"You're confused about who you are, San-chan. You're living a lie everyday and now you're forgetting 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. But you know eventually, you'll become so tangled up in your lies that you can't run anymore."

"Oi! You jerk!" Goku yelled a few days later. After the Desert incident the Sanzo party continued their journey. None of the boys were the wiser of Sanzo's secret, but she was having her period again, so it was a little difficult. Anyway, right now they were at a bar eating."Ya ate my flippin' Gyouza!"
"Did not. Did your eyes go stupid, too? Poor, brainless ape." said Gojyo.
"Wha? Kappa!" yelled Goku as he stood.
"And what do you mean 'yours'?! The stuff on the table's communal." continued Gojyo with a smirk.
"That wasn't a regular Gyouza– That was th' last Gyouza!" yelled Goku, almost crying. "An' I put it on my stupid plate!"
"Whoever gets it in their mouth first wins." smirked Gojyo as he smoked a cigarette. "Don't like the rule, start writing your name on shit."
"So ya did eat it! Yaargh! We're goin' outside!" yelled Goku.
"You want a piece of this? Get ready to beg and cry!" Gojyo yelled back. Then Sanzo began shooting at them.
"What part of 'execution for noise' don't you understand?!" yelled Sanzo, who annoyed beyond hell.
"Mommy!" cried Gojyo as he ducked out of the way.
"Stop playing around and eat!" she snapped as she put her gun away. "You're wasting time."
"But Gojyo--" whined Goku.
"But this monkey--" whined Gojyo.
"Death!" Interrupted Sanzo. She was very irritable since her talk with Tsuki in the desert.
'What I hate most about her is that she's always right! She knows me better than I know myself. It's so annoying! God I hate her. And yet...' she thought as Hakkai apologized to the other customers. 'She has been... entertaining. But I'm still furious at her for making me wear a dress!' Then to the others she growled,
"We're leaving. Move it!"
"But there're spring rolls left--" whined Goku as Hakkai dragged him after Sanzo.
"And he'll slaughter you if you don't hurry." Hakai told him.
"My beeeer." whine Gojyo as Hakkai dragged him out as well.
"Faster!" growled Sanzo.
"Do we need anything before leaving town, Sanzo?" Hakkai asked her.
"Yeah, we're out of cigarettes." she responded.
"My Hakumaki!"
"My beeer!"
"SHUT IT!"
//Meanwhile in the sky//
Tsuki sat in the library of the flying city he and Sanzo had found in chapter 13. He got fed up with walking and decided to follow Sanzo by using the flying city. So for he was getting the hang of the city. He only crashed into two cities so far.
Today he was a boy with short black hair and green eyes. Right now he was in the library reading a old spell book.
"Hey, this looks interesting. Let's see... Galadriel Anwamane Altariel Mithrandir. Hm... I think that means 'Spell of no Rage'. I think. Sigh! Ama-chan always was better at this kinda stuff. But this spell would be perfect for Sanzo! She really needs to loosen up! Let's see, how does it go?" he said as he began to recite the spell, not knowing the trouble it would cause.
//Meanwhile back on the ground//
"Aw, man. I'm bored otta my brain." groaned Goku as he hung his head over the back of the jeep.
"You'll fall, monkey." said Gojyo, who was bored as well.
"But sittin' up hurts my back." moaned Goku.
"Well, we haven't been attacked by assassins in days." said Hakkai. "At least it's rather peaceful."
"And just when I was getting used to the company. I think I'm going to miss those guys." sighed Gojyo dramatically. "A maiden's heart is so complex."
"Don't." growled Sanzo.
'And not really.' she silently added.
"Um, hey." said Goku suddenly. "Whaddya think happened to Kougaiji? Ya think he's still alive?" Sanzo thought about Kougaiji and the time they spent together that one time when she was disguised as Izumi.
"Worrying about your enemies is a waste of time." she said emotionlessly.
"Wha? But I--" Goku started.
"Goku." interrupted Hakkai. "Kougaiji made the conscious choice to fight you. There's no need for you to worry."
"Yeah. He's not that easy to kill, ether. The guys got the persistence of a cockroach." said Gojyo.
"And if a member of the same species says so, it must be true." said Sanzo. Gojyo glared at her.
"...Oi." he said. Goku laughed a little.
"Hee. I think so too." he said.
Just then Sanzo felt as if something was wrapping around her heart. Squeezing it like a orange.
'What the hell?!' she thought as she began gasping for breath.
"Sanzo?" said Goku, worriedly as she suddenly clutched her chest. "Sanzo, what's wrong?"
"It's... Nothing." she gasped. But the pain suddenly got worse and she began to cough.
"Hey, man are you okay?" asked Gojyo, who now was a little concerned.
"I'm fine." said Sanzo, but her chest tightened again harder.
"Are you sure?" asked Hakkai in his motherly tone.
"I told you I'm fine!" Sanzo managed to yelled. Just then blood began to drip down her face from her forehead.
"Sanzo! You're bleeding!" Goku yelled worriedly.
"No... Duh..." gasped Sanzo as she touched her forehead. Her whole palm was smeared with blood. Hakkai had pulled over by now and was looking at Sanzo's forehead.
"Damn. What the hell happened? You were fine two minutes ago." asked Gojyo.
"Hell if I know." said Sanzo.
"That's strange." said Hakkai, frowning as he tried to heal Sanzo's forehead. "My chi isn't having any effect."
"What?!" exclaimed Goku.
"Calm down, monkey. It's not too serious. I can bandage it myself. Just hand me the first aid kit." said Sanzo. Her vision was a little fuzzy from the blood.
"We have a first aid kit?" asked Gojyo. If her head wasn't bleeding so bad, Sanzo would have hit him. Hard.
"Sanzo, did you injure yourself or something? You're bleeding pretty bad." asked Hakkai in his motherly tone.
"Not that I know of." said Sanzo as her chest loosened. "Now where's the first aid kit?"
"Here, I'll bandage your head up for you." Hakkai said with his usual smile as he pulled out a first aid kit.
"I can bandage myself!" Sanzo snapped as she snatched the bandages away from him. She hated it when others pitied her. Pity was for the weak, and Genjyo Sanzo was not weak.
"So stubborn!" said Hakkai with a sweat drop as he surrendered the fist aid kit.
"Are you sure you don't need help, Sanzo? Your head looks really bad..." said Goku.
"I don't want your help! Now just mind your own damn business." Sanzo snapped as she took out some bandages. Goku looked like Sanzo had just smacked his across the face. Sanzo softened a little, seeing this. "Look, I'm fine. It just looks worse than it actually is." she said. Just then her chest gave a painful stab and she clutched it.
"Sanzo!" Goku yelled as blood seeped through her robes. But before they could do anything, Sanzo suddenly scurried out of the Jeep and started to run. She didn't know what was happening, but she did know this; Hakkai would want to see her chest to see what was wrong, and if he opened her robes, he would see her breasts and then everything she had worked so hard for would be ruined!
"Sanzo!?" Goku yelled after her, but she kept running.
Just then someone grabbed her from behind and lifted her into the air.
"Good thing I was in the neighborhood." whispered Tsuki in her ear.
"Tsuki?" she breathed. Tsuki was holding her bridle style, but there was something else.
He had long black wings and he was flying!
"Ask later, right now, we gotta scoot." said Tsuki. He chanted a spell and suddenly a exact clone of Sanzo appeared below them. Then he flew up higher into the sky just as the others ran to the clone.
"There you are, Sanzo! Why did you run away like that?" asked Goku. The clone didn't answer. Suddenly the clone fainted.
"Hey, Sanzo!" yelled Gojyo as he caught it.
"Sanzo!" yelled Goku.
//Meanwhile//
"You mean after all the hell this place put us through, you're living in it?" Sanzo asked with a flinch as Tsuki wrapped her wounds.
"Well, it beats walking! You have a jeep! I only had my legs. It wasn't fair, especially when walking through a desert, so I decided to follow you, using the city. And it's so high, no one ever sees it, and if they do, they think it's a UFO. So it's cool." said Tsuki as he finished wrapping her. "And it's a little better now that I've gotten rid of the traps and the Kraken." Sanzo sighed.
"Only you would live in a place like this. By the way, when did you get wings?" she asked.
"Oh, I've always had 'em. But you see, I'm kinda suppose to be cursed so it really hurts when I summon them. But this is reeeeeeeally important." replied Tsuki.
"Oh?" asked Sanzo with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah..." said Tsuki with a sweat drop as he rubbed his head. "It seemed I mixed up the elvish word for rage and lies mixed up, so I accidently cast a 'Spell of No Lies' on you instead of a 'Spell of no Rage' like I intended too."
"YOU DID WHAT?!" yelled Sanzo as she started to strangle Tsuki. "I'll kill you!"
"Now, now! I can fix this! I really can! I just need to re-read the book and find the counter spell. And for you to stop strangling me." said Tsuki as Sanzo strangled him. "In the mean time, you can't tell any lies or the spell with activate and cause your body harm."
"What?!" exclaimed Sanzo as she dropped him. "What the hell am I suppose to do? You said it yourself! My whole life is a lie! How am I suppose to travel with those nimrods and not reveal the fact I'm a girl?"
"Well, that shouldn't be too hard. Those guys are really naive." said Tsuki as he rubbed the back of his head. "Just don't tell the whole truth like I do. And if they ask you something you don't want to answer, just ask them a question, back or don't answer at all. Simple, I do it all the time." He suddenly flinched a little as his back gave a painful twinge.
"What's wrong?" asked Sanzo, noticing this.
"Hm? Oh nothing. My back's just sore, that's all." he said with a reassuring smile.
"Your back? Why? Are you hurt?" asked Sanzo.
"Why? You worried?" asked Tsuki with a smile. Sanzo frowned.
"Nice try." she said. "Take off your shirt, let's see what's wrong."
"No thanks. I know you want to get a look at this luscious bod of mine, but I'm afraid that I must decline your offer." said Tsuki as he stood. Sanzo sweat dropped.
"Don't flatter yourself. If you die, then I'm left alone and clueless about this body of mine. Plus I need you to remove the curse you placed on me." she said. "I don't need you killing yourself, so let me look at you."
"I have no idea what you mean. I'm fine. There's nothin' you can heal." said Tsuki.
"How do you know? Look, just take off your shirt and let me look at you before I decide to shoot you, or you kill over."
"For the last time, no! Now drop it already." But Sanzo ignored him and began to pull at his grey shirt, which, unfortunately for him, was button up shirt at the moment. If he died, then Sanzo was done for!
"I said no! Now cut that out!" said Tsuki as he tried to pull away. Suddenly the shirt ripped off and Sanzo gasped as her eyes widen. Tsuki's back, arms, and chest were covered with deep purple and red scars that looked like they were made by a whip.
"Ah, man! You ripped my shirt! And this was my only silk! You owe me another silk shirt!" Tsuki pouted, ignoring her stare as he picked up his ripped shirt. "And you better not get me that cheap stuff ether!"
"Tsuki..."
"Okay, okay, I guess I'll except the imitation silk."
"Stop thinking about your shirt, dammit! Don't you realized that you're covered with serious whip wounds?!" exclaimed Sanzo.
"Duh. I mean they hurt like hell. And look at them. They're kinda hard not to notice." muttered Tsuki.
"Why are you so damn calm?! And how come you never told me about them?" yelled Sanzo.
"Two reasons. One: You never asked. Second: I didn't want you to act like this. Look, it's no big deal. They're just scars now. Yeah, they hurt. A lot. But it's a pain I can live with it." Tsuki replied as he straightened up. He walked towards the door. "I'm gonna get a new shirt, since you tore this one. I'll meet up with you later. In the mean time, feel free to look around, just don't get killed." Then he left.
As he walked down the halls he looked at his wrist, which were heavily bandaged.
'The whips... The nails... The burns... They're all pains I can live with. But the pain of not being able to protect the one I love... That's the pain that rips me down to this day. It's the pain that's slowly killing me.' he thought. The image of a woman with long flowing sun gold hair and stern lavender eyes came to his mind. 'Kozen...' he thought sadly.
Finally he came to his room which was decorated with purple and gold curtains and lime green sheets on a wide queen size bed. His room totally clashed. He walked over to his dresser and pulled out a long cotton sleeved shirt and pulled it on. Then he flopped on his bed.
'Kozen... You're alive again, and yet... It's not you at all. You can never bring the dead back. I know that. Sanzo is Sanzo, your reincarnation. But that's it. She's not you. She looks like you and whacks me like you did...But she's not you. Kozen... Kozen, I miss you. Even though you're so close, you're so far.' He covered his eyes with his arm. 'It doesn't matter now. Your heart was mine, and mine alone 500 years ago. But Sanzo's heart belongs to another. I will watch over you Kozen. Even though I am just your crazy annoying stalker. Even though I'm just a woman who tells you how to be a girl. Even though you don't love me now. Even though, you don't remember the love we had. Even though you love someone else now. I will watch over you. That's all I want for now.' he thought as he reached his hand towards the ceiling.
Just then the door opened and there stood Sanzo with many emotions on her face.
"There you are." she said in low voice.
"Hey, San-chan. Come to try and catch me undressing? Sorry! You got your look." he teased as he stuck out his tongue. Sanzo twitched.
"I came here for answers, don't make me kill you." she growled as she entered.
"Ha, ha. Sorry. Ask away. You may ask whatever you want, however I don't promise I'll answer them all." Tsuki said as he sat up.
"Why do you have all those scars?" Sanzo asked. She knew that when talking to Tsuki she had to get straight to the point, otherwise she would never get her answers. Tsuki gave a sad, knowing smile with a half hearted chuckle.
"They're punishment for all the thing I did back home. I'm a bad boy, you could say. Let's see... For my crimes I was sent to hell and nailed to a cross, where I was whipped for 300 years or so. I lost count actually."
"You have to be lying! If that was true then you would be dead!" exclaimed Sanzo. "Not to mention, you'd be over 300 years old."
"San-chan, I'm insulted! I never lie! Not once in my entire life. I just don't tell the whole truth." Zanshi said as he unwrapped one of his wrists. "See? Here's proof." His wrist had a horrible scar that was dark red mixed with black and purple. Sanzo kept her face blank.
"...So who did you annoy this time? You don't seem the type to mess with people you know you can't beat." she asked. Tsuki just continued to smile as he wrapped his wrist back up.
"Shows how much you know me. I did a lot of things. Things that were forbidden and things that were unforgivable." he said.
"Like what?"
"Like have a love affair with my golden haired cousin for one!" laughed Tsuki.
"Wha?" exclaimed Sanzo with wide eyes as she almost fell off the bed.
"Ha, ha. I fell in love with my cousin when I was younger. She was very cute. She had a mean temper though. I loved to tease her. I loved everything about her. Her temper, her spirit, the way she seemed to turn red when I teased her, the way she always seemed to be in control, and the way she seemed to be able to see into your soul. She was the only one who ever completely understood me, and excepted me for who I am. I really, really loved her." Tsuki explained his face lighting up a bit as he spoke of his old lover.
"Wait a minute. 'Her'? Aren't you a woman?" asked Sanzo. Tsuki grinned.
"Kinda. Who knows. Maybe I'm gay or something, or just a plain guy. Ether way, I'm a stalker, babe." he winked. Sanzo sweat dropped.
"You know, you really shouldn't be admitting that. How your 'lover' ever handled you I'll never know."
"Actually she handle me the way you and my sister did."
"Your sister? You have a sister?" asked Sanzo, really surprised. She was learning a lot about Tsuki! That's good... right? Tsuki nodded.
"Yeah! My older half sister. I have a older brother too. Actually... Those two are the reason I'm here." he said sadly. "My sister... Was very competitive and moody, but we got along well. She was one of the people I was closest with. She really, really loved father... So she always worked like mad... To win his love in return. But he just shunned her. And she got hurt over and over. And all I could do was watch. But sis always withstood his rejection the best she could. And she always supported me and took care of me. She was an innocent girl, easily hurt and starving for affection. She just couldn't let father go. Seeing her get hurt over and over again... and watching her become twisted and hysterical... was heart breaking for me. There was nothing I could ever do for her." Sanzo saw a flash of pain flicker across his eyes. She didn't want to press anymore. She was touching old wounds not meant to be touched.
But Tsuki didn't seem to mind because he continued,
"Ha, ha. Family. What can you do? The only way you could tell that we were related was that we had the same color eyes. Our personalities were completely different... We had different mothers actually, all of us. In our family things got really messy. See, my father's really, really powerful and has a very high place in power, so there was a big mess about who would be his heir. My brother's the oldest and the most powerful, but he came from a Mistress. My sister was born through his legal wife, but she's a year younger and a girl. I'm from his other legal wife but I have... tainted blood you could say. And so... a fierce competition developed between our mothers. All saying, 'My child is the appropriate heir.' As a result, my siblings and I... were raised verrry strictly. At first I obediently went along with it and tried to live up to their demands. 'Cuz you know when you're a kid, your parents are everything. But one day... I started thinking, 'Isn't this kinda crazy? I'm being used as a pawn in someone else's stupid game.' I guess that's what they call the budding of one's self. I went on a huge rampage saying, 'I'm not gonna play your stupid game anymore!' Boy was my mom mad! She disowned me, and threw me to the curve. That's when my aunt stepped in took me in. After that... I was officially free! I could be myself now. I met my cousin awhile later, and after a year or so we officially lovers! But then things went really wrong. The competition between my brother and sister became worse. They never liked each other in the first place, but now it was ridiculous! My sister's dark side came out and my brother became more angry, and went too far. Way too far. Everything just started to fall apart after that." said Tsuki as he hugged his legs. "They were all such idiots. I guess that's one thing that ran in the family."
"Well you are a idiot." said Sanzo. "You can't blame yourself for the actions of your family. Living in the past is dumb."
"You mean like you?" asked Tsuki. Sanzo was quiet then said,
"Maybe... I'm an idiot, too." Tsuki chuckled as he stood.
"You're right, though. That was then, this is now. I have to stop living in the past and concentrate on the present. And right now I have to find the counter spell or there's gonna be real trouble."
"Why? Is there more to this curse?"
"No! Don't be so selfish! If that old hag finds out about this, I'm dead! I gotta reverse this fast!" Sanzo sighed. She knew that she wouldn't get anymore out of him. She stood.
"Your cousin..." she said slowly. "Must have been a very, very, very amazing person to handle you."
"Ha, ha! Yup! She kept me in line with a iron fan and her strict words! My sister helped too, but she was mostly busy with her little pet." Tsuki laughed. "Oh, man! Now that I think about it, it's a wonder I'm alive." Sanzo put a hand to her head.
"Why... Do you do this to me? Why do I feel like I can talk to you about anything? Why do I feel like I know you?" she asked. Tsuki grinned.
"It is because we are bonded by a string you might say." he said.
"Huh?"
"A bond. It's very strong bond that has lasted for a very long time." he smiled sadly. "But... I'm gonna have to sever it very soon."
"Hm?"
"Never mind. Now, we should get you back to your friends. The clone I made was just suppose to faint and wait until we came back. And it may take me awhile to find the counter spell, so I'll take you back now, and catch up with you after I find the counter spell." said Tsuki. Sanzo sighed.
"Fine. But if I get discovered, I'll kill you."
"I know, I know."
Tsuki flew to a town where the others were staying. Unfortunately for them, the whole Sanzo party seemed to be sharing a room, so it was going to be a challenge to sneak in and switch Sanzo with the clone, especially with Goku staring at it like that.
"Okay, Tsuki, how are we going to pull this off?" Sanzo asked.
"Um... No problem! I can do it!" said Tsuki.
"Does your plan include bombs?"
"Maybe."
"No bombs."
"No fun!"
"So how am I going to switch places with the clone?" asked Sanzo.
"Well, we could make a really loud by the window and when everyone comes to see what it was, you slip in and I'll make the clone vanish." suggested Tsuki. Sanzo twitched.
"You make it sound so easy." she growled sarcastically.
"Oh, just get in there and I'll handle the rest." Sanzo snuck around the back as Tsuki suddenly pulled out a alarm clock.
'Nothing more loud and annoying than a alarm clock. Or at least the only loud and annoying thing that can fit in my pocket.' he thought as he turned it. Then he set it down and ran off. 10 seconds later the alarm clock rang loudly. Very loudly.
"What the hell is that?!" exclaimed Gojyo as he and the others ran to the window.
"It sounds like a alarm clock." said Hakkai.
"What the hell is a alarm clock doing outside?" asked Goku. While they were at the window, Sanzo crawled into the bed where the clone had laid moments before it vanished. When the others turned back they saw she was awake.
"Sanzo! You're awake." said Goku.
"No duh." said Sanzo as she sat up.
"Why the hell did you run out of the Jeep like that?" asked Gojyo. Sanzo didn't answer at first, remembering she couldn't lie.
"I ran out... Because of the wound... s." she finally said.
"Why?" pressed Hakkai.
"Does it matter?" snapped Sanzo. Damn! She really hated Hakkai's interrogations! "Look, I'm tired. So stop bugging me and let me sleep." she said as she laid back down.
"Hey, wait a minute!" yelled Gojyo.
"Sanzo! You've been asleep all day." whined Goku. Sanzo cursed in her mind. She opened her mouth to reply, but Hakkai spoke up first.
"I think he should get some more rest. Then we can leave in the morning. However I would like to talk Sanzo alone for a moment. So please leave us alone."
"But--" started Goku. But Gojyo slung a arm around his neck and started to drag him out.
"C'mon, monkey. Let's go get something to eat." he said. He know there was no use arguing with Hakkai. And besides, if Sanzo was hiding something, Hakkai would find out. But he couldn't with them there. When they were gone, Hakkai shut the door and turned to Sanzo.
"Sanzo... We've known each other for 3 years. I don't know much about you, but I've known you long enough to know that you're hiding something. So I'll get straight to the point..." he said as he pulled up a stool. "Sanzo, are you lying to us?"

Will Hakkai find out what Sanzo's hiding? Will Tsuki find a way to reverse the spell? Will she kill herself, or tell the truth? The only way to find out is if I get 6 reviews. And I swear to reveal the secret at long last ONLY if I get SIX REVIEWS!!
