Chapter 2

 

They walked down the street, Sasha bringing lots of attention to them, making girls gasp when they saw her in Goyjo's shirt and clinging to him. Goyjo was blushing lightly. “Lets' go, I have positions to show you” said Sasha, “may we?” asked Sasha looking at Karai. Goyjo looked pleadingly at her. “Sure” said Karai, smiling at him, “have fun”. Sasha yanked Goyjo down the street and Karai turned to Goku. `Want to eat?” she asked him and Goku answered with a “yahoo” before bolting down the street in the opposite direction of Sasha and Goyjo. Karai followed and they went to a food store. Karai bought a bag of meat buns and other food. Then they went to a restaurant and she bought some sukiyaki. She watched Goku eat before staring out the window. “Hey Karai”, “mmm”, “how are you paying for the food?”, Karai smiled and patted her coat pocket “that is for me to know and you to not” she said, he shrugged and went back to eating. Sasha laughed at all the girls glaring at her and Goyjo through the windows. She pounced on him just as a girl said “how dare he pick that pathetic little human girl over us pretty ones”. With that Sasha snapped, her choker fell to the ground and she glowed, eyes going slitted. Over at the bar, Karai felt Sasha's aura growing rapidly and said “crap” before leaping out and up onto the roof, running toward Sasha. Goku grunted as he ran along behind, just managing to keep his feet. To make it easier he leapt onto the roof as well and kept up with Karai barely, she literally flew across the tops of the houses. When Karai reached the place where Sasha and Goyjo were she leapt down and grabbed Sasha. She spun her around and clamped her choker back into place. Sasha cooled down and looked at Karai, pleading. Karai understood the message and nodded. Sasha went around and punched all of the girls, sending them home, bleeding before walking inside and sulking. Karai looked at Goyjo to see him, sitting there looking stunned. His hair was ruffled and his buttons were coming undone. “What happened to you?”, “she tackled me” he said defensively “and I think I lost a button”. He looked meaningfully at his pants and Karai smothered a laugh. Karai led Sasha to the house and then they both slept. Goyjo and Goku collapsed onto the lounges and relaxed finally. “What happened” asked Hakkai, taking in their ruffled appearance. “You don't want to know” they replied simply before going upstairs to rest. Sanzo looked at Hakkai and they both started laughing. “I wonder what happened” said Hakkai simply before they too headed to the lounges to sleep. In the morning Karai woke up to find herself and Sasha squashed between Goyjo and Goku. Karai's temper flared again. “Get off me monkey!” she screamed before kicking him so hard he hit the far wall. Sasha woke at Karai's yell and Goku's groan; she opened her eyes to see Goku sliding out of a Goku-shaped hole in the wall. “Ouch” she said before poking Goyjo to wake him up. They all got out of bed and Goku and Goyjo went ahead. Soon Karai and Sasha followed and went downstairs to stop on the stairs. “Stupid monkey, will you shut up”, “do you both want to taste lead”, “but I'm hungry Sanzo”, *bang, bang*, “hey watch where you shoot that, you almost got me you stupid monk”, “please calm down, you're making a scene”. Karai sighed and they both walked down the stairs. “Boys be quiet” said Sasha, sitting down, “yes, stop being a pain” agreed Karai, sitting next to her. After a moment of silence, they got up and left. “What about food?!”. They stopped at the next town due to food, supplies and need for smokes. Before going to sleep Karai and Sasha talked while watching Goyjo and Goku play cards. “Hey Sashamy”, “I want a motorbike”, “me too”, “can we?”, “no money”, “let me handle that”, “huh”, “show you later”, “what about them?”, “bargain”, “done”. At eleven that night, Sasha, Karai, Goku and Goyjo sneaked out of the hotel and walked into the town centre. In a deal to keep quiet about the nights business, Karai had give Goku lots of food and Sasha had let Goyjo have a woman to talk to. Goyjo went around the corner and Goku sat out the front of the store but was too busy in food to notice the name of the store. Karai and Sasha walked in, picked what they wanted, asked for it to be delivered an hour later to the hotel and walked out. Back at the hotel Goku and Goyjo lay down and went to sleep instantly. Karai lay with her arms crossed behind her head when Sasha asked “hey, Karai-chan”, “mmm”, “how did you pay for them?”. Karai just held up a gold card and said “Sanzo” before slipping out of the room and then she came back a few minutes later. Sasha lay down and went to sleep while Karai lay on her back and stared at the roof. After awhile Karai sighed and got up. She went to the window and climbed out onto the balcony. Then Karai swung out onto the rail before climbing onto the roof of the building and laying there. “You right Karai” asked Sasha, popping her head up, then joining her on the roof. Karai looked at Sasha and said “no, something is bothering me and I can't sleep and I don't know why or what it is”. Karai looked away from Sasha and back at the sky, “alone is when I feel I can relax or even if I'm outside during night when the air is cool and fresh, I feel calm but still can't relax. It is so frustrating”. Karai curled her hand into a fist. Suddenly she sat up and then punched the roof, the shingles snapped and so did the roof beams. There was now a hole in the roof, they could see Goyjo asleep and Goku staring at them. Sasha waved and then placed the shingles back over the hole. “I don't know what to do Karai, I'm going back to bed now ok” Sasha said and climbed back onto their balcony and walked inside. She climbed into bed and said “Goku, go talk to her okay, I think you are the only one you can understand how she feels” before going to sleep. Goku looked at her and then did as she asked. He swung up onto the roof and saw Karai lying with her arms behind her head and eyes closed. “Karai” he asked cautiously, he went up to her and saw her eyes open, revealing two bright golden orbs. “Yes Goku” she said, “Sasha sent me up to talk to you, something about only I can help you through this faze”. Karai smiled and nodded “true, you probably could”. Goku waited but she said nothing else, just stared with unseeing eyes at the night sky. “Why did she say that?” he asked, breaking the silence. Karai said nothing for awhile before sighing, she looked over at him and said “because, we are the Sashae”. Goku was stunned, no one was the Sashae as him, no one had been through what he had in his life, god or human. “What makes you say that?” he asked, curious to know the answer. Karai sighed and looked back up at the sky. “In the heavens, I arrived before Sasha. I was straight away shackled with manacles for being a Heritique. Afterwards I was tortured and then placed in a cell, with no windows or light, it was a damp dark cell. I felt so alone most the time so I prefer nowadays to be by myself. I love the night sky as I had never seen it before. You were the Sashae weren't you? Except you weren't locked away for most of your life”. Goku looked at Karai and noticed how fragile she looked in the light cast by the moon. “I wasn't locked away, no, but I was shackled and treated like an outcast” he said, his eyes reflecting his sadness. Karai nodded, “I was let out after five years of confinement but was shunned by society, after that Sasha arrived and then I let out my anger by building bombs to blow up buildings and just cause havoc to the gods. She calmed me down enough that I didn't ignore everyone I met, so I didn't try to kill everything that talked or touched me. It was amazing the peace I found with Sasha”. Goku listened intently, he was captured in the picture her words were creating in his mind and he felt he understood her better than even Sasha. “Does Sasha know this part of you?” he asked. Karai smiled and shook her head. “No, I didn't want to burden her, but she knows the basics of my life”. He was amazed that she was still with them to this day, Goku would have thought that the gods would have killed her. “Anything else?” he persisted, wanting to know the full details. She nodded, “I know you are wondering why they didn't kill me in the heavens, it was because they couldn't. I spent most of my time outside in a high place just staring at the sky, wishing to be alone. They tried to kill me but I slipped from their grasp and when they thought I was dead, I came back. It was that I couldn't die, not by gods hands at least”, Karai stopped and remained silent as she remembered the times she had in heaven before Sasha came along and brought a calmness to her heart. “When we were thrown out of heaven, we were both locked away in separate caves, high on the mountain. It reminded me of my cell that I had been locked away in for years. I went crazy. It was so quiet there, like there was only me in the world. I didn't mind being alone but I didn't know where Sasha was and if she was alive, I was worried. By the time we broke out we were both stronger and our aura had changed, it was more dark and mysterious then before. It had just been a mysterious aura and then it changed to darkness, power and destruction. The heavens didn't want us so they locked us away and the lower world didn't want us because we were a nuisance, so we were shut away from the world. You know what that is like, you and I are close to the Sashae so that is why I can tell you what my life has been like because I know you understand, you know what it is like being tricked, locked away and shunned” Karai grew quiet and Goku felt her pain, her story had made him remember the memories that he had locked away. “I do understand” he said simply, he crawled over to where Karai was and lay next to her. Karai's body was shaking and suddenly she turned to him and wept onto his chest. Goku hesitated before wrapping his arms around her, holding Karai as she cried out her pain. Later on Karai stopped, she sat up and then glared at him “no telling anyone about this, even Sasha”. “Okay” he said simply, looking down at her. Before Karai could protest, he pulled her back against his chest so that she was leaning back on him. Karai had to admit she enjoyed leaning against him, she felt secure and warm in Goku's arms and she was surprised at that reality thought. The sat like that for the rest of the night and sometime Karai had fallen asleep, Goku had wrapped his cape around her to keep her warm. He realised that he had never seen her sleep, now he had, she looked so peaceful, laying there against him, breathing evenly. Karai looked calm for the first time since he had met her, even if her hand was curled into a fist. He smiled and realised that she was kind of cute, with her short black hair that framed her face. And also her bright golden eyes that were liquid when happy and steel when mad. Goku was surprised to find that he liked holding her there and keeping her safe, it almost felt like his responsibility he watched the sun coming up and when the lit hit Karai's' eyes she opened them to reveal her golden eyes, lit up by the rays of the sun, she looked beautiful . “Oh sorry about that” she said, when she noticed they were still on the roof and that she had slept on his chest. Karai stood up and stretched, “that is the first time I have slept and woken up completely fresh, thank you”. “You're welcome” Goku replied and stood up next to her, they stayed like that watching the sun rise fully. Karai looked over at Goku and saw he was quite handsome standing there in the first rays of the day, she smiled and yanked him toward the edge of the roof. “We had better go and wake them up” Goku said before she could, she frowned at him but then smiled, it made Goku's day to see her happy. He jumped down and then Karai followed, her jump was one of who knew how to balance in any situation. She landed gracefully before smirking at him. While all this was happening, Sasha was lying on the bed. Goyjo saw this and laid down next to her, pulling her against his chest. Sasha sighed, she enjoyed it when he lay next to her and held her close, washing away all worries. She wondered if Karai felt the Sashae about Goku, probably, she concluded. “Thank you Goyjo” Sasha said, snuggling against his chest and then going to sleep. Goyjo looked at her sleeping in his arms and smiled, she looked gorgeous in the half light. Goyjo bend down and laid a soft kiss on Sasha's forehead and then watched as Sasha smiled and murmured in her sleep. Karai walked to the door and looked over her shoulder at Goku before shouting “Rise and Shine, Sasha and idiot one, two and three”, “shut up” came the reply, grumbled from Sanzo. Hakkai walked out looking his usual happy state. “Where to today?” Karai asked, “West and to the next town probably” Hakkai replied “but we need to get the others out of bed first”. Karai smiled and beckoned to them both, they walked over to her and she whispered something to them. They both laughed and then Hakkai and Goku got ice cubes from the freezer. Karai, Goku and Hakkai went around to each of them and placed ice cubes behind them and then rolled them over. The three of them then walked onto the balcony, “five, four, three, two, one” said Karai, counting off her fingers and then three high pitched screams and a thump as they jumped out of the beds. “You scheming little temes!” Sasha shouted and Sanzo and Goyjo joined in with a bunch of `temes' and `amas'. Karai smirked while Goku and Hakkai shook from suppressed laughter. Then they broke their hold and burst into uncontrolled laughter when Sanzo, Sasha and Goyjo walked out, grumpy and looking ruffled from sleep. Karai couldn't contain her laughter anymore and just burst, her body shook and she ended up kneeling on the ground with tears in her eyes. “Teme” said Sasha simply before heading back inside to get dressed, Goyjo and Sanzo followed, leaving Karai, Hakkai and Goku wiping away the tears and trying to regain their composure. When they were ready to leave they headed downstairs, Karai and Sasha went straight out the door but Sanzo and the other three stopped just outside the door when they spotted the two motorbikes leaning near the jeep. “What the…?” asked Sanzo, Hakkai stood there looking stunned and Goyjo and Goku also looked stunned. They knew they had gone out last night late but didn't know why or what they went out for. Sasha and Karai walked over to the bikes and then jumped on. Sasha was on the black one with pink-red flames painted on the side and Karai got on the black one with a silver dragon design and kanji symbols meaning chaos, destruction and darkness. “Close those mouths and lets go already” said Sasha before they both kick started their bikes and shot off with the jeep following behind, barely keeping up. Sasha and Karai were leaping from one cliff ledge to the other, leaping over the passage where Hakkai was driving. “Hey watch it” shouted Goyjo when one of the bikes came too close. “Ah, did I scare you?” taunted Sasha before laughing. “Hey Karai”, “yeah monkey”, “can I hop on?”, “mmm, if you can handle it”. Goku pouted “of course I can”, “sure then, if you can get on”. Goku stood up but Karai smiled and started doing a fast series of jumps, spins and leaps and skids. Goku watched and then judges, jumped and landed with an `oof' on the bike as a wave of pain hit him. “boys are so easily hurt” muttered Karai before speeding up. Goku grabbed onto Karai's waste and held on for dear life. Sasha laughed and then pulled Goyjo up as she sailed past, plonking him onto the bike too. “What?!” yelled Goyjo before grabbing her as they left the cliff face and landed on the other side. Sasha and Karai were laughing like maniacs while Goyjo and Goku held on so they wouldn't fall off, scare out of their minds. “These two are crazy” thought Goyjo, then clung on tighter as they sped up and leaped over the passage and landing on the other side. “Why did I have to get on” Goku thought but he has to admit, he could see why the girls loved bike riding. Once you were used to the jumping into nothing and then spinning on the ground, once the adrenalin rush got to you it was amazing the skill these girls had, the scary thing was the wild look in both girls eyes. Their eyes had red around the edges and were going slightly slitted, never a good sign for these two. “Yehah” yelled Karai “hold on Goku, we are going for a spin”, “What!?” screamed Goku and then clung on as the bike left the ground and did a spin in midair. “Help!” yelled Goku as he started leaving the seat and then crashed back down as the bike hit the ground, spinning out of control. Karai kicked the ground to bring the bike to a skidding stop. “That was so cool” said Karai , “do it again so I can learn” said Sasha, “sure” replied Karai. She turned to look at Goku who was shaking behind her, “do you want to get off?” Karai asked. Goku just slid off the bike and collapsed in the jeep. Goyjo looked at Sasha, “You're not going to do that right?”, “why ever not, but I don't know how yet. It is the one skill that I haven't mastered yet” replied Sasha “I learnt most my skills from Karai and she learnt some from me, so I'll learn that trick and then you can join me”. Goyjo shook his head, “no thanks” he said, sliding off the bike and sitting next to Goku. “I prefer staying on the ground and on four wheels preferably” he said, then took out a smoke and started smoking. Sasha and Karai looked at each other and laughed, “ah, how sad, the boy can't handle a simple motorbike challenge” said Karai. Then they went back to leaping and jumping over the others heads. By the time they reached the next town, Sanzo and the others were very paranoid about a bike to land or smash into them. Sasha and Karai were waiting for them outside the hotel, talking and leaning against their bikes and causing people to stare and give them a wide breathe. As the group drove into the town, they could see why the girls were causing stares. They saw two girls with black hair, one with sea blue eyes and one with golden. Both wearing black clothes, boots and one wearing a long black sleeveless coat. Both wore power limiters and ignoring everyone. One of the girls had a manacle attached to each wrist and both had a marking on their bodies, add it together and you got two dangerous looking girls, with a scary aura to match. “Hurry up slow pokes”, “yeah we need to get a room” agreed Sasha. They walked inside and sat down, people stared and then looked away quickly when given the death stares. “Four rooms please”, “sure”, “thanks”. That night all slept well when `crash'. “Hey it's the Sanzo party”, “let''s get them”. Karai opened her eyes and sat up to see two demons with the god mark on their heads, even Goku and Goyjo were struggling. “Shall we help them”, “ok” replied Sasha. Sasha and Karai walked toward the demon gods and the demons stopped when they saw them. He took in their appearance and binders before saying “it can't be those two demons that almost destroyed the heavens and then were banished to the lower world by the gods, so they wouldn't have to deal with them anymore”. “Crap, we are in such shit” agreed the other demon, he started backing away. “Where are you going?” asked Karai, from behind him. He stiffened and Sasha yelled “you idiots woke me up” before they both lashed out and killed them on the spot. As the demons disappeared Sasha said “too easy” before crawling back into bed, “stupid demon” muttered Karai before laying down and staring at the roof again. Goyjo and Goku looked at each other, shrugged and then climbed into the bed with them, then lay down to sleep. Goku looked at Karai and saw she was awake, “Karai, are you going to sleep tonight?” he asked. “Probably not” replied Karai, she looked at him and smiled, “sleep, little one” she said and Goku realised he was very tired, he closed his eyes and went to sleep. Karai sighed and then lay back and she knew she wouldn't sleep a wink, even if it didn't show the next day. “Rise and shine, kids” Sanzo shouted, startling Sasha, Goku and Goyjo by hitting all of them in the head. Karai snarled and then grabbed the fan and hit him back. Hakkai suppressed a laugh, looking away to hid his smile. “You don't hit us without being hit back” said Sasha, smirking as Sanzo rubbed his head, where a lump was forming. Goku and Goyjo laughed, “back fired” they said. They all went downstairs for breakfast. Once again Goku stuffed his face with Sasha watching enviously. After ten minutes on the road, “hey guys, I'm hungry”, Karai dug into her bag and pulled out a bag of meat buns, “hey Goku, want these?” she held up the bags and Goku drooled. Karai winked at Sasha and said “want to play monkey in the middle” before chucking the bag to her. Sasha laughed and then Goku was jumping back and forth trying to get the bag. “Give it” he shouted just as Sasha hit a big rock, the bike skidded out of control and she dropped the bag. “Damn” she said, straightening out the bike. Goku munched happily on the buns and had a smug look on his face. “Damn monkey” Karai said swinging to a stop. Sasha followed and then she muttered something to Karai. Karai smirked and then sped up, she left the cliff face and then spun. As she sailed over Sanzo's head she reached down and grabbed his card before spinning upright and skidding to a stop on the other side of the passage. “See you in town” they said and then sped in the direction of the town. “Damn girl thief's” shouted Sanzo and the sound of the girls laughter reached their ears. “Damn, let's go Hakkai”, “yes sir” replied Hakkai and followed the girl who were now a cloud of dust. “it was a neat stunt though” muttered Hakkai, Sanzo just scowled at him and Goku and Goyjo laughed in the background, “those girls have style, I'll admit that” said Goyjo, “though I wish I was wish I was with them at this point”. He ducked as Sanzo fired his gun at him. “That was hilarious” laughed Karai “his face”. They were in town at the finest hotel munching on room service. “They didn't know what hit them” agreed Sasha. Their motorbikes were parked outside their window so they could keep an eye on them. They saw the jeep in the distance, slowly gaining on the town. “They're pretty slow aren't they” said Sasha laying down on the bed. “Agreed” said Karai before going over to lay next to Sasha, her arms crossed behind her head. They lay there quietly and soon slept, well Karai appeared too. Both girls eyes were shut but both on alert mode. If someone looked in they would see two girls around fifteen, sleeping soundly. If that someone looked closer they would see both were tense and had frowns on their faces, also that one wasn't really asleep and her hand was in a fist. Unfortunately the demons that attacked didn't see this. They just saw two young girls asleep, one lying on top of the covers and the other snuggled up under them. The demons smirked and then stabbed the bed, expecting two cries of pain before dying. “Huh?” said one before both demons went still when they felt something cold on their necks. “How dare you attack while we were asleep” said Sasha pushing down on the blade so she drew blood. She sniffed, that smells so good Karai thought before pushing it away. She shook her head and kicked the demons legs out from under him sending him crashing to the floor. “We aren't that dumb, temes” said Karai at him as he rubbed his back. “It seems a shame to kill our own brethren but oh well” said Sasha as she sent her demon to the floor as well and the demons both looked up at the girls who looked so innocent before. The room was so dark all the demons could see were two smiling mouths showing fangs and two blue eyes and two gold eyes glowing and the pupils slightly slitted. “No one comes into our room without permission and anyone who does dyes in pain as payment” they whispered before kicking both demons in the groin and as they doubled over stabbed them through the neck. The demons disappeared. “What a pain” muttered Karai, licking her blade clean; blood had always tasted so good to her. “I wonder where the others are?”, “don't know but I think our powers are eating away at the bonds cause I don't feel like I'm being pulled to Goku, I noticed when we got here” said Sasha. She looked at Karai in the moonlight, standing next to her and together they quoted “`today a mile, tomorrow the world'” and then laughed. Sasha went back into her alert sleep while Karai just lay next to her and closed her eyes, wondering why those demons attacked them. “Wake up gaki's” said Goyjo and Sanzo, poking the girls before finding themselves on the floor with blades at their throats.
