Genjyo Sanzo; the 31st Sanzo Hoshi priest had been traveling west with his companions – Cho Hakkai, Sha Gojyo, and Son Goku. All three of them were Yokai; a sort of… demon if you will. They traveled by means of a dragon who could transform into a car who happened to be named Jeep. On this quiet night, the gang was fast asleep, each in their own rooms. Well, all except Gojyo who has other things on his mind. You see, earlier that day as the four were wandering around the local village during their journey, Gojyo met a pretty attractive young woman.
He, like always with pretty women, went into his seductive mode. As the day went on, the two became very close. Now, with night fall, the two were in a compromising position; entwined in each other's bodies. Gojyo was finally scoring without interruption or surprise attacks. It was as if this woman was 'the one' he had been searching for his entire journey west. Her light moans and slightly arched body said it all. She was enjoying it.
As their romp in the bed sheets wound down, they tightly embraced each other and kissed deeply. The perfect moment came to a crashing halt. Startled, Gojyo jolted away from the woman as glass shards flew in front of him. Someone jumped through the shattered window.
A yokai! Now? Of all times? Gojyo thought as he clenched his teeth.
"So, you really are weak to red heads, huh? Kougaiji is going to be so pissed Yokari! You're supposed to be killing the enemy, not sleeping with them," the yokai said.
"What? You're-," Gojyo started to say but Yokari leapt from the bed.
She ripped her choker around her neck off, "You idiot!" Her ears became pointed. Her nails stretched longer in length and her teeth grew longer. "You talk way too much!" Taking a single hand, she grabbed the yokai's head and slammed it into the floor.
Gojyo sat on the bed; shocked. His room door flew open. There, in the doorway, stood Sanzo. Next to him was Goku. They entered the room slightly. Yokari, still mostly naked, slowly stood up.
"Wow Gojyo, I didn't think you'd sleep with a yokai," Sanzo smirked.
"Don't even start!" Gojyo shouted.
Goku stood confused, "What's going on here?"
Sanzo pointed his special gun at Yokari's head and cocked it, "Give me a good reason why I shouldn't shoot you."
"Wait Sanzo. I know a good reason," said Gojyo.
"Yeah? And what's that?" He asked.
Gojyo stared intently at Yokari, "Let's take her with us when we leave."
Goku gasped, "Whaaa-? Are you crazy Gojyo!? She was sent here to kill you!"
"Hear me out," he said and closed his eyes. "She's one of Kougaiji's assassins. That yokai she killed acted as if she means a lot to Kougaiji. If she's traveling with us, he'll surely come looking for her."
"So, you want to use her as bait to trap Kougaiji," Sanzo lowered his gun. "Whatever. Do what you want. But she's sitting in the back when we're in Jeep."
Sanzo turned and walked out of the room. Goku was still trying to comprehend what just happened. Yokari casually made her way over to the bed. Kneeling down, she picked up her choker and placed it back around her neck. Her ears receded back to that of a human's; as did her nails and her teeth. This choker was known as a yokai inhibitor. It suppresses a yokai's appearance and powers. Gojyo, Goku, and Hakkai all had their own as well. However, two of them were only half yokai and half human. Goku was the only full yokai of the four and Sanzo was the only human.
"You- you're weak to red heads? But you were sent to kill us?" Gojyo asked.
Yokari closed her eyes and sighed, "Yes, I was sent to first kill you. Then I was supposed to kill your friends… one by one."
Night turned to morning. Unable to sleep, Gojyo kept an eye on Yokari all night. They gathered their things and checked out of the inn. Yokari got stuck sitting on Gojyo's lap in the backseat with Goku in his usual spot. Of course, being that close to a hot red head made her hot and bothered. Gojyo couldn't resist messing with her at least a little bit. He held her close in his warm embrace to act as a sort of seat belt as they bumped along on the uneven road.
The group traveled along for several hours. Gojyo and Goku argued as usual. Sanzo threatened to kick them both out or at the very least, shoot one of them. Hakkai kept his cool and a smile on his face as he made it clear that Sanzo was not permitted to do either to both of them. It wasn't long before a sudden feeling made Jeep come to a rough stop, jolting the five passengers.
"You have something that belongs to me!" A loud, angered voice yelled.
The five jumped out of Jeep. Gojyo had his arm wrapped securely around Yokari's waist. A very mean looking red headed yokai stood before them. Sanzo, Hakkai, and Gojyo created a barrier in front of Yokari.
"You want her that badly? Then you have to go through us first Kougaiji!" Yelled Gojyo.
Kougaiji growled in anger, "Yokari! Don't tell me you decided to side with the enemy!"
"I- uh-," Yokari meekly tried to say. "N- no. Of course not Kougaiji-Sama."
"I honestly thought it would take much longer for him to find us," Hakkai said calmly.
"In any case, let's get this over with," said Sanzo.
Goku smiled eagerly, "I'm ready whenever you are!"
Kougaiji had no choice but to fight them in order to retrieve his beloved Yokari. Goku happily charged in without even a single thought or plan of action. He also went flying without a moment's hesitation from one attack out of Kougaiji…
Gojyo attacked next. It was no surprise Goku was beaten so easily since he liked to charge in head first with everything. Kougaiji had a bit of a harder time dealing with Gojyo though. He was more skilled in his methods of attack. Eventually though, he got past him.
As Kougaiji came close to Yokari, Hakkai was there in front of her. He used his burst of energy to create a shield and repelled Kougaiji. Sanzo took advantage of this and punched Kougaiji square in the face. Yokari watched, unable to move. She really didn't like fighting all that much.
"Kougaiji-Sama…," she said quietly.
Kougaiji quickly regained his composure, vanished, grabbed Yokari, and vanished with. They both appeared again, perched high up on a mountain side ledge. His arm around her waist completely, she was dangerously close to falling. Her feet were half on and half off of land and her body was leaning back towards the drop.
"I hear tell you slept with that taboo half blood red head. Do you not love me anymore?" Kougaiji stared her straight in the eyes as his face was inches from hers.
She shook her head, "That- that's not it at all. I just-,"
"You just what!?" He hissed. "Fell for his red hair and crimson eyes?"
Gojyo watched in anger, "Yokari!"
Kougaiji and Yokari once again vanished. All four gasped in surprise. Gojyo clenched his fists and grumbled. Goku groaned in utter defeat and disappointment. Sanzo just sighed and walked off. After a few moments, they helplessly went back to Jeep and reluctantly meandered along on their journey.
Back home with Kougaiji, Yokari, and the rest of the subordinates, Yokari was receiving a blessing and a curse of a punishment from Kougaiji for fraternizing with the enemy. She was in a very compromising position once more. Her beloved yokai had her bent over and making her rear side cheeks were a bright red from Kougaiji's own hands. His bare body laid upon hers as he cleansed her insides of the taboo red head who laid a claim to her before.
With each harsh thrust, Yokari moaned louder… and louder. It hurt so good as her body pushed forward against the bed sheets from Kougaiji's angered force of his hips against her upper thighs. Her power inhibitor had been removed before he started so her long nails ripped the sheets as she clenched them tighter as he got his fill of her. One last forceful thrust made Kougaiji explode inside of her. They both let out a very loud moan as he finished.
"That should cleanse you of that taboo filth you fell weak to," he told her. "Are you sorry for what you did?"
Yokari breathed heavily, "Yes, my beloved. I'm sorry."
"Good girl," Kougaiji gently brushed a bit of Yokari's deep purple hair away from her face.
Each day went by as usual. Almost three months had gone by. They came upon a village, stayed at an inn, were attacked by yokai, and then moved on. There was one village with an inn that had a beautiful waitress waiting on people; very drunk perverted people. A small group of rowdy perverts in particular decided to appropriate an opportunity to cop a feel at the waitress. She was obviously uncomfortable with their actions but had to maintain her status as a waitress.
What the-? Is… is he touching my butt? She thought and grimaced.
Suddenly, an ashtray whooshed across the bar and clonked the guy in the head. The waitress stood in shock and confusion. Where did it come from? She looked around as the other patrons barked out orders for her to fulfill. As she continued her job, sitting at a far table, were Gojyo, Sanzo, Goku, and Hakkai.
They, too had been calling for her attention to order. This beautiful waitress though, was another of Kougaiji's subordinates. She volunteered; insisted on taking care of the Sanzo gang for him on her own. Her master reluctantly allowed her to infiltrate their next stop and annihilate them. She made her way over to their table.
As they each read out what they wanted, Gojyo mentioned they needed an ashtray. The waitress looked around at all of the tables. Each one had an ashtray; except theirs. Their table is the only one missing an ashtray. How is that possible? She thought as she wrote down their order.
"I'll get your order right away," she bowed politely and walked off. All I have to do is put the poison in the food and serve it to them. Then, when they eat it, that will be the end of all of them.
It wasn't long before the food was ready. She placed each plate and bowl on the table.
"Hey! Why don't ya come back over here missy? I could use a nice helping of that succulent behind of yours!" The perverted man from earlier laughed.
"Yo! Perverted old man! Why don't you keep your hands to yourself? Or do you want another ashtray to the face?" Gojyo defended the young woman.
The man's face turned to anger, "So, you were the one who threw that!?"
The drunken pervert stood up from his seat. He angrily stomped over to Gojyo's table. Gojyo stood as well. The two engaged in a fist fight, destroying half of the bar. The table the group was sitting at got knocked over and all of the poisoned food spilled across the floor. The waitress gasped and felt utterly defeated after all the trouble she had gone through to make her plan work.
They really are unpredictable. Kougaiji-Sama was right… she thought miserably.
"Aaaah! My bar! Stop it! All of you! Can't you settle this in a different manner!?" The bar owner yelled.
"You're right! We'll settle this the only way possible," said the drunk.
"Yeah? What way is that?" Asked Gojyo.
The drunk slapped a bottle of alcohol on a table, "A drinking contest! Although, it looks like one of you is still a kid! And the other one is a goody priest who probably can't even hack enough to stand a chance!"
Sanzo, irritated, held up a gold credit card, "Bring us every alcohol you've got."
"Oh no. Here we go," Hakkai said.
"Alright! Four against four! I get to drink!" Goku said excitedly.
The eight of them all sat down; four on one side, and four on the other. A whole slew of alcohol stood before them on the table. Each person had a clean glass in front of them, waiting to be used. Gojyo poured a glass for himself. Then Sanzo, Hakkai, and Goku each picked a bottle and poured their selves a glass. After only a few drinks, Goku was the first one knocked out.
The perverted drunk what started the whole situation was the only one still conscious on his side of the table. The others were already knocked out. Gojyo was clearly drunk after his share and Sanzo was pretty loopy himself. The only one who wasn't drunk, was Hakkai.
"Looks like you can't hold your liquor after all!" The pervert laughed.
"Oh yeah?" Sanzo said, swaying from side to side in his seat. "You're the only one left on your side. You don't know Hakkai."
"Just give it up! Perhaps we need more alcohol over here," he said.
"Makai Ten…," Sanzo started but Hakkai covered his mouth with his hand.
"Okay, we'll have none of that. Don't mind him," he said and laughed lightly.
Just then, a sort of fog appeared, surrounding the entirety of the bar. Every patron and worker inside dropped to the floor unconscious. The only ones left standing were the waitress and Hakkai. The waitress drew closer.
"Uh-? Damn it. You were the one I really wanted to knock out the most," the waitress said.
"Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Asked Hakkai.
"My name is Yaone. I chose to come. You are the enemy of my master; Kougaiji… and so, I must kill you. I would prefer to not have civilians involved though," Yaone said.
The two engaged in a fight. Hakkai didn't want to really hurt Yaone. She didn't feel the same way. Hakkai flew across the bar and crashed into the front door. Yaone followed to continue the fight outside. Slowly, Goku started to open his eyes and regain consciousness. He woke up Gojyo and Sanzo.
Gojyo moaned lightly and caught the ass end of Hakkai and the door slam into the ground. Why's Hakkai fighting outside? He wondered.
"I didn't want to get anyone else involved here but, I guess I have no choice," Yaone said and held up a small object with what looked like a button. "The whole bar is rigged with explosives!" She clicked the button and braced herself.
Hakkai held up small sticks of dynamite and smiled lightly after nothing happened, "Oh… I saw these earlier and thought 'those look pretty dangerous' so I disarmed them."
Whaaaaa-!? No way! I knew these guys were unpredictable but… x.x Yaone thought. What do I do now? Kougaiji-Sama… I failed you. She started sobbing a little and held a knife near her throat, "If I can't succeed in my mission, then I shall die!"
Hakkai held a hand out, "Wait! Don't do that!"
"I live to serve my master! I'm useless to him if I can't do one simply mission!" Yaone cried.
Yaone and Hakkai stood opposite each other, "I must apologize. I fought pretty hard. Did- I hurt you at all?"
Hakkai reached out a hand to her, "Don't touch me!" She yelled and swatted his hand away.
"Hey! Don't do that!" Goku yelled to Yaone.
As Yaone was about to cut into her throat, a hand stopped the blade directly. A tall, red haired man stood before them. Sanzo, Hakkai, and Gojyo stared in surprise. KOUGAIJI! They all thought at once. Gojyo clenched his first and gritted his teeth. As much as he didn't like being used by his subordinate Yokari, he felt a bit sorry for her having to be around someone like Kougaiji who was bent on having him and his companions killed.
"I'm not here to fight anyone. I just came to retrieve my subordinate. So don't get the wrong idea," Kougaiji said blatantly as he wrapped his arm around Yaone.
Yaone gasped, "Kougaiji-Sama!? What about-?"
"Don't worry about her…," he interrupted.
Sanzo, Goku, Hakkai, and Gojyo stared at each other, "Does he mean-?"
"We're out of here Yaone," Kougaiji said and immediately left.
"Well, that didn't last long," Gojyo said. "Do you think he meant…?"
Sanzo closed his eyes and walked off, "She was sent to kill you Gojyo. Let it and her go."
They all stayed the night at the inn nearby in the village. Sanzo was out cold from having drank so much as was Goku. They were all sound asleep in fact. A shadow crept around each room.
