"Curse or God Sent" Chapter 1
'Let The Journey Begin'


“At last we have arrived at a village, I thought the desert was never going to end,” the red head stretched his long legs from the jeep and set his feet firmly on the dusty ground. He then stretched his whole body and let out a small groan.

“Woohoo!” a genki boy shouted as he jumped out of the jeep. “I smell food!” In excitement he started to run towards the village but only to realize that he was being held back from someone holding onto his cape.

“Huh?” The confused boy turned around to see why he was not dashing off.

“Where do you think your going dumb monkey?” Gojyo looked at him and raised his brow.

But his attention became divided, a smirk appeared on his face and his head tilted to the side, almost as if he was looking past Goku, which he was. Goku tugged at his cape, struggling to get Gojyo to let go of it.

“What are you looking at water-sprout?” The short boy turned in the direction which the crimson head man was gazing at. Gojyo fell into a dream-like state. The wind stirred through his hair and the sun brightened the pretty girl’s features… Well to him the sun brightened her features.

Goku interrupted Gojyo trance “That’s all you are looking at, a girl dressed in a skimpy blue dress and I th-”

Gojyo eyes welled up with fury, his blood started to boil from the remark Goku had said to him. “She is not skimpy!” the blazing red head screeched at him.

“You would not know a nice girl if she slapped you in the face,” Gojyo turned around and poked his nose in the air and put his hand on his hip like he was a posh stuck up woman.

“Would you two stop you’re bickering,” A deep voice approached them.

“You sound like a married couple,” Goku and Gojyo froze, their faces whitened and a sweat drop appeared on the side of their features. The stylish monk, dressed in his cream robes and boots walked passed them as if they did not exist.

Moments after the little monkey-like boy snapped out of it.

“WHAT! I’M MARRIED TO A WATER-SPROUT!” Goku bellowed as Sanzo crossed onto the village grounds. The short brown haired boy carried on his constant muttering to himself as he walked into the village.

While the party lingered in the village, the guys came across a food stand. Goku’s eyes widened, his face was full of glee and red marks started to appear on his cheeks. He started floating around the members of the group almost like he was swimming.

“Dear food, I thought I would never see you again.” *WHACK* A white fan appeared from nowhere and smacked him round the head.

“What the hell was that for?” Goku stressfully turned around and cried to Sanzo, he was stroking his head because of the pain but only to realize when he opened his eyes a gun was being pointed at his head.

The monk gave his short reply of ‘tch,’ and walked off.

“This monk has too many mood swings, he needs to get a girl,” *WHACK* again with the white fan.

“If I hear that from you again, I will shoot your balls off, you got that,” the monk responded in a quite but angry voice. He spun around allowing his robes to flow behind him.

“Goku are you done, let’s go,” Sanzo’s sturdy voice called out. Goku gathered his food; stuffing something in his mouth before he filled his arms with all kinds of grub.

“Err… Sanzo,” a soft voice called out from beside him. Sanzo looked in the direction of the voice and stared at the face.

“Where should we stay for the night?” Hakkai stood there with his arms folded waiting for a response.

“There,” The pessimistic monk pointed in the direction of an Inn.

“And if any of you has a problem, don’t tell me,” Sanzo had to add his little line in at the end. Goku gulped down his meatbun and stood flabbergasted.

“But Sanz-” His speech was intruded by Gojyo, who was standing in front of him, he noticed that the taboo man was in grief.

“Hey, Gojyo?” The concerned Goku tried to wake him up by shaking him, but it did not work.

Gojyo fell to his knees; it was too much shock for him. He placed his hands firmly in the dirt and dug into it. Gojyo’s breathing became heavy, sweat started dripping from his face. He could not even respond; he felt like he was being torn apart. His blood red eyes filled with disbelief, he could not believe what he had just seen.

“Gojyo?” Hakkai put his hand on Gojyo shoulder and clenched onto it hard attempting to bring him from his shock, but it did not work. “Ar-re,” Hakkai sighed.

“Here let me have a try, stupid pervert,” Sanzo tone of voice became annoyed, he turned around and pointed a gun at his head; again it was a no go. Gojyo did not even twitch. He had been traumatized and no-one could pull him out of it.

He sat there, staring at the light brown dirt that was lying before his eyes. He slowly raised his arm up like an old corpse and pointed at a sign that stood ahead of them. All the guys’ turned in the direction which he was indicating at. A sweat drop appeared on each of their face along with a smirk.

“It’s not a big deal Gojyo,” Goku was trying to hold back his mirth.

“We are only going to be here for a night,” Goku could not hold it in any longer, he burst into laughter and fell on the ground. He was rolling around in so much hysteria that his stomach began to cramp up from it.

“How dare you…” The irritated Gojyo got to his feet. “Have you not read what it says?” He questioned Goku in a quiet voice.

“Yes we all have seen it,” The calm Hakkai let out his words and chuckled.

“It only says- ‘If anyone attempts to touch a girl for their own pleasure, their privates will be removed.’ I think that was clear enough,” Hakkai stood there pointing at the notice. Sanzo observed Gojyo fall to the ground yet again and cup his hands over his face.

“It’s not the end of the world, let’s go,” The heartless monk said in his deep voice and walked off in the direction of the Inn. Hakkai and Goku followed, they were still trying to hold back their amusement and keep a straight face at the same time.

“How can they call this a village?” Gojyo cried out and punched his fist into the ground all he knew was that he was in for a long night of love prohibition. He sat there in the middle of the village walkway.


“I only have one night, just one night, but will I be able to survive?” Gojyo whispers to himself getting up from the ground dusting himself off looking around.

“I can do this I am in control and I can do this.” Gojyo gathers himself up and starts walking toward the Inn. Gojyo slowly opens the door walking in as his eyes meet with an attractive dark haired young women, she starts walking toward him. He loses his composer then dashes in behind Sanzo.

“What are you doing you stupid water sprout?” Sanzo barks at him.

“Save me…” Gojyo tells him.

“She is leaving Gojyo… Not coming after you. You pervert… Not every woman that lives wants you, you know.” Goku says as the young woman walks out the door.

“Not even the ones that are dead want him, what are you talking about Goku.” Sanzo says. Hakkai and Goku fight back their laughter with Sanzo’s comment.

“HAHA, laugh it up! Gojyo exclaims.

Just then, another attractive young women with blonde hair comes running down the stairs, “Where did she go?” She says at a low whisper talking to herself. She looks around as her eyes meet with Hakkai’s, Goku’s and Gojyo’s. She smiles at them as she walks toward the door.

“How would we know we are not her babysitters.” Sanzo says in his cold deep tone of voice as he signs them into the Inn then looking up at her.

The young girl stops walking with hearing what he said, she turns walking back toward them she stops right in front of Sanzo and smiles looking right into Sanzo’s eyes saying, “If I want any information from you…” She picks up the beads around his neck “I will jerk on your prayer beads next time.” She then drops them back down to his chest as she turns walking away.

Sanzo steps quickly in her direction as the guys grab him stopping him. The young women turns back around hearing the commotion the look on Sanzo’s face was priceless, “I’ll kill her…” Sanzo growls under his breath, the others smile at her as she walks from the Inn to find her friend.


Meanwhile when the guys are up in there room, “I cannot believe I have to be in the same room as monkey boy here.” Gojyo grumbles as he paces the floor with his hands in his pockets.

“This is all they had left, be glad we got this or we would be sleeping in desert again.” Hakkai says.

“I’m hungry…” Goku wines, Sanzo shoots a dirty look at him, “Well I am!!” Goku wines louder.

“I wonder who those girl’s were that were in the lobby earlier.” Gojyo says.

“I am not sure, but they do not look like they are from around here.” Hakkai replies. Gojyo is looking out the window as he turns with a big smile on his face,

“So if they are not from around here the rule would not apply to them, Right?” Gojyo says with a devilish grin.

“I’m HUNGRY!” Goku says holding his stomach rolling around on his bed.

“If I see that bitch again she is mine!” Sanzo says as she glares at Goku.

“Now your thinking in the right frame of mind Sanzo.” Gojyo says to him with a slight laugh.

Sanzo looks up at Gojyo giving him a dirty look, “That is not what I want her for you stupid water sprout. I own her for her smartass comment in the lobby.”

“Well Sanzo you cannot blame her you did bring it on yourself with your comment. She was not talking to us, but to herself.” Hakkai tells him.

“Then she should have not spoken so loudly for me to hear her.” Sanzo says.

“So loudly! I barely heard what she said.” Hakkai replies.

“Well I heard it like she was standing right next to me.” Sanzo says.

“I’M SO HUNGRY!!” Goku exclaims.

“HOW CAN YOU BE HUNGRY, what happen to all that food you had not long ago?” Sanzo asks Goku.

“I ate it…” Goku tells him. Sanzo and the others look at Goku, Hakkai and Gojyo laugh as Sanzo becomes very irritated.

“You ate all that food already?!” Sanzo exclaims.

“Yeah I was hungry.” Goku tells him adding. “It was not that much.”

“Stupid monkey…” Sanzo replies. The others laugh as Sanzo becomes more irritated with Goku and his wining for food.

“I have to say I am starting to become hungry myself.” Hakkai states,

“Every one of you knowingly gets on my nerves. I should shoot you all and get you out of my hair.” Sanzo says as he stands up from his seat.

“ARE WE GOING TO GET FOOD!!” Goku exclaims as he springs from his bed seeing Sanzo stand up.

Sanzo looks at all of them as he reaches for the door handle, “If any of you get out of line and embarrasses me I will kill you on the spot, Got it!!” Sanzo tells them.

“GOT IT!!” Goku says as he stands there in front of him, “Now let’s go get FOOD!!” Goku exclaims.

Sanzo touches the brow of his head and rubs it, “What did I do to deserve this.”

As they leave their room and start to the near by restaurant, the two young woman they had the pleasures or displeasures of meeting earlier in the lobby of the Inn was sitting waiting on their dinner in the same restaurant they were headed to.

“Did I tell you I had the pleasure of meeting the Monk in the same Inn we are staying in?” The blonde told her friend in a highly sarcastic tone.

“Boy you sound happy about that meeting.” The Dark haired girl told her. The blonde looks at her with a scorned look.

“He was an ass Laney… I thought Monks were suppose be nice and spiritual and all that junk… and ugly. The only thing spiritual about him was his outfit that told you he was a Monk and he was good looking.” The blonde told Laney.

“Nori… I think this Monk got to you.” Laney says.

“YEAH!! He got to me alright… Him and his smartass comment. As I was walking out of the lobby his friends had to hold him back he said he was ‘Going to kill me’.” Nori told Laney.

“HE SAID WHAT?! Ok stop right there what did you say to him to make him say this.” Laney asks her.

“Nothing,” Nori says as she leans back in her chair.

“Yeah and I am to believe that this Monk said he was going to kill you and you did nothing… I know you better then that Nori you’re a smartass.” Laney tells her.

“I did not say anything to him until he made a smartass comment to me first.” Nori replies.

“AHHH… Now the truth comes out.” Laney says laughing.

“WHAT!! He started it.” Nori exclaims.

Laney shakes her head, “Nori starting a fight with a Monk you should be ashamed of yourself.”

“HEY!! He was not NO ordinary Monk I do not care what you say.” Nori says with a touch of detest.

“Well what did you say?” Laney asks her.

“Well I came running down the stairs after you left the room looking for you and like I always I talk to myself asking ‘Where did she go’…”

Laney added “Aloud…”

“Yes ALOUD! Well he made the comment that ‘He did not know they were not your babysitters.’ So I walked back over to him and told him ‘If I want any information from you…’ and I picked up the beads around his neck and finished saying ‘I will jerk on your prayer beads next time.’ I dropped them back to his chest and walked away from him.” Nori told her.

Laney dropped her head placing her hands to her forehead chuckling slightly, “I cannot believe you Nori.”

“WHAT! He was being an Ass I was not talking to him; he did not have to say that to me or even say it.” Nori barked.

Just then, Nori heard the door she looks up as she heard someone say, “FOOD SWEET, SWEET FOOD!!” The 4 guys from the Inn walk in.

“It’s him…” Nori says as she looks over toward at them from her seat as she sees Sanzo walk in the door.

“That’s him?!” Laney says.

“Yep that’s the asshole Monk.” Nori says, she could not take her eyes from the group as they walked in and took their seats. Laney watched them as well as they went and sat down. Their stare on the guys was broke as the waiter walking up to their table with their food.


“Hey Sanzo.” Goku says.

“What,” was Sanzo’s only reply.

“Isn’t that the girl from the Inn over there?” Goku asks him.

Sanzo grumbles as he looks up from his menu and looks across the room where Goku was pointing. Hakkai turns and looks as well,

“Sanzo… Sanzo!! Stop Sanzo!!” Hakkai exclaims as he jumps from his seat to chase after him.

“You know you are a real BIT-” Sanzo’s words were cut short as Hakkai jerks him away from the table side. Pushing him back to their table.

“Sorry ladies,” Hakkai says smiling at them.

“Hakkai stop this now!” Sanzo yells at him.

“No you stop this, Sanzo leave that women alone she did not mean anything by what she said. She was only getting back at you for saying what you said to her.” Hakkai told him setting him down in his seat. Through the whole dinner Sanzo could not take his eyes from where they were sitting, Nori not doing much better as they both exchanged dirty looks back a forth to one another.

“Nori… Nori… NORI!!” Laney called to her.

“What,” Nori replied looking at Laney.

“Will you stop this; you have not taken your eyes from him since he came in.” Laney says.

“Like he is doing any better,” Nori looks back at Sanzo his gaze is still locked on her, she contains talking while looking at Sanzo, “He is staring back,” Nori quickly looks back at Laney, “And did you hear what he called me when he came up to the table?”

“You have a problem with that? I call you a bitch all the time.” Laney tells her.

“Well that is different you have known me longer, he does not know me at all.” Nori says looking back at Sanzo.

“Nori we have come a long way for this you better not go messing it up because you do get along with one of them. Just remember what we are here for and keep focused on that.” Noir looks at Laney and nods.

“Come on let’s go, I can plainly see he is driving you crazy, and as we all know your crazy enough.” Laney tells her.

“HEY!!” Nori exclaims.

“I am going to pay the bill get ready to go.” Laney tells her.

“I have to go to the bathroom I will meet you outside.” Nori tells Laney.

“Fine but if you’re not out there in five minutes, I will be kicking your butt… He won’t have to.” Laney says.

“What ever… like you could kick my butt!” Nori tells her laughing, getting up from her seat and walking toward the guys table. Nori checks out each one of them as she walks by. Her eyes only meeting with Sanzo’s as they glare at one another.

After a few minutes of Nori walking by their table Sanzo gets up from his seat.

“Where are you going Sanzo?” Goku asks him.

“Do you have to know everything you stupid monkey?” Sanzo replies.

“EH… I guess not…” Goku replies.

“Good…” Sanzo walks way from the table back to the bathrooms as well. Hakkai turns around seeing the girls are gone and starts to relax a little.

“What’s up Hakkai?” Gojyo asks him.

“Sanzo really has it out for that one girl; he has me worried with it.” Hakkai tells him.

Gojyo laughs under his breath, “Well if you ask me what she did was very ballsy of her. Not to mention funny as hell. Did you see the look on Sanzo’s face,” Gojyo mocks Nori and what she told Sanzo, “If I want information from you, I will jerk on you prayer beads next time.” Gojyo and Hakkai start to laugh.

“It was funny, I could not believe she did it, I have never seen a woman that was that brave to walk up to a man they do not know and say such a thing.” Hakkai replies.

“Well she definitely put him in his place. She is one chick with a bad attitude.” Gojyo says.

“Let me guess Gojyo just your type of women, Right?” Hakkai says laughing.

“Maybe…” Gojyo says crossing his arms over his chest as he sits back in his chair.

Hakkai laughs at him and his cockiness, “She might be more women then you can handle Gojyo. You might want to steer clear of her you might find yourself getting hurt.”

“Hey a little pain is good sometimes.” Gojyo says smiling.

“You’re a pervert…” Goku tells him.

“Listen monkey boy when you grow up and become a man you will understand this better, so just stay out of it for now.” Gojyo tells Goku.

“What is taking Sanzo so long?” Goku says.

“He will be out when he is done calm down monkey boy.” Gojyo replies.

“STOP CALLING ME MONKEY BOY YOU STUPID WATER SPROUT!!” Goku yells at Gojyo coming cross the table at him.

“You two need to stop…” Hakkai says trying to pull them apart from across the table.


Meanwhile Nori is walking from the bathroom when she walks right out into Sanzo standing there waiting for her to come out. Sanzo goes to grab Nori by her arms as she ducks under him and gets behind him. She kicks Sanzo in his butt pushing him into the wall. Nori reaches for one of her throwing daggers hidden in her belt as Sanzo spins around pointing his gun straight it her forehead. Nori smiles at him and starts to laugh.

“What are you laughing at?” Sanzo says spitefully. Nori taps his side with the blade of her dagger.

“Go ahead pull the trigger, but I grantee you will not walk away unscarred by this you may not even walk away. With were I have the point of my blade, one little thrust the blade goes in and when you pull the blade out you bleed to death.” Nori smiles at him with a cold heartless smile as she pushes the blade toward Sanzo cutting his clothing so he slightly feels the point of her blade on his skin. Sanzo growls under his breath as he lowers his gun.

“Good boy…” Nori tells him stepping closer to him as she pats his cheek with her other hand still holding her blade close to his body. “Now if you like your life you will back off and I will not kill you…” Sanzo pushes his gun into her ribcage by her statement. Nori starts to put more pressure on Sanzo’s side with her dagger. Sanzo cringes as the blade of her dagger cuts him slightly puncturing the skin.

“We can stand here all night and see who is going to kill who first, or I can just get it over with now.”

Nori starts to slightly pushes her blade into Sanzo’s side has he screams. “YOU BITCH!!” He forces his gun deeper into her ribcage.

Nori leans closer to him and whispers into his ear, “Pull the trigger.” She pulls back from him and smiles her eyes cold and uncaring.

Sanzo looks at her saying “You’re a crazy Bitch.” He pulls the trigger on the gun at the same time he feels the blade of her dagger plunge deep into his side. He cringes in agony. The others run back toward the bathrooms looking to see what was going on.

While outside Laney was getting ready to walk back in to collect Nori, “Where are you going Laney?” Nori asks her.

“Where did you come from?” Laney asks.

“Well last time I checked I came from my father and mother.” Nori tells her nodding her head and smiling.

Laney shakes her head, “Smartass…” Nori laughs grabbing Laney’s hand,

“Come on we need our sleep. We’re getting up bright and early to take care of things, Right?” Nori says pulling Laney back to the Inn. Laney notices Nori has her arm crossed over her abdomen, but does not ask why.

Back in the restaurant Sanzo is on his knees in the floor holding his side as blood drips from his hand.

“Sanzo what happened?” Hakkai says.

“Where is she…?” Sanzo gets to his feet as he grabs Hakkai by his shirt, “Where the hell is she?” Sanzo says again more forceful.

“Her who dude?” Gojyo says.

“That bitch from the Inn…” Sanzo says cringing in pain as he holds the dagger in his side.

“What are you talking about Sanzo? They left a while back.” Hakkai tells him.

“No… She is the one that did this…” Sanzo says. Goku stands there as rage burns inside of him.

“That bitch, I will tear her apart…” Goku growls.

“You need a doctor Sanzo your bleeding bad.” Hakkai says. “Where’s your doctor at we need to see him, NOW!!” Hakkai yells at the people in the restaurant.
