On A Day Like Today (5)

 

 Konzen>   I wonder.... is there any chance they can fight against the Heaven`s Army? I mean.... as far as I heard, this army is undefeatable....

 Gojyo>   Great, he just leaves us behind.........

Zenon>   ::he reappears on the stairs and continues fighting the gods that are trying to head downstairs:: HEY HOMURA! LEND ME A HAND HERE!

 Tenpo>   Well, as far as I know without Nataku the army is not as strong as it was.....

 Homura>   ::appears next to Zenon:: No problem.... ::slashes his sword through the moving bodies::

Sanzo>   Argue later! ::kicks the next one out of his way::

 Gojyo>   ::he starts to climb up the stairs with his brother in his arms:: **Don't you dare to die**

Hakkai>   I hope they have a chance. I mean we fought against armies before.......

 Sanzo>   ::he arrives at the top, turning around, he waits for Gojyo::

 Gojyo>   ::he arrives at the top, cursing about Jien's height and weight::

Zenon>   Homura, bring them back. ::he pushes back one of the attackers and a wind starts to surround them::

 Homura>   Okay. ::he appears right in front of Gojyo:: Are you okay? ::he grabs for Jien`s body:: Let me carry him. We have to go, there are coming too much of them.

 Kogaiji>   ::he moves a bit, slowly waking up:: Hmmm...?

Hakuryu>   ::he looks at Ko:: weehh...

 Gojyo>   ::he lets Homura take his brother, but is not very happy about it:: Yeah, let's get going......

 Kogaiji>   ::his eyes flush open and he lets out a short scream:: Aw.... oh, it`s you.... ::sighs::

 Hakkai>   ::he jumps up and runs to Ko:: Are you alright? Hakuryu! Did you scare him?

 Zenon>   ::his eye starts to glow and around him lightnings appear from nowhere and crash right into the other gods::

 Hakuryu>   feee wee.....

 Kogaiji>   Sorry.... ::looks at Hakkai:: I just didn`t expect that... ::he pets Hakuryu:: Guess I scared him far more than he scared me......

 Homura>   ::he opens a gate, tossing a short look over his shoulder:: ZENON, MOVE YOUR ASS!

 Goku>   ::comes after Hakkai, frowning:: Hakuryu isn`t scary.

Gojyo>   ::he walks through the gate and waits for the others::

 Hakkai>   ::he sits down next to Ko:: Are you feeling better?

 Sanzo>   ::follows Goyjo::

 Zenon>   ::appears next to Homura and follows him through the gate::

 Kogaiji>   ::nods:: Yes, thank you. ::still petting the dragon::

Hakuryu>   ::licks Ko's face::

 Hakkai>   Gojyo and Sanzo are searching for your friends......::he softly smiles at Ko::

 Kogaiji>   ::looks away:: They shouldn`t. Everything was destroyed. The whole place is full of those...people ::spits the word::

Goku>   ::he sits down on the ground and watches Ko and Hakkai::

Gojyo>   ::back in Niebelheim he takes his brother from Homura's arms again and carries him to Konzen's home:: Open that fucking door!!!

 Homura>   ::looks after Gojyo:: Poor guy.... so worried.... ::follows him::

 Goku>   ::jumps up:: Gojyo!!! ::he opens the door::

 Sanzo>   ::lights up a cig and follows Gojyo::

 Gojyo>   ::without looking at Goku he pushes him out of the way and brings Jien inside, laying him down on the second couch in the living room::  Don't you dare to die right now.....

 Zenon>   ::looks after them, then disappears and reappears in the bar:: I`m back.... ::he sits down and looks at Enjoji:: Gimme a beer...... ::takes out a cig::

 Hakkai>   Oh my god.......

 Kogaiji>   ::moves up:: Doku.....

 Goku>   ::follows into the living room:: Oh my, Gojyo, what happpened???

 Enjoji>  ::he gives him a beer:: Shien is sitting next to Sora's bed. The lil one had a nightmare.....::he smiles::

Hakkai>   ::he comes to Jien and feels the pulse:: Damned....so weak......

 Zenon>   Is he okay? ::lights the cig and takes a sip of the beer::

Homura>   ::he stops in front of the house::

 Enjoji>  Sure, his godfather was there.....He is sleeping again. He told us about pigs that wanted to eat him....

 Zenon>   ::laughes:: Oh my, what kids get in their minds.

 Gojyo>   Hakkai! DO SOMETHING!!!! ::he screams at Hakkai::

 Kenren>  ::he grabs Gojyo's arm:: Hey, stop yelling at him.....

 Kogaiji>   ::he looks at Jien:: <w> Shit.....

 Sanzo>   ::he passes Homura and walks into the house, coming into the living room::

Konzen>   ::lays a hand on Gojyo`s arm:: Calm down. Let Hakkai help him, you only disturb him now.

 Hakkai>   ::after looking at Jien he takes a deep breath:: Okay....he has internal bleeding.....I can do nothing except to try and cut him open and stop the bleeding. But I don't see much chances for him, he already lost much blood.....

 Gojyo>   ::he is almost going mad from hearing that:: Help him, you well-studied bastard!

 Kogaiji>   ::stands up, holding his ribs:: You have to help him.

 Sanzo>   Gojyo, it`s enough now. ::he grabs him hard by his arm:: You come to the kitchen now. Hakkai will do what he can.

Hakkai>   Sanzo! I need the kitchen. Empty the table and clean it up.....Kogaiji...::he turns to him:: I need your blood.......

 Homura>   ::with a fine smile, he takes a last look at the house, then he turns around and starts walking home::

 Kogaiji>   ::nods:: Sure......

 Sanzo>   Fine. ::he pushes Gojyo down on the couch where Ko was before::

Tenpo>   ::he empties the table and cleans it up:: Table is ready.....

Konzen>   ::closes the window in the kitchen and steps aside::

 Hakkai>   Konzen.....I need a scalpel......a clean needle and threads.....

 Konzen>   Okay, no problem.... ::he holds out his hands and lets the needed things appear::

Kenren>  ::he gives Ko a knife and a bottle:: For your blood......and me and Goku will go now and see if we can find any yokai alive for the blood we need.....come Goku.....

 Homura>   ::he enters the bar again and closes the door behind himself::

Goku>   ::jumps on his feet:: Yep!

 Enjoji>  Welcome back......did everything work out?

Homura>   ::shrugs:: Guess so. He has found his brother. ::sits down next to Zenon::

 Hakkai>   ::he lifts up Jien and brings him into the kitchen:: You only come in if I call for any of you! ::he closes the door::

 Kogaiji>   ::looks after Hakkai, worried to death:: <w> Please.... ::he shakes his head and looks at the knife. Then he presses it against his wrist, cutting the flesh::

 Kenren>  Don't give too much blood, redhead......::he takes Goku's hand and leaves through a portal, reappearing in a small village::

 Gojyo>   ::he sits there, his whole body is shaking::

 Sanzo>   ::he takes something out of a board and comes back to Gojyo, giving him a small bottle:: Here, drink that. ::he lights up a cig and holds it out to Gojyo::

Zenon>   They really destroyed the whole place. Ugly....

 Goku>   ::looks at Kenren:: Where are we here?

 Konzen>   ::leaning in the door frame, he watches Gojyo::

Gojyo>   What is that? ::his hands are shaking so bad he has a problem to hold the bottle::

 Kenren>  In a village with a serious Yokai problem. Remember not to kill them, we need them alive for their blood....

 Sanzo>   ::he opens the bottle and puts it into Gojyo`s hands, holding them with his own:: Sake.

 Kogaiji>   ::he lowers his hand so that the blood from his wrist flows into the bottle::

 Goku>   ::nods:: Okay. ::he looks around:: There are some. ::points::

Gojyo>   ::he lifts the bottle and drinks from it, only able to hold it because of Sanzo helping him::

 Hakuryu>   ::he sits next to Ko looking at him:: fee weeh....

 Sanzo>   ::lets him take a good sip, then he takes the bottle and places it on the table. He puts the cigarette between Gojyo`s lips:: Don`t worry. ::looks at him:: Hakkai knows what he does.

 Tenpo>   ::he looks at Konzen with a worried look on his face::

Konzen>   ::repeats the look::

 Kogaiji>   ::looks at Hakuryu:: He needs it....

 Gojyo>   Hakkai knows a fuck! You heard him.....he can't do much......::his breath goes so fast he is almost getting no air into his body::

 Kenren>  Yeah...let's get them.....::he smiles at Goku::

 Konzen>   ::he makes a sign to Tenpo to follow him and goes out of the room, heading for the bathroom::

 Sanzo>   ::he puts a hand on Gojyo`s chest:: Stop it, Gojyo!

 Enjoji>  Well....maybe we all should go to bed now.....it was a long day......::he smiles at Zenon::

Tenpo>   ::he follows Konzen:: What is it? ::he closes the door::

 Zenon>   Yeah, good idea. ::he stretches and stands up:: Good beer, by the way. ::grins at Enjoji::

 Konzen>   We have to calm him down or he`ll be the next one to collaps. ::searches for something in the boards::

Gojyo>   ::he leans to Sanzo, hiding his face on Sanzo's shoulder, a few tears rolling down his face::

 Goku>   Yea! ::he runs over to the yokai and before any of them can react, he has knocked three of them down::

 Tenpo>   We have nothing.....I did look before.....

 Kenren>  ::he grabs them and takes two bottles out of his pocket:: So, now you will bleed.......::he cuts out the wrist of the first of them::

 Sanzo>   ::he lays an arm around Gojyo and presses him against himself, letting his hands wander through his hair::

 Konzen>   Rats. Does this godforsaken town has no doctor???

 Hakuryu>   ::he pokes Ko to show him it is enough:: fee fee feeeeee

 Kogaiji>   ::he coughes hard:: I know.... ::he puts the bottle down and holds his wrist::

 Tenpo>   I don't know.......wait! The car Kenren stole! That was a doc's car.....

Hakuryu>   ::he holds up a bandage to Ko::

 Konzen>   Yes. Do you know where he got it?

 Tenpo>   No......

 Kogaiji>   ::smiles at the dragon:: Thank you. ::he starts to bandage his wrist tightly to stop the blood flow::

 Kenren>  ::he fills both bottles and smiles at Goku:: Okay......that should be enough........waste them.....

 Enjoji>  ::he takes Zenon's hand and walks upstairs with him::

 Goku>   ::looks at him:: Let`s just go back. I`m not in a killing mood today. ::he looks worried::

 Homura>   ::looks after them, then he stands up and goes up to his own room::

 Kenren>  Okay....::he opens the portal again and walks through, carrying the bottles::

Goku>   ::follows Kenren::

Kogaiji>   ::sitting on the couch, he watches Gojyo silently::

Tenpo>   ::follows Konzen::

 Kenren>  ::enters the living room and puts the bottles on the table, then he sits down on the second couch::

 Konzen>   ::leans against the wall in the floor, right next to the kitchen door:: <w> Do you think Hakkai can do something?

 Tenpo>   I think he can do it.......I know he is a doctor.....he studied that.....

 Goku>   ::he sits down next to Gojyo and hugs him::

Gojyo>   ::calmly crying on Sanzo's shoulder, his heart full of fear, the fear of losing the only one who ever cared about him::

 Sanzo>   ::he continues on stroking over Gojyo`s hair, holding him::

 Hakkai>   ::he opens the door a bit:: Kenren, could you give me the blood?? ::he closes the door again::

 Kenren>  ::he stands up and takes the bottles, then he walks into the kitchen::

 Kogaiji>   ::he looks at the closed door, his face a mask of pain and guilt::

Konzen>   ::nods:: <w> Let`s hope so.....

Tenpo>   ::he sits down next to Ko and hugs him:: Hey....he will make it.....

 Kenren>  ::he comes out of the kitchen, looking very pale now::

 Kogaiji>   ::looks down:: <w> That`s all my fault..... I told him to bring Yaone and Lilin out...... through the dungeons.... but they were already there... ::he buries his face in his hands::

 Tenpo>   Hush now.....::he holds him close::

 Konzen>   ::looks at Kenren::

Kenren>  <w> Don't ask.....I'm a soldier.....but that is.....

 Konzen>   ::nods:: <w> I won`t ask.....

 Goku>   ::stands up and walks over to the window, absolutely not knowing what to do in that situation::

Hakkai>   ::he comes out of the kitchen, looking like he had slaughtered somebody, hands, face and clothes covered in blood:: Konzen.....he needs a bed.......

 Konzen>   ::nods:: Let`s bring him upstairs. I can sleep with Kenren.

 Kogaiji>   ::looks at Hakkai::

Hakkai>   Kenren, could you carry him? And be careful not to move him too fast......::he sits down on a chair in the living room, exhausted::

 Konzen>   I`ll clean the kitchen.......

 Kenren>  ::he goes into the kitchen and carefully carries Jien into the bedroom::

 Goku>   ::he grabs a towel from the chair and gives it to Hakkai::

 Gojyo>   ::he looks at Hakkai:: What is with my brother....

 Konzen>   ::he cleans the kitchen from the blood with his powers and comes back to the others::

 Kogaiji>   ::the same question in his eyes, he fixes Hakkai::

Hakkai>   ::he cleans his face off the blood:: He is alive.....I have stopped the bleedings....but I don't know if he will wake up again.......

 Gojyo>   ::he falls back onto the couch, feeling a bit of relief...::

 Kenren>  ::he comes back down and takes his place on the couch::

 Sanzo>   ::pads Gojyo`s arm and lights up a cig::

 Kogaiji>   ::he looks down, taking a deep breath::

Konzen>   ::sits down next to Kenren:: There`s something that just came to my mind....

 Kenren>  And what? ::careesing his hips::

 Goku>   ::pads on his lap to make Hakuryu come to him, his dog laying in a corner of the room, sleeping::

 Hakuryu>   ::he lays down on Goku's lap::

 Konzen>   We couldn`t heal such wounds, it`s not in our might. But Homura could. He has very strong healing powers....

 Goku>   ::starts petting the dragon::

Kenren>  That asshole! He was with them! Why didn't he help them????

 Kogaiji>   Why should he? ::shakes his head:: Why should that guy do anything for anybody?

 Gojyo>   ::his voice is very weak:: Can I see him?

Hakkai>   Yes....but only you....and don't break down again, okay?

 Sanzo>   ::looks at Gojyo:: Do it slowly.

Kenren>  What a bastard! They should have kept him in that prison forever!

Konzen>   ::looks at Kenren and sighs:: Come to think, maybe that´s the reason why he is that way......

 Kenren>  Maybe..........

 Goku>   I doubt that being imprisoned is a good excuse for being an asshole...... ::continues petting Hakuryu::

 Gojyo>   ::he stands up and goes to Konzen's room, sitting down next to his brother, taking his hand::

 Kogaiji>   ::he coughes again, spitting out a bit of blood in his hand::

 Jien>   ::is still unconscious, but his breath goes normal now::

Hakkai>   You need rest, Kogaiji.....you still have some bad bruises.........

 Tenpo>   Hey, Goku, will you come with me see if we can find a pharmacy?

 Kogaiji>   ::shakes his head:: I`m fine. I´m just worried about Doku......

 Goku>   Sure, but I don`t think will find one open at this time. ::he stands up, Hakuryu on his arm::

Hakkai>   Kogaiji, I'm the docter here, please, sleep some more.........

 Konzen>   ::frowns at Ko:: Who?

 Kogaiji>   ::nods:: Okay... ::looks at Konzen:: Jien. He changed his name after.... well.... I guess you know the story from his brother... ::he lays back down, again coughing hard::

Gojyo>   ::he softly caresses his brother's face:: I would never have forgiven myself if you would have died, Jien. There are so many things I still have to tell you......I thank you so much, I owe my life to you. I miss you so much. All the times we met we only fought and never were able to talk. Hell, you were always there for me...you protected me...you played with me......

 Konzen>   ::nods:: I know nothing, but it`s not important right now. You need rest. ::he stands up:: We should move to the kitchen, then he has a bit silence.

 Tenpo>   ::he takes his coat and smiles at Goku:: I'm sure we will find one.....

 Hakkai>   I need a shower......I'm covered in blood.......

 Goku>   Okay then. Hakkai, I`ll take Hakuryu along if you don`t mind. ::nods his head to the dragon on his arm::

 Kenren>  ::he stands up and steps behind Konzen::

 Kogaiji>   ::crawls under the blanket and closes his eyes. Still exhausted, he`s also very tired::

 Hakuryu>   fee feeeee

Hakkai>   Okay, Goku.....::he stands up and heads for the bathroom::

 Sanzo>   ::he stands up and walks over to the kitchen, plopping down on a chair::

 Jien>   ::his eyelids flatter and he makes a soft noise::

Gojyo>   ::he holds the hand and still softly touches his face:: Oh Jien.....what happened to you?

 Kogaiji>   ::quickly falls asleep::

 Goku>   ::follows Tenpo:: But Ten-chan, where shall we go?

 Jien>   ::he slowly opens his eyes, looking at his younger brother. His voice is very low and weak:: <w>...where..?

 Konzen>   ::he enters the kitchen and starts the coffee machine: Hell, what a day....

 Sanzo>   ::he suddenly stands up and leaves the kitchen without a word::

Gojyo>   Shh, don't speak. You are save now, Jien. I'm here.....don't move you are hurt.....Kogaiji is here, too....he is okay......

 Kenren>  Yeah! ::he wants to sit down on a chair but he misses it and falls to the floor::

 Jien>   ::he takes some deep breathes, it costs him a lot to keep his eyes open:: <w>...where... lilin....ya...one...

 Gojyo>   Shh.....we don't know, but they where not in the dungeons.....

Konzen>   Oh Ken.... ::he smiles and helps him up again:: Poor darling. ::hugs him::

 Hakkai>   ::he undresses and steps in the shower. The water turns red from the blood. ::

 Kenren>  Why always me???

 Sanzo>   ::he is suddenly standing in the bathroom, leaning against the closed door, his arms crossed before his chest:: We have to talk!

 Tenpo>   Well, I think there must be one in the hotel......::he takes Goku's hand and starts walking with him::

 Jien>   ::he nods weakly, closing his eyes again::

 Hakkai>   ::he turns around and stares at Sanzo:: What are you doing here?

 Goku>   Yes, let`s just hope it`s still open.... ::walks with Tenpo, keeping Hakuryu on his arm::

Konzen>   ::kisses him:: You`re fate`s most favourite victim. ::looks at the coffee machine:: Anybody coffee?

 Sanzo>   ::answers the most obvious:: Standing.

 Gojyo>   ::tears are running down his face, but he smiles, carressing the face of his older brother holding his hand:: Sleep now, Jien....you need rest to heal....This time I had to take care of you, because it was you who fell down.....

 Kenren>  Anybody? We are alone, Konzen......

 Jien>   ::still hearing him, a smile comes to his face, then he falls asleep again::

 Konzen>   Aw yes. ::frowns:: Where is Sanzo?

Tenpo>   Oh, it will, or we will make it open....::he smiles::

 Kenren>  Dunno.....::he sits down:: he left.....

 Hakkai>   What do you want? ::the blood in his hair is now running through his face an over his body::

 Konzen>   Strange ::shrugs:: Well, he won`t get lost. ::he puts two cups on the table and fills them with coffee. Ignoring the free chairs around, he sits down on Kenren`s lap::

 Kenren>  ::he hugs his lover and kisses him::

Sanzo>   Talk with you... ::he sighs, his voice suddenly much softer:: See Hakkai, I didn`t want to hurt or insult you in any way.

Hakkai>   You left me behind. That was all. You just did what you always do......::he continues to wash himself::

 Konzen>   ::he repeats the kiss, letting his hand wander through Kenren`s hair::

 Sanzo>   But that`s not what I wanted to do. It`s just... aw.... ::he sighs:: ... damn, you see it? That`s that shit with you. Everytime I try to talk to you, about the feelings I got for you, everytime I make a stupid mistake and you push me back... ::he looks away::

Hakkai>   ::he suddenly looks at Sanzo with a strange look in his eyes:: What do you want Sanzo? Do you want the truth? Yes, you always say something stupid! I'm in love with you and you always act like a jerk!

 Tenpo>   Here we are.....::he stands in front of the hotel::

 Gojyo>   You always were so strong.....you will make it......::he just looks at his brother::

 Sanzo>   ::instead of getting angry, he only looks at Hakkai with sad eyes:: I know.... you shouldn`t waste your feelings on me, Hakkai. Im not worth it. I`m not even able to show my feelings to somebody I love. Not even... <w>... to you..... ::looks down::

 Goku>   ::he hides the dragon under his jacket:: Then come on. ::pulling on Tenpo`s hand, he enters the hotel lobby::

Hakkai>   ::he comes out of the shower, wet and softly touches Sanzo's face:: It is okay.......

 Sanzo>   ::looks at him:: I... I will only make you sad... Hakkai, I don`t want you to be sad....

 Tenpo>   Well, here is nobody......damned.....well, Goku, you keep your eyes open and I get what we need, okay?

 Goku>   ::nods:: Okay. ::he jumps on the counter:: I`ll wait here. ::lets out Hakuryu again::

 Hakkai>   Nothing you can say will change the way I feel, Sanzo. And you know that.....

Sanzo>   I know I`ll spoil it, but... ::he softly touches Hakkai`s wet chest:: ...but if you give me the chance... I want to try it.... ::looks at him with those icy violet eyes::

 Tenpo>   ::he disappears and reappears inside the pharmacy, taking what he thinks they could need::

Hakkai>   I give you the chance if you want me....::he shivers a bit from the touch and looks into Sanzo's eyes, being so close to him like never before::

 Goku>   ::looking around in the lobby:: Hey Hakuryu, did you know that Hakkai is a doctor?

 Sanzo>   <w> More than anything else I want you. ::he comes closer only a bit and places a very soft kiss on Hakkai`s lips::

 Hakuryu>   ::he flies in front of Goku and nods::

 Hakkai>   ::he puts his arms around Sanzo's neck and pulls him close, returning the kiss::

 Goku>   Really? Hmm, I didn`t know. But that`s good to know. ::he pets the dragon while he`s flying::

Kenren>  ::his hands caress Konzen's hips::

Sanzo>   ::he lays his arms around Hakkai`s wet body, holding him close::

Konzen>   :smiles at him:: Are you thinking naughty thoughts again? What a bad boy. ::he stands up, grabs another cup and fills it:: I`ll be back in a moment. Guess Gojyo could also need one.

 Gojyo>   ::he holds his brother's hand and leans back to the wall, closing his eyes, falling into a light sleep::

 Kogaiji>   ::slowly waking up again, he holds his aching head::

Kenren>  Hey....stay with me and my dirty thoughts!

 Konzen>   Only a moment. Then I`m all yours. ::he leaves the kitchen and walks upstairs. In front of his room, he stops and knocks the door gently::

 Hakkai>   ::he closes his eyes, feeling so good now. Sanzo's warm body feels good to his body, he does not even think about the fact that he is naked::

Sanzo>   ::he kisses Hakkai`s forehead and looks at him:: You should finish your shower. ::a bit of the blood that was left on Hakkai is now soaking into Sanzo`s robe::

Hakkai>   I'm sorry......::he smiles at Sanzo::

 Tenpo>   ::he returns to Goku:: So I have what we can need.....

 Sanzo>   ::shakes his head:: No problem. Let me wash your back.

Konzen>   ::getting no response, he slowly opens the door:: <w> Gojyo?

 Hakkai>   Okay....::he steps back under the shower::

 Gojyo>   ::sitting there, holding Jien's hand, he wakes up:: Ye...yes?

 Goku>   ::looks at the stuff in Tenpo`s hands:: And what is all that? ::jumps off the counter::

 Sanzo>   ::he puts down the robe to his waist and starts taking of his "gloves"::

 Konzen>   <w> Oh sorry, I didn`t know you were sleeping. I got coffee here, if you want some.

Tenpo>   Well, painkiller, something to stop infections.....

Goku>   Looks weird. ::shrugs:: I guess I`m happy I´ve never been ill.

Gojyo>   Yes, thank you very much, Konzen. And thank you that my brother can have your bed......::he takes the cup, feeling the terrible urge to smoke, but not here with his brother::

 Sanzo>   ::he grabs the tube of shower lotion and puts some of it on Hakkai`s back. Wetting his hands a bit, he then starts to massage Hakkai with gently, but strong hands::

 Konzen>   <w> No problem. ::looks at the sleeping yokai:: How is he?

 Hakkai>   ::he relaxes in Sanzo's hands, feeling good now that all pressure is taken off of him for a moment::

Tenpo>   Well, you are a lucky one.....now let's go back.....::he smiles at Goku and pets his head::

 Goku>   Yep. Come, Hakuryu.

 Gojyo>   Well, he woke up.....and only asked about his friends, then he fell asleep again......::he drinks some coffee::

 Kogaiji>   ::he turns a bit on the couch, trying to find a position that doesn`t hurt, but without success. He sits up, pulling the blanket closer and looks at his hands. Thinking about what happened he balls his hands to fists, cutting into the palm with his long nails::

 Kenren>  ::he comes to the living room and holds out a glass of water and two pills to Ko:: Here.....

 Konzen>   ::nods:: <w> He will be okay. Yokai are hard to kill. Especially your stubborn family. ::he smiles at Gojyo:: <w> I`ll leave you now. Just tell me if you need something.

 Sanzo>   ::enjoying it to feel Hakkai hard muscles soften under his hands, he continues:: You like it....?

 Gojyo>   Konzen.....could you stay here for a moment? I need a cig....I'll be right in front of the door if anything happens.....

Kogaiji>   ::looks at him and shakes his head:: No, thanks....

 Konzen>   Sure. Don`t worry, okay? Take your time, I´ll stay.

 Hakkai>   Oh yes.....that feels so good.......::he leans into Sanzo's touch, closing his eyes::

 Kenren>  Take it....there is no reason to hurt yourself. ::he puts pills and glass at the table and goes back to the kitchen::

 Sanzo>   ::continuing with one hand, the other one grabs the lotion again and he pours a bit onto Hakkai`s stomach. Then he starts to massage him there as well:: And now...?

 Gojyo>   ::he stands up, looks at his brother and walks out the door, lighting a cig::

 Hakkai>   ::he softly moans from the touch:: Oh yes.....

 Konzen>   ::he sits down on the chair, looking at the sleeping yokai:: <w> You are lucky to have a brother like him, hope you know that....

Kogaiji>   ::grabs the glass and takes a sip, looking at the pills, he shakes his head:: It wouldn`t help at all...... ::he lays back down::

 Gojyo>   ::he smokes his cig, feeling better now::

Nataku>   ::he comes down and looks at Ko on the couch:: Hello....

 Kogaiji>   Hi..... ::smiles at the boy::

 Nataku>   Why are you so sad? ::he sits down on the couch::

 Sanzo>   ::he finishes with washing Hakkai`s belly and back and takes a step back:: If I continue I`ll rip off your skin... ::gives him one of his rare smiles, kinda mocking::

Hakkai>   Yes....but now I am cleaned.....::he steps out of the shower:: Can you give me a towel?

 Kogaiji>   And why are you still up? It`s sleeping time for people your age. ::he looks at the boy::
