get your filthy paws off me! Sanzo! I'll kill you, you son of a bitch!" Sanzo shrugged.
"I never knew my mother. Maybe she was a bitch." Gojyo waved at Kougaiji.
"In any case, you just secured us a ton of money. Thanks bud!" Goku piped up.
"I get food now! Bye Kougaiji!" Kougaiji could only watch in helplessness as the Jeep drove off. The man turned to him.
"Now, let's go and get you ready for the paying customers. You are very pretty, I can get a lot for you." Kougaiji pulled at the men holding him.
"You old bastard, let me go!" A sharp slap rang out, causing anyone not already looking at the spectacle to turn. Kougaiji hung in shock; no one had ever struck him like that before. The man smirked.
"By the time I'm done with you, my unruly friend, you'll be wishing you were back in that Jeep."
(1)- I just wanted to put Goku's food fetish and the fight between Gojyo and our favorite monkey because I didn't want everyone to be too OOC. Please don't flame me.
