Sorry if I updated just now... getting outdated! Hahaha... lame joke, I know I know. Hehe.. Forgive me. Anyways, chapter 6; I'm sure it's pretty obvious who the godesses and their reincarnated forms are right?
Anyways, enjoy the chapter 6... Travelling Way Back Into The Past. :D enjoy.
Oh and by the way, the chapter name: 'La Camisa Negra' is something I was listening to when I was writing this chapter.
Yes, Juanes rocks.
Now... we must go on with the story!
Chapter VI:Traveling Way Back Into The Past
I'm squeeky clean now! YAY! My body seemed to scream out in glee. I wouldn't blame them, I feel gooooood! Well, as good as a person can get after taking a bath anyway. 'It doesn't feel right... it feels like someone's...' I didn't even have to finish thinking to complete the thought. My eyes caught one sight: a certain red headed half breed of a kappa--and a perverted one at that--standing just a few feet away.
"YOU'RE PEEPING ON ME!" a shrill voice ripped through the somewhat peaceful forest, scaring away the birds to fly away from the tree branches or whatever they were perching on.
And guess what?
Yes, you all have guessed oh so greatly, that voice was sure, was mine.
"Huh?" that was all the perverted kappa's reply. 'Oh surely by those bickering with Goku, he could've atleast! ATLEAST! have learned great comebacks! Don't kid me here' an unconvinced me thought.
Moments when Goku had been considerably dumb flashes in my mind. '...nevermind then...'
Clutching my towel in my hand, and my 'bathroom necessities bag' in the other. Gojyo widened his eyes then.
"You smell nice.." the cheesy kappa (half) said.
And without hesitation I beat him with my bag, containing: a bar of soap, shampoo, toothpaste, and such. I'm so happy to share that.
'Take this! AND THAT! AND THIS! YOU -#$!' BWUAHAHAHAHAHA!' that was a sadistic thought from yours truly.
"And I see they're still as reckless as always.." the Merciful Godess let out, smirking. She was, again, in her throne, watching whatever reckless commotion is going down there. Yes, the girls had been one hell of an entertainment to Kanzeon Bozatsu. She had figured that out ever since they walk through her doors, with Jiroushin tailing behind them, trying as hard as he could to make the situation light.
Ah yes, she could still remember it like it was just yesterday..
Four troublesome kids, they were as they entered through, what they call, "huuge gigantic doors!" a conceited Michi pushed Yumi to one side to lead her band of sisters. Yumi, being the stubborn and temperemental kid she was, nudged Michi in the stomach back. Akemi, however, began observing the intricate details of the door. Kohaku, always ever the curious one, just passed by Yumi and Michi, though it didn't went by unnoticed as Yumi and Michi then began attacking each other.
"Girls, you behave, I wouldn't want the Merciful Godess to think of you as trou..."
Too late.
The doors have already opened, reveling the two fighting sisters, one unfortunate sister got caught up, and Akemi.. well, she was too mesmerized to get inside that she didn't noticed the battle on going with her sisters, thus, leaving her to fall atop of them.
"Hello Jiroushin, who do we have here?" the ever-so merciful Godess smirked.
"Uhh... Kanzeon-sama..."
Michi immediately got out of the pile, dusted herself off and presented herself in the Godess's vision. "I'm Michi. You're a pretty lady. Those were my... distant cousins." smiled the mischivous 8 year old.
"Kiss-up.." Yumi managed to let out. She was caught between Akemi (as on top); and with Kohaku (in the bottom).
"Kanzeon Bozatsu.. these are my neices: Kohaku.." Jiroushin managed to try to save himself and his neices.
Kohaku brightened up at the sound of her name, "THAT'S ME!" the hyper girl managed to squeeze out of Yumi and Akemi and presented herself to Kanzeon.
"I'm really her sister! Though, she just won't admit that to other people because she thinks we're uncool and it will ruin her popularity level.. whatever that is." smiled Kohaku.
"Is that so?" Kanzeon retorted, slightly amused.
"Uhh... this is Akemi.." Jiroushin pointed to the kid left in the pile atop.
"Pleased to be grace by your presence Merciful Godess" Akemi said, grinning.
"And this is the eldest: Yumi." Jiroushin 'phew!'ed out, wiping the sweat on his forehead.
"Hii..!" the poor kid was still in the ground, unable to get up.
Kanzeon just smiled when she remembered that day. She can still hear the screams echoing up to her throne, screams of either Yumi and Michi or Yumi and Konzen. The four girls had grown up well in the palace. Yumi, always ever so bored, would go to Konzen's room and, in his words, bug him. Kohaku will remain in either her room, the kitchen, dinning hall, or outside just running around the fields, neverminding about how much trouble she could cause, and she would cause. Akemi, well.. books are her thing, but once she finishes practically all of them, she would join Kohaku in doing almost whatever Kohaku is doing. Michi however, Michi's boy-crazy ever since she reached a two digit age.
Troublesome, they all are. Reckless, yeah they maybe. But a hopeless case, no.
The Merciful Godess then remembered their promise to her, as their token of gratitude. "We would help you with anything! We would do anything for you!" were only a vague version of their promise to her. Kanzeon chuckled as she remembered the incident. It was a dull event that was taken over by such a interesting turn of events.
A few years after they stepped foot on Kanzeon's palace, they knew about the Jade Emperor's annual parade/festival. They hated it, boring, and dull... and in Akemi's words : "An Uninteresting Baboon's Parade" they were probably considerably young, in human years, they would've been.. 17. They didn't act like it though, they still act like they always do. In Jiroushin's words: "Like kids!"
Akemi had once gone up to the palace before the Jade Emperor's little speech, and as usual, she left her book there. Too caught up in the books in the library, Yumi assumed. When the emperor was giving out his speech, Akemi managed to drag Michi, Yumi and Kohaku to go with her to the palace and help her search for her missing book. Seemed like Akemi left it at the kitchen, so that was the first place they interrogated. Michi was doing her usual flirt, with the chef this time, who was doing flamboyant flame cooking. Yumi, was just helping Akemi search for her book, albeit watching the chef do his magic. Kohaku, being... Kohaku, just begged for food and food at Yumi.
'I could never understand how she manages to stay that slim and yet so... well have that kind of appetite.' Yumi complained in her mind.
"You're in a kitchen and you dont know how to get some food for yourself! What are you? A special breed of pea sized brained Godess are you!" Yumi let out enraged.
Kohaku, just blinked after a pause, she went: "So are you going to give me food?"
Yumi sighed and get to the cupboards to find something to satisfy Kohaku. "Eureka!" Akemi let out in triumph, she just found her book, holding it up high, what a mistake. As Yumi found a edible food for Kohaku and Kohaku pounced on her, resulting Yumi to bump to Akemi, catapulting the book to be caught in the fire that the chef is making fancy of.
'Phew!' Akemi thought, the book was safe. It just landed near the oil compartment. Akemi reached out to get it, but then, Yumi and Kohaku just have to fight.
Leading one of them knocking over the oil.
"THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY FIRE IF THE CHEF WASN'T SO... UNFOCUSED IN HIS JOB!" Akemi complained later on. Everyone had managed to got out of the palace safely and there were no harm done.. except for the palace anyway.
Yumi, just looked at her younger sibling with the same expression she'd been wearing ever since the incident: guilty. Kohaku just murmured: "Here we go again.." being the victim of Akemi's more frequent harsh outbursts. Michi just rolled her eyes, she couldn't see the big deal in this situation anyways, 'Where are the hott guys in here?' were her thoughts exactly as she scanned the place.
"Well.. think of it this way..." Kohaku started, "A-atleast..." she paused to find something to say to lighten up the situation.
Yumi and Akemi turned to look at her, curious as to what their sister may say next. Michi, however, was looking for.. well... 'hott guys'.
"ATLEAST!" Kohaku finally found something! "THE PLACE DIDN'T GO DOWN!" Kohaku let out genuinely happy, all for the attempt to save such a situation.
That's when the whole palace, went down, ruined it was.
Yumi let out a frustrated growl, tugging her somewhat long azure hair out of it's roots, "YOU JUST HAVE TO SAY IT DON'T CHA?"
Jiroushin's office.
"I am very very disappointed at you girls, you could just have burned the kitchen, that's all fine and dandy, but put the whole palace on fire!" Jiroushin blew his.. cool.
"We're very sorry..." Yumi said, on behalf of her younger siblings.
"Sorry isn't going to do much with what the Jade Emperor's punishments for you.." Jiroushin started.
"There won't be." a deep almost alluring female voice interrupted the mad-as-hell man's rage.
"Wha-wha-what? Kanzeon!" Jiroushin was surprised, 'what does she mean there won't be?'
"There won't be any punishment for the girls. I've managed to get them off the hook." the godess retorted calmly.
Everyone was surprised, who knew Kanzeon was that good in negotiating?
"What..." Kohaku started to ask, in a barely audible voice ".. were they planning to do to us anyway?" she ended her question shakily, afraid of the answer.
Yumi, who was sitting beside Kohaku nudged her by her elbow, and 'tsk'ed. Not wanting to know the answer herself.
"They were planning to take 2 of you into slavery and the other two of you to marry the Jade Emperor's sons."
Michi grimaced, she was the first to show emotion (aside from frustration, guilt, anger) among the four of them ever since the accident. "EEW! Those... guys are like... gross!" she then slumped back, still disgraced about the possibility that she may have to marry one of them if it hadn't for the Merciful Godess. 'So she IS merciful huh?' Michi smirked at that thought 'And we all think she was just a sadistic bitch.. haha!'
Yumi, already pained by just thinking of what her sisters possibly would have to endure if it hadn't been for Kanzeon's interferance, with a grateful look, she went and held Kanzeon. "Thank you.. really thank you.." sobbing now.
"Yumii..--!" Akemi whinned, but then was interrupted.
"Oh how can we ever repay you? We owe you our lives Kanzeon! We promise with our lives we would do anything for you!" Yumi interrupted, in a voice all too thankful and too unfamiliar to her sisters.
And that's how it was, a simple promise like that then turned into something not short of an adventure for the girls.. and another seemingly good entertainment for Kanzeon.
Whoo! Finished it finally! whipes out sweat from forehead
Never thought it would be this long though... I'm surprised.
Now, how long did it take me to write this? Let's see, 2 days back in Philippines, in the airplane and..2 days here--back in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
5 days! Haha! Wow...
This should be worth it though..
I'll be updating soon.
But, for now. Reviews please! smiles seductively hahaha!
