Ash:Okay just so ya know! Its in my p.o.v, then Lyn's, then Sanzo's, then Kim's.. just so ya know and don't get confused. Enjoy!
The man who owned the inn had finished showing us around and he was currently working on a feast for us scince we had been his first people to stay at the place... he hadn't had many people stay, the last people to stay was two years ago. Heck the place was cool except Goku thought I was a bit nutty for seeing a chair float and he still thought I was joking, so I didn't dare tell the others about it. The old man who owned the inn's name was Kirishami, he was a creepy old dude but the tone of his voice gave me the impression that he wouldn't hurt a fly. A nice calm soothing voice... he has grey hair that was pulled back in a low pony tail and his eyes were a ice blue color that seemed to give you goosebumbs. He wore a old fashion suit that was a bit dirty and his skin was a abnormal pale color. The inn was large, and it had a rough history behind it as well. The inn used to be his daughters house who she lived with her family including him. She had passed away suddenly after she got married and her husband had commited suicide, the old man had looked after the house with his great daughter who died at the age of four. The little girl's name was Naomi and she was pretty for a four year old, had dirty blonde hair and icy blue eyes... The man said he had converted the house into a inn scince he didn't need so much space. We all got seperate rooms, they were large and we could probably fit Hakuryuu and Kenryuu in the rooms but... yeah we don't want to do what happend last time! I was sitting in my room brushing my hair and waiting for the old man to come up and tell us the food was ready, it was boring I liked having Kim and Lyn in the same room but I think they were asleep or something. Thunder boomed above and cold rain hit the roof.. Sanzo wouldn't be too happy, he hated the rain and got really moody. 'I wonder what happend... when that chair'? The chair floating in the air flashed in my mind and I sat down the brush. This inn gave me a weird vibe, like someone was watching me and when I got that feeling I turned to see no one... I slowly walked over to the door, the sound of my bare feet softly moving across the floor filled the quiet room. I cracked the door a bit and peered out into the pitch black hallway, the pictures on the wall sitting there... they were creeping me out a bit but they are just pictures. I stepped out into the hall and looked around, the lights were all out and the only light I got was when the lightning flashed outside. I heard a creak from the floorboards and I slowly turned my head a bit, my eyes grew wide at what I saw... 'I-is that... no it can't be... holy freedom fries... is it'? I saw Goku on the end of the hallway, slowly walking up the stairs... nothing to be afraid of right? Wrong... he was different... He was pure white head to toe, his hair, skin, and clothing a ghostly white... He sneezed and then reached his hand up and ruffled his hair a bit, white dust came from his hair and floated in the air. He looked at me and gave a smile, his gold eyes were the only thing that was the same about him! He then walked toward me and I took a step back, his footprints were a visible white powder on the floor and when he moved more white dust trailed behind him in the air. 'G-goku is...' I backed up more and he kept walking toward me with a smile on his face. 'A ghost, I gotta tell the others'! I quickly spun around on my right foot and faced the other direction before running down the hall.
"Ashurri wait up"! called Goku after me, I could hear him run right behind me. I kept running, 'He's going to eat my soul'! I took a deep breath and let out a scream while running down the hall, the ghost chasing right after me and asking me to stop. Not a chance...
I quickly sat up and stood up from the bed as I heard Ashurri scream down the hall, it was loud and then it grew very faint. I jerked the door open and stuck my head out of the doorway and looked right then left, I saw Gojyo doing the same. I looked down at the wooden floor and saw snowy white dusty footprints going down the hall... what the heck is going on? I stepped out into the hall and walked over to Gojyo, staring at the white footprints. Gojyo bent down and wiped some of the white dust onto his hand and smelled it, he sneezed and then wiped it onto his pants. The hallway was dark, why was Ashurri running down the hall? Eww what was that white stuff? I did the same and picked up a bit of white dust on my index finger and sniffed it, my nose twitched... 'Flour.. what the heck is up with the flour'? I looked at Gojyo and we both sighed, better go find her... and find out why she was screaming. My eyes darted back and fourth as I walked down the dark hall with Gojyo strolling down the hall next to me... 'Its so creepy' I thought as I inched over toward Gojyo, my arm bumbing into his. Slowly I linked my arm with his and walked close next to him, this place was just... yeah..
"This place... so creepy" I whispered. "I hate the dark halls".
Gojyo looked at me and closed his eyes, smiling a bit. "Yeah well..." He looked at me and flashed a smile, "You always have me to keep ya safe". I smiled and nodded, looking straight ahead. Gojyo probably wasn't afraid of any thing, I mean what can be scarier than a yokai? Nothing, right? A low creak from behind made me shiver a bit but I just kept walking with Gojyo, not taking a glance behind me... yeah I wasn't going to do that. I wonder what was taking that old guy... I was hungry we didn't exactly stop for food and I bet Goku went down to the kitchen to sneak some food. Wait... he must have did that and... fell in some flour of course! That still doesn't explain why Ashurri was screaming though... The floorboard behind us creaked again. I stopped in my tracks and so did Gojyo, we looked at each other and then slowly turned our heads to look over our shoulders. My eyes grew wide... a picture, a chair, and a lamp... was floating in mid air... no strings attached like puppets, no tricks... nothing...
Gojyo and I looked at each other, both of us with freaked out faces.Yeah its freaking creepy when furniture is floating in mid air and following you! "HOLY SHIT"!! We both dashed down the hallway quickly, the furniture zooming after us...
I growled to myself and walked down the hall, the old man had told me that dinner was ready and of course no one was in their rooms... So I would have to find the idiots... My eyebrow twitched a bit and I kept walking, the sound of the rain echoing through the hall. Thunder boomed loudly and another twitch came from my eyebrow. Where were they?! I muttered some curse words under my breath and kept walking, from the corner of my eye I saw something unusual... the pictures eyes followed me. I sighed in annoyance and kept walking, didn't matter to me. The eyes were staring at my back and I kept walking, the idiots had to be found before they broke something.
"Genjyo Sanzo... your friends will suffer in this place, leave if you value your lifes" said a voice, I shrugged and kept on walking down the hall.
"You know what I don't care and shut the hell up" I stated before turning down another hall.
I sighed and walked down the hallway with Hakkai, the others were no where to be found upstairs in their rooms so we were checking downstairs. We had looked in the kitchen... the food was on the dinning room table but the old man had disappeared, it was like he was gone without a trace. I hummed a song and then checked in the sitting room, nothing it was just like when i first saw it. Furniture old and it smelled old, every flat surface covered in thick dust, cobwebs, the room was cold and you could see your breath when you exhaled. I sighed and walked out to the front door and looked at Hakkai, shaking my head no. He sighed and nodded, turning to go look somewhere else when... the lights suddenly cut off making the entire inn pitch black. I could hear the windows lock and so did the door... did they just lock on their own because I certainly did not see anyone in the room. I could hear someone whisper and I looked around the room slowly, my eyes trying to see through the dark. 'Must have gone out because of the storm... but that doesn't explain the locks' I silently heard a few murmurs and I turned my head, Hakkai did the same... A woman stood on the end of the hallway. She looked old, her skin had wrinkles and the dress was old as well. Her eyes were a ice blue which was strange, they were like the old man's eyes. She wore a old maroon colored dress and she had long grey hair that hanged a bit in her face, her shoulders shook a bit like she was laughing or crying. Her head was bowed, her face facing the ground as her shoulders moved up and down. A horrid sick laugh came from her and she looked up a bit, her right eye looking at us both. She slowly rose her arm and pointed at us, laughing her sick laugh more..
"Cho Hakkai, Mayumi Kimiko... you two will die in this house" Her head shot up more and she laughed louder, her image slowly fading and then disappearing.
I slowly looked at Hakkai and he looked at me, "Oh dear" we said in unison.
"It looks like this isn't a regular old inn" I stated.
Hakkai nodded silently, "Your right but... we can't be seeing things could we"?
"I don't know, I mean you saw it and I saw it... so is it real or fake"?...
Ash:G-ghost.
Lyn:Floating lamps...
Kim:Creepy old lady...
Kim, Ash, and Lyn:Scary...
Hakkai, Gojyo, and Goku:Never staying at this inn ever again...
Sanzo:Tch... who cares... -Reads newspaper silently-
Ash:If you see this in beware...
Kim:Ashurri doesn't own Saiyuki or its characters, they belong to Kazuya Minekura. Ash, Lyn, and I are real. Enjoy!!
