Sakura02: Yeah, when I was writing Shuei’s name I kept thinking of Bleach Shuuhei. Only this one isn’t as pretty :(

“Meika, cover your eyes.” Hakkai smiled nervously as the woman approached them. “May I ask who you are, Miss?”

The woman simply smiled as she took in the groups haggard appearance. She was unfazed when she felt someone tugging on her dress. She looked down at Meika. “Hello there. May I help you?”

Meika said nothing and instead looked up with woman’s dress. She squeaked and quickly ran over to Hakkai and hid behind him. “She has he parts! Are girls supposed to have boy parts?”

The person chuckled as she/he observed the group. “My, if you guys are having trouble here, you’re pretty pathetic.”

Gojyo snarled. “Who the fu—”

“Language!” Hakkai chided.

The man standing behind the she/he snarled as well. “Show some respect! This is the great Merciful Goddess!”

Meika blinked. “The who?”

Gojyo’s eyes widened as he looked down at Goku. “So, you fixed the monkey's power limiter?”

The Merciful Goddess nodded absently as she sauntered over to Sanzo’s unconscious body. “So, he’s the cause of all this trouble.” She looked down when she felt someone once again tugging on her dress. She smiled down at Meika and knelt to her level. “What does my darling little trouble maker need?”

“Can you fix ZoZo?” She asked. “Since you’re a goddess, you can make him better, right?”

“You are as cute as ever.” The Merciful Goddess pinched her cheek. “Of course I can fix him. Nothing’s impossible for me.”

Hakkai blinked and looked at the man. “Are all gods this narcissistic?”

The man chuckled nervously. “No…not really…”

The Merciful Goddess stood up and glared at Gojyo. “You! Let me use you!” Before Gojyo could protest, the Merciful Goddess kissed him.

Meika blinked and pointed at the scene. “HaHa, the shman is kissing JoJo!” She squeaked as Gojyo suddenly collapsed on the ground. “Are you okay, JoJo?”

“He’s fine.” The Merciful Goddess waved her hand dismissively. “I just took a good deal of blood from him.”

“Is that what you do when you kiss?” Meika asked. “Are you a vampire, JoJo? Do you take blood from all the ladies you kiss?” She blinked as the Merciful Goddess sauntered over to Sanzo and leaned towards him. “Ah! Why’s she gonna kiss ZoZo??”

“Meika, just cover your eyes.” Gojyo sighed as he placed his hands over her eyes. “We, as in Hakkai, are going to have a long talk about all of this later.”

After Sanzo subconsciously slapped the Merciful Goddess away, she stood up triumphantly. “Well, he’s fine now. You all need to hurry along now and complete your journey.” She went over to Meika and patted the small girl’s head. “You take good care of these boys now, Yanmei.”

Meika blinked as she shook Gojyo’s hand off from her eyes. “My name isn’t Yanmei. It’s Meika. Aren’t gods supposed to know everything?”

The Merciful Goddess chuckled. “Of course. You’re Meika now. Well, I’ve gotta go.” With that, she disappeared.

The group made their way back into the inn, Hakkai carrying an unconscious Sanzo back into his room. Goku grabbed a chair and sat beside the bed while Meika curled up with her back against Sanzo’s and stared at Goku. “Is ZoZo gonna wake up soon?”

“I hope so…” Goku said sadly.

Meika frowned. She hated seeing Goku so sad. He was the one out of the whole group that could always make her laugh and smile when she was sad. She sat up and gave Sanzo a kiss on top of his head before tackling Goku out of his chair.

Goku yelped in surprise. “What’re you doing, MeiMei?” He blinked at the upset look on the little girl’s face. “What’s wrong?”

“Stop being sad.” Meika ordered as she pulled on Goku’s cheeks. “When you’re sad, it makes me sad. I don’t like it. ZoZo would be mad at you for sulking so much.”

Goku sat up with Meika sitting in his lap. He smiled sadly at her. “I’m sorry…it’s just…Sanzo is always having to save me…it makes me feel useless.”

“How do you think I feel?” Meika pouted. “All of you have to take care of me. We just need to get stronger. So cheer up, okay?” She leaned up and pecked Goku on the lips. She frowned thoughtfully and ignored the startled look on Goku’s face. “Hm…that wasn’t so bad.”

“W-What was that for, MeiMei?” Goku stammered.

“Well, JoJo got all sick after the shman kissed him and ZoZo slapped the Goddess lady whenever she tried to kiss him. So I thought kissing might be disgusting. But JoJo likes kissing all the ladies so maybe you have to like the person to make kissing okay?” Meika tapped her chin thoughtfully.

Goku blinked before chuckling. He held Meika tightly to him and kissed her cheeks and forehead. “Thank you, MeiMei. Does that mean you like me?”

“Of course!” Meika shouted. “You’re my GoGo! I love you this much!” She held her arms out wide in emphasis. “and I love JoJo and ZoZo and HaHa!”

Hakkai poked his head into the room. “I’m going to make some dinner. Do you two want to help?”

Goku’s eyes lit up and he stood up with Meika in his arms. “Yeah!”

“Wait.” Meika wriggled out of Goku’s grip. “I’ll come help in a second.” She waited until both Hakkai and Goku left before going back over to Sanzo’s bed. She climbed back onto the bed. She stared at Sanzo’s back for a moment. “Please get better soon, ZoZo.” She leaned forward and kissed his cheek before climbing back out of the bed.

Time to stop! Will Sanzo get better? What about Rikudo? Tune in next time to find out! Reviews make me super happy and help me to plot so please leave one!
