Note: explanation on the sequel the 'Kawari' below.
Setting: Modern-day Tokyo (I know they were in China...but everything's more fun in Tokyo!)
The Sun Will Rise Again.
Chapter one: A painful goodbye.
The place was collapsing.
Falling apart, as a party of four raced through its winding passage ways and corridors. The enemy they had sought was defeated. Their mission was fulfilled. But what was to happen to them?
A large group of followers stood waiting for them. Each armed with a weapon.
They stopped.
"What do we do!?" Goku panicked.
They group was silent for a moment until Gojyo spoke up.
"You're all going to go on ahead...without me."
His companions looked at him like he was crazy. "What do you mean 'go on without you!?'" Hakkai hollered.
Gojyo brought his weapon fourth. "I've made up my mind...I'm gonna die a hero...not a no body."
There was no use in talking him out of it. Gojyo was known for making up his mind and keeping it made up.
"Gojyo..." Goku sniffled.
The half demon laid a hand on the boy's shoulder. "You promise you'll make it out of here alive monkey? Cause if not...I'm gonna beat your sorry ass down to hell."
Goku faked a smile and followed his other two friends, leaving the red-head alone to die.
"Come on you sorry bastards...who wants a piece?" Gojyo mocked as demons came from every direction.
A cry of both victory and defeat came from the dark hall.
Goku turned and tried to run back, but he was stopped by Sanzo. "He went just as he wanted..."
Hakkai wiped away a tear,
The ceiling above them started to collapse. They all looked up. Alarmed as hell, Hakkai fired a chi beam to keep the ceiling from caving in.
"If you don't move it you'll be crushed!" Sanzo cried.
"Then let it be that way!" Hakkai answered the priest.
Goku stood in horror upon watching Hakkai, a gentle man who did nothing but good deeds for them, about to be buried alive.
"Sanzo...You were the one chosen by the merciful goddess to return the demons to their normal, peaceful selves. I promised to accompany you to protect you...and I intend to keep that promise."
Without another word, Sanzo took his last remaining team mate and fled the scene.
The sound of walls and tons of stone caving in could be heard even from the heavens.
Goku wailed Hakkai and Gojyo's names over and over. Sanzo thought it best to let the child weep for the fallen heroes.
Sanzo knelt next to him, embracing him.
The moment of sadness was interrupted by an enraged voice.
"You think you can get away so easily? After you've destroyed everything I've worked for!? You'll pay for what you've done Genjyo Sanzo!"
It was Gyoukumen. She was clearly ready for a fight.
Sanzo remembered his gun had no bullets left. All he had was Goku to protect him.
Goku knew it and rose to the demoness's challenge.
She charged him with everything she had and missed. Goku quickly knocked her to the ground and stabbed her in the back with nyoibou.
She fell.
Sanzo patted the heretic on the head. Silently assuring him that Hakkai and Gojyo would be proud.
Suddenly, Sanzo was brought to his knees by an indescribable pain in his back.
"Sanzo!" Goku cried.
Gyoukumen had stabbed Sanzo in the back with a large dagger. She smirked as the priest fell.
"You bitch!" Goku snarled as the summoned up all of his sadness, and his rage into one hit which shot through the demoness's heart in a split second.
She disintegrated before his eyes.
The threat she had posed to them for so long finally ended in those last few seconds.
Goku ran to his master's side, sobbing.
"Sanzo...you're all I have left. Please don't leave me like this." He cried.
The monk looked up into the pleading gold eyes. "Goku......... You have to keep living... Hakkai, Gojyo and I will be with you again...you just have to...wait...Just call out to me............I'll hear you...and you won't be alone anymore.........I promise."
Sanzo closed his eyes as the life drained from him. He could die knowing he did something right.
"S-Sanzo?" Goku sniffled. "No...Please Sanzo! I don't wanna be alone again! Please wake up!" The child wailed and buried his face in the priest's chest.
Goku curled up next to his 'sun' and sobbed.
"I'll call out to you...I'll wait for you...please rescue me again..."
And he fell into a lonely, cold darkness.
