'$hit...None of the other women ever wore me off like that...Am I getting old, or something?...'
They cleaned up,re-dressed and when they were leaving the corridor, Sotona felt the red-heads' arm wrap itself around her waist.
"Yo! Leaving already?" one of the men Gojyo played with called the Kappa.
"Sorry, my girl came to pick me up."
"Your... How about she'd join us? You sure had quite some luck! I want to get even."
"Sorry, He's been out all day." Sotona laughed.
When the couple was near the exit, a bit of conversation held by three men reached their ears.
"So, the whore likes dirty half-breeds,huh? Scum like him should just die."
Sotona tensed stopping in her tracks and looked in the direction where the voice came from. She stiffly approached them with Gojyo right behind her.
"Repeat what you said just now."
The three men were eyeing her with smirks plastered on their faces.
"So, you're not only stinking retards but cowards,too?"
"What did you say, you slut?!?"
Sotona glanced in the direction of the bar.
"If you're so tough, we can take it outside." she suggested.
Receiving no answer, she grabbed the collar of one of the man's' shirt and dragged him out with his friends and Gojyo behind. The man was so shocked, he didn't react until his face landed in a pool of mud outside the bar. The rain didn't lighten up even now.
"Gojyo, can I have them?"
"Be my guest. Call me, if you'll need any help." the Kappa chuckled leaning against the wall and lighting a fag.
Sotona lunched herself at one of the men, hitting him hard in the face and then the side of the head with her elbow. She grasped the shirt on his shoulders and his hair and kicked him with full swing in the stomach and then face finishing him off with a rabbit punch in the neck. The two other men jumped up to her but she turned to one of them, hit his heads' side with her elbow, twisted him around digging her nails into his eyes and creating a shield of his arched body against the other man. She pushed the whining body onto the other man and as he was concentrated on his companion, she was already next to him and punched him square in the jaw. The three men were so terrified, they run away screaming: "sick whore" and "monster".
"Monster,huh?" she looked at her hands covered in blood and smirked.
She came up to the nearest rain-pipe and washed her hands in the stream of the pouring rain water. Gojyo watched the whole thing with a quirked eyebrow.
'Funny. She always gets so fired up when trash like that comes along.'
Sotona stood up and smiled to him.
"Happy,baby?" he asked.
"Yep. It turns out to be quite a pleasant end f the day." they laughed and made their way to the inn.
>>>>End of Gojyo's POV
"It's late. Where the hell are they?" Doku shifted uncomfortably in his chair staring at the door.
He was waiting with the Sanzo-ikkou so that he could explain the misunderstanding to his brother.
"I'm sure they'll be back any minute now."
Even though Hakkai said that adding a reassuring smile, he did not quite believe his own words. Hakkai was worried equally for both of his friends. In the state Gojyo was in, he was very likely to cause a fight. As for Berry-san, well, she left looking like THAT and it was obvious she'll draw attention. It wasn't like they couldn't take care of themselves,still, Hakkai couldn't help but worry.
Just as he set cups with tea for Sanzo, Doku, Goku and himself they heard laughter and the door opened.
"You're awful,Gojyo." Sotona snickered slapping the red-heads arm playfully.
"I swear! That guy was drooling!" Gojyo laughed closing the door behind them and placing his hand on Sotona's hip.
The couple was greeted by dumb folded stares. Hakkai and Doku exchanged quizzical looks. Even Sanzo glanced up from his newspaper. The priest stood up and whacked both Gojyo and Berry on the head with his paper fan.
"What was that for?!?" asked Gojyo.
"For being late for dinner." Sanzo informed them sitting down and going to his newspaper.
"I wanted to ask: 'No "Hello."?' but thinking it over, I don't want any more welcomes from you,Sanzo. Besides, he's the one who was late fro dinner,not me!" Sotona whined, rubbing her sore head.
"Are you two alright?" Hakkai inquired looking at Sotona worried.
Berry lifted her hands the drew so much of Hakkai's attention and noticed bits of blood were still on her hands.
"Yeah, we're cool. Just had a little run-in with few idiots." she laughed washing her hands in the sink.
"Got any beer,Hakkai?"
"Y-yes, Gojyo." the man said getting to his feet.
"Sit, Hakkai. I'll get it, since I'm already up." Sotona sighed "Anyone else?"
When everyone stayed quiet she shrugged and took two bottles from the fridge and laid the on the table. Gojyo grabbed her arm and sat her on his lap. He and Sotona both sipped their beers looking like innocent angels.
"Where were you?" Goku whined. He was obviously bored the whole day.
"He," Sotona said " was playing poker, and I had a bit of a spin on the dance floor."
"Yeah, the whole bar was staring at her." Gojyo grinned.
"Not true!"
"They did!"
"How do you know? You had your eyes plastered to my as$ the whole time!"
"I did not!"
"Did to!"
"Did not!!"
The whole room stared at the bickering couple until Sanzo had enough and started shooting at them 'to shut the f*cking hell up!". Hakkai and Doku smiled at each other. They didn't know what happened but they were sure that that days morning was left as nothing but a bad memory.
Doku kept gazing at the couple and he was truly happy the whole misunderstanding was cleared. Despite that, he wondered why, if everything turned out all right, did he have that strange feeling in his chest.
