Chapter 2

Disclaimer: don't own it…

Sanzo:

I was running down the hall as fast as my feet could carry me, still pissed at Gojyo and Hakkai for making me late. I knew where the classroom I was heading to was so I moved as fast as I could. Then, when I turned a corner…

BAM!

I ran right into some guy running in the opposite direction. We fell down all over the floor, limbs tangled and everything. My eyes had closed during the fall and when I opened them, the guy I ran into was right on top of me, straddling my hips and his face buried in my chest.

"Dammit, get off me bastard!" I shouted at him, pushing him off of me.

"Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going and…"

While he was apologizing, I stood up and brushed myself off. He had stopped speaking and was just staring at me like a dog stares at a bone.

"What the hell are you looking at?" I said, annoyed.

"Oh…uh…nothing" he said, breaking his gaze from me and standing up.

I asked him what class he was hurrying to. When he said Mrs. Takaya, I almost cringed. The little brat was in the same class as I was. I told him he was running the wrong way and pointed to the door where he should be going to. I began to walk away, leaving him to pick up his books and crap. After he picked everything up, he ran up to my side.

"So, uh…what's your name?"

"Why should you care what my name is?" I asked coldly, not wanting to get into any kind of conversation with this kid.

"I'm new here and don't know anyone, that's why. Geez, what's your problem?" he said in an angry sort of tone.

"Ch…" was the only reply I gave him.

By now we had reached the classroom door. It had been at least 7 minutes since the tardy bell rang. I went in and saw that there were only two seats left at a table in the back. 'Great,' I thought, 'now I guess I have to sit next to this annoying little brat.'

"You two are late" Mrs. Takaya said in a pissed sort of way. "I need you both to sign a tardy slip."

Sighing, I went back over to the door where a table had a clipboard sitting on it with a bunch of little slips of paper titled "Tardy Slips" clipped to it. I picked one, signed my name, and headed to the teachers desk. She read my name, checked my name on the roll, and told me to go sit down. The other guy did the same thing. I took my seat, put my chin in my hand, and got ready for a long and boring first class. I saw the guy I ran into sit next to me, and I heard all the girls whispering about "how cute he was" and giggling to no end. Mrs. Takaya stood up and began her lecture on the class rules and the proper supplies and all the other shit teachers spend the entire first week of school talking about. I got out a piece of paper and decided to make a "Things I Can't Stand" list, starting off with the things I can't stand about Gojyo and Hakkai. I was in the middle of writing about Gojyo's two strands of hair that make him look like a roach when a note was thrown over my paper by the guy next to me. I unfolded it and read:

What's your name!

'Annoying and persistent' I thought to myself. The only way I was going to get him off my back about it was to just give in and hope he would be satisfied and leave me the hell alone. I wrote my name, crumpled it up threw it on the floor and watched him lean down and pick it up. He read the name and looked as if he was letting it sink in. Then he picked up his pencil once more.

Goku:

I picked up the crumpled piece of paper and read what was written. 'Sanzo…' I thought, 'Cool name!' I decided to tell him my name as well. Maybe we could become friends, even if he was kind of mean to me earlier! He'd be my first friend at my new school! I wrote:

My name's Goku!

Instead of balling the note up like Sanzo had, I folded it neatly. I looked up at Mrs. Takaya, seeing that she was still droning on about rules and all that other crap, and then tossed the note on top of the paper that Sanzo was writing on. I heard him make a sound like "Tch…" or something like that and then he unfolded my note. He read it and tossed it in the trash can near the table-desk thing we were sitting at. He then looked my way I think to scowl at me but stopped and stared. Feeling awkward at his pretty eyes staring me down like that, I looked away. Out of the corner of my eye a moment later I saw him look away as well. 'Oookay…' I thought.

Sanzo:

So the damn kid's name was Goku. Tch…I don't recall asking him for his name. I threw away the note and looked at Goku to show him my 'you're-annoying-the-hell-outta-me' scowl when I noticed something…

…he had golden eyes, great big golden eyes. I had never seen anyone with eyes like that but I've heard stories…ancient stories about how people with golden eyes used to be feared because, supposedly, they were said to have immense power and strength and be some kind of monster or something. Then I thought 'Pshh…that kid? Like hell.'

The bell rang and everyone got up, sighing in relief that first period was over. I went out the door quickly so that Goku wouldn't come up and annoy and piss me off again. He probably thinks we'll become friends or something.

Yeah right…like hell I'll ever be anything close to a friend to that monkey.

A/N: Meh…I don't think this chapter was as good. I don't even know if this story will turn out to be any good at all but the show must go on!...err…story…whatever!
