So, teh contest is four on four, our group against teh guy and his friends. Some time, and several bottles of liquor later, it's now 1 to 3, with Goku being down for teh count on our side. Sanzo and Goyjo are more than a bit buzzed, while Hakkai looks to be his normal self. In fact, after teh guy makes a snide comment, Hakkai asks teh bartender for something stronger. Goyjo makes a comment to Sanzo about never seeing Hakkai drunk, and Sanzo says "and you never will". Then, not content with losing teh game, teh idiot guy makes a remark about how pretty Sanzo is, which Sanzo answers by calling on his holy powers. Hakkai stops him in time, but teh idiot guy and his buddies take this as an invitation to start fighting. to be continuedHeh. I'm finally getting back to this! Before anything can get started, a strange smell permiates teh area and everyone falls asleep, except for Hakkai and Yaone. She tells him she put everyone to sleep because she didn't want any innocent people getting hurt while she tries to kill teh Sanzo group. She then reveals herself to be a youkai and working for Kougaiji. She attacks Hakkai with a spear, drawing first blood, then she knocks him though teh door to teh outdoors. Hakkai manages to take her weapon from her, so she resorts to small bombs, which Hakkai blocks with a chi sheild. teh other guys wake up and wonder why Hakkai is fighting with their waitress. Yaone now uses her last resort; she pulls out a switch and tells Hakkai that she has planted bombs in teh bar. She presses teh switch, but nothing happens. Hakkai shows her teh explosives and apologizes for finding and removing them. Yaone falls to her knees, appalled at having failed in her mission, and Hakkai apologizes, again, this time for fighting her. Then Yaone pulls out a knife and tries to kill herself, which triggers a nasty flashback for Hakkai. Before Yaone succeedes, a magical wind blows up and she vanishes. Hakkai looks up in amazment to see someone carrying Yaone. As teh man lands on a near-by rooftop, Yaone shouts out "Lord Kougaiji!". "So that's him!" teh Sanzo cohort realizes. Kou tells them that he's only here for Yaone, but Goku wants to have fun! Goku attacks, and Kou repells teh attack easily. Same goes for Gojyo and Hakkai. Then from behind Kougaiji a voice says "That'll do, pretty boy." and a gun is pressed to teh back of his head. It's Sanzo, who climbed up to teh roof while everyone else was fighting. He wants to know why Kougaiji wants them dead, Kou says it'll hafta wait, and vanishes with Yaone. Everyone is a bit releved, except for Goku, who's abosolutly estatic, reveling in how strong Kougaiji is and that "THIS IS GONNA BE teh BEST FIGHT EVER!" Elsewhere, Yaone tells Kou that she failed, and that she'll make up for her failure with her life. Kou then replies that he didn't think he had a subordinate stupid enough to throw away her life, then reminds her that she promised to follow him everywhere. Sometime later, Hakkai is in a thoughtful mood, and tells Sanzo that he's starting to remember things, not that he really forgot, not really. Sanzo asks Hakkai if he wants to leave to complete his revenge, but Hakkai declines. Then Goku and Goyjo bust through teh door, arguing as usual. Sanzo tells them they had better be quiet, as he's been suffering from a hangover for two day. Goyjo and Goku-"Yeegh! He's not kidding!" A few days later, teh Three Aspects receive a credit-card bill . . . . . . . . . .

Now for a little Saisuki fun! This takes place after teh guys cheer a girl up by, well, by acting teh way they always do! They get to stay teh night, but teh problem is, there's only one bed . . . . . : YES! One of my FAVORITE scenes from teh anime!!! Only small differences--both Hakkai AND Hakaru draw jokers, Sanzo ISN'T on teh bed when teh girl walks in [I think it was FUNNIER with him there!], and you hear Goyjo asking teh others, "Do you think she thinks I'm WEIRD, now!?" [He HAD tried to pick her up, earlier....]
