F/X: Crash.
Sanzo: Men from the West... huh.
Gato: Hazel---
Hazel: Yes?
Gato: Those 3 people are not likely to be troublemakers. They don't act like those wild youk...
F/X: Thump
Gato: !!
Hazel: Do not interfere, Gato.
Hazel: You only need to care about protecting me, all right?
Gato: Aa... I understand.
Hazel: No matter what they do, it does not alter the facts. After all...
Youkai are youkai.
Hazel: Anyway, let's take a look at their skills, shall we?
===========
F/X: Frying.
Goku: Naa naa~ Hakkai can eat this can't he? Let's buy some!
Gojyo: Aa. We can't very well get out of this place until that guy recovers huh.
Goku: Precisely! Oba-chan, gimme 10 of this!
Gojyo: That is so not merely Hakkai's share...
Sanzo: We have to get back once we've bought the necessary stuffs. We can't get careless after yesterday's attack.
Goku: That a----in't no problem!
Gojyo: Yep. We can sense youki a mile away... DWAH!!?
F/X: Slash of chopper.
Gojyo: Look where you're swinging!
Goku: O... oba-chan?
Woman: ...kill... Kill.
Sanzo: ... ...!?
Gojyo: Goku, behind you!
Goku: Eh Tch!!?
I can't sense any youki... They're just like those attackers yesterday.
Gojyo: They still look like very-ordinary-townspeople to me!
Mob: Kill. The. Youkai. Kill. KILL.
Gojyo: They're asking for us -again-?
Sanzo: Yellow eyes.
Goku: ...Eh?
-----------
Hakkai: (coughing)
F/X: Knocking.
Hakkai: ---Yes?
Girl: (opens door) Sorry for disturbing. I brought you some water.
Hakkai: Ah... thank you for specially bringing me that.
Girl: It's okay. Why, you and Hazel-sama are the ones who saved everybody! Don't exert yourself, okay?
Hakkai: ...speaking of which, your father was too---
Girl: Yes, my father has completely recovered thanks to Hazel-sama's help. It really is a miracle, isn't it?
Hakkai: Is there anything changed about him since then? For example, his physical condition isn't too good?
Girl: Nope, it looks like there's absolutely nothing wrong with him. He's
so healthy it's as if yesterday had merely been a dream.
Hakkai: I see... That's good.
Girl: Right. Just call for me if you need anything!
Girl: ---Oh, if there's something changed about my father... it's got to be that his eyes have become yellow, I think?
F/X: Door closes.
/ ...Yellow eyes? /
/ Those attackers in the mountains yesterday have those too. /
/ And come to think of it, that huge man certainly has yellow eyes as well. /
/ Which means... /
F/X: Dizzy.
Hakkai: ... ...uwa.
Haa--- Forget it. (drops down on bed) Gojyo did say I exert myself too much.
F/X: Door creaks open.
Hakkai: ? Did you forget something? ---!!!
F/X: Crash of axe.
Hakkai: Tch!?
F/X: Whistle of blade.
F/X: Flings pillow.
Man: !!
F/X: Pillow slashed apart.
Hakkai: What... what's wrong, Master*? [*landlord]
Please calm down!
Man: Kill...
Kill the youkai.
Hakkai: !!
/ It is just as I thought /
/ The yellow-eyed "humans" who go around attacking youkai... /
/ ...they all are the very people whom Hazel revived...! /
-----------
Goku: Uwah!
~~~Bastards... What are y'all trying to do?!
Gojyo: At least if you give us a *reason*, we might be able to accept it...
Voice: Hey you!
Oi, what's the matter?! What are you doing... Oi!!
Gojyo: Wait a mo'... hadn't we seen these people somewhere before? Everyone here... aren't they those guys who'd died once yesterday?
/ This means...!! /
Sanzo: Oi, c'mon we're going back to the inn.
Goku: Hah?!
Gojyo: You bastard of a monk can you please first analyse our present situation before talking!!
-----------
F/X: Shatters.
Hakkai: Master, please return to your own self...
(is attacked) Tsk!!
/ It's no use /
/ I can't get through to him... /
Hakkai: I'm so sorry! (punches man)
Man: (clatters outside) Gaah---
F/X: Door slams.
F/X: Locks door. (gasping)
/ Is he being controlled? /
/ If only youkai are being targeted,
What is the purpose...? /
Hakkai: (thinks) /This is bad... The dizziness.../
F/X: Door hacked.
Hakkai: ---!!!
F/X: Vicious hacking.
Mob: Kill... youkai. Kill the youkai. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill.
/ They've gathered outside the door?! /
Hakkai: Tsk.
F/X: Door splintering.
Man: Youkai. Die.
Hakkai: ... ...!!
F/X: Door hacked down.
/ It's given way...!! /
F/X: Runs.
F/X: Crash.
