Note: Hahaha! I'm spelling desert wrong. I'm sorry!( hehe. Good thing starcomets04 is here to notify me of my mistake (Thanks! D)

I'm not one of those who craves more viewers and wants lots and lots of reviews… but—please! REVIEW! I want to hear from you people! It makes me feel…… warm and fuzzy inside ;p hehe. I just want to know what you guys think of it that's all. Oh, and by the way, if there is some mistake with the tenses, let me now, I'm getting confused much with using the correct tenses. Anyways, here's chapter 4.

Sora However part II

You would think that four passengers is enough for one green jeep. I think so too! Now, eight passengers for one green jeep? Naaah.

It's too compressed—dense—we're all stacked up together! I can barely move my arms!

'I just hoope that they're having fun back there' I thought sarcastically.

"Are you alright, miss Landen?" the cool green-eyed dude beside me asked, he must've seen my face with the 'Move! I can't breathe!' expression on my face, and to add to that, I guess I was getting red being exposed in the sun for too long. 'Damn! No hood! Hakuryuu should be just a convertible!'

"Uh-huh" I managed to squeak out. Me and Shane are sitting in the front seat, between Hakkai and Sanzo. Good thing Shane was reading her book—which she found earlier and thanked the holy Gods for leading it to her.. she's weird, I know—and not in her talkative 'I'm hyper! And bored! Let's do something! Or I'll be annoying and whining!' mood. Cause you guys know how Sanzo could be.

'Now.. if only I twist my body side ways so I could see what's going on back there…--THERE!' I managed to look back in the back seat, where, you guessed it, Sora and Ann was seating between Gojyo and Goku.

'Glad to see they're having fun' the thoughts in my mind were beyond sarcastic.

They really were having fun.. well at least a pair of them are! Sora and Gojyo—eugh! I don't even want to look what part of Sora's back/behind were Gojyo's hand situated! 'Whoore!' I thought, and even saying it the Conan O'Brien way—'hures' . Now, Ann and Goku. A mischievous punk and a monkey. Nope, Goku's certainly not enjoying Ann's mischievous deeds—espescially when she's the one teasing him, making fun of him—"My, my! Goku! What a pretty gold headband you have!... Are you gay or just a crossdresser?" was just one of the things she have done to annoy poor Goku—she's also pinching his cheeks very hard, saying "Aww! YOU'RE SOO ADORABLE!" leaving Goku's cheeks to be very red, I don't know whether from Ann's pinching or because he's to annoyed or maybe because that's one of the few compliments he receives.

By that time I went back into a proper position, facing front. As I am having a really hard time breathing, I pushed Shane a bit. That resulted into a "Ow!" from Shane and a "Ch!" from a moves—literally—Sanzo.

I think back of what Sora said to us..

"I met these guys when I landed near the village. Ironically, when I opened my eyes I saw Japanese looking buildings and houses, and even some street vendor running and yelling 'Fresh fruits! Come now and you can get 10 apples for just 2 yen!' I didn't care much about fruits but I was hungry anyway. I bought apples, then I passed by some full length mirror, and noticed how horrible I looked, I looked like I've just been trampled by a hordes of animals! And then, I did got trampled! That Goku kid there—the one with the gold head gear—practically run me over shouting: 'FOOD! FOOD! FOOD!' And then his companion, Gojyo, saw how horrible I looked and brought me back to the hotel they were staying in. And that's how we met."

Of course, that was her story, I edited the 'like', 'oh my gosh', 'hottie' out of it.

But then, I didn't stopped myself to ask: "How did you convince Sanzo to let you ride in their jeep?" and she answered, in her normal Sora Kazuya way: "He said something about he needed me and my other companions on his journey to wherever! Whatever he said.. I don't care as long as I've got a ride in this…. Unusual crummy place!"

And that was it, I was quite afraid to ask Sanzo. 'Me? Ask Sanzo? In the heat of this sun? Nooo way!' my thoughts exactly.

We arrived at the next village, with—fortunately—only a few brawls from Gojyo and Goku, one or two brawling from Ann and Goku—Goku was the one who got hit by the harissen though—and Gojyo got hit by Sanzo's fan too because, well, we all could sense that Sora and Gojyo were doing a little bit more than flirting here.

Ugh.

'INN!' the mind shouted happily. I was all but gleaming brightly when we entered the inn, of course that just had to be popped when Ann poked me in the eye.

"Ow! What did you do that for?"

"I thought you have glitters on your eyes! They're shinning and.. starry starry ya know!" a very happy Ann answered.

While a very grumpy me, just stared at her, a vein throbbing in my head. 'But no matter! Inn! I must rest in your beds tonight! Yay!' I figured, letting my scowl turn into a smile, and the vein off my head.

"Sorry sir and ma'm, we're full." The receptionist just have to burst my happy bubble.

Nope, I am not crazy! I AM NOT! I'm just… tired.

"What! That can't be right! CHECK YOUR DATABASE ALL OVER AGAIN! I will not sleep in the ground again tonight! NAH-UH!" I bursted

"I'm really sorry ma'm!" the short blue haired lady receptionist sweat dropped, saying in her most kindest and sweetest voice.

'You're really enjoying this are you? ARE YOU!' I thought half to the receptionist, and half to whatever entity that is controlling our fate now.

I let out a war growl and leaned half of my body at the counter (reception desk/counter) and attempted to strangle that lady receptionist out of her wits. When, lucky, I was grabbed from the counter by Hakkai.

When the guys told me what happened nowadays, Hakkai was saying to the receptionist: "Forgive us mina-san! She just didn't took her medicine lately and she's sick" while I'm still red and growling, looking ready to kill her and gnaw her.

And that's how we exited that inn, me being dragged by my shirt collar in my back by Hakkai, and Ann laughing until her stomach hurts. Luckily Sanzo decided to let Hakkai check out the inn and not for himself. If Sanzo was the one I was with and was doing my little stunt back there, I doubt there won't be any bullets.

"So?" Sanzo asked Hakkai. "NOTHING!" I shouted out of aggravation. Hakkai sweat dropped as Sanzo turned to look at me, he was being indifferent and cold again—unpredictable also, I was scared. Gulp.

He turned to Hakkai, "Nothing?". And Hakkai replied, "Nothing. There might be some other inns here, let's check it out." all too calmly, while I'm being the baby, wanting to just sleep at an acceptable hotel and yet, can't find one that is available.

Spoke too soon.

"It seems like we may have to sleep outside after all Landen" Hakkai said all to pleasantly. Me, however, just "Hmph'ed!" and pouted, which caused Hakkai to chuckle.

'At least I'm not going to let Ann steal my blankie!' I thought, and wrestled my blankie off Ann's sleeping form.

She didn't even shuffle. I sighed hopelessly, and helped Hakkai set up the tent. I complained to him, while putting the tent up. "Why do they have to sleep while we're the one setting the tent up? UNFAIR!" I pouted and whinned some more. When Hakkai, said nothing and offered to set up the tent himself, I just said "Naah… I need to burn calories! And setting up tents is a good way! I just hope they got back and neck pains when they wake up! Hahahaha!" I admitted to him my sadistic wish. Hakkai, however, just laughed in return.

The tent is finally set up, 'At least it's not rough sand now, we have an actual tent!' I tried to think optimistic. "Shall we wake them to inform them that the tent is set up?" Hakkai asked, I grunted in response, knowing all too well Hakkai's attitude, he will wake them up. "Can I stop you from doing that if I say no?" I smiled weakly at him. I went inside the tent and collapsed happily inside it. "Move, this is my side of the tent" a flat toned voice beside me said, I looked up and saw.. Sanzo. Of course, I almost forgot about that all-too quiet monk just sitting in the corner.

"Oh.. sorry" I rolled over to another side. I laid into one side of the tent, "Ei Sanzo..", "Hn?", "What were you saying to Sora the other day about you needing us?" that is how me and Sanzo first communicated.

"They (the three floating heads) have talked to me the week before we found Sora. It appears that you four are essential to finding and protecting this one sutra." He explained to me shortly and direct-to-the-point.

"Thanks." I replied, rolling to my side of the tent and grabbing my blankie and Ms Sniffles.

'Wow… just one failed trip to India and now we're essentials! Wow…' my sentiments exactly.

But I still don't know how we got into this world.

Oh heck, I'll ask Hakkai tomorrow if he knows anything about this. But for now… I'll have to catch up to my Zzz's before the other ones get in this tent and make me 'almost not breathing' (like in the jeep) again.

HEY WHOORES! I love Conan O'Brien! p

Anyways, I got tired of typing, so maybe I'll add the next chapter later on.

Review my tootsies! D
