Chapter 2: Thief, Captured!

" Fire!" yelled Rath grabbing the tiny dragon around the neck and practically strangling him. "What are you doing! that was the last of our food!" he yelled.I'm sorry! I couldn't help my self! choked fire holding up a sign while still being strangled by the enraged rath. "this is just great! now what are we supposed to do for food?" complained thatz with his stomach growling still. -WHACK!- a fan comes out of no where and hits poor thatz in the head.

you shouldn't talk! You're the one who ate it all last time! "But-" protested thatz, but he was only met with another blow to the head. "Ow ow ow ooww!" yelled thatz as Earth started hitting him off the top of the head with the fan repeatedly.( ! stole Sanzo's fan!)

- Bang Bang Bang-

yipe! what the! yelled the little dragon dodging the bullets that seemed to have come out of no where. What was that! the little dragon looking slightly worried. " wait bullets? uh-oh..." said rath. what is it rath? asked Earth, then he felt a shadow looming over him. the terrified dragon turned around only to find...

Mushrooms!...? okay maybe not...

... he turned around to find a golden haired , purple eyed man in priest robes standing behind him. " what are you doing with my fan?" said the priest with a vein popping out of his head. um...well you see i ...uh... Earth said sweat-dropping as he tried to back away a bit. just then the priest reached down and grabbed the fan from the frightened dragon, glared at him for a moment, then spoke in a serious yet calm voice " Why did you take it?".uh...bili levea fula... said the little dragon not making must sense at all. then the priest exploded. "WHAT WERE YOU DOING WITH MY FAN YOU DAMN BRAT!" yelled the priest slamming the fan on the poor dragon's head.

EEEEYAAAHH! Earth cried in agony. "Hey! Leave Earth alone!" said rath slightly angered. " Wha? Ugh... Not you again..." said the priest also sounding a little agitated. then they all heard voices coming for the direction that the priest had come from. "Oi! Sanzo! Damn it! where the hell'd that damn corrupt priest go!" (gun clicks)said a cocky voice. "Gojyo, you know that if sanzo heard that he'd kill you." said a kinder less violent voice,but , it still had a hint of anger in it. a few seconds later, three people came into view. two of them were brunettes and the other was a red head.

(A/N: and when i say red, i mean RED. like blood red not that weird orangish red but red. Just for people who aren't familiar with the Saiyuki series. ;)

" You care to repeat that you damn kappa." said sanzo pointing his gun at the red-head's face. "Uh... I d-didn't say a-any , O high and mighty lord sanzo." the red-head stuttered nervously only earning two bullets shot in his direction. "Say that again and you die." threatened sanzo looking extremely agitated. " Sanzo? I'm hungry! can we eat now?" whined the golden eyed brunette earning him a painful whack on the head with the fan. " Ow ow oowww!" the poor kid cried as he sat on the floor clutching his head in pain.

Now the other brunette spoke. " now sanzo, you shouldn't be so hard on goku he's been holding back from asking the whole way here." said the brunette calmly , as if he had no fear of getting shot at or hit with the fan. "feh...Whatever.. have it your way Hakkai..." the priest muttered with a frown still on his face. " wow... they certainly are energetic..." Said rune sweat-dropping a little. " you're tellin' me..." groaned thatz, still recovering from the multiple whacks he had received from Earth minutes before.

Suddenly, Fire recognized the new people's sent, and quickly flew over to the green-eye brunette that was supposedly named Hakkai,and landed on his shoulder. "Hello, it's Fire, right?" asked Hakkai, Fire nodded. "I guess you're looking for jeep, am i right?" asked Hakkai looking at gojyo who had just earned another whack off the top of the head. Yea! How is he doin''? Fire asked with a concerned look on his face.

( A/N: the last time they met Fire was in his big form, and, unfortunately he knocked jeep and the rest of the ragtag group off the cliff in to a river, causing poor jeep (and Gojyo) to get a nasty cold.)

" Much better, in fact, stay here and I'll go get him." Hakkai said taking the little dragon off his shoulder and getting up. "Sanzo, I'll be right back, I need to go and get jeep." he said waiting for Sanzo's reply. " Hn... whatever... just bring the food back with you.. i'm starving..." muttered sanzo turning his back on hakkai. "hai." Hakkai answered as he turned and walked off. "soooo... how's it going?" asked rath as he walked up to the monk and shook the man's hand. "horrible, these two have been a pain in the ass for the past two towns." he cursed with disgust very apparent in his voice. "wow, that bad huh?" said Rath a little too sarcastically. "shut up." snapped the deranged priest. (gun clicks)

(do you wish to die?)(uh...Did i say 'deranged' 'cause i didn't mean to. i meant 'young' priest not deranged ok?) (you lived this time) (...)

Back to the story

1/2 an hour passes and the group is sitting under a willow tree and everyone was talking (well almost everyone...) and goku was playing with the dragons( while eating of coarse!) " well it was nice to see you guys again." said rath rather happily. " yes it was nice to see you and your friends again, though we didn't exactly except to see any one out here, not even you guys." Hakkai said with a little bit of concern in his gentle voice. " cheep!" piped the little white dragon nodding his head in agreement.

"Oi, Rune, do you have any idea where the exit to this forest is?" asked a slightly annoyed priest. "um... to tell the truth we've been trying to figure that out our selves for quite a while now... sorry." Rune confessed finally. yea. it's because of all this stupid freaky weather we've been seeing. added fire who was now eating a bean bun.

"Hey! that was mine!" yelled thatz. no it wasn't, it was right here! fire growled in protest. "you stupid dragon that's MY plate!" That's yelled back, grabbing the poor dragon around the neck. Not again... is what the sign said that had been knocked out of Fire's hand as that's tackled him. then, every one stopped what they were doing to watch the mad scramble between the earth dragon Knight and Fire, everyone sweat dropping slightly.
