On A Day Like Today (4)
Homura>
::shakes his head::
Shien>
And where is the white dragon?
Zenon>
::he throws again and gets two 3s and a 5:: Aw fuck.... ::he puts
the 5 back in and throws again, getting a third 4:: Full House.
Sanzo>
What do I care? ::he stands up and walks over to the bathroom::
Konzen>
::sits down next to
Kenren:: How is it going?
Kenren>
Come on, you're cheating......::he throws and gets a 5, two 6s and
two 3s. He leaves the 6s out and throws again, getting two more with the
second retry:: Okay.....24 on 6...
Kenren>
::he turns to Konzen and grabs his waist:: Better now that you are
back......
Zenon>
::frowns:: I am cheating?
Hakkai>
::he picks up Ko and carries him back to the bar::
Homura>
::looks at Shien:: Shall we go now?
Goku>
::looks after Sanzo:: Man....
Kogaiji>
::he faints, too exhausted from using his energy::
Konzen>
::smiles at Kenren:: I hope so. ::leans against him::
Gojyo>
::he throws and gets a street:: Yeah!
Sanzo>
::in the bathroom he looks at himself in the mirror:: <w> You
damn stupid idiot... ::shakes his head::
Shien>
Sure, you are dressed now......
Zenon>
So much about cheating.... ::he writes it down and throws, getting
four 4s and a 6:: Aw, fine... ::he throws again twice, but only gets a 3
and a 2:: Okay, 16 on 4.
Homura>
::looks at Nataku, offering his hand to him:: You can trust me,
Nataku. I don`t want to hurt you. ::gives him a warm smile::
Nataku>
::he takes the hand, but looks at Goku:: Okay......
Kenren>
::he gives the dice to Konzen:: You do it for me.....
Goku>
Fine. ::smiles:: Better deers than pigs. ::he grabs Shien`s hand::
Let`s go!
Konzen>
Better not, I`m really not good at that.....
Shien>
::he smiles:: You saw pigs in the woods?
Kenren>
Come on......::kisses his neck again::
Goku>
Saw? They captured us. ::drags him out::
Konzen>
Okay then, I`ll try ::smiles and throws, getting four 6s and a 1::
Oh...
Kenren>
See, you can do it.....go on....
Homura>
::he follows with Nataku:: Captured? ::laughes:: Must have been
strange pigs......
Nataku>
They surrounded me and did not let me leave.......
Konzen>
Okay... ::he throws again and gets another 6::
Sanzo>
::comes out of the bathroom and sits down again, lighting a cig::
Keshinu>
::follows them outside::
Kenren> HAHAHA! ::ha grabs him and kisses Konzen wildly::
Gojyo>
That doesn't count!!!
Zenon>
Hey, that`s not fair!!
Shien>
::walks with Goku towards the woods:: The pigs did not let you go?
Goku>
::shakes his head wildly:: No, I had to lift one to make a way
through them.
Homura>
::laughes:: Really....
Kenren>
Come on....He did it fair......
Shien>
So, you are a pig-lifter, Goku?
Konzen> ::smiles at Kenren:: Good?
Zenon>
Aw fuck.... ::writes it down::
Kenren>
Great babe.......
Sanzo>
::watches them, silently smoking::
Enjoji>
::takes his seat on the bar again::
Goku>
::shrugs:: The pig didn`t seem to like it, but I didn`t know what
to do. ::looks at him:: Was that bad?
Hakkai>
::he enters with Ko in his arms and lays him down on one of the
tables::
Shien>
No, as long as you did not hurt them....you can lift pigs, but not
throw them....
Konzen>
::frowns at Hakkai:: What are you bringing?
Homura>
Throw them? Don`t give him ideas, Shien.
Goku>
I wouldn`t. Pigs can`t be thrown, frogs can. ::smiles at Shien::
Hakkai>
Kogaiji...::he carefully touches his forehead:: Can I have a glass
of water?
Sanzo>
::looks over his shoulder at Hakkai, frowning::
Shien>
Why do you think that?
Zenon>
::gives Hakkai a short glance:: Get him out. I don`t want Yokai in
my bar.
Homura>
You shouldn`t throw any animals....
Gojyo>
Why do you bring Ko here? ::he stands up and comes to Hakkai, but
hearing Zenon's words he turns to him:: Really, you don't want yokai in
here?
Nataku>
What about fish in the water?
Goku>
::shrugs:: There`s nothing else they are good for.......
Zenon>
::narrows his eye:: Not that one. ::he grabs for his gun::
Shien>
They eat bugs.....and that is important......::he smiles at Goku::
Homura>
Fish... well... if you don`t hurt them....
Hakkai>
I see, I get no help here.......::he lifts Ko up again:: Alright,
I'll leave.....
Goku>
Really? Hm.... ::thinks about that:: What about hoppers?
Shien>
Without them birds and other animals would starve.....
Konzen>
::he lays his hand on Zenon`s gun:: It`s okay, Hakkai. Bring him to
our house.
Tenpo>
::he stands up and opens the door to Hakkai:: I will go with him......
Zenon>
::takes the gun down:: Why? Just kill him, nobody needs that piece
of crap!
Sanzo>
::frowns at Gojyo:: Why is he here alone?
Hakkai>
::he looks at Zenon again:: Don't worry, no Yokai will ever enter
your bar again.......::he walks out and walks with Tenpo to their house::
Gojyo>
How shall I know? I wonder where Jien is......
Zenon>
Phew! ::looks after them:: That only brings trouble, believe me....
::comes back to the others, hearing Gojyo:: Who`s Jien?
Gojyo>
A Yokai......just like Kogaiji and Hakkai......
Konzen>
::stands up:: I go with them. ::he kisses Kenren:: Win for me.
Goku>
::he suddenly stops, seeing something:: There! ::points:: There was
a deer, I`m sure I saw one!!
Kenren>
I will.......::pets his butt::
Konzen>
::smiles at him, then follows the others::
Shien>
You must be be silent......you scare them.......
Zenon>
Well... ::shrugs:: Homura`s gonna like that. He was searching for
that one. Who`s next?
Enjoji>
::takes a deep breath::
Gojyo>
I'm not in the mood anymore.......
Goku>
::nods:: <w> But I really saw one......
Zenon>
::looks at Gojyo:: You got a problem?
Nataku>
I have one.....::a deer is nibbling on his pullover::
Homura>
::laughes lightly:: Seems we don`t have to search for them. ::kneels
down next to Nataku and pets the deer::
Gojyo>
Yeah! You insulted Hakkai.....and I'm worried about Jien.....
Zenon>
Whatever...... ::sits down::
Shien>
::he looks at the deer and smiles:: Oh yes, animals really like you......
Goku>
::licking his lips:: Aw, a deer......
Enjoji>
Zenon.....it is time to forgive......you have back what you were
robbed off. Now it is your turn to change you attitude.....
Nataku>
You will not eat my deer!!!
Zenon>
::looks at Enjoji:: Hey, I simply don`t have such a big love for
yokai. They`re all nuts.
Goku>
::looks at him:: Huh?
Homura>
::frowns at Shien:: <w> If he starts to eat it, I`m off!
Sanzo>
::silently smoking::
Shien>
You made a hungry sound, Goku....
Konzen>
::catches up with Hakkai and Tenpo:: What happened, Hakkai?
Gojyo>
Not all of them......
Zenon>
Then show me one!
Goku>
Really? Sorry... ::he slowly comes closer to the deer and pets it::
I would never eat such a sweet deer.....
Hakkai>
He attacked me on the graveyard, but he seems to be ill.....::He
brings him into the house after Tenpo opened the door::
Konzen>
::follows:: You seem to know him....
Nataku>
::a fawn comes to them and sniffs on Nataku:: Oh, Homura,
look......
Homura>
::smiles:: I see. They really seem to like you. ::he lays an arm
around the boy`s waist::
Gojyo>
I wish I could.......::he stand up and looks out of the window,
smoking::
Zenon>
::frowns at Gojyo, then starts to clean the glasses::
Hakkai>
Yes, I know him. He was after Sanzo's Sutra for quite a
time........::he lays Ko down on the couch:: Can I have water for him now?
Kenren>
What is wrong with him? ::he leans to Sanzo::
Nataku>
::he pets the fawn while the deer is still nibbling on him:: This
is so soft....
Konzen>
::nods:: Sure. ::he leaves and enters the kitchen, grabbing a glass
he fills it with some water. He comes back to Hakkai and gives him the
glass, grabbing a blanket and pulls it over Ko:: He seems not to have
slept for quite a time. Or did you hit him that hard?
Hakkai>
No....he was just weak....::he softly tries to wake Ko up:: Kogaiji.....wake
up.....
Sanzo>
Guess he`s worried about his brother.... ::frowns:: He wouldn`t let
Kogaiji go alone......
Kenren>
His brother?
Kogaiji>
::moving a bit, he slowly opens his eyes:: <w> I told you...
to leave me... alone....
Sanzo>
::only nods::
Zenon>
::hearing that, he looks at Gojyo`s back::
Homura>
::looks at Shien with a smile::
Hakkai>
::he puts the glass to Ko's lips:: Here, drink.......
Goku>
::he grabs a bit of the grass and holds it out to the deer::
Shien>
::he smiles back at Homura::
Nataku>
::the deer starts to eat the grass::
Kogaiji>
::drinks a bit of the water, then coughes again::
Konzen>
::shakes his head:: You should have gone to a doctor instead of
wandering around......
Hakkai>
Are you hurt, Kogaiji? ::he holds the glass for him::
Kogaiji>
::shakes his head and looks away:: <w> I´m fine......
Kenren>
::he looks at Zenon with a unsure look on his face::
Hakkai>
::he puts the glass down and carefully feels Ko's ribcage::
Goku>
::smiles brightly:: Aw, they`re soooooo sweet. Tomorrow we have to
bring Sora along. He`ll love them!!
Zenon>
::repeats the look:: Gojyo... maybe we can find your brother.... ::speaking
carefully::
Kogaiji>
::winces a bit and tries to shove Hakkai`s hand away::
Konzen>
::he leaves the living room and comes to Tenpo:: Maybe we should
prepare something to eat.
Shien>
Oh yes, he will.....but it was time for him to sleep.....::he pets
the deer::
Sanzo>
::looks at Gojyo, waiting for a reaction::
Tenpo>
Yes, that's a good idea.......::he takes out some food::
Gojyo>
::he turns and looks at Zenon:: My brother is a yokai. I don't
think you do care about him.......
Hakkai>
::he continues to feel the ribs, then he carefully undresses Ko::
Let me see if you are seriously hurt......
Zenon>
I have something against yokai that go on a rampage and kill
everything in sight, okay?
Kogaiji>
::moves away from him:: Don`t touch me, I`m fine.
Konzen>
::comes back into the living room:: Do you need anything, Hakkai?
Homura>
::for a short moment, his eyes glow. The grass begins to grow
quickly. Then it stops and the grass is half as big as Nataku::
Hakkai>
Yes, some warm water and a rag to clean him a bit. I have to see if
I have to do something else......::he touches Kogaiji's belly::
Nataku>
Hey! I'm lost in grassland!! ::he laughes and cuddles with the fawn::
Kogaiji>
::his body is covered with cuts and bruises, but he still moves
away from Hakkai, grabbing his hand now:: I said I`m fine.... ::he tries
to stand up from the couch::
Goku>
Aw, so much to eat for you! ::he continues to feed the deer that
could very good eat by itself::
Gojyo>
We have to ask Ko what happened.......::he looks so worried now::
Hakkai>
Now hold still.....::he pushes him down with his other hand::
Please, Ko, I want to help you....what happened to you?
Sanzo>
::nods:: Then you should do it.
Kogaiji>
::still fighting, but he is just too weak:: I don`t need your damn
help, murderer......
Konzen>
::frowns from the word "murderer"::
Hakkai>
We both are murderers, Kogaiji......::he looks into Ko's eyes:: Now
don't move.....Konzen, could you give me something to clean him up, please?
Konzen>
Sure. ::he hands him a wet towel:: Tenpo is preparing something to
eat...
Kogaiji>
::he gives up, laying back::
Hakkai>
::He starts to clean up Ko's body:: A few of your ribs are hurt but
not broken.....
Gojyo>
Yeah......maybe.....
Nataku>
They are so sweet.....I hope nobody will ever hurt them.......
Kogaiji>
::he closes his eyes:: <w> Who cares about that? It doesn`t
matter anymore if dead or alive.....
Goku>
Noooo! We will protect them! ::looks at Nataku::
Hakkai>
Ko, please, what happened and where are the others?
Nataku>
Yes! We will protect them. I am the God of War so I should be able
to do it!
Kogaiji>
::staring at the wall:: <w> Dead......
Homura>
::smiles:: Indeed..... ::he reaches out for the fawn and gently
pets it::
Sanzo>
::he sighs and stands up, looking at Gojyo:: Let`s go.
Hakkai>
::looks at him in shock:: What? What happened?
Kogaiji>
<w> We were attacked... everything is destroyed.....
Shien>
These woods are pretty safe I would say.....::he sits down on the
ground and also feeds the deer::
Goku>
::nods:: There are very many animals living here. I saw a wolf
yesterday.
Gojyo>
::he nods and walks out the door, heading for Konzen's home::
Nataku>
A wolf? They are dangerous!!
Zenon>
::looks after Gojyo:: Good luck...
Sanzo>
::follows Gojyo::
Homura>
::looks at Nataku:: Why do you think?
Nataku>
Wolves do eat people......
Homura>
::shakes his head:: No, they eat other animals when they are hungry.
Hakkai>
Who did attack you? ::he softly keeps washing Ko's body::
Shien>
Well, they do eat humans when they are very hungry.....but you
don't have to worry, here they have enough food....
Kogaiji>
::his face shows pain, but no physical:: I don`t know... they were
so many... they were too strong... We couldn`t stop them... ::shakes his
head:: <w> If only father had been there... ::looks at his hands::
<w> I`m too weak.... I couldn`t do anything.....
Goku>
Shall wolf come and try to eat Nataku, ha!
Hakkai>
::he just holds Ko close now, letting him feel comfort, the chance
to just release all the pain in his mind::
Gojyo>
::he knocks the door of Konzen's home:: Hello?
Konzen>
::he walks over and opens the door:: Yes?
Kenren>
Damned....do you really want to search for that guy?
Kogaiji>
::biting his lips to hold back tears::
Gojyo>
I need to talk to Ko. Is he alive?
Hakkai>
<w> Don't hold it back, Ko......I'm here to hide
them.......::he places his arms around Ko in a way nobody would see tears::
Zenon>
::shrugs:: I wouldn`t know where to start..... but still I guess I
have a better chance to find somebody than Gojyo... ::looks at Enjoji::
What do you think about that?
Konzen> Uhem, yes.... but
he`s in no good condition. ::lets him come in::
Enjoji>
I think you will lose your cool and shoot the guy as soon as you
see he is a yokai, Zenon....::he smiles::
Kogaiji>
::shakes his head:: Get off me... ::tries to push Hakkai away::
Shien>
I guess no wolf would eat him......but maybe lick him....
Zenon>
::sighs:: Hey, what about a bit trust?
Homura>
::laughes:: We should more be careful that none comes and takes him
away. Wolves happen to like to adopt human children. At least I`ve heard
about some cases where that happened.
Hakkai>
::just holds him close being so much stronger:: Ko.....it is
okay....we are no enemies anymore......::He sees Gojyo and makes a sign to
be silent and leave them alone for some time::
Sanzo>
::he waits in the floor::
Shien>
Yes, that is true.....
Nataku>
But I have a home.....
Goku>
::frowns:: Really? That is odd......
Homura>
Yea, but how shall the wolf know?
Tenpo>
::he opens the door to the kitchen and waves to the others to come
in::
Gojyo>
::he nods and walks into the kitchen::
Konzen>
::looks at Hakkai:: Hakkai, you should let him sleep a bit.
Kogaiji>
::leaning a bit against Hakkai::
Sanzo>
::he nods and enters the kitchen, sitting down on a chair. He takes
out a cig and offers one to the others::
Tenpo>
::he takes a cig:: Thank you....
Gojyo>
::he takes one and lights it, looking very worried now::
Sanzo>
::he lights first Tenpo`s, then his own cig and leans back:: So,
what now?
Tenpo>
Well, I'm just cooking some soup.....Hakkai tries to calm down the
guy a bit.....
Nataku>
I will tell him.......
Konzen>
::enters the kitchen, closing the door behind him:: Oh my, that
really sounds bad. Seems like the yokai were attacked by somebody they
couldn`t fight.......
Goku>
And if the wolf doesn`t care and takes you home? ::looks at
Nataku::
Hakkai>
::he holds Ko, still giving him the chance to just let his feelings
out:: It's okay....we are alone.....
Tenpo>
::he shoots a look at Konzen that could have killed a mad bear::
Kogaiji>
No...it...it is okay.... ::he leans back:: <w> I´m gonna
kill those bastards......
Enjoji>
Well......::he laughes::
Konzen> Tenpo, I´m serious. No mere humans could do that..... ::gives him a worried look::
Nataku>
Then I will call for your help!
Gojyo>
::he burries his face in his hands::
Zenon>
Yea, I see.... ::pets his leg:: But really, I wonder what happened
there. ::lights up a cig::
Goku>
And I will help you!
Tenpo>
::he stands up and drags Konzen into the bathroom:: <w> Are
you crazy? One of the missing yokai is Gojyo's brother!
Sanzo>
::shakes his head and lays a hand on Gojyo`s shoulder::
Konzen>
Oh... ::gives him a confused look:: Sorry.....
Hakkai>
You need rest now......and you are hurt.....let me care for you
while you sleep......
Kogaiji>
<w> I´m not tired.... ::looks away::
Shien>
Well, then nothing can happen...look, there are more deers coming
here......
Homura>
::smiles:: It`s getting late, kids. Maybe we should soon return.
Gojyo>
::he stands up and walks for the door::
Nataku>
NO! I want to stay here with them!
Sanzo>
::stands up as well:: Where are you going?
Enjoji>
::he smiles and comes a lil closer to Zenon::
Homura>
::holds up his hands:: Okay okay, no problem. As if I`d refuse an
order from the God of War....
Gojyo>
I....I have to.......::he shakes his head and tries to leave the
room::
Tenpo>
Really, you should think before talking......
Nataku>
That wouldn't be good for you....
Sanzo>
::grabs his arm:: You do nothing but stay here and calm. ::he drags
him back to the chair:: Gojyo, you can`t do anything before you know what
happened... ::looks at him::
Konzen> I`m sorry. But
really, think about it. Who could be able to attack the yokai with
such...well...success?
Hakkai>
You must rest....you did not sleep for a long time....::he starts
to wrap bandages around Ko's body::
Homura>
::grins at Shien: Yea...
Tenpo> Tenkai......
Konzen>
::nods:. Exactly.
Shien>
::he pets some of the deers around him:: I just hope we get no
rain....
Kogaiji>
::just staring into the air::
Hakkai>
We will help you, Ko......::he looks into Ko's eyes::
Goku>
Nah, there`s no scent of rain in the air. ::moves to another deer
to feed it::
Gojyo>
Lemme go! I have to search for my brother! ::he stands up again::
Sanzo>
::still holding his arm:: Stop it, you don`t even know where to
search for him. Damn it, Gojyo, he`ll be allright. ::pushes him down on
the chair again::
Tenpo>
Well, I have to say it was good that they destroyed the place
before they could revive the monster......but it is hard to see innocents
suffer.....
Kogaiji>
::he sighs, shaking his head:: It`s no use.....
Konzen>
::nods:: If it means Tenkai or yokai, I know what I`d prefer....
::he opens a board:: Do we still have that painkiller serum? I guess he
could need some of it....
Hakkai>
Now rest....::he softly pushes him back:: You need sleep.....
Tenpo>
::he takes out a bottle:: I will hide it in the soup......::he
leaves the bathroom, takes some soup, puts the painkiller in and brings it
to Hakkai:: Here, it will help him......
Zenon>
::looks at Enjoji:: What?
Konzen>
::follows Tenpo, waiting in the door::
Enjoji>
::he kisses Zenon's forehead:: It is good to see you have a
heart.....
Hakkai>
::he takes the soup:: Here, drink it, Ko......
Zenon>
::rolls his eyes:: Hell, I know I`ll regret it someday.......
Kogaiji>
::he takes the soup and drinks a bit:: <w> Thank you.....
Enjoji>
I don't think so....
Zenon>
Okay, let`s see. Who would attack yokai and leave them like that?
Gojyo>
I know where to go.....and I have to search for him, Sanzo! Just
because you have nobody you care for, I HAVE! ::his voice getting louder
each word::
Enjoji>
Tenkai...they were planning it.....because they had to stop them
for reviving the monster....
Sanzo>
::makes a face from the screaming:: Okay okay, I see you`re just
too damn stubborn to think. Then let`s go. ::lets go of his arm::
Gojyo>
::he looks at Sanzo:: You want to come with me?
Sanzo>
::shrugs:: Got nothing better to do....
Zenon>
::nods, a mean smile coming to his face:: I really could get into
the mood to kick some of their asses...
Kogaiji>
::after drinking from the soup, he lays back and slowly falls
asleep::
Kenren>
Then go over to my place and take the redhead with you on the quest
to search for the lost brother.....
Hakkai>
So, I hope he will sleep for some time......
Zenon>
I`m pretty sure he already run off. But I should tell Homura, he`s
always happy when he can beat somebody up. Somebody else than Shien....
Gojyo>
What about your thing with Hakkai?
Konzen>
::nods:: I`m sure he`ll be better tomorrow. He needs some sleep and
something to eat.
Sanzo>
Can`t we talk about that later?
Enjoji>
I still feel their presence....go now and you have a chance....
Zenon>
::nods:: Yea, having a bit exercise can`t be wrong. Can you look
after Sora, Jo? ::looks at Enjoji::
Enjoji>
Sure, I will....and Shien
will, too, for sure, he is the Godfather....
Nataku>
Homura.....you are right, we should go home.....I'm getting
tired......
Zenon>
::frowns:: I didn`t mean that when I die. Only for the next few
hours.
Enjoji>
So did I, idiot!
Homura>
::nods:: Okay. It`s really getting late. The deers will still be
here tomorrow.
Nataku>
::he holds his arms out to Homura::
Zenon>
Better for you. ::he disappears::
Gojyo>
Okay......I guess he will stay here....
Homura>
::smiles and takes him on his arms, careful not to hurt him with
the chain::
Sanzo>
::nods:: What about the saru?
Shien>
Homura, give him to me...you are needed elsewhere....I get a call
from Zenon......
Gojyo>
No...leave him here......he has his lil friends to care about.....
Homura>
::looks at Shien:: I see..... ::hands Nataku over to him:: Then see
you later. ::also disappears::
Sanzo>
::nods:: Then let`s go. ::heads for the door::
Nataku>
Now he is gone....
Goku>
::stands up:: What is going on? ::looks at Shien::
Gojyo>
::follows him, passing Ko on the couch, with a cold look::
Konzen>
Where are you going?
Shien>
Zenon wants to search with Homura for Gojyo's brother....the Yojai
were attacked by the gods.....he is missing....::he walks with the kids
through the woods::
Zenon>
::waiting for Homura, a bit away from the yokai tower::
Gojyo>
Away. ::he continues walking::
Goku>
::gets big eyes:: Jien is missed? What happened? And Lilin? And Ko?
And Yaone?
Konzen>
::looks at Hakkai, then after Sanzo and Gojyo:: But......
Shien>
Only Kogaiji is here.....
Hakkai>
You can't stop them......::he looks at Ko with sad eyes::
Nataku>
That sounds bad....who is Kogaiji?
Homura>
::appears next to Zenon:: They are still here. I only wonder what
they are searching for.
Konzen>
I see.... ::he reaches out his hand and a gate appears in front of
Gojyo:: Good luck then....
Gojyo>
::he looks at Sanzo and walks through the gate::
Goku>
He`s the prince of the yokai. ::thinking:: I fought him a few
times, he`s pretty strong.....
Sanzo>
::follows Gojyo::
Kenren>
::he says by to Enjoji and goes home::
Zenon>
::looks around:: Damn, that tower is almost completely destroyed. I
don`t think anyone could survive in there......
Nataku>
The son of Gyuuma Ou?
Homura>
::nods:: And if there are survivors, they`ll either kill or
imprison them. ::he sighs:: Let`s go.
Goku>
::nods:: Yea.... and one of his followers is Gojyo`s brother.
Gojyo>
::appears right behind Zenon and Homura, sheer terror in his eyes
seeing what once was his brother's home::
Nataku>
That's not good......
Sanzo>
::looks around, seeing the dead bodies of hundreds of yokai lying
everywhere:: <w> Kuso.....
Kenren>
::he comes home and kisses Konzen to greet him:: Hi....how is the
yokai?
Konzen>
He`s sleeping. And Gojyo and Sanzo have left to search for Gojyo`s
brother.... ::sighs:: That is the work of the Heaven`s Army I fear......
Kenren>
Enjoji said so, too.....and I have to say it is not that bad at
all.....I hate war and the death of the innocent.....but the return of the
king could have meant the end of the world....
Homura>
::looks at Gojyo:: Calm down. You can`t just run in there, they`ll
kill you.
Gojyo>
::he watches the few gods that are still there:: I'm not afraid of
them......
Konzen>
Yes. But they wouldn`t have been able to revive him without the
sutra Sanzo is carrying.
Zenon>
::shakes his head:: Leave them to us. If you want into the tower,
go. But don`t lay your hope on it.
Hakkai>
Well, but they came very far, a few times....and the yokai around
here are all mad......::he softly caresses Ko's face::
Konzen>
Yes, but he seems to be normal. ::looks at Ko::
Hakkai>
He is a prince...and he has limiters, just like me....
Shien>
::he arrives at Konzen's home and knocks the door::
Homura>
::he takes out his sword:: And you better hurry. ::looks at Gojyo::
Konzen>
::walks over and opens the door::
Gojyo>
I will....::he starts to run into the ruins of the tower, not
caring for what happens around him:: **You once told me about this
place....the savest places are the dungeons......**
Sanzo>
::he hurries to follow Gojyo::
Shien>
Hi.....Here, I have your kids.....and now I need to go home and
care for my Godchild....::he hands over Nataku to Konzen::
Zenon>
::he disappears and reappears next to one of the gods, knocking him
down::
Konzen>
Thank you ::takes Nataku:: Goku, come in, Hakkai is here.
Homura>
::jumps up, lifting his sword and lands just in front of one of the
gods, cutting him into half::
Shien>
Have a good night, Konzen. And thank you again for your
help.....::he smiles at him::
Nataku>
::leans to Konzen, very tired now:: Golden hair.....
Konzen> ::nods:: No problem. Say my greetings to Enjoji.
Goku>
::rushes inside:: Hakkai? Hakkai! What happened???
Konzen>
::smiles at Nataku:: You need your bed now.
Gojyo>
::he runs down the broken staircase and tries to find a way into
the dungeons:: JIEN? SHA JIEN?
Hakkai>
Hush Goku......he needs sleep....we go to the kitchen....
Sanzo>
::he follows Gojyo, suddenly two of the gods standing in his way::
Aw kuso...... ::he takes out his gun, knowing very well it won`t help
much::
Goku>
::nods, looking at the sleeping Ko with big eyes:: Will he be okay?
Konzen>
::he walks upstairs and enters Nataku`s room:: Now quickly get into
your pyjamas and then you gonna sleep. ::lets him down on the bed::
Gojyo>
::he turns around and looks at the gods. Then he slams his weapon
through the back of one of them, killing him::
Nataku>
Yes.....::he starts to slowly undress::
Homura>
::slicing through two others, he turns to Zenon:: Go inside, before
they get killed. I can do that alone here.
Sanzo>
::seeing the other one is distracted for a moment, he grabs him by
the hair and smashes his head hardly against the wall::
Gojyo>
::with a short move he cuts off the head of the second god that
Sanzo is holding:: Let's move on....
Hakkai>
Yes, he will....::he stands up and goes into the kitchen, followed
by Kenren and Tenpo::
Zenon>
Aye! ::disappears and then is suddenly standing next to Gojyo::
Konzen>
::smiles at Nataku:: Good boy... ::pulls up the blanket, so Nataku
can crawl beneath them::
Goku>
::follows into the kitchen, curiously looking at the pot of soup::
Gojyo>
I hate you when you do that! ::his weapon is on Zenon's throat::
Nataku>
::he lies down and smiles at Konzen:: I saw pigs and deers......
Zenon>
::holds up his hands:: Hey, I just want to help you, my...
Tenpo>
::he smiles at Goku:: You can take some, if you like.....
Homura>
::fighting the other gods, he lets a huge wall of fire appear
around them. Grins at them:: So, now we can play without any interruption!
::again he slices right through one of them::
Gojyo>
::he takes down the weapon and starts to search again:: SHA JIEN?
JIEN? ARE YOU HERE??
Konzen>
Really? Well, then I`m sure you`ll have nice dreams tonight.
::kisses his forehead:: Sleep well....
Goku>
::eyes grow big:: REALLY?
Kenren>
Sure.....we have enough....or Konzen makes new one....
Nataku>
<w> Yes.....::he falls asleep::
Zenon>
There`s a sign of life. Downstairs. In the dungeons. ::he turns
around to block a hit when more of the gods come after them:: Go down!
Gojyo>
::he more jumps than runs down the stairs and enters the dungeons::
JIEN? JIEN??
Konzen>
::smiles at the boy, then he turns out the lights and leaves the
room, going downstairs::
Goku>
::grabs the pot:: Thank you!!!
Sanzo>
Gojyo! ::he points down on a few stones that broke from the walls.
An arm is showing from somebody lying underneath it::
Kenren>
Well, as far as I now know is that Tenkai attacked the tower of the
yokai. Except for this one, none came out again....
Homura>
::he kills some more of them, really having fun doing it::
Gojyo>
::he runs there and tries to move the stones:: Kuso....I should
have brought the bakazaru with me.....
Sanzo>
::he grabs one of the stones:: Aw fuck... it is too heavy....
Konzen>
::comes back into the kitchen:: I doubt they`ll find survivors....
Zenon>
::grabs one of the attackers and breaks his neck with one quick
move, then smashes another one right into the wall:: Damn... WHAT TAKES
YOU SO LONG?
Hakkai>
I hope they do......
Goku>
::eating:: But aren`t they in danger, Hakkai?
Gojyo>
We can't move the stone!!! ::he tries again but without much
success::
Hakkai>
Yes, they are.......but I was not able to stop them....and Gojyo
didn't want us to come along......
Zenon>
Aw fuck! ::he disappears before a hit can reach him and reappears
next to Gojyo:: We have to hurry, there`re coming more and more. ::he
grabs one side of the biggest stone:: Come on......
Goku>
::sighs:: I hope they find the others...... ::looks at the now
empty pot:: I`m still hungry......
Konzen>
::sits down on Kenren`s lap::
Gojyo>
::he pushes the stone upwards with all power left inside::
Sanzo>
::grabs the stone also, trying to lift it::
Tenpo>
Dear, could you help him? ::he smiles at Konzen and at the pot::
Kenren>
::He hugs his lover::
Konzen>
Sure. ::he looks at the pot and his eyes glow for a moment. The pot
is suddenly refilled completely::
Goku>
Aaahhhh! ::starts eating again, sitting down on the ground with the
pot on his lap::
Hakkai>
::he leans back::
Homura>
::finishes off the last of his opponents and sighs:: The Heaven`s
Army is really not what it was before......
Zenon>
Fuck... ::he lets the stone fall next to them:: Gojyo, is that your
brother?
Hakuryu>
::he comes back from his flight in the woods, entering the living
room through a window. He sits down on Ko's chest, softly licks his face
and rolls down on him to sleep and keep Ko warm, knowing exactly that
Hakkai cares for him::
Sanzo>
::kneels down next to the body on the ground, touching his neck to
search for a pulse. He looks up at Gojyo:: He is alive.
Gojyo>
::He kneels down and lifts him up, carefully carrying him:: Let's
leave that damned place.....
Homura>
::the flames around him disappear::
Sanzo>
Yea... ::he heads back for the stairs::
Zenon> See
you outside! ::he disappears again::
