The market of the small village was alive with the hustle and bustle of morning activity. People strolled up and down, stopping every now and again to purchase what they needed for the week, or for that evenings supper.
Goku stood, face lit up, on the side of the road, just enjoying the various scents of the many foods there. He'd managed to get away from Sanzo, Hakkai and Gojyo when they weren't looking, the scents of the market luring him their. It was only a shame he hadn't stolen that nifty credit card of Sanzo's in the process, at the moment all he could do was mourn the fact that he couldn't eat anything...
"I'm so hungry," he moaned, none too quietly to himself. His stomach took that time to grumble in agreement, he and his stomach always agreed on everything.. Goku was in turmoil, he couldn't even remember the last time he'd been full to the point of bursting. Sanzo was depriving the poor kid, "Sanzoo..." He moaned, knowing the monk was probably at the inn with the other two by now, "why do you let me run off," he added, grumbling to himself once more before trudging back the way he'd came. Now he just had to find Sanzo and beg him to feed him. He was willing to get a hundred times with that paper fan if only he had his tummy filled with that scrumptious looking pastry..

Sanzo's sloping lazy purple eyes looked around him as he grew a little suspicious...they had entered an inn..and Goku had failed to even say a word...he would have been terrorising the place by now by trying to get at the food and Gojyo would have at least started an argument. But nothing came. All there was was a remark from the other two..one about the waitresses, and another on how it looked such a nice place. Three guesses to who these two comments came from. He turned back around and walked out of the inn "Goku's gone.." he muttered half to himself. His rogue voice half muffled by the noise of the inn as the door finally closed. Where had that stupid monkey gone to now? He really was irressponsible..and just knew he would have to eventually deal with it if he did anything stupid. And he didn't like sorting other people's busniness out.
He started to walk a little way down the path inwhich he came...a slightly annoyed and yet calm look to his face. When that idiotic chimp came back he would see to it that he didn't start wandering off again...last time had been hell. And really got on his nerves...all he wanted now was for a good drink and smoke.

"Sanzo! Hey, Sanzo!" Goku's excited voice could be heard before his form skidded to a top in front of Sanzo, brown hair ruffled ever more than usual, golden eyes wide and sparkling as he grinned up at the fake monk. Sanzo had to be the least Holiest person that Goku had ever come across, the guy carried a gun and a carton of cigerettes for crying out loud, "we need supplies, right? We ran out, right? Well can me and Hakkai go shopping?" He knew that if Sanzo was to give his credit card to anybody, it would be Hakkai. He trusted Hakkai with the money far more than he trusted his 'pet monkey'. Hakkai was like a big brother to him, Goku always managed to get Hakkai to buy him food, Goku was trying to be sly..
Plus, he needed to eat sometime tonight..
The Youkai was breathing slightly heavily, he had been planning on taking his time on getting back to the inn, he guessed Sanzo was bound to thwack him with that fan of his. But then he'd thought of the shopping idea and just couldn't seem to wait to try it out, so he'd ran. The energetic monkey had no qualms about running anywhere, especially when food was bound to be a reward at some point, "huh, so can we?"

Sanzo heard the loud voice of that stupid monkey before he saw him. So he needn't go furthur...he stopped in his tracks, his sandeled feet picking up a little dirt, and watched as Goku ran to right infront of him. The Youkai's hair was messier than ever and his eyes were even wider...Sanzo on the other hand held a solem face with droopy purple eyes that suggested that he wasn't amused. Or at least excited like the monkey in front of him. As Goku spoke...his voice bouncy and irritating..Sanzo made a irritable face..he could just see that he really wasn't in the mood for a hyper active kid. Even if he was 500 years old.
Sanzo cut the youkai's last sentence dead with the big wack of his paper fan connecting with Goku's head "Don't ever go wandering off again because i just know i'll have to deal with whatever chaos you begin and i really don't want to save your sorry little ass" He shouted in one long sentence whilst looming over the monkey child and then calmed, and stood back up to his usual lean posture..the fan still clutched in his right hand as he crossed his arms. He let out a long sigh..he just knew Hakkai would probably now give him tips to calming down and saying that Goku was just trying to be resourceful or something annoying like that.
He turned his face to Goku again and looked up at the sky with a 'i'm not gunna win' kind of look. Then back down at the short Goku "Fine..." he said in his rough rogue voice..his face clearly stating that he couldn't really give a damn "..but only if Hakkai takes charge of the money...i'm not letting you buy the whole damn market.." he said directly to Goku..his voice edged with annoyance at the thought of letting Goku loose amoung the food stalls...it was a clear recipe for disaster. His card had already been nearly spent out once...they had had a drinking contest at an inn against some thugs..and there was the food before that as well...and with Goku to feed..who technically would never starve of starvation, the inn probably made the most amount of profit that year. He looked at the calm, cheery Hakkai "Right you take the stupid monkey to the market and get some supplies for the road...just don't let him try to buy the whole damn lot.." he said gruffly as he looked once again at Goku and then fished out his trusty credit card form the resess of his white robes to give to Hakkai.

"Ah! Sanzo!" Goku moaned, looking up at the monk dejectably, on hand rubbing his head through his brown tuft of hair, "that hurt, why did you do that for?!" he added, sounded really quite confused. He never really took the hits and insults from the monk seriously, he'd never thought that Sanzo had ever really meant them. Even though he knew he grated on his nerves sometimes he'd always believed that he was Sanzo's friend. To a certain extent anyway. He trusted the monk, he just hoped Sanzo trusted him in return, "alright, i won't wander off again, promise." That was a lie. Goku tended to go off whenever he wanted to. When he set his mind on something he was off, despite what Hakkai, Gojyo or even Sanzo had to say about it. It was just the way the little monkey boy worked.
The confusion was washed away by yet another bright grin, the exact same look he had upon his face when he'd skidded to a halt in front of Sanzo, "Really?!" He'd gotton his own way? And Sanzo was seemingly not bothered? He was going to have to try and remember that one. Like he was trying to remember that he shouldn't start 'rock paper scissors' with the scissors.. Because the entire group knew he always picked that first and he always ended up loosing. He hardly ever remembered though, "Sanzo wanna come?" He asked, smiling brightly still, "there's a bunch of stalls, maybe you could splash out on some new socks or something?" Ahem, yes. Socks.

Sanzo turned back round to Goku...a slight look of disbelief on his at-the-moment calm face. He promised not to go wandering off...somehow in Sanzo's mind he knew that Goku more than probably wouldn't keep that promise. It wasn't that he didn't care for Goku..and took pleasure in hitting him with his fan, he was just worried about him that's all. He would never admit it...and frankly he gave off such an anti-social behaviour that everyone around him would probably be amazed if he actually really cared for someone. Sanzo was the i-don't-like-being-touched-and-i'll-kill-you-if-you-do. So you see...this bad tempered monk rarely made friends. He wasn't even much of a preist...he didn't belive in anything apart from himself..and hated preaching sermons.
He made a face that said he really didn't give a damn about going shopping, his drooping eyes emphasising the point. His right hand still cluthced the paper pan that was famous for it's diciplinery hitting. He looked at Goku "Why would i need socks for? All i want is too sit down, get a drink and smoke." he started speaking, his voice once again rouge and slightly edged with annoyance "But because you ran off you bahakara (sp?) i had to go look for your sorry ass and delay my route." he frowned at the stupid monkey a little irritated. Goku's cheerful face didn't really seem to calm him down. "So you can just go along with Hakkai there and shop around like a little girl..."
He ended it in a tone of slight harshness...but Goku's unecessary disappearence's where starting to nerve him slightly. All he needed to do was listen...why did he never listen?

"I'm not a girl!" Came the somewhat indignant response from the younger, somewhat shorted scruffy haired boy, "Sanzo, you don't really think i'm a girl? Do you?" He asked, beginning to trudge along on the way back to the inn. Sometimes, to maintain a conversation with the monk you had to anger him ever so slightly, just enough so he would continue speaking, but not enough that he'd shoot you. There was a fine line between the two, he had to be careful.
Hakkai was probably checking out the rooms that they were going to rent out for the night, he was, after all, the most domestic of the four of them. Goku was beginning to wonder if the Youkai would want to go shopping with him instead of doing all of the nanny-ish things that he seemed to love doing. If worse came to worse he could always go with Gojyo, Sanzo might give over the 'almighty gold card' to the perverted Kappa. Maybe. Though he never got his own way with the water sprite. And they'd probably end up getting thrown out of the market (if it's at all possible) with their constant disagreements.
He stopped in his tracks suddenly, looking behind him at the monk. Confusion showed clearly upon his young face, in those golden eyes, "hey, Sanzo, where's this Inn again?" Can anybody say locationally challenged?

"I'll think that you're a girl if you keep going on like this...it won't surprise me if you started wearing pigtail's and skipping everywhere by the rate you're going with the intention of shopping.." he replied bluntly, yet his face remained calm...Sanzo was quite a bottled up person. And was very anti-social..for instace. He hated being touched. When he finished speaking he turned to walk back to the inn..he was needing a cigerette at lest. Goku was infront of him..and had suddenly turned round with that expression of lostness of his face.
Sanzo looked down to the floor and let out a silent sigh...even his eyes had closed. He stopped in his steady tracks behind Goku on the way back to the inn. His eyes reopened showing purple irises and he started walking again "If you'd been paying attention you would know that it's directly infront of you if you just keep on walking." he replied and walked right past Goku, walking in his own pace with his mind fixed on getting back to the inn. "And i don''t see why you can't just eat at the inn.." he added as he glanced over his shoulder at the monkey child.
He'd just fixed a certain chaos at the inn..when Goku gets into an inn all he can think off is food, food...and more food. Then there was Gojyo who was tease Goku and the inevitable argument would break out. And after a while, it would stop...by usually himself threatening to shoot them or hitting them round the heads with his fan. It was an effective method he must admit.
He glanced again over his shoulder "Are you coming to the inn or not?" he asked a little bluntly...he wasn't about to start standing here listening to an undecicive monkey. He momentarily stopped in his tracks..his head turned over his shoulder..his slopping purple eyes calm and his face expectant.

"Only if it's all i can eat!" Goku answered brightly, jogging slightly to catch up to the monk. He'd always found it quite amusing how Sanzo's sandals always made a similar sound to that of a horse. He'd wondered time and time again if the priest would allow him to jump on his back and yell 'Giddy up!'... Everytime the thought crossed his mind it made him grin inanely and almost not hear Gojyo's rather snarky or sarcastic comments. Mostly about Goku being a Homo. The monkey wasn't sure what that was, but he was guessing it wasn't anything good.
"I'm so starving i don't think i'd be able to go shopping anyway." He'd adopted the familiar moaning/whiny tone that he usually had when his stomach was protesting loudly. He was surprised Sanzo hadn't heard his stomach growling like some caged animal, to himself it seemed loud enough. He wanted food, and a lot of it. He hadn't eaten in five hundred years, his body was trying to make up for it, "can we eat first and then get the rooms? That sounds much more promising that having to go through sorting out our rooms whilst i'm hungry. I might just drop dead halfway up the stairs." Let's just not mention the fact that the monkey child was rechargeable. He recharged, became healthy whilst unconscious or dying. It was odd and unnatrual. But the aura of the earth healed him, he was, after all, an earth child. ((Woo! Natural hippy!))
"There are enough rooms for one each, right? We don't have to share like last time?" Goku did ask a lot of questions, "Gojyo wrote all over my leg last time..."

Sanzo rolled his eyes and headed off once again towards the inn..he was just greatful that it wasn't far. Even though Goku had been with him for seven years...he could still irritate him to the point of threatening to shoot him if he didn't shut up. He muttered half to himself about how 'all he could eat' would never be enough for Goku's stomach.
Goku's whining had already started...he could practicly see the image of Goku walking bent over the front slightly with his hands almost touching the floor. A perfect whining posture for Goku he thought. "I'm not sure..i didn't even get a chance to look at the rooms because you went and ran off. So tough luck if we do share..." he commented gruffly...he didn't exaclty want to share either. Once when they called in at an inn they had to share one room with one bed. And because they had been arguing over who got the bed, they'd all ended up in awkward positions on that one bed when a girl walked in. She must have thought they were all gay or something. Now that was embarressing. He was just lucky had he wasn't ontop of Goku like Gojyo was.
Sanzo kept walking down the dirt path and finally the inn began to form into view. It's wooden structure and small size. But enough when they only wanted to stay the night. Anymore and Sanzo didn't think that he could take any more whining from Goku and Gojyo. In his mind he smiled...not long until he could just sit down and relax and not having to go after run away Bakahara's. ALthough he thought this...he kept a plain calm face. His drooping purple eyes fixed on thier destination.

"That perverted Kappa ain't gong to be pleased?" He grinned in what to him sounded an innocent type of way, but to anybody else would seem somewhat mischievous. Last time the kappa had woken him up and complained that he was snoring.. Then, of course, Goku had gotton hungry and couldn't fall back to sleep no matter what he did, the groaning and grumblings of his stomach wouldn't allow him too.. So he'd bugged Gojyo of course, bugged him until the red headed water sprite had actually dared to wake Sanzo to get to their food rations. Gojyo hadn't gotton any sleep that night because of his stupid mistake of waking up Goku ^_^
"Hey.. Sanzo! Is that it?" He asked, finally having caught up to the monk and walking quite happily beside him, forgetting for a moment that he was hungry. His nosiness had to take priority, "if it is i think i'm happy. Itlooks better than that last place anyway. Much more cleaner for one.. Are Hakkai and Gojyo already in there? Were they ordering food? Have they already got our rooms? Will that mean i won't have to carry the bags to the rooms? Because i alwaysate doing that... Will you let me hae some alcohol in this place? I am old enough now.." Not legal to drink in public though.. Bugger.

God Goku could annoy him...he just wouldn't shut up. Sanzo could even be seen getting more and more irritated by the minute...all you needed was a throbbing vein the in his temple. Question after question...if it wasn't food related, it would be question time. And yet more questions arrived...asked in that curious and cheery voice of his. Which just added to the lowering of Sanzo's tolerance gadge. So when the stupid monkey seemed to be coming to an end of a long list, Sanzo swiftly hit Goku again over the head with his paper fan. "Will you shut up!" he raised his voice to Goku as he now faced the Bakasaru. He stood up and closed his eyes briefly as he lowered his fane back to his side and turned towards the closely nearing inn once again "If they've been themselves Hakkai would have sorted out the rooms and Gojyo is not doubt drooling over the waitresses in the inn. " he finally said simpily and made his way back before he shot Goku...not that he actually would...but he would threaten it anyway "As i'm not psychic we'll just have to find out when we get there alright?" he said with a glance at Goku.
Then he came to the last question...would he allow Goku to drink alcohol? Techinally he was 518...or something like that...but with the mind and body of an 18 year old...so according to that. He shouldn't be allowed to drink the stuff in public places..and he really didn't want to sort out a drunken Goku. The last time he drunk in public was at that drinking contest they had against the thugs...Goku was the first one out on their side and had gone into a deep sleep. He really couldn't take his drink. He on the otherhand was the second to last to stay up...although when he was there he was about to use spiritual magic on the humans...only to be wisely stoppd by Hakkai who didn't seemed to be affected at all. "No.." he said bluntly as he walked up to the inn's front. "I'm not having you going around making a fool of us all.." it was true...Goku would either fall asleep or make a fool of the group..not that he did that anyway. Gojyo usually started teasing the Bakasaru..then all hell broke out and all Hakkai could do was smile.

"Sanzo! What was that for?" Goku whined, once again rubbing his temple with his hand. As Sanzo never really told him why he hit him all of the time the monkey never truly understood why he was being thwacked with that paper fan. So of course he normally made mistakes once, twice and maybe even a third time (in reality it's a hell of a lot more than three times... But myeh).
"Hey, do you think they'll have that real nice bread dish they had at the last place?" Goku asked thoughtfully as eh chewed idly on one of his finger nails. It seemed he'd already forgotton about being hit just twenty seconds ago, "if they do, can i have it? I'll have to try and make sure Gojyo doesn't take it again though." That had been fight that had lasted quite a while. Even after the perverted water sprite had licked the bread Goku was still trying to get his paws on it. It seemed that as long as the food wasn't digesting in Gojyo's stomach then he was definetely going to get it.
"What?!" He cried out, sounding as outraged as Goku ever really could, "why not?" He demanded. He might be loyal to Sanzo for reasons that only he knew of, but that didn't mean he didn't question the stupid droopy eyed priest at every available oppurtunity. Like this one now, especially since he wasn't let him get the alcohol that he so desperatly wanted. Gojyo would give it to him... But only for entertainment purposes, "I'll only have a little! Promise." He'd just ask Gojyo for some behind Sanzo's back. The kappa was useful sometimes ^^

Sanzo sighed out loud and stopped walking just infront of the inn's door then looked to Goku "You can have whatever to eat because i really don't give a damn what you eat. " he started off saying first, his face calm and his droopy eyes staring solidly at the Bakasaru. His expression when a little darker "I'm not going to be the one blamed for your drunken stupidity in this place so if you get some you get it from someone else...and at your own expense.." he added after a small pause as he moved his gaze back to the door of the inn.
Right the only thing to wonder now was whether Hakkai and Gojyo had sorted out the rooms. Hopefully they got a room each...if the worst comes to worst and they only have two rooms...he was sharing with Hakkai. No way was he sharing with Gojyo and Goku..they would drive him insane. Especially Goku's snoring and Gojyo's constant smug remarks. But he was having the bed...he paid...he got the bed. So there. He extended out a partially black clothed hand and pushed open the door to reveal a smally busy inn..warm and smellibng of food. Alcohol reaking in the air and small amounts of laughter when conversations buzzed through the atmosphere. The place was one of the nicer they had been too...not that big, but at lest it served food. He couldn't really think what Goku's 'starving' reaction would be this time if they had discovered that servings had stopped or didn't exsist.
"Don't go haressing the waitresses for food alright?" he said a little gruffly to Goku as he took a step inside and kept his head high up to look around...his constant alertly droopy purple eyes looking around the room...he just knew something would go wrong...

"Alright!" Goku grinned, hurriedly making his way into the inn, "Let's eat!" The monkey's senses were more advanced than the average humans anyway, so when he hurried on into the inn the scent of food overcame him, making his mouth water and his hunger to rise ten fold, "hey Sanzo, can i order now?" He knew exactly what he wanted already, there was no need to look at the menu. When the waitress asked what they'd like, the monkey only had to reply 'One of every dish'. It was as easy as that. Sanzo might not approve, but when had he ever approved of anything that he did? When did anybody approve of anything that he did?
The over excited Goku, scanned the inn in a matter of seconds, spotting his two friends sat comfortably in a table in the corner, Hakuryu perched upon the back of Hakkai's friend, nuzzling his master's neck. It seemed the white dragon had finally got bored of sitting outside by itself. Hakkai himself sat smiling amusedly at whatever Gojyo was saying, the Kappa's lips were barely moving as he spoke which meant he was probably bitching about the lack of 'babes' in the room. Goku couldn't tell exactly what Hakkai was drinking, but the liquid in Gojyo's glass was most definetely beer. The Hanyo rarely drank anything else.
"Move on over," he said cheerily, greeting the two by shoving Gojyo's chair with his foot so he could squeeze a chair in besides his. The kappa was taking up one entire side of the table.. It was his own fault..
