Chapter 2
The next mourning Gojyo awoke to the pleasant sensation of someone nibbling on his ear, and with a pleased groan he reached out and pulled the person on to him. "Mmm. Now that's a very nice way to wake up." He said as he opened his eyes and looked down into Howaito's brilliant pink ones.
"Well I have to leave and I just thought I'd wake you up before I go." Howaito said with a slight giggle, "Now let me go before you wrinkle my shirt."
Gojyo let him go and took a moment to look over Howaito's outfit. He was wearing a black leather shirt that zipped in back with long flowing white sleeves which appeared to be made of silk, his pants were also black leather with a strip of the white silk material running down the outer leg. Howaito's long white hair was now pulled back into a braid and he had donned several bracelets and necklaces, all silver.
"Wow." Gojyo said as he sat up in the bed, "You look good."
"Thanks." Howaito said with a smile, "and thanks again for helping me out last night. I really appreciate it, and even though I'd love to stay and thank you some more I really have to go. Horyuu seems to have left the room sometime last night and now I have to go and find her."
With a frown Gojyo looked at the door, "How did she manage that?"
"I have no idea, she does it every now and then, usually when there's something in the inn that’s caught her interest." Howaito sighed as he lifted up two axes from a table near the door and strapped them to his hips, then he reached out and lifted a large thick metal staff which he then strapped onto his back. Once finished he lifted up his bag and turned back towards Gojyo.
"Good bye Gojyo it was a pleasure meeting you, too bad we couldn't spend more time together." Howaito leaned in and placed a kiss on Gojyo’s lips before turning and heading out the door, leaving Gojyo alone with his thoughts.
Well he certainly was an interesting person. Mysterious even, he managed to keep me from asking too many questions. I'm still not entirely sure why he was attacked. Hell I don't even know what attacked him. As he thought to himself he returned to his room and gathered his things before heading downstairs for breakfast.
When Gojyo got downstairs he was surprised to see Howaito sitting at a table with the others chatting happily with Hakkai and Goku.
Hakkai looked up as he saw Gojyo enter the dining area. "Good mourning Gojyo. Howaito was just talking about you."
"Oh really and just what did he have to say about me."
Howaito smiled up at him. "Nothing much, just that you helped me out after I was attacked in an alley. By the way, why didn't you tell me about little Hakuryu. It's not everyday one meets a dragonling."
"I guess it just didn't occur to me. Besides I thought you were in a hurry to leave."
"Well I was, but I decided to delay my trip since Horyuu rarely ever gets to play with other of her kind." He reached out and stroked the top of Hakuryus head. "Actually, little Hakuryu is the first dragonling she's ever seen."
"Why's that." Goku asked as piled more food on to his plate.
"I found her when she was just an egg, dragonlings never leave their nests unguarded, so seeing as her parent’s were nowhere to be seen I thought it best I take her with me and return her to the dragonlings if I ever found them. I never did find any, and she's made the choice to stay with me rather than go off to find them on her own."
"Wow, so she's been with you her entire life. That's cool." Goku paused for a second. "Hey! Since Hakuryu can change into a jeep can Horyuu change into something to!?"
Howaito chuckled softly "Yes she can. She can turn into a motorcycle."
"Cool. So where are you going."
"Right now I'm heading to a city just a few weeks west of here. Then I'll be traveling North, not sure for how long, but it'll probably take up to a year or two to get where I need to go." Howaito glanced out the window and sighed, "As much as I enjoyed this relaxing conversation I really need to be heading off." Horyuu chirped unhappily as Howaito scooped her off the table after gathering up his things.
"It was a pleasure meeting you, perhaps we'll meet again one day." Howaito said as he carried an unhappy Horyuu out of the inn. A few moments later they heard the sound of a motorcycle riding off.
“He was nice.” Goku spoke happily, “but there was just something about him that seemed different. He doesn’t really seem to be human , but I’m positive he’s not a demon either. He must not be all that bright to have slept with a perverted water sprite like you, surely he’s way out of your league.”
“Shut up you baka saru! And for your information he came onto me, I wasn’t even considering sleeping with him.”
Hakkai laughed lightly, “I find it hard to believe that you were helping someone that good looking and exotic and you didn’t even think about trying anything.”
“Well, sure I thought about it, but I wasn’t intending on acting on those thoughts.”
“Will you all just shut up already and finish eating so we can leave.” Sanzo snapped at them from behind the newspaper.
“Come on Sanzo, didn’t you like him too.” Goku said with a grin as he started shoveling food into his mouth.
“Sure, aside from a polite hello he didn’t try to talk to me at all. Now shut up and eat.”
~*~
Breakfast ended without further incident and the whole Howaito incident was put in the past. They were now in the jeep heading west towards the next town. Goku and Gojyo were in the back bickering like usual with Sanzo yelling at them to shut up every now and then.
Just as their bickering was starting up again Hakkai said, “What’s that?” while leaning forward in his seat.
Silenced they all looked ahead of them to see something purple stretched out on the road.
“I think that’s Horyuu.” Goku said in surprise, “What is she doing alone in the middle of the road.”
When they got close to her Hakuryu suddenly changed back dumping them all on the group and flew swiftly to Horyuu’s side.
“Ow, dammit. You could have at least waited for us to get out.” Gojyo complained as he dusted himself off.
“She’s hurt!.” Goku said as he leaned over Horyuu, who was now stretching her head up to look at them.
Hakkai leaned down and carefully lifted Horyuu up. “It’s a deep cut across her wing but she should do fine after some rest. Where’s Howaito though? I’m sure he wouldn’t leave her alone while she’s hurt.”
Horyuu stretched out her good wing and reached with her neck towards the woods just as a loud shrieking wail game from that direction.
“What the hell was that.” Gojyo said as he rushed off towards the shriek with Goku close behind.
They broke through the woods and entered a large clearing just north of the road and saw five creatures laying dead around the clearing. Gojyo noticed that they were like the creature that had attacked Howaito the night before, only they were noticeable bigger. Howaito stood in the middle of the chaos, a sixth creature lay dead at his feet with his staff skewered through it’s head. Howaito stood with his head pressed against the staff taking deep breaths. He was covered in blood his pants were now missing one leg while the other had been ripped off at the knee, and his shirt was nothing more than a few scraps of fabric. His once long hair now came short of his shoulders.
“Howaito!” Goku cried out as he headed towards him. Howaito tensed up and tightened his grip on one of his axes, turning slightly towards them. He soon relaxed though as Goku drew near.
“Why hello Goku. What are you doing here?” Howaito said breathlessly.
“We saw Horyuu in the middle of the road, then heard a shriek so we came to see what was going on. Are you alright, you look like hell.”
“I’ve been better, though I’ve also been worse. I’ll survive, I just need to rest a bit.”
“I got an idea!” Goku turned towards Sanzo, “Sanzo, is it ok if we give Howaito a ride to the next town. It can’t be safe to leave him out here injured.”
“Whatever, let’s just hurry up and get going. I’d like to get to the next town before night fall.”
Howaito smiled at them as he pushed away from his staff, “Why thank you, I appreciate this greatly.”
Hakuryu turned back into the jeep, Sanzo and Hakkai got in while Gojyo helped Howaito into the jeep.
“What about your staff?” Goku asked.
“Forget it. I don’t feel like lifting it right now anyway.”
“I’ll get it for you. I doubt you’d want to come all the way back here for it.” Goku said as he moved over to the staff and grabbed it with both hands.
“Try if you want, but it’s really not necessary.” Howaito said as he settled into the jeep next to Gojyo with a sigh.
Goku pulled up on the staff to remove it from the creatures skull, stopped then blinked at the staff in surprise before letting go and heading to the jeep.
“How heavy is that thing?” He asked Howaito as he sat down in his seat. “It wouldn’t budge at all.”
“I don’t know exactly how heavy it is. All I know is I’ve yet to meet anyone who could lift it on their own.” Howaito said as he rested his head on Gojyo’s shoulder. “I think I’ll just take a little nap now.”
Gojyo looked down at Howaito in shock. Shit, I saw him lift that staff one handed this mourning. To think that it’s so heavy that the saru couldn’t even get it to budge, Howaito must be scarey strong. With a sigh he settled back as they continued their journey towards the next town. Horyuu sitting in Hakkai’s lap, Sanzo was just starring ahead of them at the road, and Goku checked over some of Howaito’s wounds wanting to make sure none were serious.
This howaito guy was proving to be more interesting then Gojyo had perceived. Perhaps once he was rested up he would tell them what was going on.

Nanaka: If you like my story please review. Cause I’m starting to hate my story and I don’t want to hate it cause that’ll just slow down my writing, and I’d like to finish this story before my brain tries to change it again. This story has changed plot several times, close to 10 I think, it changed about 3 times after I had started writing it, I had to ignore those though and stay with the plot I was writing otherwise I’d just end up with 10 different chapter ones and nothing else.
