"He's poisoned?" asked Hakkai as Goku held Sanzo's unconscious form.
"Sanzo, wake up!" cried Goku. "San--"
"Son of a bitch!" cursed Gojyo. The he grabbed the desert yokai. "Don't you play dead on me, queenie! You fix this, or I fix you!" But his threats were in vain for the youkai was dead. "Shit. He already kicked it." Gojyo cursed.
"It was probably from the blood loss. Apparently those 'immortality' rumors were nothing more than hearsay." said Hakkai. Then he looked over at Goku, who was holding Sanzo tightly. He was quiet.
"Damn, Hakkai. This's a lot like that time with Rikudo. The kid's not gonna snap again, is he?" Gojyo asked him.
"Um, Goku..." Hakkai started.
"Hakkai. So?" said Goku suddenly. "I wanna help him. How can I help Sanzo?" he asked. Hakkai stared at him, then smiled.
"I'm sure there's still a way." he said. "It's all right, Goku. Sanzo's not one to die very easily."
"Whatever the case, we've gotta get outta here first." said Gojyo.
"Right." agreed Hakkai. "If we can return to the village in time, they may have an antidote. I'm sure they face their share of scorpions."
"But it's not like there's a door anywhere. How'd we even get in?" asked Goku as he looked around.
"And what's that--" Gojyo started. Just then everything around them shook violently. "Hey! You guys hear that one?"
"It sounds like somethin' crackin'!" exclaimed Goku as he held Sanzo closer.
"Uh-oh... Wait!" said Hakkai. "We're currently underground, correct?"
"Guess so." said Gojyo.
"And how did we escape the dungeon earlier?"
"We smashed the wall up good."
"And if a wall carrying the load of an underground lair is broken, what does physics dictate?"
"Uh... the roof'll break under the weight of the sand on top?"
They all froze.
"SHIT! Why didn't you say something earlier?!" yelled both Goku and Gojyo.
"I did try to stop you, if you recall."
"Screw an exit– Now we can't even leave this room!" yelled Gojyo.
"Everybody look for a vent or something!" yelled Hakkai. "Wait!" he suddenly said. Then he started digging in the chest behind them.
"What're you doing?!" yelled Gojyo.
"The sutra. We have to at least get the Maten Sutra back!" he said as he dug through the chest.
"Guys, we've gotta do somethin' fast!" yelled Goku. "The ceilin's fallin' in!"
"Gojyo hold this." said Hakkai as he handed Gojyo Sanzo's scripture. Then he put a barrier over them.
"Wh-what th--" gasped Goku as he looked up, still shielding Sanzo's fragile form.
"Hakkai!" yelled Gojyo.
"I'm afraid I c-can only shield us from the ceiling." Hakkai grunted as he struggled to hold the barrier. "Keep your feet moving or you'll be buried from below!"
"Quit worryin' about us gettin'– AGH!" grunted Goku as he gathered Sanzo's, soft, slim form in his arms. "What about you, Hakkai?!"
"Damn, it's falling fast!" cursed Gojyo. "Just give it up, Hakkai! Keep pushing against that pressure and your blood vessels'll pop!"
"Would you prefer that all four of us get buried alive?!" snapped Hakkai. The roof broke some more and more sand came flooding in.
"Shit, shit, shit!" cursed Gojyo. Goku just shield Sanzo as he held her closer. Just then a red wind appeared and blew all the sand away.
"Wha... It stopped fallin'." said Goku as he looked up.
"Ugh. Nobody's dead, are they?" asked Gojyo as he crawled out of the sand.
"No as such." coughed Hakkai. "But more importantly, what just happened?"
"So it was you." a voice suddenly said. They all looked up and saw...
"Kougaiji!" exclaimed Goku when he saw Kougaiji.
"What you four doing in a place like this?" he asked as he held Hakuryu.
"You saved us, Kougaiji?" asked Gojyo. "Um... Thanks."
"Save your gratitude. I just happened to be passing by." said Kougaiji.
"Jeep!" said Hakkai as Jeep flew into his arms. "You waited this whole time? For us... to..." Suddenly Hakkai fell forward.
"Hey!" exclaimed Gojyo as he caught him. "Ah, shit. Stupid stunts that nearly kill you don't impress us, moron!" Hakkai laughed a little as he tried to stand.
"S-sorry about that." he said.
"Crud, Hakkai. Quit making me look bad." Gojyo told him without looking at him.
"Sanzo needs help!" Goku cried suddenly. "Some youkai poisoned him, and he won't wake up!"
"Say that again?" asked Kougaiji as he stared at Sanzo.
"Is that medicine lady with you? Huh?!" Goku asked, looking frantic.
"If you mean Yaone, she stayed home." said Dokugaku as he too stared at Sanzo. "You four met the desert Youkai?"
"Yeah. But he's already dead." replied Gojyo. "If you guys came to fish out his sutra... Looks like you wasted your time. Everything he had is buried in that mess." Goku was quiet, then he picked Sanzo up bridle style.
"Oi, Goku. What're you trying to do?" asked Gojyo.
"'M gonna carry Sanzo." answered Goku as he stood with ease while holding Sanzo. She really was light.
"Don't be an idiot. You can't carry him that far in this heat, monkey." Gojyo told him.
"Then what else do I do?!" yelled Goku as he clutched Sanzo tighter and closer. "I know we're outta time! An' I know we can't use Jeep! Whatever I've gotta do... I won't let Sanzo die!" He started to walk when suddenly Kougaiji called,
"Wait a minute, Goku." Goku looked back at him. "We came here on a pair of dragons. They're not far from here. They'll get you to a town fast enough to save him, I'd bet." he told him. "I'll lend you those dragons... on one condition. You kill me first." Goku stared at him. "If I win, you give me Sanzo's Maten Sutra. If you win, the flying dragons are yours. I'm interested in settling this, Goku, so make your choice. This where it ends." he said as he removed his cloak. Goku continued to stare at him.
"Kougaiji..." he said. "Wh-what's wrong with you? You're all... weird." Suddenly Kougaiji started chanting a spell.
"Goku, look out!" yelled Hakkai.
"Huh?" said Goku. Just then Sanzo exploded around him and Sanzo. "Hey! K-Kougaiji, quit it!" Goku coughed as he shielded Sanzo.
"Stop hesitating." said Kou as he appeared behind them.
"But I--" Goku started as he looked up at him.
"What part of this don't you understand?" Kougaiji asked coldly. "I'm not your friend, dimwit. I'm your enemy." Just then he suddenly kneed Goku in the chin and sent him flying back away from Sanzo, who was slumped on the ground.
"Hunh. If you don't have the guts... Then I'll just take the sutra and go." said Kougaiji as he walked towards Sanzo. As he did he stared at her face.
'Could it be...?' he thought as he thought of Izumi. 'Could he be... Izumi?'
"NO! DON'T TOUCH SANZO!" Goku yelled. He jumped in front of Kougaiji, then flipped over him and when Kougaiji turned, he punched him away from Sanzo.
"I won't let--" he started.
"I've got it, Goku." said Hakkai as he shifted Sanzo on to his lap. "Leave Sanzo to me. I'm afraid you have to fight. Kougaiji's serious about his offer. I can sense his burden... There must be something very important he needs to fight for. I'm sure you can understand that. He's not the only one with something to lose."
In the background Gojyo and Dokugakuji fought as Goku stared intently at Sanzo. She was very pale and wasn't moving at all. Even her breath was slowing. He clutched his fist.
"...Hey, Hakkai." he said.
"Yes?"
"Will ya do whatever it takes to stop me?" Hakkai stared at him.
"What? You're not thinking of--" he started.
"I know I can't kill him th' way I am now. But I can't lose." Goku said as he started to remove his limiter. "I'm countin' on you, 'kay?" Then he began to scream as he began to change.
'He took me outta the darkness... an' gave me a world way brighter than th' sun.' he thought. 'Why can I remember it so clearly? I know this feelin'. I've known it for a long, long time. An' I don't wanna lose that.'
Kougaiji stared at Goku with shock all over his face.
"What the hell? Did he just..." he breathed as demon Goku smirked at him. "That's Son Goku?"
(Okay, I'm being Lazy again, so I'm skipping to the part when Sanzo wakes up.)
Demon Goku was about to deliver the final blow to Hakkai, when suddenly a shot was heard. Goku slowly turned to meet the cold violet gaze of Sanzo. He gun was aimed at him and her eyes were narrowed.
"Stop getting worked up." she said in a low, cold voice. "Stupid ape." Goku just stared at her, his eyes narrowed as well with anger and... sadness.
"Sanzo?!" exclaimed Hakkai in surprise as he stared.
'It can't be. There's no way he could stand up in his condition! And the more he moves, the faster the poison will circulate!' he thought.
"Well, come on." said Sanzo coldly. When Goku didn't move. "If you want me dead... Now's your goddamn chance." Goku still didn't move. Hakkai and Dokugaku stared at them. "Come on. Kill me... If you can." she taunted. Her gun and arm were as steady as her cold gaze.
"Sanzo!" yelled Hakkai as she clicked her gun.
"Bring it." she challenged Goku. Goku dashed forward towards her. Then... Sanzo threw her gun over her shoulder and kneed Goku in the gut, making him cough up blood as he fell back. "Too bad." she sneered. "I don't have any bullets to waste on you. You should consider yourself lucky, boy." Goku glared at her, then charged at her again. She barely managed to dodged as he tried to punch her, unfortunately she couldn't dodge his kick and was kicked right in the face. Goku was about to hit her, when suddenly Sanzo seemed to be surrounded by a golden glow as her hair flared around her face. She opened her eyes that were gleaming like a gods'. Goku stared at her. Just the Maten scripture enveloped him, and Sanzo covered his head with her palm. Then she chanted something and Goku's limiter was back. He turned back to normal and fell into Sanzo's arms, asleep. "Stupid... Brat." she breathed as she fainted with Goku on top of her.
"Sanzo? Goku!" yelled Hakkai.
"Kou! Kou, wake up!" yelled Dokugaku from behind him. But Kou was wounded and wouldn't wake up. "Dammit!" he cursed as he slung Kou over his shoulder. "Hey. As much as I hate saying this, we're retreating for now. Everyone needs to regroup. I know telling you this won't help any... But this was more mutual suicide than a fight. I know our side started things. And a loss is a loss. But despite all that... I can't forgive you for this." Then he walked away. Hakkai stared after them.
"No. I don't suppose you could." he said.
//Three days Later//
//Dream//
"You're all the same in the end." Sanzo remembered the desert Youkai saying."What's so great about a Sanzo Priest?! There's no power in stupid humans reading sutras!"
Maybe... not.
"Shit, man! Torture? This isn't like you!" she remembered Gojyo saying.
Then what is like me?
"Hit me with th' fan and call me stupid monkey. Okay? That's what Sanzo's like." she remembered Goku saying.
"Strong... Be strong, Genjyo Sanzo." she remembered her master saying.
//End dream//
Sanzo opened her hand and clenched it.
"Hn. I'm not strong." she said, using her male voice in instinct.
"I do believe you're right." said a voice suddenly. Sanzo turned her head and saw Hakkai. "But at least you're not weak. Wouldn't you agree?" he continued. "I'm here to inquire about your condition now that you're awake."
"...I feel like shit." grunted Sanzo. She was wearing a light blue shirt and jeans.
"Well, you've been in a coma for three days. The doctor we met here said that most people with your wounds would be in a coma for years, but for some odd reason she said that since it was you, you would only be asleep for 3 days. I suppose using cuss words immediately is sigh enough that you're alright. Poor Gojyo. He's just lost a lot of money." Hakkai said as he opened the curtains.
"It's been three days?" Sanzo asked.
"You moved excessively after a lethal dose of poison. Waking up in three days is a miracle. Had things taken much longer, you wouldn't be awake at all." said Hakkai. "We're very lucky we made it back to the village. That boy from before found us a bit a ways from here. We were well on our way to becoming menacing desert skeletons."
"What happened to Kougaiji?" Sanzo asked.
"Dokugaku-san carried him back. I'm afraid he's rather upset with us now. Not that I don't understand how he feels." answered Hakkai. Then Sanzo noticed something. Goku wasn't there.
"If you're wondering about Goku, he's in the other room with Gojyo." said Hakkai. "Yes? Or am I wrong." Sanzo turned over.
"...Hell if I care about that dimwit." she said.
"I see. And I seem to recall something you told me earlier." said Hakkai. "Free of all, bound by nothing, you live your life simply as it is." Sanzo was quiet, then without looking at him, she said,
"...I guess I'm the dimwit."
"Having realized the truth, please cooperate a bit. You'll be a nuisance otherwise." said Hakkai cheerfully. Sanzo glared at him.
"Your personality's gone down the tubes." she said.
"No... I'm sorry. You're a little bit right." said Hakkai sadly. "Gojyo and I couldn't do a thing. When Goku lost control as he did... I remember being terrified by his overwhelming power. Back there. I was the one he asked to stop him, you know. I failed in that, And I admit I'm angry about it. Not only that... But my failure resulted in his pain. That makes me even angrier with myself." Sanzo just sighed irritably.
"Then don't let it happen again." she said. "Next time that happens attack him with all you've got. And if you feel hesitant, then think about it this way... Would you like to live like that?" she sat up. "When a person goes into battle, they're willing to risk everything. To lose everything. When I fight I'm willing to lose everything. That's why I didn't hesitate when I fought Goku. If you can't kill him, then get the heck out of my way and let me handle it." she said as she laid back down. "You said a doctor was here, right? Send her in."
"Huh? How did you know she was still here and that she was a she?" asked Hakkai.
"Lucky guess. Now send her in. Now." said Sanzo. Hakkai chuckled as he stood.
"Alright." he said as he left the room.
//Meanwhile//
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" yelled Gojyo as Goku wrapped him. "That hurts, dickwad! Wrap with goddamn care!"
"This is nothin'! Deal with it! Saki should be doing this instead of me!" said Goku as he wrapped Gojyo.
"You're already in debt to me, don't push it boys." said Tsuki, or to Goku, Saki as she read the paper. Today she was disguised as a woman with long white hair and blue eyes.
"Good point... Then Hakkai should do it." said Goku.
"Hell no– the monkey makes the wounds, the monkey fixes the wounds!" yelled Gojyo.
"Aw, c'mon. I didn't hurt you that--" Goku started.
"Three ribs! You broke three ribs! That's a big frickin' deal!" yelled Gojyo.
"I said I'm sorry."
"Bah! I want you to think about what you did." said Gojyo as he rubbed his head. "First you go on a rampage, then you sleep while the rest of us're hurt."
"And now you're 300 dollars in debt." added Tsuki as she flipped a page.
"What?! Are you trying to pull one over our eyes?!" yelled Gojyo.
"Maybe."
"Grr...!"
"...I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry." said Goku looking like he was going to cry. Gojyo was quiet, then slung a arm over his shoulder.
"Moron. Ease up, okay?" he said. "What you did wasn't wrong. Remember that. It was the only way for us to beat Kougaiji. And hey, it turned out all right. Right?"
"Uh...mm. I still don't remember it. Or I don't remember things, anyway." said Goku as he looked at his hands. "But I remember my hands. I was really tryin' to kill. An' I wasn't just after Kougaiji, ether. I was gonna kill you. An' Hakkai... An'... Even Sanzo. That's why I... I..." Just then Gojyo brought his heel down on Goku's head.
"What th' hell, Gojyo?!"
"Quit underestimating us, you little snot. Do you really think we suck so hard that you could kill us?" Gojyo asked, eyes narrowed. "Rule number one. Cut your disgusting little apology for killing me. Open your eyes. Do I look dead to you? You couldn't kill me when you tried. Serves you right." he said as he stuck out his tongue. "'Sides, I'm already planning on dying during sex. I'd never let some as stupid as you kill me."
"Trust me, if they were dead I'd know." said Tsuki as she put her paper down. "And I saw you in the desert when you, how can put this nicely? Went crazy. You didn't exactly look that insane. It looked to me... Like you were punishing them for touching your property. And enjoyed reminding them."
"Punishing?" repeated Goku as he blinked. Tsuki nodded.
"Yep. Your demon form must be very possessive. Anyway, when you were fighting Sanzo, it was more of, um, payback. Maybe your other side is paying Sanzo back for some emotional pain. Has Sanzo ever done something to cause that type of pain?" she asked.
"Nothing to make me want to kill him!"
"Oh, really now? Well, if it's nothing like that, then he must have been an idiot and did something that really frighten ya."
"Like what?" asked Gojyo.
"You tell me. Goku, when was the time you were most scared?" Tsuki asked as she looked into Goku's eyes. For some reason... Goku felt like he could trust her.
"...Th' time with Rikudo. He hurt Sanzo really, really bad. But he was tryin' to kill me. Sanzo... took th' blow instead." he told her.
"Ah. Now I get it. Sanzo sacrificed himself for you, and now you're angry at him for it." she said.
"Huh? But--"
"It's okay, to be angry, Goku. When a person sacrifices himself for another, he should know the scars it leaves on the person. You have every right to be angry. So go ahead. Get angry, and teach Sanzo a lesson. That way he'll slowly become stronger." Tsuki said, her eyes slanted.
"Huh?" said Goku. Tsuki smiled.
"You must really like Sanzo, Go-chan! I hope you two will be very happy together." she teased.
"It's not like that!!" yelled Goku as he turned red.
"Hey, your blushing, monkey! You must really like him. I didn't know you were a homo." teased Gojyo.
"I AM NOT!! I DO NOT LIKE SANZO!!" Goku yelled loudly, redder than Gojyo's hair.
"Oh? Then why are you blushing?" asked Gojyo.
"You know, the louder you deny it, the more true it must be." teased Tsuki.
"It is not!!"
"Then why are you yelling? And for someone who isn't in love with Sanzo, you're quite red."
"Cut it out!"
"Oh, boy." said Hakkai as he entered the room. "Please, we can hear your noise through the walls. Sanzo's awake by the way."
"Yeah?" said Gojyo.
"Yes. He wants to see you, Miss Saki." said Hakkai to Tsuki.
"Ah! He's probably wondering about the heart transplant I did on him!" Tsuki said as she stood.
"WHAT!" yelled Gokui and Gojyo.
"Kidding! Or not." Tsuki chuckled as she entered Sanzo's room, shutting the door behind her. She smiled at Sanzo.
"Hey, goldie. Glad to see you're still alive." she said. "Thank to you, I've won ten bucks."
"When did you get here?" Sanzo asked.
"3 days ago. I met you guess while you were driving. But I found you guess when Goku went coo-coo."
"And you didn't want to help?" Sanzo frowned.
"Nope. Sorry, but by divine law I cannot get directly involved. With fights I mean. Besides, seeing me would have made him madder." replied Tsuki as she sat down on a stool. "Oh, and not to worry... None of the others know you're a girl yet. I wrapped you and everything and covered you up before they noticed. Although with the way Goku was holding you he really should have noticed. Heh. They're all such morons!" Sanzo was quiet as she covered her eyes with her arm.
"...This is the second time during this journey I've been put in a bed like this. I'm pathetic." she said.
"Yes you are." said Tsuki. "Oh, and now you owe me 300 bucks for taking care of you and your boys."
"What?! You're shitting me!" pouted Sanzo.
"Yes I am. We'll find other ways you can pay me back." smiled Tsuki. Sanzo was quiet again, then she said,
"Why? Why did I say that?"
"You mean the 'Then what is like me?' thing? Probably because you really wanted to know." answered Tsuki.
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"You were thrown in a river at birth, right? Maybe your confused about yourself. Think about it, you have no clue about your heritage or where your from and you're starting to wonder if you're even human because growing up you were called a demon, and now you might be starting to believe them." Tsuki explained. "I mean, it's not like you have anything else to fall back on."
"You're sprouting nonsense again." said Sanzo as she glared at her.
"Am I? Can you honestly say you've never wondered why you were thrown in a river to drown when you were born? Can you look me in the eye and tell me you've never asked yourself, 'Who am I?' 'What am I?' Can you tell me you've never asked yourself that?" Sanzo was quiet. Tsuki smirked. "Ha! I win. You're confused about who you are, San-chan. You're living a lie everyday and now you're forgetting who you are. Don't worry, in your situation, it's natural."
"I am not! I know exactly who I am." Sanzo scoffed.
"Then who are you? Are you Kouryuu of the River flow, the little 'boy' who Kyoumyou Sanzo found, or are you Priest Genjyo Sanzo of China... Thirty First Successor of the Seiten and Maten sutras?" Tsuki asked with a raised eye brow. Sanzo wanted to reply, but couldn't. Tsuki sighed. "San-chan, those are just names! Not who you are! You're lying so much everyday, it's become a bad habit! I bet you don't even realize it when you lie anymore."
"I do not lie that much."
"See? You're doing it now. When will it end? Name one moment you haven't lied."
"I didn't lie when I said I hated you."
"Ouch! Okay, then... If you hate me so much then why is it you trust me so much?"
"I have no choice. I don't know anything about being a woman. I need to know what's happening to my body, so I have to trust you. For now." said Sanzo as she turned over.
"Nice cover. You're really good at this lying."
"I'm not lying!"
"Yes you are! Everything you do and say is a lie. Look, if you want to get off this bad habit of yours, you're going to have to come clean and tell the truth." said Tsuki as she stood.
"Like hell that'll ever happen." growled Sanzo.
"That's fine with me. Ether way, I have fun. But you know eventually, you'll become so tangled up in your lies that you can't run anymore. But look at it this way, at least you have two real friends." said Tsuki.
"And who are they?" asked Sanzo.
"Me... And that gun." said Tsuki as she nodded to the gun on Sanzo's table. Then she left. Sanzo stared at the gun as growled to herself.
"Ah, fuck. She's right, dammit. Hell help me." she said.
//Meanwhile//
"Is Sanzo okay?" asked Goku as he looked up at Tsuki with big eyes.
"He'll live. I told him to take it easy." she answered. "So if you want to run, run now."
"Way ahead of ya!" said Goku as he tried to run.
"Not so fast, Monkey." said Gojyo as he grabbed the back of Goku's shirt.
"Lemme go!" Goku yelled as he tried to run. "Sanzo's gonna be really, really, pissed at me! I-I can't just go see 'im!"
"This from the guy who was worried twice as bad as us." said Gojyo.
"Come now, Goku. Not even Sanzo's that cold hearted. I think." said Hakkai.
"But!" started Goku.
"Or would you rather leave things the way they are? Hm?" asked Hakkai. Tsuki sighed.
"Sanzo might be mad, but hey. You'll never know unless you go ask him." she said. "But just in case he's really made, I'm outta here! Later!" Then she ran out.
"Hey where 're ya--" Goku started. Just then the door was slammed open. There stood Sanzo, looking at Goku emotionlessly.
"Sa-Sanzo!" stuttered Goku as he turned.
"...Like Master coming home to his pet." scoffed Gojyo.
"And After I told him to cooperate." said Hakkai, arms folded. Sanzo rubbed her fingers together, looking bored.
"...Goku." she said.
"Huh? Uh, what?" asked Goku as he looked up at her.
"I'm thirsty. Get me a beer." she told him.
"Wha?! I mean... sure." said Goku. He went to the small fridge and got a beer can. He didn't look at her as he held it out. "Here." he said. Sanzo reached for the beer, but instead she ruffled his hair. Goku looked up at her in shock.
"You... YOU ARE A STUPID MONKEY!" she yelled as she suddenly hit him with her fan.
"OWW!" cried Goku.
"How long are you going to hang your head like an idiot? I keep telling you not to jump into things without thinking!" she yelled.
"Hakkai!" whined Goku. "Ya said he wasn't cold-hearted!"
"I also said, 'I think'." reminded Hakkai.
"Feh." said Sanzo as she sat down and pulled out her cigarettes. Goku sat in a chair next to her, then began to laugh. "And what exactly is so funny?" Sanzo asked as she began to read the paper.
"'m not... Laughin'." chuckled Goku.
"You truly make me ill." said Sanzo. Hakkai chuckled himself.
"It seems that the gates of heaven have been smashed." he said.
"Yeah, yeah. Sanzo's just a poser. Our mighty Priest is really very shy." said Gojyo as he took his hair out of a ponytail. Just then two bullet holes appeared very close to his head.
"WHOA! That was close you damn sadist! Some day you're really gonna to hit me!"
"Hi! Sorry to interrupt. I thought you could use more bandages for--" said the little boy as he entered. He trailed off as the others began to fight.
"Live honorably, and the bullets will miss." said Sanzo.
"You're one to talk, you dirty little priest! And the monkey's in my way!" yelled Gojyo.
"Thank you, I'll take those." Hakkai said to the boy as the other three began to fight.
"They seem to be up and about." said the boy with a sweat drop.
"Yes. Do excuse them. There's no need to worry." said Hakkai with a smile. "Everyone's finally all right."
