SailorStar9: This is Chapter 14 of this fic. (Sighs) Every time I write these B.S. disclaimers, I die a little inside. Remember, boys and girls, reviews are an author's subsistence.

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and the pairings.

Chapter 14: Guilty or Not Guilty

"Let's go." Sanzo led the rest of the group further into the Tower. "What're you trying to pull here?" he barked. "Let's go, Goku." he informed the teen, Gojyo having stepped up to deal with Homura's bodyguards.

"The first stage is complete." Shien voiced. "Entering stage two."

"So it doesn't matter if we step away from here?" Zenon asked.

"No, these Scriptures have served their purpose as well." Shien replied.

"All right." Homura sounded.

"Standing still isn't my thing." Zenon stretched himself.

"The energy necessary to create a new Heaven and Earth is gradually gathering with the Tower as its focal point." Shien stated. "What we need next is the key to open the door to the next world.

"Son Goku, right?" Homura grinned.

"Then I guess we'll go get him." Zenon smirked.

"Homura!" Goku gaped when Sanzo flung open the door.

"Well done, to come this far." Shien praised.

"We've been waiting." Zenon added.

"I heard that something I'd lost was being held here." Sanzo declared.

"Might that be the Scripture?" Homura questioned. "If you want it, I'll return it to you. But in exchange, I'll take Son Goku."

After Homura took out Sanzo and Hakuryu, Zenon, Shien and Homura knocked Goku out.

"So long." Zenon took aim at Sanzo after Homura claimed Goku when Kougaiji burst in, along with the nine-tailed vulpine Tokusa. "Gyomoah's son.." he recognized. "And the Demon Queen of Nature."

"What do you want?" Shine questioned.

"I've come to return past favors." Kougaiji replied. "I don't like being on the losing end forever."

"Lirin's here too." Lirin beamed, peeking from behind her half-brother.

"Now, let us begin." Homura smiled, Goku now in the middle of the ritual circle. "The time has come for the door to the new Heaven and Earth to open." he removed Goku's power limiter.

SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
