Comments/feedback: rielf@hotmail.com Chapter 7: Crimson (Handwritten notes) :Thoughts: {My notes} p.35 Goku Can't this thing go any faster!? Hakkai This is the top speed, I'm afraid.. Sanzou Even if the village gossip is correct, and this Youkai IS Jien, Shunrei can't very well just run into his arms. Goku What is she thinking!? Sanzou How am I supposed to know? Gojyo She isn't thinking at all. Except about the man she loves. p.36-37 Chapter Seven: Crimson p.38 {Little note by his head} Son Goku {scribble on the box} Pocky p.39 Shunrei (huff huff) -en.. Jien, where are you!? :I decided to believe in you with everything I have,: :To wait for you forever, if nessesary,: :and yet--: Village Women Some people were attacked by Youkai in the forest to the west. One of the attackers was Jien! p.40 Shunrei :That can't be true!!!: Jien! Jien! Where are you!? Shunrei Jien? Hakkai Eep. p.41 Hakkai This is as far as we can go with the jeep. This forest is thicker than I thought. Sanzou Let's split up. Gojyo and Hakkai, you go that way. Me and Goku will look over here. Gojyo Right. Hakkai The jeep will act as a landmark. Stay here, okay? Hakuryu {jeep} Kyuu. Gojyo Shunrei! p.42 Gojyo Shunrei.. :When I think about it, i've never been able to :stand a woman crying. :Because my mother... would always be crying when :she looked at me. :Was it because when she looked at me, she saw a :trace of the man she loved? :Or was it the phantom of the unknown human woman :she saw as she wept?: p.43 Gojyo :If my death would bring an end to my mother's tears.. :then that would be fine with me.: p.44 Gojyo :Brother..: Hakkai I must apologize. Gojyo Huh? Hakkai I told everyone about your brother. Gojyo No big deal. Hakkai Goku was really sulky. He REALLY doesn't like people keeping secrets from him. Gojyo Ch' Nosy little punk. You should just let people deal with their own shit, eh? Hakkai It's saying things like that, which gets people angry. Gojyo Well, it's 'cuz he's still just a kid, Goku.. Hakkai No. p.45 Hakkai Me. I'll get angry. I'm still just a kid too. It that not alright? Gojyo :What the-: Uh.. no.. :All this trying to act cool is making me out to be :the biggest kid of all..: ..geez.. Shunrei Kyaaaaaaaa!! p.46 Gojyo That's Shunrei!! Hakkai It came from the direction of the jeep! Blonde Youkai Troublesome little bitch. Can't run anymore, can you? Who would have thought we'd catch such a pretty girl? Our lucky day. p.47 Shunrei Noo!! Goku/Gojyo Shunrei!! What the-- Ugh. p.48 Hakkai That's an excellent example of a cross-counter! (Words about him: Not quite..) Sanzou What are you, the announcer? Gojyo Chimp! Look before you leap! Goku You should follow your own advice! Chinese Shirt Youkai -The hell are you guys?! Dark Hair Youkai You just came out of nowhere! Hakkai :They know nothing about us.: :It seems this time they aren't Kougaiji's assasins.: Sanzou So none of these are your boyfriend? (didn't think so) Shunrei No.. The build is the same, but it's not him. p.49 Shunrei Do you.. Do you know about Jien!? He's blonde, like you-- Gojyo :Blonde--?: Blonde Youkai Nope. The only blonde Youkai around here is me. Gojyo (heh-) :I see.. he's blonde.: Shunrei Oh.. :Jien...: Sanzou Shunrei..? Shunrei!! p.50 Hakkai It must be exhaustion. She ran all the way here, it must have been too much for her. Blonde Youkai Wait one friggin' second! Don't think you can just walk away with her! That woman is OURS! Unless you guys wanna cut her up and share. Goku The HELL are you- Gojyo (wave wave) That's enough for today. p.51 Gojyo I don't really feel like killin' anyone right now. Be a good boy, go home, shit, and sleep. Kay? Chinese Shirt Youkai Wha..!! Gojyo We're off, then. Hakkai Obasan must be quite worried by now. Blonde Youkai Are you trying to fuck with me!? Dark Hair Youkai --Hey, hold on!! That redhead.. p.52 Dark Haired Youkai I heard once.. That the fruit of the union between a human and a Youkai- the forbidden children, are born with crimson eyes and hair. Chinese Shirt Youkai Hah- so he's a filthy mongrel. Shunrei {flashback} :You know, Gojyo-san, I--: p.53 Shunrei :I hope for a world without racial boundries :between humans and Youkai: :I'll do anything to bring that even one day closer.: :Because if..: :If Jien and me have any children..: :I want them to be happy..: Blonde Youkai Is your hair red down there, too? Huh? Worthless mutt. p.54 Hakkai Now now. 'The mouth is the root of all evils'. Haven't you heard that? p.55 Hakkai But if by any chance you feel the need to continue, Please feel free to do so in hell. Blonde Youkai Yii! F-forgive me.. Help me.. Sanzou If you're going to apologize, you should've done it in the beginning. Moron. Gojyo (heh) p.56 Gojyo (Heh heh heh) -geez. You're a strange bunch. :Thoughts of my brother were always filled with guilt.: :He vanished, sparing my life, and in exchange,: :He must bear the sin of slaying his mother.: :And so I thought, if I should meet him, should I apologize?: :I thought about what I should say or do, but :I've quit all that.: :What I want to convey to him isn't an apology, or even gratitiude.: :Simply, myself, as I am, I want to extend to him: p.57 Gojyo :And that's the way I live my life.: Blonde Youkai -damn! p.58 Blonde Youkai Get 'em!! Gojyo What? Do you really wanna know that badly? p.59 Gojyo What colour it is 'down there'? p.60 Gojyo That's too bad. The only one who can find that out is a beautiful woman. Goku 's black! Completely black! (I saw in the bathroom) Gojyo Shyaddup. p.61 Shunrei ! Where am I!? :I'm back home..: :I went to the forest, and Gojyo and the rest saved me..: :And then...?: Obasan Oh, you're up I see. Shunrei Obasan! Where is everyone? Gojyo-san and.. Obasan Oh.. they left right away. p.62 Obasan They could have at least waited until you woke up.. Shunrei :How could they..: Obasan Oh no! You shouldn't be getting up yet! Shunrei But I.. I never thanked them or anything, after putting them through such trouble! What should I do, Obasan?! Obasan They didn't once think of you as troublesome. Yes, and also, they left a message with me, for you. Shunrei Huh? p.63 Obasan They are on a journey to find the cause of the disasters which plague Togenkyo. And so, for certain, very soon, Jien will be able to return to you. Shunrei Obasan Shunrei? Shunrei Gojyo-san told me.. A good woman doesn't cry. p.64 Shunrei :That which renewed my courage..: :Beautiful, sunset coloured eyes,: :A kind, gentle voice..: :If you knew, would you be jealous? ...Jien...: Goku Hmm.. so this wasn't Gojyo's brother? Gojyo Probably. My brother isn't blonde.. But anyway, it doesn't matter. p.65 Gojyo Somehow, I know inside that he's alive somewhere. I may run into him yet. But anyway, it's such a shame. There are no beautiful girls that aren't taken anymore. Sanzou What a load. Gojyo You know, I've never seen you show interest in women. It's sick I tell you, sick! Or.. are you a homo? (Oh no how sca-ry..) Sanzou Can I please SHOOT him? Goku Homo Sausage? {I use homo instead of gay because Goku says this.. Is this a brand? ^_^;} Hakkai If it's just once, he probably won't die. p.66 Goku (Hey!) The card from yesterday! You really did switch them, you slimy squid of a water demon!! Gojyo (Shyaddup) People don't like kids who drudge up things that happened long ago, monkey boy. Eh!? Sanzou No way. Somebody Yaaaaa!! Sanzou I'm really gonna shoot!! ***this is from http://www.rielf.fcpages.com***
