Another lively day in Shangi-La, another day to live while hiding in fear of the berserk Youkai on the loose. But then again, that's also why these four are going west. To stop the rage of Youkai and return peace to Shangri-La. At least, that is if they can stand each other long enough to get to India.
"DAMNIT BOTH OF YOU URUSAI!"
Came the voice of an angry priest. The shout rang through the woods as it startled some animals. A few shock birds fleed the scene afraid of what could happen if they lingered there. "Ah ha ha, now now." The demon slayer commented, smiling as he drove. The brunette in the back threw his hands in the air flustered as he sat back down, arms crossed his chest as he looked the opposite direction of the crimson hair next to him.
"This sucks, and I'm hungry." Goku said as he sighed, looking at the trees they passes. Sanzo held his forehead as his head shook back and forth. Gojyo shrugged and placed his hands behind his head as the ciggerate in his mouth stayed. "So when do we get to the next town Hakkai?" Hakkai smiled, turning his head back to his companion. "In about a few hours or so."
"Damnit Hakkai keep your eyes on the road!"
"Oh, quite sorry Sanzo."
"Hey look there's someone in the road!" Goku exclaimed pointing as the jeep came to a complete stop, inches from the fallen figure's body. Stepping out of the vheicle, the four examined the body. Pulling down the hood they found out it was a young girl, seeming to be younger then Goku by at least a year. Hakkai noticed something but kept it quiet as Goku set the girl against a tree. She had Youkai power limiters on her right ankle and left ear. Also a headband aross her forehead like Goku's. A youkai. So what was she doing here?
"What do you think?" Gojyo said scratching the back of his head. "She's cute, in a way." Sanzo shook his forehead as Hakkai made a comment with a smile. "She looks like she just fainted from hunger. Nothing that serious but I think we should help her." Goku's mouth hung low "THAT'S THE WORST!' Goku said making a horrific face. "Let's take her with us! Please Sanzo!" Sanzo pulled out his paper fan, landing a direct hit on Goku's head.
"BAKA SARU!" He yelled shaking his head as Goku held his head, jerking back tears. "Ow that hurt! What did you do that for! You're the worst! Abusive droopy eyes!" Sanzo shook his head. "Fine, we'll take her with us to the inn in the town and see what happens from there."
Sitting in the back with them between Goku and Gojyo the sat the girl as she remained unconcious. They continued driving until a few hours later, a few miles outside of town they encountered a Youkai troupe. "Hakkai, watch the girl, Gojyo come with me." Sanzo said loading his gun as the Youkai charged. As the corpses lay on the ground one of them before dying had fear in his eyes as he spotted the girl. Poitning at her he exclaimed. "You're carrying a curse with you! Worse then humans!" That was all he got to say before being decapacitated by Gojyo who let out a smirk.
"Wonder what he meant by a curse." He said, putting away his shakujou as Hakkai shrugged. "It does look awkward though, four men and a girl." Goku shrugged. "WHo cares? Let's just go. I'm still hungry." Sanzo shook his head as they got back in the jeep. A thought crossed his mind. COuld there be a reason this girl was in the road? If so, he would get answers later, when she was better.
As they got to the inn Gojyo volunteered to carry the girl to a room but Sanzo shook his head, annoyed at the thought of fufilling Gojyo's perverted goal. "Goku you wanna do it?" Goku shrugged and nodded. "Yeah." Hakkai smiled. "i'll help you." Carrying the girl Goku walked into a room followed by Hakkai. Gojyo sat back on a chair as Sanzo shook his head, turning the page to a newspaper.
Inside the room Goku set the girl on the bed, staring at her for a moment as Hakkai placed a hand on his shoulder. "Something wrong?" He asked and Goku shrugged. "Not sure, she just looks...So familiar..." Goku sighed and sat down by the bedside as Hakkai pulled up her shirt as Goku's eyes widened.
"What are you doing?"
"When we found her I noticed she had quite a few wounds. I'm going to wrap them up."
Hakkai smiled and Goku turned red, facing the opposite direction. An hour later Hakkai finished up and smiled. "You can look now." Goku nodded and turned again, staring at the girl's face. "She has quite a few scars all around her body." Hakkai commented, a frown on his face. "Come on, let's go eat." He smiled and Goku grinned at the thought of food.
"Give me back my pork Gojyo!" Goku shouted, trying to grasp his food back from the water sprite. Gojyo smirked and gobbled it down as Goku sulked, now yelling at him as Hakkai and Sanzo watched. Sanzo, having enough patience for the both of them whacked them on the head, shaking his head afterwards. "Eat..Quietly..."
hakkai smiled as Goku rubbed his head and sat back down, Gojyo shrugged and placed his chin on his head. "So..What are we gonna do about the girl?" Sanzo shrugged, cross his arms and closing his eyes. "We'll ask her questions later, anyway, who's gonna watch her? Goku?" He asked and looked around for the saru, finding no one where the child was last seen, the plate of food also gone. "I think I know where he went Sanzo, don't worry." Hakkai said with a smile.
