The next morning they headed off to see if they could find Tsukiyo anywhere instead of heading west they went North into a "much ominous looking forest" that was beside the village. Well, acording to Gojyo, who had recieved a wack with the paper fan for the comment, it was ominous. What they didn't know was that they were actually heading into the right forest but in the wrong direction. "Hey, Sanzo," Goku started to whine but was not cut off by the wack of a fan to the others amusement, "I think we are going the wrong way in the forest." "Why would you think that, Goku?" Hakkai asked. "Because the creapy tingaling feeling is comeing from that direction," Goku stated pointing a little to there right in the North east direction. Hakkai noded and they started to head that way all the while Sanzo reamained silent cigarette in mouth.
"They can't come this way, but if I do anything about it they will know there going the right way. What to do? What to do?" Tsukiyo said in a whining tone. "I want to play!" she agonized yanking at her hair, "but if I play I die." Tsukiyo crumpled to the floor crying, "and that nitwit can sence me so will it matter?" she continued in rage and clawed at her floor so that she pulled her hands closer to her full of dirt. "If they get to close - if they find out, I'll play! I'll play!"
"So, holy one, what was all that about yesterday? You seemed preaty atached to the monkey," Gojyo asked lagging behind Hakkai and Goku. Sanzo ignored him and lit up another cigarette. "Come on for once could you tell me.? My curiosity levels are willing to make a deal that I'll leave you alone once you tell me," Gojyo tried desperatly but Sanzo remained silent. "The fact that your still silent means something really did happen between you two and since you won't tell me I guess I'll leave it up to my imagination. Damn, Sanzo, I never knew your taste went that way though it does make everything else fit together," Gojyo said causeing a vein to pop forth from Sanzo's head and a click of a gun to be heard all to late. The sound of a gunshot caused birds to fly into the sky and Goku and Hakkai to turn around. "Sanzo! How could you?" Hakkai asked running to Gojyo who was on the ground clutching his shoulder, blood oozing through his fingers. "Be glad I didn't kill him," Sanzo said stomping ahead as Hakkai, after taking out the bullet, healed him.
Goku now wide eyed knelt down next to Gojyo. "Your wrong, not that way," Goku said then stood up quickly and headed to Sanzo's side. Then it hit Gojyo as he saw Goku running to Sanzo's side and made him feel somewhat stupid as he got up. Hakkai noticed the shocked expresion then asked. "I was close, but so far away. Sanzo does love the brat, always has right?" Gojyo asked Hakkai. Hakkai smiled, "Yes, but he's admited it to himself now. He loves him like his own son, not a lover Gojyo." Hakkai laughed when he noticed what Gojyo had thought and smiled a true smile shaking his head as they followed the two along.
"You told him?" Sanzo asked more a statment then a question. Goku grabbed Sanzo's robes and looked up at him with a questioning look asking if he shouldn't have. Sanzo said nothing and Goku took it as it was ok. "It's here," Goku said pointing to a tree. "Um that's a tree, saru. If it's bothering you I can cut it down would that make you feel better?" Gojyo asked in a teasing tone. "Please, do," Goku said seriously. "Jeez, fine," Gojyo said and was prepared to cut it down when he heard a yelp from behind him and turned around to see Goku clutching his chest in pain. If this was happening Goku must be right. He quickly went to cut down the tree when...
"Play, play, now I will," Tsukiyo said clutching the orb as tightly as she could and squeezing with all her might. "Break, crack, shatter, to dust, to pieces, to ashes, bust, bust," She sang manatically laughing in joy. "No you won't brake in here," She shouted in rage.
A shield stopped Gojyo's from cutting down the tree and Goku's screams grew louder as tears flowed down his face from his place on the ground. Cuts apeared on him and blood soaked the ground.
Cracks apeared on the orb in Tsukiyo's hands. "Yes! Break, break, I have no more use for you now." Her eyes glitered in delight and the gem on her kneck glowed.
Crows flew to where the Sanzo-ikkou were, there eyes glowing purple. Other animals such as wolves and bears joined in to stop them from breaking down the tree. Sanzo began to chant as the same creature that had attacked them before came into sight. He chanted repidly then let it loose on the creature who had already snatched up Gojyo. "Maten Tenjou!" The dark blob let go of Gojyo and and shattered to peices and Gojyo fell to the ground without so much as a yell when he hit the ground even though a crack was heard. Hakkai rushed to Gojyo's pale body and noticed he was still breathing but needed serious medical attention.
Sanzo finished off all of the animals easily with his gun. Sanzo and Hakkai turned to the barrier and wondered how they would go about getting it down when they heard shuffling sounds and grunts from behind them. They turned to see a still bleeding and sweating Goku. Goku was taking in large amouts of air and trying his best to ignore the pain but tears still streamed down his face. His eyes were blank and unfocusted. His sight blurred to the extent were he could be called blind for he could not see things clear enough to be able to tell what they were. He strugled pulling himself to the shield which he could sence and fell, leaning himself against the very wall. 'That's my power, so I can still use it," Goku thought as he felt hands suporting him and pulling him away from the wall. Goku consentrated on the wall and reached his hand out. This time he felt no wall only resistence.
It was a sight to see as Hakkai and Sanzo watched Goku drag himself to the shield leaving a trail of blood behind him. Then colapsing on the wall. Sanzo held Goku up as Hakkai tried to heal Goku but failed to do so as every time he healed a wound it only reopened. Goku reached out his hand to the wall and the wall bent inward at contact and wrinkled like plastic wrap being strained inwards at it's center. Sanzo understood and walked foward. The wall streched and streched till Goku reached the tree and touched it's bark. The sheild ripeed at the poit it had been bent and the rest shattered like glass. A single crow flying from the tree hole. Sanzo shot itand it fell to the ground. Transforming into Tsukiyo who was clutching the orb still trying to brake it but failing as pulse waves emited from the orb.
"You ruined my fun!" she shouted standing up and dodging Sanzo's next bullet. Her left hand sunk into the orb and pulled out what looked like a glowing cloud like aura. She squeezed it and squized the orb. The orb which had been refuseing to shatter did so and the other thing which was Goku's soul rithered around in her hands refusing to break. Goku screeemed louder and his soul wrapped itself around her binding her where she stood. Sanzo took this chance to shoot her and she shattered leaving only Goku's soul to return to his body. This time Hakkai successfully closed Goku's wounds. And they proceeded back to the inn to get a doctor for both Gojyo and Goku. Behind them glinted a small neckalce that was glowing purple before it flickered and died out.
AN: I will be continueing this story in a sequal. I am sorry that I did not continue it sooner but with file issues followed by some other problems in my life I have been doing a very poor job of typing up sotries I have written as well as finishing ones I have started. I AM working on it and with any luck you can expect to see more stories under my profile as well as this one complete within this school year.
